Martin’s “I’ve been reading the s t a t e m e n t s” has the same energy as Jon’s “I cOULD be on drugs!!”
PLEASE SO TRU3 BESTIE
WAIT WHEN DID HE SAY THE SECOND ONE I NEED TO KNOW
@@SolarSeaSlug MAG 83 - Drawing a Blank. In pre-statement he says to Georgie he's not on drugs, and in response to her quite obvious quizzical stare says "What? I cOULD BE on drugs!"
Elias: this mission is very dangerous and you could die
Jon, immediately, with no hesitation: Martin's not coming
Elias the wingman agreeing with him
@@loading7496Mahtin: "wHAT!?"
Same energy as when Kaz said : "There will be a net" in Crooked Kingdom 😂
IM CRUING JUST GOT TO THAT PART HE LITERALLY SAID NO HESITATION “you shouldn’t come” *refuses to elaborate in the hopes he does not have to explain he might have a shred (or more than…..) of worry and care for Martin*
@@cringeworthy4755 I absolutely adore the reference here
*Tim:* I swing both ways. Violently. With an axe.
That is absolutely delightful, thank you!! Gave me a good laugh!!
I love this.
I read this in Tim's voice
Truly a role model
Tim is definitely bring proud to bisexual community. What an icon.
The Slaughter deadass wheeled in a cannon and disrupted the ritual by shooting it. Respect.
i mean, not too different from what they're planning
nah the slaughter wants everyone to kill each other and feel it (human element) if they are all uncanny it just wouldn't be quite right.
*A marvel of technology! An engine of destruction!*
yippee!! destruction!!
There’s a certain elegance to it. Nothing cuts through deception like extreme violence.
Elias : I love all my subordinates. The archivist, Martin, Tom, uhhh.. Queen (?), *looks at smudged writing* and of course Barbie and Dairy
I see no lies here
This is the truth with 0 lies. In fact it's such pure truth it dealt a major blow to the spiral
Gotta love how he only remembers Martin's name 😂
@@justeundonut-moi.7979 Even my sister who's never even listened to this series knows Martin because of how even with all the chaos going on Martin is the one who is doing normal stuff
@@justeundonut-moi.7979 I believe its spelled MAHTIN
Oh he totally is cultivating Martin as a backup Archivist. Sneaky bastard man.
Stinky garbage boy
'So you have a backup if Jon doesn't make it'
Jon is just like "Martin can't go because reasons and its not cause he's precious or anything, he just has to stay cause, uh, he can read"
Elias : Technically I can't stop you, but I heavily advise you from bringing any... rogue elements.
Martin : You cAn just say Tim.
HAHAHAHHAHAHA MARTIN OMG
I love everyone's exasperated sighs upon hearing that they'd need to listen to a tape.
Lol
And just listening to Elias at all lol
@@000Krim р
@@000Krim р
The same sigh I make whenever someone IMs me at work. How dare they make me do my job 😂
y'know Elias talking about how they have to claim their expenses but how they can't do that if they die is probably the most Elias thing he's ever said
Elias still trying awkwardly to be a normal boss
It's so perfect
That line was genius
"I can help, I've been _reading the statements_ " OMG Martin I'm dying
"Yes you have king"
Jon: I think Martin should stay here
Elias: Oh really 👀👀
Me: listening to this in the background
The episode: *gets abstract*
Me: suddenly this has all my attention
“rogue elements” is a fantastic new euphemism for bisexuals.
i like it. an apt description
You make me choke, I was drinking juice
The whole crew then 🤣
🙄
That is a euphemism I'm going to be using
Being known as "rough elemt that swings both ways, violently with an axe" sure is an bisexual goal, you go Joe spooky
I need that on a tshirt
Joe Spooky
Rouge element that swings both ways. Violently. With an ax. Lol 😂
Tim is our bisexual boy
Joe Spooky is the new Glen Coco
The bit about saving receipts to claim expenses is so delightfully disjointed considering the discussion is about stopping the end of the world.
Haven't you realised? The Magnus Archives is secretly a workplace comedy.
It also doesn't count as overtime.
The 15th fear: the Bureaucracy (Elias)
I feel like bureaucracy is definitely the domain of The Web.
@@fruitygarlic3601 It's like the opposite of the web. It's the fear that whoever is pullingthe strings is incompetent and sometimes you have to grab on the web yourself lest you and the rest of the flies and the spider herself fall to your deaths.
@@seardrax527 this thread is hilarious....thank you...I needed this
The 16th fear: an HOA
@@Archiv1st oh, for sure! I don't even live in the USA and I'm afraid of that. 😅
Okay I came back to this because, we know that movies can be made or inspired by entities. So hearing this episode again I'm dead ass sure that "Cats" 2k19 was a Stranger feature. In this essay I will-

god same but with. like. every single one.
