Martha Nielsen - Tumblr Posts
One of my favourite shows of all time and always the one I pick if I have to recommend a show to someone.
Recently persuaded my friend to watch and love getting her reactions to all the beautiful chaos 😄
My absolute fave thing about DARK is how when you get right to the end you realise how hauntingly, exactly perfect the theme song is....
Neither never, nor ever, goodbye
Jonas and Martha with the different versions of each other
fuck this time loop im leaving (walks into a different, worse time loop)
i guess I can post these here
Dark S2 E5 thoughts on Jonas x Martha dream
(beware of spoilers for the whole season)
I saw that some people here were creeped out of seeing the dream scene from 5th episode of Dark's new season.
Imho, the dream with the Stranger and Martha was beautiful, dramatic and disturbing. From where I see it, Jonas as the Stranger is an emotionaly scarred adult, who lost the love of his life, when he was young. This is how he remembers her, young and beautiful in his hands, beeing happy together when everything was normal and nobody knew the truth. She still haunts him and he is trying to make things right. And he keep seeing those dreams of their moment of intimacy, which causes the Dark matter starting to form out of her belly as an allusion of their connection triggering the black hole to open and the loop to exist.
This dream is a memory projected onto the screen of his new reality, as they where both 16-17 when it happened in the first place. Him being 49 years old now and her still being 17ish, is not the main reason for the scene to be seen as wrong, cause it's just a memory. He changed, she didn't. Would this scene be easier for us to accept, if they were both the same age? Maybe. We've seen those two dreams already. But Jonas grew up, and she never will. The love making scene is probably his last happy memory of her. And in that crazy world, can we judge him for having these dreams?
It's actually the dark matter formation that makes this dream a nightmare, I've found more disturbing. And it's the dark matter stuff that wakes him up all in a cold sweat. That's what makes it ominous.
I mean, she is still his aunt, we don't forget that. But the family trees here are so intertwined, that it's not even that disturbing anymore. You can be your own grandma in this show, for God's sake! In Dark your daughter could give a birth to you, and send you back in time, so you would marry your own granddad and give birth to your mom and your aunt!
Who still thinks that dearly loving a girl, who loves you back and with whom you're a perfect match, apart from the fact she is your aunt, is that bad?!
Oh, this season is blowing my mind...
What a beautiful parallel! Martha is questioning her reality in conversation with Jonas ones again.
Question is though: "What When is not déjà vu in this TV series"?

Dark S2E7 - S2E8 Parallels
Parallels different, but the same Martha x Jonas Martha x the Stranger She knows it’s her Jonas, because he will always react the same when she touches his face. I know all this thing is still a taboo, but there is a beauty in their emotions and facial expressions anyway. I cannot imagine, how it might feel to wait 33 years for the love of your life, who died in your arms, to touch your face again. When I look at the Stranger I truly see Jonas. Martha had just observed the same.

Parallels different, but the same
Martha x Jonas Martha x the Stranger
Continuation of the topic of parallels in Dark:
Let’s not focus here on by which moral standarts it is wrong and disturbing, just please, put it aside for a minute, alright?
There is a beauty in their tender moments together and in their dreams about each other. This is how she dreams about their kiss in a moment of intimacy. This is how he dreams about their moment of happiness 33 years later. It haunts both of them, because she thinks she lost him and he knows he already lost her. Deep down, she knows that he is alive, as well as he knows that this time - she could live. She tries to find him, whereas he tries to do everything he can in order to save her. Their love for each other is so strong, that none of the crazy stuff really matters. Just take a look at them then, young and in love, pressing their foreheads together. It was probably for the first time, when they felt truly connected to each other, hours before everything was ruined. And look at them now, one year and a week later for her, and 33-34 years later for him, hours before the apocalypse. You still can see their unique connection. It’s so present, that you can feel it even through your screens. Regardless of their time apart, regardless of messed up bloodlines and time travels – their connection was always there.
Just when you’ve started to think that Jonas has no game… #bitch you thought
Me, after finishing the second season of Dark: thinking that now I can re-watch the first season more thoughtfully, focusing on a concept of time and free will, staying absolutely calm.
Also me, a half an hour into the first episode of S1: crying my eyes out after hearing Mikkel say "Ultimate fist bump", having zero chill about any on-screen interaction between family members, realising that Bartosz was able to steal Martha away by telling her that Jonas hooked up with French chicks 24/7 for the last two months, heartbroken over any detail that make those rare beautiful smiles dissapear from Jonas' face, unable to get over Michael's suicide, ending up being depressed.

