annabelle–cane:

I have no idea who said this or when, but I remember someone in the last like year or so asking when the first time jon used his compulsion powers was, and I am now 100% convinced it was in mag 61 with daisy:

Text reading, "Archivist: Right. Thank you. Um… are you quite all right? / Daisy: [angry] No. I never told that story to anyone except my old sergeant. / Archivist: I’m… not sure, I, er, uh – / Daisy: I should go. / Archivist: Yes, of course, I’ll see you out. Uh, there is one other thing – I’ve been meaning to ask Basira, but you might know better – / Daisy: I’m done. / Archivist: Oh – yes, it’s just, j– [quickly] do you know anything about vampires? / Daisy: Yeah."ALT

she was clearly averse to talking any more, but once he started asking direct questions she gave long, complete answers. there was no static with it, but I think I might put that down to not being very far along in the archivist becoming process, you need to have read statements for x number of hours before you’re inhuman enough that technology reacts weirdly to you.