@@Peach-mb7uo bruh I still can't tell Jon and Elias apart 😭😔. All the women sound the same to my dumb ear. Its so hard lol.
@@ZeroOhClock its been six months and i still can't tell please help
@@Peach-mb7uo oh boi this does not look good for my chances 👌
@@ZeroOhClock thankfully I could always tell who Daisy was. Occasionally I still get Basira and Melanie mixed up but its okay. Elias and John tho... 😳
E: John Doe... Haha I made a funny
"What about Martin? He should stay behind" ❤❤❤❤❤ Oh, Martin. It's because he doesn't want you to get hurt 😭
I think it's actually part of their "plan" to deal with Elias, but we'll see
@@wakipaki7381 SHHHH. Shshshshsh. Just let me have this.
Jon And Martin gay af for this
@@wakipaki7381uujq
It's either got to do with their secret plan or because Jon and Elias want Martin as a possible backup archivist. I don't think his motive was primarily that Martin doesn't get hurt. Would be terribly out of character as well. Might still be a secondary or tertiary motif.
Wolfgang was just attempting an early version of vocaloid. If he saw Hatsune Miku, he would be proud
Edit: I've been thinking about it and came to the conclusion that vocaloids are a manifestation of the Stranger - I mean, things that look (or sound) almost right, but still somewhat off, to the point of being unsettling
Based
based
LMFAOO
Absolutely lol
I was thinking the same thing lmao
"If you die, you probably won't be able to claim your expenses"
zuzanna tasarz what does he mean PrObAbLy? Can ghosts use currency now or something?!
I love the "I'm sure if you die, you won't be able to claim the expenses." It's such an Office Boss sentence
so many delightful moments in this one. local man has a breakdown because a robot danced. oh hey, it's nice that at least some of them try to stop each other. also "rogue elements.." "you can just say Tim". also Jon, you... display your affection in some intricate ways, don't you. also... tim I really want you to be okay bdkdhdisn
Elias says anything
everyone: *collective sigh*
My favourite part of this episode is the fucking cannons and just the Slaughter being like, well, time to party crash.
I love it when the fears interact with eachother!
elias' reaction to jon saying martin should stay behind is so funny to me, im not sure if hes suspicious of anything or wants martin as a backup archivist (if it works that way idk) or if hes just so into office gossip but its hilarious to me lmao
Okay there's something fascinating going on here with Jon and Martin that I don't see a lot of people talking about so I wanna put it down. MILD SPOILERS in the sense that this is all stuff we know by now, but it might not me 100% clear until the next couple of epsiodes. NO PLOT SPOILERS tho!
We all know now that Martin has a crush on Jon, that's super clear. Jon's also straight up said to Tim that he's listened to ALL of the statements so we know he heard Basira and Melanie talking about it. We also know that "It was Martin's idea" ... whatever they're going to do with Elias. Dasiy said so.
So... even though it's really cute, Jon being protective of Martin and telling him to stay behind... it was Martin's idea. He's pretending to be shocked and affronted. Jon's pretending like he just thought of it to protect him. This was a calculated move against Elias even if we don't quite know what they're planning yet.
BUT THAT'S NOT EVEN THE MOST INTERESTING PART. I'm pretty sure Martin knows everyone knows about his crush at this point. He's not dumb. He knows people, he's insightful. And Jon? Jon heard it discussed in a statement. In the office. Where Elias seems to know everything that's happening. So... they both know, but more importantly, they both know that ELIAS knows. So this move? Jon wanting to protect Martin? Martin hating the idea and railing against it but ultimately doing what Jon asks of him?
They're actively weaponsing their feelings for each other against Elias and I think that's very sexy of them.
Yes!! It seems like they're very aware Elias will be suspicious but chalk it up to a budding office romance and that's such a good play against a guy who is borderline omniscient.
this take >>>>>
"They're actively weaponising their feelings for each other against Elias and I think that's very sexy of them." ?
What the heck is wrong with you?
Keen observation on the rest, I have to say. Kudos.
But that last bit?
Yesssss! If this was on Reddit I’d give you like 5 awards
This is what I love about being so late, someone already put my thoughts together better than I could have. I hadn't even thought about Jon listening to the gossiping between Basira and Daisy, everything else he could be painfully dense at, but that bit is undeniable proof of Martin's crush
I love it when the statements get abstract and dreamy
I get so lost sometimes trying to figure out the setting in the statement
Lmao sorry for replying after three years 💀💀💀
Oh Martin. So ready to run off and save the world, until they distract him with someone who needs helping.
