do names have power in the magnus universe? they didnt really, iirc, in tma. michael "that is a real name, yes" the distortion, nikola "i killed my father and took his last name" orsinov, jurgen "put my name on spooky books and it ended up killing me", the lukases "connected by blood and name but not much else", the fairchilds "its just a name for a bunch of Vastards".
titles, they have power, in a way. we know that. the Archivist and the Pupil, for example.
this is all to say, could it be dangerous for Alice to insist on naming JMJ? she has been told off by two people on-record atp, even though it seems innocent enough. so why are they so against naming the voices? are they just annoyed? or is there a deeper meaning?

Ask Rules:
When asking, keep it atleast Pg-13, as some of our Mods are Minors
Please Please PLEASE be patient with us! We may not immediately get to your ask! And that's okay. Even though there are a lot of us, we are still human and have to talk about some things when it comes to certain asks.
When asking, please specify which Character you are talking to (it can be up to three per ask), and what Mod(s) those characters are for.
Don't be shy to ask about Spouses from different Bishops! They interact with each other and often Cameo in the Character Arcs of other Spouses.
Mods can set their own boundaries when it comes to their asks, and will do so on their introduction pages, so please make sure you're also following those.
Misgender our Mods/Characters and your ask may be ignored. It's just the price of being disrespectful 🤷♀️
We reserve the right to not answer any ask, without an explanation. This Blog is supposed to be fun for us, so let's keep it that way! <3
Be respectful in your ask. We don't want to deal with B¡tchy askers, wether you be in Anon or out of Anon.
Do not be mad if one Mod answers for another, as this could be for a plethora of different reasons, wether that be the Mod you're originally asking about was unclear, or they just couldn't do your ask.
On that note feel Free to ask away! This will be updated if needed in the future, and we may close the inbox if we feel too swamped, but otherwise go nuts!

it probably never got to the concept art stage and if it did probably wasnt substantive enough to show off... but even as someone who's not a huge intern fan, i am a little sad there wasnt any mention of that mentathalon/intern competition that has some cut lines in the files (iirc its how we knew some of the kids' last names up until now when theyre finally spelled in the art book)
no choice but to rise in the game journalism ranks until i can arrange an interview with tim schafer and co and sit them in a room to ask 50 questions abt irrelivant minor cut content that didnt get mentioned in the book bc it wasnt that important tbh but I WANNA KNOOOWWWW

Just had a bit of an au idea. Idk if its an au, since its still the characters from the movies only they get transported into another universe, but still.
(Also, this is just an idea, nothing here is concrete. Some parts are still not finished quite yet.)
So how this universe works is that everyone has "rolls." These rolls being fictional archytypes, aka "the hero," "the main villain," "the side kick," "the damsel in distess," ect, ect. Now, each roll has a main objective. The main villain wants to conquer the world, the hero wants to stop the main villain, stuff like that. How you do it is irrelivent, getting there is all that matters.
Im thinking this world kinda revolves around stories, and the creation of them, but i still need to figure out how that would work. (Im thinking its kinda like shrek where a bunch of fairytale characters are thrown together into the same world, except the fairytale's are being made while everything plays out.)
Overall though, the world is very fantasy themed.
Now somehow, and idk how yet, stone, robotnik, and sonic get transported to this world. Each getting their own role and objective, with them needing to complete it in order to get back home. Not sure how completing it allows them to get back home, but i'll figure it out. Maybe they fucked with something they shouldn't have, and the price for it was needing to craft a story/fairytale in order to return, idk. Either way they need to do it.
So, as for their roles and objectives: Stone gets cast into the role of the main villain. He has two objectives, to 1. Conquer the neighboring kingdom (although thats subject to change,) and 2. To keep the damsel in distress to himself, forever. Of course, as the main villain, he has them captured already. But, when stone came into this world they were already captured for him, so he has never met them.
This is very important to note, because the damsel in distress, is robotnik. Honestly, i just made him the damsel on distress for shits and giggles, (and because hed look sick as hell in a wedding dress,) but its also semi important story wise.
As the damsel in distress, robotniks main objective is to "escape his roll as prisoner." Not to escape the castle, but to not be a prisoner anymore. Obviously, being a very litteral person, robotnik takes this as needing to physically escape.
Anyhow, sonic is important because he's the linch pin here.
You see, in order to escape, they have to complete their main objective: But, completing the main objective only returns the person who completed it home. So if robotnik were to escape then he would return home, however, since stone failed his quest to keep robotnik as his prisoner forever, he would be trapped in that world forever since he cant finish his main objective with robotnik gone. This naturally puts stone and robotnik at odds, even if they dont want to fight, but this is where sonic comes in clutch.
Sonic's roll here is "the evil henchman." Meaning he works for stone and helps stone. but, since stone's busy conquering the neighboring kingdom, he also looks after robotnik and makes sure he doesnt escape.
this is an important position for him to be in since his main objective is to "get the damsel in distress, and the main villain married, withought telling them his objective." If you were wondering, this, is why robotnik and stones objectives are so vauge. Its so that each of their objectives can be completed through marriage. Because Robotnik isnt a prisoner anymore if he marries stone, and stone has technically kept robotnik forever if he marries robotnik.
The only problem here is that sonic cant tell them his objective, otherwise, he fails it. Meaning he has to get them together in secret, which is harder said than done.
So while robotnik and stone (once they meet) are freaking out about how their going to complete both of their objectives.. with robotnik straight up avoiding stones proposed plan to sacrifice himself: sonic is in the backround loseing his mind over trying to get these two idiots to just KISS ALREADY!
Anyways, i might talk about more of the ideas i have for this au, because i do have more. But eh, idk. Depends on how motivated im feeling to flesh this out.
