I barely know tma but I want to hear Everything about your cm!tma au 👀

There isn’t much to it but I think the BAU is a perfect like. Physical manifestation of the hunt.

They are literally a team of people who are constantly hunting someone very similar to how the magnus institute is a institution dedicated to compiling information and knowledge and we’ve seen this theme of ‘the hunt never stopping’ portrayed in the show with Gideon, Hotch and Rossi (also with Emily but in a different way, I also think the stranger would have much more of an impact in her life during her original BAU years, in evolution I think she’d have somehow figured out how to untangle herself from it) I mean you could definitely also categorize the episodes into entities and you’d think most of them would be the slaughter or flesh but I think that’s an easy way out. There are many that could be corruption and more that could be the buried or dark. Themes of the web would also be super sexy honestly, especially with web avatar Garcia.

Again there is a misconception with the eye and the web and that the ceaseless watcher is the only information based entity but the web could not function without knowledge it just uses it differently than the eye. Penelope has her fingers in everything. She might be eye touched, the opposite of Jon but I think, obviously she’s probably closer to the extinction. Honestly now that I’m typing this her being an avatar of the extinction would be so interesting because those don’t exist in tma.

Spencer however? Definitely connected to the eye in some way. I can’t decide on if he’s closer to the eye or spiral I can’t entirely explain that one but I think when you break Spencer down you find that he’s most scared of his mind betraying him. Especially seasons 2-7 post dilaudid and during Emily leaving, his birthday etc etc most of his arcs focus around mental health (and how many times he can get kidnapped but that’s besides the point) however sometimes the most obvious answer is the correct one and the Reid is so Eye coded is crazy.

Emily has identity issues that’s no secret. The hunt is a big influence in her but the stranger was there first and the more she’s around the team the weaker it’s hold on her is but that also means the hunt digs it’s own claws in deeper. Emily, much like Gideon is in a damned if you do damned if you don’t situation.

And Gideon oh beloved Gideon is the ultimate avatar. The hunt is so ingrained in him it’s as if they’re the same entity. He was able to escape it or so he thought just for a moment. Then it caught up, as it always does.

Hotch is the only one who ever actually got free I think. But he was a perfect hunt protege for a long time too.

JJ and Derek while submerged in that world I don’t think are avatars at all. JJ might be marked by the hunt but I’m not super attached to that same with Derek and the lonely

*corruption Spencer arc might be interesting but wouldn’t work very well with canon Reid.

*I didn’t add Blake, Tara or Alves bc I don’t know much about them, the later seasons aren’t my favorite.

*this is also just all word vomit

#i am thrilled that you asked #i forgot to add but Rossi took Gideons place in the hunt hierarchy #ESPECIALLY in evolution

So wait is Jon like in his thirties? I always see fan art of him looking older?

Good morning Ceaseless Watchers,

That’s because our special boy started going grey quite early in life, anon. But in actuality, Jon was 27/turning 28 when he got the job as Head Archivist, and by the finale would have been 30 or 31. He and Martin are about the same age. Though with both of our boys trying to pass themselves off as older, one can forgive the mistake. They’ve yet to reach middle age, but can look like a couple of grandpas as a treat.

xoxo

💝📎📌🐥😿

thank u for giving me an excuse to talk about podcasts, it is greatly appreciated 😌

💝 A podcast you think deserves more love

*screaming from the roof tops* OUR FAIR CITY

📎 Any episode you’ve listened to 3 or more times

I actually very rarely relisten to specific episodes (it's all or nothing for me lol), and I don't think I've actually listened to podcast more than twice, so far (I like to keep long periods of time between relistens, to give my brain the chance to forget and reexperience stuff)

BUT, I did say "rarely", and these are the episodes I've relistened to outside of complete podcast relistens

Wolf 359: Episode 30 - Mayday

SAYER: Episode 83 - Twin Voices

Our Fair City: Episode 7.1 - The Cube

arsPARADOXICA: Timeswimmers

King Falls AM: Episode 68 - The Best Imitation of Myself

The Magnus Archives: Episode 165 - Revolutions, Episode 200 - Last Words

WOE.BEGONE: Episode 42 - Absence makes the heart grow fond.

Desperado: Episode 14 - Haz Lo Que Tengas Que Hacer

📌 A moment that lives rent-free in your head

EOS 10: "It wasn't the eggs."

Our Fair City: Andrew in 7.1 tbh 👀

Primordial Deep: Episode 4 - Serpentine Rains; the "unthinkable disaster" mentioned in the episode description, like, OHMYGOD

Rusty Quill Gaming: Episode 177 - Last Words (Part 2), the whole "I need you" conversation 😭❤️

The Magnus Archives: uhh anytime Jon does anything Spooky or goes full Ceaseless Watcher on someone's ass

🐥 A character you think needs a hug

the obvious choice would be Jon from TMA, but I'm giving my vote to Resident Hale from SAYER because man, dude just can't catch a break huh

😿 Favorite character who’s just trying their best

TMA Jon, you've done nothing wrong in your life, ever, and I love you

(send me an emoji, and I'll talk about podcasts!)

I heard u said tma prompts 👀👀👀 Elias and Peter talking abt evil plans together and making their deal right before their 3rd wedding perhaps. You have a knack for writing sinister but fun dialogue

“What is this, number six?”

Peter is still sprawled on the bed behind him, but Elias is at work before the mirror, smoothing away the mess his on-again-off-again husband had left of his hair.  

It simply wouldn’t do to be unpresentable on his own wedding day.

