magnus protocol being fanfiction to me means that part of me really really really wants Sam to pick up a random tape - probably finding the one that seemingly fits the most his own preoccupations (i can't decide which one would be best, sadly, right now) - and then he hears "statement by jonathan sims, head archivist of the magnus institute, london" and HE reacts - obviously - but mostly I starts weeping cause jon. my jon. my beloved. etc.

[telumendils]

hello, average tumblr user. your challenge is to name a canonically lesbian female character in the tags of this post. if you name a male character for any reason, you will be shot in the head. good luck.

I'm making a Michael the distortion cosplay and have already put the obvious spirals and squiggles and funky patterns and shapes on the clothing, what else should I put? Any suggestions?

[poorlythoughtoutdescisions]

i will say the funniest part of tmagp was seeing Gwen's last name in the credits of the first episode and flipping out because she's? a bouchard? as in elias bouchard? and then when it's finally mentioned in canon it's "yeah my uncle was an idiot and got himself killed by pipes :/"

I love Alice Dyer so much. She's genuinely annoying. She takes jokes too far to the point of actual cruelty. She uses humour to hide her feelings and confusion to distract others from theirs. She's dumb in love with her ex-boyfriend. She has a weird homoerotically antagonistic relationship with a woman who later becomes her boss. She knows the place she's working for is supernaturally evil and mostly does not care. She named the inexplicable talking voices in her work’s computer system. She supports her brother's music career. Her parents are dead but so far that has not been remotely relevant. She's canonically trans. She goes to Berlin and ends up in a buddy cop movie with a children's bogeyman. She chooses to be murdered instead of passing on an evil toy to her friend's kid. She gets the choice taken from her and lives anyway. In an alternate universe, the man she loves is dead, and she willingly relives her worst nightmare every night just to see him again. In this universe, she successfully sacrifices herself for a different version of him, not caring that he is not the same person as her husband was, nor that he does not love her back in the same way she loves him. There's no funny ending to this, I just really love Alice.

PSA: NEW SCAM ALERT

AO3 team will NEVER contact you via your fic’s comments section!!!!!!!!

if you get a comment from someone claiming to be from AO3 in any way, shape or form, IT IS A SCAM.

if you get a comment from someone claiming they work with AO3 and that your AO3 account has been compromised or restricted somehow and that you must contact xyz or open a link they give, IT IS A SCAM.

they want to hack your account and/or steal your credit card/personal information (because the link they want you to click on will require your login info and/or your other sensitive information!!!!)

*the same scam tactic can be seen on tumblr where these scammers claim to be someone from tumblr team too

DO. NOT. FALL. FOR. IT!!!!!!

here’s AO3’s official statement about it

here’s the post I made that covered other types of bots

don't go into the humanities because they're unprofitable and don't go into stem cuz its getting torn apart right now and don't go into buisness because it's competetive and speculative and don't go into education because it pays like shit. Just lay on thr ground. Just lay on the ground.

Your regular reminder that, canonically, the events of The Magnus Protocol began on January 9th, 2024.

In universe, the date is now June 24th.

It has been just over six months since Sam started working at the OIAR.

Sam went missing and Colin got eaten on May 14th, 2024, just over a month ago.

Teddy has been employed at his weird new insurance job for the past six months.

Gwen got Lena fired just over a month ago.

ok so i’m picking up implications here 😀😀😀😀 is he 😀😀😀 at the 😀😀😀 is that a 😀😀😀

[chryseis]

Remember when Tim, the funny, snarky character in TMA had a brother he was close with, who disappeared and was brutally murdered by the supernatural? And now we have Alice, the funny, snarky character in TMAGP, who has a brother she's close with who seems to possibly be missing?

Anyway, I'm sure this means nothing.
