Jon’s little whispered “it is remarkably easy to buy an axe in central London,” will always be one of my favourite random lines from TMA. The police may claim to be tackling knife crime but nothing can stop one (1) sleep deprived archivist with unchecked paranoia

#I say that like I’d react any fucking different #lmao watch me sneaky sneak into haunted tunnels with an axe I just somehow bought in Chelsea #as if they’d let me into Chelsea lmao #I barely survived going to college in Westminster #tma #mag 78 #out of context spoilers I guess?? #magpod #the magnus archives

tma will drop raw ass shit like “It’s weird to think about people you knew as a child. You change so much, and when you talk to them again, they’re not talking to you. They’re talking to someone else, someone you used to be. The person they think they’re seeing has been dead for years, but they didn’t see the change. They’re looking at a complete stranger, and they have no idea.” and then expect you to go on with your day completely fine and unchanged

I am defending Jon with my entire being here, DESTROYING THE TABLE WAS A SMART MOVE, THE UNIVERSE JUST HATES HIM.

It’s a logical move! How was he supposed to know that the Not!Them would be released? Horror movie logic says break the item!

‘but i am damn sure it is going to hurt.’ he says as he frees the monster and fulfils its greatest wish

#this would’ve been an iconic line if it weren’t so very misguided #i am forever a jon defender but even i can’t defend this #to be fair he had no reason to know better #mag 78 #the stranger #jonathan sims #jon sims #tma #the magnus archives #tma spoilers #spoilers

Love how Tim Stoker heard Jon say go home and take a break and immediately was suspicious. Like my workaholic boss whom I despise is giving me the day off (paid)??? There's something Very Wrong.

👁️He can see you staring👁️

Ah yes can we get a round of applause for the Titular Bastard Man.

I like to imagine that his evil mastermindness could not predict Jon’s audacity to carry a fucking axe into the archives.

mag 78 - distant cousin

you know what? i will defend jon's decision to destroy the table, and every time i see someone say it was 'obviously stupid or whatever i want to combust. was it the smartest decision? no. but what choice did he have? just sit around, knowing this creature imitating his friend and colleague was in the midst of them? i think an aspect of jon's character that people often ignore is that he always needs to do something. he literally can't just do nothing. also, i find the table confusing as fuck, so i don't think the conclusion of destroying it = destorying the not-them is super unreasonable

this episode also sets up so much of jon's future character. because i think this is really the first time we see him pushing people away for seemingly no reason (to them. we as the audience know why) to then do something incredibly dangerous and maybe a little bit stupid. up until this point he's been glad to either send others off to do these things or to let them be at his side in the madness. now he feels this need not only to do something, but also to do it himself, and although this behaviour initially seems to be born out of paranoia and mistrust, as the show goes on it turns into being about guilt and a martyr complex

i love weedy little british men named jonathan attacking something with a weapon or tool of varying suitability to the task at hand to little effect, sometimes even making it actively worse.

Mag 78

Oh no 😭 the Archivist is sad because his friend is dead 😭 i miss the days when i could mock him for being oblivious, this is just a bummer.

This aligns with the NotThem's pattern of leaving a witness that wasn't close with the victim (assuming that it even has any control over who is left unaffected by its reality-altering powers).

Haha Carl rules.

Yeah, okay. This part got me fucked up.

I'm still unsure if the NotThem knows who the witness is or not. That long pause and slow smile could be intentional creepiness to freak the statement-giver out or it could be the moment of realisation because it's just discovered who it gets to torture.

I've got to shout out Jon here for not doing what everyone else seems to instinctively do and draw a bunch of attention to himself by running around asking everyone suspicious questions about the NotThem's victim.

Okay, so is the timing here coincidental? Was Not!Carl already on the way over here to torture his cousin, or did he decide to come over because the photos of the original Carl were discovered and he somehow sensed it? I think I lean towards the latter.

Oh, I see we have a new contender for Most Passive Statement-giver! Letting a monster into his house and spending the afternoon sitting in silence with it because he was just too fucking British to slam the door in its face.

Oh cool, it sounds like the NotThem has something similar to the Chameleon Circuit from Doctor Who going on. It encourages people to not look too closely at it.

But looking closely enough does enable you to see the true shape of the monster underneath the illusion, like Jon did when he ran into Not!Sasha in the tunnels.

jonathan you dumbass you clown you fool you absolute buffoon you stupid idiot motherfucker. i would like a word with him. HOW did he extrapolate that destroying the table would hurt not!sasha??? bestie did we read the same statement he said it was ANGRY to be tied to the table with spiderwebs!!! like i know i've seen his future and he hasn't but there's. a level of stupidity i gotta side with michael here it really wasn't our boy's brightest moment.

man, talk about being caught between a rock and a hard place.

also?? "I See you now" and "you need a door :)" CHILLS. JUST CHILLS. WHAT A BANGER FUCKIN EPISODE 10/10 THANK YOU GOOD DAY.

Pretty sure I would have come to the same conclusion. Thinking if the creature's life is bound to the object, destroying the object would destroy the creature etc.

If I recall correctly Jonny said in on of the q&a's that Jon actually subverted here the normal idiot action of the horror genre protagonist and went for the smart thing, which backfired because this is the tma world and nothing here is fair at all.

So an idiot? I don't know. Rash? Definitely. Alone with no one to confer with to get a different perspective ? Definitely something he believed at the time
