    Michael's appearances are both terrifying and hilarious. Just, "there's nobody here" and him going ,with that slow voice of his, "yes, there is". And, "did the archivist not tell you about me?" "no?" "good." If he didn't feel so much like a "not-ally" to Jon and the others, I would look forward to his appearances a lot more than I already do (which is already quite a lot).

And I kind of think that since we've heard from Elias that they're actually about the same level of intelligence and kind of think alike that Jon can also see that and hates that Martin can be so,,, Martin, while he's stuck as himself.

      I know it's an older comment thread, but I'm stating for the record that lawful neutral is not the same as true neutral... since the other option that this statement is meant to say Elias is True Neutral feels wrong-- unless it's a spoiler-broaching statement 😆
      Good/Neutral/Evil crossed with Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic absolutely gets you a lawful neutral option, which perhaps makes sense for mystery man Elias.
