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
Getting myself killed? Or worse...
Salesa, I didn't think you'd be the one to make Harry Potter references-
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)
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-
