see this lie, this golden strand of falsehood.
abhsjdkkf i've been pestering my friend to listen to tma. honestly pretty accurate description of the first season
nobody fucking talk to me rn
[ID: A Magnus Archives comic of Jon and Martin in the Lonely. Jon frantically pulls at a dead-eyed Martin's collar and shouts, "Look at me, Martin... Look at me! What do you see...?"
Martin, dispassionate, says, "I see..." Then his expression clears with surprise, and Jon looks tearily and utterly relieved as Martin says, "I see you, Jon." End ID]
Some Jmart yuri. Again.
kind of a chad move for tma's thesis on humanity vs monstrosity to be that there's nothing more human than deciding to be a monster. kindness is plenty human, too, sure, but being driven to do something terrible out of fear and desperation is about as fundamentally human as it gets.
whenever I hear an avatar's statement about how they ended up sacrificing their selfhood to become a creature of pain and torment I never think "wow this is incomprehensible to me," it's usually "yknow what? I get it."

Would Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives have a Decidueye?
Yes, they would
No, they would not
see results :3
Please reblog for larger sample size :)
"the magnus archives sounds cool! what are the content warnings?"
kidnapping stalking insanity sleepwalking cannibalism and teeth, gaslighting gun violence pipe murder and silence and medical trauma and meat. bugs in your body and poisoned black coffee and self-mutilation and lies, police brutality breaks from reality suicide spiders and eyes. paaaaaranoia degloving the uncanny valley and running like prey to survive, agonies torture and drowning and falling and then being buried alive.
@felagund-fiollaigean your lyrics scanned too beautifully, i had to XD
@felagund-fiollaigean UPDATE: I JUST NOTICED THERE'S A LONG VERSION
@cthulhu-with-a-fez hope you don't mind I added you a backing track
"what even happens in the magnus archives" Everything Happens In The Magnus Archives. it's all in there. you name something that is in any way scary or unpleasant and it's in there somewhere. if you have a niche phobia or recurring nightmare of any kind, no matter how obscure you may believe it to be, then one day you are going to queue up an episode and listen to the intro music play and then they'll read out the title "episode 42069, catching you in 4k" and recite your own personal worst fear Directly into your ear canals, in exactly the words you would use to describe it. the sixth episode is about exploding worm sex that kills you. and then there are 194 more episodes after that.
Magnus Archives Spin The Wheel Game:
You are being hunted down by this entity for a week straight. That means you are being hunted by manifestations of this entity and might find yourself in similar situations to past statement givers.
This character will help you survive. Their role is to give advice and help defend you against anything that tries to cause harm. How good they are at those two things depends solely on who you spin.
Of course, this is a game. And what's a game without some rules? Spin this wheel to be assigned a situation that will either help or hinder you.
Now, Would Survive The Week?
Yes and without a doubt. I won the spins.
It's likely. My chances are really good but there's still room for error.
It would be a real close call but I think so.
Maybe??? It's 50/50.
I am so unbelievably doomed.
I don't think I would but if luck aligned the right way I might be fine.
It would be a real close call but I probably wouldn't make it.

"Thank you for teaching us the insides"
i just finished the show 3 years too late but HOOOOLY
I FORGOT TO REUPLOAD THIS STUPID JOKE
I laughed WAY too hard while making this btw
i don't forgive you. but thank you for this
there's a very specific flavor of passive aggression from elias bouchard that i feel like a lot of people forget about. before he was fully mask-off, he didn't say things like "now jon, i'm very disappointed in you letting the archives get attacked by worms." that's too easy, too obviously evil. it's more like "oh jon, i'm so sorry, are you alright? you should go home immediately. don't even think about coming back here and exploring the tunnels, i mean it."
he has plausible deniability of caring, while we also know he dragged his feet for ages before actually doing anything like updating the fire suppression system, and shittalking both jon and martin behind their backs to sasha. but crucially, he planted toxic ideas without actually taking ownership of them. even when he WAS shittalking to sasha, he was still like "oh geez, i was wrong about them, i thought they were exaggerating, but i mean, you know what THEY'RE like." simultaneously making himself look like a doofus and letting SASHA fill in the blanks about how her friends are stupid and unreliable, while also implying that of course that would be WRONG to think.
master of the "don't think of pink elephants" technique.
martin, for all his faults, at least knows when he's being self-destructive. he is acutely aware, even. jon, on the other hand, will look directly at daisy and say "it's all very rational, my back up plan for if I couldn't get you out of the coffin was that it would just kill me and if that didn't happen I was hoping that you'd just kill me."
jon knows that depression and ptsd exist but he thinks he's immune to them and that all his fantasies about being put down like a dog are merely the reasoned thoughts of a scholarly mind
or, to be fantastically blunt: jon doesn't think he's suicidal, he thinks he's right
