->->-> NEW VERSION (fixing the saturation of Sam's skin and with other extra things)

[hikaaa-bi]

oh btw sam is the "physically cannot hold eye contact for more than 0.5 seconds" autistic and lena is the "stares right into the depths of your soul because she was taught that not making eye contact is disrespectful" autistic, this is canon and no one can change my mind

[noodlesewp]

The O.I.A.R staff have a special place in my heart where that place is eludes me I need them to explode

I love thinking up alice’s entity earrings

[oh--joy]

the extent to which i am already so normal abt her would blow most people's minds i think.

also lena!

[thermodynamic-comedian]

the thing i kind of love about lena's whole "wdym the horrors are after you lol that's normal. that's supposed to happen actually" approach is that at first it's funny, but when you think about it a little more it's. incredibly tragic and indicative of a decade's worth of repressed trauma, and that desensitization of that level is not something the human mind does unless it absolutely has to for the sake of its own survival.

but then you stop thinking about all that and it goes back to being funny again.

CHAT LENA EXPRESSED EMOTION VERBALLY THIS IS A PNCE INA LIFETIME PHENOMENON

Major spoilers for The Magnus Archives / The Magnus Protocal:

I seen everyone talking about Celia being suspicious as heck, but one thing I haven't seen anyone talk about was the military group in the latest episode [Give and Take <7>]. Perhaps I am wrong but I think I finally figured out the titular protocol.

It is to stop a mass ritual.

After all it is called the Magnus Protocal after the man himself who constructed the first successful mass ritual we are aware of and in the latest episode was a group of various avatars working together for some strange reason. My assumption is that it was an attempt at a mass ritual which was stopped via the hired military contractors and which the protocal is hinged on.

The man questions I have is if Lena may not be a eye avatar, but instead a web avatar or perhaps who's boss is one. As the web would have a vested intrest to insure they will not be trapped in this reality.

nothing screams scary authority figure to me like middle aged Indian woman so that’s Lena to me

Daily TMA 211 (TMAGP) - Lena Moment

[s1i9d]

I hope you don't mind, but now that I've finally found someone who's listening to Magnus Protocol but hasn't listened to Magnus Archives I will be studying you like a bug under a magnifying glass. I've been dying to know how the show hits from a non archives perspective. So in that vein, if you don't mind me questioning you, what are your overall thoughts on the show so far? Also what's it like seeing the fandom response from people who have listened to archives? Have you been successful in avoiding spoilers?

Honestly I’ve been loving Protocol.

I’m not 100% sure what to translate since I don’t know what Archives context I’m missing, but I can try to tell you what I really like about Protocol.

I really do love the format of Protocol. It’s mostly an office drama story, which on its own is appealing, but the statements from FR3-D1 put in each episode gives the story this underlying horror aspect to it. So when I listen to an episode, often times if the statement portion feels lacking, the office drama really brings up the episode and the vice versa.

Then things start to get a lot more creepier when the two intersect (The Magnus Institute, Mr. Bonzo, Lady Mowbray, the Drowning Victim, the Archivist, etc.) and by this point in the story, we’re so close to having a full merge.

Since this is my first real dive into horror podcasts, I do want to engage with the fan community, but it’s hard to balance being spoiler-free at the same time. I do know some general spoilers that I haven’t updated in a while, but is mostly still accurate. I don’t know what an Archivist is, but I am aware that AU versions of Archives characters have made their debut here.

I am aware that Protocol is going a lot faster than Archives. From what I understand of Archives, it has a lot more slow build up rather than Protocol which I has a pretty good pace. Might be because Protocol has less than half the episodes as Archives.

It’s really interesting how the fandom keeps losing their minds over stuff that I’m just like “yeah cool let’s see where that goes”. Like E26 where the Archivist was named, I felt like I took on the perspective of Alice/Gwen/Sam where I’m like “okay… and this means what?” while the rest of the fandom is taking the Celia perspective of “OH NO”.

Or even this recent episode where this Minister Trevor Herbert dude was. Like I have no idea what this dude is and why everyone is absolutely screaming, crying, throwing up that he’s here, and that is fascinating.

It’s been pretty interesting when I bring up something that felt weird or off that just went nowhere, and my friends revealing some info. I’m like “WHAT” and they’re just like “oh thats not common knowledge?” And I’m just there like “huh?!?” Which turns out, the Hilltop Centre was actually important.

I mostly wish the fandom would tag archives spoilers with #tma /#the Magnus archives / #tma vague just so that spoilers could be tagged a little bit better, but to be fair I am one of the rare people that doesn’t intersect the Venn diagram between archives and protocol.

But overall, I really am loving Protocol. I don’t know when I’ll listen to Archives (probably after Protocol’s three seasons are over) but I will listen to it eventually. Feel free to send more asks my way.

[hikaaa-bi]

you don’t understand how much i love her

[dontbelasagne]

can we appreciate how theres not just one **main** character for tmagp? you start ep one thinking how neat it is following the sarcastic queer icon Alice and how she will survive terrible things by pure wit alone, but then get introduced to Samama being the one to become buddies with the h o r r o r s first and wonder if he will be our main entry into gradually breaking down. but then we are greeted with Colin and his suspiciously close encounters with the strange technical features of the OIAR and potentially being put front and centre to mortal dangers. but, and you've guessed it, then we find ourselves with orderly Gwendolyn who happens to have the surname Bouchard and a keen eye (ha) on securing the position of Lena Kelley, a person who doesn't find it necessary to hide the weirdness of their occupation and the type of "person" one must be to manage it. until ep 2, when Alice comes to mention how you just have to find your way to compartmentalise all the harrowing information you come across, and how it's funny (worrying) these voices randomly turned up a year ago, and how odd it is everyone else tends to ignore the speech-to-text voices but Samama has immediately begun his own personal interest into what this all means and how dangerous that is in order to not lose yourself. you begin to realise how this isn't a single persons one track destiny to fearful damnation, but a whole warped and crippling angst that has the potential to suddenly avalanche in horrific pleasure and hurt EVERYONE in its path.