I love that Gertrude's secret plan to stop the Unknowing basically amounts to "blow it up". I'll be honest, I really wasn't expecting such an unsubtle approach.
I mean the gist is that this episode is that Idonotknowyou works in subtlety and doesn't have a way to combat an unsubtle attack.
I have an ungood feeling that with Tim was foreshadowing :(
Timothy Stoker
Died 2017
Went down swinging
What the hell.
Sorry you had to be spoiled from some comment @@nightowl8477
I've honestly missed listening to Gertrude's statements, it was a nice surprise to hear her voice again. Though I'm hoping to all gods that may exist that it won't come down to Tim biting the dust.
I hate to break it to you but-
@@Theo-pj7ig when will people stop leaving spoilery comments
When the characters interact like they're a team, I get so much seretonin :) Character relationships are my favorite part of any story
as a Hungarian hearing a statement set in my city made me almost cry I'm!!! I can't believe people know we exist BUT I gotta say. Budapest as a concept didn't exist until 1873 when the cities of Pest, Buda and Óbuda ("old Buda") were merged together into one so really there's no way he could've said Budapest back in uh, 1787?? awesome episode nonetheless djdndj especially coz I've been to the Várszínház more than once but I'll keep an extra eye out the next time I go 👀
Már pár epizóddal korábban a magyar konyha említése is boldoggá tett😂
@@riekab8119 jah visítottam xdd
Ugyee :)
haha :DD magyar tma szekta gyűlés
Én is! 😁😁😁
this VIOLENTLY brought back memories of a month-long researching binge on the Mechanical Turk. ten year old me thought it was the coolest thing i had ever come across, fourteen year old me is bloody terrified
I love how exhausted everyone is to be dealing with Elias. They all sound like they've been blackmailed into the room and would rather be reinacting The Orient Express but are putting up with him. And then there's Elias himself going "Well, I have a few pointers for your plan to prevent the end of the world, but you're doing great kids 😊"
The fact that the way to stop the unknowing is just violence is hilarious. There’s no symbolism in it, rip and tear until it is done.
Wish Jon and Helen would Just Be Friends
okay, fine - Jon & Martin are probably gonna be a thing.
Quite right
wym fine lmfao was it not clear a few episodes ago when they said "he's got it baaaddd"
I thought Jon was Ace tho?
@@yeetusdeletus84 He's asexual biromantic
@@yeetusdeletus84 asexual means no sexual attraction, but he can still want a romantic relationship. if he didnt want a romantic relationship, hed be asexual and aromantic (hense the terms ace and aro)
Elias: "Thank you all for coming."
Everyone: *enthusiasm noises*
janssens account does sound like he was having a stroke
so i guess the unknowing puts everyone in a constant state of having a stroke
The unknowing is more like makes you lose your capacity of recognizing stuff and telling it apart from other stuffs
@@ernestoernestez6537 yeah, from what i hear, that's what having a stroke is like. your brain loses the ability to recognize any objects as what they are
that or dissociating
Pokie oh, sorry. I had no idea. Thanks for explaining!
Elias is growing on me and "if you die I'm afraid you probably won't be able to claim your expenses" helped a lot with that
Elias: it’s very VERY dangerous and only Jon has the mind to stay sane
Jon: martins not coming
Martin: wha-
Elias: *instant understanding* jobs right
The slaughter facing the stranger has the vibes of a complete chaos in the face of the unknown.
And Tim swinging randomly at stranger's at the unknowing also has the vibes of complete chaos at the face of the unknown.
So I love it.
So the slaughter was trying to stop the stranger ?
seems like it
makes me wonder if any other entities r gonna show up to disrupt the unknowing ritual this time
@@SS-kv3iw Yes, the Eye.
Seems like Entities don't want other Entities to finish their rituals. And now apparently it's the Eye that's moving to stop the unknowing this time
@@klltsun_2576 When Jon was kidnapped and Michael appeared, he also said he doesn't want The Stranger to complete the ritual. So The Spiral also wants to stop it.
As a lady of a certain age, I really do have a crush on Gertrude. I think my wife will understand!
ur so real for that. Introduce TMA to ur wife and maybe u can both crush on Gertrude together. We do love a mysterious, stone cold and dead old lady archivist shes so sexy
I swear if something awful happens to Tim I won't be able to handle it
Welp
@@aly2833 w e l p i n d e e d
The plan to disrupt the ritual is, as Daisy said, appropriately straightforward. What I can't tell is what they're slipping past Elias, or exactly what Jon has in mind for Tim.
