hi, karim here, voice of simon fairchild in the magnus archives

My only friend was the man in the Moon And even, sometimes, he would go away, too (lost boy, ruth b)

Thoughts on drinking the vast? Like oh no a big scary ocean. Drink it. Glug glug mf.

If the corruption is a fear u can kick (Alex's words), the vast is a fear I can drink.

Do not underestimate how dehydrated I am.

How did you come to this conclusion?

And um it’s good? I like it!

Also drink water!

I <3 old men

Lukas without fading out of existence:

Also: most of this is getting a feel of the designs themselves before I fw them, I’ve drew Elias before but listening more made me change it more! I thought he was just a little freak! (He is)

Tmi gang and their bags

I might or not make this solely to push my secret agenda

Alec

Alec loves how big bags can carry so much paperwork, and weapons (he’s working late cause he’s the consul). Magnus practically jumped at the chance to replace Alec's tattered old duffle bag with things more durable and better quality. Also, Alec gets a customized birkin, cause he said others are ugly

Magnus

Putting aesthetic over functionality, Magnus doesn’t even bring bags most of the time, just poofing things up from the air with his magic. And other times the ones he chose would be so tiny, whose experimenting design or material render them unable to carry more than an immaculate vibe

Clary

Clary would get simple tote bags and paint/put her charms, decorations, and beads on them, making them extremely pretty and unique. Also, she lowkey stumble in some thrift store in NYC for cool artsy bohemian vintage pieces

Jace

The only bag Jace believes is the weapon bag he tried to sneak babies out for demon hunting. Else, it's Jace, his jacket, condom, and the 100th weapon he carries against the world

Izzy

She's always up to the latest it girl bags. her siblings wonder where she got all of them considering their parents were never around much. Also, those bags can’t carry more than lipstick sometimes, but who cares? Cause how many letters are in Isabelle? She ate

Simon

Even his bag is very your-nerdy-next-door-neighbor-crush-who-of-course-is-in-a-band type. Simple canvas bag that when the mood strikes, Simon decorates them with pins and stickers. He also has a prized leather satchel, courtesy of Izzy

i can understand being a jonah magnus hater. i can understand being a peter lukas hater. but if you hate simon fairchild, i do not understand you. not one bit. you are a liar of some kind, surely

[nephriteknight]

so a while back i made a post about what my blorbos' playstyles would be like in botc/social deduction games in general, and at the time i didn't include tma because they have so much highly specific trauma and dangerous eldritch appetites that this would be terrible for, but i just can't stop thinking about the very silly scenario where the tma characters play botc together. it would go so badly.

the banned character list includes fortune teller, spy, snake charmer, oracle, evil twin, vigormortis, no dashii, pacifist, cannibal, cult leader, fisherman, pixie, golem, plague doctor, organ grinder, and ojo, because elias keeps cheating. ojo and oracle somehow keep ending up in the bag anyway.

daisy gets way too into hunting down the demon. Guns Will Be Drawn.

jon and tim handle this game Extremely Predictably. i just know s1 tim would adore botc but s3 tim is having an awful time. oh great yeah one of our friends is a shape shifting demon lying to our faces? perfect. jon is on the verge of a panic attack but instead of breaking down he's just interrogating everyone very aggressively. hey, at least everyone believes he's on the good team.

basira solves the game right away and spends the rest of the game trying to convince everyone else. only georgie believes her.

martin is very good at being evil in these kinds of games (and also benefits from people not expecting him to be good at it), so when he pulls the demon he could demolish good, but, uh, he's honestly not sure jon could handle that right now so he gets caught on purpose without letting anyone else realize he threw.

elias insisted peter would attend and he did not in fact show. luckily no one believed he would come so it's not really a problem. ("you called it a 'social deduction' game, elias, it's in the name! no i'm not coming--")

...annabelle's the storyteller? i mean. she obviously would if she was there. i feel like sasha gives me st vibes as well but i might just be projecting again.

multiple games are ruined because jon accidentally compels the demon to tell him their role. one of those was not fully an accident.

simon is having a grand old time but he really doesn't give a shit about winning/the game which is less of a problem when he's good but very much a problem for his teammates when he's evil.

melanie draws the psychopath "by chance" several times and enjoys it way too much. daisy handles an outed evil player whom town can't easily execute exactly as poorly as you'd expect. i cannot emphasize enough how unlikely it is that canon team archives could play this game without at least one person getting hurt, killed, or giving in to the dark powers completely.

helen is eating it all up. literally. (elias is still pissed that the spy got banned.) she still never outright lies, which unfortunately for everyone else but fortunately for her (and simon, who thinks its hilarious) means she can't tell outright truths when she's good either or it'll look suspicious when she's evil. no one is ever fully certain what she is or what she's doing. pure chaos and we love her for it. (we being me; team archives does not in fact love her for it.)

elias is still cheating, but when they threaten to fill the room with eyeless dolls he decides to quit while he's (not) ahead and just watch from his office like an eldritch twitch chat.

