mag186, aka 'we made a character so averse to being honest and sharing openly that the only way he'll verbalise what he's really thinking is if it's literally to himself and only after being strong-armed into it for 10 minutes'

#martin blackwood #mag186 #was reading some posts from s5 #i havent listened to it in a while so this is phrased a bit punched-up for humor #but the point stands. which is that i honestly believe also!martin was made to solve this problem #esp in an audio only show martin NEEDS to SAY what hes thinking/feeling #tma #the magnus archives #tma meta #tma s5 #martin #joos yaps

I was looking for my old post about this MAG186 fic and then I couldn't find it to tag @a-mag-a-day in so I guess I'm making that post now

Okay, jokes and awfulness of the situation aside, I think I would really like to have a conversation with myself like Martin does in his domain. I mean I do talk to myself but that's not the same, right? ...I'm not making sense, am I?

#its not the same if i always know what im gonna say next #its like playing ghess with yourself #tma liveblog #mag186

admittedly, I just love feedism content in general, but the reason I love it so much in TMA fanworks is because The Magnus Archives is about hunger.

it's about thirst — bloodthirst (MAG112, MAG176), thirst for knowledge (MAG92, The Eye) — and hunger — hunger for power (Jonah Magnus), statement withdrawal (MAG148), feed your patron or it will feed on you (MAG89, MAG184). Any food and drink mentioned are often corrupted, whether literally, by memories, or by paranoia, like the human teeth apple from the anatomy students in MAG34, or the oolong tea offered by Also Martin in MAG186, or when Martin offers Jon a sandwich and Jon is so suspicious that he actually comes to the canteen to make sure it isn't tampered with (MAG53).

one of the only actual physical descriptors we get of Jon is scrawny (MAG185), so there's something very satisfying to me about relationship weight; about him recovering from years of deprivation and neglect; about a squidgy little belly in the palm of Martin's hand when he spoons in behind him. the thought of Jon and Martin safe and happy and healthy and together delights me, be it curled up on the sofa with tea and a bun, or making soup, or going out for ice cream.

I love the idea of Jon's much-improved appetite still not quite stretching to finishing his plate and he always insists that Martin finishes it without so much as one guilt-tinged word because he looks so ridiculously gorgeous when he's full, one big broad hand resting contentedly on the crest of his belly; or that scene I still have to work in somewhere where Martin catches Jon engrossed in their own reflection, studying the little roll of chub that now swells out over the waistband of their boxers, and Martin begins to panic because when he does that, his mind is loud and swarming with the voices of his mother, of other kids in the school playground, of the shitty men he settled for because he just wanted to be touched: oh, don't wear that top, Patricia, it makes you look fat; my mum has big tummy like you but there's a baby in hers; sorry, I don't think I can go through with this. I don't like girls and your hips are just... too wide. but Jon just turns to him and smiles with sparkling eyes and says I look... loved.

I'm also working on a polychives au where the worm bites across his back and shoulders restrict Tim's movement so working out isn't really an option anymore, and one by one all his coping mechanisms fall through leaving only food. the weight begins to pile on, stretch marks spreading like lightning across his belly, his chest, his hips, and for a time he feels so horribly conflicted about it because it feels good, but it doesn't feel like himself in any way that he's used to. then Sasha tells him in no uncertain terms how much she likes it, and once a miscommunication is sorted with Martin, and Jon begrudgingly agrees to try the four of them being together, he starts to love his swelling belly, his puffy little tits, every bit as much as they do.

I love love LOVE picturing Tim with this big lovedrunk smile, absolutely boneless in a cuddle puddle as he jokes that he should get a ouija board planchette tattooed around his belly button because of how often they each have a hand on his pudgy belly, like they all do now.

just... the softest of soft recovery and comfort against the cruelty of the original work.

@a-mag-a-day Today in 'analyzing minor beats', it's being sad about this line:

particularly the 'unless it was a subconscious thing on our part' one -

That in that blink of an eye when the world changed, and victims were being divvied up between the domains, some subconscious part of Martin saw a lonely Tim, and, though it wasn't the one he knew, reached out to pull him close

#tma #tma s5 #a mag a day #mag186 #martin #also martin #martin blackwood #tma meta #the Magnus Archives #magnus archives #joos yaps #id be sad for this unknown Tim but tbf he was gonna get got in any case. dont think the particular domain makes much of a difference #the victim divvying is a fun subject to think about the logistics though #cause its obviously based on their fears. but it also has to be based in part on location at the time #otherwise there'd statistically be way fewer english sounding names if it was truly random #/from all over the world

Just listened to mag186 for the first time... Idk if Jonny Sims owes me therapy sessions or if he just gave me one

[im-the-queen-of-stardust]

I'm having a dilemma here. I could finish tma this weekend (probably if nothing unforseen happens). But I could also draw it out for another week and finish it the weekend after when I'm back home. I'm so close to making an actual pros and cons list about it.

#nothing bad can happen if you just never finish tma #a part of me is like #i could just stop here and never listen beyond mag186 #would be a nice experiment to find out when the suspense will kill me #because could i live with never knowing? #im sorry fuys getting philosophical now #its just a show... #tma liveblog

[my-soul-stays-silent]

Mag186 is making me feel feelings :((

Martin’s episode!!! I loved that one so much, the Lonely is such a good fear. Did evoke many emotions for me as well. Martin my beloved :(
