[thermodynamic-comedian]

what i think oiar employees listen to at work:

alice - welcome to nightvale

sam - white noise or r&b playlists

gwen - malevolent

colin - death metal

lena - the scp foundation database

celia - the magnus archives

jonathan sims never attended parties in uni because he thought they made him look unprofessional and didn't approve of the activities. samama khalid never attended parties in uni because he is epileptic and there was This One Dude who always brought a shitty disco light and put it on the highest surface he could reach

[chicken-magnet]

as someone who loves when people draw tma avatars with little earrings in a shape that symbolizes their Patron (the eye earrings for elias and jon or web or spider ones for annabelle etc) i present you a new headcanon:

every "avatar" (or whatever they are in tmagp) has a tattoo that symbolizes their powers

[vieramars]

TMA Gerry doodles eyes on everything he owns, tmagp Gerry doodles smiley faces that are accidentally vaguely unsettling.

ALICE (TMAGP HC)

so...

I have the headcanon that Alice has on her back (and her entire body in general) the most randoms tattoos in the world.

( I love her)

"it's a complete mess" I know, she knows and she loves it.

[c0l0re]

Completely baseless but extremely funny TMAGP headcanon of mine:

Gwen 100% had Tumblr as a teenager but doesn't anymore and will deny it until the day she dies

Alice is on Tumblr a lot and one day she references some old Tumblr meme or fandom, Gwen laughs before she can stop herself, and Alice then makes it her mission to figure out a way to make Gwen admit to having used Tumblr

Sam and Colin are talking bets on who will break and give up first

[silly-tma-headcanons]

colin has the most fuckass laptop you've ever seen, which contains a decade of work, ranging from his gcse coursework to his coding going up to today and it's given him enough electric shocks to encourage MOST people to throw it out. he's too stubborn.

alice, however, has the most beautiful, expensive PC with three monitors that she exclusively uses to play Sims 4 and listen to Miracle Musical.

[cult-of-the-eye]

Gwen gives Alice the occasional makeup tip btw...Alice will be making coffee and Gwen will just slip in to make her own, say something about how gel eyeliners stay the longest while also being more forgiving than waterproof liquid eyeliner, then fucks off back to her work...

pov alice dyer is like not!sasha in the way that no one knows what shes supposed to look like because she changes her style every week

[ms-paints-sometimes]

i know everybody's talking about how needles and ink5oul would be besties but i think they would also get along with jane prentiss

when pre-worm jane was in her witchy era she went to ink5oul to get tattoos and would gossip with needles in the studio and they instantly welcomed her to the friend group

after getting wormed jane teaches needles how to actually be scary since she's way better at it

ink5oul practices tattooing on the worms and jane's all like "omg look they love it!" and the worms are just like o-o

jane is like the preppy white girl, needles is the gay best friend and ink5oul is the weirdo introvert they adopted (it may be ooc but do i look like i fucking care i just want more mag fluff)

i'm actually obsessed with this idea now, if anyone wants to ramble with me about it lmk

[thermodynamic-comedian]

headcanon that lena absolutely loves the sounds any and all machines make. from the soft whirring of a computer's fan to the loud buzzing and of a printer. basically every noise that colin hates. every single time she's alone and wearing headphones, she'll press a part of the headphones against a running laptop to hear the electricity running through it.

[vvanillavveins]

Waiting for them to go on their next coffee run and mention meeting a cheerful blonde guy in the café drawing little swirl patterns on his napkin and humming along to Poe's 5&1/2 Minute Hallway.

If it's Alice, she'll laugh at his nervous jokes, probably compliment his fashion sense, and tell him something about standing up for himself at work, and with that i will feel truly alive again

[they-call-me-haiku]

follow up to my Short Alice™ headcanon, i really want someone to draw alice on top of the counter trying to hide her stuff, while gwen stands at the doorway with a deadpan look on her face like "you know i can see that at eye level, right?"

[antichrists-plus1]

"gerrys not goth in tmagp" this and "gerrys hair isnt dyed black in tmagp" that

Wrong the real difference between tma and tmagp gerry is that in tmagp his hair is dyed well bc gertude helps him dye it

[n3onwraith]

I forgot to post that I drew Needles! You can't tell, I haven't made the HC doodles comprehensive yet, but hisbneedles hide under his skin and eject when needed, like those spike traps but millions of needles!

I'm gonna put all my HCs below the cut just to spare yall

He's def a natural redhead to me, but bleached it a lot before becoming an avatar

Technically, this would only be his human disguise thing. Full eldritch is reserved for attacking ppl and defense, which is rarer than attacking people, and in that form he's all lanky with all his needles out all the time like a fucked up longhorse and pincushion had a baby and it got possessed

He just has no sense of pain most of the time, at least related to intrinsic issues. Getting stabbed or shot hurts, but when his bones constantly break as Eldritch Needles or when his limbs fall off (like Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas) he doesn't feel all the pain, just a tinge or a pinch

Can remove his needles from his skin, but their 'slot' stays open until he puts them back or replaces them (like shark teeth, he grows them but can also swap them out for found ones) and he uses that to sew himself back together as needed

Lots of piercings, most home-done. Really only his lobe and one of three cartilage rings is professional, he did the rest as an angsty teen for fun

Was turned as a late teen/in his early twenties, and therefore his disguise stays looking that age because that's the only way he really remembers who he is and what he looked like. Eldritch Needles is just a fucked up skinsuit really, a puppet for what he needs to do, and Needles himself can't remember or guess what he would look like by now (bones, probably, with his luck, but he was taken as an avatar/eldritch in the 90s/early 2000s so realistically only around 40-50 or so)

Got in a ton of accidents as a kid, always was and always is banged up somehow

Flashes his needles and puffs up on instinct when things piss him off, has to stop himself from doing it around people

A gifted kid for the institute who ended up being neglected outside of schoolwork and what he could do (projection?)

Glitters in the sunlight even with the needles put away. Its just bcs he's got so much metal in him and the sunlight catches the slots weird enough to glint briefly

The jacket reacts the same way his hair and needles do, like an external organ, but it's only due to it being part of his avatar influence shit and its not actually a part of him. It goes dormant when removed or unwanted

Like a hedgehog hair-wise, it's harmless and like regular hair until it's Needle Time (TM)

Easily offended/angered, as seen in the 911 call, and likes to fuck with people. I'd guess older sibling if he had any, but the kind where you matured too fast and then slowed your roll so late you were the immature one (projecting)

Likes to be colorful but in a dull way. Washed out colors just suit him better in his opinion and let him express himself without drawing attention to himself and the fact he's not quite human anymore

Gap teeth <3 Wanted to get braces as a teen but didn't, still pissed about it because now he can't and it doesn't matter since hes not human anymore anyways. slowly learning to like the gap when his angel fangs don't get stuck in em

Didn't draw it but he has snake bites too, just rarely wears them. It's either angel fangs or snake bites but never both because they tend to snag for him

A parallel of both Nikola and Michael, kind of. He's got little bits that Norris, Chester and Augustus would recognize if they ever met him, like his speech pattern and penchant for never giving straight answers, but he's got his own thing going on more than the parallels ever could be.

Rip off Cheshire Cat. Alice in Wonderland, the animated one, was his favorite movie growing up for the colors, and when he got older for the story

[honiemoss]

i know he means Needles but I’m choosing to hit Colin with the bearification beam from now on instead