What if there was an au where Jon is an undergrad looking to write a dissertation to get a PhD and in order to get that, he agreed to research the ecosystem on a remote and tiny island somewhere off the coast of the UK for a mysterious benefactor named Simon Fairchild? What if he was fine with the isolation, preferring it to being around people, and did his due diligence recording everything from how many eggs were in the nests of the birds on the cliffs to how much garbage washed up on shore. What if he started growing feathers himself, waking up sick every morning. Unable to eat food. Slowly, painfully turning into a bird that throws up plastic and shards of bone. What if Simon Fairchild put him there for a bet? Would that be wild? What if the son of the other person involved in the bet, Peter Lukas, overheard them both talking about the poor bastard they dumped on an island for the world's shittiest Eldritch tug of war, just to see what happens? What if Martin gets it into his head to rescue Jon and hijacks the supply boat they've been sending to the island to keep Jon alive and well stocked for his work. What if Jon has wings now and is very sick. What if Martin absolutely wrecks the boat because he has no idea how to steer and dock it, and Jon rescues him. What if Martin's first words upon waking up in Jon's bed are 'I came to save you'. What if Jon doesn't want to be saved. What if they fell in love. What if they slept together in the same bed and bound Jon's wings so he couldn't fly away and eat weird shit. What if it was domestic but they both know they've been abandoned on the island to die, because whatever Jon is becoming is too dangerous to let live. What if Martin tells Jon he can eat him, if he wants to one day when he's had enough. What if Jon tells Martin that afterwards, he'll just fling himself off the cliff. What if they kiss and spend one final day together? Would that be fucked up or what?

in the same way wolverine gets passed around the X Mansion like a blunt, I think the same can be said about Jace Herondale and the mortal instruments crew

[shititsarobyn]

Ok Ik three of these are from one drawing but they needed their close ups so shush

So we got arguably the best duo of tma Tim and Sasha (the real one this time) along with Simon Fairchild e we ho despite being an avatar of the vast i headcannon as near-sighted. Bc it’s funny to me.

[starleska]

i’ve got a british silly horror guy to recommend… the michael distortion from the magnus archives!!!! since it’s a podcast he doesn’t really have a visual design except for some descriptions but the fanart is wonderful!!!! ALSO HIS LAUGH?!?!

😳😳😳 oh. oh God hold ON a sec-!!!!!

screaming and gripping you by the collar. ooooh you are one of a NUMBER of people who have begged me to continue listening to The Magnus Archives, and now you've got me sorely tempted 🙈💖 i listened to a few episodes years ago and really enjoyed it, but i think with all the World Events Occurring it just slipped from my focus!!!

but wow, Michael is something else...😳 you know me well and have excellent taste 👉👈 i ADORE that his laugh somehow sounds like a spiral?! and the fanart for him is absolutely nuts, so so creative!! all those fan designs kick so much ass...as a Welcome to Night Vale veteran, it's a lot of fun being in a fandom with more room for creativity...you've very much piqued my interest, you bastard 😂😂 on the other side of that, i have a dear friend who insists to me i would rather like Simon Fairchild...took one listen to his voice and nearly got knocked out because of how similar he sounds to the Sixth Doctor 🙈💖💖💖 seems like The Magnus Archives is a great place to pick up blorbos, eh? i will definitely start listening again soon...and am always open to more suggestions from the podcast 😉 great ask, thanks so much!! :3c

[sky-grandpa]

Is there a Peter Lukas on here or an Elias Bouchard on here?

Please I need to know!

I need to annoy them!

[lurafita]

I have decided we need more text messages between the group

Simon: @.everyone! I have important news! Clary: Simon, it's 2am. Izzy: Simon! Wtf! I was sleeping! Maia: This better be important. Magnus: Yes, it better be. Simon: It is! Me and Jace are in love! Clary: … Izzy: … Maia: … Jace: Really, babe, you could have waited to tell them until tomorrow. Simon: I could not! This is the most surprising and pressing news in the last decade! Clary: Simon, I don't know how to tell you this… Maia: We've known for like, two years. Simon: Wha??? Izzy: I'm going back to bed. The next time you wake me only to tell me things I already know, I will end you. Simon: But… but… How could you all have known? I didn't even know! Max: Dude, please, it was so obvious. Simon: Then why didn't anyone tell me?!… Wait, Max? What are you doing up this late? Isn't it a school night? Max: Woke up from all the noise of Magnus trying to wrestle the bow out of Alec's hands so he can't go and shoot you with it for waking him up. Clary: Damn Simon, was nice knowing you. Maia: At least you and Jace had a few hours of not being oblivious idiots before you die. Jace: I told you to wait until tomorrow! Simon: Magnus! I'm counting on you to keep your more murderous half detained for long enough for me to hide! Izzy: RIP

[the-mortal-incorrects]

Jocelyn: Luke and I- Clary: Are going on a date? Jocelyn: What? No, we- Simon: Fucking finally.
