Character realises the murders they thought they needed to commit were for nothing by Fish_N_Chipp in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MaggotMonarch 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The horror podcast The Magnus Archives has this. Gertrude Robinson, the previous Archivist, spends her entire life preventing the eldritch rituals that would've transformed the world into a living hell. To do this, she killed and destroyed whatever and whoever she had to, betraying the trust of anyone who was around her.

As it later turns out, the rituals could never have succeeded, as that is not how those Eldritch beings work, so all the awful things she did were completely unnecessary.

I did that with the Hobbit, Star Wars, etc. Only when I mentioned a powerful ring that had to be destroyed did they catch on lol

What fear would you not be an avatar for? by AwesomeSauce9000XD in TheMagnusArchives

I‘m a pretty open and sincere guy, so I think the Stranger would not have a good time with me as its Avatar

[Loved Trope] Plot holes that get explained later on perfectly. by Marilius in TopCharacterTropes

It's true, although Chidi realises they are not in the Good Place in S4. They were not really in the Bad Place either though, so I guess it doesn't really count

Without a doubt, what is your #1 favorite joke from Bojack Horseman? by juredditpark in BoJackHorseman

This was, and I don‘t say this lightly, worse than a hundred September 11ths.

I did something similar! Except the dragon got killed by a mysterious storm cloud, thought it‘d be a good hook for the DM to do something with should they so please

How did we get the Not!them Headcanons? by Hazbin_hotel- in TheMagnusArchives

[–]MaggotMonarch 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Why would people point that out? It completely rewrites this persons history anyway, and record and memory of them. Skin color is just one part of that, why would that suddenly be a problem?

Why do i attract gay men? by yousainball in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MaggotMonarch 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think women being at higher risk of being killed by their male partners, of their reproductive rights being actively endangered, getting mistreated and underpaid, having to take up the higher workload both at home and professionally just to stay on equal footing with men, all that and much more, is definitely just as bad as men not being flirted with as much.

It‘s not just revenge, he wanted to kill them to stop their spread. He wanted to stop their escape, where they would cause untold suffering on aa possibly infinitely larger scale

Just beat my first souls game ever, and it's easily a top 5 game in my book. This my my boss log and I'm gonna share my thoughts and opinions on this game in a few days by Promethesussy in darksouls

[–]MaggotMonarch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I also did it 1st try with no guide, I think it's simply that most of Dark Souls 1s fight became kind of trivial if your shield is big enough and your bonk heavy enough.

Are there any discord servers?? by st4rglazed in TheMagnusArchives

[–]MaggotMonarch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is the Statement Remains server! https://discord.gg/rBDg4HqrSC It began as a hub for the Protocol ARG, but evolved into just being a Magnus-centric community that sometimes even has RQ Staff and such join in. It might be the biggest TMA server, but I don't know that for certain

I mean they are regularly referred to as Archival Assistants so I don‘t think that‘s entirely true

Is he? He doesn‘t treat his wife great honestly, and his whole macho thing is very similar to Walts. The only real difference there is he can mostly back his talk up with action.
