A week after arriving Somewhere Else -
Martin stares solemnly at Jon's wound with tears in his eyes, Jon holds him and murmurs reassurances, promising he doesn't blame him, both of them barely whispering as if they're afraid to speak of it too loudly.
7+ years after arriving Somewhere Else -
Jon: (Trying to get out of doing the laundry) C'mon YOU KILLED ME
Martin: AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN IF I HAVE TO WASH MORE OF YOUR BLOODY SOCKS
#jon: martin i simply cannot do the dishes#martin (brandishing a knife): i killed you once and i'll do it again#jon: maybe if we kill me enough we'll end up in a world with no dishes
Hi I couldn’t help it and made a dumb comic that I spent way too much time on based on the text post lol.
god i wish
[ID: A three-panel lineart comic of S4 and S1 Jon from TMA. It uses pasted excerpts from the Season 4 TMA Q&A as dialogue. Panel 1 reads, “Alex / K, this one is from [seb]: If John could tell his season-one-self something what would it be?“ Below is S1 Jon, looking confused and pausing mid-recording. S4 Jon steps out of a door with a spiral background, wearing a backpack and duffel bag. In panel 2, S4 Jon puts his hands on S1 Jon’s shoulders and tells him seriously, “Uh, run… away? Just go away? You’ve- you’ve made some mistakes.” In the final panel, a glaring S4 Jon picks a scared-looking S1 Jon up and adds forcefully, “Also, leave Martin alone!“
Character designs: S1 Jon is thin and angular. He has neck-length wavy hair, a goatee, and glasses and wears a dress shirt, tie, and vest. S4 Jon has longer hair in a bun, glasses, worm scars, and a fuller beard and mustache. He wears a sweater and jacket. /end ID]
not much in the way of hairdressers on the village ourskirts
[ID: Black and white line art of Jon and Mrtin doing each other’s hair in the safehouse. Martin is a fat white man with hair that starts off in a short ponytail, and Jon is a thin brown man with long hair. In the first image, Jon smiles as Martin does his hair in a loose braid with half of it tied up. Martin smiles, “Just don’t tell me later I didn’t warn you it it looks bad-” Jon interrupts with a content smile, “- and I’ve told you already that I don’t really care, Martin.”
The next two images are a comic. Jon is in the middle of cutting Martin’s hair, which is now short. Jon holds some between his fingers and raises his eyebrows. “Shorter? You’re sure?” Martin looks away with a blush. In the next panel, Martin’s hair is now even shorter and uneven at the front. Jon looks worried as his hands come up to cup Martin’s cheek and head, and he says, “If you just wanted me to touch your hair you could have simply told me so.” Martin smiles up at him with a slightly rueful closed-eye smile and says, “It’s okay, I like how it looks.” End ID]
first morning together in the safe house, after the months of the lonely
ID: A sketchy black and white digital comic of Jon and Martin from the Magnus Archives. Jon is a thin man with tan skin long, wavy hair and small scars across his face, wearing a light T-shirt. Martin is a pale, fat man with short fluffy hair and stubble, wearing a darker shirt.
Jon, in darkness, wakes up slowly as morning light starts to shine on him. Martin is staring at him, wide-eyed, the light from the window behind him framing his face. They both stare at each other for a moment, and each opens their mouths to speak at the same time, before stopping and then bursting into laughter, Jon holding onto Martin’s arm. Jon holds his hand and they smile fondly at each other, both saying “Hi.”

i think i probably haaaaalf-fulfilled both of these……….set in that “au” i posted about a million years ago where the world is saved and everyone makes it to their 40s. i think john and martin would realize they haven’t had an actual wedding despite having considered themselves married for years…it’s a super small event and georgie officiates it b/c it’s MY party and *I* get to choose who’s ordained
[id: a series of black-and-white illustrations. georgie, a fat woman with short curly hair, is holding a piece of paper and saying, “ok, so we’ve settled that you don’t like ‘bride’ or ‘groom’ — is there something else i can use for you in the vows?” sitting across from her, jon, a thin nonbinary person with short hair, stubble, and glasses, says with a hand over his chest, “'the archives’ is gender-neutral.” martin, who is tall and chubby with glasses, stubble, and curly hair in a side bun, yells, “shut your terrible mouth.” jon continues, eyes glowing as a sinister grin crosses his face, “yes… submit yourslf, body and soul, to the watcher, gaze into its many and unblinking eyes – you may now kiss… the archives!!” martin, grimacing, says, “yeeeah i’m having second thoughts about skipping the prenup.” on the opposite couch, georgie says, “so we’ll go with ‘jackass,’ then.” beside her, a grinning melanie, who is thin with wavy hair in a ponytail and heart-shaped sunglasses, says, “hey, now there’s an idea.”
beneath is a drawing of martin and jon on their own. they are dressed up for the wedding, martin in a business casual sort of outfit with the shirt open to show a tank top or binder, and jon in a loose dress and black leggings. martin is holding jon in a bridal carry, and both are beaming, tears at the coners of martin’s eyes. jon is flinging back a wine glass.
underneath are two asks: “Martin scooping Jon off his feet [flushed emoji” from @/super-lisa and “Idk if ur still doing art requests (and if not, thank you for doing them for so long, and i love your art!!!) but if you are, would you do jon/martin’s first dance at their wedding? I’d love to see your take on their wedding fashion :)” from @/hundred-separate-lines. /end id.]
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen omg

