It’s Jonathan Sims appreciation hour.

You can reblog this at any hour because every hour is Jonathan Sims appreciation hour.

Once, when I started listening to a TMA episode and Jonny Sims said the episode number and name intro, I imagined it was Jonathan Sims saying it and Martin playing the violin in the background, and I haven’t been able to get that image out of my head since.

Elias Moments from the new episode:

“knock knock :)”

you can HEAR the smile in his voice

“nothing escapes my notice”

“I like to keep an eye out”

“how old is the birthday boy?”

Elias: “did somebody mention cake?” ; Tim: “Uh, yeah. You did.” ; Elias: “Yes I did, didn’t I.”

ruining the surprise cake because nOtHiNg eScApeS mY nOtiCE

when they’re singing happy birthday and everybody else says “dear Jon” and Elias says “dear A r c h i v i s t”

“he wished for a little bit of peace and quiet”

Alright, so I’m listening to The Magnus Archives and the fact that Daisy canonically calls Elias a “weird little freak” to his face (ep. 82) is so funny to me

GERTRUDE VS. ELIAS [a transcript from the q&a]

Jonny

After the tape stopped, turned out Gertrude was too much of a badass to die from just a single gunshot. She lunges! At Elias! Elias screams, uh, like... a scared child, and fires wildly, three times. MISSES! Gertrude gets a machete, from under the desk—

Alex

Cackling.

Jonny

Cackling! Uh, lunges at him. But ah, two more shots to the chest, and Gertrude... finally goes down.

bonus:

Alex

Tell you what... in ten years we can remaster it, and Gertrude shot first.
