podcast-hemocytoblast:

TMA season 1, except instead of coping with the feeling of being watched through stubbornly ignoring it altogether, Jon takes the route that he does with many of the Statements early on, where he denies anything supernatural, and instead comes up with a more mundane explanation for why he feels constantly watched and scrutinized: corporate surveillance.

Clearly, Elias must be watching him through the security cameras, waiting to see if he messes up, because he knows that Jon is underqualified for this job! Jon, of course, deals with this suspicion in a very normal way. Throughout work, he talks out loud, directly to Elias, under the assumption that he’s listening, and whenever Martin does anything at all ever, Jon looks directly into the security camera like he’s on The Office.

stocknerd:

Thinking about the ending of the show when John pulls Elias down for a talk/stabbing and Elias almost sounds like he’s going to pull some “I was being controlled; I’m innocent” shit but doubles back to being evil.

“John, is that you?… I was, I was having, [pause for emphasis with smug evil voice] the most wonderful dream.”

No fascinating insights, just love how Elias’ evil is portrayed. Even in his last moments the dude just wants to chugg fear.

redacted-metallum:

Fop surgery. It’s like top surgery but it turns you into a Victorian dandy. Is that anything

hallucinationelias:

thinking about my beloved jonah magnus

ciannaaaaa:

you approach life in a practical way, i approach life in a whimsical and joyous way that holds undertones of dread and fear. we are not the same

cornmagnate:

A very sensible fear

koszmarnybudyn:

Still figuring out my take on Elias, he’s terrible and I love him.

fellshish:

Maybe if he was a little less fuckable we wouldn’t be in this mess

literalfuckingfreak:

congrats on the transition (transition of his eyes from one body to the next(also he is transgender))

Anyway Jonah selfcest is real, you know that man is going to pick new bodies that are fuckable. You know he also loves experiencing everything he possibly can, #YOLO. Obviously Jonah x his future bodies is canon (to me)

statementends:

That’s right I murdered two people and if you kill me everyone tied to the institute will die. Now Jon be a dear and fill out this Return to Work form. Don’t worry about the doctor’s note. Elias Bouchard really is that kind of bureaucrat huh.

greelin:
