One of my favourite things about tma is how utterly broken everyone is. As someone that loves to identify with characters (it helps me understand their motives as I struggle a lot with understanding other people’s thoughts and feelings) I immediately fell in love with Martin. His relationship with depression and anxiety is so well done. The social withdrawal and hopelessness he constantly deals with- even more so after he and Jon got together and it’s still there, just in a completely different way. Jon’s one of the most broken people I’ve ever seen. The constant abuse, manipulation and control clearly takes a toll on him and it’s just both so incredibly sad and weirdly comforting. There’s something about being able to see parts of yourself in such a broken character who’s still being loved and cherished and trying their best that makes me feel so much
