OK So Haven't Got There But I Think I'm Wrong But We'll See

OK so haven't got there but I think I'm wrong but we'll see

John calling himself The Archivist instead of head archivist of the Magnus institute because he has accepted the fact that he Is The Archivist above else??????

Sad. Soul crushing. He's The Archivist. He's not even fully human anymore

Also him having more powers + the fact that they explicitly mention the eye hasn't had an attempt at a ritual like the others... Much to think about.

Jujana don't you dare read this, it involves very BIG spoilers about Merlin's last ep and I know you don't care about spoilers, but I do, and I want you to experience as much of the show as spoiler free as you can. Love ya.

Anyways

Shoutout to Merlin who sacrificed everything he had and everything he was not only to keep Arthur alive but to keep him as happy as possible and then every choice he made led to Arthur's untimely demise, leaving the profecy unfulfilled and all of his sacrifice basically amounting to nothing. He's technically still roaming the earth in the story babe I hope you got some closure.

Also this is why I read fanfics.

When I say I'm IN LOVE with her new costume I mean it

WANDA / SCARLET WITCH - EPISODE 9 FINAL

I mean the theory's still strong, it's still not supper meta yet and I think that would make sense.

We haven't seen yet.

Also when John went to the buried he needed an anchor and I thought "Well, well, well, maybe they pull a Rick Riordan and it ends up being Martin" and no, it was a rib. Which was disappointing, up until Martin put all of the tape recorders and basically called him and amplified his powers I'm- Just wanted to say that.

how marvel fans saw the wandavision plot:

how marvel wrote the wandavision plot:

Okay so this mAy be bullshit BUT

What if we really are part of the eye. Not in this universe. In that one. And in a weird meta way RustyQuill IS that universe's eye. And the eye ritual won in the end and their reality became Just a work of fiction (something for everyone to see).

And Jonathan Simms becomes Johnny Simms. And everyone else Becomes thsi version of themselves.

And we, as watchers, just FEED this whole experience.

Okay so I thought of this a bit more. It's not that RustyQuill as a group of people is the eye (which they would be) but rather John himself becomes the eye (being the author he Knows everything in the way the eye would). That would mean four things if my theory is to make sense.

1) He becomes an avatar for the eye. (Which he is on his way to, in the episode I'm at).

2) He becomes THE avatar for the eye. Just, the one most connected to it. Which being honest, I would see him becoming.

Now this is where it all goes downhill and the reason I don't like my theory anymore.

3) He turns. To be The Eye(tm) he would probably have to go and make one of the rituals like The Unknowning. This would make him the big powerful bad guy, probably in season 5? (I think that's where it ends?)

And then, lastly,

4) He wins. The rest that try and stop him all fail. He manages to do the ritual. Their world becomes pure knowledge, it's not something that happened anymore is just theoretical (though I would argue in the context that wouldn't make it any less real), John becomes This John. The rest become their here selves. And then that's that.

Look. It would be a story that's for sure.

This man slowly loosing touch with all that makes him human. Another story in madness.

It wouldn't be bad. It would be good I think. It would have gave Tim all the more reason to hate us, we powered this. We summon the tape recorders. We have an effect on their world. But the thing is, if this were the direction the story goes, it just means it is inevitable. There was no stopping it. Since the beginning it was already done. We, the audience, were witnesing a paradox, by listening we gave it power enough for John to do the ritual, but we would have never listened to it if THIS John hadn't written it yet.

It could be true. I'm not saying it should be or that I would like it to be. I think that for as much as I've been calling TMA "meta" it has never really been meta has it?? The outside world has no effect on it, apart of Tim hating us deeply. I mean maybe I'm confusing the definition of meta but there is no awareness. There's a freaking AMAZING storyline and even BETTER world building. There just isn't that... I don't know. Participation? Involvement? Self-awareness? It Feels like something is missing and that something is us.

I just lowkey hope it doesn't come to that.

(fiy this was made the day after I listened to 121 and I haven't gotten much into 122)

(just so you know if in like, 134 this all gets debunked or something)

I'm on season three but like

Are we, as listeners, claimed by the eye too? Supposedly? Like we hear everything in the tapes like Elias

Like, in the universe of the podcast

NO. I'M NOT GOING TO TAG IT TUMBLRS GONNA REALISE I LIKE TMA AND SPOIL ME WHATEVER HAPPENS IN 192
