JonMartin

JonMartin is the slash ship between Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood from The Magnus Archives fandom.

Season 4
SCULPTOR'S TOOLS

Martin realizes that the tape recorder is now on, and asks if it's because Jon is back. He laments that the recorder missed Jon, and that he had missed him too. Peter then appears and says that isn't good. H e asks if Martin talked to Jon, and Martin says that he tried no to, but Peter gets why. Martin says that if he avoids him people will be suspicious, but Peter says that they already are. He had hoped time away from Jon would help Martin, but Martin says that Peter told him that Jon might never wake up. Peter says that Jon beat the odd, which is good, but makes things complicated. Martin says a hello won't make a difference, but Peter says Martin needs to be isolated for the power to work. Martin argues that he could just explain it to Jon, but Peter knows that Jon won't take the answer well and would do something rash instead. Martin says that when it's all over he's telling Jon everything, but Peter says that when it's over he won't want to. But he'll be safe, everyone will.

REMAINS TO BE SEEN

Jon tells Basira that he's still on her side, and she says that a lot of people have been saying that lately. Jon asks if Martin said something and Basira explains that Martin had kept insisting that Peter Lukas was still on their side. Basira regrets not shaking answers out of Martin, but he'd been going through a rough time since the attack and with his mother. Jon asks what happened to Martin's mother, and Basira tells him that she died about two months after Jon went into a coma. Martin was trying to hold it together, and asks if Martin told him. Jon says that he didn't, and Basira says that means he doesn't know everything.

SUBMERGED

Jon is able to find Martin, and Martin asks how he was able to. Jon just says that he knows sometimes. Martin tries to make an excuse to leave which Jon knew he would. Martin says that they've been over this and Jon knows that Martin has his own thing and he's not going to question it. Martin thanks him for that, but Jon says that it looks like Martin is going to do something really stupid, and awkwardly apologizes. Martin says that he gets it, and Jon tells him that he just worries. He's working for someone bad, but Martin is aware of this. It's no worse that working for something bad. Jon says that the Eye hasn't gone after their own, given that Peter has vanished two people. Martin says that if it wasn't for him it would be more, and none of this is helping. Jon admits that he misses Martin and Martin finishes his sentence when he suggests that he's lonely. Jon tells him that he heard about his mother and that he's sorry. Martin thanks him and says that it's better this way. Jon says that if Martin needs to talk he's there, but Martin says that he can't. Jon starts to tell Martin that Daisy might be alive, but Martin says he shouldn't know anything. Martin says that he needs to go and that Jon needs to stop finding him. Jon asks what happened, and Martin says that Jon died. Jon says he came back, but Martin's not letting it happen again. Jon is confused but Martin leaves before he can ask him.

Season 1
"It is going to take me a long, long time to organize this mess. I’ve managed to secure the services of two researchers to assist me. Well, technically three, but I don’t count Martin as he’s unlikely to contribute anything but delays."

- Jon; Angler Fish

"It’s because he’s back, isn’t it. He’s back, so now you’re going to be – around, again. Listening in...You missed him, didn’t you?...Yeah. Yeah, me too."

- Martin to the Recorder; Sculptor's Tools

Fanon
The fans originally called this ship 'the Dinghy' since it seemed like the least likely ship to become canon and it was relatively small. They dropped it after it was clear that JonMartin had more canon moments.

On AO3, JonMartin is the most written ship for both Jon and Martin. It is also the most written ship in The Magnus Archives tag.
