Just Finished MAG158 And Out Of EVERY Manipulator I Was Expecting This Season: Elias, Peter, Maybe Even

just finished MAG158 and out of EVERY manipulator i was expecting this season: Elias, Peter, maybe even Jon, MARTIN K BLACKWOOD WAS NOT ONE OF THEM BUT OH MY STARS DO I LOVE HIM FOR IT?! ABSOLUTELY ICON?!

also SO MUCH JUST HAPPENED?! NOT SASHA?! DAISY?! MARTIN TALKING ABOUT JON?! ELIAS AND JONAH?! I-

i’m in tears, my heart has been ripped out of my chest.

“If you do so, you are almost certainly not coming back. To go into The Lonely willingly is as good as death.” “How do I do it?” OUCH?!

this is vaguely ominous but will do 🫡

POSSIBLE TMA SPOILERS

currently on MAG 138: The Architecture of Fear tn and i’m totally spitballing here.

Okay so The Watcher’s Crown ritual has been bugging me lately, I couldn’t figure out what exactly it was.

And then I started thinking about Jon’s scars.

the scalpel wound from Melanie - The Slaughter

the knife wound from Daisy - The Hunt

the worm burrow holes from Prentiss - The Corruption

the burn in his hand from Jude Perry - The Desolation

the ribs he let Jared Hopworth take - The Flesh

the five stitches he needed after Michael stabbed him - The Spiral

add on when he was just free falling bc of Mike Crew which had to leave some kind of damage, even if it’s not physical - The Vast

and the fact he’s the avatar for The Beholding - The Eye

plus his emotional trauma from A Guest for Mr. Spider - The Web

that’s 8 out of the 14 entities. he’s collecting scars/traumas from each of them. one could even say he’s collecting a jewel for each of them…

That has to be The Watcher’s Crown, he has to have first-hand encounters with each of them or something like that to complete his ritual.

AND I BET THAT’S WHY MARTIN IS SUDDENLY SO INVOLVED WITH PETER LUKAS AND THE LONELY WAIT A DMAN SECOND YALL-

i’ve been reading TMA fics and i am pointedly ignoring the concerning amount of Time-Travel Fix-Its.

i cannot read, i do not see.

what was it Jon said? “There is nothing in the world more reassuring than ignorance…”?

my dear Archivist, you’re so right, i’m gonna remain blissful and willfully ignorant until i’m forced to face… that

if i did makeup looks for each of The Fears, would that be something y’all want to see??

i am not usually one to repost my tweets and i dont know if tumblr is into chappell roan but i thought this needed sharing (ALSO since i originally drafted this post i went to sleep and woke up with this tweet having over 1000 likes)
