*elias voice* i want another divorce 

Canon Elias: mastermind; eldritch horror; incredible manipulator; very spooky This Elias: *That* and ALSO an angry housewife

elias said gay rights but only for himself

The way he says "Jon." in an annoyed and tired tone to get into character is just fantastic

this is how elias spent his time in jail

oH nO I hOpe no AVATARS KIDNAP my ARCHIVIST

“Read that statement Jon...” “oohhh...” “Read it nice and slow” “ooOOOOHH NOO”

Imagine Elias saying "vibe check" in that tone of voice right before killing Leitner

the fact that jonny is absolutely losing in the background makes me SOB also love that peter and elias are getting a divorce. they deserve it

i like that he says gay and trans rights both in his voice and elias's voice

3:34 "There is no such thing as a good cow." [EXTENDED SOUNDS OF GENERAL OUTRAGE]

when he said "there is no such thing as a good cow" and everyone FUCKING BOOED HIM....... i love this fandom

He: “did you ever hear the tragedy of Dath Plageious the Wise” Jonny: *WHEEZE*

I would love to hear him say the “I fucking hate Juergen leitner“ speech

jonny cackling in the background is just *chef's kiss*

hope this happens again so i can ask him to say "and then he turned into pickle, jon!! funniest shit ive ever seen"

I can’t get Elias wearing heelys just rolling around everywhere out of my head now

leitnerpiper69 a true balls to the wall god amongst men........ who are u.......

Honestly some of the best parts in this aren’t even the lines that were given “I am also sorry that’s your name.” “That’s from LeitnerPiper69 _NICE”_ “Lovecraft can take it, he’s dead.” “...And no he doesn’t.”

Bruuhhh now I want him to say “Being gay isn’t a choice, it’s a game, and I’m winning,” -captain holt, B99

The most cursed bit is conveniently at 4:20

Ben: about to read Ben: 👌

"there is no such thing as a good cow" *crowd boos*

"...by Lonely-at-sea. He will be!"

i cannot get over the waves of agony from the crowd starting at 4:24

2:20 just noticed jonny (i'm fairly sure its jonny anyway) laughing his ass off in the background thank you for my life

leitnerpiper69 is a god

The one downlike is from Peter Lukas himself

"i want another divorce" the crowd goes wild, everyone is loving it

“That’s from micheal” “Which one” "One of like 4 I guess"

Honest to God he looks like how I imagined Peter... NEVER would have thought Elias's voice would have such a beautiful mustache

14:57 okay everyone booing at Elias, while Jonny cackles in the distance, sums up TMA pretty well

I hope this happens again so I can ask him to say “I’m a savage classy bougie ratchet sassy moody nasty actin stupid what’s happening what’s happnin I’m a savage”

no dislikes, this is the timeline getrude died for

17:58 "Oh no, I am in great pain while dying, as Martin has just stabbed me with a knife" hits differently post finale huh

I love his way to get into the voice is to just say "Jon"

love how the crowd gets more and more indignant after each sentence in 4:20

the way he just progressively gets more and more into character as the quotes go

Ah yes my favorite mechanims lyrics, "yei nya nya yog sothoth"

Absolutely delighted that Jonny decided *he* would be the rowdiest one in attendance of line readings for a character he created.

*Tim I don't understand this, it just says ok Boomer?* *Yeah it does!* Thank you mister lebeau for the Elias Tim interaction here amazing spectacular

LEITNERPIPER69

Tag yourself, I'm Jonny offscreen absolutely dying

Can't believe nobody signed as "hello Jon, apologies for the deception..."

1. everyone just took this opportunity for catharsis i love it 2. i love?? his giggle??? idk why its just really very cute lol

If they want to raise money, Rusty Quill could release a tape of just Ben talking in his Elias voice for 30 minutes and and sell them for $50 each. They would put them on the store at 8 and be sold out by noon.

After watching this for a few minutes I have become an avatar of the slaughter

The 15th fear is Gertrude Robinson

Bless you, kind sir. I want this too play at my funeral. I can’t Elias and Peter are getting divorced for the sixth time.

