We Happy Few x Lethal Company AU (We Lethal Few?)

In this AU/crossover, the events of WHF take place after the war on Titan, where a bunch of people were drafted and/or killed during the fight.

Post-war, Arthur and the other protagonists get hired by The Company, with Arthur, Sally and Ollie being the first crew the story would follow.

Although he still gathers scrap, Arthur also takes time to search the Exo-Moons for Percy, although the likelihood of finding him- especially with all the dangerous creatures on said Moons -dwindles every day.

Sally is an expert in relation to helping the others navigate the facilities and mansions, and uses her knowledge of chemistry and medicine to make more insulin supplies for Ollie. She stays back on the ship to care for Gwen and help with navigation.

Ollie is the self-assigned captain. He detests The Company for treating people as expendable assets, but at the same time he enjoys the challenge of the missions. Doing his job has helped him sober up, which the others in his crew are proud of him for.

Altogether, the crew is made up of great assets to The Company :)

Next crew would be Roger, James, Nick Lightbearer, and Victoria.

I’ll probably write more about all of this later, but please feel free to share your ideas and stuff if you have ‘em :)

It's finished! It feels like I've been sitting on this one for far too long, and I am happy to have it done at last~ Thanks to anyone who's taken the time to read it!

[fall0utboi12]

I got some new markers for illuminations yesterday so I draw Gwen and Maevis to try them out. This is them around 10 years old.

Percy and Arthur decided their daughter have to have matching outfits like they did as kids (though I’m pretty sure Arthur and Percy’s were school uniforms)

[crashpill]

Her and Gwen🥰❤️

I would never have thought of drawing her and Gwen first but I love them both! i love the end result. 😍🥰

I hope you like it as much as I like it!

I used a base because I've never draw children^^"

[joyful-downer]

(Wrote this for someone asking for WHF headcanons on IG and thought I'd post it here. It's not the best thing I've written but it's the idea that counts. I hope you enjoy 💕)

While wandering down the streets at night, Foggy Jack eventually came across Sally's home. When he heard an oh so familiar cry from above him curiousity got the best of him and he broke into the house, going upstairs. As he opened the door to Sally's bedroom he found Gwen, laying inside her crib and crying for her mommy who was currently out taking care of some business. The cries reminded him of his past life with his daughter so his fatherly instincts immediately kicked in and he took the small child into his arms to calm it down, singing it to sleep with that typical soothing Uncle Jack voice.

Since that night he would always patrol the Kings Road to make sure noone else broke inside the house. When Sally ran off with Gwen he was secretly guarding her from the fog and shadows, making sure noone would stop them until they arrived safely at the boat's house.

I turned them into warrior cats for fully self-indulgent reasons

TMAGP EP 27 REACTION (SPOILERS)

Istg my dumbass keeps forgetting when Thursdays are until @notachamealeon reminds me that a tmagp ep dropped

Sam is being bitchy akhskajd literally is this bc he's still feeling good about himself after him and Celia had GASP heterosexual intercourse???

Poor Gwen having to pick up the slack she really is trying her best I love my girl.

"I've got a SPECIAL list for her" hey Gwen that's kind of fucking gay of you-

OH ITS GRANDPA LOOK AT THAT GRANDPA IS BACK

...why is there no explanation? Like why is there nothing about what this is related to, like a prelude or introduction? Augustus just...started talking??

"Than to light within them that muses' fire of inspiration" it might just be a metaphor but whenever the older cases related to the institute or the experiment bring up fire, I become a bit wary

Okay so the institute in the universe seems to be founded for the sake these alchemic experiments as opposed to Jonah Magnus creating it to serve The Eye in TMAverse

Just for anyone that wants to know, Chartism was a working-class movement for political reform in the UK during the 1830s to 1850s. That's what the second journal entry is referencing

Okay the single coachman reminds of one of Jonah Magnus's livers in his regency era harem who got fucked over by a Lukas, I think it was something about the coachman entirely turning his head 180 degrees to face backwards the entire drive or something.

Oh okay so coachman is part of the coach. Lovely.

Okay so we're focusing on the growler? And I think it's because the coachman and the coach attachment is probably due to alchemy of some sort?

Oh great. The cab ate the man. Wonderful.

