ELIAS: I warned you, Peter. GWEN: I thought you’d want to see this. It’s really quite amusing, actually. ELIAS: He played you like a… like a cheap whistle. GWEN: I’m in charge now. You heard. Lena’s been let go on multiple counts of negligence, incompetence, possibly even corruption. (Elias and Gwen’s laughter overlap. The Mr. Bonzo Theme begins playing in the background) (computer beep) /end ID]
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Looking forward to Protocol Season 2!
The universal experience of-
"oh god damn it. It was actually a tragedy horror podcast"
Every single person had that moment of looking at the description, then the cover art, and then the 10 episodes left and feeling a sense of absolute dread.
Also, Jon never had plot armor, he had plot knives that just kept stabbing him over and over until the world ended.

Thoughts in the tags
Not to beat a dead horse, but the naming conventions in the Magnus Archives are truly delightful. Jonny really said, “Here’s a cast of fascinating characters! Their names are:
My actual full legal name
The first names of my friends + the last names of famous horror writers
Michael (x4)
They all die horrible deaths :)”

fake idgafer. i saw tht haunted look in ur eyes
y’all just— thinking about how excited Stanley must have been to host the twins— Alex says he smokes cigars but he doesn’t smoke once in the show— has a beer gut but he only drinks sodas in front of the kids— doesn’t swear when they’re around which must have taken INCREDIBLE effort— Stanley Pines, known crook, buying pancake mix at the supermarket and many bottles of syrup— learning to cook basic healthy meals and burning so many of them before he gets it right— buying new sheets, new mattresses— avoiding bunk beds because it reminds him of Ford— looking at the attic room he made wondering “is this enough will they like me”— trying to act aloof at the bus stop so he doesn’t betray the fact that he was there hours early— watching them goof around and thinking of New Jersey beaches— then the first night they’re there, he watches them debate running away and only stay because Mabel shook a magic 8 ball. That must have kept him awake all night.
the magnus archives is a workplace comedy
DELTARUE TOMORROW!!!!!!

Never kill yourself.
Commission for @tea-moth11 for the fic "Cancelled Plans"! Thank you for the support!
Still indecisive on what his hair texture is, but I'm getting somewhere! Side note, Martin baiting Elias into traumatizing him is one of his most badass moments in the entire show. I really love the image of him in absolute shambles, miserable and angry, falling apart as Elias leaves the room, but he knows that this time he won. Anyways, I love him sm he deserves all the things
