[ ID: a transcript from The Magnus Archives episode 192. It reads:

Archivist: You ready?

Martin [wearily] Ah, sure. Lead on, Macduff.

Archivist: It's, uh, "Lay on--"

Martin: [Frustrated] Sh--I know, I know! I know. Go. Just go.

This is the best jmart interaction actually

I’m taking emotional damage every relisten to s4. Ep 122 is basically this this from Jon’s point of view: he died to save the world, but then came back to learn that two people died, only two of his friend visited him and both are disappointed to see him wake up, Martin left him to work with a villains friend and Melanie might actually kill him on sight. Oh, and also now he almost certainly not human. Oh joy

"I had expected Gerard to leave immediately, but instead he walked over to my metal waste paper basket and placed the book inside. He reached into his jacket pocket, and pulled out a bottle of lighter fluid-

[ID: A Magnus Archives comic. Gerry's tattooed hands can be seen opening a bottle labeled as "Leitner Fluid". Then Gerry is shown in full as he pours the bottle into a trash can containing Ex Altiora. He tosses a match in, then smiles as the book is set alight. End ID]

Oh sorry Leitner fluid and a box of matches."

martin: my entire resume is bullshit *sweating bullets bc he thinks he's about to get fired*

jon: OH GREAT *audibly grinning like a crazy person because he's so happy martin isn't actively attempting to murder him*

they are really living in different genres in this moment

I cannot explain to you in words how much I fucking adore Simon Fairchild. Anyone who doesn’t love him can fight me, because

He winked at a terrified civilian as he threw himself off of a cable car.

He called Martin ‘my boy’ on their first meeting.

He doesn’t mind the thought of dying.

He toyed with the idea of throwing Martin into the Vast as a joke.

He’s the cool grandpa despite being literally centuries old.

He pities the Fears’ entities and is sympathetic towards them.

He doesn’t care about the pointlessness of the world and just tries to have a good time.

He uses phrases such as ‘charming chap’ and ‘absolutely lovely’ and ‘I say’ and ‘goodness’ and I am in fucking love.

I’m going to have to stop here before this post becomes several encyclopaedias long because I could quite literally go on all week about his sheer amazingness.

[wormswahoo]

him...

[ceaselessims]

Oh...?

mag 170 at work and I had to sit there as though I were feeling a normal type way

[swordsonnet]

i'm never going to stop thinking about annabelle cane. how manipulation was the only language her mother spoke, and so she learned at an early age to become a master manipulator herself, because it was the only way she could survive in that environment. how an intense need for control is a common response to trauma. how she knew she had to leave her family because there were too many variables, too many things she couldn't control. how her first attempt to break free of her abusive upbringing led her to her first encounter with the web, which left her with a fear of spiders that eventually led her to join that study at surrey university. how she was literally a victim of a highly unethical psychological experiment, and yet she calls it her apotheosis. how she is the one pulling all the strings, but at the same time just a puppet herself. how she speaks almost wistfully of her past self who read war & peace for fun. how she goes to all these lengths to achieve the outcome the mother of puppets desires, but we never learn what she wants, how she feels about anything. how she tells jon about her past and then suggests it may have all been a lie, like her own life is a story to be moulded to her whims, like nothing that happened to her was ever real. how she is crafting the narrative, but the story has never been about her. "let it never be said that i do not dance the steps i am assigned."

You know, for someone who has struggled writing essays even in grade school, I could truly write a dissertation on how Jmart didn't actually come out of left field, was truly always there, and how the arc actually makes a lot of sense for the characters and the medium of the story with how much I've been ranting to myself about it.

ceaseless watching abridged

[bardic-irritation]

ok I love my girl Sasha but if we're being honest she would've been an awful archivist. she followed the first eldritch monster she ever saw to no less than five secondary locations!! she got killed by the third entity she ever met! she would not have survived more than a year as archivist!

"The Lonely’s really got you, hasn’t it?"

"You know, I think it always did.

" Maybe... Well, I’ll be here, if you ever need me."

"I hope so."

"just don't wait too long, okay? if you haven't already."

WHAT IF I KILL MYSELF I HATE GAY PEOPLE
