Martin Blackwood if he'd been The Archivist during the Eyepocolypse.

My friend is listening to the Magnus Archives for the first time (cause of course I'm spreading the brainrot), and she just commented on how expressive Jon is reading the statements, saying "he wants to be a voice actor so bad".

The EVIL laughter that burst from my chest like worms. You have no idea what is coming, my darling friend. You have no idea.

Warning: The Magnus Archives spoilers for end of season 3 and after.

I often think about the fact none of the rituals that Gertrude dedicated her whole life to stopping would have ever worked anyway.

Her whole life, her existence, was for keeping the world safe from those rituals. And it was all for nothing. She never needed to do any of it.

All the blood she spilled, all the trust she broke, all of the humanity she sacrificed, didn't need to be done.

Gertrude didn't need to live her life that way. I can't imagine what sort of devastation that would cause, if she allowed herself to think about it.

This is also part of why Tim's end hurts so much. He didn't actually do anything, did he? The Unknowing wouldn't have happened. He didn't stop anything.

He did not get the control, the big "fuck you" towards the entity he hated that he thought he did. He did not save the world. His actions did not matter. He died for nothing.

The Magnus Archives is such a painful lesson in Existentialism. The whole series is run through with the idea that, on a cosmic scale, we are nothing. Nothing we do can really change things against the horrors of living.

It's so painful, its beautiful.

If I was part of the Magnus Archives crew, and I found out I couldn't be fired, I'd become the most insufferable person ever to Elias Bouchard. Your spreadsheets? Fucked with. Your fancy clothes? Glittered. The horrors? Been spreading rumors to. I told Jude Perry you said it's her fault that Agnes Montague died and you think she's pathetic, so she's on her way here. Of course, I know he's gonna Know everything I am doing, but he's gonna have to catch me first.

i love when ppl draw elias bouchard wearing like anachronistic ass emerald green waistcoats and a monocle in their fanart bc it makes s1 so much funnier to think about. like you know what? yeah actually if i was jonathan sims and my fucking freak of a boss dressed like that and did an evil monologue voice at all times and paid me to read ghost stories in his basement all day, i would also probably be like "yeah this is a deeply unserious job and i am the only normal person here. sick paycheck tho" and then clock the fuck out without ever thinking about those fuckass statements again!! like what are we dunking on him for!! who would chalk that up to anything other than "my weirdass boss has clearly taken his eccentric edwardian magician LARP too far but goddamn if that check doesn't come in every month"

How the horrors really get you: by being so cartoonishly evil you just can't take them seriously.

So I'm back, new name new me and all that jazz, except TUMBLR has decided I'm not actually a new me and keeps showing me things from a fandom I used to like years ago, but no longer do for many reasons.

It's like seeing that person-you-used-to-be-super-close-with-but-now-hate's posts. Like sure, we used to be close, but I actually wanna punch em in the throat now, thanks for the reminder.