BOYLE???? AS IN ROBERT BOYLE???? Wait no can't be him he died in the 1600s I remember that from AP Chemistry

Oh my god he convinced his own colleague to go into the growler dude this is giving Jonah Magnus it REALLY is

WAIT. SHUT THE FUCK UP. "operated by me status as founder" SHUT THE FUCK UP I JUST SAID ITS GIVING JONAH MAGNUS

APOLLO REALLY FUCKING HOT ME WITH THE GIFT OF PROPHECY WHAT THE FUCK

Alice my wife hating prime ministers is just So Real also with how viciously she hates the prime minister I would have thought my girl was Desi too since I hate India's prime mini-

I'm gonna shut up

TRANS CONFIRMATION I MEAN WE KNEW BUT YESSSS ALICE CANONICALLY TRANS

Dyhard is SO endgame LOOK AT THEM

"Magnus guy" SHUT THE FUCK UP NO WAY OH my GOD

What is happening. Someone please come pick me up I'm scared why are we talking about sex

Oh Sam. I think it's kind of obvious that Celia does find this like a casual relationship. Kind of like "well if it goes well, it goes well. If not, whatever" He's definitely taking it more seriously than her.

I do also think she's kinda lying when she says Jack's her only first priority bc it's very clear the Magnus stuff is very much a priority too

HILLTOP CENTRE???? RIGHT THATS WHERE THE OUTREACH CENTRE WAS

And also oh god Alice being here is gonna make things awkward isn't it.

MORE MAGNUSSING

Celia is really trying to find the Archivist that she knows but I don't think she's going to get that, not in this universe at least.

Alice joining the scooby doo gang! All we need is Gwen and we got the full team!

Edit: HOW DID I MISS THAT TREVOR FUCKING HERBERT IS THE PRIME MINISTER OH MY GOD

[theeldritchcorvid]

TMAGP 27 Thoughts

Spoilers, once more, below cut

I wanted to first point out that the speaker's lack of sympathy to the Chartist movement earmarks him as upper-class. The Chartists, for those unaware, were a political movement in the mid-1800s advocating the right to vote for all men (not women, this was the 1800s we're talking about here), as only landowners could vote during this time.

'Boyle's Inheritors'. Last time we met Boyle that was the Royal Society guy. And a mention of the Institute, which is indeed the Magnus Institute, though very much in its infancy, it would seem. Initially founded in 1818, our speaker appears to still be attempting to prove the existence of the supernatural at all. Operation towards the Magnus Institute in a time we know Jonah to have lived, upper-class... could it be that the speaker is Jonah?

Further evidence: JUST READ THIS QUOTE FROM THE TRANSCRIPT!

I cannot help but feel that to understand this thing may be to finally unlock the world as yet unknown to us. And in pursuit of that, there is no cost too great.

DOES THAT SHIT NOT SOUND LIKE JONAH TO YOU?! We now could have it confirmed we have a Jonah in this timeline too!

Ooh, Gwen is getting weird emails, now.

Also, oh my god Sam and Celia fucked. They actually fucked. TMAGP pulled a fade to black on us!

.... hilltop road!!! HILL TOP ROAD?!!

Also. TREVOR MCFUCKING HERBERT MP?! TREVOR?! Well, there's something I didn't see coming. Welcome back Hunt Granddad I guess?? I wonder if Robert Montauk is still alive now. And how different is Trevor?

I believe Hilltop is also the location mentioned in the charity shop episode. Starkwall seems to have paid it a visit too... When's that episode set? 2015. It seems the institute may have had an impact there.

TMAGP EP 19 NOTES

ep19

ALCHEMY REFERENCE ALCHEMY JUST LIKE THE ARG ALCHEMY

How does Sam know stuff about alchemy?!?

MAGNUS INSTITUTE WAS DEEP INTO ALL THIS STUFF? 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

Chesta 

“That most regrettable protocol”

Note Robert Boyle, might be important later (Scientist in the late 1600s)

WHAT IS ISAAC NEWTON DOING 😭

WHAT PROTOCOL

“Purgation of all that most dangerous and unfit knowledge was both necessary and good”. Okay. So. What if there’s a big ol conspiracy, DARK related? THINK ABOUT IT. Alice could be involved? Just think about it think think think 

“Dread emission”…

Theory: Because the Web’s plan won’t provide an end to itself or the other powers, and The End desires an end, perhaps it’s a form of The End trying to wipe out all of the other dread powers through “the protocol”, and that protocol continues on through OIAR, with externals being used to essentially pit the dread powers against one another? Maybe it’s some sort of web-end agglomeration, because that much planning and manipulation might require some web involvement? 🤨🤨🤨

Is Isaac Newton dealing with… Alchemy?