“Three, technically,” Elias corrects, twisting the green tie around his neck into something like the cravats he had once been so fond of.  “Apparently Bengal wasn’t legally binding, and I don’t count Scotland.”

“No?”  Peter pulls himself up, running a hand though his thick white hair.  “That was one of my favorites.”

Elias shoots him a withering glare.  “You didn’t even show up.”

“Like I said: one of my favorites.”

Elias pretends not to hear him and watches with disapproval as Peter scratches his rotund stomach and lays back down.  There’s only about half an hour until the ceremony.

“At least have the decency to get dressed.”  Elias wrinkles his nose.  “I won’t have you making a fool of me.”

Peter makes a show of pulling on his crisp blue pants and buttoning up his captain’s jacket, but Elias just scoffs, turning back to the mirror.  “If you wear the hat, I’m filing for a divorce.”

But Peter just laughs, laying his hands – huge and strong and cold – on Elias’s waist.  “We both know you’ll do that either way, love.”

“You’re insufferable,” Elias snaps, leaning back into his chest.  Peter is soft, like he’s made of the fog he so often disappears into.

“Don’t know why you’re making such a big deal of this,” Peter says, off-handedly pressing a kiss to the crown of his head.  “It’s just one wedding.  You know we’ll have plenty more.”

“You really think I’ll be able to put up with you for that long?”  Elias snipes, turning around to reach up and lace his arms around the insufferably tall man’s neck.

“I think I could convince you,” Peter says, and leans down.

Peter tastes like static, somehow, in the way Elias’s lips tingle when they’re pressed against his for too long, in the way his ears begin to ring and chills run down his spine.

Peter pulls away before Elias can deepen the kiss, and Elias knows without Knowing that the flash of disappointment, of longing that flashes though him is far more satisfying to Peter than any kiss could be.  His Arctic-blue eyes glow with a cruel sort of pleasure, the only honest part of his affable face.

Elias hates him, just as much as he loves him.

But love, attachment, fondness – all those indulgences don’t do him any good.  They don’t feed his god.

“You?”  Elias chuckles.  “The Lonely has degraded your social skills more than a bit, darling.  I bet even my idiot staff could see through your so-called persuasions.”

“Is that right?”

Elias doesn’t even need supernatural powers to know a challenge is shining in Peter’s eyes.  For better or for worse, he knows what Peter will say.

“What would you be willing to bet, then?”

Elias rolls his eyes, inflicting his words with a drip of sarcasm.  “The institute, the panopticon, and someone to use it, if your charm could actually steal someone away from the Ceaseless Watcher.”

Peter would never take that bet if he thought it was for real, if he took the time to think of why Elias would bet his world away if not for the fact he Knew he would win.  But his eyes are alight with mischief, with the prospect of goading his love, his nemesis, his Elias into something terrible.

He grabs Elias’s hand and shakes it.  “Deal.”

“What?”  He fakes a sputter.  “Peter, you can’t honestly expect me to–”

“Going back on your word, Mr. Lukas-Bouchard?”  Peter clucks his tongue, obviously enjoying himself.  “My, my.  I suppose chivalry is dead after all.”

Elias narrows his eyes, forcing his mouth into a frown to keep a smile from spreading.  “Fine then, Mr. Bouchard-Lukas.  I’ll concede to your bet, if you’ll let my archivist into the Lonely when you fail.”

“Still on with your markings?”  Peter rolls his empty, Arctic eyes.  “Very well then, Mr. Lukas.  You have yourself a wager.”

Perhaps there is something more to be said, but a woman with a dark ponytail and a clipboard pokes her head into the room.  “Sirs?  They’re ready for you.”

“Just a minute.”  Elias dismisses her with a nod.

Wordlessly, Elias grab the hat from where it hangs on the bed post and places it on Peter’s head.

“Thought you hated this thing?”

Elias shrugs and doesn’t look him in the eye.  “You don’t.”

This wedding might as well be what both of them want.

It’s their last, after all.

"No need to be so sentimental, darling,” Peter clucks, lacing their arms together and reaching over to straighten Elias’s boutonniere.  “It’s just another wedding.”

“I’m sure you’re right.”

Lies always settle, bitter, on Elias’s tongue.  His god deals in truth, but the world of man has forced him to learn to live with the taste.

He washes the taste away with the feeling of static, once the vows are said and the rings are exchanged.

“Till death do we part,” Elias says, sliding the heavy gold circle onto Peter’s thick finger, looking into those Arctic blue eyes with a surge of excitement as he imagines the lights behind them going out.

God, Elias can’t wait to kill him.

But for now, he contents himself with leaning up and drowning in static, kissing his husband and fantasizing about sliding a knife between his ribs.

It isn’t until Peter disappears a week into their honeymoon – and honestly Elias is impressed he could hold out this long – that it occurs to Elias for the first time that he just may miss Peter, once this all plays out as Elias Knows it will.

He’ll be lonely, Elias considers as he leans a marble balcony off the Italian suite he made Peter take him to, once Peter is gone.  Once he no longer has someone to constantly push against, to know as well as he Knows, to kiss and manipulate and hate more than seems possible and love more than he can stand.

But that’s alright.  His god doesn’t care how he feels.

It’s probably the best nuptial gift he could get Peter, anyway.

Me: the Eye and all the entities have no connection to what a personal emotions and don't care about humans past their use.

*literally 30 seconds later*

Me: Maybe if Jon asks really nicely the Eye will let everything go back to normal. After all The Ceaseless watcher is such a pushover for his special wittle boy and loves his boyfriend! 🥺👉👈 When Martin has his dinner party make sure to keep The Eye away from The Web you know how they can be! 👀👀👀
