So. Mind's Eye, huh? An incredibly dangerous spell used by the Magic Circle to glean information, fueled by the life energy of the witness?

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur season 2!!!

Alright so episode 12 of mgadd was the school dance episode and I have some thoughts.

This applies mostly to this specific episode but some of it applies to the whole season so far. I understand and appreciate the overall message being conveyed by the episode. About how you should start dating when you're comfortable and how there's no rush.

However the message gets undermined by the simple fact the Marvin exists to be Lunellas love interest.

I don't dislike Marvin but him being exactly like Lunella is annoying. I don't like it and this happens a lot, when shows introduce a love interest who is exactly like the main character.

Once again nothing against Marvin but it's just annoying. Especially since it is the second season. If you want a character to have a love interest introduce them in season 1.

I get it they're both socially awkward and Don't understand social ques but still they're the same person only difference being one is a boy and the other is a girl. Marvin being an alien with daddy issues was interesting until it gets resolved immediately. Other wise these two have no conflict and no obstacles to overcome they're boring.

Now onto my personal gripe about the episode in question.

They did my boy eduardo dirty.

Why???

Eduardo has been a reoccurring background character since the very first episode. Now I've never shipped him with Lu but it was established early on that he had a crush on her.

If ed was a bully type character then I wouldn't care about him. But that's not his archetype he's a misunderstood class clown.

This is episode 12 of season 2 and this is our first time even hearing him speak. Reminder Marvin was introduced in like episode 4 or something. In the episode Lunellas friends tell her she should go with them as a group to the dance, but when they all end up with dates Lu feels left out and also tries to find a date. And she asks out Eduardo who tells her he's already been asked.

It has a very cute sequence where he images them as sailormoon and tuxedo mask.

In the end Lunella goes alone which is fine. Her outfit is very cute. Then Marvin shows up and we get jealous Eduardo. I also want to say that Mar didn't show up to be her date to the dance he needed help. Anyway Ed is jealous and upset everytime we see him on screen.

Which I really hope isn't what his character is going to be boiled down to especially after they developed him so well in season 1. I don't want him and Lu to end up together I just want this character to have the respect that it had in season 1 instead of making him miserable.

Just look at who he's at the dance with that terrible blonde girl who insulted Lunellas hair in season 1.

I just can't get behind Lunella and Marvin because it feels forced and rushed. It's annoying that they just made a carbon copy of Lu for a love interest. That's kind of lazy.

Otherwise the season has been fun so far.

Day 29: Magic

Jameson Jackson and Marvin have a little competition. Is magic real? Or is magic just tricks with the audience? Jameson learns the truth the hard way...

And now, some egos content! Hope you all enjoy!

Marvin was sitting on the couch, showing Jamie his magical powers. Now, Jamie knew Marvin had always had these powers. But he had rarely seen them in action. Marvin was moving a deck of cards around with his green magic, showing Jamie how well he could move them around in interesting patterns. 

Jamie smiled a bit, enjoying it. But he couldn’t help but make one little comment: ‘That’s not really magic…that’s just telekinesis.’ Jamie signed to him. 

“Telekinesis IS magic.” Marvin stated. “Your version of magic is called ‘Movie Magic’.” He mentioned. “Nothing like real magic.” 

Jamie smirked and crossed his arms. ‘Magic isn’t real. Magic is just brain tricks.’ Jamie signed. 

Marvin smirks and lifts up one of the cards. “Is that so?” He flips the card around, revealing it to be white with the text [Prove it] on it. 

Jamie smirked and took half the deck of cards before signing ‘Watch and learn’ with his left hand. Jamie shuffled the deck of cards and spread them out like a fan. ‘Pick a card.’ Jamie signed. 

Marvin raised an eyebrow and smirked, taking a card from the deck and looking at it. “Do I put it back?” Marvin asked. 

Jamie nodded and showed him the opened deck. After placing the card in, Jamie sandwiched the card and shuffled it in his hands. 

Marvin raised an eyebrow. “Damn, mate! You’re not even keeping an eye on where the card is!” Marvin reacted. 

Jamie smirked and looked up at him as he kept shuffling. He was determined to prove him wrong, and show him that real magic didn’t exist. Right as Marvin was about to say something else, Jamie put the deck together and hit the bottom of the deck. Suddenly, one single card flew out of the deck about 5 feet above them! 

Marvin widened his eyes and dropped his jaw as he watched the card spin down. “Holy shit!” He reacted. 

Jamie caught it with two fingers, and flipped it around, showing Marvin while mouthing the words ‘This your card?’. 

