guys we got an audio clip from TMAGP Season 2 at the MCM panel, as well as the reveal of a theatrical performance about Hilltop Road, I'm so normal about this

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

I think my main problem with the "is ERROR Jon" debate, leaving the voice actor aside, is that I think people are conflating two separate mysteries

Currently, I believe that Jon and Martin are inside the computers and communicating with Sam through both emails and statements, to get him to investigate the Institute

However, I also think that ERROR is the result of the experiment that Sam was part of as a child, presumably to find a new Archivist, and so not related to Jon or the computers at all

(Basically, they're two separate problems, which may be linked, but not like that)

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #I may be wrong and that's fine #I just think that people forget that just because its an archivist it doesn't mean its jon #like what about Gertrude or the creature in the tomb in the Egypt episode #and also TMAGP Jon died 5 years after the institute was destroyed #im honestly just confused why people are convinced its him

has anyone talked about how powerful ERROR is, assuming they're the Archivist, because they seem to be able to compel people with their mere presence, instead of having to directly ask them questions

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

the funniest bit of today’s episode by far

what do you mean the tape recorder BIT THEM??? How is that possible??? Is it sentient or something? 😭

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #ink5oul

so the figure is described like this in the transcript, and does anyone have ideas about what this might mean? I guess it could mean the old TMA universe but idk

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

ok this episode 100% proves that ERROR is the Archivist. Every time they've appeared, the audio is through a tape recorder and someone in the vicinity is compelled to give a statement

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

omg the Protocol was the reason the Magnus Institute burned down

We know that the Protocol is destructive, as the letter said it would destroy Newton's laboratory, so I think it's a fire

The letter was written in 1684, which is only 18 years after the Great Fire of London (1666), which I think they were referring to when they said they had to use the Protocol on the whole city

edit: just found out that historically Newton’s lab did actually burn down so that’s more evidence

edit 2: the letter mentioned an "awful plague" before the Protocol was activated on London, which was probably the Great Plague of London in 1665-1666 (last major bubonic plague epidemic), which the fire actually helped to stop

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #I genuinely think I'm onto something here omg #it makes so much sense

I did some research into Arbor Philosophorum and found out that it was considered a precursor to the Philosopher's Stone and, as described in the TMAGP episode, had fruit-like forms on it's branches

The episode mentioned Wilhelm Homberg, who invented the quickest method for creating this tree (also called Diana's Tree), using quicksilver and silver

also apparently a lot of Newton's work on alchemy was potentially lost due to a fire started by his dog

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #alchemy

is it considered meta to look at the voice actors in TMAGP and make predictions based on that, because I'm seeing way too many people say that ERROR is Jon or Jurgen or something when the voice actor is Beth Eyre and so it's obviously someone different

(I mean it's fine if you just didn't look/realise, but I feel like that should be more common knowledge)

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #idk why but its just been annoying me slightly #maybe its just because I love women #but yeah ERROR is 100% not Jon as much as I'd like to see him again #also the archives were destroyed before he would have been Head Archivist anyway

here's my full TMAGP Archivist theory:

so I think that ERROR is the Archivist because it escaped the Institute and somehow followed Sam and Alice back to London (Alice thought someone was following her) and needed to feed on statements, which explains the two talking corpses (especially the one Alice found).

also the tape recorders have shown up twice. once was at the Institute (the first time we hear ERROR) and the second time was with the drowning victim. so I think ERROR was nearby and the tape recorders only appear in its presence to record it or statements taken from others.

#the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #also just a reminder that ERROR is a new character and not someone we've heard speak before #oh and maybe the experiments Sam was a part of were to find the next Archivist #samama khalid #alice dyer #I'm now convinced that ERROR was the Head Archivist when the Institute was destroyed #this isn't particularly coherent but I'm sticking to it

ok now I'm convinced that ERROR is the Archivist in this universe and it followed Sam and Alice back to London and is now feeding on dead people by forcing them to give their statements

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

WTF CELIA WOKE UP ON THE TRAIN TRACK??? AND IN OXFORD TOO??????

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #celia ripley

The guy in this episode was called Darrien, and the crypto-currency finance bro was also called Darrien and we don't know exactly what happened to him, so what if they're the same guy

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers

guys... there was a what the ghost episode about highgate cemetery... this is how we get a Georgie statement

#the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #tmagp #georgie barker #and a ghost hunt uk statement too #please Alex

I haven't seen enough people talk about how Celia woke up ON THE SIDE OF A MOTORWAY in her pyjamas, and acted like it had happened before

#the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #tmagp #celia ripley #she also immediately wanted to tell Jack #which makes it more likely that it's Jack Barnabas #because maybe they're both from the original TMA universe

so [ERROR] is played by Beth Eyre so I think the three most likely options for who she's playing are:

Lucia Wright - the meat hole lady from MAG 130 (also voiced by her)

A TMA character we never heard speak (e.g., Agnes)

This universe's Archivist (maybe the result of the tests Sam was involved in?)

#tmagp spoilers #tmagp #agnes montague #Lucia Wright #or maybe it's something completely different I have no idea #I highly doubt it's someone like Jon or Jurgen though #the magnus institute
