MAG 116 - The Show Must Go On
doodle 116/200; days left - 4/110 14/128
woooooo new style!! :))) it needs some refining but it was (surprisingly!?) fun
background without the mechanical turk under cut bc i kinda like the vibe
The Show Must Go On and it’s a Gertrude one. I love Gertrude. Yes, I know she did terrible things her assistants but it’s very nice to have an older woman character who is not just a fluffy dementia ridden non-entity
And I love the use of the Mechanical Turk. It’s a fantastic thing and perfect to be used in a horror story about manipulation (and if you like this story I’d highly recommend reading Anna Mazzola’s Clockwork Girl)
Elias so office manager - insisting everyone going to save the world keeps their receipts to claim expenses
And now - Jonmartin. Jon insisting that Martin stays behind. Very insistent. Does Jon know how much Martin matters to him yet? He’s very all-knowing when it comes to everyone else, is he self-knowing? Anyway. The reason Jon insists Martin stays behind is rubbish - he’s obviously not wanting Martin in danger.
And poor Martin, pissed off ‘sit around drinking tea until the world ends!’
Jon: Martin absolutely cannot come on this very dangerous mission
Elias: oh worm?
Jon: for absolutely platonic reasons that I totally didn’t just pull out of my arse
Elias:
BASIRA
Do you think he bought it?
MARTIN
We’ll talk about it later.
ARCHIVIST
I doubt there’ll be time, we need to go.
MARTIN
It’s fine. We’ve got this, okay?
oooohhh and the second elias is gone, martin drops the ‘im just an ineffective toady’ act and starts directing things, reassuring people
MAG 116
ohhhh noooo. this isn’t gonna end well for tim is it?
Fucking losing it over “Yes I am dragging all my assistants to blow up a ritual and possibly die. Not you Martin, you stay safe <3″
