You are a record of fear, both in mind as you walk the shuddering record of each statement, and in body as the Powers each leave their mark upon you.

Magnus Protocol Theory: Luke Dyer’s band is sacrificing people
Idk if Luke knows this is happening or not. But “Penny For a Well” and then there’s a drowning victim immediately after their concert?
The episode title “Well Run” could also refer to the band name, as well as Lady M’s line. Their titles usually have double meanings.
Luke mentions his band is “picking up” and he didn’t expect it.
Dredgerman is the name of his other band. Dredging is a type of fishing that can destroy coral.
What does the victim say?
Tumblr media
What does this mean? No idea. Also @archivists-plus-one came up with a lot of this

Didn't know about that Corruption theory before (and didn't wanna reblog the post for spoilers) but now I'm curious, what other theories did people have while the show was still airing? I joined the fandom around 160 so anything before that is a mystery to me.
Referencing this post (beware, it has spoilers for The Magnus Protocol).
Oh goodness, so so many. Only a few that I remembered off the top of my head, but I spent some time today trawling the depths of my "magnus archives speculation/analysis" tag and found a couple more fun ones.
Most of the ones I did remember are either still popular headcanons (Web!Martin), or actually turned out to be canon (Jonah!Elias). The Gertrude one always stuck in my head because it's very silly on the surface but also draws attention to the fact of like - how was her skin still in good enough condition to wear after being buried for months? (And Lietner's too, for that matter). Was Nikola just wearing really tattered rotten shreds???
Anyway. Some that I remembered, which all relate to Martin for some reason:
Backup Archivist: Heading into the Unknowing, Elias had Martin reading statements specifically to train him to be a stand in Archivist in case Jon died. Also included sub-theories that he could end up able to compel people on his own, share the role with Jon, or take over entirely if the show pulled a bait-and-switch and Martin was the real protagonist all along.
Who's the Father?: Every single possible theory about who Martin's dad was and what implications that could have on the show, from Leitner to Elias to Peter Lukes to that one dude Peter banished to the Lonely in his statement in 159.
Schwartzwald Cousins: Albrecht von Closen says he and Clara/Carla had trouble having kids in his first statement, but in a later episode says they have two boys. Part 1 of the theory was that the kids were actually avatars who'd emerged from the mausoleum after Albrecht disturbed it, and been adopted by the childless couple. Part 2 was - well - it's canon that Gerry is descended from one of these kids. The theory was, what if Martin was descended from the other? Gerry seems to have some Eye powers linked to his heritage and upbringing, so it was speculated that Martin might turn out to have some as well and be important to either Elias's plans, or to thwarting him (this tied into the Backup Archivist theory nicely). A sub-theory was that they were significantly closer cousins, Martin's mum's maiden name had been Keay, and Martin K. Blackwood was Martin Keay Blackwood all along.
And the ones that I found in the tag (credit in brackets):
Martin’s mum was a runaway Lukas (@/centaurianthropology, here)
The lighter was linked to the Desolation (@agnesmontague) + an addition by me that I'm so proud of in hindsight - "I think the web design pretty much confirms that it’s linked to the Web, but if it’s the Desolation as well, might it be linked to the other occasions we’ve seen those two powers interact? Namely, the ever mysterious Hill Top Road?" (Here)
Another of my posts that I'm delighted to reread (here) reminded me of the many, many, "what's up with the tapes?" theories. I remember "the tapes are sent by the Web", "the tapes are sent by Elias", "the tapes are manifestated unconsciously by Jon" (my personal favorite, sadly disproven), and I think there were also some "the tapes are Gertrude's ghost" posts???
Elias was the Eye the same way Michael was the Spiral - Gertrude sacrificed him to stop the Watcher's Crown (@/statementbegins, here)
Also reading through these is reminding me that there was a stretch where we were calling the Vast and Lonely the "Void" and "Isolation", which I love.
This is just a select few posts from 2018, so there's a lot more under the tag if you're interested in looking! Link below, copy and paste into a web (lol) browser because the archive (lmao) page doesn't work on the app.
https://cirrus-grey.tumblr.com/archive/tagged/magnus%20archives%20speculation%2Fanalysis
If anyone else remembers other old theories please feel free to drop them in the notes! I know there were so many more that I don't have saved.

