#chester and norris

Protocol is actually just us Magnus Archives fans rapidly descending into s2-Jon-levels of paranoia. Granted, just like s2 Jon, we have reason to be paranoid, but it's still hilarious to see us all collectively scaling the walls of our enclosure while frothing at the mouth over our theories.

Jonny and Alex are playing us like a cheap harmonica and I'm so here for it

Running theory given that we now have proper readings of cases from all of them:

Norris - Personal Connections, the stories with an underlying sense of romance, of regret and most notably of poetry.

Chester - Warnings, telling you to stay away, not to look, not to observe, but curious all the while. A statement of Stop, I can’t make you but Stop before you can’t go back.

Augustus - Historical accounts, Give and take, hunger and legacy, of answering unasked questions, of selfish ambition.

And that’s the vibe I’m getting :D

Lmao my TikTok was too long to upload here so I’m just gonna retype it all out

Chester and Norris: Are they really Jon and Martin?

Wrong question imo! The BETTER question is: How MUCH of Jon and Martin are Chester and Norris?

The fact is these programs have SOME link to Jon and Martin, Jonny and Alex would not be voicing them otherwise, so what it comes down to is how much of a link?

Because it could be that it’s ONLY their voices. Annabelle explained to Jon that the tapes belonged to the Web, and that by “taking his voice” Jon was therefore bound to the Web and the other fears by extension. It’s entirely possible that when the Fears left Archives’ universe, they brought Jon (and Martin as he was also on the tapes) voices over with them, but JUST the voices. Nothing else. It’s just a coat of paint over the entities methods of collection, Chester and Norris aren’t Jon and Martin anymore than glasses are the person wearing them

But I’m not sure that’s the case. There’s a lot of holes there. The main one being: why? If it is just hollow voices, then why? What’s the purpose of the fears using them? It’s only been two episodes, so it might be answered later, but let’s talk about the second possibility

Chester and Norris ARE Jon and Martin, they just aren’t aware. When Martin “cut the tether” in episode 200, he didn’t cut the Fears away from Jon, he cut the Fears away from the world and at that point, as the Pupil of the Eye, Jon was part of the fears. Since Martin was in the panopticon when they went, he went too.

And now we have a disembodied Jon and Martin existing in a dazed but still hungry state. They seek out whatever’s familiar and since there’s no Magnus Institute, they go to the OIAR, get into their system, and read out any “real” statements they can find. Feeding off of them.

In this possibility, Jon and Martin are effectively asleep. They aren’t aware of what they’re doing really, just going by their new instincts/nature. But I think the more they feed, the more conscious they’ll become, and we’ll start to Chester and Norris break script. Stutter over a word. Add words. Things that a text to speech program simply CAN’T do even if glitched to shit

What complicates this possibility is the fact that Alice said they only showed up a year ago when it’s implied the OIAR has existed much longer than that as well as the fears in this world. It could be they move from place to place feeding off what they can, and when that’s bled dry, they move somewhere else? If they’re as intertwined with the fears as this theory implies, they could exist across infinite universes, staying alive like this

I’m not sure! It’s super interesting tho. I think the saddest ending would be if it’s never really answered, and Jon becomes, at least in some ways, a mystery

I really want there to be people who haven't listened to tma who tune in to protocol. Like imagine, you start a new podcast and when you go online to see people talking about it you find out that the tts voices that read out some of the cases are actually an eldritch gay couple from another universe.

Listening to Magnus Protocol like

[future-crab]

A lot of Magnus Protocol fans are concerned about what sort of horrible purgatory state Chester and Norris exist in, but my main reaction has been “hee hoo silly little guys are telling me about the horrors again 🥰🥰🥰”

What I love about The Magnus Archives/ The Magnus Protocol is that I can fully be listening to the most horrific, beautifully written account of a man who’s clearly murdered someone slowly and painfully turning into a tree, imagine each detail in perfect clarity, and go “haha, nice”.

Idk folks, horror audio drama is wild.

so it’s fairly clear that jon (chester) is trying to warn our beloved protagonists about The Horrors (tmagp11 when alice talked about strange dreams, he gave a statement to someone named allison about the very same) and many, many other instances of statements.

what if it doesn’t work. who are we kidding, of course it won’t. it didn’t.

sam, despite the very clear warning in episode one, explored the magnus institute. the warnings didn’t work.

jon is yet again doomed to just watch as bad things happen. he cannot change events, they are inevitable.

so he will wait, he will listen, and he will watch. just like he always has.
