No our world jmart

While I think there’s a good chance that we’ll get tapes from our world jmart, maybe an appearance in the flesh, I don’t think that TMA’s jmart is going to show up in podcast, outside of previous recordings. Jonny’s too good of a writer for that.

Classism a major theme

Jonny’s said that TMAGP will be a lot more focused on groups rather than individuals like Magnus was. Also, we got introduced to Gwendolyn Bouchard and Grace Wilde. We know the Bouchards are upper class, and Grace is aaid to be quite well to do. I think TMAGP will focus on classism.

Section 31 features

As previously mentioned, Jonny said that TMAGP would focus more on groups. If TMA is individuals in systems of oppression, then TMAGP is about systems of oppression, is what I understand.

Which leads us to the police, which sure is a system of oppression. All cops are bastards, but also all cops are bastardised, the system encourages the oppression, I can see that being explored more in TMAGP.

No mysteries from 199/200 revealed

I think it would ruin the question of “is it right to spread the fears” and the mystery of Jmart’s fate it these questions were answered. Jonny’s too good of a writer for that.

MAG 100 statement givers

Celia’s already there, and I want Robin Lennox to come back.

[ID: A digital illustration depicting a scene from episode 26 of The Magnus Protocol, featuring Sam and Celia. Sam is a fat South Asian man with brown skin, short curly black hair and a mustache, and body hair. He is wearing a cream turtleneck with rolled sleeves, dark red trousers, a brown belt, black suspenders and white socks. Celia is a slim Korean woman with light skin, short black hair, body hair, and piercings, and she is wearing a light green button-down with rolled sleeves, light green socks, dark green trousers, and a purple belt. Her glasses are resting on top of her head. They are sitting on a couch with a blanket draped over the back and a table sitting nearby. The entire image is lit warmly with pink shadows and yellow highlights.

They are kissing with Celia pushing Sam against the armrest with one hand on his chest, and one on his thigh. Sam has one hand on her lower back and the other gripping the armrest. His elbow is knocking over a bottle of "alcohol(tm)" and his expression is tender and passionate. Celia's face is turned away from the viewer. A burst of hearts starts near Sam's head and covers the entire upper area of the image above their heads and the couch. The hearts are a gradient of green, yellow, and red. end ID]

[THEY KISS. SAM KNOCKS OVER THE BEER, BUT NEITHER OF THEM NOTICE]

HI I'M NORMAL <3

[risengrood]

i can't belive they put him in the web again.. anyways THAT TRAILER??? oh manners, excpect only wild theories to accompany this o' art in the future, in theory also now but, i forgor.

anyhoot the boys!!!

[aspookycrow]

Here’s to hoping S2 Lena shows up at Gertrude’s flat like “You still have that boy with you? Good. It’s time.”

[sasha-n-james]

i need Alice to be like

"who do I ask for help???????? police can't help Sam, I can't tell Teddy about this.... who should i--"

and then she calls gwen. her only ally. someone who has firsthand experience with the archivist. "Gwen. things are bad. bad, bad. get here now."

Gwen and Alice team up to find/save Sam and Celia

I know in my soul that Mr. Bonzo is a season 1 villain. His flame is bright, but it's bound to burn out fast. I could be wrong, but I don't think he's gonna make it much further than the s1 finale. At the very least he's going to lose his significance and what is irrelevance, if not death to fictional characters.

He's featured way too prominently so early on to be the main antagonist for the entire series, he's basically a popculture reference, he doesn't even seem to have much of a goal aside from voring people on behalf of the UK government. And most damning of all: he can't monologue.

Listened to it again. Gerry is acting like an excitable child. I'm worried he was traumatized in that program for kids at the Magnus Institute and maybe Gertrude had something done to him that made him forget but also affected the depth of his personality. She sounds like she's taken on the role of caregiver, but that may be too benevolent a term.

I also think all those paintings out back are going to eventually reveal all the things he forgot.

[ashes-in-a-jar]

Sam's statement is exactly what I thought it would be

[mita-vittua-olivia]

i’m convinced these blogs are actually members of the RQ production team because wtf

[spooked-skull-studios]

i dont think [error] is Jon but i DO think its an Archivist

[randomname3]

Sam: oh i dropped the magnus institute research i was probably obssesing

Me: oh cool i wonder how chester will try to draw him back this time

[starsoftheeye]

i need sam and celia to work out.

i dont mean that in the "they both live happily ever after and both survive" no they can die if that is what the plot requires, i just need their relationship to be okay. no petty drama or miscommunications that do nothing for either characters or plot other than be interesting

obviously the whole "alice not being over her and sams relationship" makes for good samalicelia shipping fuel and character-wise it is an interesting view into both of their characters, but i will be genuinely upset if it turns into a boring "which one will sam choose" romantic side plot

i can handle arguments, i can handle the realism of trauma and difficult situations making it difficult to maintain healthy relationships. what i cant handle is throwing away potential for a cheap shock, like we've seen in so many love stories before. what i also dont want is an unrealistic narrative that prioritises a relationship over a story

tma done their relationships very well, where the love was real, and at times it improved characters mentalities and helped develop them as their own people, but no matter how much they loved one another, it didn't save the world, and it didn't change fate. jon and daisy turned into monsters, martin and basira had to kill the people they loved most, sasha disappeared, and tim lost his brother, then himself. their love was never world-saving, and whats done would be done by the end of the day, but their love was real, and thats what made it compelling

as a fan of the characters, of course i want them to have a happy ending, and for everything to work out for them in the end, but as a fan of the show? i want it to hurt. i want to be devastated by these characters whose love was enough to bandage the wound but not enough to heal it

[cult-of-the-eye]

something about characters who see themselves as generally nice/harmless people being corrupted into doing unspeakable acts of cruelty and then finding they have a taste for it

[the-mystical-aquatic-gay]

all i need from the magnus protocol is a afab avatar of the flesh, who hit puberty and just went absolutely feral because of everythig that comes with afab puberty

[a-little-beastie-most-foul]

got a feeling that the new IT guy is gonna be either a) a creature of some sort or b) someone from the TMAVerse
