okay I’ve been seeing these around and I wanted to do one for the TMA cast. here’s a random wheel (link) featuring every character I can remember with a speaking role + a couple extras who don’t speak but are still important to the plot or that I thought would be funny
for the tma character you got above, fuck marry or kill. no nuance
the web probably thought to itself “great, now that the chosen one has reached adulthood, I can pass him off to this nearly-omniscient supervillain who has a vested interest in getting him all his marks, that’s so much less work for me” and then elias would have plans like “hmm, I need to arrange an end mark, just killing him should work, right?” or “well, the coffin exists, so it’ll probably turn up and he’ll probably just throw himself in” or “I’m putting all my faith in jared hopworth’s ability to correctly interpret and respond to my cryptic anonymous letters.”
ive been listening to q&a and the second i had a thought “hmm i wanna add some text here” johnny instantly screamed in my ears TELL ME YOUR STORY and i was like wow okay no need to be so harsh man (i didn’t tell him my story)
magnus podcasts are just “what if we put together a bunch of people who really need human connection and are fundamentally really similar and deeply care about each other then make it so none of them ever communicate”
he’s essentially a living optic nerve. the tower is there to direct and stabilize the connection held in the pupil. when he’s in the panopticon he serves as both the center of the tether to reality and the closest thing the eye has to a mind.
he can fly, but as pupil, he isn’t affected by gravity so his wings and legs are vestigial. the furthest he can reach with his body is the floor of that room.
the archivists serve as a defense system because jon is basically a vital organ and fairly physically vulnerable. they’re very fast and can fly short distances but usually just cling to walls and crawl. they have about the same level of sentience as beholding itself (not much). jon can maneuver them as external limbs but when he isn’t, they kind of just run on eye-autopilot.