Marvin covered his mouth. “Holy-” He cleared his throat and pulled himself together. “Yup, it is.” He told him. “Not bad, JJ.” Marvin responded, appreciating the magic trick. “But how does that prove that magic isn’t real?” Marvin asked him next. 

Jamie smirked and opened the rest of the deck. There was an elastic around a few cards that crossed in the middle of the deck. He pulled on the elastic, emphasizing its stretchiness. With this, Marvin realized that elastic must’ve provided Jamie the ability to ‘slingshot’ the card out of the deck. 

“Okay, okay…fair enough. Magic tricks are just tricks.” Marvin admitted. “But what about this:” Marvin used his green magic to pick up the card that was in his hand. Jamie let go of it, and watched the card levitate. “Does this look like magic?” Marvin asked him. 

Jamie raised an eyebrow, and smirked a bit. He grabbed the card and tried to pull it down. But to his surprise, the card didn’t drop. Actually, his hand remained upwards. Jamie’s smirk wiped off his face as he tried to pull it down…but once again, it proved to be pointless. Jamie widened his eyes and pulled one more time…and again, it just wouldn’t budge. His face grew visibly annoyed. 

Marvin was just giggling as he watched. “Awww, can’t get the card, JJ?” Marvin teased. 

Jamie verbally growled as he started pulling on the card like a cartoon character. This alone made Marvin laugh harder. “Ohoho my god! You’re really heaving on the thing!” He reacted. “You need a little help with that?” Marvin asked him, moving his hand up. 

Suddenly, Jamie froze and started kicking the air as he was raised up by the magic of the card. Since Jamie’s hands were gripping the card, he didn’t have any hands to sign! So his visual comedy was the only thing showing Marvin how he was reacting. 

And his reactions made Marvin laugh again. “Poor JJ…” Marvin walked closer to Jamie, and watched as he started aiming his kicking feet towards him. “Oh come now, mate.” Marvin caught his foot. “Let’s leave this PG, okay?” Marvin encouraged. 

Jamie started pulling on his foot, and managed to pull it out of his grip. “Not bad, JJ. But can you handle THIS?” Marvin started tickling his exposed armpits. This made Jamie throw his head back with a big smile on his face. 

“Look at that! Mr. Jackson here appears to be ticklish~” Marvin teased. 

Jamie shook his head, kicking his feet almost wildly. 

“No?! But I’m tickling you right now, and you’re laughing!” Marvin reacted dramatically. “Either I’ve been living under a rock my whole life, or someone is lying about being ticklish~” Marvin teased. 

Jamie shook his head vigorously.

“Aww…What’s wrong, Jamie? Can’t handle the tickle-tickle-tickles?” Marvin asked him. 

Jamie attempted to shoot him a glare…but due to how ticklish he was, the glare looked more goofy than threatening. 

“Oh my! Was that…a glare? Are you really trying to give me the mom look?!” Marvin asked. 

Jamie audibly snorted and hung his head. 

“Awww, now you’re getting all shy on me! How cute!” Marvin kept teasing. “What would happen if I just…” Marvin moved his fingers down to his belly, earning another snort from Jamie. “Oooooh! I see someone’s got a ticklish tummy-wummy~” Marvin teased, skittering his fingers on his somewhat visible bare belly. 

Marvin could see Jamie trying to yell ‘NO!’, but couldn’t actually voice it. The poor man could only lip sync it. 

“Is someone trying to tell me something?” Marvin teased. “Is someone trying to tell me ‘No no no! No tickling! I’m so ticklish! I’m gonna die! Aaah!’? Is that what you’re trying to tell me?” Marvin asked him playfully. 

Jamie audibly snorted and nodded his head for the first time that afternoon. 

“Ooooh! Looks like someone’s admitting it! I’m so proud of you, Jamie! Admitting the truth like a big boy!” Marvin teased rather evilly. “I wonder what else you could admit if I just kept asking you ‘yes or no’ questions…” Marvin teased evilly as he moved his wiggling fingers down to his hips. 

Jamie snorted yet again, before slowing down his kicks a little bit. It looked like Jamie’s ‘giggles’ and wiggling were lessening due to the spot change. Marvin could safely guess that Jamie’s hips were a little less ticklish than his armpits, ribs or even his tummy. But of course, he had to ask. Marvin giggled. “Is someone less ticklish on their hips?” Marivn asked. 

Jamie nodded his head almost right away. 

“Oh wow! Looks like these hips DON’T lie!” Marvin teased. “But are they just as truthful if I dig into your hips?” Marvin asked as he started digging his fingers a little deeper into his hips. 

