A day in the archives
Tim: [tapping his pen rhythmically]
Sasha: [tapping pen back]
Jon: stop it
Tim: sorry?
Jon: you’re talking about me in Morse code! Stop it!
Sasha: Yes, John, that’s what we’re doing. In our very limited free time, we took a class on a very outdated, very unnecessary form off communication just so we could talk about you in front of you.
Sasha, later to Martin: yeah that’s exactly what we did
[The S1 TMA gang in the break room]
Tim: is letting someone win at chess sapiosexual bottoming?
Sasha: yeah I think so
Jon: could be
Martin:doesANYONE in this goddamn archive ever think before they S P E A K?!
I’ve read so many lets-get-drinks-after-work stories in the tma fandom but I’ve only now realised how stressful that must have been for Martin, having to flash his ID around to get in even though the birthdate on it doesn’t match his CV. Just imagine them queuing in front of Spoons, Martin trying so hard to cover his ID with both hands and consequently dropping it at least three times. Tim just keeps picking it up and handing it back without even looking at it.
I found this cool template and I couldn’t resist filling it out.
Featuring Jon Archivist as “First to confess their feelings to the other” in the manner of Mr Darcy, his love confession delivered on a palanquin of awkward, grudging insults. (Tim: “…Did you just tell me you love me in spite of your rational mind?”)

Finally I can get back to my ongoing mission of eventually drawing Tim Stoker as an avatar of every single entity. XD Obviously for today I had to do Desolation!Tim.
I am just a bomber inside Parliament
Laying gunpowder and throwing the matches high
I know it’s treason, but I’ll never apologize
Plotting one more time to bring your breached walls down

The magnus archives Was A Podcast huh. Anyway here are the season 2 crew portraits i did a while ago. Not!Sasha under the cut, because I Dont Care For Her.
[Image ID: Four bust portraits of Martin Blackwood, Jonathan Sims, Sasha James, and Timothy Stoker; all facing forward

Image 2: Jonathan Sims is a light skinned desi man with short wavy greying hair. He has large round scars on his face and his eyes glow with a greenish-yellow light. He is wearinga a white collared shirt with a badge on it that reads “TMI” and has a stylized eye on it. He is staring intently straight ahead. The background is a pattern of tape recorders and abstract green shapes.
Image 3: Sasha James is a black woman with freckles and multiple facial and ear piercings. one side of her head is shaved and she has long braids in shades of purple and orange. She is winking and smiling. She is wearing a leather jacket with spikes on the shoulders and a black choker necklace. The background is a pattern of computer error windows and abstract shapes in shades of orange, red, and yellow.
Image 4: Timothy Stoker is an Asian man with short purple and blue hair. He is staring sadly straight ahead. He is wearing a purple t-shirt with “Lamps in video games use real electricity” printed on it. The background is a pattern of hearts with arrows through them in shades of blue, purple, and teal.

my piece for @tapesdidntcatchzine, a TMA fanzine! Feat. some season 1 assistants daydreaming
[ID: a painting of Tim, Jon, and Sasha from TMA. They’re all standing side by side, pers-derive cut off just above the knee. Tim has one hand behind his back and the other holding a detonator to his chest. Jon has both of his hands folded over his waist, wearing a hospital gown and intubated. His eyes are closed. Sasha has one hand behind her back and the other holding a flashlight to her chest. Tim and Sasha’s heads are replaced with flowers. Tim’s is bright red with long stamen. Sasha’s is blue with a yellow and brown center. Over Jon’s mouth, where the oxygen mask would go over his face, a many-petalled pink flower blooms. All three of them are unsaturated compared to their flowers. Behind them is a heart signal. End ID.]
An animatic idea for Martin based on The Pantaloon by Twenty One Pilots zapped into my head many months ago and I just never had the time to do it, and I was reminded of it just recently so I thought I’d make the most prominent frame stuck in my head! Would be set to these lyrics:
All your friends fertilize
The ground you walk
Lose your mind
[ID: a bust of Tim from TMA, a filipino man with overgrown, fluffy short hair wearing an open loral-patterned shirt over a tshirt. There’s a look of outrage on his face as he shouts “Your Trauma?! Fuck you! I got eaten by /worms/ because of you!” End ID.]
I was consumed by Tim Thoughts in my bio lecture today
[ID: Doodles of Jon, Martin, Tim, and Not!Sasha from TMA. Jon is a south asian man with overgrown short hair and bandages along the left side of his body. He’s stressed, frowning at something unseen. Martin is fat white man wearing a large sweater, appearing slightly confused. He’s asking “Is that Tim’s house?” Tim is a filipino man with piercings and moles, as well as bandages on the right side of his face. He’s looking at something unseen with discomfort, clutching at his own shoulder. Last is Not!Sasha, a black woman with straightened mid-length hair wearing a cardigan. She’s smiling brightly. End ID.]
Just some doodles of the S2 crew, can’t believe I’m TMA brainrotting again
Rest In Peace my guy o7
[Image Description: A three-panel black and white comic of Jonathan Sims, Timothy Stoker, and Martin Blackwood. Top left, Jon sits in a train car on the phone.
Jon: “So nothing’s happened while I’ve been out?”
Top right, A close up of Martin’s head. He’s talking at his phone and has some scratches and sparkles on his face.
Martin: “Not really…”
Bottom, Martin and Tim are standing in an alley littered with bits of clown including the full body of one with a cracked mask in the bottom left corner. Confetti has come out from its head. Tim squats near the ground and looks at Martin over his shoulder, resting an axe on his other shoulder and holding up a loose mask. He wears a kayaking jacket. Martin is standing, still talking on his phone while gesturing with an axe covered in sparkles and something dark.
Tim: “You done yet?”
Martin, still at the phone: “Nothing to worry about!” End ID]
