Remember that one time that Gerry wore a Hawaiian shirt?? He stol that from his bf
Mike dyes Gerry's hair and does a shit job but they both love it anyway<3
Anyway y'all are sleeping on this iconic couple and I'll take that to my grave
I just remembered it’s my blog and I can post whatever I want.
A list of archivists that gets less and less canon as it goes on
...I've gotten into The Magnus Archives. Enjoy the silly art I've made under the cut. I like this thing a normal amount I assure you.
Alternative Idea;
Heads of Institutes/Key Eye Avatars: Owls
Archivists/Assistants: Moths
Unaffiliated: Cats..? (Idk I read cats can represent curiosity), Ravens..? (Odin's key bird that represents insight)
Also Alternate Idea;
CatMoth John. I have no reason why in particular but it's funny to me.
Further, more like canonical idea;
Its a subconscious determination and not so much a role decided.
John chose a moth because (insert Points for MothJohn regarding episodes).
Jonah probably would have picked an owl because anything vaguely insinuating a gods involvement sounds about right to him.
If Gerry were alive and had a choice/wanted to I see him picking a Raven probably. Or an Owl. Or nothing.
Rosie as a cat feels pretty cute but realistically I think she'd be a moth just cause of her feelings on being trapped by Elias/Jonah
Albert Von Closen I don't care much for your monster form so I won't bother
Serapeum Archivist should be a Sphinx or an Owl Harpy because of how corrupted they are. Moth would work but uh... idk I like the Serapeum Archivist too much.
Gertrude is stuck as a moth and she'd hate it (reasonably I see her refusing a monster form)
Amy Patel you're an Owl now because of your w a t c h i n g
Why MothJohn when OwlJohn?
Okay so like being serious here; what's with everyone assigning Monster Johnathan Sims into being a Moth? Why can't he be an owl?
This has bugged me an inordinate amount and in true Eye Lady fashion, I'm gonna try to prove my propaganda ideation has merit (and also unravel this bloody mess).
--------------------------------------
Please help me unravel this with your own theories/responses/knowledge this is critical for my AO3 Magnus x (OwnSeries) AU
--------------------------------------
Points for OwlJohn:
Owl symbolism in the Magnus Institute's logo
Owls (mainly the Little Owl) are associated with the Greek Goddess Athena (Goddess of Wisdom, Warfare and Handicrafts), and the Eye is a Wisdom-based Entity fragment.
Being an Owl (Athena) puts them at odds with Spider (Arachne), thus being reflective of the Eye (Watching) and Web (Acting) mindsets.
Harpy John! Like, hello???? Bird wings??? Being a big floofy owl creature like Eda Clawthorne from The Owl House????
Owls blink super quickly so like, metaphor for not being able to close eyes?
Points for MothJohn (so far)
Mentions of a 'chrysalis' in MAG 162
Death's-head Hawkmoths are apparently tied to supernatural/evil things?????? [Source: Wikipedia..? (i cant remember)]
Moths apparently represent transformation and rebirth??? [Source: some website labelled the "Tarrant Country College" idk i took a cursory glance]

Moths can have eyes on their wings to scare off predators (Courtesy of @nonbinarytoast)
If I've missed anything, please tell me because I'm genuinely curious for the sake of the Magnus-(Own Series) AU I'm cooking on AO3.
Might even try cooking a MothJohn vs OwlJohn propo image, or use one of my Archivist OCs for the Magnus-(OwnSeries) AU. Or both. Or all three.
(Also yes I know about Sphinx!Jonn and Dragon!John variations but there's no. bloody. owls.)
Gerry art!!
I, don’t know if I’m proud of this but I spent too much time on it so it gets to be posted! Uh- I don’t talk about him much (don’t talk about TMA too much on here anyway) but Gerry is one of my favorites!! Even if he’s like super dead. Anyways- I got really particular about the ‘he has eye tattoos on all of his joints’ and that includes the stuff like your jaw joint, or the three(?) joints in your like collarbone area (how you like can fold in on yourself I think-?) so he got his silly little eyes.
That’s it- might edit this if I chose to go back and make the background darker because the pale yellow is messing with me for some reason-
So uhhh, here's some of my TMA playlists for all who are curious:
That one is the playlist for the podcast in general
That one's the Jon playlist
This one here is the good ol Martin Kartin Blackwood playlist (fun fact: this is the playlist I play while I sleep)
There's the good ol JonMartin playlist
And finally last but not least, my Gerry playlist (which is basically just a bunch of goth songs lmao)
If I make anymore later, I'll add them on as well!!
I still haven't finished season three.