DUUUUUDDEEEE ISAAC NEWTON CREATED SOMETHING LIVING OUT OF METALS, IM TELLING YOU THIS IS GOING TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH FR3-D1 

AND THE BIBLICAL REFERENCES?! THANK YOU LORD FOR THIS EPISODE

“Knowledge of good and evil” (the translated latin) THIS REFERS BACK TO MY DARK THEORY

Another statement about something taking root?

THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE THE EYE GUYS THE EYE

I did not have “Isaac Newton the Eye Avatar” on my Magnus Protocol bingo card

This “Protocol” is definitely Dark related, or at least reactionary to the Eye

“Are the computers listening to us?” YES SAM YES SAM THEY ARE DONT LISTEN TO ALICE

Lena is MADDDD at Gwen’s classism

Colin what is happenniiiiing

We can’t let “him” know how much we know WHO IS HIM

“Doing mummy and daddy Stasi proud” Stasi is slang that refers to the German secret police. WHO IS HIM COLIN WHO IS HIM?!!?!??!? WHO IS WATCHING YOU

“As long as it all balances” ROBERT SMIRKE GUYS ROBERT SMIRKE AND ALSO WHAT LENA SAID ABOUT BALANCING THINGS AAAA

ALCHEMY AAAAA

Poedit Cut/Unused Content: Crones

Crones_1

000 PC_Sal All right, I have my pituitary extract and my amalgam. I need to replace the safrole and the mephedrone. How do I get those?

001 PC_Sal The weird sisters! They're always making potions and things out of herbs. I bet they could help me.

002 WellF Is the place still secret?

003 WellF Secret and swept and deep

004 WellF Who will call the Maiden?

005 WellF I have called her; she is here.

006 WellF Who will call the Mother?

007 WellF I have called her; she is here.

008 WellF Who will call the Crone?

009 WellF I have called her; she is here.

010 WellF Seven times four the Sun hath fell

011 WellF Now the prophecy fulfill

012 WellF Let the hurly burly quell

013 WellF Let her come forth, if she will.

014 WellF ‘Tis time, ‘tis time, she comes

014a PC_Sal Hello? Nimue? Vivienne? Morgause?

014b PC_Sal I could swear I just heard them! Where are they?

014c PC_Sal How do they do that?

015 WellF All hail Sally Boyle, mistress of alchemy!

016 WellF All hail Mistress Boyle, who knows the secret of maternity!

017 WellF All hail Mistress Boyle, who seeks the other shore!

018 PC_Sal I keep forgetting - you know my secret.

019 WellF We drew down the Moon!

020 PC_Sal You drew down the Moon?

020a PC_Sal This potion will help your daughter sleep.

020a WellF This potion will help your daughter sleep.

020b WellF She won't get hungry as quickly.

023 PC_Sal In fact … I came here for some ingredients I need for some … well, drugs.

024 WellF We'll help you with what you want. But first, learn what you need. You don't even know what that is!

024a WellF Before the learner attains wisdom, the teacher has the right to give several tasks.

024b PC_Sal Several.

024c WellF That's how it works, yes.

024d PC_Sal All right…

029 PC_Sal When will I see you three again?

029a PC_Sal When will I see you three again?

030 WellF When you know what is unknown!

031 WellF Anon, anon!

Crones_1_Chanting R_0 Is the place still secret?

Crones_1_Chanting R_1 Secret and swept and deep.

Crones_1-Chanting R_2 Who will call the Maiden?

Crones_1_Chanting R_3 I have called her; she is here.

Crones_1_Chanting R_4 Seven times four the Sun hath fell,

Crones_1_Chanting R_5 Now the prophecy fulfill.

Crones_1_Chanting R_6 Let the hurly burly quell,

Crones_1_Chanting R_7 Let her come forth, if she will.

Crones_2

001 WellF Who approaches the sacred circle?

002 WellF A maiden!

003 WellF A mother!

004 WellF A wise woman!

005 WellF Wise and yet not wise.

006 WellF Yet count them: One, one and one make one.

007 WellF One who is three comes near

008 WellF Three who are one await

009 WellF Tis time, 'tis time, she comes!

020 WellF This recipe cannot cure your daughter.

021 WellF But she'll be stronger. You'll have more time to save her.

022 PC_Sal Wait? What? Gwen's not sick!

022a PC_Sal Wait? What? Gwen's not sick!

