Jonathan Sims, Knower of All Knowledge, and still can't make a decision on his own

———

[ID: A drawing of Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood from the Magnus Archives, sat back to back. Jon is a brown man with mid length grey hair, wearing a green sweater. Martin is a fat white man with ginger hair tied in a tail in the back, and frosted white at the bangs and ends. He's wearing a pastel jumper. Jon is reading a book and Martin's on his phone. In green and blue text bubbles, their conversation is as follows:

Martin: "What are we thinking for dinner?"

Jon: "Anything is fine with me."

Martin: "Pizza?"

Jon: "No."

Martin: "Tacos?"

Jon: "Not that."

Martin: *silence*

[ID: A landscape-oriented digital illustration of Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood kissing in a green moor. Jonathan is a thin Pakistani man with long deep brown curly hair and a full brown beard. He sits on a large rock leaning forward and upward to kiss Martin. Jon wears a floor length red skirt which is flared out around him, on his feet he wear red high-heeled leather boots. His top is a ballooning light pink blouse with a suit collar and black tie with a yellow eye decal, on his head is a yellow bandana tied under his chin, he wears rectangular glasses. Visible on his arm is a series of starburst scars, one of his hands reaches up to rest on Martin’s back. Martin is leaning down to kiss him with both of his hands behind his back clutching a bouquet of flowers. He is a fat white man with wavy blonde hair and rounded square glasses. He wears a red collared shirt with a deep V-neck, a brown oversized aviator jacket with a fluffy collar, flare jeans with rain cloud decals on the pockets and bottoms cuffs, and ornate brown Oxford shoes. Behind the pair more hills are visible with black and white cows grazing and a peek of the ocean, large billowing clouds frame them.]

Pov you interrupted date night

[samwise1548]

Feeling emo about "I see you, Jon." Cuz I don't think either of them were expecting that reaction at all. Jon in the depths of the loss of his humanity, and Martin having given up on hope entirely. Neither of them expected a statement that felt so honest but sounded so simply true in its solidity. "Martin, tell me what you see," static surrounding Jon's command. To be answered with "I see you." I could cry.

When Minkowski hugs Eiffel in Ep31 Sécurité, she just grabs hold of him without making a sound, and the listener only knows about the hug because of the "oof" noise Eiffel makes in reacting to having "the wind knocked straight out of him", and the script directions say that Minkowski has "tears silently streaming down her face", and Eiffel is the one who directly acknowledges the hug verbally ("Don't apologise for hugging"). If all we had was Minkowski's side of the interaction, we probably wouldn't know that they hugged. 

When Eiffel hugs Minkowski in Ep54 The Watchtower, he first tells her "C'mere, give us a hug!", and he makes a happy sound of effort as he squeezes her, and Minkowski - under the influence of Pryce's restraining bolt - doesn't seem to have any reaction at all, which Eiffel doesn't appear to notice. Once again, if all we had was Minkowski's side of the interaction, we wouldn't know that they hugged. 

The question of 'in what ways is the hug made audible?' feels much more significant in audio than it would in any another medium, and I do think it reflects something about these characters and their willingness to be open with their affection. Minkowski "grabs him and hugs him" hard enough to knock the wind out of him, but she does so silently. In a somewhat similar but also very different moment of reunion, Eiffel "embraces her" and he's not quiet as he does it. There's something about how Communications Officer Eiffel is always the one who verbalises their physical affection, whether or not he's the one who initiated the hug. The closest Minkowski gets to verbally acknowledging a hug is through an apology; Eiffel is the one who makes the hugs real for the listener.
