The stranger smiles, eyes wet, like Martin’s just given him everything he’s ever dreamed of and more. “Just—look around. We did it, Martin, we made it.”
Martin flinches back, out of reach of the man’s bloodstained hands, and stares at him. Something is wrong here. So, so wrong. From the blood anointing them both to the way this man says his name like there are worlds of meaning behind it, everything about this is wrong. “Did what?” he pleads. “I- I’m sorry, do I know you?”

[I.D. two photos of giant axolotls made in the style of bead lizard keychains. they are made of cut up sections of pool noodles shaved on the edges to more closely resemble beads and linked by thread. the first axolotl is two shades of blue with pink eyes and the second is orange with pink accents and blue eyes. end I.D.]

Hi there,
If you feel comfortable answering:
Can a newcomer to The Magnus Archives start with The Magnus Protocol or will that be too confusing if they have not finished the original series first?
Have a good [insert time of day]!
jonnywaistcoat answered:
We’re writing Protocol with the intention that you don’t have to have listened to Archives to enjoy it. Anything relevant from Archives should be explained and contextualised when it comes up in Protocol.
That said, obviously certain beats are going to hit harder if you’re familiar with the original series (you might miss out on a few “Oh my god I know THAT voice!” moments) and it may be hard to join in with some of the theorising without that initial grounding, so listening to Archives first is probably a good idea if you have the time and energy for 200 episodes!
Although, now I say it, there are a few ways in which I can imagine being fully steeped in Archives might actually cause you to stumble a bit with Protocol. Certain preconceptions and assumptions that might trip you up. We shall see.
“Go to hell” is basic. “I hope the big bad of the magnus protocol is Jonah Magnus, but none of us realize because he’s body hopped again and has a different voice” is smart. It’s possible. It’s terrifying.

You idiot. We could have been...us.
I...I forgive you.
[ID: a series of gifs showing Crowley and Aziraphale kissing in the bookshop. Crowley grabs Aziraphale's collar roughly and they both wear deeply intense and pained expressions throughout the kiss.

[ID: a digital drawing of Aziraphale and Crowley from the show "Good Omens". Crowley is hugging Aziraphale from behind, gripping his arms and clasped hands. Both have their eyes closed, seemingly sleeping. While Aziraphale and his light clothes glow with a golden light, Crowley's black clothes seem to merge with the dark background. /end ID].

Image description: digital art of Barry and Lup from The Adventure Zone, seen from the shoulders up. Barry's a broad-shouldered human with light skin and graying light brown hair in a mullet, wearing glasses and a white t-shirt. He's blushing and smiling slightly, surrounded by sketched red hearts.
Lup is a slimmer elf with freckled light brown skin and straight blond hair in a ponytail, wearing golden star earrings and a red robe. She's seen in two poses. First, she's looking forward and blushing with a raised eyebrow as she says: "Okay, babe."
In the second, she's grinning and looking away from the viewer. The red Umbra Staff lies horizontal in front of both drawings of Lup, and she's surrounded by sketched blue stars. End description.