023 WellF Um…

024 WellF Can't hurt.

025 WellF The magic will help her whether she is well or ill.

026 PC_Sal I… don't know that I believe in magic.

027 WellF What else is left to believe in?

028 WellF The potion isn't magic. It's herbalism. Your Mum knew herbs pretty well, didn't she?

029 PC_Sal Yes. Especially what you can do with foxglove.

029a PC_Sal Yes. Especially what you can do with foxglove.

030 WellF Have you tested magic and proved it wanting? Or have you simply assumed that what you don't understand can't be true?

031 PC_Sal I suppose I … haven't tested it.

032 WellF Then do this, if you like: we place our sacrifices in a chest in the wilds. I'll put the place on your map. Put some bricks in the chest. And say this prayer.

032a WellF Then do this, if you like: we place our sacrifices in a chest in the wilds. I'll put the place on your map. Put some bricks in the chest. And say this prayer.

033 PC_Sal Bricks?

034 WellF See what comes of it. And then return.

036 PC_Sal But … about my ingredients…

036a PC_Sal I was on Harry Haworth's team when we invented Joy. One day I hope the Goddess will forgive me for that.

037 WellF We'll help you with what you want. But first, learn what you need. You don't even know what that is!

038 PC_Sal Oh, of course the lads are here. Mustn't let the birds go thinking they can do things by themselves.

038a PC_Sal Oh, of course the hooligans are here. They've never liked the Sisters much, have they?

039 WellM We'll have no witches here thank you!

040 WellM We're not scared of you!

041 WellM Ye shall not suffer a witch to live!

042 WellM Monstrous regiment of women!

043 PC_Sal There we go. Five bricks. Now I just say this prayer…

044 PC_Sal Goddess, lighten my burden. Give me the strength to carry what I must, so I no longer need the strength of others. Goddess, I dedicate these bricks to you. Blessed be.

045 PC_Sal Huh. That's it?

046 PC_Sal That's strange. I do feel stronger. Maybe because I'm not carrying around a ton of bricks?

047 PC_Sal I guess I should talk to the weird sisters again.

Crones_2_Chanting R_0 Who approaches the sacred circle?

Crones_2_Chanting R_1 A maiden!

Crones_2_Chanting R_2 A mother!

Crones_2_Chanting R_3 A wise woman!

Crones_2_Chanting R_4 Wise and yet not wise.

Crones_2_Chanting R_5 One who is three comes near.

Crones_2_Chanting R_6 Three who are one await.

Crones_3

002 WellF Did you say the prayer?

003 PC_Sal I sort of feel stronger, actually. I think I can actually carry a bit more.

004 PC_Sal You can't prove it's magic, though. What if it's psychosomatic?

005 WellF So what if it is? you're still feeling stronger.

006 PC_Sal I'd rather you taught me about herbs. I need them, for the drugs I have to make.

007 WellF Patience. You are close to the learning you seek.

009 WellF Our henge has been occupied.

010 PC_Sal The old stone circle? The "Wedding Party Stones"?

011 WellF There's ancient power there.

012 WellF The sacred circle has been polluted.

013 WellF If you can clear it, then we'll teach you about the herbs you need.

014 PC_Sal Well, that sounds sort of fun and righteous. Why not?

015 WellM Do you think it's sweet enough?

016 WellF I was on Harry Haworth's team when we invented Joy. One day I hope the Goddess will forgive me for that.

016 WellF Why don't you taste it? Hah. Seriously, you won't die from just a smidge. It'll just make everything burn a little brighter, is all. Back at the house, we'll give everybody a huge cup of it.

017 WellM It doesn't hurt when we … free our souls from their fleshy prisons. Does it?

018 WellF I think your heart races for a bit, then off we go to the ethereal plane.

019 WellM Why don't we use hemlock? Like how Socrates killed himself. Hemlock doesn't hurt at all.

020 PC_Sal My god. They're brewing poison!

021 WellF Because we already made two big batches of digitalax. Can you imagine if we came back to Reverend Father with a big bowl of hemlock now? He'd laugh at us. Might not even let us come along on the sacred journey.

023 WellF All our questions will be answered once we're no longer in the prison of our bodies. That's what he said, right?

024 PC_Sal It's some sort of suicide cult! I'm not gonna let them poison a whole bunch of people!

024a PC_Sal I guess I can start by getting rid of this batch.