Obey Me zombie apocalypse AU except everyone is human and nobody dies because I'm not good at writing character death. Less focused on MC/you and more about world building and random ideas
Literally did this in class on a time limit so it's not edited </3
★•—–-
"Demons" and "angels" aren't real, they're just the names of the two most major survivor groups for good reason; demons are ruthless and unforgiving, rough on the outside and ridged on the edges towards outsiders. Generally it's very hard to join their group, if not flat out impossible past a certain point.
Angels on the other hand, while just as hard to become, tend to be kinder to people not in their group. They're more willing to house someone they can see the good intentions of, more willing to help someone out of a sticky situation with no strings attached.
Of course, "reapers" exist, but they're less of a group and more of a web of mercenaries willing to take long lasting missions to hunt down other survivors or clean out large zombie infested areas on their own.
Demons:
A town around the beginning of the apocalypse had been overtaken by them, more specifically, by Diavolo's father and made into a highly fortified base with the help of many people over the course of a long period of time. Eventually one day he went missing on a serious hunt and everything was left to his son. The city was named Devildom to play into the whole demon theme going on.
Leader + second in command: Diavolo, Barbatos
Overseers: Lucifer (general manager), Mammon (scavenging + look out), Leviathan (weaponry/arsenal), Satan (archivist), Asmodeus (hygiene), Beelzebub (food storage + production), Belphegor (defense/strategist)
Honorable mention: Mephistopheles
Role meanings:
General management — does whatever is needed, helps keep other overseers on track and in line, reports weekly agenda and past week's events directly to Diavolo
Scavenger + look out — organizes groups to go out scavenging for material that cannot otherwise be grown or made, also keeps people on the lookout around Devildom in case of any hoards in the area or survivors with bad intentions
Weaponry/arsenal — keeps track of the creation and distribution of weapons, including but not limited to things such as guns, explosives, melee, and chemical warfare
Archivist — writes down and keeps a library of information regarding the apocalypse, types for zombies, people in the Devildom, and any important information on other survivor groups and natural phenomenon
Hygienist — creates and distributes items of hygienic need, such as clothes, soap, feminine products, razors, and helps to manage the clean water
Food storage and production — despite the name, the role keeps track of rations and oversees the agricultural parts for the town
Defense/strategist — keeps a general eye on the surrounding area and infrastructure of the Devildom in the event of an emergency, and helps plot out the best means of evacuation and the best places for guards
Ages of lest to youngest:
Barbatos — 33
Lucifer — 30
Diavolo — 29
Mephistopheles — 28
Mammon — 26
Leviathan — 24
Asmodeus — 22
Beelzebub & Belphegor — 20
Satan — 17
Angels:
The upper class part of a city was overtaken sometime around when the Devildom was created, nicknamed Celeste, it mainly consists of several tall buildings, the lower levels left clean but vacant as most angels are in the higher floors to allow for ensured safety during the night. It was created by a man named Father, who nowadays is very rarely seen and uses Michael to speak to his followers.
Leader + second in command: Father, Michael
Known overseers and honorable mentions: Simeon (ex overseer, what his job was remains unknown), Luke (a young angel), Raphael (overseer for defense/strategy)
Role meanings:
Defense/strategy — keeps a general eye on surrounding area and infrastructure of Celeste in the event of an emergency, helps to plot out the best means of evacuation, often getting his hands dirty for the safety of other angels
Ages oldest to youngest:
Father — unknown, last seen appearing to be in his kid 60s 8 years ago
Michael — 33
Simeon — 30
Raphael — 23
Luke — 10
Simeon nowadays bounces from job to job as needed, but typically is seen helping with managing things on a lesser level with Luke planted right by his side. It's unknown if Luke is biologically related to Simeon, however, they treat each other as father and son.
Reapers and honorable mentions:
Reapers are less of a group and more an interconnected web of people, labeled based on their ability to survive with a ruthlessness very few could muster. Many still count to the dies that other survivors meant safety, that despite the ten years since the start of the apocalypse, that a cure could be made. Reapers were typically the first to suck up the situation and accept that humanity was no longer an option.
While not a reaper, Solomon was a known menace among survivors. He was a force to be reckoned with, and not many were very fond of the man despite him having extensive knowledge on so many things and having connections to the reapers, angels, demons, and many other survivor groups.
MC is a survivor with little known about their last, though their reputation is high after managing to befriend several different groups of survivors, including demons, angels, and reapers.
Ages oldest to youngest:
Thirteen — 27
Solomon — 25
MC — unknown, wears a constant goat skull as a mask and rarely speaks, speculation on their age ranges and very few know how old they truly are

