#the magnus protocol [ERROR]

[hezekiahwakely]

Really funny that Colin insists that Alice shouldn't give the computers a personality JUST MOMENTS AFTER he claimed that the computers are fucking with him and him specifically due to their hateful and capricious nature

#i mean part of that is just how you feel working in IT i guess #but its funnier that he wants to pretend nothing weird is going on while also expressing his undying hatred for these sentient machines lol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #tmagp 3 #the magnus protocol #colin becher #also lets not gloss over the jmj error. and the sassy beeps when it refuses to run. you know they are getting salty cooped up in there

[pencildragons]

much as i do DESPERATELY hope that [error] is a tma character, i think it would be very very very fun if they were one of the Fucked Up Child Experiments/archive candidate??? left to rot instead . and sam realising This is what he could've become etc and so on

#[error] tmagp #tmagp #the magnus protocol #magpod #words of wyrm

[gammija]

joking aside, while jonny, alex and tim fearon are all credited as [ERROR], the casting image clearly has different garbled text for all of them. So it seems like [ERROR] is something like a status condition, though how exactly you get it... dimension-hopping? avatarhood? being a computer and/or tape recorder? who knows

TMAGP Theory Board ( EP 10)

Hi guys sorry for the late post I ended up drawing a lot for this update especially because it's the last one before the hiatus so wanted to give it a little more pizazz :D

What Happened in Episode 10: Saturday Night

Interview with Nigel Dickerson. The inccident report this week was all about Mr Bonzo. If you remember from last episode Nigel is the famous tv personality who created the character of Mr Bonzo. During this interview he recounts the rise and fall of Bonzo while being ominous and on edge the whole time. what I gathered from the interveiw is that Bonzo is either trapping Nigel or Bonzo and Nigel are linked somehow. (when he say "he won't let me leave" and refers to himself as "us") we also learn about the murders that are connected to the Bonzo suit, first by the serial killer Terrance Menki and very recently 3 unsolved murders. Nigel also mentioned that the actors who wore the Bonzo suit would be prone to injuries on set which is also really stange. Could be they were used as Bonzo's victims near his begining

Gwen meets Mr Bonzo. The other section of the episode dealing with Bonzo is when Gwen goes to Nigel's house on her first assignment as the Externals Liason. So turns out Bonzo is maybe a hitman for the OIAR! Also, big thing Mr Bonzo is atually alive and is introduced with some kind of practice almost resembling a ritual. I heard somone mention they think Bonzo is an avatar of the Stranger and I can definitely see this. I'd love to hear if anyone else has a theory for what entity Bonzo may be connected to.

The Return of Colin. Colin isn't dead!! Shocking absolutley everyone Colin is still kicking. a few episodes ago he was sent on mental health leave by Lena after his parnoia caused him to mentally snap. Celia sees him while on break and they have a short convorsation. Colin tells Celia that he need to figure out the computers. also big thing Colin is back without the permission of Lena. It will be interesting to see what hes looking for and if he'll continue to sneak behind Lena's back.

Sam and Alice's Adventures into the Institute. Probaly the biggest development lore-wise was Sams and Alice investigating the ruins of the Magnus Institute. They don't find much (but I'm still am gonna talk about it for awhile) Alice mentions that there were weird carvings in the floor which she later equates to the worms on the ground. If you are a Archives listener hearing about worms in the archives starts seting off all kinds of alarms. This means in this universe the Jane Prentiss attack still happens, which is especcially iteresting because If I'm not mistaken in TMA the worm attack happened spesiffically to mark Jon with the corruption. Was Jon ever part of the institute? or if not Jon there must have been an archivist role in this Magnus Institute that would require Jane to attack it.

ERROR and the Tape Recorders so far in protocol we have been listening to the characters through either the computers or though their phones. But during the last few minutes we here the click of a tape recorder. and TMA fans around the world rejoiced. The magnus archives is entirley told through tape recordings and are a tool used by the web (spesifically the avatar Annabelle Cane) does this mean Annabelle made it to this universe? or it could also signal the presense of Jon (since the tape recorders are linked to him) Alice and Sam investigate the archivist office looking for a place for the key when the floor collapes and Sam drops the key. After some Sam and Alice banter, they leave but the recorder stays running we then hear the scraping sound and some shutterd breathing. This is when I highly suggest going through the transcript after listening to an episode becuase they specifically what were hearing and who is breathing.