All Jonny moments compiled for your enjoyment: 2:20 Jonny losing it in the background 6:45 "You're butchering it!" 10:30 "Boo all you want, there's no stopping it!" 15:00 Jonny laughing maniacally in the back 16:15 More faint laughter from Jonny Let me know if I missed any!! (Can't tell if brief chuckle at 17:39 is Jonny or not)

When you realize that the voice of an uber-sexy villain comes out of an adorable teddy bear in glasses.

Ben saying something as Elias: *👌 *

I’m so glad that real voice actors also sometimes have to use a phrase they’re used to saying to get into a voice for a character. I always get self conscious when I do it before a DnD session or whatever, but now I can say it just means I’m being a professional!

i can’t look at ben without thinking of the badly edited catboy picture

love that mcelroy "you know ;)"

13:34 somebody PLEASE edit this right before the pipe murder noise, you know the one.

Honestly Jonny's cackles in the background give me life, he laughs so loud

I like to imagine this is Annabelle messing with him gkdj

I love how Ben says gay and trans rights in the Elias voice, and then says it in his normal voice because yes

Mike Lebou in the background "YEAH IT DOES >:)" added 10 years to my life

4:20 i can’t believe the tma stans let me get into this goddamn podcast, let alone the cast, without a warning. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHAT IS GOING ON

"Lovecraft can take it, he's dead." Will forever live rent free in my head.

If this happens again, someone has to make him read the lyrics to WAP

My favorite ones are where you can hear Jonny's laugh in the background with everyone else

13:44 Even the Eye, who watches over and knows everything, cannot understand Gen Z humor

No one made him admit that Martin is Babey? Sad.

"That's from LeitnerPiper69, nice!"

LEITNERPIPER69 YOU _MADLAD_

I love how his responses to the crowd get slowly more in character until the crowd seems slightly scared of him towards the end

I love how EVERYONE booed for the “there is no. Such. Thing. As a good cow.” one, for good reason too

Jon laughs so loud in the background it's boosting my serotonin

WHY WAS THE "MAMMA MIA" SO SINCERE

He’s got such a good villain voice it’s great

this was just one gut punch after another. thank you

I was literally thinking "it would've been so much fun to make him quote one of the funny-out-of-context lines from Hamlet" and a few minutes later he said, "what a piece of work is man". I am a five-minute prophet.

"y'ai nya nya" red signal furry version

jonny losing it in the background makes this so much better (also his snarky comments lmao) edit: AND BRYN

I love that when he's reading these, for some of them you can SEE the mental buffering-

I’m sobbing and I can’t tell from what emotion

oh nO! i am in great pain! while dying! as Martin ( *Martin!* ) has just stabbed me with a *knife!*

i love whoever it was who made ben say corypheus’s line from dragon age inquisition. bless you, whoever you are

9:38 "What a piece of work is man" is from Hamlet, act 2 scene 2.

6:30 so i listened to The Bifrost Incident for the first time a few days ago and thought while listening to Red Signal "hmmm, this chanting sounds familiar, i wonder why?" flash forward to last night when my brain supplied, "didnt Ben say something that sounded kind of like it in an incorrect quote video?" which leads me here. i consulted the Spotify lyrics while listening to this, and sure enough, i was RIGHT. it was a perfect match! but what solidified it for me was Jonny in the background going "YOU'RE BUTCHERING IT!" at 6:45. he would only have said that if he was involved with its conception. thank you for coming to me TED talk

That’s from “lonely at sea”... he _will_ be

this is the most cursed thing i've ever seen,i love it

does anyone know what jonny says at 10:30 ish?? i need to hear what he says about his Martin Crimes

"alright ben, what do ya wanna d-" "I WANNA READ STUFF OUT AS ELIAS AGAIN! :D"

12:52 Minecraft 13:12 Kidnapping

HE READS THE INTRO TO RED SIGNAL YES THANK YOU

how did we not end up with "the tragedy of darth plagueis the eyes"

*my longest yeah boiiiiiiiii ever*

I feel like 17:50 is a direct response from Martin after 3:35

almost clicked off at around 4:24 i hate it so much

2:22 you can hear Jonny laughing in the audience

god its been years i somehow still have this entire video committed to memory

I heard the pika pika and immediately became violent

I don't know what I love the most, what he's actually saying or the "names" of the people who sent them in XD

0:43 OG Elias makes a comeback

That is an absolutely fascinating moustache, and any Elias fanart that doesn't feature it is now inaccurate in my mind
