Random Thoughts About the Magnus Archives

I feel like something's being said about your personality depending on which avatars you like and which ones you want to drop dead, I just don't know what. Like, anytime Peter showed up, I'd be like "You're a bitch ass, go away." But anytime distortion Michael made an appearance, I'd be like "That's my baby boy!" And there are a few that are kind of in between. Like with Nikola, I was like "You freak me the fuck out, but you're funny, so I guess that evens it out."

I think it's so interesting how despite a lot of the characters not getting any physical descriptions, a lot of artists in the fandom draw them the same way. Like, Melanie almost always has colorful hair, usually blue. Jon's hair gets longer with every season. Helen is almost always wearing purple. I just wonder how everyone unanimously agreed on some of this stuff.

I thought the Leitner rant was a canon thing, so I avoided anything about it 'cause I wanted to be surprised. I think near the end of the series though I finally looked it up and I was like "What!? This was a fan thing?" Totally hilarious though, I kind of felt the same way about Leitner.

The inside jokes are fucking hilarious, like the "homophobic vase." Or we have classics like "I just listened to the episode where the guy has sex with a bug." "Oh, which one?" and "Peter and Elias are definitely divorced."

Seeing what episodes scared people and which ones had people going "Actually, that sounds kind of nice" was very interesting. Like, episode 57 where the guy was stuck all alone in space? Emotionally destroyed me. But then others would be like "Yo, being able to be all alone in space with no one to bother me? Sign me up."

Also interesting to see which Fears scared people the most and which ones they think they would end up serving. I think the Buried scared me the most. Episodes 15, 132, and 195 freaking terrified me. I'd probably end up serving the Lonely, I remember thinking "Oh, that's me," with a lot of episodes, particularly episodes 159, 170, 186. It was a weird combination of "I'm in this statement and I don't like it" and "I actually feel seen." Like a weird mix of being called out and also kind of validated because I felt like my thoughts and feelings were finally being put into words and that meant somebody else had gone through the same thing.

What were some popular fan theories that ended up not coming true? I think I saw somewhere that a lot of people were theorizing that Martin would join the Web before he ended up serving the Lonely instead. People often say Gravity Falls fans grew up to be Magnus Archives fans and I remember Gravity Falls fans going crazy with some of the theories. And even if some of them ended up not happening, they're still really interesting.

I love how a lot of the characters do shitty things, but you completely understand why. Like, Melanie's wrong for blaming Jon for a lot of things that go wrong, but you understand that she feels trapped like an animal in a cage, so she's just lashing out. Or Tim is kind of an asshole in season 3, but you understand because he went through a lot of the same trauma that Jon did, he's just reacting with anger instead of paranoia.

I've been watching a lot of fan animations for this show and a lot of the comments are like "I checked out the Magnus Archives because of this video!" And the same thing happened to me too. Did you guys see any fan animations that made you decide to give this show a go?

When people draw Jon with long hair, they draw him like he’s the prettiest man alive and I love it. That or ends up looking like Jesus or Bruno Madrigal

I see every day things like a spiral shaped object or a spider and I jokingly think “Is that a Magnus Archives reference?” Or I’ll be listening to a song and think “Hmm, that could go in a Lonely playlist” or “Ooo, that so fits with the Vast.”

Since I'm on a putting thoughts out there note already, I have to say that the thing that gets me the most about episode 114 is that if feels a little bit like Sam's true and final conversion to D&D.

There's a tense (they're all tense by that point but extra lmao) moment maybe an hour before THE moment where Sam says, "Liam, thanks for introducing me to Dungeons and Dragons. [Do you like it?] I'm beginning to like it." and it's full sarcasm, but it hits a little different.

And then you have that 4th counterspell and Sam's reaction a minute later which is DEVASTATING and just. I don't know. It's easy to downplay Sam's investment because he's often such a comic relief character, even in the serious moments, both with Scanlan and Tary, but that moment just... It hits HARD. And you watch it unfold one moment at a time. Fucking kills me.

And then when it comes back at the end of the episode too and idk. Maybe its just watching it as a person still working through the messy middle bits of my own first campaign, but it really comes home. The level of buy-in is unreal.

So much love. That made the whole episode for me. That brought the whole thing home. What an incredible moment. Arc. Reaction. Deal. All of it. AGH.

Sam just... 10/10. Absolutely blown away.

14, Do I miss someone?

.

.

No of course not.

Who would I miss?

I’m a camera we don’t have family.

51, Favorite Food?

Don’t have one,

As I camera I don’t need to eat, but chicken seems quite good, maybe with rice

57, do you believe in true love?

No, it’s quite a stupid thing,

But the audience gets what they want,

So I suppose if they wish it,

But that normality isn’t very entertaining is if?

‭1 Corinthians 15:57-58 TPT‬

[57] But we thank God for giving us the victory as conquerors through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One.

[58] So now, beloved ones, stand firm, stable, and enduring. Live your lives with an unshakable confidence. We know that we prosper and excel in every season by serving the Lord, because we are assured that our union with the Lord makes our labor productive with fruit that endures.

Day 213 - 214

Attack for SheJustaLittleSilly on ArtFight

WIP Below:

[corvid-language-library]

Ughhh I've just realised:

My classes start at 4pm tomorrow

Because it's Summer School, I have to be in the classroom and have my login completed at least 1 hour before classes start, which means I need to be in the classroom before 3pm

It's a 30 minute train journey and a 10 minute walk to the classroom

There is a train that departs at 14:22. Assuming it's on time, I would arrive at the classroom at 15:02. I'd say I could run, but it will be 32ºC tomorrow. Additionally, that train is frequently 3-5 minutes late, and I'd have to start up the tablet and wait for the login page to load, which can take up to 5 minutes sometimes. So basically, it's a no-go.