Right away, Jamie threw his head back with an audible wheeze. 

“Holy shit!” Marvin reacted. “Is this more ticklish?!” He asked. 

Jamie lowered his head down and nodded his head. 

“Looks like I was right! Such a ticklish little dapper boy.” Marvin teased, before bringing his hands back and poking his side. By this point, Jamie was contemplating letting go of the card so he could get away. Cause a little reminder: Jamie was STILL holding onto the card with both his hands! And by some god out there, Jamie had not let go of the card yet. He was still holding on for dear life, as if he still had a point to make. But evident by the tickles and his deep red blush, Jamie has most likely lost his point. So…is there really a point in still holding on?

“I’m impressed you’re still holding on! You’ve got some wicked arm stre-” Marvin started to say, before Jamie finally let go and dropped down to the ground. “Oh nevermind.” Marvin finished his sentence, before picking up the card and making the magic go away. “Down he goes.” He added. 

Jamie was holding his sides, trying to calm himself down from the tickle attack. He rested on the ground for a few more minutes, before slowly getting himself back up. ‘That was mean.’ 

Marvin giggled. “But I was right…Do you believe me now?” Marvin asked him with a smirk. Jamie tilted his head. ‘Believe you?’ He looked confused. 

Marvin nodded his head. “Yeah! That magic is real!” Marvin responded. 

Jamie widened his eyes and nodded his head. ‘Yeah. I believe you.’ He signed back. 

Marvin smiled. “Alright, good. Now that THAT’S done…Do you have any questions, Mr. Movie Magic?” Marvin asked him. 

Jamie thought for a moment. Gosh…Questions…He had a lot of them. So many questions to ask… He started with one single question: ‘How do you summon the magic?’ Jamie asked him. 

Marvin smiled brightly and pulled out his mask. “Good question, JJ.” Marvin put it onto his face and closed his eyes as he used the mask to summon more magic. Jamie watched in awe as a symbol showed up in Marvin’s hands, and lit up Marvin’s body in a greenish majestical glow. Marvin slowly separated his hands, and opened his eyes before removing the mask. “This mask helps me control my magic. But I’ve also been trained to control it without the mask.” Marvin explained.��

‘Wow…’ Jamie spelled out, making Marvin laugh in response. ‘Can…Can you lift me up?’ Jamie signed next. 

Marvin smiled brightly and shrugged his shoulders. “I think so? I can certainly try.” Marvin admitted as he put his mask back on. Summoning his magic with his hands, Marvin moved his fingers around and covered Jamie in the same greenish glow. With that done, Marvin moved his hands and began to make Jamie’s body levitate. To Jamie’s surprise, he actually started rising up! Holy shit! He was flying! He was actually flying!!!

Jamie’s excitement was super evident on his face. He was throwing his hands in the air, and signing sentences rapidfire. 

“Oh my god, you’re excited!” Marvin reacted, laughing. “I’ve never seen you so excited about stuff like this before!” Marvin admitted. 

Jamie gasped silently and signed the word ‘Up!’ over and over again. 

“Really? You wanna go higher?” Marvin asked. “Okay!” He raised Jamie up a little bit more, making Jamie spin and silently cheer. But Marvin REALLY busted a gut laughing when Jamie started doing backflips while surrounded by the magic. It was honestly super entertaining! He looked so happy! And to think Jamie was only recently trying to prove that magic wasn’t real! Crazy how quickly things change…

[septnautical]

"I heard you shout. Nightmares again?"

I think this could fit schneep and Marvin?

(Used this as an opportunity for a big reveal of some new stuff for Marvin! Happy Mermay!!)

Another night- another horrible nightmare plagues Marvin’s mind. They always feel so real…

This one is… different though. He’s staring at… a version of himself. Himself stuck in his warper state- those bright pink alien eyes staring straight through him. He watches his other self get stiffer- become more robotic- and he feels himself following after. He panics- wanting to fight the sensation but his body is locking up. The warper him just barely tilts his head towards Marvin before speaking.

“Why are you denying what we are?”

“W-What?!” Marvin stammers in fear.

There’s no emotion on the other him’s face, “We are not like the other hybrids. We are not organic, we are not human. We are machines, made to serve a purpose. Why do you keep denying what we are?”

“Because I’m more than that!” Marvin shouts back, “Warpers may be machines but I… I'm me! I’m Marvin!”

“Your feeble attempts to cling to your humanity are making you weak,” The warper him says, “A human mind has so much potential. So much to unlock. You could be more powerful than any warper ever made. Maybe even on par with the architects. Yet you turn away from what you could be. Why?”

