That line in S5 where Jon tells Martin they probably don’t even like each other in other universes and it took 5 season of trauma to get to that point made me sad

OK but unless they talked about this twice in season 5 and I have completely forgotten the first conversation they had about it, this is wrong? This is actually the opposite of what happened?

In episode 199 Jon thought they could have gotten together without all the trauma.


A screenshot from the transcript of TMA 199. It reads as follows: "ARCHIVIST Sometimes… I imagine if none of this had happened. If we had just… met. Been together, without… all of this. MARTIN [Softly] Me, too. … But we wouldn’t have, would we? Been together, I mean. ARCHIVIST Huh? W-What do you mean? MARTIN Well, we had that, didn’t we? Almost a year of just working a normal job together, and you hated me. ARCHIVIST I didn’t ‘hate’ you."ALT

Martin is the one who thought they wouldn’t have been compatible without it.

A screenshot of one of Martin's lines in the transcript for TMA 199. It reads: "Face it, John, it took almost two years of crisis and trauma to even make us compatible. And that sucks. But here we are."ALT

Which has an entirely different vibe to it imo.
