This is Magness and Penny on a good day:

I have made the pilgrimage

If you never hear from me again, I’ve fallen through a hole in reality and am now stuck in gay, spooky Windows 95

I wanted to draw this lad normally but the urge to green squiggle was too great :>

[ID: Magnus Archives fanart of Jon Sims sitting at his desk, clicking a tape recorder and beginning to read a statement. Much of the background is filled by the snaking green coils of Jon's speech bubble, which contains the opening lines of MAG75- A Long Way Down.

The next two paragraphs are the statement text; otherwise, the ID ends here.

Jon reads: "Statement of Stephen Walker, regarding his brother's disappearance from the top of Tour Montparnasse in October 2006.

Original statement given November 7th 2006.

Audio recording by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London.

Statement begins.

"I hope my brother is dead. He must be dead. I would love to believe that this is all some elaborate prank, some bizarre attempt to fake his own disappearance, but deep down I know that's not my..." End ID]

Bard casts vicious mockery: “Hag-shouldered scum-vestige!”

just finished tma for the 3rd time, and i can’t express how much i love this episode

[cult-of-the-eye]

Statements I would absolutely love to see:

Person has grudge on inanimate object. This takes over their life.

Itching

My house hates me oh god oh god

My computer is fucking BLEEDING

I keep causing people's deaths and I don't know why I swear it's accidental

Trapeze artist dies falling from the trapeze over and over again

Teeth

Thinking again about how Suzanne esentially subverted the "beloved famous man that is actually a horrible person in real life" with Finnick, who is the complete opposite of that.

Finnick has this whole image costructed around him by the people that abused him for years: the Capitol's darling, their golden boy, the sex symbol of Panem, the man that has countless lovers but leaves them constantly and doesn't look back etc. And you would expect, initially, to meet a man that retains at least a part of that persona in his day to day life. But Finnick doesn't, not even one bit.

You see instead a man that is deeply in love and completely devoted to the one woman he quite literally adores, a man that protects Mags, his old mentor and his mother figure, as much as he can, a man that wouldn't leave Johanna behind, a man that gathers whatever strenght he has left to speak publicly about the abuse inflicted upon him at the government's hands; the opposite of what the Capitol's media and reputation made him out to be.

Love that the vast majority of people listening to the Magnus Protocol right now are coming already from the Magnus Archives and so we’re rocking up like it’s the hunger games or something like-

“alright guys, wallets out, who do we think is gonna be the first to die? I’ve got $20 on Colin”

We really are not beating the “listeners are servants of The Eye” allegations anytime soon. We really will never learn our lesson huh?

[strongestpotion]

why is it always "you have an infestation" and "oh my god why are you covered in lesions" and never "how is the wasp's nest in your attic? is it nice? does it thrum with life and malice? does it sing that you are beautiful, that you are a home, that you can be fully consumed by what loves you?"

[mangosintherain]

Jon’s little whispered “it is remarkably easy to buy an axe in central London,” will always be one of my favourite random lines from TMA. The police may claim to be tackling knife crime but nothing can stop one (1) sleep deprived archivist with unchecked paranoia

The birthday scene in mag 161 makes it clear that Jon did not have any kind of handle on his employees. Tim and Sasha absolutely do not respect his authority and aren't afraid to show it. Sasha causally admits to breaking I to his computer to look at his personal info and when Jon starts to admonish her Tim cuts him off and he just, stops. Then Tim lights the candles completely ignoring Jon's feeble protests. The two of them together are menace. They're absolutely running circles around the poor guy. It's no wonder he's so grumpy in season 1. The only person who listens to him at all is Martin and Jon can't stand him. The guy was in over his head from jump. He acts so cocky on the tapes in season 1 when behind the scenes he was winning the award for least in charge boss ever.
