Sometimes MM's initiate trades and sometimes traders initiate trades. At the present it sounds like your stock is trader initiated. As for "Theoretically, on that same stock, I could meet the Ask price of .35 and the MM's would ignore filling the order and move the B/A up a notch."
That's unlikely. If they don't fill your order at the price offered at the time (unless it's a fast moving market) then you can call your broker and have them execute your order anyway at the price you missed.
