Mikaele Salesa - Blog Posts

I need to talk about Mikaele Salesa

Fucking love this man

Just like, think it through: Salesa was everything and more that Leitner tried and failed to be. He have access to artefacts, he knows the supernatural, he can do what very little others can (he thrives through the fucking end of the world!) But he knows what he's doing, he knows how to keep himself and his people safe

Mikaele Salesa is a myth while leitner died a pathetic old man, with no library, no assistents and no books to save him.

Salesa could be a greedy bastard but no, he sells his shit to snotty rich people mostly, he takes care of the shipment himself for not to risk his crew

He knows when to stop, going as far as faking his own death to assure his retirement

He is so dawn sweet and nice when we met him in s5

And what make me love him even more: how he accepts his death. He doesn't fight it, he doesn't try, as many others, to be imortal and unstoppable . He accepts his own mortality and chooses his own end.

Mikaele Salesa is such a human character and i love him for it

hey magnus archives fans i know yall got a lot of mikes… you may even know a mike who isn’t in magnus

consider send one in?

Mikaele Salesa is geniunely one of my favourite characters

So Salesa worked for motherfucking JURGEN LEITNER, saw a guy get eaten by a book and still thought, yeah I'm staying in this line of work but no books. INSANE BEHAVIOUR. And I think it somehow worked out for him, like how? My theory is that he was protected by the secret 15th fear, capitalism

mikaele really said no <3 

Getting myself killed? Or worse...

Expelled?

Salesa, I didn't think you'd be the one to make Harry Potter references-

Is it possible that all of the funniest quotes from the podcast are characters blatantly refusing to obey the poor archivist?

First Michael hitting Jonathan with the:

"LET HER GO!"

"...No???"

I can just imagine Michael adding a good: "Why the fuck would I do that, Archivist? :)"

Then Salesa giving Johnathan a taste of mortality after a while he kept using his newfound powers????

Amaizing, 10/10 (I'm going to admit that all was made a 200% better with Martin's little snort while laughing)

So, um,,,

Was no one gonna tell me that Salesa has a voice THAT beautiful? No wonder this man's had so many clients! With his voice alone he could sell me almost anything-

the next ones make less sense I just think they'd be funny

hermes= simon

the fates= sasha, tim, georgie(??? idk)

I had another idea for the Rich Old Man Squad roadtrip au

its not much but yk how on most roadtrips you rotate between drivers so one person isnt driving the whole time? yeah well tgat doesnt happen here, peter drives the whole time. its not just that though; all pf them have their own little spot and theres an unspoken agreement that everyone stays in their spot. so example elias rides shotgun the whole time, simon rides in the back on the drivers side, etc.

oh also simon is that little bitch who annoys everyone (mostly peter though) by going “are we there yet” every five seconds 💀

more Rich Old Man Squad(™) roadtrip au ideas

yeah so I had more ideas for the Rich Old Man Squad roadtrip au and thought I would share them

so I’ve decided it’s in the us bc I think it would be really funny for them to flounder and struggle as none of them are all that familiar with america

and a scene idea ✨

bc none of them know how to use technology all that well, elias (whos riding shotgun) has a paper map and hes attempting to give peter (whos driving) directions and he Knows what exit they’re looking for but it doesnt match up with the map so they keep missing the exits they need bc elias is confusing peter. there is a shouting match as they go back and forth on the issue. meanwhile, leitner is angrily reading, rayner is repeatedly slamming his head against his seat, salesa has his hands covering his ears in a futile attempt to block out the shouting as he not-so-subtly reads over leitner’s shoulder, and simon is basking in all the fear of the vast that occurs on the american highway system (the others think hes asleep and are amazed at how he can sleep through elias and peter screaming at each other but hes actually just living people’s fear)

edit: I forgot to ask but should I turn this into a fanfic, or at least keep it as a reoccuring thing on this blog?

I made fanart of the Rich Old Man Squad(™) ✨

so I saw @masao-micchi video using the same base and decided that I absolutely had to draw it

I did not do any of them justice but I tried ok 😭

(yes I’m aware how shitty simon’s hair is, its hard to draw with motion blur on)

also I found this comment chain which is absolute gold

and I decided to make a roadtrip au based on it

my ideas so far are as follows:

-at some point they all stop at a hotel for the night and they get three rooms, two people each (leitner and salesa, simon and rayner, peter and elias). putting peter and elias in the same room with only one bed was not a good idea, and simon reminds them the next day that hotel walls are not very thick.

-someone lets simon play music. chaos ensues.

-at some point peter, elias, simon, and rayner all collectively decide to try and ditch leitner and salesa somewhere. it does not go well.

.....MOTHERFUCKER!!! 

Mikaele Salesa : *remarks how much Martin looks and acts like a younger Jurgen leitner*

Me, remembering that Martin’s father left when he was like 9, that he’s supposed to look exactly like him, that Leitner is old enough to be his dad and that Martin’s dad left in the 90’s which is around the same time that the leitner library was destroyed and leitner went into hiding:
