Pros and cons and dating the avatars of each entity
The Vast
Pros: Literally the best romantic dates ever. Picnicking in the middle of wide-open skies, or giant lakes that stretch on and on forever.
Cons: Kissing at terminal velocity is not as fun as it's cracked up to be.
The Corruption
Pros: Loves you with an intensity. Very clingy. Very touchy-feely.
Cons: You will live in a literal rat's nest.
The Eye
Pros: Knows all your likes and dislikes, knows exactly what you're feeling and what to say and do to make you happy.
Cons: For some reason soon after you start dating them all your computer privacy settings stop working.
The Spiral
Pros: Knife hands! Doors! Corridors! Slowly losing and questioning your sanity the more you spend time with them! Being unsure if they even exist! Fractals! Patterns! What's not to like??
Cons: None!
The Buried
Pros: The blanket forts...... all the blanket forts.......
Cons: Loves the dirt more than they love you.
The Desolation
Pros: Hot.
Cons: Hot.
The Stranger
Pros: They buy so many skin products that your skin will be almost unnaturally smooth after dating them for a few months. Dances with them are great.
Cons: The number of mannequins in the house is starting to get disturbing.
The Dark
Pros: They snap their fingers and the lights instantly go off. Candlelit romance anytime, anywhere.
Cons: There are only so many conversations you can have about the "beauty of the dark sun" until dinner talk grows stale. Will definitely try to convert you to their creepy cult.
The End
Pros: Pulls off the goth aesthetic extremely well, if you're into that.
Cons: Constantly reminds you that you're either going to break up, get married or die, and muses aloud their speculations about which one it'll be. Also, the only album they ever listen to is MCR's Black Parade.
The Flesh
Pros: Very interesting good in bed.
Cons: You will constantly find yourself sighing, "Jason, tell me the truth. Did you cook human meat for dinner AGAIN?!"
The Hunt
Pros: Extremely passionate kisses. Almost ravenous, you could say.
Cons: furry :/
The Slaughter
Pros: cute when they angy!
Cons: You tried to make a "you're not you when you're hungry" joke once and they nearly stabbed your eye out.
The Web
Pros: I mean who doesn't love extra eyes and legs?
Cons: "vriska did nothing wrong"
The Lonely
Pros: Will give you space whenever you need it. Maybe more enthusiastically than you'd want.
Cons: Wants to see you so little you're not even sure whether you're in a relationship anymore. You talk to them once every three weeks. Embarrasses you at the annual Institute party.
Thought this was a TMA post for a hot second and was contemplating an AU in which this was how Jon got marked by The Desolation
(John voice) arthur what is a homosexual
The problem w the Magnus archives is that it’s got such a widely applicable power/allignmentish system that once u get into it the urge to assign characters from other series entities like edgier hogwarts houses is irresistible.
My design for The Desolation! Check out this button here on my Storenvy!
Would anyone be interested in buttons based off of The Entities??
Silvery sands we walked over,
Footprints smitten but never forgotten,
Quite deftly destroying the perfect arches.
And how long shall we climb the ridges for?
When the light warms the time held in our fingers,
Running through steadily, yet fast,
Shuffling of only the crushed thorns,
Our bare feet sink into the
dissolved, ghostly essence of the past,
And we sit with the light, reminiscing the fall.
this art is already so satisfying to look at but fun fold-out formatting unleashes the serotonin gates. pet treat hidden inside a toy type beat.
anyway if I’m correct in assuming that the layered parts fold out, I’d go absolutely feral for a distortion version with opening doors/panels
Made a sketchbook page for Agnes Montague:)
I might do one page/spread for all prominent tma characters (or whichever ones I choose). If you want to see more of that, please tell me! Also, if you want to you can recommend any tma character you want me to do a similar page of!