022 WellM I'll just keep stirring then.

025 PC_Sal Now I've got to get rid of this poison.

026 PC_Sal They've still got two batches back at "the house," wherever that is.

027 PC_Sal What's this odd sigil of theirs? Maybe the weird sisters know?

028 PC_Sal Huh. I wonder if I've "cleared" the circle. Shouldn't something have happened? God, now they've got me believing in magic. Still … I have a feeling there's something else to do.

029 PC_Sal What? Is someone here? … That was very strange.

Crones_4

001 WellF You cleared the circle.

002 PC_Sal I could swear something was there. Or someone.

003 WellF There's power there, if you let yourself feel it. They must have had a reason to put the stones in that place.

003a PC_Sal I'm sorry. I didn't clear the circle. I couldn't.

003b PC_Sal There were people there. Wearing these sigils.

004 PC_Sal The people there… they were wearing these sigils.

005 WellF Oh, Lord, the Space God people. Ransom McKenzie's congregation, in Gardner House.

006 PC_Sal They were making "digitalax."

007 WellF In small amounts, it's a drug. More than that, it's a poison.

007a WellF You can make it from red foxglove seeds.

007b WellF We make all sorts of useful potions and things out of it. You could, too.

008 PC_Sal I think their "reverend father" is planning for the whole lot of them to kill themselves.

009 WellF I can think of a lot of reasons to kill yourself in the Garden District. But no one should have their death chosen for them.

010 PC_Sal You know about my mum.

011 WellF I remember; there was a terrible accident. Your mum put the wrong herbs in the family dinner. The whole family died, except you. It was just before the train, so I always wondered. It wasn't an accident, was it.

012 PC_Sal I think she didn't want my sisters to be scared, all alone in Germany. So she killed them. And I guess she didn't want dad to hate her. So she killed him, too. And she couldn't live with herself. I don't know why she left me behind.

013 WellF Here.

013a WellF Mix it into their poison, and it should change from poison, to … let's call it an eye-opener.

013b PC_Sal This is the recipe for … digitalax? And something more…?

014 WellF Come back, and I'll have the rest of what you need. You're making a sort of herbal blackberry Joy, aren't you?

014a PC_Sal You know your chemistry.

015 PC_Sal For ladies who live on a crag in the Garden District, you seem to know a lot about what's going on.

015a PC_Sal For ladies who live on a crag in the Garden District, you seem to know a lot about what's going on.

015a WellF You'll need digitalax for that, among other things.

017 WellF You stopped them!

018 PC_Sal How do you know that? Magic?

019 WellF We can see it in your face.

020 PC_Sal They weren't very happy with me.

021 WellF You took away their sense of purpose.

022 PC_Sal I couldn't let them do it.

023 WellF What your mother did. Do you worry that you have that in you?

024 PC_Sal All the time.

025 WellF To be a mother is to worry.

026 WellM You have worlds within you. Only some are death.

027 WellF Here: the recipes you need to replace the blackberry Joy.

027a WellF You'll need red owl butterflies. Opsiphanes cassiae. They're hard to find, but they're all over the train station.

027b WellF You can use our old butterfly net!

028 PC_Sal Thank you.

028 PC_Sal Oh, perfect. Ollie Starkey lives there… who knows if he remembers me.

028 WellF Well then.

029 WellF Blessed be.

030 WellF Blessed be.

031 WellF Blessed be.

032 PC_Sal This is brilliant. I can replace almost everything I need with botanicals, and the odd butterfly.

034 PC_Sal Where do I get my mercury amalgam, though?

036 PC_Sal It's a byproduct of making Joy. But I can't get into the labs any more. Who can I talk to?

038 PC_Sal_Bill_Hockney Harry Cavendish. He was fired, wasn't he, and nobody would talk about it. Maybe I should pay him a visit.

040 PC_Sal They can't know if Gwen is sick? How would they know that?

042 PC_Sal I better check on her, though.

044 PC_Sal I wish I knew how they did that.

046 PC_Sal Off I go to the train station, then, to catch some butterflies

Crones_Mystery

002 WellM This is our test of faith, my friends. We hate this world, we all hate this world. We hate living in this flesh bag, not knowing our Higher Purpose.

004 WellM But … do we hate it enough? Anyone can say, sure, I hate living in a flesh bag. But then you say to them, "Well, don't, then." And they're scared. They're scared to jump. What if the Pickup Vehicle is not really in orbit? What if there is no Pickup Vehicle?

