In Nativitate Domini ad tertiam Missam in die

Epistola Evangelium

Léctio Epistolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebraéos.

Multifárium multísque modis olim Deus loquens pátribus in prophétis: novíssime diébus istis locútus est nobis in Fílio, quem constítuit herédem universórum, per quem fecit et saécula: qui cum sit splendor glóriæ, et figúra substántiæ ejus, portánsque ómnia verbo virtútis suæ, purgatiónem peccatórum fáciens, sedet ad déxteram majestátis in excélsis: tanto mélior Angelis efféctus, quanto differéntius præ illis nomen hereditávit. Cum enim dixit aliquándo Angelórum: Filius meus es tu, ego hódie genui te? Et rursum: Ego ero illi in patrem, et ipse erit mihi in filium? Et cum iterum indrodúcit primogénitum in orbem terræ, dicit: Et adórent eum omnes Angeli Dei. Et ad Angelos quidem dicit: Qui facit Angelos suos spiritus, et ministros suos flammam ignis. Ad Fílium autem: Thronus tuus, Deus in saéculum saéculi: virga æquitatátis, virga regni tui. Delixisti justitiam, et odisti iniquitátem: proptérea unxit te Deua, Deus tuus, óleo exultatiónis præ particípibus tuis. Et: Tu in princípio Dómine, terram fundásti: et ópera mánuum tuárum sunt cæli. Ipse períbunt, tu autem permanébis; et omnes ut vestiméntum veteráscent: et velut amíctum mutábis eos, et mutabúntur: tu autem idem ipse es, et anni tui non deficient.

Inítium sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem.

In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est: in ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hóminum: et lux in ténebris lucet, et ténebræ eum non comprehendérunt. Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Joánnes. Hic venit in testimónium, ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine, ut omnes créderent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine. Erat lux vera, quæ illúminat omnem hóminem veniéntem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognóvit. In própria venit, et sui eum non recepérunt. Quotquot autem recepérunt eum, dedit eis potestátem fílios Dei fíeri, his, qui credunt in nómine ejus: qui non ex sanguínibus, neque ex voluntáte carnis, neque ex voluntáte viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt. [Hic genuflectitur] Et Verbum caro factum est, et habitávit in nobis: et vidimus glóriam ejus, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a Patre, plenum grátiæ et veritátis.

{Fic} A Ghost Carol, Stave 2

Fandom: Ghost

Characters: Secondo, Terzo, Copia, PRimo, Various Nameless Ghouls, Various original characters

Notes: HELLO!!!! This fic has been in the works since December of 2022, and I am delighted to say that it is finally here! Expect to see a lot of lines lifted from and referencing both the original writings of Dickens and A Muppet’s Christmas Carol. Both of them were my main points of reference when writing this, as I really wanted it to feel as much like A Christmas Carol as I could. So i was mimicking Dickens’ writing style as best I could WHICH IS DIFFICULT FOR ME. For the record! Also some lines are just too iconic and they’re in every iteration. I hope you all enjoy!

Summary:

Life and being declared Papa Emeritus II has made Secondo bitter and miserable. Set on a path that could lead only to pain. On a cold night int he middle of Yule he is visited by three spirits. To take him on a journey through his past, present, and future, to try and save him from himself.

So this is it.

The last chapter.

I first started properly creating for fandoms somewhere in my early teens. Those early works and the computers they were written on are all lost to time. What has lasted, for well over two decades at this point, was the dream to one day create one of those giant epics I saw on Fanfiction.net. One of those 100k plus fics. I had tried so many time before and failed so many time before.

And now here it is.

I've done it.

This fandom, for as toxic as the antis can be, has been a gift. It was a solace to find in the wake of my father's death. And when I started writing this fic in the September that followed his death I did not expect this fic to be my companion for the next two years. I was so sure that something, even disinterest, would kill it before it got finished. The same way it did to a hundred other fics. Yet here I am. It's done. You know it's a big thing when finishes gives you a small existential crisis that you get to talk to your therapist about.

At the risk of sounding like some sort celebrity accepting an award I want to thank everyone that has ever commented, whether here or on Tumblr. You all are the reason I finished this fic. If I did not have the support and the comments it never would have been finished. I want to thank @acindra , who took on transcribing for me, which saves my sanity. I want to thank my friends on discord for humoring me yelling about this monster for two years.

I promise I'm not done with this series. You'll see more side fics. I have a whole Babies Ever After sequel outlined and ready to be started. So keep you eye on this space lol, as I also other fics on the burners

See y'all in the next fic
