Ashley Dobson Disappears (MAG – 001 – Anglerfish) (Approx. Date)
MAG – 001 – Anglerfish:
Statement of Nathan Watts, regarding an encounter on Old Fishmarket Close, Edinburgh. Original statement given April 22nd 2012. Audio recording by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London.
Regarding: Figure in the shadows asking for a cigarette (Marlboro Red). Multiple missing persons.
People:
Ashley Dobson (missing May 2008)
Siobhan Dobson (presumed last name) (sister)
Sasha
Places:
Old Fishmarket Close, Edinburgh
Misc.:
Marlboro Red
"Can I have a cigarette?"
Key Language:
I was initially inclined to re-file this statement in the ‘Discredited’ section of the Archive, a new category I’ve created that will, I suspect, be housing the majority of these files.
However, Sasha did some digging into the police reports of the time and it turns out that between 2005 and 2010, when Mr Watts’ encounter supposedly took place, there were six disappearances in and around the Old Fishmarket Close: Jessica McEwen in November 2005, Sarah Baldwin in August 2006, Daniel Rawlings in December of the same year, then Ashley Dobson and Megan Shaw in May and June of 2008. Then finally, as Mr Watts mentioned, John Fellowes in March 2010. All six disappearances remain unsolved.
Baldwin and Shaw were definitely smokers, but there’s no evidence either way about the others, if they’re even connected. Sasha did find one other thing, specifically in the case of Ashley Dobson. It was a copy of the last photograph taken by her phone and sent to her sister Siobhan. The caption was “check out this drunk creeper lol”, but the picture is of a darkened, apparently empty, alleyway, with stairs leading up into it.
It appears to be the same alleyway which Mr. Watts described in his statement, the one that, according to the maps of the area, leads to Tron Square, but there doesn’t seem to be anyone in the photograph at all. Sasha took the liberty of running it through some editing programs, though, and increasing the contrast appears to reveals the outline of a long, thin hand, roughly at what would be waist level on a male of average height. I find it oddly hard to shake off the impression that it’s beckoning.

Y'know what I think would be cool. If one of the one-off statement givers came back. Like if some super minor character had a bigger role in tmagp. Or not even a bigger role they just have a single incident report and that's all.
I just think it would be fun. Like, Nathan Watts saw something Vast happen and reported it. Or Siobhan Dobson, sister of Ashley Dobson who was presumably taken by the Anglerfish. Just a really minor cameo for a really minor character

This year has been quite eventful, yet as fans, we found joy in numerous highlights, such as witnessing Derek's significant moments. His return to Broadway as Christian in 'Moulin Rouge' was particularly thrilling. Additionally, his involvement in various projects such as 'Pretty Little Liars: Summer School' and 'Private Princess Christmas', along with teaching at several musical theatre intensives, inspiring many theatre students. The official website for Derek premiered, and his private teaching lessons were available to all the musical theatre students and his fans. His solo concert performances sold out, and he participated in prestigious events like the 21st Century Broadway concerts at the Houston Symphony and Nova's Ball for charity, and made appearances with his closest friends at events. Furthermore, he joined Colton Ryan, George Salazar, and Jordan Dobson for Nick Blaemire and James Gardiner's 'Glory Days' Benefit Concert, engaged in a Q&A panel and performance with his 'Moulin Rouge' co-star Ashley Loren at the Museum of Broadway, and performed at Elsie Fest alongside the iconic Lizzy McAlpine and other Broadway talents.To top it off, he and Elycia welcomed another son, named Otto, making Dax a proud big brother!
I couldn’t be prouder of Derek! We all eagerly anticipate even brighter prospects ahead!
Wishing you all abundant blessings, joy, and love in the new year! Happy 2025! 🎉
Sincerely,
Dani

While I may have listened to the entirety of The Magnus Archives, I remember very little of it. So what I've decided to do is relisten and take far too detailed notes. So, here are the notes for episode 1!
(I can't promise the next episode will be in any timely manner)

no accompanying digital or audio versions of statements
Some statements will only record onto a tape recorder without severe audio distortion
Jon created a “Discredited” section
Siobhan Dobson, Ashley’s sister, received a photo from Ashley captioned “check out this drunk creature lol” he picture only shows the ally Nathan describes
increasing the contrast on the photo shows the outline of a beckoning, long, thin hand, roughly at waist level of a normal person
Statement notes:
Content of statement happened a few years before being reported
Nathan studies biochemistry at the University of Edinburgh
Renting a student flat down in Southside with other second year
Went to the Albanach (pub) for a “party”
Became overly drunk and walked home
Fell over, not too injured and rolled a cigarette to calm down
Asked for a cigarette by a figure in the dark
Expressionless face on figure
Figure swaying side to side as the floated slightly
Figure’s mouth didn’t move
When Nathan tried for his phone the figure folded at the waist and seemed to be pulled away
Nathan called a taxi home and slept late
Went to investigate, found nothing other than a cigarette (unsmoked) found under the blowout light
Could find no other similar stories but days later found missing posters
John Fellowes was still at the party as Nathan left
In the missing picture of John Fellowes he had a pack of cigarettes in his pocket, same brand as the one under the light

