The theology teacher from my freshman year of high school died a few days ago. His kids were both younger than me by more than a few years, and its always a weird mortality check on my family when something like that happens.

He was one of the giants of my high school--a teacher that had legends associated with his name. His class was hard. I credit it with being where I actually learned to type. I got lucky and was the first class that didn't have to prepare a massive animated powerpoint presentation on the book of Exodus, because at that point no one needed to be taught how to use powerpoint. (I would have benefitted from that project, but I'm not complaining that I was spared.) One random day, he would cancel class by surprise and regale us with the story of how he proposed to his wife. And at just fifteen years of age, he assigned a gospel research paper so focused that I had to visit a local seminary college and use their physical library to find information. Exegesis of a pericope anyone?

(I now realize how much this ages me, that I went to a highly specific university library to research a few bible verses, because I couldn't access the necessary resources with the limited online research tools available at the time)

I could wax poetic about tiger amulets, a class known as FARTS, and how I learned about so much more than the Catholic bible from this man, but this is already highly specific. Going to a women's high school meant that we had weird narratives built up around the male faculty, even when they were older than most of our fathers, because there weren't high school boys to distract us. Almost all of them have retired, and three of those men have died.

Adulting is weird and sad, and as much as I was a ball of stress and anxiety during high school, I really love my memories, friends, and experiences and look back fondly on those times in life. It makes me more grateful for the relationships that I've been able to form with some of those same faculty members as an adult.

HOLY FUCK

I just realised that the term "I'll pray for you" isn't actually a common fraise, I just went to a catholic high school

I never would've guessed the amount of pressure that comes with being one of the only out and proud queer seniors at a catholic high school.

"Chris did an excellent job working with my students for a two-day workshop. Not only was he easy to work with, but he also continuously stressed the importance of safety when teaching the fight choreography while engaging the students. He was very professional, and the students responded very well to his teaching style. There was so much positive feedback, especially after we posted our fight scenes on our school's Instagram page. It gave the students confidence while learning how stage combat is done on stage and in film. This opportunity gave the students the experiential learning they needed for their Specialist High Skills major program, so I highly recommend Chris' workshop. I can't wait to have him back next year! "

taps mic. clears throat. remus being the embodiment of the thoughts and fantasies thomas considered "forbidden" means he was, at least for a while, the sole embodiment of thomas' queerness as something to be feared or ashamed of or disgusted by. before any of the other sides could accept this about themselves, before thomas could accept it about himself. remus is the source and the holder of thomas' most unwanted thoughts, which at one point (and while this is technically subtext it is like 1 inch away from being text) included thomas being gay. if we get any dialogue or confirmation of this in the series I will do 1000000 backflips break my neck and pass out on the floor

okay I apologize to any Christians, I hope this isn’t offensive but I can’t stop thinking about it 😭

so you know how Christianity is semi-canon in the downfall timeline? Yeah- how would that work???

Christianity exists on Earth because of a long and complicated collision of history and pagan stories and then the death and resurrection of Jesus, a Jewish middle eastern man who was trying to defend his people against Roman oppressors. i know reasonably that Nintendo might’ve not expected that the Zelda series would take off so much so they probably put in some Christian iconology bc the Catholic aesthetic is kind of popular in Japan. It shows up a lot in anime too.

but now there’s a canon religion the series follows with a couple of goddess 😭

my only reasoning is that the Hyrule Christians believe that God is all powerful and that maybe Hylia, Din, Farore, Nayru are either angels or saints? More Catholic I guess

and maybe the hero of Time would be a Jesus figure?? His birth COULD be immaculate, we don’t know his parents. maybe Christianity comes from Calatia? Hylia I think only focuses on Hyrule??

in the Linked Universe I don’t personally head canon Hyrule or Legend to be catholic BUT. I think it would be really funny if they were

Legend calling Hylia a false prophet 😭

Hyrule holding up his cross like: “I prayed to God and now I can see moas”

If Time is downfall Jesus I think they would both probably have a spiritual crisis depending on how devout they both are 😭

also Legend just REALLY gives me Catholic guilt vibes.

When I was a kid my grandmother would have me recite the “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” prayer which terrified me as a kid 😮‍💨 I feel like Hyrule would recite it every night and it would kind of just unsettle the chain.

PLEASE. Please tell me if anybody has thought the same or has thoughts on how it would work. This has been plaguing my mind

I’m sorry Christians

Hi! I just went through your quizzes (gorgeous writing, by the way!) and I wonder if you have the results for all of them posted somewhere? I know both saints quizzes have a full results post and the garden one too, but I don't think I've found the others. I'm especially curious about the supervillain one :)

hiya!! thank you so much i'm so glad you liked them <3 as of right now i only have results up for the saints + garden quizzes, but i would be so happy to post more results for you! anytime i post results, they should be linked on the masterpost in my bio :) i think i will. only post the supervillain one for now. the other ones make me feel a little silly. but you are so welcome to the supervillain results <3