I included the snippet from the transcript that pinpoints every not verbal sound we hear

water from the pit under the archives is disturbed

thud on wood then a rattle of a padlock

Key being dragged across the wood then fumbled into a lock that clicks open

trapdoor opens and ERROR imerges

ERROR takes 3 breaths

ERROR has been used before for redacting the roles played by Johnny, Alex and Tim (aka the voices of FR3-d1) during the cast anouncements for protocol. This makes me think that ERROR must be someone from the Archives universe my running theory is that it is a entity that houses Jon, Martin and Jonah's souls or consiounous. but It could literally be anyone. I'm also thinking ERROR has been locked in the tunnels under the archives (Mentioned in TMA)

And thats about Everything! plese let me know your thoughts or if you wanna correct me on any mistakes :)

Also I would love to know if you guys would prefer this style of post where I illustrate moments and scenes from each episode? it would probably delay when I'm able to post the breakdowns but I'd love to know if you guys perfer that format over the less illustrated one.

Just a heads up, this might be a MAJOR spoiler, considering this is a CASTING CALL for a role in TMAGP, so beware.

Anywho, I digged some into casting calls for TMAGP and, wouldn't you know it, we got one that sort of makes more sense after yesterday's episode:

Probably not somebody we knew, but we sure are in for the Magnusverse brand of sexy, evil women if this is the role Beth Eyre got

[lady-bee-holmes]

You know, I’m starting to think that the computer voices are a bit of a red herring. I don’t think Chester is actually Jon, or our Jon.

Instead, I’m thinking that [ERROR] is our Jon. I just relistened to a bit of the episode where it appears and the whispered voices in the background sound vaguely like Jon, plus that��s the first time we hear a tape recorder click.

Now, there is an avatar of some sort going around and pulling the final moments from people who clearly have been impacted by an Entity (whether this universe’s or the other’s), with one of those statements even mentioning a figure in an alley asking questions.

These are all ticking the Jon box for me.

#I know we all want him to be chester from the puter but #hear me out #what if chester IS this universe’s jon #that’s his be all end all #I’m thinking [error] is our jon #our wet cat of a man just more monster-y #oh please let it be so <3 #tmagp #tma #tmagp theory #the magnus archives #the magnus protocol #just a buzzing bee

[helpimstuckposting]

Anyway, is everyone else concerned Alice is the only one who ever receives a JMJ error? I am. I really am.

#tmagp #the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #I’m so curious wtf that means #we’ve had like five JMJ error episodes and it’s ALWAYS Alice’s computer #is it because she’s the only one who isn’t listening? #they can’t get a read on her because she’s not letting them???? #is that something???? #alice dyer

[griftersbone42]

here's my full TMAGP Archivist theory:

so I think that ERROR is the Archivist because it escaped the Institute and somehow followed Sam and Alice back to London (Alice thought someone was following her) and needed to feed on statements, which explains the two talking corpses (especially the one Alice found).

also the tape recorders have shown up twice. once was at the Institute (the first time we hear ERROR) and the second time was with the drowning victim. so I think ERROR was nearby and the tape recorders only appear in its presence to record it or statements taken from others.

#the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #also just a reminder that ERROR is a new character and not someone we've heard speak before #oh and maybe the experiments Sam was a part of were to find the next Archivist #samama khalid #alice dyer #I'm now convinced that ERROR was the Head Archivist when the Institute was destroyed #this isn't particularly coherent but I'm sticking to it

[gammija]

its them, the .JMJ Error

#for clarity's sake this is a joke. not a robust theory #i AM thinking about a proper theory but i cant quite tie up all the loose ends it creates #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #the magnus protocol #tmagp s1 #[ERROR] #new blorbo? #id in alt #or maybe it's this universes old Archivist #also was it just me or was there the sound of quiet overlapping voices... like tens of tapes running at once...

something something jon, martin, and jonah chillin in the puter but now they’re shimejis. is this anything

#i think they would b so cute and silly :33 #tiny cartoony jon sittin in the corner of the screen reading an incident report while martin climbs around an error message window #jonah’s there too i guess. i’m picking him up with the mouse and violently shaking him around #alice thinks they r so cute and plays with them while she’s procrastinating #don’t even get me started on colin. Dear Lord #tma #the magnus archives #tmagp #the magnus protocol #i need a tag for my tmaposting. god.

