#quill screaming !

[its-your-mind]

Help I’m late to the party re: cryptic Rusty Quill Magnus Archives news and don’t know how to catch up!

You have come to the right place! Here I will summarize The Bullshit™️ with time stamps where able. I will also update this post when new things come to light.

Let’s go one day at a time!

10 October

Rusty Quill Twitter and Instagrams post UNPROMPTED, UNEXPLAINED eyes

On the same day, RQ patrons got a code in the weekly Patreon round up

12 October

RQ Twitter posts a tweet with an image of a cassette tape with the same code as had been given to the patrons: U3RhdGVtZW50IFJlbWFpbnMK

Using base64, the code comes out to “Statement Remains”

The RQ insta also posted this image to their story:

Which, if you take the image as binary code, comes out to “Are you still listening?”

A new code was also posted to RQ patrons, and will be added here if/when it is publicly released.

EDIT: There were strings of text added to the episode description of Goodbye for Now in the TMA feed, which when translated through Base32 and then Base64 read: "this one was an accident. sorry -_-"

Amazing, 11/10 work, RQ

(ty to @official-infinitea for the update on the pod description codes!)

EDIT: also on-going is like… every person associated with RQ being VERY MEAN and dropping hints that we’re all gonna lose our shit whenever whatever this is drops

13 October

Apparently the Patreon code from yesterday led people wildly off-course, because they gave another hint today to solve it. Again, going to keep the specifics of that off this post bc patreon, but know that in the end, it leads to the same place as what is below.

Also, Fay Roberts, who played Daisy Tonner in TMA, tweeted

The QR code translates to: WHR'TS ECAHXJ TCLKHX U AC JV Y

It was solved the rough four layers of translation and encryption, to read: “your guess is as good as mine.” Thank you, Mx. Roberts. Where would we be without your clues leading us.

The RQ Twitter and Instagram also posted

New episode:

I'll let you listen to that one on your own 😉

Code in the description is

7V?UOEdDb7B-9W`H>[n7AhG3$ATAo0@V?lrB6JQG+F/-BB6%F(@<=^@$<L\[@3B5q/0IH*G%G<0EbBM;6?$RHDfTD?+F/!?Aft`(H$CHLDdmBm+EhBM

Which translates via ascii to

"Statement Remains. Are you still listening?

Join us, Thirtieth October, lets talk about it."

4pm BST tweet:

Using a polybus code box, the numbers translate to:

The Magnus Archives Two

Wish You Were Here chapter 12 always on my mind

like how soft they were here, and then... PAIN

Do you randomly cry over the fact that Quill Kipps went from wanting to stab Lockwood to taking a stab for Lockwood and how that is the best character development you have and will ever see, but still people forget about him and his amazing jokes? .....Or are you normal?

[james-spooky]

i’m so obsessed with this tagline my god….

fear takes many forms (multiple shapes/structures of fear)

fear takes many forms (lots of paperwork bc it’s the OIAR)

gonna be thinking about this for the next 3-6 business days….(the implications of the fears being different in this universe i’m screaming)

[edandstede]

stede was so eager to tell ed he loves him and when he realised ed wasn’t ready he told him he loves being near him instead, like. this man. this man. he said “okay i know you can’t hear that i love you in those words and that’s okay but you still deserve to hear that i love being around you, that it feels good to be with you, that i’m happy just breathing the same air” and that’s so fucking lovely. respecting that boundary but still reassuring ed all the same, just finding the gentlest way to do that. he made sure ed knew he was treasured, that he was important, that stede valued his presence. “i love your chin, naked or otherwise” do you think ed has ever EVER had such sweet things said to him? nobody has told this guy they love his chin. but stede does! i hope he kisses ed’s chin every night before bed actually. said it before and i’ll say it again: that’s his ed! that’s his edward.

CHRISTMAS STORY!!!!! post canon ithink

[starglitterz]

hello! sorry for disappearing, i've been in hospital and also fighting the depression demons ☹️ additionally my interest in genshin is seriously waning, especially with the announcement of natlan and all the character designs (where is the melanin...).

however once my semester is over (2 more weeks) i will definitely try to get back into the swing of writing! while i'm uninterested in the current/new characters, i still love all my usual faves so my fics will probably be focused on them as usual <3 i want to finish serendipity and i also have the barest skeleton of an idea for a new smau, so i hope you'll look forward to that ♡

i miss being active here :( can't wait to get back asap 😋🫶

[homoeroticfisticuffs]

some parallels that i noticed in peter's character throughout the films. not watermarked because i forgot

[es-3]

i’m sorry, if jessica died when she was 15, and she’s 6 years older than lockwood, and she died 6 years before he showed lucy and george her room at the end of the whispering skull, which takes place the june after the november of the screaming staircase, which is 6 months after lucy joins the agency, and george joined a year before her, that means that he was 15 when he showed them the room, 14 when lucy joins the agency, and 13!! when george does. he was either like 12 or 13 when he started the agency. i thought they were like 16 screaming staircase and 18 by the end of it this is so weird

[calla-starkflowerstew11]

During the creeping shadow

Lockwood: what's the easiest way to steal to steal a man's wallet?

Lucy: knife to the throat?

George: gun to the back?

Holly: poison in his cup?

Kipps: you're all horrible

Lockwood: Just don’t call me Ant. Or Tony.

Lucy(internally): Does anyone actually call him Tony??

[saltwaterburns]

everyone adores you (at least i do)

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who makes possibly the best morning pancakes in London, just for you.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who is impossible to go to Tesco with, for he will slowly slip things into the trolley, going unnoticed by you until you reach the check-out.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who likes to sneak up behind you and wrap his arms around your middle, pressing his face to the crook of your neck, murmuring sweet nothings.

"You look so pretty, why're you in the kitchen? Tell Lucy or George to come downstairs and come be with me :("

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who had the hardest time letting his walls down for you, but when you held him as he cried, the little boy in him finally felt safe.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who never ever forgets to remind you how cherished you are by him.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who acts annoyed whenever you wear his coat, but the butterflies in his tummy say otherwise.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who acts all grown up and independent, often times rejecting your help, forgetting he is just a boy.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who gets excited whenever you ask about the artifacts cluttering the shelves of his home.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who hates pickles, yet still orders his cheeseburger WITH them, so he can give them to you.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who would rather sacrifice himself for you than think of a plan where everyone (including him) is safe.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who undoubtedly falls for you more and more every time he sees you bonding with Lucy or George.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who had to be convinced for MONTHS just so you could style his hair.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who was pleasantly surprised when you told him you preferred his dark eyes over any light ones.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who swears he hears wedding bells in his head when you start making him fresh orange juice every morning.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who comes into your room one evening and asks if you could put rainbow butterfly clips into his hair.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who pouts like a child when you usher him out of your room where you and Lucy are painting each others nails and gossiping.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who groans dramatically when you tell him all the experiments you've done with the skull along with George

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who is the master of rizz jokes.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who every year on your birthday gifts you a piece of jewellery his mother used to adore.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who insists you cuddle him inside his shirt.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who loves being the big spoon.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who always takes you out to fancy pancy restaurants.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who doesn't really want to let you out on missions, not because he thinks you can't handle it (because you can), but because he is terrified at the thought of you getting hurt.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who insists that you guys need a dog in this house.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who isn't very keen on nicknames, but loves it when you call him Anthony in the middle of the night.

ANTHONY LOCKWOOD who tastes like fresh mint and sweet peach whenever you kiss him.