It suddenly warps so it and Marvin are face to face, pink eyes meeting teary blue.

“Are you afraid, WH-005?”

And for a moment… the voice sounded just like Zeke’s.

Marvin shoots awake and gasps, pushing himself up in the sand to shakily try to breathe. Fresh water over his gills seems to calm him down as he grips over his heart. His… heart that he can see through his chest- beating and pumping blood. But, he feels so disconnected from it. Like his body was turning into metal. And it scared him to his very core.

He yelps in surprise and fear as he feels a gentle hand on his shoulder. Then, he sees a goggled face and relaxes some. It’s just Henrik…

“I heard you shout…” The stalker hybrid says quietly, “More nightmares?”

Marvin is quiet but then slowly nods. His voice cracks a bit as he mumbles, “…t-they just keep getting worse, Hen… I-I…!”

Henrik is quick to wrap up the younger brother in a hug and shushes him gently. “It is only a dream, Marvin… they cannot hurt you.”

The warper mer is quiet in his arms for a few beats, trying to find comfort in his embrace. But the dream still lingered like poison in his mind. He pushes himself out and swims upward. “T-That’s just it, Hen! It’s… it’s not just a dream… I-it’s things I’ve been worried about- worried that I’m… I’m too different f-from…!” He cuts himself off as he bites his lip, trying not to let tears linger in his eyes.

“M-Marvin what are you-?” Schneep tries to say. But Marvin hurriedly swims past him, towards the mouth of the cove.

“I- I need to look for answers…!” Marvin says quickly then warps away before Henrik can even get up to chase after him.

———

Marvin appears in the lost river and he blinks in confusion. “…why… am I here?” He asks, his voice echoing slightly in the dark cavern. He shudders, holding his arms tight around him. He hates it down here… here is where Zeke-

You want to find answers, right? A thought echoes through his head. And with the thought comes a feeling. Pulling him forward. Like an instinct. A need.

Marvin trembles, his tails juddering in place. But, maybe there were answers here somewhere. He shakes his head and swims after the feeling, going towards the strange alien-like arches that lead to his destination.

Though, whatever this feeling is… it’s not leading him to where Zeke had him. That was a small white suit wreck- a crude Alteran attempt at making warpers themselves… at least from what he can remember. It was all really fuzzy. But now… this is leading him to a really scary looking building. One that it seems even the white suits don’t touch. Probably because it looked like it was destroyed by… something. Something big. And the entire thing was submerged underwater. Which served Marvin just fine.

Still- looking at the strange glowing green structure hidden amongst the darkest parts of the Lost River sent shivers down the warper’s spine. But, he swallowed his fear and swam inside.

Inside was a confusing labyrinth of architecture he had rarely seen. Strangely glowing and… there were so many things locked behind glass structures. Marvin swam into an open room and gasped as he saw fuana specimens tacked onto displays. He felt sick as he saw a rabbit ray… and a huge egg that kinda reminded him of Anti.

He quickly swam out of that place- seeing massive claw marks scratched into the walls and dents of damage. But soon enough he entered a place that felt way too familiar… yet like nothing he had ever seen before.

It was horrifying… an expansive room filled with- warper parts. Several parts just left in construction- an inactive warper discarded and thrown on the floor, leaving that horrid green cage open. Just like the one that Zeke kept him for weeks, back in that wrecked Alterra copy. Clearly it had been a poorer copy of this. This… this is where the original warpers must have been made.

Seeing this all has Marcin’s heart pounding wildly, his skin raked with goosebumps. Still… this place had to have the answers he was looking for, right? The answer to what he was… was he human? Was he a machine? Was he too different from his brothers? …looking around this place though, he’s not sure this has the answer he wants to hear.

As he swims forward into the lab he tries to look around for something… he’s not exactly sure what. Surely there must be information in here… like a PDA or something?

When suddenly, his tail brushes against some kind of dark cube with glowing green lines- and lights and machines start to glow and whirl around him. Marvin freezes and whips around to look- only for some of those green metal bars and wires to crash into him and hold him in place. Marvin instantly starts to panic and fights against the cage, “no no!! Not again! L-Let me go!!”

He tries to warp but whatever this stuff is made of is suppressing his powers! He feels panicked tears welling up in his eyes and tries to struggle out more, using his claws to try to get out but the cage grabs his arms and pulls them taunt to the side. Ringing is starting up in his ears, he left his mask at the cove! He can’t lose himself here! But he feels his second pair of eyes trying to open, feels his warper instincts trying to claw their way to the surface through his panic.