TMAGP 15 THOUGHTS
spoilers under the cut
Ok, I'm going to try to go in order of the episode so I don't confuse anyone 😅
● Pre - Case
First off, while reading the transcript, I noticed the title (under Episode 15) said "Good Show" while under the Announcer's lines it says "Well Run," the title used on YouTube. I wonder if this was the original title, a typo, or something else. Also, I did check every other transcript, and all match with the announcer's lines and top of the page title. Just something random I noticed lol
According to Wikipedia, a summary of 'The Pillowman' (the play Sam and Celia were planning on going to) is:
"Katurian, a writer of short stories that often depict violence against children, has been arrested by two detectives, Ariel and Tupolski, because some of his stories resemble recent child murders. When he hears that his brother Michal has confessed to the murders and implicated Katurian, he resigns himself to being executed but attempts to save his stories from destruction. The play contains both narrations and reenactments of several of Katurian's stories, including the autobiographical "The Writer and the Writer's Brother", which tells how Katurian developed his disturbed imagination by hearing the sounds of Michal being tortured by their parents."
I wonder if this might be foreshadowing: either for another Avatar, or maybe what someone is going to try to do to Jack (this would break me, I hope he stays safe 😭😭😭), or maybe it could be a nod to Sam's or Celia's past?
On a lighter note, I really enjoyed the Sam/Alice/Celia interactions! Maybe a polycule in the making?
● Case
This case was definitely of the Hunt. It kinda reminded me of the 'Murder Club' episode in TMA. Lady Mowbray is definitely interesting! I hope we get to see more of her :3 I wonder if her family is one of Avatars, like the Fairchilds (adopting other Avatars in, instead of focusing on blood like the Lukas'). Also, I wonder if the 'dogs' are like Daisy's transformation in S5, but more extreme. Just a werid thought I had lol
● Post - Case
Mowbray telling Celia that she's "different???" More nods to Celia being from TMA! (:
Also, the fact that Celia caught onto her being an Avatar and the "No you won't" to "catch you next time, dearie?" Let's go, Celia!
WTH is a 'Cheshire Bouchard?' Is it like the Fairchilds or Lukas'? Is it a family of Avatars? Are there multiple Bouchard families? Are Gwen and Elias even related? I have so many questions 😭
We also got to meet Luke which was cool! I hope nothing bad happens to him (me actively remembering what happened to Tim's brother) 😅
As for 'Victim' and Alice: the victim had to be a victim of the Vast, especially since they talk about stuff like the sea, the sky, deep blue, no ground, ect. And they seemed tied to the tape recorder in some way? I wonder if this universe's Archivist or Magnus or Head of the Institute had a similar power to Jon but more extreme. Like how Elias said that he was 'dream sharing' and was (accidentally) forcing people to relive their experiences with the fears in their dreams, I wonder if it's something like that, but more extreme and tied to their statements? Sorta like how Jon had the statements as an anchor, maybe the person anchored the victim's experience to the tape recorder, causing the spewing up water and choking and such.
Anyway, really interesting episode!

Alright so in the final part of act III of inscryption P03 does a monolog about the great transcendence being him uploading the game to the public, and how Luke was fooled into helping him by defeating the uberbots, sense each of them having some secret thing that would make the great transcendence happen.
And I mean Golly and the archivists thing makes sense (access to the internet and the game files) but the photographer and the unfinished boss don't actually... do anything valuable?
The photographers section would take screenshots of act III, obviously this would be a big spoiler so none of these screenshots Luke made are in the gamepage.
And finishing the unfinished boss would probably be confusing if executed in the way P03 frames it, the whole mechanic of the boss IS you 'finishing' it, messing with the rules messes with the board to do things like completely wipe every card off the board. How exactly would a finished unfinished boss work?
Thinking about it made me ask more questions like what version of the game did P03 canonically upload? I mean you'd probably assume it's the one uploaded on the steam page sense that'd be SUPER meta but half of p03s rant would make 0 sense- (neither the photographers screenshots would be used nor the 'finished' unfinished boss)
The entire existence of the other two uberbots implies (or at least FEELS like it implies) P03 made and uploaded its own game, but it's not shown so we NEVER KNOW???
But then there's the more plausible reason that Daniel needed to add the uberbots for leshy and the magic bush guy that needed to also represent them in some way, but couldn't think of a good reason as to why P03 would need them in the first place- and I need to go to bed. >.<

*crawls out of the dirt covered in blood and bruises* I got Uberbot designs for ya
Ok in all seriousness ough I need to improve on drawing robotic elements so consider this a first pass
Anyways everyone making uberbot designs are incredibly correct so I took a swing at it for myself. This is a post game au after all, I do like the ides they get their own bodies eventually
Some notes- custom can switch between the other face options and a few others for their own face at will, but they prefer the one Luke chose for them. G0lly is the same size/height as P03, she just has a wheel instead of hovering. The wheel is retractable though. I like to think Grimora got archivist the cloak, she was more flattered at them being inspired by her really, and decided it’d be more fun to lean into it. Archivist loves the cloak, they were very excited about it! Also archivist hovers it’s just a lot lower to the ground so it’s harder to notice
I like to think the uberbots help out around the factory, for sure custom helps the dredger and photographer probably helps the inspector when not out taking pictures. Archivist probably is more like a manager, they definitely reorganized how things run to be more efficient as soon as it could like the place was a bit of a mess after being overclocked for so long, P03 was grumpy about it but dude, you gave your organization program a personality and a body what were you expecting?
Last thing to note is G0lly got a body last, even though hers was probably the simplest to construct.

