just a fond moment

[stripysockstumb]

next time jon is horribly injured is going to be so fun bc Idk much abt bones or ribs but. Isn’t that something that a doctor might, idk, notice? just, a patient missing two ribs, no scars indicating rib removing surgery, no records about removing ribs? and this is the guy that was dead what the fuck? a doctor staring at jons ribs just. 

“where are your fucking bones, mr. sims”

“ah. uh. i. lost them.”

“You lost your bones. Lost them?”

“…..Yes.”

It fit too well to not do that

When I'm listening to the magnus archives sequel and there's a magnus archives reference in it

Cos I can't reply to comments here are some answers. Yes I am with The Eye, yes I can see you, yes it's targeted at YOU specifically (I know who you are)

Avatar of The Eye but its just a 14 year old girl in secondary school constantly doodling eyes on her hands and is inadvertently being used by the eye as a walking cctv camera

The most insane take on anything I’ve ever heard is that The Magnus Archives is a fan fiction Alice wrote about Chester and norris.

Robert Smirke could never

Loving the fact that Protocol went "Oh you liked the 14 little fear categories in Magnus? Well, here's a fucking FOLDER of them"

Ok ok, I'm into it. I love this new format, so much more flexibility and opportunity for cool stuff. I have like a million thoughts that I can't organize into anything coherent yet.

Very interesting how they've incorporated Jonny and Alex's voices. It is Jon and Martin? I'm guessing that's the implication. Fascinated (and a bit nervous) to see where that goes. I wonder who the third voice is. Obvious guess is Elias/Jonah but who knows. So much stuff was set up in these first two episodes i feel like I need to relisten and like fucking take notes or something.

Absolutely love Gwen and Colin.

Two things I find interesting. Repeated references to the fact that they can quit. The whole thing starts with someone quitting and multiple people say, well why don't you just quit? Interesting when a big plot point of Archives was their inability to quit.

Second thing is Alice's telling Sam that the only way to deal with the job is to not pay attention and forget everything you hear. I'm very interested to see how that develops especially for Alice's character arc. It seems like Sam is not going to take that advice.

Lastly, very worried about Alice's brother. We all know what happened to the last brother of a main character in a Magnus podcast. 😬

[id: two ibm desktop computers on a plain white background. their screens have been coloured in bright blue with green sad faces on them. the first says “i’m chester”, the second says “i’m norris”, and together they say “we are in agonising pain”. below them is flame-text that says in all-caps “the puter boys”. end id.]

do the kids still say this
