I'm just now realizing that Tachibana's most effective move is to get up really close and shoot people point blank in the abdomen. fndsajkgfnbfdjhgnfdjhngkad

[gotinterest]

Tachibana doesn't need a King Form when he's got his Supreme Technique: Tricking someone into getting close enough for him to shoot them point blank.

I call it the Tachibana Special :)

The strongest guy in the Magnus Archives is that one guy who was so obsessed with his dog that he just walked right out of the Spiral because it was her dinnertime

[discopiranha]

This is one of my favorite episodes. Fears can't hurt you if you're chill enough. The guy who walked in a spiral for four hours and then just left because he remembered he had somewhere to be is, to me, the avatar of the entities' fear

[strangehorse]

strongest people in the magnus archives:

guy who kept the coffin of the buried in his living room and used it as a coffee table

walked out of the spiral because his dog needed dinner

the plumber who was so inattentive that the stranger put on a whole spectacle for him and he straight-up missed it all

the guy whose primary concern with the evil taxidermists was whether or not they were money laundering (they weren't)

[ace-scientist]

AND he didn’t even realize evil taxidermy was at play for the longest time because he came in like “I love and respect autistic people, of course I’m not judging eye contact”

[wizardarchetypes]

we CANNOT forget the woman that was actively being swallowed by the buried and when there was nothing she could possibly do she lied down on the ground and accepted her fate so thoroughly and with such calm that it had to barf her back up.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

And if my memory is correct she KEPT TAKING THE UNDERGROUND TO WORK

[naamahdarling]

The lady who survived an encounter by going along with it and for at LEAST 24 hours just...joined in carrying armfuls of meat to the giant meat hole and dumping it in.

But yeah, dog walk guy is the strongest. So oblivious he barely realized anything had happened. I love him.

[redcoatsuggestions]

The Phoenicia, built in 2007–2008, is a modern replica of a 600 BC Phoenician merchant ship.

Inspired by ancient shipwreck discoveries near Marseille, the vessel was constructed using traditional methods to recreate the maritime achievements of the Phoenicians—master seafarers who once transported gold from Africa, tin from Britain, and linen from Egypt across the ancient world.

reading about the participation of children in rituals as a form of play in ancient greece and came across an incredibly charming story from julius pollux's onomasticon where a flood prevented the adults from reaching a sanctuary to sacrifice a ram to heracles, and the children solved the problem by....sticking a bunch of sticks in an apple to give it "legs" and "horns" and offering it as a sacrifice instead. it's such a charming thought and i can perfectly picture kids these days also pretending at sacrificing an apple "goat" at recess

[thoodleoo]
