The Magnus Protocol Speculation (spoilers for TMAGP episodes 1 and 2 and general themes from TMA):

I've seen a few posts about how Protocol's introduction seems thematically opposite of TMA's introduction. Naturally I can't find them now, but the ideas that stuck out were: -the notes from Protocol's theme music being an inversion of Archive's theme -MAG 1's Anglerfish luring someone in, vs. the case of RedCanary, where something is decidedly trying to keep people out. -Alice's firm stance that Sam needs to stop digging and mentally dump everything he hears from a case might indicate a connection to The Dark (if anyone can find the posts I'm talking about, I'll happily edit them in. Tumblr's search is AWFUL)

All of this has me thinking about how the mission of The Magnus Institute and the mission of the OIAR could be complete opposites. The public-facing service the Institute provides, is this: if something inexplicable happens to you, you can come to the Institute, tell us about it, and we will investigate. The Institute will send a team (even if that team is just Martin with a flashlight), they'll try to figure it out, and you (the public) can be at ease. From what we've seen so far, the OIAR inverts everything: if something inexplicable happens to you, the obscure OIAR will find out, regardless of how private that information should be. The OIAR will take that information, and send it to… well, Alice seem to think "no one". It gets labelled and filed away to never be seen or acted upon. The people doing the labeling can be at ease - it's no longer in their hands, they don't need to worry about it. In fact, those who do worry about it and think too hard - Sam and Gwen - face backlash from the other workers. Someone Else Is Handling It.

MAG 01 sees a new boss charged with cleaning up and organizing the old boss's mess to bring order. TMAGP 01 sees a new grunt worker being told to tiptoe around the mess and embrace chaos.

I don't subscribe to the idea that Smirke's 14 will be the same and relevant to Protocol. But if they were, I wouldn't be so quick to align the OIAR with the Dark alone. I see some high concept elements of the Buried here. Information isn't being concealed the way I'd expect with the Dark; it's being given a neatly informative headstone in the form of a DPHW index code and put Forever Deep Below.

And our team is going to have to DIG.

btw rogue one fam, if there are any of you left out there who haven't seen OSP's video essay on Rogue One yet - watch it! It's such a great read of the movie and, as a bonus, it is frequently fucking hilarious:

(excellent jokes aside this is an outstanding take that honest to god had never ocurred to me before this video, and honestly i've thought about this movie so much in the last EIGHT YEARS that I'm kinda shocked that's even possible)

Look at these chapter titles: "We Do Not Grant You The Rank Of Masterpiece" (re: The Prequels), "Congratulations! Your Franchise Is Being Rescued" "Rebellions Are Built On A New Hope", "Use The Foregone Conclusion"....

This video among other things gives the fascinating suggestion that the Force is essentially equivalent to the plot - "all is as the Force wills it" = this is what needs to happen for the plot to work. And I think I audibly cheered the first time I heard someone with some online reach say "Rogue One and Andor aren't just good, they actively make all of Star Wars better" because they do and people aren't talking about that nearly enough. Imagine making a movie so good it makes decades' worth of George Lucas's scripts better.

It also has the most interesting, most compelling take I've heard in all these years on what the function of The Vader Scene is and why it goes so insanely hard. And also the funniest and most accurate take on Harrison Ford's whole deal I've ever seen.

It's so good please watch it - and come yell at me about it if you do!

Some bits of infos about Garnet.

Like Ryder, Garnet is from Germany. His real name is Falco Ritter. He's the owner of the Hell Bunker, a location that hosts diverse techno parties and concerts (but also some other genres), located under the Dark Matter Building in Japantown, Westbrook.

He's the inventor of the event 'Chrome Chamber Rave', the radio station "Hellbunker fm' is also his own. He wants people of Night City to experience that techno(ise) from Europe is simply the best, especially the one from Germany (as techno roots come from there).

He's well knwon in the underground scene and he even may have some connections to Maelstrom. I'm not 100% done with him, so some details might change and his background story is also more or less in the making. He's more of a side character but a very close friend to Ryder. I created him mainly as supportive character for Ry rather than that he's a V or going to be a main character. He's no merc, but a musician (DJ) who knows how to defend himself as he's got gorilla arms (it's me wanting to play with that set up as well so yea why not give him that).
