tim swears as much as possible specifically when talking to elias, specifically because it makes him let out the most ridiculous sounds of shock and appal everytime.
after enduring a long day of pretty much non-stop tomfoolery from tim, elias let’s out a single, heartfelt “fuck off!” and it destroys both of their worldviews entirely.
tim is absolutely delighted at first, but then he realizes that he now has to live knowing he heard elias bouchard say fuck…but no one will ever believe him. he has zero proof. but also elias has to live with the shame of having broken his 200 year long no cursing streak in front of timothy stoker. so it all evens out, more or less.
