Not to be on the Jon defense squad but reading thru the transcripts in past episodes where Martin is yelling at Jon to “use his power” to “make things better” and to kill all the avatars they come across while Jon refuses because he doesnt like how it makes him feel is not making Martin look good in the argument in todays episode asdfghj like martin…. i love you dearly but what the fuck lmao???

Like look at this bit from right after they met Callum in Night Night where Martin was pressuring Jon to kill the dark domain’s avatar not knowing it was Callum…. Like Martin….. is this u??? 

Like Martin i really do love you but im begging you to admit you dont know what to do rather than get mad at Jon when he tells you harsh truths. Like i do agree with him that Jon’s plan wouldnt have worked and that it was a shitty idea but being so cruel and calling him names and being contradictory is NOT where its at. Especially after he’s been saying this for the entire season…

[image ID:  Unofficial transcript from TMA 173 Night Night:

Martin:  See what, Jon; what am I supposed to see? That you don’t want to kill a–thirteen year old kid?  Big revelation.

Archivist:  I don’t know what you want me to do.

Martin:  I want you to use your power.  I want you to help them; I want you to make things better!

Archivist:  There is no better anymore.

Martin:  (increasing in volume, emotion)  You keep–saying that, and I hate it!

Archivist:  (also giving in to the argument)  I keep saying it because it keeps being true; you know that!

@dathen: #this is a huge example of ‘you can understand why a character is hurt and scared but that doesn’t make what they say not harmful’#him accusing Jon of ‘liking making others scream for once’ when Jon was hesitant and scared of himself from the start#and Martin batted down his worries with 'no I think you’re good’ and gave him a hard time whenever Jon hesitated to kill someone#NOT the kind of person with standing to give Jon a hard time for 'enjoying his power too much’#I legit had people asking me if they misremembered old episodes bc they couldn’t figure out what Martin was referring to#it’s like Melanie’s 'everyone acts like I should sympathize with Jon more!!’ sldfkjf#anyway Martin honey you’re projecting and comparing Jon to Jonah is a low blow reminiscent of season 3 Tim let’s not go there
