After the most recent episode of protocol where Henrich wanted to learn about computer games to scare kids more effectively it got me thinking, is Herobrine the Minecraft creepypasta canon to the magnus verse like just as an entity??? Sorry that sounds so silly but the idea of game creepypasta being a real is so interesting to me so thought I'd ask!
Huh wasn’t aware of Herobrine as a thing. (Just did a cursory Google).
It certainly compatible with Protocol although if someone pitched it my first response would be “not creepy enough.”
I suspect @jonnywaistcoat’s response would be “too dry. Needs wet.”
Fun fact: I actually played minecraft’s beta before it even had a surface. I found that quite existentially creepy.
hi! thank you for everything you do :)
question: i translate the magnus archives as a passion project and wanted to ask: can i use my translations in my portfolio? or is it violating the license?
You’re welcome!
I get these questions a lot so just as a reminder, if you ever have questions about our licensing etc. direct them to Mail@rustyquill.com and they can help.

There’s other tidbits but off the top of my head that’s the important bit. As always though, please direct legal and company questions like this to Rusty Quill rather than me. Just answering here since its a good example to set and you asked very politely.
Hello,
I am embroidering a pair of jeans because I want to and I needed to repair them, I’d like to add a quote from the Magnus archives, any recommendations (preferably without swears since I volunteer at girlguiding and I don’t want to be kicked out because a 7 year old learns the word fuck from my trousers)
- “Ceasless Watcher, turn your gaze upon this wretched thing”
- "I refuse to become another goddamn mystery.“
- "I spy with my little eye… Literally everything.”
- “the sky… it’s looking back”
- “I have done my duty, and none may ask more of me. I am proud of the work we have done, and it has been an honour to do it alongside you.“
- “I could be on drugs!”
- "As I was going up the stair
I met a man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
Oh how I wish he’d go away - "I try to think of life as a pleasant holiday from non-existence”
Hello! I just finished listening to MAG 186 - Quiet for the first time, and I had a question about the production of it.
Did you record the lines for both Martins in one go (switching off characters), or did you record them separately and then edit them together?
Been asked this a few times so to clarify:
I recorded both Martin’s together bouncing back and forth between them.
But I did multiple takes to choose between.
Solo duologs is an odd skill I picked up from teaching Improv back in the day.
hi hi! so i watched a video on youtube last night and i was juuuuuust wondering- simon fairchild isnt named after the plane that crashed in the andes mountains… is he? crazy coincidence or was that on purpose?
Technically an @jonnywaistcoat question so my word is not gospel but I feel safe in guessing “no he isn’t named after an airline disaster that would be ludicrous.”
Hello Mr Bossman, will cosplays be welcome at the Hilltop Live Show?
Hey, this is another question that should really be addressed to mail@rustyquill.com since its about a company stance, that said I can give a personal take that does NOT constitute a formal reply:
“within reason”
This is theatre NOT cinema, and there are some things I could see being an issue:
1) Avoid bulky stuff that will get in the way. British Theatre seating does not leave much elbow room.
2) Avoid distracting stuff, it’s a theatre show so drawing focus is gonna distract the performers and the audience
3) Avoid stuff that will interfere with the show. No lights, no sounds, no shiny bits, no moving parts,
4) Avoid heavy, hot and impractical clothes. You’re gonna be sat quietly in a crowd for hours.
TLDR: I don’t personally have any moral objections or anything but just be respectful of cast, crew and audience. Its a theatre show after all, not a convention.
P.S. That does not mean I am saying you need to wear formal wear! Don’t get me wrong, if you want to, please feel free but it is not a requirement or anything!