Statement of Nathan Watts (MAG – 001 – Anglerfish)
MAG – 001 – Anglerfish:
Statement of Nathan Watts, regarding an encounter on Old Fishmarket Close, Edinburgh. Original statement given April 22nd 2012. Audio recording by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London.
Regarding: Figure in the shadows asking for a cigarette (Marlboro Red). Multiple missing persons.
People:
Nathan Watts
Michael MacAulay (friend being celebrated -- Earth Sciences masters degree)
"The stranger"
Jessica McEwen (missing Nov. 2005)
Sarah Baldwin (missing Aug. 2006)
Daniel Rawlings (missing Dec. 2006)
Ashley Dobson (missing May 2008)
Megan Shaw (missing June 2008)
John Fellows (missing Mar. 2010)
Places:
Old Fishmarket Close, Edinburgh
Albanach, Royal Mile (bar)
Cowgate
Misc.:
Marlboro Red
"Can I have a cigarette?"
Gentle swaying (the stranger)
Key Language:
I was startled out of my thoughts by the words as I thought I had been alone. Quickly trying to compose myself and looking around, I noticed a small alleyway on the opposite side of the street. It was very narrow and completely unlit with a short staircase leading up. I could see a light fixture a little way up the wall at its entrance, but it either wasn’t working or wasn’t turned on, meaning that beyond a few steps the alley was shrouded in total darkness.
Stood there, a couple of stairs from the street, was a figure. It was hard to tell much about them as they were mostly in the shadows, though if I’d had to guess I would have said the voice sounded male. They seemed to sway, ever so slightly, as I watched, and I assumed that they, like me, were probably a little bit drunk. I lit my own cigarette and held out my tobacco towards them, though I didn’t approach, and asked if they were ok with a roll-up. The figure didn’t move except to continue that gentle swaying. Writing it down now, it seems so obvious that something was wrong. If I hadn’t been so drunk maybe I’d have noticed quicker, but even when the stranger asked the question again, “Can I have a cigarette?” utterly without intonation, still I didn’t understand why I was so uneasy. I stared at the stranger and as my eyes began to adjust I could make out more details. I could see that their face appeared blank, expressionless, and their skin seemed damp and slightly sunken, like they had a bad fever. The swaying was more pronounced now, seeming to move from the waist, side to side, back and forth.
By this point I had finished rolling a second cigarette and gingerly held it out towards them, but I didn’t get any closer. I had decided that if this weirdo wanted a cigarette, they were going to need to come out of the creepy alleyway. They didn’t come closer, didn’t make any movement at all except for that damn swaying. For some reason the thought of an anglerfish popped into my head, the single point of light dangled into the darkness, hiding the thing that lures you in. “Can I have a cigarette?” It spoke again in the same flat voice and I realised exactly what was wrong. Its mouth was closed, had been the whole time. Whatever was repeating that question, it wasn’t the figure in the alleyway. I looked at their feet and saw that they weren’t quite touching the ground. The stranger’s form was being lifted, ever so slightly, and moved gently from side to side.
I dropped the cigarette and grabbed for my phone, trying to turn on the torch. I don’t know why I didn’t run or what I hoped to see in that alley, but I wanted to get a better look. As soon as I took out my phone, the figure disappeared. It sort of folded at the waist and vanished back into the darkness, as if a string had gone taut and pulled it back. I turned on the torch and stared into the alley, but I saw nothing. Just silence and darkness. I staggered back up to the Royal Mile, which still had lights and people, and found a taxi to take me home.