006 WellM That's why you need to hate, really hate the flesh bag. You have to be willing to not living in it, without any solid confirmation that the Pickup Vehicle is there.

008 WellM Does this seem strange to you? It shouldn't. Jesus Christ said, "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it," Matthew 16. The Hindus seek moksha, liberation from the cycle of rebirth. They all ask us to embrace the next world and to joyfully give up this world.

010 WellM Because, of course, there is a Pickup Vehicle. I've been on it. I've talked to the Transcended, both humans and aliens. Trust me, I would have been happy to stay up there. But if I had, I couldn't tell you the good news.

012 WellM I'm not talking about martyrdom. No one's talking about martyrdom. Okay what I'm talking about might look like martyrdom to the cowans. I'm talking about leaving the flesh bag behind. Throwing it overboard. How can you float up to the Pickup Vehicle if you're weighed down by a bag? You can't. It's ballast.

014 WellM We have to leave the flesh bag and be our soul, be only our soul.

016 WellM This is not suicide. Suicide is giving up. This is taking a leap of faith. We have to have faith that the Transcended will catch us.

018 WellM What else is there? Clinging to the life of this flesh bag until it rots? You've seen what the Blight does to a fresh apple. You know about the plague victims. Some of you have tried to talk to them. What do you suppose this world is doing to you, every day?

020 WellM Well, but, how do we know?

022 WellM We don't. That's the test. That's what makes us worthy of becoming Transcended humans, like the Transcended Humans before us, like Jesus, like Buddha, like Guru Nanak we've talked so much about. If we can see further than your sight goes. If we can feel what is just across the river on the other side, on the other plane of existence. Then they will know we're worthy.

024 WellM And what happens if you don't have faith? What if you don't drink the magic potion that takes us to the other plane of existence?

026 WellM Nothing. Nothing happens. Nothing new. Nothing changes.

028 WellM There's no punishment, except how you're already being punished. There's no retribution, unless you already feel like you're being retributed. You just won't ascend, you don't Transcend. And sooner or later, but probably sooner, the way things are going, your flesh bag dies.

030 WellM But then you're not worthy, and you don't float up to the Pickup Vehicle. Your fleshbag drags you down. Your doubt drags you down. Makes you heavy. You sink into the Earth you've always clung to. You've clung to it, now you get to have all you can eat. And your soul rots in the Earth.

032 WellM We're going to start handing out the cups now. Don't worry, there's enough for everyone, more than enough. But don't sip it, or you might feel sick for a bit. A little might make you queasy. A full cup, and you won't feel a thing. You'll just wake up in a little while, feeling no pain, feeling no gravity, looking down at the Earth from the Pickup Vehicle. And then you'll get to meet everybody up there.

034 WellM They've been watching you. They can't wait to meet you.

036 WellM Let's go, let's get those cups out to everyone who wants some.

038 WellM Once you've had your fill, if you feel like it, you can sing along with me.

040 WellM What are you doing? These people are trying to get to a higher plane of existence!

042 WellM Get out! Meddler!

044 WellM Heathen!

046 PC_Sal You sick, dying bastard!

048 PC_Sal Kill yourself if you like, but you're not taking anyone with you.

050 PC_Sal Pickup Vehicle Service on the Hammersmith & City line has been permanently suspended between Eel Pie and Apple Holm. Please make other arrangements for transport to your final destination.

052 PC_Sal SORRY, THE MASS SUICIDE HAS BEEN CANCELLED. I'M AFRAID YOU'RE ALL GOING TO HAVE TO LIVE WITH YOUR SINS LIKE THE THE REST OF US.

054 PC_Sal I could give them an antidote to their digitalax. But they'll just try again, won't they?

056 PC_Sal Mum made the antidote, didn't she? In case she had second thoughts. But she didn't have second thoughts.

058 PC_Sal Whatever I give them has to give them hope.

060 PC_Sal That's a tall order for a drug.

062 PC_Sal Maybe if I "cleanse the doors of their perception…"

063 PC_Sal They've already started! I've got to get to the poison before they all take it!

063a PC_Sal Fuck in a bucket! I'm running out of time!

