PLEASE what is this fic called i need to read it IMMEDIATELY
Martim and Jonsasha are criminally underrated. Martin and Tim’s dynamic has the duality of being really sweet (Working through each other’s pasts, Tim loving to fluster Martin then getting surprised when Martin has his own quips ) or incredibly tragic (Martin losing Tim to his paranoia after s2). Jonsasha? They’re the ultimate insufferable nerd couple. They have three cats. They crochet and spend hours on crosswords together. Half their conversations are just infodumping at each other.
OH MY GOD YES. I've seriously had such a major grievance with this ship name forever because it just seems so unimaginative? but this is a PERFECT explanation
now, how do we justify "jontim"....
my main grievance with the tma fandom is that JonMartin is just, an Objectively Bad ship name. I'm sorry but in a world of Lonely Eyes, Door Keays and Terminal Velocities fucking Jonmartin? seriously?? Jon and Martin? yeah i sure hope it does. that is certainly the two main components of that ship. 10,000 people following the ship tag, 9900 fics on AO3, over 5 years of podcast and not a single person managed to popularise a ship name beyond literally just. smokshing their first names together. and don't get me started on "Jmart". that's not a ship name. that's a cornershop 12 year olds go to buy monster. wheres the magic? the ~spooky~? the "first date is essentially the apocalypse"? we are getting a bad grade in ship names, something that is both Normal To (Not) Want and Possible To Achieve.
YOU. NEED. A. DOOR.
The moment from Season 2 finale that got stuck in my head
A silly scared archivist
I blame my friend for the intro to this band. They know what they did!
Anyway! Have some Jonny D'ville wanted poster art work! I'm gonna do this with a few of the other mecs to, hope you enjoy
Insane to me that the UK government is slowly trying to legislate trans people out of existence and I have not seen a single person talk about it
I want Michael the Distortion to meet Page Gerry. I want them to talk. I want Michael to gently touch his face and say, "What did she do to you?" And Gerry to stroke Michael's hand and say, "No worse than she did to you."
I am far from the first person to say this, but my favourite TMA headcanon will always be that Elias Bouchard was a stealthy trans man and the Eye just decided to not tell Jonah
silly transfem jon doodle
So when I was in middle school and realized I'm not straight I remember feeling so alienated in public discourse because gay people were treated as a culture war talking point. and we would have literal school assignment debates in class on whether people like me should have rights. Very few people Knew this about me outside a couple friends but it felt like gay people were treated as a theoretical concept and not actual living human beings who could be sitting in the room while non gay people discussed if they should be allowed to live. I would go online and see such undisguised virtriol about people like me-- even 'allies' seemed to treat me as a Concept or Political Ideology instead of a person. It's such a bizarre feeling, but as the years went by at least people seemed to see me as a human being who could exist and maybe be in the room while talking about this kind of stuff. The feeling of being An Ambiguously Real But Conceptual Forcibly Politicized Entity slowly went away. So it is nostalgic in the absolute worst fucking way possible to be trans right now and feeling the exact same thing I felt back then.
Rain, they/themEveryone I know irl is sick of hearing about my hyperfixations so I came here instead