Listen if Tim dies I riot end of story he NEEDS to find joy again.... imperative
im sorry

Jon: are you going to keep it together?
Tim: Nope, I'm going to make sure it all *goes to pieces* ::double finger guns::

@@birdbrainiac might've
Uhhhh guys I think I found a manifestation of the slaughter
this is no hate to gertrude or her voice actress but why is it that i always zone out more when she's the one reading the statement than the others? it's weird like i've gone back so many times to relisten to parts of this but i still have no idea what was said... gertrude and adhd brain don't mix i guess. or it could just be the style of writing in this specific statement who knows
I love her voice but i feel exactly the same, i get distracted way more than with the others, i also notice that marti's voice is the easiest for me to listen because i hardly get distracted
I have the same problem. Her voice is very soothing to me and I accidentally drift off
Paula Blue same!! i swear marten always has my full attention no matter what he's saying lmao, sometimes i wish he could teach my psych classes, then i might atleast pass one subject this year ajshdhgs
I have the EXACT SAME ISSUE. Gertrude + my potentially ADD/ADHD brain = brain tangent about spice racks and cremation
I love her voice but she sounds like she hosts bingo tournaments.
do i generally dislike gertrude? yes. do i find her voice very comforting? also yes
I looove stories that are so abstract, like that one episode with the man that wasn't on the stairs
im from hungary, and i remember learning about kempelen von wolfgang in history class. i really like the idea of him being a possible avatar of the slaughter ahahahdjshjd
Jon: Martin is staying behind.
Martin: What?
Elias: Sounds good to me. :)
Everyone is just so DONE with Elias and his bullshit and I live for it
Completely besides the point but,
my cat hates it when I am listening to the Magnus Archives ( pretty sure it's the backround music)
Or maybe ur cat KNOWS something
They're just jealous of The admiral
Mine comes and sits next to me
The overwhelming concern he has for Martin makes sense but Martin is also missing the very clear TRUST he has in him. He is entrusting the safety of the archive itself to Martin. Its very touching ^_^
I was laying here with my eyes closed during part of this and have absolutely no idea how awake I was. Usually I’m able to tell if I was half-asleep during something because things stop making sense, but I am genuinely uncertain here. I could have slept through most of the statement, or been awake for all of it, and I’d believe either possibility
Someone will die in this season.
Of fun!
monochromScript They’re going to have a blast!
im guessing tim, so much foreshadowing :(
@@beltaya276 Same
No shit sherlock
So, couldn't they ask The Slaughter for help again?
It clearly isn't fond of The Stranger and has disrupted the ritual before, surely there's an avatar out there willing to bring forth a bit of carnage to the party yet again...
maybe it's a timing thing, they have no leads on it and the unknowing is happening soon
Elias sounded way too giddy to have bought into it. Also... damn, I love his voice.
"If you die you won't be able to claim your expenses" fucking hell Elias🤣🤣
JonMartin caring for one another ~
i swear to god if tim dies this season i WILL cry,,,
spoilers!!
update: i cried
@@dendakrmelova1201 fuck the warning was to late for me 🥺
I would kill to listen in on Gertrude's gorilla heist.
The way Gertrude said "appropriate ordinance" 😂😁
Seeing as this is The Stranger, confusion is an obvious thing, but with what Gertrude said, did The Slaughter, or one of their avatars at least, stop The Stranger's ritual? The soldier fired the cannon, which stopped the performance, and then Gertrude mentioned it was an Avatar of the Slaughter. I suppose the entities don't entirely want the others to finish their rituals before they do, but I still find it odd.
Alternate titile: The 1700s Tiki Room Goes Wrong
I understand that this is a Stranger/Slaughter episode, but I felt like there were some Spiral elements in it too... although, the I Do Not Know You and the It Isn't What It Is can sometimes look similar. I reckon they work together sometimes given how easily the Stranger's blood orange could bleed into the Spiral's mango yellow
Man, those nonsensical descriptions during the Unknowing and the battle with the Slaughter were incredible. Really drives home the idea of warped perception and witnessing something no human mind can comprehend and which no words can accurately describe.
I fear for Tim so badly, but it's like a trainwreck- can't stop watching.
Jon absolutely listened to the gossip that Martin has a crush on him, he's way too protective of him
One of the underrated youtube channels. Love your work.
My theory from this episode and what we know so far:
I think that the reason why Martin and Melanie will stay behind is because they've planned for them to do something against Elias/the Eye while Elias will be focused on John and the rest trying to stop the Stranger's ritual and, thus, he will be distracted. They've already established that he doesn't in fact see and know everything at the same time they're happening, so they'll use this opportunity to do something against him.
