So when Jesus says “one of you will betray me” to his friends it’s proof of his wisdom and cleaevoyance but when Jonathan Sims, head archivist of the Magnus Institute-

Yes he acted crazy, you would too

#tim stans will call jon insane and evil for looking for evidence and trying to figure shit out#when there were not one but two (2) insane murderers in his workplace#like??????#he was literally right#its not his fault he was bad at narrowing shit down#like he was literally up against a supernatural memory-altering bodysnatcher#with who knows how many hundreds of years of experience in making people paranoid#and an eldritch capitalist#with an evil monopoly mustache#the ability to read minds and therefore tactfully shift jons paranoia elswhere#and ALSO hundreds of years gaslighting practice#all that being said#i still love tim#but jon was not out of line

you forgot these in the tags

“i wanna scream / cut you up like you did me” —“fences” by destroy boys

i kept seeing moth!jon art, and then i re-listened to episode 106, and when elias mentioned that melanie’s father used to call her ‘little moth’ something clicked in my head so i made this! i don’t really consider myself a visual artist but i had fun with this and wanted to share it.

I can’t help but feel like a lot of the tma fandom’s interaction with the source is kind of like. jonny had made like this big tragic thing and we all bought the dolls and keep playing make pretend of them falling in love with each other

jonny: but aren’t you gonna…..pay attention to the thing I made?

us, making the s1 archives gang kiss each other: sorry what? can’t hear you! they’re all in love!

The real reason @jonnywaistcoat won’t read fanfiction… KEESES

People think I’m so much more precious about my characters than I actually am. I mean, I’m happy to hack up, burn and break my toys - why would I mind folks borrowing them to make them kiss?

How dare you hide these gems in the tags Jonny >:(

jonathan sims is a staunch atheist who also believes that when he dies he’s going to hell

As much as it isn’t fun to hear Jon yelling at Martin, the end part of Mag 56 is so hilarious to me.

Listen, there is NO evidence to support Martin’s claim about lying on his CV, and frankly it’s kind of a weak cover story. You are required to show proof of your qualifications when you get a new job on the strength of them - not to mention ID - and even though on a relisten we know Martin’s telling the truth and that Elias has his own reasons for hiring Martin, Jon doesn’t know any of that. There’s nothing to back up Martin’s story and given how paranoid Jon’s been since Prentiss, not to mention the fact that his specific concerns about Martin were that he might be hiding his own cunning behind the image of someone bumbling and soft (Jonathan “right for the wrong reasons” Sims strikes again) it is wild to me that he accepts this so quickly.

It’s almost as though he’s eager for Martin to be innocent, even though everything he’s previously said about him would indicate that he’d rather it was Martin than Tim or Sasha, the assistants he respects professionally and likes on a personal level. It’s so easy to picture him just blue-screening while poor Martin sits there expecting to be fired/screamed at again.

Martin: Okay, that’s the truth, do your worst. Jon? Jon??

Jon, internally: Martin’s innocent Martin lied to Elias but not me Martin didn’t kill Gertrude Martin’s safe Martin’s still my friend Martin doesn’t want me dead

Martin: Jon?

Jon, internally: MartinMartinMartinMartin

“apologist.” “critical.” y’all are doing too much. when my favorite characters do evil reprehensible shit I simply don’t fucking care cause it’s not real

#a while back i saw a whole thing about how we needed to acknowledge something bad a character did#and after a point i was like why? is he real? is he running for senator?

stonefruitz:

actually umm i hate jon’s grandmother soooo much like. jon was like “yeah my grandmother resented having me in her house and made me feel like i was a burden for (checks notes) becoming an orphan before elementary school and daring to behave like a child. this is my fault tho and she was right”
