Something that really elevates the Not! Them’s creepiness level for me is what Gertrude says in “The Kind Mother.”

“I have destroyed the tape Ms. Cooper provided us as a precaution. I have no interest in attracting this thing’s attention.”

Gertrude Robinson is old women in a career where most people die young. She’s stopped multiple mass ritual’s and has survived a ritual herself when she was almost burned alive accidentally connecting herself to Agnes. She’s easily the toughest person in the series.

Yet, she has so little interest in attracting the Not! Them’s attention that she destroys knowledge just to stay under it’s radar. That’s not a small deal for someone attached to The Eye, or for someone who’s usually up for taking down a fear.

I think her reluctance speaks volumes for how dangerous The Stranger’s powers of replacement are. If it replaced someone in The Institute even Gertrude would have no way of knowing. And if it replaced her, then it would have free rein of The Archives.

Neither of those scenarios would be good and Gertrude understands that enough to turn a blind eye to the knowledge she’s given in the gift of a tape. That makes the Not! Them creature so much scarier for me, and it’s already a pretty horrifying concept.

# The Magnus Archive But It’s Just Piercings I Think Some Of The Character’s Would Have

Jon - Jon got his ears pierced in college to look cool, and then immediately regretted them and let them grow up. However, he did look really cool for a second there.

Martin - Martin doesn’t have any piercings and he doesn’t want any. He doesn’t have an issue with them or anything, it’s just that the thought of a needle going through his skin freaks him out a little.

Tim - Tim has a tongue piercing in Season 1. Then he has a tongue piercing and a bridge piercing in Season 3.

Sasha - Sasha doesn’t have a piercing yet, but if she did she’d want it in a unique spot like her wrist or her hip. Probably her wrist, but she could go for many places.

Melanie and Georgie - Melanie wanted a septum piercing her entire life but she wasn’t sure what her pain tolerance would be for that type of thing so she ended up bringing Georgie to her appointment for support. Melanie did get the septum piercing. Georgie somehow ended up walking out with a philtrum piercing

Basira - Basira has a small nostril piercing that’s kind of hard of notice but looks really good if you do.

Daisy - Daisy has canine bites that she wears in her off time because they make her look intimidating. She doesn’t wear them post coffin.

Peter - Peter has a bellybutton piercing as a consequence of losing a bet with Elias.

Jonah/Elias - Gauges. Jonah didn’t originally have piercings, but Elias did and the holes in his ears were so big that they didn’t shrink back to a normal size once Jonah took over. So, Jonah just embraced the look.

Gertrude - Gertrude had an eyebrow piercing when she first joined The Institute, but it grew up eventually as her focus started zeroing in on the fears and her personal style kind of fell to the side in it all.

Gerard - Gerard has snake bite piercings and a stacked lobe. He wants more but hasn’t gotten around to it yet.

Michael Shelley - Michael has a snug ear piercing, but he keeps it hidden by covering his ears with his hair. He worries that he’ll get in trouble at work for having it, (Even despite Elias’s ears) but Elias and Gertrude could care less as long as he’s doing his job.
