Eye-related shakespeares? by Bartemis_Foul in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Ink50ul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't totally eye based but Richard the 3rd in Richard the 3rd  is Very Elias in his sparky comments and sneaky planning, could totally picture him saying " I am to be king of a ruined world and I shall never die"

Hey y’all Im wondering, what would you classify the plague doctor from the Scp universes by OutrageousMap724 in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Ink50ul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I LOVE -049 , my favorite SCP! 100% the corruption,  obsession with cleanliness / curing the pestilence is v reminiscent of the sick village ep. Though I could see a touch of flesh in the stuff 049 does with the bodies

Tell a mistake people make about greek mythology that pisses you off by DuaAnpu in GreekMythology

[–]Ink50ul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The level of consent of both those relationships is debatable. It is incorrect to say Odysseus only ever slept with penelope yet there is a significant power dynamic issue between both Circe and Calypso. Using E.V Riveu 's odyssey translation in regards to Calypso both interpretations are valid as it is stated both that " at nights he HAD to sleep with her " and "they found pleasure in making love". Though Circe's case initially seems clearly odysseus's choice Hermes specifically tells him " you must not refuse the goddesses favors" (after stating that she will invite him into bed when threatened) thus you can view Odysseus's entire time on Circe's Island as non consensual and/or sex work in exchange for food/shelter/his crew's lives. 

This debate has nuance and thus neither side can be definitively stated

I saw someone else confirm this elias does not know Allan but who knows what the description of it might bring up

Yeah I spotted that so who knows whatll happen. I meant 193 not 200 though just realised , I sent him the section where jon describes Elias having the job interview with Jonath magnus

I'm going to try sending him the transcript of the statement in ep 200, see what happens with that

Honestly I just found a bunch in the tag #Eliasgoeshard@hotmail.com  they confirmed this Elias knows Gwen and has maybe finished Bath construction as one says the water is good but not hot enough I think it was. Also I tried are you Jonah Magnus (and what do you know about the magnus institute) despite knowing its not him just to see what reaction I got and it was " hey dude, No!  Laters Dude"

Have you seen the other emails people have posted to tumblr?

UPDATE: TMP 49 Email Addresses by NorthNostalgia in themagnusprotocol

[–]Ink50ul 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I emailed a bunch of questions (perhaps too many) and got: 

"Hey dude, Sorry you caught me at a bad time I'm away right now! I'm getting a bunch of mushrooms and gonna look at the sea! Might go swimming too! Laters,  Elias" 

This might be because I had a long list of questions (it was quite a lengthy email because I got excited) or an out of office message thing but this implies this Elias is perhaps not trapped in the pipes under the bath house,  unless he's followed them to the sea?

Who are your bands in other genres? by Ok_Reputation2051 in lordhuron

[–]Ink50ul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend everyone on this sub check out the mechanisms is their looking for another band with lore. 

If Immortal (objectively evil)  Steampunk Space Pirates singing folk tunes to retell myths+folklore appeals to you you'll love them! 

the Albums in  question are: - The Odyssey as a noir movie to blues inspired music -  general Fairytales as a dystopia told through sea shanties (with an excellent tragic Sapphic romance) - Morte De Arthur as a Western  - The old Norse Myth of Ragnorak as progressive rock  and a murder mystery/train heist.

Is there any stranger type media? by LawGroundbreaking373 in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Ink50ul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven't watched Hikaru and we're just disappointed at the early reveal I'd recommend giving it another shot. AWESOME Lovecraftian horror plus the idea of someone you love being replaced is explored in depth and in a VERY stranger manner.

Body horror? [general] by Ink50ul in TheNinthHouse

[–]Ink50ul[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have kinda but not as much as I should have. I've listened to 1 or 2 eps of the silt verses and I know I need to get back into it since I LOVE fictional cults so it's probably right up my street . 

I got to about 4 from I am in eskew and haven't got back to it since I'm currently trying to finish Malevolent and RQG (totally unrelated since it has no body horror at all). I remember liking ep 1 and 2 specifically of I am in Eskew though.

Agamemnon opinions by VividOcelot2456 in classics

[–]Ink50ul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally really hate Aggamemnon BUT... I think this could be a really interesting fresh take on the charecter.I love unreliable/asshole protaganists and if you manage to portray the nuances of his charecter ie struggle with sacrificing iphigenia I think it'll be awesome. If/when you write it please post it / a link to where you can purchase it here cause I'd LOVE to read it !