#3: Avatar of The Desolation! Agnes Montague
Designing her outfit, I obviously made it very plain! I like the idea I've seen around that as a desolation avatar, she destroys things that are loved. So, the only reason her clothes aren't up in flames is because they are plain and mean nothing to her. Don't think she'd be one to accessorize because of this.
(BTW I wholly believe her theme song would be Agnes by Glass Animals)
"but to look at her- it was too much for most"
i think agnes is such an interesting character, i love me some sacrificial lamb. i dont really have much else to say abt this, just thought it also would be great to include her gfs in this lul (that is gertrude n jude in case it aint obvious)
anyway im not sure who to do as emperor, so either ill skip that one or figure it out on the way, who knows (and maybe itll just be joshua gillespie lmao). in case u have any idea, id love to hear it <3
I heart accidental cult leaders (she's just a girl your honor those people deserved to get burnt to death)
Do you guys think that the statements would taste different for whatever fear it is. I feel like they would, so I made a list of what I think they would taste like.
Spiral: sour rainbow belts
End: green grapes
Eye: mint
Lonely: tomato soup
Vast: cotton candy
Corruption: apple that’s slightly gone bad
Flesh: beef
Hunt: chicken
Slaughter: that one red sour jelly thingy that you put on sour candies frkm like juicy drops
Desolation: spicy chicken
Dark: dark chocolate
Burried: potatoes
Extinction: green apple
Web: purple grapes
Stranger: bubble gum
so imagine being jon after the coma and reading a statement and it’s like BAM!! BUBBLE GUM. !
A Desolate Sunday
You see it's funny as that's the sundae name and it's a pun on sundae and sunday and the desolation as it's desolation themed.
a desolation themed sundae!!
Recipe included under the photos!
You will need:
1 Gramcraker
1 large marshmallow (or marshmallow fluff)
1 pint of Ben & Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream or any other extremely chocolaty ice cream
1 bag of microwave popcorn
And Carmel syrup.
and a bowl is pretty important.
Step 1.
Fallow the instructions on how to make the popcorn on the popcorns box. While that cooks move to step 2.
Step one 2.
Crush the gram cracker into a powder and cover the bottom of the bowl.
(in the sundae shown I just snapped the graham cracker in half instead of crushing it, but for better dinning experience crush it)
Step 3
Put your choice of marshmallow or fluff on top of the graham cracker.
Step 4
Put bowl in the microwave for 10 seconds. So the marshmallow or fluff will melt. the marshmallow/ fluff will not be fully melted by 10 seconds so take i t out and then put it in for another 10 seconds. The reason why you don't put it in for a full minute it that the marshmallow/ FLUFF WILL EXPLODE. Make sure to watch carefully as it cooks especially the marshmallow
Once the marshmallow/fluff is at the constancy you please move to next step
Step 5
Take out your ice cream and put as many scoops you please into the bowl.
Step 6 (optional)
Sprinkle white chocolate chips on top of the ice cream.
(I personally don't like white chocolate and it just made things crunchier, nuts might be a better option.)
Step 7
Take out the popcorn and sprinkle it onto of the ice cream. You might need to place it instead and gently push it into the ice cream so it doesn't fall off.
Step 8
Drizzle the Carmel syrup on top. Make sure to get some on the pop corn.
Step 9.
Dig in and enjoy!
Finale notes:
The popcorn and the chocolate mix is surprisingly good, and the popcorn helps it get that burning twist to this desolate sundae.
I am currently on a mission to make all 14 entitles into sundaes.
And I was concerned I wouldn't be able to get the burning element to translate into sundae form. But despite this I think I managed to get that burning element in and still get a good tasting sundae. Though there are things I'd change with the final product I'm quite happy with how it tasted, and those changes I was able to add to the final recipe product.
I am working on the other entities and I have finished one other sundae (the spiral) I am not fully happy with how it came out so I haven't posted it yet. I will post it when I'm done tweaking it and I'm happy with the final outcome.
So for right now enjoy your desolate sundae.
