He really said you have something I want
Rip king you would have loved the quarantine princess bride home movie
I can no longer go a day without getting hello Jon’d
Me when TMA portrays pessimists and people who struggle with emotional unavailability as humans with feelings:
It’s ok Jon I was also a deeply annoying child
Uhh TMA character sketches (Jon and Martin are coming later)
These designs go crazy tbh
After slowly chipping away at this for a while, I'm finally done drawing the cast of The Magnus Archives!
TMA Season 4!
What a CRIMINAL way to end the season, holy SHIT!
Now I understand why I’ve seen so many artists do scar maps of Jon, it really did all come together in the end. And the way Elias, or Jonah, really, orchestrated it all with the cherry on top of giving Jon a false statement that he couldn’t stop himself from reading; truly the master plan. The words for the Watcher’s Crown ritual itself were very cool, just the right amount of nonsensical almost-rhyming to make it flow nicely.
And the fact that three of the most iconic TMA quotes/moments happen so close together near/at the end of season four is WILD; I was not expecting all of that! First we got “Where are his eyes?” “Where they’ve always been, Martin. Watching over my institute.” THEN “Look at me Martin, what do you see?” “I see… I see you, Jon. I see you!” and to wrap it all up “Jon…?” “Look at the sky, Martin! It’s looking back!” *maniacal, distorted laughter.* Absolutely insane place to leave off. (Also the bonus of Jon using his named attack of “I see you!” on Peter Lukas).
I can’t forget Basira and Daisy, either. Their story is so good, I love me some tragic yuri. (Although for their sakes I hope it gets less tragic tbh; I want them to be happy 🥺). But I’m not that hopeful, considering we got ~2 minutes of Jon and Martin being content at the safe house before things really went to shit. At least Melanie got away, she’s been through so much. And I’m happy she got together with Georgie, that’s so sweet 🥹
The Extinction and the fact that new fears can emerge was an interesting plot thread for this season, both for how it fit with larger events and how it gave us a new kind of spook. I liked the hunger-world amusement park one the most, I kept thinking about it when I went to the fair myself the other day. I also noticed there were more episodes where it wasn’t 100% clear which fear entity was behind the statement, or even that there were multiple involved. Like with ‘A Gravedigger’s Envy’, it could be both The Buried and The End. It was fun to see how the fear entities could be mixed and matched, then of course to find out how that aspect, too, fits into the big-picture meta-plot. After having episodes with this type of spook, it makes more sense how no ritual can succeed if it tries to separate one fear entity from the others.
Season four tied up a lot of loose ends and got the official statements of big names that have been lurking around since season one, like Simon Fairchild, Annabelle Cane, Adelard Dekker, Peter Lukas, and of course Jonah Magnus himself. Personally, I’ve been wondering about the statement of Mr. Paul MacKenzie and which fear entity was responsible for his demise since season one, so I’m glad we got the statement of his son so far down the line to say ‘Spiral’ for certain.
I can’t believe I’m already about to start season five, this has gone too quick!!
i've realized that my complete and utter infatuation with Daisy Tonner doesn't come across in this blog and that just isn't right. live laugh love women.
Jon n Daisy,,,, they're so special to me :((
cw: blood, spoilers
tryed some new style of doing things on this one, and it tured out cool :D
and now I finally can show this cool scratch I made like 2 mouth ago
Daisy and Basira :DD my babes on the Strength Tarot Card❤️❤️❤️
had this idea back in february, don't think too much if it doesn't make sense
The Magnus Archives: mentions a road/ borough I visit regularly/ live in:
Me (a Londoner):
This is almost as good as going all John Amehrst on Elias's office.
Extremely late crack AU where Gertrude and Gerry met the guy with the clown-eating Monster Pig and just took it back to the Institute.
Jonah-James-Elias: I’m compelled to ask why
Gertrude: This is my new service animal.
Jonah: For what service?
Gertrude, with her longest pointed Stare: Eating clowns
Jonah:
Monster Pig, sitting outside Jonah’s office, staring in at him through the door he Knows was closed and locked when he came in: 🐷
And that’s where it stays. The titanic horror-hog wouldn’t go anywhere if it didn’t want to. It’d be there to greet Breekon and Hope the second they tried to walk in with their delivery. It’d devour them and the table in one sitting just to get at the Not-Them.
It’d lay in wait, lurking around Jon and the Archive crew like a massive pink shadow–
Jon: Elias, I understand Gertrude was attached to it, but are you sure we shouldn’t relocate th–
Monster Pig, in the corner: 🐷
Jonah, Knowing it knows where he sleeps: The Pig Stays, Jon
–and turn up at the Unknowing, at which point it would devour the entire circus.
Jon, Tim, Basira, Daisy:
Monster Pig: 🐷
Its job done, it goes snorting off into the night, maybe heading back to haunt its very best friend, Dylan Anderson…after a brief detour.
Jonah, sitting in his cell: Well, the Unknowing was a waste. At least there’s still the Dark Sun to string them along w–
Monster Pig, kicking down the door, having saved the best clown for last:
🐷
tl;dr: The Monster Pig was Flesh-aligned, Stranger-averse, pro-clown-cannibalism, and would’ve saved the day if Gertrude had only taken it away to let it do what it loved
My god, Daisy, I love you almost as much as I love when people make fun of the Archivist.
Also, he's thinking about Maaahtin <3
Amazing!!!
You were meant for something so much greater than yourself. There’s no such thing as destiny, just your own damn bad luck. Now you have a choice to make. We all did. Become What You Fear Most.

people are literally so boring a male character will kill 10000 people and steal candy from babies and theyll be like omg thats my king! but a female character is rude once and theyre like i hope she dies violently
Haha Sims, get it?
vvvvv Open to see The Full Character sheet vvvvv
Hope y’all like it, this is my first time making a fully rendered character sheet in a media that I’m a fan of-
This time i wanted to practice full body with simple shapes and different characters n colors and this can potentially be a reference of mine for future art or animations.
But yeah unfortunately i got influenced by a lot of fanarts online but this one is just my version of it.
I also didn’t just want to post a character sheet so i made memes!
Anyone else deeply unsettled by the Entombed parallels? If you’ve got an Alice anywhere in your name in these universes apparently you get the most horrific claustrophobic fates imaginable.