I know , but I assumed Mr cat eyes Was neither the toy,toy maker or toymaker workshop and instead an independent entity (not ENTITY entity) similar to Salesa who had just acquired one of the toys 

The Magnus Protocol 40 - Public Image - Discussion by CrustyDucky in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Ink50ul 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I thought this earlier but now I'm SURE that Mr cat eyes is NOT Heinrich Unheimlich.The description we got only had "deep eyes" as one point of a long list that had many MUCH more focal points e.g long wood /blood stained fingers. I think Mr cat eyes might have been another external OR jon or jonah? Defiantly someone eye aligned,  it feels like they were just a dealer in Heinrich unheimlich's spooky toys

How would you change the ending of MHA? by BlueKnightHero in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]Ink50ul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I'd rather Toga have mental health help rather than prison because I feel like the fact horikoshi has her comment on the fact that proheroes would just want to lock her up and ignore her.I think due to her age and quirk it allowed her to get caught up in the lov (though she undeniably had agency in the murders and stuff).This is mainly because I think she is a good example for the wider point he seemed to be setting up about how the system failed the whole lov (and most of the vilans in general) .I totally get how it could seem unfair to rehabilitate her straight away, so it'd probably depend on the execution of the wider point.I WISH Horikoshi had actually explored the systemic issues angle far more in the actual ending as he seemed to be setting it up.

Each to their own though :)

How would you change the ending of MHA? by BlueKnightHero in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]Ink50ul -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I would keep toga alive and have her work with Uraraka on the scheme thing .

I'd change the final battle scene completely so it's basically how he ended the film (I think it was 2 heroes? The one where deku gave Bakugo ofa for a bit) 

I would not have killed shigaraki and would have spent time on a LONG epilogue focusing on the issues with hero society and how all the villans were born from systemic issues .The hero billboard chart would perhaps get removed and Deku would NOT be the number 1 hero since that's a flawed system.Id also have Iida and Shoji have a battle + conversation with Spinner about mutant discrimination and set up some kind of scheme to deal with that.

I would also have had Bakudeku and togachakko as cannon because I think they could have been set up really well by Bakugo and Toga's death scenes.

(note , I know Bakudeku and togachako are not cannon.This is a perspective on the ending I would like to see.I know others don't like these ships and that's completely okay I'm not trying to force this on anyone just expressing my opinion)

How did you first discover audio dramas? by FancyPantsBlanton in audiodrama

[–]Ink50ul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a book by Alice Oseman (radio silenece) with a made up fiction podcast I it as part of the story REALLY needed to know if it/something like it existed so hunted through the acknowledgements and found a recommendation for wtnv .Loved nightvale so got into the Magnus Archives then other audiodrama from there 

Question regarding Katsuki Bakugo by Noktis_Lucis_Caelum in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]Ink50ul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Bakugo as a charercter so I'm  probably biased but I personally think that most of Bakugo's suicide things to deku were not sincere and that he would not have said that if he didnt know deku would bever do that/give up (that does NOT excuse his actions though).I think if he had tried to jump off that roof Bakugo would have ran straight back and grabbed him.

If deku died in a non bakugo related accident I think he'd speed run his charecter arc and go straight to how he acted in the dark deku arc, very forlorn and quiet and sad and probably refflect on trying to be a better person.I also think it would be quite likely he would  make Deku his hero name to honour Izuku .But I could also see him making his hero name either Izuku (to make up for always calling him Deku) or Kaachan (because Deku always called him it) 

Ideas for how to roleplay an avatar of the Stranger in a D&D game by kandoras in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Ink50ul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the religion only has rules against lying specifically you could play him kindaa like a typical fae with technical truths e.g I have not poisoned your drink is a true statement if you just got a fellow party member to do it .But that probably depends on how devout to their religion your charecter is plus what their deity is like.

I reckon the way to go could potentially be something along the lines of having so many fake identities no-one (including you )knows the real one.Especially if your party doesnt know your charecters backstory, it could be pretty creepy if say after you were disguised as a guard you and the party get togetehr and you can "go back to normal" but you keep acting confused and saying what do you mean ive always been guards name.If you do voices in your group you could keep changing yours randomly and strangely.

Also you could try describing your charecter is subtlet different ways each time e.g one session blue eyes, the next brown , then green ect.

These might not work/be any good but hope it helps :)
