[ID: The Magnus Archives fanart of Jon and Martin kissing in Jon's office. Jon sits at his desk, his fist is balled in Martin's shirt, and he is pulling him down for the kiss. There is a spilled mug of tea, and several papers fluttering to the ground by Martin's hand. There is a painting of Jonah Magnus on the wall behind Jon and Martin. He looks at the viewer with wide eyes. The office is cramped and messy, there are boxes and stacks of paper on the floor and shelves. There are small references to each of the 14 fears in the background. They are as follows: a coffin drawn on the chalkboard, a skull on the shelf on the left wall, a copy of The Bone Turner's Tale, a jar of ashes, and a spider on the shelf behind Jon, fog in the hopper windows near the ceiling, candles, a pair of antlers, a knife, and a clown doll on the shelf behind Martin, a surrealist painting of a door on a flat landscape, a tall painting of a ship on a stormy sea -both on the right wall-, and a cracked cabinet door revealing complete darkness on the left side of the room.

Hello, I cannot stop thinking about how Jon’s face must have looked when Martin said, “I really loved you, you know?”

Gertrude actually smiles before she crosses to return the microphone to Gerry.
“Ugh, lovely!” he says into it. “Thanks, Gigi.”
He takes several hasty steps towards the dance floor, only just escaping the smack over the arm Gertrude aims at him.

