#cryptid tma

Just some good old, sad cryptids. Anyways, just a silly au that no one has any context for except for @henry-real and me.

Saw this post, blacked out, and then came back to this.

I manifested this at 3am last night and I don’t know how I feel about it but it exists now so this is my contribution for @jonmartinweek day 5, Criptids | Webs and Weaving <3333

Cue silly color palette moment

Sometimes I forget I customized a Barbie doll a while ago to be jon and that he’s just sitting in my closet staring at me until I turn on my light towards my closet and see just like. A tiny jon sitting in a tiny desk with a conspiracy board behind him and tons of eyes staring back at me and I’m like “this is how tma is supposed to be represented”

About to start next AU and I am stoked!

New series will be centered around Jon, Martin, Tim and Sasha as they work on a cryptid documentary crew for a web show. In this AU cryptids are real and well documented, so the team is a specialty wildlife film crew for sightings as they are still rarer than others.

After rising in popularity the team is sent to America to film cryptids with its wide range of sightings. They start up filming with a new camera person, Martin!

Wouldn't be an Archives AU without a rocky start between Jon and Martin.

I can't wait to start posting the story and take y'all along for the ride.

From an au with @sociallyanxiousdragon where Jon offers for Martin to stay with him after his worms ordeal

okay

this one is for all the ancient myth, folklore, urban myth, cryptid and supernatural people of tumblr

i am trying to start a folklore reading group on discord for 2025 covering all of the above categories

every month we pick a category of folklore to read around. categories can be anything. could centre around culture/period/place (eg ancient chinese myth and legend) or individual text (eg the aeneid, the poetic edda) or specific monster (eg vampires) or specific approach (eg theories of myth and their puprose eg joseph campbell)

anything is fair game from aztec myths to angelology to modern urban myths to aliens and cryptids

wed be a reading group but SUPER low key so it can fit in with everyones lives

like. im not gonna assign the same book to everyone to read by the end of the month

use whatever sources you wish - the internet, your local library, buy the specific book you think looks most useful, read/watch fictionalised retellings you think look fun

we can all use our own sources and most importantly we can recommend the ones we find the most useful to the rest of the group to help each other (or just to gush about it)!! < 3

oh and if youre an artist and you want to make art (drawing the monsters/creatures, writing your own adaptation of the story, write a self-insert where you get to shoot the monsters w/ dean winchester or dana scully or smth, writing mothman x reader fanfiction) youll get so many brownie points and everyone will think youre really cool

point is well all be reading the same broader points. so we can chat about it and discuss interpretations and make memes and show love for your favourites or complain about the dryness of your least favourites and there is so much weirdness to make fun of in myth and folklore

every month we will vote on the next topic (dont worry there will be a channel to argue about why your suggestion is the best haha) and by the end of the year well all know so much weird shit itll be great. dont you want every month of your 2025 to be defined by a weird little folklore era

well its about halfway through january when i post this meaning we'll only have half a month for the first one, no time for a vote either so if you want to hop in and start nerding out immediately january is going to be your

~ ancient japanese myth era ~

well discuss sources in the discord if you dont know where to start

but if you just want to join to wait it out so you can vote on next months subject, youre so welcome to

everyone welcome. contribute as much or as little as you like. friendliness and good vibes only!!

also ill be making a tag, "folklore2025" for people to post stuff related to this reading project thing on their tumblr if they wish

TMA; 78 So I may have spent the last 2 weeks literally obsessively listening to The Magnus Archives for the first time ever [ i am in love -- only part way through s3 so no spoilers please!! ] I had to draw Michael -- I love this lil dude so much. He's so unnerving but its so good. Whatever gender "distortion" is, I want it lmao.

I'd love to see some Jon if you have some to offer

oh jon my jon