I did it lol enjoy if people really like it I might do more~ Kudos if you get all the TMA references I sprinkled into the 'main plot'. Cw: long post, smoking mention
There is more than one way to archive a statement – Welcome to Night Vale.
It is not unusual for people to go missing in Night Vale. People go missing, or are taken and called missing by any number of the shadowy organisations which run Night Vale all the time. I'm mentioning this because a missing persons was slipped onto my desk this morning by Intern Gertrude which means I'm supposed to report on it. I told Intern Gertrude that many many people go missing in Night Vale and they almost always go missing for a good reason so it's not really news. She shrugged her shoulders and made the universal sign for 'passing it along so Station Management doesn't eat me'. So I guess I'm doing a missing person's report today.
Ahem – Missing: Jessica McEwen. Last seen around the Old Fishmarket Close. Above average height and weight. Brown hair with a pink streak. Hazel green eyes. Last seen wearing a t-shirt and jeans, her purse slung in a carefree manner over one arm as she strode up this long road in Old Town Night Vale sometime during the late evening/early night. If you have any information about Jessica's whereabouts, please whisper it into the nearest Sheriff's Secret Police hidden microphone. So pretty much just grab anything and start whispering.
It's strange, listeners, but I actually have memories of Old Fishmarket Close. That's where all the cool kids would go to smoke during their lunch period. I was uh...never invited to join – which is fine because I've also never smoked. Terrible habit.
Now for today's sponsor:-
The stranger is standing in the unlit alleyway. The stranger is swaying from side to side. You cannot see their face. Your stare at the stranger and they are expressionless. You stare at the stranger and they do not stop swaying. Sweat breaks out along your brow and upper-lip. You lick the sweat from your lips and it tastes smokey. The stranger is not coming any closer nor are they getting any further away. It's a lot darker now but your eyes cannot help but see the stranger. Swaying. Swaying.
You stare harder. What are you trying to see? The mind is a scattered thing. Stop seeing. Move forward. Move towards the stranger. Their mouth does not open and yet you hear them clearly ask as your trembling hands reach for the packet bulging in your front pocket;
“Can I have a cigarette?”
Kindly, you step forward to oblige.
Marlboro;- ignoring the warning labels means you consent to the health issues. Come to flavour.
Oh well I mean, that was a little awkward giving what I said before. Is it really alright for us to be sponsored by a tobacco company...? It's not like I get to choose who gives us money. Oh well.
Intern Gertrude is gesturing to the missing persons report that I read earlier. Ah I see. It's a missing persons report plural, not singular. The sheets of paper are so thin I didn't notice there was more. Here is the full list of missing people;- Jessica McEwen as mentioned, Sarah Baldwin, Daniel Rawlings, Ashley Dobson, Megan Shaw and most recently John Fellowes just...a couple of nights ago actually. Wow and they all went missing around Old Fishmarket Close! What a coincidence.
I'm just getting word that the Sheriff's Secret Police are taking the case very seriously and have blocked off both entrances to Old Fishmarket Close. They are calling the names of the missing people into the alleyway alternating between encouraging them to come out and threatening them with imprisonment if they don't. Sounds like they've got it all under control.
It seems my earlier sponsorship ad for Marlboro cigarettes has not gone down well with some members of our community. Night Vale PTA member Diane Crayton issued a statement saying that the local radio should not be promoting deadly habits to the young impressionable minds of Night Vale. Her son Josh Crayton was listening and immediately took on the form of a tall smoking chimney stack. It won't be long before other children are smoking too, because the radio told them it was cool and as everyone knows you have to do what the radio says is cool.
I can only apologise Diane, as a concerned uncle myself I want nothing more than the best for the children of Night Vale. I'm going to write a note to Station Management asking that we maybe drop today's sponsor and try for a new one. Intern Gertrude will deliver it and after the mandatory 24 hours of grovelling at the foot of Station Managements door I'm sure we'll get a positive response.
Let's take a look at the community calender.
Sunday is getting way too cosy with being both the start and end of a week depending on how you look at it.
Monday recent college graduate Joshua Gillespie fresh from his vacation in Amsterdam will be daring people to open the coffin of unvarnished pale yellow wood bound tightly by a thick chain that he's been watching for a friend. You know the one. It has the words 'DO NOT OPEN' scratched into the lid in three inch high letters which just makes it even more tempting to open.
He has the key and has almost opened it several times before chickening out. It's not that he's afraid of coffins, he says, it's just that it's a weird kind of coffin, ya know? Like if you put things on top of it there's this soft insistent scratching sound from within and it's always warm even after being inside and out of the sun for ages. Anyone interested in opening it will first have to get the key from the block of ice Gillespie has put it in so as to stop himself from being tempted.
Tuesday is imagine a farm day in which all citizens are required to sit still no matter what they are doing for at least ten minutes and imagine a farm. It can be any kind of farm you like but must contain at least one animal and at least one statue to an old god of fertility.
Wednesday is cursed literature day at the library where books from the collection of Jurgen Leitner will be proudly displayed by cursed literature enthusiast and librarian tamer Mary Keay. One of these books is written in fine ink over every inch of her skin making it difficult to read or comprehend but for those dedicated enough to the craft of reading what you should not it's sure to be worthwhile.
Thursday is a blank to-do list you restlessly tap your pencil against not knowing how to start. You have things to do, but should you order them based on how difficult they are to get done or based on how quickly you need them doing? Do you have to follow the order of the list anyway or is it okay to just do bits here and there? Where did you even get these illegal writing implements?
Friday is esoteric garbage day. This day only comes once every blood moon, so be sure to leave out all your bags of teeth, haunted dolls heads, frantic prayers to your god written over and over on one long thin strip of paper and anything else that doesn't go in your usual recycling bin.
Saturday Siobhan Dobson, sister of the missing Ashley Dobson, says she might show us the apparently empty picture of Old Fishmarket Close that her sister took shortly before disappearing providing that she hasn't been returned or found dead. It's not a very useful picture, Siobhan said, but people who like true crime might enjoy looking at it for morbid curiosities sake anyway.
Sounds like another busy week! Whilst we ponder how any one of us could become missing at any point, I take you now to...the weather.
{Checkout 'Lure of the Rock Pools' by Marine Girls}
Local university student Nathan Watts says he thinks he knows what has been taking those who linger at night around Old Fishmarket Close. Last night he was out drinking with some friends of his and having had maybe a few too many started to feel violently ill. He decided it was time to walk home. He was cutting up Old Fishmarket Close when he took a tumble and was just getting up when he heard someone asking him if he had a cigarette.
The person they saw was possibly male, their face expressionless, their skin damp and slightly sunken like they had a bad fever. Nathan says that the figure was swaying from side to side a couple of inches off of the ground, moving mostly by the waist and otherwise motionless – not even opening their mouth when they asked their question again.
Nathan offered the figure one of the cigarettes he'd just rolled but it didn't make a motion to come closer and get it, nor could Nathan made his fear-frozen feet move any closer to it. He decided that he wanted to take a better look at the figure so fumbled for his phone. No sooner had it brought it out than the figure folded in two and was pulled rapidly back into the darkness. When Nathan was able to shine light into the alleyway it was completely empty. He says he has no doubt in his mind that this was the thing which had lured away those other people.
Upon this release, City Council finally revealed that all of this was actually a part of a new anti-smoking initiative they have going which involves reprogramming a Marlboro representative anglerfish to target smokers in dark alleyways. So basically don't smoke and stay out of dark small spaces, they said, it'll be fine.
When reporters mentioned that only two of the missing people were confirmed smokers city council waved all of their hands in unison and made a scoffing sound in the back of their throats.
Diane Crayton expressed approval of the City Council's new initiative, believing it will surely scare most kids and many adults into never smoking. She asked if vaping would be considered along the same lines, or if the initiative only targetted the smoking of tobacco and other such products.
City Council groaned deep in their many throats and said; “Oh we have a special plan for those kinds of people...vapers.” and then they groaned again for three minutes straight before ending the press conference with another disgusted muttering of “vapers...”
The missing people are still missing, but they were all smokers anyway (probably) so I guess that's alright? The Sheriff's Secret Police has taken away the blockades around Old Fishmarket Close and congratulated themselves on doing absolutely nothing. So, that's that.
I guess if City Council is against smoking then our own stance against today's sponsor will go down much more kindly with Station Management...I hope Intern Gertrude is okay. I might go and check.
Stay tuned next for several people breathing deeply and audibly into the microphone,
goodnight Night Vale, goodnight.
You have no idea how tempted I am to write a kind of... parody fic where I take TMA episodes and switch them to the WTNV format i.e. take the plot and act like it's just something casually happening in NV.

