Sigh

If Colin is really dead, who will take care of his fish? Alice? Please I need to know they’ll be taken care of

Colin has a fishtank. Who said anything about there being fish in it?

NEW AUDIO DRAMA ALERT

EPISODE ONE NOW AVAILABLE!

[clare-89]

Imagine this for season two premiere: Celia, Gwen, and Alice in the OIAR. A computer clicks on. Another talker. But it’s not Chester, Norris, or Augustus. It’s Colin. His voice filters through the office and they’re unable to turn it off or stop listening.

[clare-89]

No, seriously, what makes Celia so special??? If Darrien and the other "emaciated souls" were each balanced out by someone getting eaten by the Centre then I guess it makes sense, but then why didn't Hill Top just eat someone to balance Celia? Why does two people going in her place balance it out instead of unbalancing it in the other direction?

And what about the other people we know who've crossed over? What balanced Anya Villette? Or Jon and Martin? Or the goddamn Fears???

Episode Six: Glitch Now Available on Patreon (and, soon, on Spotify and Apple Podcasts)

Listen now for: gay pining, feelings-catching, and, of course, the Horrors.

A new thing I’m doing!!!

While one day we dream of a sprawling tapestry of tales, quilted together from many different creators, we will start by incorporating Points of Articulation into our web and by sharing something new with you all. The first project launched under Three Fates will be You are the Ghost in This House, a new audience-directed horror audio drama!

A rotting old manor House, recently vacated. A pair of young women, returning to the house in which they spent two very different childhoods. And you. The Ghost. YATGITH will feature both written and audio chapters, distributed for free via Patreon and wherever else podcasts are found. Each chapter will be followed by a poll: What will the Ghost do next? And will the House ever let you go?

TMA 122:

Statement of uh, uh, Lorell St. John regarding, uh... zombies. Original statement given 1st February, 2015. Recording by Jonathan Sims. The Archivist.

TMA 53:

My biggest concern right now is whatever creature Mr. Heller encountered down there. It was 56 years ago, but if it’s still alive, I should be careful. What was it? A guardian of some sort? Or perhaps… perhaps… it too was once an Archivist.

TMAGP 26:

It was holding a tape recorder to Mr. Jarrod’s mouth, like it was trying to catch his dying words.

“Who are you?” I asked it.

“An Archivist,” it replied.

I know many people have already pointed out that [ERROR] could be the same kind of being that was under Alexandria, but this phrasing in particular is making me certain of it. A living, breathing, active Archivist like Jon is "the" - the one and only, the main focus of the Eye. The ones that linger after their Archives are forgotten - not alive, not dead, but somewhere in between - are just "an". One of many, still holding the title - still powerful - but far less human.

There are a ton of other parallels between the two that are making me so curious what our Alexandria guy got up to between - potentially - being released by Mr. Heller and finding its way to the Panopticon: basement Archive, the main building/library is burned down on top of it, it remains locked down there until some unsuspecting explorer unintentionally gives it the key... I wonder if there was an [ERROR] drifting around in the TMA world too, hunting people with a quill and parchment rather than a tape...

(Celia's phrasing is also very telling as to what she's been expecting to find.

TMAGP 26:

"No, I mean, something isn't right.… The External, the Archivist, it’s not acting how I would have expected..."

No, it's certainly not acting how the Archivist would. An Archivist, on the other hand...)

It’s giving “I’ll be the king of a ruined world”

Another episode of POA is up! Come listen to episode 4, Spawnpoint, now! Also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Throwing a tmagp theory out just for funsies:

[ERROR] and Chester are both Jonathan Sims from TMA, but Chester is the part of him that’s Jon, and [ERROR] is the part of him that is the archivist.

The main things I’m going off here is episode one, where Norris reads a statement where someone asks if this guy is her dead loved one, and he responds “I’m some of him”, and the most recent episode (episode 22), where it talks about splitting someone’s consciousness.

Both of these statements explore the idea of one entity becoming multiple, showing that this theory is at least plausible. Also, we see Chester pushing forward statements about the Magnus Institute, warning Sam not to go there (which does the opposite of intended), and [ERROR] forcing a statement out of Gwen, something the Archivist side of Jon did frequently.

I think it would be more plausible if either of the statements mentioned were read by Chester himself, but it’s still possible and something I’ve been thinking for a while :D

[clare-89]

Even though we got crazy revelations this episode, Harlan’s case writing was incredible and deserves so much love

[clare-89]

How we doin guys (again)

[clare-89]

Maybe they’ll be happy and together in another another universe

TMAGP THEORY: The deaths were a coverup

Jon and Martin died 20 years ago around the same time the Institute burned down.

It makes sense that their deaths were a coverup from Starkwell, and that they were involved in the Institute.

Idk it just seems weird to me to mention them in 22 and then have them just be dead in 23?

I still think they’re dead in the Protocol universe. But I think there was more to their deaths than we think.

[clare-89]

Somewhere Else?

[clare-89]

Harlan Guthrie does it again!

[clare-89]

Still reeling from the sheer artistry of the [ERROR] scenes with Ink5oul and Gwen in tmagp 21. Quite apart from the obvious (the tape recorder, Gwen giving a statement, all of which is so fun)—

The fact that the bystander Gwen runs into is in an alley smoking a CIGARETTE?

The fact that the tma OPENING THEME plays under the statement scene?

Not only is this like, the tma universe is leaking into the protocol verse, it feels specifically like the first episode of tma is leaking in 👀