Other than that nothing much else in this episode, things were pretty straight-forward with the info we were getting, only thing that bugs me is that the name Wolfgang sounded somehow familiar and I couldn't remember if it is because we've heard it before in this series or if it's because it reminds me of Wolfram, a name I know from my studies :3
ahaha reeeeally not a fan of the sheer number of death flags tim is throwing up ;)))
So that was a little peak to what the unknowing would look like?
That's what they meant by "changing the fabric of reality"?
God can you imagine a ritual of another being succeding? A world of The Vast, or The Lonely? Or The Flesh and Hunt?
Horrible, horrible.
Night at the Museum: bomb the doppelgangers.
Elias, a known supernatural entity with enhanced knowledge and sight abilities: You're *really* gonna want to *not* on the whole Tim front guys. Seriously, leave him behind.
The Team, with basically none of the above: n O
(I have a feeling this is going to go drastically downhill in a Tim related way)
Is this the first statement we see before 1818? One that isn't written as a letter?
I believe so! the events described by this journal entry happend 31 years before the founding of the magnus institute.
Deep down, I know John not wanting Martin in was only play pretend in their plan against Elias but my gay heart is crying anyway.
And maybe John choose Martin to be the one who stay behind because he want to be sure that Martin is safe. We can have both.
They already confirmed Jon is ace, so it's ace love if anything.
@@darcieclements4880 ace people can have romantic attraction still 🤨
Gertrude and Jons va have the same last name? I was checking out the description and I just through it was interesting
Yea! Geutrudes VA is Jon's mother!! I believe Leighner's va is Jon's dad too
Late but yeah! she's his mom, also I think his dad played jurgen leitner.
Whole family has epic voice skills
I love how you can hear how uncomfortable Gertrude is as she describes The Unknowing
"It stood up" is such an underrated line 😨
Knowing what we know now about rituals, Elias being this nonchalant about a possible apocalypse makes a lot more sense...
Jon is worried about Martin he's in loooove.
The discussion about claiming expenses when we’re talking about a trip meant to LITERALLY SAVE THE WORLD and which might lead to everyone DYING is the most hilarious thing ever. This podcast has me dead with its pieces of normalcy within the complete batshit-craziness of it all.
"All I can say for sure is that when the Unknowing begins, I certainly don’t want to be inside it." well its gonna be inside you
The cruel irony of Gertrude's addendum, knowing what her eventual fate is... it kills me
I just realized... Daisy's accent is very Gehrman from Bloodbourne, and there's a part of me that wonders if that was an intentional choice on the part of whomever was responsible for casting, or just a weird piece of happenstance...
"It's only 80% complete, but the legs are just for show, anyway."
THEY GOT A B&B FOR A THREE HOUR DRIVE??? WHAT IS WRONG W BRITISH PEOPLE
Well, they want to rest up before the attack
And I don't think they are sure of when the attack will actually take place.
@Leo Morris In defence of weird British people, we generally walk everywhere, so three hours is a long time to be in the car. I used to go down to Cornwall every year - that 6 hour drive felt like the end of the world, sometimes.
Anyhow, we Brits can't go very long without complaining about things else we keel over, so those three hours would be horrendous.
(Edit - I should probably mention that I'm being sarcastic, before anyone takes me seriously.)
@@fiddlesticksmeow6269 it took me a moment to realize that you meant 6 hours in *total*, not 6 hours straight. Because I've been stuck in the car for 6 hours straight (not counting 3 or 4 15-min bathroom breaks and pitstops), and it's h e l l.
3 hours straight, eh. It ain't so bad. It's not great, but it's doable without losing sanity. (It's roughly 1.5 medium-sized states worth of distance)
@@thesewinggeekmiri9029 Indeed, 6 hours total! With breaks, of course. There are plenty of service stations, thank goodness. May I recommend the Gloucester ('Gloss-teh', because we can't spell our own place names) service station? It's nice; they sell noodles.
These days I get the train places because I really can't sit in the car for that long without feeling very ill. I suppose I don't drive, so perhaps it's a passenger issue?
my adhd struggles so much with gertrude's voice idk why??? i just zone out so many times rip but then jon comes back
Need some sleep maybe?
Weeeeee it’s all coming together!!
WAAH another hungary rep !! This is like the 4th time , thx jonny !
10:30 when Gertrude reads "from an old friend" does anyone else hear that odd noise in the background directly after? Is it just her breathing or something else? A shift of papers turning? Hard to tell. It sounds like someone in the background says "sike!" Like it's a joke. 😂 Does the eye have a sense of humor?
I hear it!! It sounds like faint scratching to me