064 PC_Sal That's it! That's what they're going to poison everyone with!

066 PC_Sal If I've done this right, they'll realize the world is a lot bigger than the Garden District. Or something.

068 WellM Now, everyone take a small cupful of the elixir we're passing out. You may feel a bit dizzy, that's to be expected. Shortly afterwards, you'll sleep, and when you wake up, you'll be in the Pickup Vehicle meeting some very wonderful exalted human beings and transcended entities.

067 Bobby Erm, the lads 'ave… prepared a little merriment to show our gratitude.

070 WellF Hands are … really beautiful … aren't they? They're like … God's hands.

072 WellF I'd never noticed all the colours. Is this heaven?

074 WellF Life's so… short … you know?

076 WellM This place is … bad. It's a bad place.

078 WellF Why did you want us to die? Why?

080 WellF It's because you want to die, isn't it? You just wanted company.

082 WellM Let's get out of here.

084 WellM We're leaving! You can kill yourself if you like!

088 WellM Wait! Stay! The next world is better than this one!

086 WellM Wait! Don't go! You'll miss the Pickup Vehicle. You'll all miss the Pickup Vehicle!

090 PC_Sal Are you mad, or are you just a swindler who's convinced himself? I don't think I care.

092 WellM Prove it's not true! You can't! You might as well try to prove that God doesn't exist!

094 PC_Sal I think Wellington Wells is pretty good proof of that!

096 PC_Sal Sorry, Pickup Vehicle Service on this line has been permanently suspended.

All of Sally's quests for the Weird Sisters. As you can see, this questline was placed earlier in the original draft than it appears in the finished game. Specifically, you'd be given the butterfly net before finishing "Reservations", meaning butterflies were meant to be an ingredient needed to complete it and you'd have to do "Ex Cathedra" first. They play a bit more with twining quests in and out of each other in Arthur's act (nesting "The English Vice" inside "House of the Inventor" or giving you "Haworth Labs" which can't be accessed until you've done, like, four other prerequisite quests). Sally's quests were apparently edited to be much more linear (excluding "Home Cooking", although that's not twined so much as over-arching).

In this order, the Witches would have told her how to make the mercury amalgam and Harry Cavenish (who according to the filename for the subtitle was originally named Bill Hockney) would only have told her where to find it outside the labs, rather than giving her the formula too as he now does. The lines at the beginning of Crones_1 may have been appended after this change, since a lot of times these subtitle bunches start on 002, not 000.

Ransom McKenzie's ramble was actually supposed to be a sermon with some discussion near the end, but that would have limited the audio design to the church room of the house. It was definitely the better choice to do the audio tape monologue thing instead.

I rather wish they'd have left Sally's lines in about sensing a presence at the Wedding Party stones. Like, it's not conclusive of anything, but it does reinforce that Sally is wise but not wise. Wish they would have left those chants in too, come to that.

Vivienne: A wise woman!

Morgause: Well, let's not go crazy. She doesn't even know her baby's sick.

The reveal that Gwen was sick makes a little more sense this way than it does in the game (as is, Sally just gets a premonition about it after seeing a rat), but that Sally doesn't worry about it until after the quest is complete is a little out of character, but that's why it's not in the final cut.

Magnus Protocol 19 spoilers (again - what the fuck?!)

Celia is printing research on alchemy? And Sam recognises it? AND CELIA JJST CALLED SAM AN ALCHEMIST!

Sam, what do you mean the Magnus Institute was into alchemy.

Oh, Alice wants Sam to stop researching the Institute - trying to protect him cos SHE KNOWS

Chester!

Boyle and Hooke?! Oh, we are getting into Magnus founding territory now.

Protocol against Newton? Newton was into alchemy - so is this what the Magnus Protocol is - against alchemy?

Homburg is real and also into alchemy.

Aargh - when Hooke met Newton there was a brief moment of the Archives music!

Oh! We’re going back to the transformation of the man into plant!

So the protocol destroys the alchemy work?

Bit of googling and Arbor Philsophorum Perfecta is the philosophers tree? I think…

Are they - is the Magnus Protocol - something about stopping the fears being created in the first place?

(Listening this so soon after hearing Jonathan Sims play Dr Seward makes the whole casement sound very gothic horror)

Oh, Sam has figured out the computers are listening…

Colin has had a breakdown? And not contacting Alice? But where is he? And why does the computer keep blocking Alice?

Love this part in the transcript ‘GWEN is in the middle of a heated argument with Lena. Or she would be, if Lena wasn’t so ice cold.’

Ooh, what was that dig about Gwen’s family?

