TMAGP 8 SPOILERS

TMAGP 8 SPOILERS

GERRY AND GERTRUDE.

GERRY. AND. GEE GEE.

Gerry sounds so happy I-

I’M GONNA CRY.

also this Gwen chick has Elias vibes. can’t pinpoint why, maybe it’s the voice of bureaucratic superiority and self importance.

Sam and Alice are entirely doomed by the narrative, aren’t they??

(haven’t finished TMAGP yet)

TMAGP 20 SPOILERS

once again: what the fuck is up with Celia???

first this:

“catastrophic, world-endingly bad” is WAY too specific to be coincidence. and just how did she find this info?? tmagp and Sam’s own research gives the impression that The Magnus Institute is very difficult to find info on.

and then this at the end of the episode:

the way Ink5oul emphasizes senior. i had to go back and relisten to it because at first, at least to me, it sounded like they said Celia.

put it in that context and you get “…someone a bit more Celia next time. Someone who actually knows that they’re talking about.”

ik that’s a bit of a stretch and i could be reading into things, but maybe it was intentional. bc Celia does seems to know a lot more than she’s letting on…

TMA: “Like colors, but if colors hated me.”

TMAGP: “Like colors, but if colors hated me. And if they didn’t know what color they are. And also didn’t know what colors are. But the colors definitely still hate me.”

idk if this is accurate cause i only just finished TMAGP 8 but that’s the vibe im getting.

VAGUE TMAGP SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT

cause ik The Fears technically aren’t supposed to exist in this world, but it’s blatantly obvious that they do, at least to a certain extent.

but they seem to be very muddled together. in TMA, it was generally pretty clear cut which statement belonged to which Fear and in the few statements where they would overlap, it usually wasn’t more than 2 Fears cooperating at once.

but in TMAGP, it’s almost like there’s multiple Fears trying to coexist in one case file and the lines between them are very blurred together. like they aren’t as… refined as they were in TMA. (probably due to The Banishing as i’m calling it imo.)

in TMA, they were 14 dollops of different colored paint neatly organized on a paint palette and would occasionally be mixed together to obtain a certain hue, while still being recognizable.

in TMAGP, these 14 dollops of different colored paint have all been swirled and mixed together so much that the original colors used are just barely distinguishable.

and the palette is cracked. and decaying. and staining your hand that tarnished-cheap-metal-green even thought the palette is wooden.

and the colors still hate you.

TMAGP THEORY (spoilers for tmagp 17)

okay so, TMAGP 17: Saved Copy was, obviously, weird.

this theory may be a biiit out there but i’m sticking with it.

first of all, this entire case reeks of some amalgamation of The Web and The Stranger. if The Web and The Stranger (as we know them) even exist anymore.

but this whole thing starts off with another tease at whatever The Magnus Institute is in this world, so that’s already damning enough.

but OG Darrien (the statement giver) says he lost consciousness in a “shopping centre” after exiting an odd, meditative state. specifically, a shopping centre near the “Magnus Institute Outreach Centre.” once again, that’s already damning. but when he said “shopping centre”, my first thought was the Hilltop Centre mentioned in TMAGP 7: Give and Take.

and i’m assuming this is a shopping centre near the infamous Hilltop House from TMA. Ya know, an epicenter for The Web. especially given that OG Darrien lost consciousness near a Magnus Institute Outreach Centre, and we know The OG Magnus Institute was heavily influenced/controlled by The Web. also, remember when Sam mentioned in TMAGP 10: Saturday Night that he had weird memories from The Magnus Institute, but no context… almost as if he couldn’t properly remember the context… as if his memories were, shall we say, manipulated??

and again in TMAGP 8: Running on Empty, Gerry says he can barely remember any of his time as a “gifted kid” with The Magnus Institute.

so obviously there’s still a lot of Web influence going on.

and then OG Darrien wakes up with withered arms and ends up at Hartcourt House (which immediately made me think of Hilltop House) and meets the Other Darrien.

he later goes on to finish his statement, mentioning that “your world and mine are pretty similar.” your world and mine. aka confirmation that he did enter another work and he was now aware of it.

and he did so right after passing out in Hilltop Centre.

i think the crack in reality or portal or whatever you want to call it from the basement of Hilltop House in TMA is still open.

we never really got to see how Georgie, Melanie, and Basira handled things after MAG 200 after all, just that brief few moments at the very end. we don’t know if they ever sealed up that crack or not. or if they even remember it, given the heavy Web influence in both shows.

listen, all i’m saying is that the crack/portal is definitely still active and that The Web is up to something again, and it involves The Magnus Institute again.
