#the magnus archives first listen

mag 153 - okay yeah this episode is unsettling but Johnny pronouncing "agape" as "ahga-pe" really threw me off for the rest of it 😭 (I've only heard it as "ah-gahp-eh"). there's another pronunciation that always gets me that throws me off and for the life of me I can't remember it but I know it starts with a D and it throws me off every time because it's straight up a different word for Brits than Americans.

mag 155 - okay yeah I understand why this story is here in relation to the overarching story, but I nearly couldn't get through it, not because the idea of the narrator killing people, but because they were so uppity about it, self-centered people like that are infuriating to me

okay most of the body horror stuff has been manageable, but I DO NOT do eye stuff, and as someone who does bookbinding for fun, Melanie describing the sewing awl gave me a physical, visceral reaction

also I'm gonna miss Melanie on the team :(( I've really gotta stop picking favorites they're always the ones that leave

mag 158 - SO MUCH HAPPENING BUT YO DAISY BEAST MODE (LITERALLY)

I did genuinely forget about NotThem being in the tunnels, sending them on the hunters was unexpected but ig a fun way to tie the storylines together

I kind of had the Elias/Jonah thing spoiled already but really??? they've just had his like corpse in the tunnels?? I guess??

also ik Johnny and Alex have talked about their limited use of swears, and I feel like they've been used well lol

mag 159 -

Jon @ Peter:

[seven-winged-liar]

Yeah, okay so this keeps happening

[egg-noodle]

Mark him up, lads!

[bardic-irritation]

losing my mind what do you mean martin is canonically Down Bad for jon? and jon is canonically ace? these were casually confirmed in the span of like 30 seconds? i thought those were just the typical in-denial fanbase headcanons, they're REAL?!?

[potato-lord-but-not]

quit my job last week and thus gathered up all my work doodles !! thought it’d be fun to share a year’s worth of sillies :)

[primewritessmut]

the fact that jonathan sims was kidnapped by russian circus mannequins for an entire month and his only reaction was “my skin has never been more moisturized” is insane

this man is not beset by horrors, he is inviting them in

[theglowingeyeballz]

I miss listening to this funny man for the first time

[golyadkin]

professional courtesy? don't know her

[evichuart]

this podcast has had me in a chokehold since the end of october and i could not be happier about it

[snake-spire]

Here are the two most embarrassing things a person can do:

1. Look up the voice actors for Malevolent.

2. Look up the voice actors for Slay the Princess because that voices guy sounds awfully similar that guy from The Magnus Archives, the podcast you just finished relistening to.

I was that guy.

mag 162 - well that was,,,, the most unsettling episode yet

mag 165 - this episode is so Alice in wonderland I actually really liked it haha

HE DID IT HE SAID IT HE SAID THE THINGGG

Jon's friendship with Sasha and his eternal willingness to protect her is one of my favorite plot points, it's the main reason I'm still upset that she died first

mag 166 - it's so funny how martin is just riffing off of the pained screams of the victims in the buried because he's bored 😭😂😂

mag 170 - oh,,, this was def the hardest so far. as someone with memory issues and unstable friendships this hit hard, I almost couldn't sit through it

mag 171 - it's fascinating to me that Jared is one of the most genuine characters, seeing how much he's changed himself

[burke-juliet]

[vlad1666]

grant us the sight that we may not know grant us the scent that we may not catch grant us the sound that we may not call

[emrysthemerlin]

The fact that Gertrude literally ran out of assistants and Elias keeps adding more to Jon’s plate when they die horribly (replacing Sasha/not Sasha with Melanie and tossing Basira on for funsies) is amusing to me. Like yeah

(about Gertrude) she’ll probably live on her own and I can’t keep expensing funerals

(About Jon) he’s a wet stray cat who’s getting in fights and needs to be surrounded by people more expendable than him.

[wojtekaneko]

Some silly tma doodles I drew after finishing season 1! I'm really loving this story and all the characters T^T

[theglowingeyeballz]

I see you, John
