#Same with Elias

[tropicalcontinental]

More crossover stuff 💥💥💥 + that one "piss off bitch boy" joke is so funny to me (Elias tries to look into Gertrude's mind and receives said response) and I feel like Collin would do it to him too

this stinker, Tma character sheet #6!

Being into podcasts and having s*** voice recognition means

- not being able to differentiate between Jon and Elias who are played by two different people

- Not being able to differentiate between Sasha and not Sasha who are played by two different people

- Not being able to differentiate between Alice and Norris who are played by two different people

- And being able to distinguish Arther, John, Kellen, Eddie, Dr Jeffrey, Kayne, The trader, Faust, Wallace, The Butcher, Oscar, and MARIE??? from eachother DESPITE ALL OF THEM BEING PLAYED BY THE SAME PERSON

"Old man yaoi"

Here and then I think about Elias being a genuinely boring person to 99% of the world by the time it's the 2000s and all his circle of Good Society Gentlemen Horny for their weird Academic friend obsessed with Ghosts Stories are dead.

Not just boring, but easily dismissed, as well ("waste of a suit"), ("A dull little man" // "Gertrude was the one who scared me").

And I don't know, it always drives me a little insane in the BEST way. I love it. I love that his little joys in life are spreadsheets, filing, The Horror Stories of Other People that Are Not Him Thank You, and cake. I love that he is mild, that he looks utterly inoffensive, that he's passive and only shows glimpses of how Cruel and /how much he enjoys being Cruel/ in very specific situations (1. i have all the power and everybody in the room knows, 2. They want to see an evil man i'll show them an evil man 3. EVERYTHING I WORKED TOWARDS FOR CENTURIES IS SET INTO MOTION I AM WINNING)

It makes it extra tasty, with that additional external point of view from characters, that Jon explicitely says that Elias is the most knowledgeable man he knows when it comes to paranormal: Jon actively seeked out Elias enough to be aware of that. It's also delicious to have him say "Elias is a hard man to pin down" because it means that Jon RECOGNIZES that Elias is not just his boring, inefficient superior; that there are myriads of other things he's yet to uncover about him and all.

I think it's nice for us all boring people to have represention in villainy. I said it over on bluesky and all but I know in my heart his perfectly tailored three-piece suits are all different shades of grey (Ah,,), except for the black ones that are for fancy events, and the "extravagant" navy blue ones for "fun" events like Institute parties.

he has inside jokes with himself with his cufflinks and that's basically it.

SEASON 3!!!!!!!!!

Jon is wearing random borrowed clothes... Not like he has time to stylize proffesional looking outfits.

Have some fresh Elias but I didn't change his outfit. Maybe I'm getting lazy lmao

I just made Tim more angry lookin sorry

Michael is the same as in last season and Helen will be in the next one!

a nuance that gets a bit lost in martin 'murder' blackwood is that while he's definitely not against a good killing, it's more of a fun couple's activity rather than true heartfelt passion, you know?

i mean, twice he's had the opportunity to have Jonah get shanked, and he foils them, even though he wants the guy dead. Like, murder is always an option, but he usually tries other, less direct methods first - in fact id say that his trying to be clever and moral still leading up to the end of the world is exactly what drives him to say, ok well fuck it then, let's get our murder on

ART vs The ARTIST

"Oh soph you only draw one hairstyle--" HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED IT'S THE ONLY HAIR I KNOW. ALL I KNOW IS THE BISEXUAL HAIRCUT. IT'S ALL I GOT, THIS IS ALL I GOT

[quinn-fucks-shit-up]

I can't be the only one concerned about the computer gays in the context of the One Other Guy we know who was trapped in a computer who didn't have a very nice time of it

A huge part of the appeal of LonelyEyes for me is that Elias never lied to Peter.

I mean he did, of course, but unlike any of his other relationships he never pretended to not be evil, toxic and a manipulator. James Wright met Peter with the bright warming colors some animals have to announce they are poison and Peter somehow (the abusive way the Lukas family raises their kids likely) went for it.

Even in cannon Peter remains Eliss friend. Yes, he wants to kill Elias but only when Elias proposes it as part of their bet. There's a genuine chance Peter had not even considered Elias would've actually died even if Peter had won (and let's be honest he likely wouldn't, Elias is not one to bet his own life without a contigency plan).

Hell, we have no idea how long he did know but it is heavilly implied that Peter knew and had access to Jonah Magnus original body for a long time already. Elias trusted him to not end it.

There's the closest Elias gets to respecting someone and there's also the biggest example on the ways being raised to be part of the Lonely fucked Peter up completly.

oh my god it feels like forever. um

[nineraeix]

inspired by this art, I’m so normal about him

[bardic-irritation]

maybe unpopular opinion but I'm kinda loving Elias so far? like as a Person I would hate him but as a Character? kicking my feet and giggling everytime he makes a stupid joke or menaces someone. slayyyy old man. terrorizing your employees is so good for the Plot.
