I've never been so suspicious in my life.

Ok but like low-key, I stand Mikaele Salesa:
- he runs his ship through trust rather than respect
- he keeps doing these artifact runs even though he knows the risks
- he cares enough about his crew to not let them accidentally die from the artifacts
It's not his fault people are stupid with the spooky relics he sells them
3, jm? :o
#3 - writing a love letter but keeping it to themselves
cheesed the prompt a little bit but it still kinda works!
_____________
The train rattled and Jon's pen slid across the notebook page, slicing his last sentence in two. Growling in frustration, he carefully drew two straight, deliberate lines through the words, and wrote them again. As a rule he liked to keep his writing neat and even, and this letter in particular he wanted to look nice, despite the inconvenient spot he was in.
He hadn't had much of a choice. The idea to write the letter had come to him while they were all standing on the platform back in London, and he knew there'd be no time once they arrived at Great Yarmouth. Besides, though the train was loud and shaky it was a night train, and the others were fast asleep in their seats, giving Jon the privacy he needed to really think about what he wanted to say to Martin.
Because, of course, the letter was for Martin. He was trying to use it to say everything he hadn't known how to say these past few months, things that Martin deserved to hear. Things he'd intended on telling Martin once they got back--because they would be getting back, Jon wouldn't entertain the alternative--but his mind had kept turning the words over and over in his head, not letting him alone, and so he'd put pen to paper at the first opportunity. He wanted to make the words tangible, real things, that he could show to Martin and make him understand.
As he finished up the last sentence, Jon turned back to the previous page in his notebook and read the letter through.
So I had a thought..
The phrase "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is a real people divider. Like, either you have it proudly displayed on the wall in your kitchen, or you are revolted every time you hear it.
I think the phrase is true, but we forget to talk about what happens in between something non-leathal-bad happening, and the being stronger.
It's not just magically, "Oh no, something horrible happened that completed shattered my world, but now I'm stronger!". It's the work that happens after the Happening that ultimately makes you stronger. Its sitting with your feelings in a kiddie pool of emotional diarrhea, and not drowning in it.
Idk, I wish I was more eloquent in the subject but I just couldn't shake this thought..
the thing about jonathan sims, head archivist of the magnus institute, london, is that he CAN plan things out very well (see how he took down trevor and helen), but when he experiences a Strong Emotion he just does whatever feels right in the moment, consequences be damned. found a tiny scrap of hope amidst the worst year of your life? martin pls blind urself and elope with me right now. found out your spooky office job has a murderer running around who might want you dead? time to photograph people’s houses i guess. guy who was nice to you one time is begging for his life? i panicked, you’re a torturer now.
people like to act like he’s EITHER cold and calculating OR stupid and reckless, but honestly hes just a very smart person who also happens to feel So Much, all the time, and is completely unable to resist those feelings.
okay actually thinking about this, i wonder if this informed how the eyepocalypse works. the whole “dream logic” thing is very in line with how jon tends to respond to his own fears anyway. if martin had been the archivist instead, would the eyepocalypse look very different? would martin have looked very different? or would he simply have been incompatible?
like. if there’s any connection at all, i guess i’m wondering if a) its something in the Archive influencing Jon, b) something in Jon influencing the Fears, c) a little bit of both, or d) something in jon that aligns with the fears, that the whole ritual would have failed without
#like i know the fears in general are pretty dream-logic-y #but still some statements are more feelings based than others based on the victims worldview#like in Desecrated Host theres really concrete rules#bc the priest needed to feel like he COULDVE solved it but DIDNT to really suffer#whereas jon’s biggest fear is that there is no rules at all. that he never had a chance no matter what#arguably bc he was first traumatized as a child and because of that will always perceive these things through that lens
hey this is actually one of the most interesting things ive ever said about tma. i feel like if anyone else were the lynchpin the whole thing would’ve looked completely different. we know the categories of the fears are mostly made up and only continue to be relevant because they’re already a part of the protagonists’ worldview; i bet that every “rule” in the eyepocalypse, and maybe the entire show, was solely dependent on the fact that jon was the one experiencing it. if it’s dream-logic, then he’s the dreamer.
This right here is honestly genius
Burning some steel wool [x]

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS OMG
I always troll my friends with this
This sounds like it’s being sung by a passive-aggressive 1920s radio host wearing a very dapper suit and threatening me with a cartoonishly small pistol, bearing a large grin on his face that indicates that he will not hesitate to put a hole in my forehead, not for a second
the actual artist is Max Raabe and the Palast Orchester, btw.
yall might also be interested in his cover of oops, i did it again:
