Today I mistook Kayne for Will Wood.
That got me thinking about all that killing your alternates mess, he got himself into and I thought that Will Wood is the only alternate Kayne couldn’t kill. Because Will just beat him up in his skibidi sigma rizz rap battle and Kayne got so upset that he ate Will’s mike and ran off to some other alternative universe, wiping the humiliation of the minds.
Basically Kayne is the reason why Will don’t remember 2012, yeah, how could we not see it.
this made me develop my own headcannon:
Hunter is the one who killed the bear in the cafeteria.
Simply because of this art.
It would make the narrative foil that is Hunter Jeremiah Hartley even more perfect than it is already.
bears and hunters
Personally I think it was Jonny who was mechanized first which makes him “older”, but Nastya was mechanized at a time later in her life, which makes her “older”.
Nastya would totally bully Jonny about it.
> im making this poll because im always going back and forth about these two, in my head. plus, im curious of what other's think of them. please reblog and feel free to share reasons for ur choice/ other sibling headcanons!
[ounce of self hate thoughts hit] oh man I’m Arthur Lester fr
idk if anyone’s made this comparison yet, but “Whose Eye Is It Anyway?” by Jhariah fits very well with all the Jarthur divorces.
And its not even just the mentions of blindness.
It just seems to encapsulate a lot of my personal ideas about Jarthur during their divorces.
Just the first section, “My head is overflowing, with these thoughts/That if I return the favor you might understand/But I know, I know you could never carry the burden/You've left with me and I can't give it back/So why even try?” It just fits some of their early dynamics.
I’m not very good at explaining this stuff the way it works in my head. But you can probably draw your own comparisons.
I hate that i feel pain and sorrow and grief and madness for myself and my only instinct is to turn it into a beautiful piece of art.
you ever feel the all consuming
For media, connection, or even just food?
what if i was just normal about something for once
no
instead, the only dreams i remember are taking place in podcast world
Not to be an English major, but my genuine favorite part of Malevolent is how it handles its themes. Overall Malevolent tackles such profound and interesting ideas to chew on, but it's specifically the approach it takes to those ideas that really gets me going.
For example, one of the major themes across several seasons and characters is identity. The podcast asks pretty standard questions like "How do you define yourself?" and "How do others define you?" But it doesn't choose to stop there! It constantly expands on that idea, and it also asks things like "Which of those definitions is the 'real' you?" and "Are any of them right, are any of them wrong?" and "Is there even a singular definitive version of you?"
Malevolent works out from one idea and poses all these rich lines of discussion and questioning, and then just. Doesn't provide an answer! Or, at least, not a single, one-size-fits-all answer. Instead, it gives us multiple possibilities:
John's arc tells us that your identity is what you make— what you say, what you decide— and no one else's definition of you matters. Arthur's arc tells us that you can get stuck in a rigid, self-deprecating personal identity, so you need others' perspectives to help you see and love the real "you." Larson's story tells us that you do not have the right to selectively accept/deny parts of your identity and actions, and that others can see the whole of "you" whether or not you take accountability for it. Noel's story tells us that you can choose what parts of your past define you, and that leaving behind all the other versions of yourself can be beautiful and empowering. Kayne's story tells us that leaving behind other versions of yourself is akin to murder, killing off the pieces that you don't like and pretending like you've evolved past your own self. Yellow's arc tells us that your identity is fluid and can easily be influenced or manipulated by what others tell you, and by that point you've changed your own self-definition to something entirely new that can be just as true or untrue as the old you.
With all of these characters and with every other character throughout the show, we get a unique answer to the question "What is identity?" And if you look further at all the characters, you can break down their different arcs over the seasons and find even more answers just within that one character's development and story. And some of the answers we get correspond, and some of them contradict, and none of them are the right answer, and all of them are the right answer.
Malevolent takes one idea, and then it crafts an incredibly nuanced and humanistic exploration of said idea that adapts with respect to whatever situation or character it is applied to. And it uses this approach with all of its themes: identity, morality, guilt, grief, love, hope, etc.
Malevolent knows that life is messy, that people are complicated and contradictory and diverse and ever-changing, that no part of the universe or humanity can ever be explained or defined in a simple manner. Malevolent knows all that, and it wants to help us understand that too.
Malevolent shows us that nothing can ever be easily understood or answered, and it shows us that that fact is beautiful.
obsessed with Hunter Jeremiah Harley’s overwhelming need to survive and willingness to kill someone who saw him as a best friend.
like thats just so oughhhh
forever going to listen to hunter the bear about it
i think it would be funny if someone chose to be arthurs left FCU tendon (the pinky flexor thingy)
because its kinda useless now
sorta?
Wait, if wearing the pallid mask can make you see John, did Daniel see him while looking at the tentacle thing?
That would be even better proof honestly.
Oh! This gives me good ideas for like, Noel/John fanfiction. That would be cool. If I wrote anything anymore.
When my great grandmother got married, she drove a car for the first time while returning it to her father-in-law.
Her husband assumed she could drive because her dad owned a car dealership.
So he started it up for her, told her to follow him, and she crashed it into a ditch.
A few years later, she became the one of the first women to get a CDL(commercial driver’s license) to drive with her husband for North American Van Lines inc.
She’s 96 years old this year and spry as a spring chicken.
I’m visiting family in Montana and I cannot stop thinking about woe.begone
guys im in woe.begone country. glacier national park? no. Sylvester August Baxter country.
my grandpa is a potter and he makes pots with bison all over them and so i cant stop thinking about the american bison.
THERE ARE BEAR IMAGES EVERYWHERE MY SISTER IS SO TIRED OF ME POINTING AND GOING “omg the bear” “look, its mike” “the bear” “hahaha lol ‘i’m the bear’”
Woe.Begone is everywhere. I’ve listened to season 10 at least three times in a week. I want to go to ol’ brush valley, i want to wonder what it is about that place.
PSA:
Folks, if your post involves only Magnus Protocol, don't tag Magnus Archives, you're clogging the tags and possibly spoiling the show for people who've only finished Archives.
DON'T CROSS TAG. THIS IS NOT TIKTOK. THE TAGS ARE FOR SEARCHING, NOT FOR VISIBILITY ON THE FYP.
shoutout to season ten of WOE.BEGONE
gotta be the least confusing of them all, the most gut-wrenching (except for season 9’s ep 99. The Bear is Dead), and honestly my personal favorite.

this here’s the ballad of cowboy jaAMM

“Alas, poor Yorick.”
composition was originally inspired by this image of jeremy brett cast in Hamlet, literally holding Yorick lol (swear I was not going to make this painting as complicated as it turned out but I learn from the best when it comes to falling down holes.)
ramble but this just Really turned into me wanted to convey how simultaneously badass and absolutely fucked Arthur is. Just in general, but of course referencing the latest arc… also wanted an excuse to properly paint John’s hand, the wood thing fun as hell. 14hrs of my life used efficiently I say. Malevolent podcast you absolute parasite (positive).
Version where Arthur is just a little different\/
are you ever talking so someone and you realize just how superior you feel to them? to everyone? you can encapsulate this person’s humanity in just a few minutes, have a very good understanding of how they work, comfort them, make them hurt in an instant, or whatever else? and then you realize that this is true of everyone you’re close to. you dont see what benefit you gain from having them around, you put the energy into the relationships and you know so much more than they do about how this works. they have no clue. and you feel guilt for all of it. how dare you feel superior? am i a narcissist? flawed? i know im flawed. i let everyone know how flawed i am. always. this is important to this experience. you must never be better because then you are foolish. and yet you feel superior.
maybe its just the sillies
i love doodling little screampin guys because i dont actually know how to draw mouths or eyes or anatomy in general