Charlton 2 - 3 Morecambe
Carl Stockton scored a brace to give Morecambe’s League One survival chances a huge boost as they beat Charlton 3-2. The visitors took an eighth-minute lead when the forward hit a stunning strike from distance past Ashley Maynard-Brewer. Morecambe continued to look dangerous in attack and Arthur Gnahoua saw his solo run blocked after 14 minutes by George Dobson. Charlton looked ineffective in…

Ian’s Blog 22nd December 2024
At about 1 hour and 5 minutes into this radio show you can hear my Mellotron themed Christmas song which was mixed and mastered by Lord Zarquon
All he wants for Christmas is a Mellotron
So I’ve written this song for Lord Zarquon
The Moody Blues had one and he wants one too
Though they’re expensive you know that’s true
He’s got lots of keyboards but you’ll hear him complain
That the price of a Mellotron is rather insane
And just before my song you can hear a tune by Vinny Peculiar called All He Wants For Christmas Is A Gibson Flying V which mentions Brixham with the line a holiday in Brixham with my stupid family.
Here is the full list of the songs that were played on the show
Alternative Roots 15/12/24

Archivist: However, Sasha did some digging into the police reports of the time and it turns out that between 2005 and 2010, when Mr. Watts’ encounter supposedly took place, there were six disappearances in and around the Old Fishmarket Close: Jessica McEwen in November 2005, Sarah Baldwin in August 2006, Daniel Rawlings in December of the same year, then Ashley Dobson and Megan Shaw in May and June of 2008.
