#the exorcist
Exorcist AU where the only Catholic powerful enough to cast out the demon that integrated with Bennett is the actual, literal Pope, and Season Three is a ten-episode-long heist movie / buddy cop road trip in which Marcus, Tomas, and Mouse have to steal the Pope from the Vatican, and it’s literally just the plot of National Treasure (given that Marcus and Tomas are somehow both canonical Nicholas Cage fans) except with the added danger of the fact that apparently the entire Catholic Church except for the Pope is demons. Also the treasure at the end is the friends they made along the way.
The final scene is Bennett slowly blinking awake after his ordeal to find himself strapped to the bed of Marcus’ truck, and standing over him are Marcus, Tomas, Mouse, and tHE FUCKING POPE.
(p.s. he says “Bless you, my child,” and Bennett definitely cries.)
Bennett, his head in his hands: “This is not what I thought my life in the Church would be”
Tomas who just helped the pope spiritually fistfight several demons and maybe the devil: “this is exactly what I thought it would be but I decided to become a priest when I was ten”
marcus, teaching the pope to fistbump: “this is exactly what I deserve to happen to me, I’m very cool”
» My life is a series of rooms, demons and coffee that tastes like pot water. Not much more than that. I promise you. «
Thank you
Or, well, the secondary version that I ended up winning in the auction. Not nearly as many marked up pages as the hero version obvs, but still quite a few. I think this might be the version they used in season 2 as it does appear a bit more ~cleaned up on screen? IDK. Please excuse the terrible phone pictures taken on my bed lmao, but this is really all I’m capable of right now. Putting most of these under a cut because there are a lot. I apologize to anyone on mobile if the cut doesn’t do its job. xD
The dedication to the details within the pages of a prop that gets just a few seconds of screen time…guys, STOP I’m
My lot from the Exorcist prop auction arrived in the mail today, a full two weeks before I was expecting it!
Here we’ve got three of Marcus Keane’s sketchbooks, along with their certificate of authenticity.
Inside the two larger ones there are eleven filled pages total, five of which are non-sexual but uh, very intimate Stalker Drawings of Tomas. The other six are (I’m fairly certain,) St. Anthony’s.
All these drawings are still in the notebooks, except one drawing of Tomas, which is loose. Some of the St. Anthony’s ones are very refined and nice, while others are rougher, more outlined and sketch-like.
But then in the littlesketchbook.
In the little sketchbook there are a lot of Marcus’ diary entries. I haven’t read the whole thing yet, and I’m still debating whether or not I should type it up. But there’s a whole story in here, about something that happened to him. I don’t know what yet. Again, I haven’t read the whole thing.
It goes on like this for about half the notebook, then dramatically stops.
I am… frankly overwhelmed. This show means so much to me, and has been such a comfort during a very dark time in my life. I’m so happy to have a little piece of its history like this.
Thank you @clockheartedcrocodile for sharing these!!! ❤️❤️
o its inktober already
i miss the exorcist
there are so many reasons this show
should have been renewedshould be picked up by another network because…tomas ortega,
despite being a walking sin,was actually a precious cinnamon roll who tried to do the right thing. just don’t threaten marcus. sit tf down.there’s marcus ‘soft smol bean who needs 5000 hugs’ keane. unless you harm tomas. fr, don’t glare at him … in fact, don’t even think about harming him or you hella dead.
and then there’s father ‘not afraid to piss demons off’ marcus. seriously, y'all, he’ll be all up in its face. oh look now it’s gonna cry.
tomarcus.we’re out of eggs. yeah, but not only that. we’re still out of eggs!
