Re-listening to The Magnus Archives while dyeing my hair, when I was struck with this:

Episode 10 of The Magnus Archives and who just so happened to make his first appearance in Episode 10 of The Magnus Protocol

and it just so happens that he's chilling with a creature that seems very Hunt alligned

.....

Coincidence???

[spooksier]

btw that tma piece was inspired by me suddenly realizing jon and peter lukas have zero (0) scenes together before mag159 (which is wild to me?? like that old man was avoiding his ex? husband?'s pet archivist with everything in him) which only makes peter being jon's first kill crazier like. this is a man jon has just met and jon is a character that is literally said to avoid violence whenever possible, he saved daisy from the coffin and daisy literally slit his throat.

but peter lukas has been hurting martin, so jon kills him.

tldr;

Imagine for a second being Caesar, laying on cold stone, bleeding out in a structure your greatest rival and ally built as a monument to his glory.

For all your airs and future deifications, for all those triumphs and glories, just a man. Feeling every ache in your body as the pain gets more and more distant.

There’s clamouring, that’s distant too. It’s just you, and the marble effigy of a man you saw fall from the heights of glory to a headless body abandoned in a kingdom far from his home. Killed by fellow Romans, like you were, isn’t it funny how it always seems to come back that. Romans against Romans, civil war etched into every brick laid at this city’s foundations.

Then fall, Caesar.

it's called strategy, look it up

[ID: a digital drawing of Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood from The Magnus Archives, lying curled around each other on a nondescript, gently glowing background. Martin lies on his side in the fetal position with his head in Jon’s lap, his face pinched with sadness and pressed against Jon’s stomach. Jon rests one hand in Martin’s short hair and cups his cheek with the other hand, his own head rested on Martin’s shoulder as he gazes down at him with concern. Jon’s curly salt-and-pepper hair spills spills around his head, and his small, angular body curls into a similarly fetal position. He is depicted as a British-Pakistani man with dark brown skin, covered in prominent scars. Martin is depicted as a much larger Vietnamese-Polish man, with medium brown skin and freckles. He is about eight months pregnant; a subtle circle of light both highlights his belly and makes a halo behind Jon’s head. End ID]

The stories of flak are a literature of near misses, of geometry, chance, and luck. It was a universe in which an inch or two separated life and death or injury. Minutes. Inches. Banal changes that meant living or dying. Back in the peacetime world—working nine-to-five, taking children to get shoes—how could the veterans explain that they were only in this life by a few inches? It was as though they’d realized, years before the physicists’ theories, that many universes exist side by side: the world with them and the world without them. They saw it and they had no words for it.

From "The Silence of Soldiers" by Howard Mansfield, adapted from I Will Tell No War Stories: What Our Fathers Left Unsaid About World War II (April 2024), about his father's service as a 19-year-old B-24 machine gunner, excerpted in the November/December 2023 issue of Yankee Magazine
