“I am glad you are here with me. Here, at the end of all things.”
I couldn’t sleep so I decided I wanted to make my own goodbye piece for TMA. I could say a lot about how Jon meant a lot to me as a person who’s had to come to terms with learning they have a trauma, yes I know it’s a grim soufflé but this show has made me happy for a while.
And the Wild Things cried, “Oh please don’t go— We’ll eat you up, we love you so.”
wait no hold on a second i’m going to miss them
not ready to say goodbye
those days - they're long gone.
at the end of all things
tma post canon au idea that i came up with IMMEDIATELY after listening to 200 while chatting with @rinnaden:
you know all that fan content of monster jon? i had this image of martin stabbing jon and just…tape spurting out. jon unraveling and wrapping around the two of them and carrying them along the web, to one of the fear’s new worlds. they wake up in the parking lot behind a convenience store that stands where the magnus archive once stood.
(possibly when one of the cashiers calls the cops on the two bloody, dirty, likely homeless men sleeping in a parking spot.)
so they’re in a new world. but the entities are still here, so i’m thinking that jon does have some access to the eye. like obviously not apocalypse powers, and the eye’s hold is new and weak here, so we’re talking early days. (either that or jon letting martin stab him counted as a rejection of the eye and he’s wholly himself, which would be a huge pain but quite interesting in itself.
point is, dumb thing that the eye is, it doesn’t hold grudges against either of them for…you know…everything…so jon’s able to figure out how to get them some papers and ids and etc.
so now the question is–the entities are here. nobody but them knows about them…
do they do anything?
martin, at this point, is ready to torch the entire world if it gives jon one less thing to sacrifice himself for, and maybe jon is willing to go along with that for a while out everything that happened…but massive guilt complexes don’t just disappear. jon definitely is gonna feel some responsibility for everything that happened. and this new world is pretty much defenseless. surely, they should try to help this world?
what i’m picturing is sort of a long, fun fic where jon and martin go on lots of adventures and get wrapped up in conspiracies as they try to help this world get ahead of the entity problem, via finding the entities’ new seats of power and destroying them, trying to convince avatars to stay away, spreading misinformation about any ideas for rituals.
Keep reading
it occurs to me that the real danger here would be anyone who figured out the magnus archives is real, though, huh. because as soon as you’ve got that...you have a bunch of people with all the information they need.
hmmm yeah i might need to rethink this.

tma 200 thoughts
tma 200 was....everything i thought it would be, in a lot of ways. it felt right. i think a lot of people knew that jon was absolutely gonna sneak up there.
I JUST WANTED ONE OF THE BOYS TO LIVE. I JUST WANTED TO KNOW....
HHH but okay, les go:
honestly this was kind of perfect because both options made sense thematically. jon taking jonah’s spot made perfect sense for his character and the general direction of the story, but the magnus archives has always operated on a principle of the listener of a spooky story quickly becoming its next victim--this is basically spelled out at the end of season one, with the magnus archives itself under attack. so the natural step is to have the listeners of the podcast, us ourselves, now the victims! we’re not safe, either! yes yes yes so this ending fits perfectly! we get both!
fear entity backstory! of course! how else to end it!?
i’ve seen some folks talking about how jon’s biggest fear was becoming a mystery, and he did, and yeah that’s poetic and beautiful and horribly ironic in the best way and is an entirely legitimate way of reading the text, yes yes yes, but i’d like to propose an alternate reading.
when jon said that in season one, it was in the process of him finally breaking open from being a mystery--a stuffy, stiff man who sat in an office and insistently looked down from his high horse on all the cockamanie ghost stories coming his way. he was detached from his coworkers, showed little sympathy to the victims of the statements. nothing about him made sense.
jon’s journey throughout this series cracked him open like an egg. maybe it took an endless reel of trauma, but the outcome doesn’t change--we still have a man who is and was known, who tried to connect with other people. just because daisy is dead, does that mean their relationship meant nothing? and most people in the world saw nothing but the terrifying archivist, but basira and georgie and melanie, as often as they failed to connect and communicate with jon, knew him, they knew a lot of what he went through, and they knew how much he tried.
and for god’s sake, he died in the arms of a man who walked with him through the apocalypse, who loved him enough to damn a thousand worlds for him and then refused to leave him to die alone when that didn’t work out. they each died in the arms of man who utterly knew and loved the other. martin knew jon wouldn’t be able to resist sacrificing himself. jon knew martin was strong enough to kill him. and what they don’t know...i mean, fuck, what does knowing even matter? they loved each other. they weren’t a mystery to each other.
look, they’ll never know what happened to jon or martin. neither will we. but i think a lot of people in the world live and die and leave a legacy that’s a lot lonelier, less loved, and more closed off than jon did.
please i just want him to have a bodycount
this is so cute and so fucking curssssseeddddd
one way or another. together.
ohhhh shit this ain’t okay. jon’s smile, martin’s expression, that shaking hand--one second before disaster. they’re so worn down. this is the end. i can practically see it moving in front of me.
@rinnaden, get in here, u seeing this shit
It’s been a long road, from the beginning to the end
(Full disclosure: drew this before I heard the episode)
what we REALLY need is a time travel fic where jon or martin just
smacks the job applications out of jon’s hand
martin’s hand
everyone’s hand
guys just get out while you can working at the magus archives will end the world and destroy your life and you will die being stabbed/stabbing your beautiful boyfriend as the world collapses around you and YES that is aesthetic as hell but it’s not worth it
After the ending in MAG 200 today, I’m just gonna put this moment from MAG 186 here to remind everyone cause it’s the first thing I thought of when I finished it.
@rinnaden
this is what you were talking about yeah. mARTIN WHY COULDN’T YOU JUST REVERSE THOSE TWO LAST THINGS. KISS AFTER SAVING WORLD. A F T E R