Perfection!
Guys... I have found this masterpiece on YouTube today and I've never seen a better video on Dark Season 2. This is a “must watch” situation. The parallels, the quotes, the music, the editing - they're as close to perfection as it could get.
I do not own anything, just sharing a beautiful video created by littlesociopath with you all.
Exactly, you guys!! None of our ships is safe! In this show incest is everywhere...
P.S. I've already come to terms with Jonas&Martha. At least we know how they are related, soo... In it's own twisted way, it is almost safe to ship them now. I do. Don't judge me for that, please :)
ooh also in season one of Dark it’s heavily implied that claudia became pregnant with regina after the affair with tronte (ulrich’s dad) so if regina and ulrich are siblings that makes bartosz and martha cousins so that relationship was also incest asdfghjkll
Which Jonas took Mikkel to the caves?
(Dark S2-S3 thoughts)
Usually there are two opinions - either it is Jonas after his trip to another world or it's Jonas from his travels with Claudia.
We know that time is linear within the loop, if you travel with a help of the passage or the time apparatus. Only the God's particle can break the rule of linearity, and can take you whenever you want /to some random time. And we still don't know how Martha's golden sphere works, and what can it do.
Ok, let's jump into the "which Jonas..." discussion.
In my opinion, Jonas who got Mikkel through the caves is probably Jonas from his year with Claudia. Let's briefly recall the events supporting this idea:
So Jonas 2020 returns on 20-21 June of 2019 through the Dark matter bubble. He kisses Martha, already being 1 year older than her at the time (if it's safe to presume they were born in the same year). He causes Jonas 2019 and Martha to make love and then goes to save his father. That idea fails, as Michael tells him that Jonas from very near future gets him through the caves. Claudia appears, and Jonas 2020 leaves with her to linearly travel in time by 33 years cycles. So I assume that in 4 and a half months he returnes to show Mikkel the way and then continues his travels with Claudia. When he returnes home in the day of the Apocalypse, he still is at least 1 year older than he should have been if he would not traveled in time. Then Martha finds him, Adam finds them, Martha 2 finds them too (Seriously, Jonas, were you even hiding??) And they travel to another world to which we have 1001 questions to ask. We don't know how the time-space traveling works there – do they have a loop, and how can you time travel, linearly or not? We still have no idea for how long Jonas is going to stay there, or when it will be safe to come back.
That's why I think the Jonas from his "travels with Claudia" time is the one who gets Mikkel to the caves.
So, untill proven wrong by season 3, it seems like a solid theory to me:)
Let me know your thoughts in the notes section:)
Is the boy on the right - Mikkel? So, regardless of the fact that Katharina might be pregnant, which is doubtful, Mikkel from the alternative world have never disappeared? Ooh... That’s why there is no Jonas in the alternative world, the world Claudia saw! It makes sense now! What if in order for Mikkel to stay, there are no tunnels in the cave, because Jonas has never existed in order to start building them. What if they do not have a time loop? Nevertheless, they should have a “Something”, cause they have an apparatus that travels between the worlds, and also probably in time too, because Martha2 was able to arrive to save Jonas by taking him to another world seconds before the Wormhole devours Winden...
hmm... I think I have made way too many assumptions from an appearance of a unknown person’s back on a photo.
I can’t stop making theories about Dark Season 3...help...
Oliver Masucci @oliver_masucci spoiling season 3 a bit. Magnus, Martha and pregnant Katharina. Though according to his answers it is just a bit of fun playing around but then theories :).
lmao, Jonas is irreversibly B-, blood transfusion wouldn't work here :D
most important thing to do during these times is to B+
I don't care if it's forbidden or moraly questionable.
They are a perfect match. Never think anything else! ;)

Dark Season 3 teaser theories & thoughts:
If in the parallel universe where there is no Jonas, Martha is a main protagonist and a main time traveler, does it make Martha not an alternative Martha, but an alternative Jonas?
Who is this new person that we have seen in three different time periods? Could it be Hannah's child who she raised to end everything?
Okay, and now all the thoughts and the reaction more or less chronologically ordered as the teaser goes:
Why there is no one in the Time Church, while those three versions of a person were setting the whole thing on fire? Where are the adult versions Magnus and Franziska?
Who wrote that letter to Jonas? Was it the same young Noah gave to the adult Jonas? Nah, but it looked quite freshly written. Was it from the alternative Martha?
Why Martha looks so terrified and a bit disgusted? Who's she talking to?
Why there is the phrase "Can we change the course of events" during Michael's suicide?! Excuse me? For two seasons you were telling us that we cannot, cause when we try - we make things worse. So can we, or can we not?
Oo, good to know that Magnus and Franziska will be together in the alternative universe too. Teens deserve some piece of happiness in this mess.
Oh, everything is on fire, but the candles!! That's my life this year.
Okay, the adult Jonas is in the old house, so I presume it's more or less 1888.
Why are they shushing Claudia's secretary? (That woman must be protected, she is a ray of sunshine)
Is it Mikkel's look alike hitting someone with a rock? I can't imagine Mikkel doing that... Judging by the outfits it's 80s though...
Hello, Alternative Claudia or an adult Claudia in the alternative world, it that the moment you were telling us about? Being in the world without Jonas? I'd like to see how that plays out.
Why in the name of sanity Elizabeth is covered in blood & dirt and trembling with fear? I know she'll be a badass when she grows up, but please don't traumatize the child...
Why this new person (3 in 1) is trying to kill Bernd Doppler?
*Gasp* I thought that old Helge was dead!
Too many colours at once, moving on...
Martha is wearing the yellow raincoat... Wait, what? Martha is wearing the yellow raincoat!! It's the ultimate symbol of a naïve time-travelling protagonist. But what does it mean for the plot..?
Is it Martha's grown up version of herself who she was talking to? Is she Eve, or something?
When is Adam?? Is it still 2020 or 2053 already?
That's pretty much sums it up...
Let me know your thoughts and theories in the note section:)
P.S.: I love that no matter what, the season release dates are matching the main event dates of the previous season.
And hey, they predicted the Apocalypse in 2020. Sure looks like it.