And Lena doesn’t like Starkwall - the security company. She’s trying to stop Gwen isn’t she? She wants Gwen to quit.

Lena’s manner is terrible but I coming to believe she really is trying to do the right thing, she really so is trying to protect the OIAR

Colin! My beloved!

‘We can’t let him know how much we know’ him? Who? ‘What I need is not to be seen. He sees too much already’ what you mean like The Eye!!!!!

Ooh, so the alchemy is trying to stop the world being destroyed..

Mummy and Daddy Stasi? Who’s that?

Colin really is beginning to remind me of the people Jon forced statements from.

Lots and lots being planned for the big season finale next week

[we-joyless-few]

i meant to say b4 i went to sleep last night that while i was playing as Sally in arcade/sandbox mode, she kept saying little bits of dialogue (similar to what Arthur does) but it was sometimes directed towards Gwen

so i imagined she had Gwen in a little baby carrier on her back, so that way she wouldn’t have to run home and take care of her

Magnus Protocol 27

Yes I skipped making one of these for 26, it was a week and a half and mostly it consisted of me going 'plz stop poking the Spiral Lady she might eat you' at Celia, so.

Kidnapping/consumption, there is no way that classification can mean good things, nope.

Sam just kind of... sucks at grunt work. Like. I know he never meant to do a busywork type of job, this was a fallback, but... look. If Lena wasn't bound and determined to Not Have To Hire More People, Sam would be out on his ass in a week. You don't get that sassy with an overbearing manager and not eat asphalt. Sam, that's a clue, take it, please, omg.

Lena is tidying away Colin's files. Can someone get us proof of life on Colin?

$10 says Lena's planning on feeding Sam to one of the externals.

Oh Gwen, living down to middle manager tropes are we?

Hi Augustus, horrible to hear you, what ye olde times horror do you have for us you utter psychopath?

Strong alchemy vibes, gotta love it

So the institute is instituting (Magnussing?) by committee, I think I'm seeing why the Institute didn't overpower this world.

.... this is Jonah Magnus. THIS IS JONAH MAGNUS HI JONAH YOU ASS WHERE DID YOU PUT JON AND MARTIN

The eeeeeeeeeeeeeeye [snork] dude, stahp.

... uh. That coach ate a dude.

Hey Magnus. Magnus. Go get et by a coach.

Boyle! I got that reference. And Boyle is from the same time as Newton, so like... what, is this a committee you get to join because you inherited a seat? What, my daddy's rich and in this secret society I am too? .... actually nm that's pretty on point.

So if Boyle and Newton are from late 1600's (ish), and these letters are from nearly 200 years later... were there earlier Magnuses? It sounds like the institute is being named after him personally, so if there were, why is he so special? If there weren't, how did he get into the >200 year old rich boy's club? Why is it still a committee? Or was Newton more part of what the government bit is, that wipes Institute-esque things off the map when they get too powerful? Halp.

Jonah Magnus magnussing over here feeding his colleague to a coach with very little to no remorse I applaud Archibald (who tragically does not appear to be a real person) for spending his last moments cussing out Jonah Magnus.

Jonah has figured out about the Fears. Smirke's coming up next, isn't he? Oh no.

'Do you ever get weird emails' '[deadpan] I'm openly trans on the internet.' Read her to filth, Alice. Get her ass.

'We're not doing this now.' Doing whaaaat, Gwen? Sorta hate-flirting? Approaching romance sidelong like it might bite? C'mon, you were having fun.

Nooooooooo not the breakrooooooooooooooooooom FINE I'll break out the transcripts.

'What was that?' 'That was sex, Sam.' OOF. Sam, my shrimp king, never let Alice know Celia said that, even in jest, she'll roast you forever. Also 'pretty decent' sex? Damned by faint praise much? Or is this one of those 'if I vaguely praise it it was awesome, but if I'm very enthusiastic I think it was trash' British things?

Trevor Herbert is the MP????? That hobo-ass vampire slayer? Oh god, at least he'll get on with Lady Mowbrey.

Nope, still hung up on TREVOR being an elected official, I can't, help.

Whoop, Celia is spooked by the Archivist, what, you didn't clue in... ohhhh. oh no. She didn't hear the story last week. With the eyes. hahaha oh no.

Oh sure Celia, you just 'happen' to find the Hilltop Road property, just coinkidink, yup, just got a 'feeling' about it, yah-huh. If there are spiders there I'm going to be yelling so loud.