After I posted about how I love the TMA fanart I had a couple people ask about how I think the characters look. I can’t draw so here are some photos and descriptions. Note* I listened to the whole series before I even looked at the fandom. They’re stuck as who they are in my brain and I can’t change them anymore, they’re dug in there.
The Archivist Jon Sims - Ben Barnes
Tumblr media
Shadow and Bone Ben Barnes where he’s in his late 30s and showing his grays a little, NOT twink Prince Caspian Ben Barnes.
Martin Blackwood - Luke Newberry
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know canonically Martin is on the bigger side but that sweet face, the big beautiful puppy eyes and the ginger hair! The 2nd photo is 100% the way I see him in S4. In S1-3 he wears a lot of color but by S4 he’s all gray suits and no smiles in his eyes.
Sasha James - Eva Noblezada
Tumblr media
She has long hair and glasses and Not!Sasha has shorter Hadestown hair and no glasses and wears pretty much just black and white.
Tim Stoker - Tom Hopper
Tumblr media
From his Merlin days when he was a little more baby than he is in Umbrella Academy. I love the Hawaiian shirt thing that’s going on with the art. I always just think of him in well fitted t-shirts.
Melanie King - Amanda Fuller
Tumblr media
Except she has big fire orange hair and wears t-shirts and leather jackets.
Georgie Barker - H.E.R.
Tumblr media
I’m obsessed with the idea that Georgie and Melanie both have enormous hair.
Daisy Tonner - Indira Varma
Tumblr media
I don’t necessarily know why but she’s all I’ve ever seen Daisy as. Maybe because she has an incredible “don’t fuck with me” look.
Basira Hussein - I don’t have a specific actress in mind for her but she has a gorgeous round face dark pools for eyes and full lips. Idk if Basira wears a hijab all the time, I don’t think I have the right to headcanon one way or another, but if she isn’t wearing it she has curly black hair.
Elias Bouchard - Hear me out, I imagined him before I knew he was evil and hot. By the time I realized, it was too late for my brain to reliably change him. He’s a remolded memory of Uncle Jack in It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia only a little younger and with a Vincent Price pencil mustache and a very nice suit. I won’t add a picture of the actor because it’s not exactly him.
Michael - Bill Skarsgard
Tumblr media
It’s probably a gimme since he plays so many weird little guys but he’s beautiful and creepy at the same time and I like to imagine him with the long ringlets.
Helen - Nina Sosanya
Tumblr media
I mean, it feels obvious to me. Her smile is even mischievous.
Peter Lukas - Cary Elwes
There is a 10 image limit and I am not dropping my 2nd Martin picture for Peter Lukas. But Cary Elwes as of 2019ish idk if he looks more or less the same now. But I have a complicated relationship with The Lonely and it is important to me that Peter looks older, evil and also kind of fuckable.
OKAY THANKS FOR LETTING ME SHARE!

