An Aside From The Next Morning: Oddly, This Makes Lena The Georgie Of This Universe. She Doesn't Seem

An aside from the next morning: Oddly, this makes Lena the Georgie of this universe. She doesn't seem to want much. She's just vibin

I'm seeing a lot of people attempt to assign the FearsTM to the Magnus Protocol episodes and I want to start by saying I respect it. I do. Love some good sleuthing.

But.

The Magnus Protocol takes place in a new universe, with new rules. Within each case, the figure meeting their grisly downfall is motivated by ~desire,~ not fear.

Desire for love, desire for revenge, desire for success, beauty, fame, etc.

With that in mind, each character within the OIAR can also be defined by desire. Sam wants answers. Alice wants companionship. Gwen wants success. Celia wants freedom. And so on.

In the last series, defeating fear was all someone needed to survive; defeating your own desires would be much harder to pull off.

Start fearing for your favorite character now.

Elias' eyes just spontaneously pop out and roll into Jon's eyesockets like the can in the chef boyardee ad

I'm certain that a big part of the reason why Jon didn't blind himself was that he was terrified of trying then finding that his eyes just heal over or it doesn't work so he's trapped in the magnus institute again except now it's only him stuck there

Text in image: A recipe for open-faced sandwich made by Ibrahim bin al-Mahdi:
Remove the top crust and edges of a whole bread. Spread  its face with binn al-sakarij, slather it with walnut oil, and put it on a brazier until it is thoroughly heated. Spread yolk of soft-cooked eggs on top of the binn and eat it. You may sprinkle it with pounded cheese, which will make it even more delicious.
Ibrahim bin al-Mahdi has a poem describing this sandwich:
What a delicious sandwich on the brazier I made, slathered with binn and walnut oil.
Fragrant and shining, as if the binn I used with ambergris and musk embalmed.
Of nigella seeds I put what it needed, as for fennel, I did sprinkle some.
Text continues: Olive oil I made sure to add, for it gives a luscious coating and a saffroned glow. (36v) Smeared with egg yolk, with cheese sprinkled, like speckled em- broidered silk. As colorful as striped silk it looks, exuding musk and camphor. The taste, luscious as pure honey, for the best aromatic spices I did use.

from the Kitāb al-Ṭabīkh (Book of Cookery) written by Ibn Sayyar al-Warraq in the 10th century