[rebeccasteventaylor]

I bet Alice knows perfectly well how to fix a jmj error. I bet she just used that as an excuse to talk to Gwen, and ask her if they were ever going to talk about the horrors. (Or anything else….)

I bet she was the same with Colin. I bet she wanted an excuse to talk to Colin about the horrors too.

In fact I bet jmj is just a prompt for ‘Alice! Ask the others about all the weird shit! TALK ABOUT THINGS. Just like we never did.’

"Would you like a seat?" Gerry asks over his shoulder as Sam follows him deeper into the apartment. "Only if it isn't a bother," Sam says despite the throbbing in his hip. "Oh, it's no problem at all. Let me just--" The young goth rushes ahead into some sort of studio, clearly expecting Sam to follow. Every spot in the room is either occupied with a painting, or painted on, or splattered, or filled with utensils, tools, and other stuff that is necessary for art. Gerry sweeps a pile of pencil sketches from a chair and offers it to Sam, who sits gratefully, eyes still wandering over the atelier in overwhelmed amazement. "I can make some tea?" Gerry offers. "Oh," Sam says with an awkward smile. "I'm more one for coffee." "Do you mind if I make one for myself, then?" "No, go ahead." The sounds of an electric kettle being filled and switched on reaches Sam, whose eyes fall onto the sketches. He leans a bit closer to get a better look. It's not very polite, to go snooping into the drawings of a potential friend, but he can't help himself. He's always been so damn curious. The first sketch shows a short, thin man with dark hair that is starting to go grey despite his young but tired face. His brown skin is covered in scars and his eyes are glowing. Sam blinks, and for a second he feels like the drawing blinks back at him. He quickly moves the sketch to the bottom of the stack and shakes his head. It's the sleep deprivation. He's not starting to see movement in traditional sketches. The next few sketches show the same man, over and over again, eyes blazing, mouth set in a thin line, exhaustion weighing down a face that could once have been called handsome. He's not the only one, though. There's a second man, tall and broad, with red hair and a dusting of freckles on his nose and cheeks. He's barely recognisable in the fog that surrounds him that gets thicker with every new sketch Sam discovers. The last one is that of a man who wouldn't have looked out of place in Pride and Prejudice (as written by Cassandra Austen), with a neatly pressed collar and a cravat, as well as jewellery in the form of eyes. His grey eyes are intense, piercing Sam through the page. Sam is about to put the sketches back when a piece of paper slips, and his heart stops. The woman on the paper is a detailed pencil drawing of Celia. It's almost scary how perfect that sketch catches her likeness. Surely Gerry would have needed more than one look at her to draw her so realistically? Sam fights the wave of jealousy that wants to overtake him. It's none of his business who Celia meets in her free time. There is only that one sketch of her, and as Sam finds the last page, he's a bit disappointed to discover that there is just two sentences scribbled in nearly illegible handwriting.

The maze is sharp on my mind. The angles cut me when I try to think.

They are underlined with so much force that the pencil nearly broke through the paper. In the kitchen, the kettle turns off, and Sam quickly places the pages back in order. "Gerry," he says when his host returns, mug of tea in hand, "who are these people you sketched?" Gerry glances over his shoulder, then shrugs. "Now that you say it...I have no idea. These are from a while ago. Why, did I accidentally draw someone you know?" He says it with a smile, like it's a joke between artists. Did I accidentally draw you? Sam's gaze drifts back over the man with the glowing eyes. "I don't know," he says softly. "I don't know."
