I personally think more people would write hymns/songs for the Cult of the Lamb

Not like fan songs (those are cool and all but not what I'm talking about), but like hymns the followers would sing during the sermons and stuff

I'm talking songs that sing their praises and preach about their deadly sword killing the Bishops. Songs passed down from generation to generation until they're just commonplace

Like little kids learn one of the songs to sing at special ceremonies or school events. Older people hum the songs while working. Some followers learn to ply the piano and they learn those songs first.

I dunno, maybe it’s just the fact that I grew up Mormon, but I think all religions should have songs

Yes, this is my way of saying I'm writing hymns for my AU

I like exploring Aym and Baal’s characters while they are just hanging together as brothers without Narinder for the first time.

Because they haven't been away from the guy who raised them in, like, basically a thousand years. They need some time to just be brothers together and mortal

I also think this would cause tension because all of the sudden they don't know how to act together because they've never had time together on their own as brothers

I dunno, just Aym and Baal learning to be actual siblings outside of Narinder is so interesting to me

I'm starting a little "journal" of sorts as a way to figure out the way the different races in my world for my original story Second Time's the Charm (STtC for short). The journal is very much inspired by Gravity Falls's journals but mine will be slightly different

This journal will follow the story of a researcher who washes up on the shores of one of the countries and they will wander around taking notes and observing all they see. This person will be from our world/continents and so we'll be able to follow them more easily

Our researcher is named Alberdo A. Wondreberg from England in 1637 (which I'm just pretending translates well into my little world's calendar... the story starts in 1292 Second Age, so we're pretending that this makes sense). He was on his way to research the plants and animals in South America when his ship was caught in a storm. Suddenly he finds himself in a strange world with strange creatures that are far more interesting than what he was going to research originally.

Follow Alberdo's research as he discovers what secrets lie in the places he visits

A comment on the recent chapter I posted for my AU made me feel so seen, I guess is the way to say it

I am quite obviously neurodivergent (diagnosed inattentive ADHD), so I accidentally put a lot of myself into Aym while writing. He had basically a panic attack + overstimulated melt down. Someone in the comments pointed out that it was a panic attack and I was like "whoa, wait, he had basically what I did that one time"

Tw: panic attack mention

Story is I went to the newly opened aquarium in my area (this was around 2021-2022 I think) with my family who were in from out of town. Thing about me is that I hate aquariums. Aquatic animals freak me out so I was already on edge. Then we went into the ray petting room + bird area. I have trauma relating to birds so I was even more on edge. There were a lot of people in there so it was loud and echoing off of the walls + the sound of the birds made me overstimulated and I spiraled into a panic attack.

Aym had something similar, but, yunno, he was in a new place and thought the people he loved weren't around so he was freaking out.

So now I'm putting more and more of myself into him ughhh I didn't mean to but now he's my favorite blorbo. Thank you, Ao3 commenter, for helping me realize that

Hi, just want to say this now:

Unsolicited art advice is NOT appreciated

I am comfortable in my artstyle and I don't fucking care about anatomy

I have a deep love for rubberhose animation and it has inspired a lot of my artstyle

(along side many other talented artists I've seen in my 18 years of life, but that's beside the point)

So any notes you have on my anatomy do not matter to me

Do not, and I repeat, DO NOT give me any advice out of no where. If I ask, sure! But if I haven't asked, then keep your opinion to yourself

Because it's rude. Even if you say "oh no hate, no offense, no ill will" or whatever, it is rude.

I want to establish this boundary now because I've already gotten one comment on a recent art post

Btw, this applies to my writing too

Funniest thing to see was three people have a mini conversation on Her Last Days about golden skull necklaces and I thought it was hilarious

Just something to clear the air:

Eloise's letter at the end was the reason why the Lamb believes only in prolonging life instead of eternal life and resurrections. They have only given two people skull necklaces (as of now) and any golden skulls they have were promptly sold to someone else (I haven't decided yet) because the Lamb doesn't want people to suffer eternally like they do.

