scar tissue from the broken glass shards:
bone fractures from bruises which fade,
brain disruptions from chemical binges,
these marks are the trail left by trauma;
you are not evil but you are really hurt.

homunculus facts¡
homunculi are very rarely buried fast enough to be preserved as fossils•
despite this' we have a very good idea of the evolution of homunculi over the span of geologic time•
this is due to a combination of the aforementioned fossils' the genetic evidence of modern homunculi' and a few lucky homunculi who have been alive the whole time•

Okay so some of you may be familiar with the fact that alchemy heavily relates to The Magnus Protocol, especially with the latest episode.
It's already admitted that Sam Khalid's name is at least inspired by Prince Khalid Ibn Yazid, a famous alchemist from the 7th century. Well I'd like to go a bit deeper, and point out more connections :
Alice Dyer -> Edward Dyer
Teddy Vaughn -> Thomas Vaughan
Colin Becher -> Johann Joachim Becher
Lena Kelley -> Edward Kelley
Celia Ripley -> George Ripley
Chester -> Robert de Chester
I've yet to find anything about Norris or Augustus but this is what I've got. But there's more ! There are connections !
Edward Dyer and Thomas Vaughan were both Rosicruscians (and friends, too), a subcategory of alchemists
Robert De Chester was the one who translated Khalid Ibn Yazid's works from Arabic to Latin
Johann Joachim Becher was German, then travelled to England and resided in Scotland
Edward Kelley worked with Robert Boyle (mentionned in MAGP 19)
I'm not sure exactly what to do with it, but that's what I've got. I'm going insane over that so expect some more over the next few days.

The head is from a small limestone statue depicting one of the Amarna princesses, perhaps the eldest, Meritaten. Her hair is styled in a thick sidelock, a symbol of her youth.

Starting a business with two separate bathrooms, except one of them has the symbol for alchemical antimony on the door, and the other, the symbol for alchemical phosphorus. If you ask the staff about it, they claim to understand your confusion, then lead you to a third, previously undisclosed bathroom with the alchemical symbol for potassium carbonate.
