SLASH N’ PRIDE
Some drawings I made for stickers. Remember queer topics and people had always been in horror media.
((not all characters with specific flags are personal headcanons, some are based on their production/creative development, scenes from their movies, or just for fun!))
A Summary of the Magnus Archives, written by someone who has never listened to it
So there’s an archive, and they keep scary stuff in it. The archive is one really long hallway like the one in the penitentiary episode of Buzzfeed Unsolved, and I think every door has a monster behind it? It looks like this. The main character is just roaming around with a tape recorder.
For the first few episodes you aren’t aware there are characters. Then later you meet the archivists. They have names like Peter Lukas, who is a rip-off of Peter Nureyev but also is kind of like Cutter from Wolf 359, Elias Pritchard I think is how you spell it, Basirah, who is a bad-ass I think, Martin, who is very soft and sweet and looks kind of like Aziraphale, and Jonny Sims. The guy who writes the show is also named Jonny Sims, like Night Vale.
The whole show is kind of a weird mash-up of Night Vale, Wolf 359, The Bright Sessions, and Death by Dying. It takes the oh-no-weird-paranormal elements of WNTV and DBD and the oh-no-Capitalism-is-going-to-kill-us-all elements of TBS and W359. Everyone has a British accent. (I’ve listened to one audio clip and the guy had a British accent so I assume they all do.)
The man that built the archives was named Magnus. I think. Magnus must have been a really f-ed up guy. Then he died. He got eaten by the big crab thing, because apparently there is a big crab thing. Now the archives are run by the Johnny Sims guy, and he has major depression. He’s in denial over the fact that he is gay for Martin. Martin knows he is gay for Johnny but won’t tell anyone. There are lesbians but Elias somebody is lesbophobic. The fandom fights over this a lot.
Basically, the show tells you about the ways that people have died by the monsters, especially the crab-monster, and some other monster that I think is called the Silencer? I imagine it as looking like the Nightmare from Metroid Fusion. I mean look at this goddamn thing.
That’s what the archive is hiding. It’s clearly hiding something. I think Elias and Peter are the bad guys? One of them dies, or maybe both. The Silencer eats Peter I think. Elias gets eaten by the crab. All I know is someone gets eaten by the fucking enormous crab.
I think the show is very diverse, but I see a lot of people yelling at each other about it, so maybe it has issues? Maybe it’s like Voltron. Is this show like Voltron? I used to really like Voltron. Then Season 5 happened and I stopped liking it. I’m not sure how many seasons this show has. Six, I think.
I think the archives are set somewhere where there is snow, because I see snow in fanart a lot, and big sweaters. Maybe like Northern Ireland. That explains the British Accents.
wow you guys are confused and so am I
the American education system says Britain doesn’t deserve rights so if you think I know a single thing about your country or any other British-ish country you are woefully mistaken, next question.
Here is my explanation. A while back, I reposted a series of arts by the talented @its-prettybent (whose consent I sought before making this reply to my post), which featured several podcasts I knew and some I didn’t. The one they made for TMA looked like this:
THAT IS A CRAB, BITCH!!!!!!! A SKINNY LANKY CRAB
…or so I thought. So I’m sorry I broke your fandom over the whole crab thing or whatever
it sounds like Elias deserves it. Johnny Sims, whoever you are, you should have a crab eat Elias. You can credit me in your show notes.
I’ve never seen anybody be this absurdly incorrect over an osmotically absorbed plot before
Lukas is like Nereyev WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK

I think part of what makes the tragedy of The Fly really hit is how the plot unfolds, specifically in how the filmmakers introduce the audience to Seth. He’s a brilliant, quirky loner who loves cheeseburgers. He gets motion sickness really easily. He’s soft spoken and shy but oddly charming. He wears a different set of the exact same clothes every day.
And then he meets Ronnie. And Ronnie changes him. She buys him different clothes. She opens up his lonely world to the possibility of companionship.
And he changes her, too. She doesn’t ordinarily wear jewelry, but she makes an exception for the gold heart-shaped necklace Seth bought for her. She carries his love with her in this small way.
And Seth’s love for Ronnie becomes his undoing. He becomes reckless and jealous and worries that this amazing girl he’s met will be ripped away from him by a man from her past, who is not at all like him.
His very human desire to be loved is ultimately what leads him to test the telepods without doing the proper checks first. His human nature is what rips his humanity away from him.
Flies have no such desire to be loved. Their entire existence is built upon living long enough to reproduce. And suddenly Seth’s love for Ronnie is corrupted by the insect part of his nature. He becomes unfaithful, bent toward only pleasure and animal instinct.
And yet, his humanity battles for dominance. He still wants to be close to her. She — and by extension, their unborn baby — is the last shred of his humanity he can hold onto. But the insect brain corrupts even this impulse.
This movie is the most complete, complex tragedy. And that’s a large part of the horror of it all.
