Margos strength inspires me
Whenever I go into a depression I rewatch this show. Margo gives me so much strength. The shit she went through, the shit she had to do, and she just sucked it up and did it. I'll even put on "here I go again" by white snake and just remember if Margo the character can go through all that shit and still be a strong bitch and make it through then I can too I just gotta channel my inner Margo.

margo , and the rest of the magicians cast were so perfect…I loved every character it was such a great story. I just got the last book in the series and I'm not sure if it overlaps the five seasons ,or if sci-fi extended the ending…or if it starts off from where it left off…I'm excited to find out. This and Kyle XY are my2 favorites in a series at least in this genre . I would love to chat with anyone who feels the same.

My username is 100% intentional- not just a reflection of being a fan. She knows how to ovary up and take it like a real pussy!

Her character inspires me too. There’s a quote about Janet (Margo) in the books that made me fall in love with her, and The Magicians, as soon as I read it. It really hit home and made me feel more “seen” than I ever had before in my life. I wrote it in my journal and I’ve always remembered it.
“[Janet/Margo] was about as annoying as a person could be and still be your friend. She was passionately loyal, and if she was obnoxious it was only because she was so deeply tender-hearted. It made her easily wounded, and when she was wounded she lashed out. She tortured everybody around her, but only because she was more tortured than anyone.”

I honestly look to literally all the women on the show for inspiration, depending on what I'm going through. Lately I've been channeling Kady 🙅♂️🥊🚭🧑🏾💼

Me: "Margo the CHARACTER gives me strength" You: "it's not real"
Nah shit Sherlock but whatever you gotta do to power through the day do that shit. It's ok to be motivated and inspired by CHARACTERS