One of the 4 pronged fabricators creaks loudly across the ancient ceiling as it comes to rest in front of Marvin. A blue light washes across his body, scanning him. Then, a robotic voice garbles out, almost too glitched and corrupted to understand:

‘Warper agent active but incomplete. Processing power not at full capacity.’

“What?! W-What does that mean?? P-Please just let me go! I’m not just a warper I-I’m-!” Marvin sobs. But the machines don’t listen. The fabricator arm zooms around Marvin- then latches onto his neck, inserting sharp tips under his armor.

‘Detecting damage in miniaturized phase chip. Warper agent’s self-repairing technology impaired. Reactiviating-‘

A sharp shock goes through Marvin’s nerves as his back arches and he lets out a strangled gasp of pain. Something in his blood seems to pump faster, feels… different. The… the ringing… is it getting… quieter?

‘Self repairing technology back online.’

Then, the fabricator whirls and then soars over his head, latching attachments against his skull and digging in. He screams bloody murder and tries to thrash against the pain but the cage tightens around him- holding him still.

‘Expanding processing power of Agent’s brain. Please stand by.’

The computerized voice says- now clearer as if talking directly into Marvin’s mind.

Then, there’s nothing but bright blinding pain as something pushes into his skull and electricity fills up Marvin’s whole body. He’s not sure if he’s screaming or not- he feels completely detached from his body. All he can feel is the pain as something is pushed into his mind.

When he next wakes up he’s laying down on his back on one of the tables inside the warper facility. He doesn’t even remember passing out… he groans and holds his head. It’s aching and pounding. But then as he looks out- something in his vision has changed.

He sees- words. Human words. But he can fully read and understand them now. Everywhere he looks he sees things start to get highlighted in blue, like they’re being scanned before information pops up to explain it. Just like a white suit machine. Marvin screams and tries to scramble away but- he can’t escape it! It’s all he can see!

He curls up and holds hands over his eyes, sobbing hysterically in fear. “W-What is this?! W-What’s happening to me?!”

Then, he stiffens slightly and pink blooms in his eyes as words start to fill his mind. It hurts- it hurts and he tries to fight it but there’s just urge to just- repeat the words! Say them outloud- he needs to he’s programmed to-

“Warper agents' brains and central nervous systems been digitally augmented with advanced processing power and remote communications.” Marvin says in a robotic drone, eyes glazing over slightly as the information slips from his lips.

Once he’s done, the pink fades from his eyes and the pressure lightens as he gasps. His limbs begin to tremble again, no longer stiff and robotic. He claps his hands over his mouth and chokes on a sob. That fabricator- it did something to him! Did it make him even more like a warper? More like a machine?!

Marvin rockets off the platform and back out into the rest of the facility- the rest of its freaky secrets blurring around him in his panic. The second he feels like he can warp again he does- crashing into the wall of the cove with a loud thud.

Soon enough Jackie comes into view and tries to help Marvin up, “Marvin?! Marv what’s wrong? Are you okay?!”

The touch is electric, it’s too much- it feels like Marvin’s nerves are on fire! He pushes Jackie away from him and curls up, “D-Don’t touch me!”

Jackie looks hurt, “What? Marvin-!”

More bodies start to swim closer, Marvin can feel Jamie’s tentacles and hear Schneep’s panicking. Another hand tries to touch him and he shoves it off. “Stop please just- stop…!”

“Marvin, I need to see what is wrong…!” Henrik tries to say, “Is your head hurting? Do you need your mask?”

“M-Maybe we should call for Danan?” Chase suggests shakily.

Marvin tries to look out at his brothers- and he gasps as he sees his vision start to scan them. Messages pop up, showing their designations. No no- Marvin didn’t want to see those! He whimpers and the others tense as they see flickers of pink in his eyes.

“Anti, get Marvin’s mask, quickly!” Henrik shouts. The sea dragon hesitates then grabs the mask and hurries over to hand it to Marvin. “Here,” Anti whispers, looking slightly worried.

But all Marvin can see is Anti’s designation- SE-004. And the notes of ‘return to HQ at all costs.’ Marvin chokes on a sob and curls up as much as he can, digging claws into his head as he shouts out, “no no! G-Get- GET AWAY FROM ME!!”

As he shouts this- suddenly, his mask and any lingering tech around the cave start to glow with blue light. Then, they start to float in the water despite their weight. The boys all watch this in awe. Until- the objects all shoot off in different directions, causing even more crashing sounds.

Marvin dares to look up, his eyes glowing blue now instead of pink. The others stare at him with confusion and a bit of fear.

“M-Marvin…” Schneep whispers, “…what did you do?”
