I am a sucker for brutal massive old ladies, Jonny what where you thinking?

[cryptiicism]

hey guys , you notice a trend with the monsters in protocol ?

• trenchcoat guy

• needles

• bonzo

• ink5oul

they're all themed with the desire to be known , the exact opposite of " i do not know you "

think about it , tattoos are easily identifiable . mascots are a staple of identification for franchises , the dnd trenchcoat guy made a distinguished persona to be known . needles whole thing was being afraid because he is to be known , seen .

in tma we didn't know and we were afraid , but in tmagp we are known and scares us .

to be known is to be seen , and to be seen is the most frightening thing because you are vulnerable .

even in alice's stalker ties into this , stalkers follow and find out everything about you and that is terrifying .

in tma , jon was driven to know so he was not afraid . but he " died " not knowing who he was anymore , and now we don't know either .

its the age old " some questions are better left unknown " because alice is right , the more you know your fears , the more they are drawn to you to be known on a deeper level .

stay safe canaries

What a fun coincidence that we're seeing so many references to MAG 65 guys? So funny that keeps happening. It can't possibly mean anything, right?

Right???

True magnus protocol horror is UK train fare, as it should be

maybe someone has already said something similar, but i haven't seen anyone talking about this and after ep19 i feel like i can't wait any longer to share this theory.

so in @pinkelotjeart 's arg video on youtube (so huuuge thanks for that video!!!), there are a few short clips being played as part of the arg. right now im particularly interested in two of these, namely the ones that start at 36:32 and 40:56. in the first one we can see the symbol of tin/jupiter on a folder that belongs to a person who asks not to investigate lady mowbray, and the second one shows 10 alchemical symbols in this order:

lead/saturn

mercury/mind

sulfur/soul

fire

salt/body

tin/jupiter

gold/sol

cinnabar

ash/asjes

iron/mars

(actually cinnabar is shown twice, right at the beginning in a different form, and then later amongst these symbols, but you can see that in the video)

now, i don't know anything about alchemy, but i found this on the internet about tin/jupiter:

Jupiter/Tin is connected with growth, the metabolic system, the liver, the tongue, saliva and the nutrients given to the blood through food.

sounds familiar, doesn't it? i think it echoes the vibe of ep15 'well run' really well. and why is this important? because that one small video linked tin/jupiter to lady m.

also, as i have recently discovered, the symbol for salt/body can be found on the ink5oul instagram page and the way their tattoos work sounds a lot like:

The pain and bitterness that comes with [...] growth is connected to the purifying principles of salt.

i just found these quotes on a random website related to modern day alchemy, but i'll link it later if i manage to find it again.

conclusion(?): i think that all the 'people' (or most likely externals) are somehow linked to these alchemical symbols and the oiar is working on balancing these out in a way (i think?) maybe to bring about some 'ritual' but i don't actually have a good idea for this.

also some of these forces might be good as lena said? i don't know that either, but maybe?

Oh god I'm seeing people celebrating the fact that in this universe Gerard Key is safe and happy, and like, has it occurred to you that this is exactly what the dark forces that be (the writers) want you to think?

They want you to lower your guard, this is going to be "good cows" all over again, have you forgotten your roots? This is the horrifying tragedy podcast, terrible things are going to happen, to everyone you love.

Something something the fist statement being about someone being recognized yet not being that person anymore "Part of him" and laughing.

something something about the second being about a woman changing her self and not being scared or afraid but mostly annoyed that her work got ruined.

Something something about the third being yet again about transformation and becoming part of the horror and finding peace and serenity in it.

Something something about how the only one that break the mold is a warning.

Something something about change and metamorphosis and coming back wrong.

Something something hubris.

Greed. Pride. Jealousy.

A new cicle.

Most statements used to be about people WITNESSING things. The eye always at work seeing everything and feeding on the stories.

Something something about being part of the horror (the computers) something something about how curiosity will kill you.

Is not just Canary.

They are all a warning.

Colin isn't weird. Scottish people just fucking HATE computers. yeah, it's massive problem. we don't get many comp sci graduates