The train before that departs at 12:16. This means I'll get to the classroom at around 12:56.

It will take me roughly 30 minutes to prepare for my classes

I will finish my classes at 19:40. There is a train at 19:48. It will take me at least 15 minutes to clean up and lock up. The next train is at 20:44.

This means I will have approximately 3h 53m to sit on my arse doing nothing. Add the train ride to that, I will have almost 5 hours where I'm just waiting around doing not an awful lot

Gotta figure out how best to utilise that time, I guess!

We return you now to a safe place. The Street Cleaners have passed. Street Cleaning Day, as so many other days, is behind us. We emerge from hiding spots, from secret locations, from places under other places. We step out into the street, and it is as though it is brand new to us. Certainly, it is cleaner now, but that is not all. We have survived all the way from birth to this very moment, and we look at each other, and some of us start laughing and others start weeping and one or two of us break out into a wordless humming song, and all of us mean the exact same thing.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 15 — Street Cleaning Day)

Somewhere the tiny people of the city below have arrived in Night Vale, and are beginning their war against us, having already shown themselves capable of murder. Somewhere a man in a tan jacket is whispering into the ears of our mayor, and we do not know what agenda they pursue. […] This all happens, somewhere else. But here, Carlos and I sat on the trunk of that car, his car, looking together at the lights up in the sky above the Arby’s. They were beautiful in the hushed twilight, shimmering in a night sky already coming alive with bits of the universe.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 25 — One Year Later)

But.... In spite of all this, coach al-Mujaheed called a pep rally last Friday, in a gesture of support for Malik Herrera. This, as any time, is when we should join as a town, despite the game that never was. […] Everyone was sad, and everything was perfect. We stayed late into the night under the fluorescent corona of the bleachers, eating damp barbecue, wearing our orange ponchos, and telling those tales we wanted to tell to those loved ones who have left us, telling them instead to those who we currently or may eventually love. Tears were hardly noticeable on our rain-streaked cheeks by the time we said our goodbyes.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 56 — Homecoming)

And they both take the hand of the person they love, and Amber smiles at Wilson and Wilson smiles at Amber and everyone smiles at everyone and at everything and no one is okay, exactly, but we’re outside and we’re smiling and that is a kind of perfection of its own.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 57 — The List)

Night Vale isn't a single unified thing that can love or be loved. It's just the name slapped onto a set of borders and rules that some old bureaucrats [..] devised centuries ago. But they don't live here anymore. We do. I do, and I can make it worth it. I can’t just leave it, I have to live it. Live it and make it better. For myself. For Carlos. For my friends. […] And for you, listeners. We will together celebrate another homecoming game. We will together survive another street cleaning. We will together… well we will see.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 70B — Review)

Our reality is badly damaged, and the only thing keeping it together is our acknowledgement, finally, of this strange town that we live in. No more denial. We must see ourselves clearly or risk losing ourselves forever. Angels are real. Our town is a deeply weird place. We know and acknowledge that it is a deeply weird place. There are dotted lines and arrows in the sky. And I love my family, and I love my brother Steve. He was right about everything. He always has been.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 110: Matryoshka)

This is my work, listeners. My work is to speak to you all. To talk you through the day. To murmur you into the night. Settling in to be another clear and pretty evening here in Night Vale, this weird, weird town. I hope all of you out there have someone to sleep through it with. I know I do.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 111 — Summer 2017, Night Vale, USA)

Carlos and I hold each other through the town, passing two teenage boys dressed in scraps of of airplane upholstery, gripping tightly each others’ faces. We help a lost toddler find his parents. We clear broken glass from streets. We walk home. We shade our eyes from the setting sunset which kindles through a hilltop cleft. We talk nonstop about today about tomorrow about yesterday about every possible moment, just talking, and talking, because we almost lost our talk forever. We do not hear the returning echo of sirens across the valley. We do not hear anything but ourselves. Stay tuned next for a silence that is all your own.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 167 — Echo)

And I say: “Look at the clouds in the sky. They mean nothing, and yet they are there and they are pretty. Isn’t that nice?”

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 181 — C****s)

The day after Valentine’s we said “it’s over” but we did not believe it was over. We believed it would never be over, that we would always be living the same sad and terrifying minute, breathing the same stale air thick with our own fear. But we were not in that moment anymore. But we were, some part of us, still. The day after Valentine’s was a rebuilding, a recovery, a return to form, a back to business. Bury the bodies and stand up the fences, it’s time to move on.

(Welcome to Night Vale: Episode 202 — The Day After the Day)

“What do we do now?” I asked him. He smiled, “First we go home, eat meals together, remember that we are a community, and that we are better together than we are alone.”

Why is one of my friends' solution to literally everything "spend money"

[walkswithmyfather]

‭‭1 Corinthians 15:54-57 (ESV‬‬). “When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

On Feb. 21, 2018, Billy Graham went home to be with Jesus.

Billy Graham will always hold a special place in my heart, because I went forward at one of his worldwide evangelistic tours, many years ago. That was the day I became a follower of Jesus. 🙂

Here is a link to a Will Graham Devotion: “When My Grandfather Entered Heaven.” Amen! 🙏🕊️🙌

In honor of our first snow (sadly, it didn't stick), it's time for another slumber party!

Everyone's wearing snow or winter themed PJs this time. Nia is wearing the Polar Bear Pajamas from 2013.

Petra is wearing the Snuggly Snow PJ's released in 2008.

And finally, Sameen is wearing the Snowflake Satin PJ's, from 2002. I actually got these as a kid myself in Chicago, so they're original to my collection.

God Revives The Spirit of the Lowly
