thank u helen for your input

can’t stop thinking about what the vibes must have been like in the institute during the Gertrude Era…where’s the archivist? who knows, but at any moment she could burst in and announce that A), she’s just averted the apocalypse again, or B), she’s seeking permission to set her assistant on fire 

your Jon design makes my life better, i need you to know that

thank you!! I love him and he’s really fun to draw, here’s a quick jon doodle (ft the admiral) for you

hi hello just found this blog and gosh goodness the way you use colors and how your martin and jon designs are these sweet bright spots amid the absolute nightmare chaos of the show is really fantastic !! thank u for bringing the joy and kindness of these characters to their disaster world so carefully through your designs and all the little details. the first time I saw jons glasses chain i gasped. also martin as a supportive an stressed man is so clear via colors and posture its lovely

slskjalkjsl anon are you TRYING to make my cry?? cause I’m gonna cry, this is TOO nice and I canNOT handle it :’) For real though, thank you so much, I have a lot of fun designing the characters and I’m so glad people like them <33

“…I’d never had my lungs try to burn me alive from the inside out before”

(Look, you can’t just show me two women, go “yeah their souls were bound together”, and expect me not to be obsessed) 

martin WILL sit on the horrible rotting couch of extinction and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop him 

this ep made me realize just how much I missed hearing basira

continuing my theme of posts that are just Gertrude Being an Incredibly Difficult Archivist 

What The Ghost promo posters for when georgie and melanie, as the producers of the earth’s single remaining entertainment broadcast, inevitably become apocalypse celebrities 

As much as I’m enjoying the fifth season of tma I can’t help but miss the dynamic of earlier seasons, where instead of being holed up in a suitably villainous tower the eldritch monster was also just their vaguely terrible corporate boss and Jon would go into his office and yell at him 

open flame in the archives

(obsessed with the concept of gertrude being a little on fire inside all the time due to her connection w/ agnes, combined with the idea that entity marks would be visible to agents of beholding) 

i think archivist!sasha AUs are super cool but i’ve also seen the concept of them each being so eye-aligned that they both accidentally end up archivists, and I think that’s really fun

POV: you’re sasha and u just showed up to your first day of work in the archives
