Imagine just walking through your apartment building and you see a woman in a red dress crawling with worms standing outside a guy’s door for three weeks. Like. What was going on outside. Did she just kill them or did they just ignore her like “same shit as always” or smth.

Hello, Jon

I will be a little late to work today, I am not sure how late, but I will be there. I have been trying to find a way out of my room for almost two weeks. There is a woman-shaped flesh-hive behind the door, and when I move, it moves, and when it squirms, its worms make this awful squishing noise like some vessel of horror. We are locked in a stalemate and I am slowly running out of canned peaches.

Respectfully, I am in tears,

Martin K. Blackwood

Thanks to the deluxe transcripts, my new pointless headcanon is that Jon doesn't know how to take a screenshot.

#he scanned his fucking phone screen what a dork #also nice to see a rare example of s1 jon not being a dick to martin #and possibly the only official content with jon's name spelled that way? #the deluxe transcripts are great btw it's peak s1 jon commentary #tma #jon sims #jonathan sims #the magnus archives #mag 22

MAG22 Martin in his statement: "you know in a nature documentary?..."

S2 Q&A Jonny on what Jarchivist does for fun: "...watches documentaries..."

JON AND MARTIN WATCH DOCUMENTARIES TOGETHER TRUE AND REAL

I like to think they start as early as s1 when Martin's living in the archives and Jon is staying there at ungodly hours 🥰

Love it

sooo. do u think jane prentiss followed martin to the archive or rather took interest in him bc of his crush on jon. bc the corruption can manifest as “unhealthy love and companionship”… since it was one sided and he was obsessed with him

Jane Prentiss, outside Martin's door: Corruption singer, call that Britany Spores

Martin: Wha-?

PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE CORRUPTION AND METAPHORS TO ABUSIVE/TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS AND UNHEALTHY COPING MECHANISMS?

Oooooh boy, this is one of my favourite topics :D allow me to ramble (i mean, you can't stop me, all you can do is just not post this ask)

MAG 6 - Squirm: The Corruption keeps Harriet from getting help, is captivating to Timothy Hodge.

MAG 22 - Colony: A bit of a reach, but Martin's tendency to "set himself on fire to keep others warm" is why he ended up drawing the attention of Jane Prentiss, who in turn forced him to be alone for 13 days -- and we know self isolation is a common unhealthy tendency of Martin's

MAG 32 - Hive: Jane's knowledge that the hive is hurting her, yet feeling called by it; skin picking is a maladaptive coping mechanism and can also be a sign of ocd, etc; Jane being called "toxic" by her friends, isolation leading to unhealthy relationships/coping mechanisms/whatever the metaphor for the hive is today.

MAG 84 - Possessive: Maggie & Gordie as an unhealthy mother-son relationship? Becoming like those who hurt you, cycle of violence but rotting?

MAG 93 - Containment: Greg's cleaning compulsion is implied to be because of OCD and gets worse after his wife and daughter's death. Maladapitive coping mechanism?

MAG 102 - Nesting Instinct: The beetle took advantage of Benoit's loneliness and desperation for companionship, unhealthy relationships.

MAG 153 - Love Bombing: Cult manipulation tactics are portrayed in this episode, as far as I know, quite accurate to real life. Preying on the lonely and vulnerable, making them feel affection and connection, then yk. the bad stuff happens.

All this to say if you love The Corruption TMA and don't mind seeing gore and a sex scene, you should watch Midsommar. I did with my friend a bit ago and it was really good. The cinematography was phenomenal, so was the story, still in awe of it.

But on the tma topic, the Corruption TMA is really cool and I love talking about The Magnus Archives and the subtext and the analogies and it's like oooooh.

Starting off Spooky Season with some Jane Prentiss Cosplay! I have horrible cough/cold right now, and I think that really helped me nail the ‘has been dead and rotting for years’ aesthetic

[ID: a person with long brown hair posing in a basement in Jane Prentiss cosplay. They are wearing a red dress and black boots, and have brightly colored ‘worm on a string’ toys attached to their arms, legs, chest, and face. End ID.]

The scene where Martin sees Jane Prentiss for the first time has left a big inpact on me ever since I’ve lisened to it, so I tried my best to recreate it

🥺🥺🥺 Jon's first question to Martin is the same as Martin's last question to Jon.

Oh my god, first line of the episode and I'm already losing it. Martin, my beloved...

Are you sure that's what you do, Jon? Because it sounds like that's what the Research department does, which is weird. It's almost like you have no idea what an Archivist is supposed to do...

Also the agony of that pause! Get rekt Martin!

Oof, something. That's harsh. I forgot how dehumanising they were to the avatars back in the beginning, before they knew what was going on.

Although Martin's still down for murdering anyone who crosses him in season 5 so maybe I'm just thinking of Jon.

Lol, I was right, Martin and Jon did have a massive argument about spiders off-tape.

I will always have a soft spot for Web!Martin; him thinking that big, furry spiders are cute will never not be endearing. But Jon hearing him start to describe spiders and immediately cutting him off is so valid. They're soulmates your honour.

Past Jon: Well if Martin likes spiders so much then he can go investigate the horrible ghost spider statement, and hopefully he doesn't end up in a perfectly natural web cocoon. I'm such a good boss.

Past Jon: Actually, scratch that, I'm a great boss.

Eww they're full of black slime??? That's so digusting! Also popping like an egg??? Man, I forgot how terrible these worms are.

Thicc Martin my beloved <3

Is the implication here that his shadow was undulating because the floor was covered in worms?

Haha Jon hates the word spooky. Wait until he hears about Joe.

Hilarious that the Magnus Institute is a universal joke to the point at which Martin equates it with breaking an entering in terms of damage to his credibility with a stranger.

My favourite episode has got to be MAG 22- Schwartzwald.

I just love the Jonah Magnus letters! They had an extra layer of mystery and historical significance to everything Jon is going through. There's just something so tantalizing about being that close to the original answers- what Jonah was doing, why he was collecting ghoulish stories to being with- that this statement introduces.

As the story goes on of course, we learn the answers. But this is where Jon realizes that he's digging up history not just from Gertrude's tenure but also from the foundation of the Institute.

MAG 22 IS SO GOOD!!! i lurve the historical statements i eat them all up (except for the one from smirke i'm sorry robert yours is crazy boring)

i really love your explanation for why you love the jonah letters uwu it's true there really is such an added richness to going back and listening to the historical statements after you've listened to 158 - 160 and you know the whole Deal it's sooooooooo good

and yes i love how job feels more drawn to them as time goes on. he goes from being irritated at how having any way to follow up on a 200 year old statement to realizing that everything from 200 years ago is intimately and immediately connected to the here and now. it's so juicy. it's EXCELLENT metaplot structure.
