It’s my personal head canon that entrapta has genetically fucked up ankles and that’s why she uses her hair so often (she’s just like me fr 😮💨😮💨)
I cannot express how much I love drawing side profiles on my school work, it brings me so much joy

Get on facebook and start reposting things you want her to see (or delete Facebook altogether and tell her Oopsie it’s down for life)

Letting everyone know that free therapy IS available depending on where you are/if you qualify. I am BEGGING people to look online, just search keywords with your location till you find something. “Free income therapy (city/state)” works wonders. And don’t be afraid to reach out to local therapists offices, email them, call them, do whatever you can. Yes, therapy should be more accessible, but until that happens you have to really look for it.
You know that post about drawing characters who die with scars from the way they died? Arthur's kinda already got that several times over by now, but after this latest death, is he just gonna like, have a whole network of scars tracing between every limb and beyond, like a patchwork quilt
I almost completely agree with this, however I think Jon could, in fact, survive nightvale. I think that it also depends on WHEN he would have been transported there (for whatever reason) any time after atound season two he starts to actually go out and get statements, nightvale is quite literally the perfect place for Jonathan sims to be. It’s like an endless buffet of people just casually talking about the horrors that be, and Jonathan if swapped with Cecil and therefore with his job, gets paid to talk about it. That’s his whole thing. He gets fed, and gets to document everything that happens. Nightvale would be Jonathan sim’s paradise. If you got him at the beginning of season one or even before he’d be fucked for sure.
OKAY I AM TALKING NOW
I have seen “Jon could not survive Welcome to Night Vale but Cecil could survive TMA” and yeah. Sure. But also no I don’t think so
spoilers for some of WTNV and TMA
it’s not about curiosity, it’s where the main power or fear comes from
Cecil thrives on knowing someone, all of Night Vale, is listening. He’s a radio host. You don’t host radio expecting nobody to hear.
The statements up until the end of s4 and i to s5 weren’t meant to be heard, that wasn’t why Jon (and the others) recorded them. Not originally. Sure, they fed the Watcher yada yada, but that wasn’t the intent until Jon started -actively seeking out statements-. The reading them out loud in season five, searching for information, Asking people for their stories. It was for his curiosity. And yes, he did record stuff so he wouldn’t “become another goddamn mystery” but he never expected anyone to listen to them. Very rarely does anyone plan to die in some obscure way. The tapes were a backup plan, a ‘just in case’. Had all been normal and all gone well, the tapes he made would have ended in a drawer somewhere.
So now we swap it. Jon is in the Night Vale radio station. He doesn’t know what to do, he certainly can’t do his job in the middle of the desert in a town in america but Boy, there sure are weird things happening. So he goes out, he fights the weird stuff, and it kills him, sending him to obscurity just as he feared.
But Cecil? He’s fucked. The Glow Cloud and the angels and Koshekh and his weird little home town have NOTHING on the fears. And worst of all, nobody is listening. They can’t call in, they can’t message him online, he can’t talk to his town about it. That’s his Whole Thing. That would drive him mad. Even as far as I am maybe 60 episodes in, I’ve heard younger him dreaming of being on the radio, dreaming of being heard. So suddenly, when all he has is a tape recorder and a statement and some weird stuff to investigate, it would slowly drive him to the brink of his sanity knowing nobody is listening. Nobody cares. Not the Faceless old Woman, not the man in the tan jacket, not even Steve Carlsberg, nobody tangible that he knows about is listening. Let’s be honest, even the Eye probably wouldn’t be that interested in him, he’s not even made for reading the statements.
anyways that’s my TED talk feel free to criticize this or add on
Gwen babygirl I would do anything for you
Oh man you guys wont believe this but-
I’m gonna listen to episode 52 of malevolent! Really hope nothing bad happens to that guy Arthur again!
If you ask me what my favorite part about the magnus archives is I would say it’s the characterization. Not a single character is one dimensional. Martin, the lighthearted almost comedic relief character, the guy who had a crush on his boss and brought the guy tea like every day was the most pragmatic character in the end. He escaped prentiss and prepared for her attack, outsmarted Peter Lucas, got HIMSELF out of the lonely, and he always, without fail, knew the harsh reality of every situation. Jonathan sims aka the archivist is shown to be a grumpy, gloomy, and all around skeptical person, but his actions don’t reflect that. He desperately digs for answers, refuses to ask himself questions before running into dangerous situations, and he’s such a hopeless romantic. The man with every fact or hard truth in the book likes to imagine he might be good.
It’s the same in the magnus protocol
Alice is funny and carefree, she jokes and talks without thinking, she likes to tell people they are doomed, likes to joke about the bleakness of life, but it’s so obvious she believes in something brighter. Or she at least believes in loving the people around you to the point where at her lowest she manages to pick herself up by the boot straps and LEARN. Her friends are dead or gone and all she can think about is finding out how to fix it, forward motion. Celia is complex specifically in her feelings. She doesn’t seem to regret throwing Sam to the wolves necessarily, but she’s scared for him, guilty. Her guilt eats her alive even if she would have done the same thing again, for her baby, for her life. Gwen is interesting because through every single one of her arrogant, snobby, “I’m better than you”s, she never ever believes it. She might think she’s better, might reach for power, claw her way to the top, but does she ever actually think she’s better? Would she ever have the confidence in herself to ask for help, she is stuck in a limbo state where she wants to be separate from everyone but can’t help but to seek their company, even when it’s clear she isn’t even welcome.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk, none of this makes any sense, I’m gonna fall asleep now.
