2024-10-24 16:45:04 +0000 UTCOh noooo. This whole time I was like, "You're not REALLY losing your humanity, Jon. All the avatars have to die first." Sooooo.... his heart stopped, huh. Hmm. Welp.

With a wailing shriek, the door opens, and the burning silhouette that stands within is ingrained upon the Archivist's racing mind. […] The exterminator looks to her, then to the Archivist, and it is not certain which he fears more. The Archivist, for his part, is hopelessly willing the dream to stop, but as she takes one scorched step after another, it is clear that he has no power to make it.” Mhmhm just another episode of magnus that I’m Completely Normal about.

2023-05-31 19:22:03 +0000 UTCI really love this episode, sometimes I listen to it when I can't sleep. Also, Elias getting gut punched by that cop is ecstasy. He is a terrible terrible person and I love him so much.

2018-09-26 18:12:47 +0000 UTCThat WAS AMAZING. Jon being lost in his dreams is horrifying and I feel that Peter Lukas is going to be infinitely more dangerous than Elias. I'm already bummed that we have to wait till January to find out what happens next.

2018-09-26 17:30:49 +0000 UTCI think it’s because he acts nicer. It’s the nice people you have to watch out for.

2018-09-26 16:26:15 +0000 UTCBrilliant ending to this season. Honestly, why do I feel Peter Lukas is goung to be more dangerous than Elias ever was.

2018-09-26 14:42:37 +0000 UTCBrilliant, can't wait for next season's hijinks. Have a good break RQ!
Maz Dixon
2018-09-26 05:31:21 +0000 UTCWell that was honestly one of the most terrifying and upsetting episodes yet. Excellent job on the voice acting, and it was both wonderful and terrible to finally get some clarity on the dream stuff and more info on Beholding. I'm relieved that Martin survived, though I'll honestly miss Elias dreadfully. Good thing I already adored Peter Lukas, hmm? I'm already so excited for January I can barely stand it!

2018-09-26 05:03:03 +0000 UTCBrilliant! Gripping (literally - I’ve got bruises on my arms) The visual of the Eye, all the other statements coming back, MARTIN. This was a seriously fantastic season and a perfect close-out. Damn

2018-09-26 03:45:21 +0000 UTCSo, content warning: pretty much everything? Very enjoyable (yeah, I'm weird, I know ) episode. Closed off S3 nicely with enough threads left to make January a long way away...

2018-09-26 00:46:01 +0000 UTCJanuary??? Aaaarrgghh. Lol. That is simply my impatience, as rude as it is. Enjoy the break, Rusty Crew. Terrific season, spectacular job, and undying respect to you all. Thank you.

2018-09-25 23:37:33 +0000 UTCThe first third of this was terrifying, the second third satisfying, and the last third unnerving. I can't wait for season 4.
