[Winterstruck] deleted scenes - Julia and Magnusson
This is actually two scenes that were ultimately cut. Both were variations on trying to convey similar information. Some of what follows is not cannon, but it does give you a little more about Magnusson.

Things My Dog Destroyed - part 3
In the ongoing saga of ‘What Will Freya Chew Next?’ we were doing pretty well…
