Heeeello, humans, non-humans, and everyone in between! I am Michael the Distortion. You may recognise me as one of the following:
The ominous being that stands in the corner of your vision. Their face is just out of sight, and when you turn your head, you cannot see them. Is it me? You think it might be. You don’t know.
The one who serves that which maddens and lies and confuses.
The monster who has trapped you in this wretched place. Why do the doors not lead anywhere? Why does everywhere look the same? How long have you been here? Who are you? What are you? You don’t know what you are. You are scared.
Michael Shelley
That door you’re always seeing? You know the one. Yeah, that one! I almost thought you had somehow forgotten it, for a second. I realise it haunts your every waking moment, but you know. There are many ways to get people to forget things.
Anyway, back onto the topic of the door you’ve been seeing. You should open it. It could be fun! An adventure, some would say.
(//OOC but if anyone wishes to be untagged, feel free to say!)
Boundaries, OOC info, all that type of stuff is below the cut.
OOC Information:
I (the mod) use he/they/it promouns. If this changes … i probably won’t say actually. for when i’m in character, feel free to use any/all pronouns. no need to switch between them feel free to just choose and stick with it (although i would love some variety tbh)
If you have a TMA OC, feel free to interact! Genuinely love that stuff.
Hate messages will either be deleted and ignored or be answered in character.
Send as many asks as you like! They’re all really fun to answer. But don’t expect them to be answered immediately because I have things to do outside of tumblr. Also, time zones. I could be sleeping when you send the ask, in which case it won’t be answered for a while.
Recently I’ve learnt that apparently I’m not meant to tag my posts with the michael distortion tag, so as of right now I’m using the tag #keychain eating for my in character posts. This is why. There are a few more posts along that line, but this is the one that inspired me to use keychain eating as a tag.
This account may contain some creepy stuff. If I ever say anything that seems kinda gaslight-y, it’s because i am just attempting to stay in character. the Spiral is all about confusion, after all! To the anon i gaslighted about their drink, you probably made that drink. don’t worry.
Don’t worry about spoiling the Magnus Archives for me, I’ve already finished it. For anyone who hasn’t finished it though, I’ll use the following tag if it ever becomes relevant: #TMA Spoilers. block that tag if you don’t want spoilers. or even just block the spoilers tag, for i’ll be using that tag too on those posts.
I run both this account and @annabelle-cane-offical, in case anyone’s wondering. It has been mentioned before in some posts, but I realise not everyone will have seen those, so I’m just putting it here!
Disclaimers: I’ve never run an officialverse (is that the term?) account. i am not affiliated with rusty quill in any way, shape, or form. this blog is purely for fun and will probably stay that way.