That's why the Bishops aren’t described as having golden skulls and why they didn't just bring Eloise back since they loved her so much. It's out of respect to her that they don't do resurrections

Anyways, keep saying funny shit in my comments, I love seeing it

Watching Inuyasha again (I never finished it but it's technically a rewatch where I am), and I think Inuyasha (the character) would make a good big brother

I mean, the way he treats Sota (Kagome's younger brother) is SO big brother coded. PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this

*this post was written after watching "Terror of the Ancient Noh Mask"

Ok, so, the way he treats kids in his own era is ALSO big brother-coded

Like, sure, he's a dick to Shippo and stuff, but that's just how big siblings are. As a big sibling myself, I can attest to bullying my younger brothers on a regular basis

But, aside from bullying Shippo, he was devastated when he thought Shippo and Kagome were dead (yes, I'm aware it was mostly like "ooohhhh Kagome don't leave me wahhhhh" but he was also upset about Shippo, trust)

Anyways, this is my propaganda for "make Inuyasha a big brother NEOW"

just finished writing some memories for Narinder to recover over the course of the story and I am thriving.

specifically, I wrote down a cute little scene where Narinder finally accepts Leshy as part of his family when Leshy shows up as a baby and then i wrote a scene between Narinder and Heket as teenagers being little shits

I am not to the point where I can put these into the story, but I wrote them down mostly so I wouldn't forget. highly recommend writing cute sibling scenes between the Bishops before shit went down to really flesh out what the past family dynamics are. and to help you feel better if you need to

"Miroku is trembling"

Girl, they just made his eyes vibrate, tf you mean he's 'trembling'

Bro SHOULD be trembling, cause when I fucking GET him bro, no wind tunnel is gonna save his ass from my goddamn GUN

I hate this man. I can't believe he's eighteen flirting with kids younger than him (fifteen, sixteen, fourteen, etc)

AND DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE TELL ME "IT WAS THE FEUDAL ERA IT WAS NORMAL" SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN TO WHAT KAGOME SAYS IN THAT EPISODE

Anyways, I'm gonna beat Miroku's ass one day and then he's just gonna lie on the ground and cry. Or be dead. Whatever happens first

my brother and I's first follower (a rabbit my brother named Dante) died of old age today and we instantly brought him back as a test of our newly unlocked resurrection ritual.

unfortunately he rolled to become cursed and I am flabbergasted that our first resurrection rolled to be cursed. we locked him up so that he won't eat anybody, but we haven't even beaten Guison yet (we have died to that goddamned frog 3 times now), so we can't cure him yet

I hope we can finished Anura quickly so that we can save our boy, but my brother is fucking DEVASTATED. Dante was his (and my) favorite and now look at him... in the pillory until we can get into Anchordeep... sad

Parental Shamura....

Save me parental Shamura

ok, ok

so, Shamura, right?

I have a little headcanon that they call everyone "little bug" because everyone was/is shorter than them

but, what if they have bug-themed nicknames for their siblings?

like, Narinder would just be "bug" or "little flea" because he always stuck around them when he was young (when not playing with his other siblings, obvi)

and then I'm thinking Leshy would be "little worm" or something else worm related because DUH he's a worm

for Kallamar it's a little harder because he's a squid and that's harder to figure out. but maybe "water-skimmer" or something along those lines

Heket I'm thinking ant-themed nicknames, especially honeypot ants because they expand when feeding and she's the bishop of famine and feast. see my line of thought? so they call her "honeypot" or something like that

to add onto that, they call Dr. Sozonius "lovebug" alongside the usual s/o pet names like "darling, dear, my love" etc.

and then for their child (my Sozura fankid Vila, btw), I think they also go for "lovebug" but also "spiderling" because she's part spider and maybe something else, but I can't think off the top of my head

just Shamura calling people they love bug-themed nicknames

WHOA WHOA WHOA!!!!!

(Episode I'm talking about: "The Stone Flower and Shippo's First Love")

Satsuki is probably fucking 5 maybe 7 or 8 and Miroku said fucking WHAT???????

"[...] she was fairly attractive, I must admit."????????? What the FUCK???????????

You, sir, need to be locked up and put to the fucking BLADE

That is a literal child! It's not even young teenagers anymore! It's a literal child!!!!!!!!!!

They let this man be on live tv??????????

I'm killing Miroku. I'm exploding him with my mind. I don't care about his goals at all. I hope that wind tunnel devours him and he never passes on his lineage so that there isn't another one of THOSE THINGS running around

Inuyasha, kill this man

"Miroku is trembling"

Girl, they just made his eyes vibrate, tf you mean he's 'trembling'

Oh my god he's SUCH a big brother!!!!!!

Scaring the shit out of Shippo while the poor baby is already on edge is SO big brother-coded

It's only season 3 and he's already bonded to Shippo despite claiming he hates him. Cutie patootie behavior