this post is about jonathan sims

i was NOT fucking prepared for anyone to say ELIAS
My favourite type of TMA art is depictions of Jon in objectively horrifying contexts, where he just also happens to be wearing an ace ring. It’s entirely irrelevant to the actual context of the art but it’s just been thrown in there for fun. It makes my brain go full spongebob meme, “Oh no, Jon is getting kidnapped… With an ace ring!” “Oh no, Jon is being manipulated by forces beyond his comprehension… With an ace ring!” “Oh no, Jon is begging for his boyfriend to mercifully kill him… With an ace ring!”
And of course, for Twice as Bright
[ID: Two screenshots of Spongebob, clutching a burnt hand, with text edited to read “Jude burned my hand!!! With an ace ring”]
When Jon designs have a circle around his middle finger that’s less burnt than the rest because the ring was in the way during the handshake? I lose my mind
diversity win! the man suffering unimaginable trauma is asexual!
#diversity win the ace ring slightly protects part of your hand from being burned beyond recognition#or more realistically#diversity win the ace ring gets grafted into your skin because of the heat
Thank you Sahar for being hilarious both on the post and in the tags. Losing it over the idea of Jon waking up Somewhere Else and the doctors from when he’s been rushed to hospital are like “Mr Sims we managed to remove your ring as protocol for surgery but we feel that you should know, in the extensive damage done to your hand it had became partially embedded in the skin” which he’s all very surprised by but Martin.
Martin just. “But. But Jon. You got that injury two years ago. You didn’t do anything to your hand at the Panopticon. How would. How did… Jon. Jon. Did… Did you not even try to take your ring off for two years?”
“M.. Maybe? I didn’t really notice! I don’t tend to take it off, you know I sleep with it on-” “In the shower?? In the shower Jon??” “I guess?? I tend to forget I’m wearing it half the time-” “JON-” “I had other concerns okay!”
DKSKSKS yes
Also I love this concept because it implies that when Jon was in a coma the doctors just left it on him because. Might as well
this man is not breathing and has no heartbeat but his brain is still working and also this ring has been grafted into his — you know what. Whatever
Y’know. I’m gonna be honest. I forgot about the coma. That’s on me. But it feels in character to say Jon did too.
So I've compiled a short list of the known recordings where Gertrude took live statement (which were not written and read out by her):
Episode 53- Walter Heller telling the story (in 1997) where he found an Archivist and an Archive in Alexanderia during WWII. A few months later there was an explosion in the vicinity, presumably by Gertrude's hands.
Episode 62- Mary Keay visiting Gertrude in July 3, 2008 to give her a 'gift' (Eric Delano's page) and a statement about the skin book and how she acquired it when she was young.
Episode 130- Lucia Wright in December 2008 telling her story of her encounter with a Flesh ritual run by Tom Haan (throwing truckloads of meat into a huge pit in Istanbul) that was stopped by an explosion caused once again by Gertrude.
Episode 145- Arthur Nolan pays Gertrude a visit in February 2009 and she out plays him and extracts a statement from him about raising Agnes Montague.
Episode 154- Eric Delano's ghost in July 21, 2008 telling her how to quit the institute and his story with Mary Keay.
It seems that for the most part, other than those who came to her to actively give a statement like Mary and Arthur, Gertrude tended not to take live statements.
Unless she had a very specific goal in mind of course.
With Eric, once she realized it was him, she mainly talked to him to get his secret on how to quit the archives. He asked her to take a statement as payment. With Lucia she wanted to make sure no survivor witnessed her sabotaging the Flesh ritual. And with Walter she wanted his help in locating an ancient archive and confirming her theory of the Archivist as a consistent Beholding role throughout history.
My theory is that she wanted to take a live statement from Lucia and Walter for an additional, very specific reason. She could have let them give her a written statement to get the information it seems she needed, since they have the same truth telling effect that talking does. With Lucia all she needed was for her to see Gertrude's face and recognize her and Walter was still unsure of the location even while talking to her so writing it down and then going over the maps with her as he did later would have yielded the same results.
She knew what live statements do. How they cause long term effects of nightmares both for them and for her. She didn't need to condemn them to such fate if that's all she took from them.
Unless getting those dreams was her main purpose. Imagine her appearing in Walter's dreams, walking with him through Alexanderia's alleys and knowing the location she needed to explode through first person sight. Imagine her standing next to Lucia as she carried meat from the trucks to the pits, knowing exactly who she saw and if Gertrude was actually seen by her.
Gertrude was calculative to the extreme and did everything for a reason. My theory is that she took these live statements because they gave her the dreams, because the dream were extremely useful in finding out that extra bit of reliable information she needed.
Just like with her assistants, she was willing to sacrifice her own humanity when she felt she had no other choice.
“martin says the same thing.”
now im imagining how that convo would have gone… jon apologizing for something mundane out of habit and martin putting down his pen or whatever he was busy with and going “JON. you don’t have to apologize for everything. it’s okay!! it’s not your fault! like, in general?! and sometimes you just have to, to look someone in the eye and- just, just puff up your chest–” here he actually puffs up his chest, looking painfully sweet and brave– “and be like, ‘yeah, what are YOU going to do about it?’ you’re always just…. so sad all the time. like everything is your fault somehow? and it’s not!!!” with fire aglow in his cheeks and eyes
jon looking at him with astonished fondness throughout this entire tirade, and then breaking into the most besotted, unbearably sappy grin, “and what about the time you apologized to the table for bumping into it?”
“that was- that was different, jon, it wasn’t-”
“next time you should tell it who’s boss, maybe give it a few more knocks-”
“jon!! i’m serious!!”
My favourite type of TMA art is depictions of Jon in objectively horrifying contexts, where he just also happens to be wearing an ace ring.