if you keep killing me how can i keep absolving?
update!
chapter two: claw marks pt.1
----------------------------------------
Years passed, and the slashed open flesh across Aemond's face eventually scarred. 
Grandmaester Orwyle told him time healed all, but Aemond had to disagree. Wounds remained. And the ones that don’t show on the body are the deepest and most hurtful than anything that bleeds. 
Aemond learned to pretend like he didn't see the blood across the floors anymore and the heads stacked atop the spikes that ran along the dry moat. He ignored the ash that fell like snowfall from the throne room, and he didn't even turn his head anymore when he heard children shrieking and wailing that resided nowhere in the Red Keep. Aemond did his best to distract himself throughout the years, desperate attempts to escape things he saw and the sense of insupportable loneliness from a dread of some strange, impending doom. He took to the sword as Helaena took to her needlepoint to cope with the things no others ever could, and after Lucerys, he didn't know what was premonitious and what was… derangement . 
Because he didn't just see what could be, but what things that had already happened. 
When Aemond dreamt of a man who wasn't his father sat atop the Iron Throne with his throat and wrists gushing blood that ran down the melded sword steps, he stood beneath it and knew he was seeing what had already been. As Aemond stared at Maegor's head that was unable to fall with the sword that had pierced through his jugular, holding him up like some grotesque marionette, he had to ask himself, were these images from events that had happened long before his birth, or just conjured up from his mind from all the stories he’d been told? Was he really seeing Maegor grab Alys Harroway from her bed with her slain sister strewn at her feet? Did he really see the Cruel King push his Queen out a window that now belonged to his sister?
Aemond was treated as sickly and unstable for years after he lost his eye, but he determined that would not keep him weak. With the support of Ser Criston, his champion when Aemond's mother was against him picking up a sword so soon when he still struggled just to write, he swung every aggression against every grievance against him with a practice sword.
Though Aemond did not only dedicate his time to swordplay but to his studies as well.
Learning to stop drawing attention to the things that happened around him that no one else saw, he turned his eyes down to the pages of books and also fought his nightmares and frustrations with a quill and parchment. Aemond would not admit to his disturbance any longer, no matter how many times his mother and Orwyle asked, and poured himself into his studies to find out what had happened to him. He studied human anatomy, combed through the entirety of the Red Keep's textbooks and diagrams that had anything to do with a person's head. He considered if Luke's blade hit a nerve so deep, or maybe even the fever had boiled him so hotly it had damaged some part of him that could explain the hallucinations he now suffered. But all this wouldn't explain how his sister Helaena had experienced no such trauma or damage to her head, but still sometimes looked up from her embroidering when the walls would glow red and begin to melt like wax from a candle, assuring him he didn't suffer these alarming occurances on his own.
Orwyle tutored him for years, and his mother had even invited reputable scholars from Oldtown and across the realm to visit the capital when Aemond's appetite grew too large for their Grandmaester to attend to on his own. 
Studying in the Citadel, he checked in every morning, the librarians and archivists recognized him easily enough by now and were always attentive to whatever he needed from the indices of their archives and catalogues. They were most generous in their own suggestions, some worth noting and some not, and were most charitable in letting him take notes from certain texts that had more restrictive rules on copying passages. There were a fews maesters he studied under, but with his royal status he was tutored more privately under Archmaester Crey and Archmaester Umbert, both renowned researchers in their areas of expertise that consisted of mathematics and healing.
When he first arrived, people stared. Even with the patch covering his mutilation, it was like everyone could discern who he was at a glance and knew just what was under the dark leather he hid behind. Nothing. All he was in the eyes of everyone, was a victim. Flayed open by his own kin, left to endure the mark permanently across his face. Some people stared with pity, but most were horrified.

For The other one, i love the angst, i love how you write Alec, and how you voice the every other characters emotions in your stories
...“I’m not putting my clan at risk for a Seelie..."
Raphael says and i was thinking the same thing while watching the show
Sure luke does everything to help clary cause she is his daughter and the rest of the pack just follows him cause that's what they do but why would the vampires help them knowing in the end they are gonna get in trouble with the clave
Maybe it's the character difference between the show!raphael and book!raphael and a speech they made about being united made him emotinal
what do you think?
(Also why did they take meliorn to the silent brothers for what 'questioning?' they are not judges it's says they are;
"archivists, researchers, librarians, scholars, doctors, priests, and healers")( i watched the show years ago i don't remember some things clearly)

I'm so happy to hear you liked both fics!!! And thank you for the ask!💜💜💜
The whole premise for that dragon!Alec fic was Alec being a big cuddly dragon that went SHINY the moment he saw Magnus and it was so much fun writing it. Just one big pile of fluff and cuteness.
Raphael and the other vampires' help made no sense. They just got rid of Camille, and she already created enough trouble for the Brooklyn Clan that they would want to keep their heads down and stay under the Clave's radar for a while—not risk their lives for a Seelie. More so given that they can't keep themselves safe behind wards or in another dimension like warlocks and the Seelie.
Luke and the werewolves made sense, given that Luke is Clary's dad and their alpha, but the vampires simply made no sense, so I decided to change that. So, I can only say that I have the same opinion as you have and I don't know why Raphael said yes in the series, except maybe Clary's speech struck a nerve because otherwise, it's just a big ???? for me.
In the show, the Silent Brothers kept the Soul Sword (probably for safekeeping? it was never really explained why, but I HC it as them having even better protections in place than the institutes given they live longer, are stronger, and know runes the standard shadowhunter doesn't). And, with Valentine being out and about, the Clave didn't want to risk moving the Soul Sword and having it stolen in transit, so they decided to send the people who needed to be questioned to the Silent City to be questioned by the Silent Brothers. Or that's how I HC it because otherwise, it makes no sense to me either.
I hope that explanation was somewhat clear, lol.
Love you too 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