[ID: An eight page digital comic featuring Sam, Celia, and Alice from The Magnus Protocol on a gray background. The characters are all colored with a single color each. Sam is red, Celia is green, and Alice is pink. Sam is a fat Arab man with short curly dark hair, a mustache, and a small goatee, and he is wearing small black earrings, a cardigan, a turtleneck, trousers and loafers. Celia is a taller Korean woman with short dark hair and she is wearing rectangular glasses, piercings including an industrial piercing, an x-shaped earring, and snakebites, a button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a vest, trousers, and black wrist cuffs. Alice is an even taller white woman with long fluffy hair and crooked teeth, and she is wearing cat eye glasses, three pairs of earrings, snakebites, a flannel shirt, a hoodie tied around her waist, a patchwork skirt, bracelets, and a lanyard.
Sam and Celia are stood at a table covered in papers. Celia urgently turns to Sam. Celia: Alice is coming! She can't catch us researching, we need a diversion, QUICK! How can we make her think we're not doing what we're doing? Sam, shrugging really hard: UHHHH she thinks I have a crush on you?? Celia, sweating, turns back to where Alice is coming from, panicked, and turns back to Sam, shrugging and reaching for him. Celia smiling a bit manically: Yeah, that'll work, sure!
Sam, with Celia's hands grabbing his cardigan: Wait whaAAAA- He is pulled out of frame. Alice walks in: Hey Sam, working hard or hardly woOOOAA She leans on the doorframe as she holds a hand to her chest in shock.
The next panel is rendered with soft pink shadows and "shoujo sparkles" in the now pink background. Sam is sitting on the table holding onto Celia, whose face is buried in his neck as she wraps one arm around his back and the other holds up one of his legs under his knee. Neither of their faces are visible. The rest of the page fades back to gray from there. Sam and Celia look over at Alice, hair ruffled, Sam is now blushing. Sam: ALICE!! He pushes Celia away and they look at each other for a moment, panicked. Sam: It's- .... exactly what it looks like! Celia: Aw, you've caught us! He rests his hands on her shoulders and they both look in opposite directions as though embarrassed. Celia is also blushing lightly. There are red and green neon signs pointing to them reading "Totally Ham-Slammin'" and "GAY! (in an M/F way)" respectively.
Alice looks to be in shock with a vacant expression and a computer pop up over her forehead reading "Alice.exe has stopped responding". In the next panel she is fine again and back to smirking. Alice: WOW SAM, didn't know you had it in you! Now I'm no snitch, so I didn't see anything, BUT- you lovebirds should cut it out before Gwen catches you. Celia and Sam look at each other anxiously, cheeks pressed together as she speaks. Alice: You KNOW she'd tell Lena. Celia, pulling back and smoothing her hair out: Oh, for sure. Sam: Th-Thanks, Alice. Alice: Don't mention it! I'll give you crazy kids a minute to straighten up, TA-TA~ She waves as she leaves.
Sam and Celia listen to her steps fade before going "phew" and finally pulling away from each other, now holding hands at an arms distance. Celia: You alright? That was kinda sudden.... Sam: It's fine! Just a bit caught off guard. Celia: I can't believe she actually bought all of that! Sam: Me either! Works for me, though.
Celia: Did you want to get down- Sam, pulling away suddenly, blushing again: NO! He crosses his legs and looks away sheepishly, scratching his head. Sam: I wanna stay here another minute or so.... Celia, concerned: You sure you're alright? Sam: Yeah! Just, er.... Celia looks at him, confused. Sam, blushing increasingly harder: Ahem. (He folds his hands in his lap politely.) I am not immune to being thrown on a table. Celia, smiling and politely stepping away: AH! .... Noted~
She walks away casually, still smiling. Celia: I'll give you a minute to collect yourself. Sam, head down in his lap, embarrassed: Thanks.... He looks up after she leaves. Sam: Wait. He straightens up, slightly panicked, face entirely red. Sam: What do you mean by "NOTED"?!
end ID]
~~~~
i am SO glad this episode didn't entirely debunk the silly headcanon that birthed this comic. initially i wasn't convinced sam actually had a crush so i made this like "well if he didn't before, HE DOES NOW" so.... here's this silly comic thing <3 i just think they're neat <3

[ID: Digital drawing of Gerry and Gertrude from The Magnus Protocol. Gerry is a thin white man with grown-out dyed black hair and blonde roots. His hair is in a bun with a pencil and stained paintbrush stuck in it. He wears an open red overshirt, grey jeans, and a black t-shirt with bleach painting on it that reads “Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Keay”. He is holding a mug and biting his lip, looking slyly to one side. Gertrude is an old white woman with silver hair. She wears a red cardigan, blue shirt, and grey skirt, with spectacles on a chain perched on her nose. She looks in the same direction as Gerry, frowning disapprovingly. End ID.]

[ID1: Six bust drawings of Martin from TMA. He is a fat white man who begins with ginger hair, freckles, and a rosy complexion, but these fade into duller brown hair with streaks of grey and pallor as time progresses. The drawings show him: grinning and looking to the side as he says “Cheater!”; in profile and dressed in all black with tears running down his face; in profile and biting his lip pensively; looking at something with restrained alarm; beaming delightedly as he says “Jon’s here!?!” with love hearts surrounding the words; and staring in terrified wonderment at a burning piece of paper in his hand, sweat beading on his face.
ID2: Six bust drawings of Jon from TMA. He is a thin man with medium-brown skin, starting with a carefully-groomed moustache and short, mostly-black curly hair. As time progresses he accumulates increasingly dramatic scars across the visible parts of his body, his hair and beard turn almost entirely silver and grow markedly longer, and he looks increasingly exhausted and haggard. He is shown: looking uncertainly to one side with lurid purple highlights; smiling subtly down at something; lifting a cigarette to his mouth with a shaking hand in wide-eyed terror; in profile, wrapping his arms around his knees with a moody expression; in profile, staring somewhat blankly with a red glow in his eyes; eyes closed with a depleted or restful expression, with his hair messily cropped. End ID.]
hiiiiii im still being normal. Do Not Separate btw

Urgent and very serious and well-reasoned theory: the biggest difference between Archives-verse and Protocol-verse is that Protocol takes place in a dimension where no one is, ever was, or will ever be named Michael.

[ID: A ten-panel comic of Alice, Gwen, Sam, and Colin from The Magnus Protocol. Alice is at her computer as it reads a case, saying “Soon will the moment of reckoning come—” and she interrupts to say “oop! No thanks, Augustus </3”. She gets up from her desk and calls to Gwen who sighs in response and says “What is it, Alice?” Alice replies “Gwen do you think swans would be Tories.” Gwen says “What.” and Alice proceeds “You know, because the Crown owns them.” Raising an eyebrow, Gwen says “I don’t think swans would respect the processes of a constitutional monarchy, Alice.” Alice says “Nah, they’d be total bootlickers.”
Interrupting, Sam says “I think ducks would vote for Labour. They’re very polite and they’d want robust healthcare and education for their ducklings.” Alice looks amused while Gwen silently regrets the trajectory of her life. Coming in the door, Colin says “I think geese would be anarchists.” Alice turns to him and asks “How did you hear this vitally important discourse from out there, exactly?” to which Colin says “I didn’t. Why, what were you talking about?” End ID.]
i mean if wishful thinking can turn something into a workplace comedy once it can do it twice right. everyone’s gonna stay fine forever. right

[ID: A digital comic of Gwen and Alice from the shoulders up on a gray background. Gwen is colored in gray, and Alice is colored in a dusty pink. Gwen is a woman with long hair in a high ponytail, she's wearing dangly earrings, a button-down shirt and an off-the shoulder sweater. Alice is a woman with long fluffy hair, freckles, and crooked teeth. She's wearing cat-eye glasses, snakebites, three pairs of earrings, a unbuttoned flannel, and a hoodie. Gwen is looking up at Alice with fury, a vein bulging from her forehead and saying "you should be addicted to shutting the fuck up". Alice is looking down at her smiling smugly and double-chinning and saying "you wanna fuck me so bad it makes you look stupid". end ID]

[ID: Digital sketches of Alice Dyer and Gwen Bouchard from The Magnus Protocol. Alice is a tall, thin, white woman with blonde curly hair, and Gwen is a shorter thin Black woman with shoulder-length natural hair. In the first two drawings, Gwen is ranting at Alice, saying “you don’t know *cataloguing*, you don’t know *work ethic*, you don’t know *good names for TTS gen*—” at which point Alice interrupts by kissing her. There is a peace sign above their heads. In the third, they gaze at one another, both smiling gently. In the fourth, Alice is hugging Gwen from behind and smiling as Gwen looks away with a troubled expression. In the last they are sitting together in low lighting. Gwen holds a cigarette to her lips as Alice laughs at something. End ID.]
