the georgies barker will see a pathetic wet rag of a human being with no support system and the most opaquely mysterious and dangerous backstory and say "is anyone else gonna immediately provide this walking panic attack with bed and board out of their own personal resources" and not wait for a response

Bad News: I’m under a tornado warning.

Good News: If I get hit I might become an avatar of the vast and that sounds cool as hell.

My headcanon about Michael Shelley and Gerard Keay's gender is that Michael is very well-read on gender studies. He's very well educated on the topic and if you asked him about his pronouns he'd go into a long conversation about his gender identify and what it means to him in specific.

Then if you ask Gerard his gender identity it would just be this conversation:

Jon: "And your pronouns are?"

Gerard: "Wherever the wind takes you."

Jon:

Jon: "Would you like to elaborate?"

Gerard: "That's all I've got."

Do you think fear entities hate April Fool's Day because people are less-likely to think their manifestations are real and more likely to think they're just a prank by someone? Because that seems like it could be a problem for them. Especially The Spiral and The Stranger who rely on people doubting their perception of reality.

"But doorkeay doesn't make sense because Michael and Gerard never met in the canon timeline -" Canonically, Gertrude has four different dates of death. The timeline is what you make of it.

Which Role The Magnus Archive Characters Would Have In A Murder Mystery

Gertrude - Gertrude is the detective who's taken it on herself to investigate the case. She won't stop until it's solved.

Gerard - Gerard is the detective's assistant who's helping Gertrude investigate the crime. He is mostly there to be witty but he will point out something that rolled under a bed/couch/chair at some point and a say "What's that?" while Gertrude goes to pick it up.

Elias - Elias is the culprit of this case. He really just can't help himself.

Peter - Peter is the one who Elias tries to frame for the crime. After Elias lost one too many bets to him, he decided the only way to get him back was to frame him for murder. It almost worked too. If it weren't for those meddling Institute workers.

Michael Shelley - Michael is the victim. He is doomed by the narrative even in a Tumblr post. He was killed because he walked in on Elias trying to steal a Leitner tome from Gertrude's purse.

Georgie - Georgie is the party host. She didn't want to be involved with a murder. She just wanted to have her friends over and eat a cheese board, which is far too much to ask for when you're in the middle of the murder mystery genre.

Jon - Jon is the red-herring that everyone is initially suspicious of. The last time anyone saw him before the murder he was going to look for Michael to ask him for help clarifying something about a statement. Which made him the prime suspect for a period of time.

Sasha - Sasha is the vital eye-witness. She see's Jon on the porch at the time of the time crime (he decided to smoke a cigarette before talking to Michael) and therefore she's able to clear his name.

Basira and Daisy - Basira and Daisy are the cops that show up near the end with extremely relevant information about the past that is somehow very relevant to the present case. In this AU let's say they've confronted Elias before on suspicion of stealing a Leitner, but nothing ever came of it.

Melanie King - Melanie is the one who saves the day. She tapes Elias giving a heated confession to Gertrude and that end's up being the prime evidence of the case. Or she just like...jumps him. IDK go with your preferred interpretation.

Martin - Martin is a house party version of the butler. He just wanted to bring everyone tea and snacks and he ends up wrapped up in a murder mystery. This time the butler didn't do it.

Tim - Tim personality guest. He is just there to be entertaining and fill in a chair, but then he gets super into it and ends up having a pretty good moment where he confronts the killer.

My favorite Jared Hopworth fact is that he worked for the mafia for a little while and then decided to become a gym owner with no elaboration. Which, of course, is before the apocalypse where he becomes a "gardener" in his dominion.

You can say what you will about Jared, and most of those things are true, but I will say none of the other avatar's are beating him in terms of work resumes.

"Even now I can't fully bring myself to regret that part of the events that led me here, and had we reached the Valley as planned, I believe we would have been far happier than most." Is a line that's extremely relevant line to The Magnus Archives as a whole. So much of the series is things going wrong in every way they could go wrong up until the apocalypse happens. And yet...it's so hard to imagine any of the cast fully regretting all of the parts that lead to the end of TMA 200.

I can't imagine that Melanie regretted getting to know Georgie more in her search for the truth about the supernatural, and I can't imagine that Georgie regretting falling for Melanie...even though it meant she became a cult leader and got involved with The Institute at the end. I can't imagine that Basira regretted every moment with Daisy. At the least, not the long car rides where they would listen to "The Archers." I doubt Daisy regretted that part either, even as she grew to rightfully regret every other path she walked on.

I can't imagine that Tim would have regretted growing up with a brother, or knowing Sasha, and the friendship they shared. I can't imagine that Sasha would have regretted joking around with Tim in The Archives, even if she knew their words foreshadowed their fates. I can't imagine Martin regretting that he doesn't have to be alone anymore, and that he can finally be seen. I can't imagine that Jon fully regrets getting the answers that plagued him, even if he does regret where they ended up leading.

And of course, all of this doesn't mean they don't have ANY regrets. I'm completely sure all of them wish things would have turned out very differently. But...if they could have reached the valley as they planned, and lived the better lives they wanted with the people they cared about, then they could have been happier than most. And that's such a hard thing to completely regret.
