Five: *shaking like a rabid cat* iTs the FucKInG ApoCAlypse AGaiN. It's fucking starting. First bastard sign.

the AU where somebody brings the Camera with the broken lens to the Magnus Institute for Artefact Storage, accidentally and effectively nerfing the entire institute for as long as the camera remains nobody feels compelled to give dramatic statements, employees can suddenly quit, Jonah has no idea what’s going on

i relistened to hive and realized something: there is a reference to every single one of the fourteen entities in jane’s statement. obviously jane herself is corruption, and while giving her statement, she speaks about arthur nolan (the desolation) and oliver banks (the end). some of the other references are vaguer, but they’re all there.

the web

the slaughter

the flesh

the eye

the buried

the spiral

the dark

the vast

the hunt

the stranger

and the image limit won’t let me add the screenshot, but there’s a Lonely reference too: “i was lonely before, i know that. i had friends, at least i used to, but i lost them. or they lost me.”

i just think that’s such a neat detail. jane is the first avatar we meet, our introduction to smirke’s 14, so i love that she makes a connection to every entity

I’ll say one thing for the two train wrecks that are Prometheus and Alien Covenant… they did give us the very beautiful and deeply disturbing prototype synthetic, David.

An android so spectacularly hard to please that he eliminated the population of an entire planet simply because they disappointed him. ‘I tell you that it’s sad but true… there’s just no pleasin’ you’ (Boom! Bap! Pow! - No Pleasin’)

Hannibal Lecter + unbuttoning his suit jacket

Puki will you leave tumblr because everyone’s acting like it’s dead now :(

The Magnus Protocol villains, more or less, approximately

A fun theory

In this brilliant post, op shows how Jane Prentiss encounters and mentions all 14 Fears, describing them as though she deeply understands them all from within her corrupted lens. Op calls it an early hint in the narrative to the Fears and their role in the world but I want to posit an in-world theory.

I think that part of the reason the Web sent a spider to cause Jon to break the wall and lead Jane to act earlier than she wanted was because Jane's rudimentary ritual to bring the Corruption to the world (through the circle of worms which Tim later found) would have actually worked in bringing all the Fears because Jane was already marked by all of them and was now in a place of power (the tunnels under the institute) and ready to incubate and create a corruption-based apocalypse.

This is something that the Web did not plan for and would not be able to control, because, as Jon said in episode 152, "what did Elias call it? – Filth. I don’t think it really plans much. It just starts to grow wherever it can get a foothold, and, if no one stamps it out in time… game over." The Web has no control over a thing that doesn't plan and had to "stamp it out" before it caused a "game over" by derailing all its schemes of a controlled eyepocalypse, ruled by its puppets (Jon and Jonah).
