“Maybe it’s like a boat,” Crowley muttered to himself as he stood in the doorway of the bathhouse staring at the piles of wood. “Only on land, like the reverse of a boat? Do I know how to build a boat?”
The demon tapped his head; he enjoyed being on boats, he especially liked sailboats much more than galley boats, but in all this time of traveling on boats and even watching humans building them, the demon had never actually built one himself. For those times in ancient times when he had to cross water, he usually swam it as a snake or if it were a daunting distance, he would fly. But he hadn’t even built so much as a raft, much less a boat.
“Goodness, are you still at it?” Aziraphale came in to check up on what all the clattering of wooden boards and logs was about.
“Erm, maybe? Though I’m a bit stuck. I’ve never built a boat before.”
“…why. Why? Would you. Need to build a boat?”
“Isn’t that what a bathtub is? Like a boat, but in reverse. Where the water’s on the inside instead of the outside – oh is that what that whole stone boat thing was about? Was that supposed to be a big bathtub made from a mountaintop? Though it ended up on the bottom of the Nile. Not a very useful place to take a bath if it’s already underwater…”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about, Demon.”
“Eh,” Crowley shrugged. “Never mind, not important. Ancient business. Quite literally.”
“First of all,” Aziraphale began, “to work with wood you’d need tools. A saw, a mallet. Charcoal or chalk to measure and mark the wood. Chisels, perhaps, if it were to be jointed. Hemp rope, probably, to use for measuring. But also thick hemp rope long enough to bind the entire tub all the way around. You’d need to dig a big shallow hole outside, get water, start a fire…” Aziraphale glanced at the materials at hand, moving boards and loose pieces of wood about, sorting them.
“…why would I need a hole?”
“The hole is to steam the wood, of course, to bend it into the right shape. Look, you have large enough boards for a base here. We could make it circular, about three cubits wide? Would that be long enough to sit down in? Build a circular or oval frame, shape the boards for the sides as if making a barrel. Lash it together with hemp rope. Give it a good sanding so that the interior is smooth and there are no splinters.
“Then we transfer it outside. If we leave it out in the rain to soak, once it’s wet the wood will swell and make it watertight or at least watertight enough for our purposes. It doesn’t have to be perfectly sealed. I suppose the shipbuilding idea isn’t too bad of an idea, that is pretty much the principle of these things. If we wait long enough, the rain should fill the tub, and then we transfer the rainwater into the heating system, and pipe it back into the tub.”
“You obviously pay much better attention to human craftsmanship than I do.”
“I have been watching them for years.”
“I like watching them too, but the details escape me.” Crowley smiled. “What tools did you say you needed?”
“A saw, a mallet, perhaps some chisels…goodness, do not steal them, foul fiend. I don’t want you stealing. If you need money for these things–”
“Eh, don’t worry about me,” Crowley said. “I bet I could borrow some from friends.”

aita for not giving my nephew his inheritance?
i (M) come from a family 4. i have two sisters and a brother (older than me). growing up, my brother was always wayyy more favoured than I. Our father gave him all of his property and titles instead of me when he decided to retire. i was annoyed about this since i should’ve been included in the inheritance, but didn’t say anything because i’m pretty strong myself and not a crybaby. Anyways, a little while ago, my brother passed away (unrelated story, do not ask me for context. it was a NATURAL passing), and so i, like a good brother, took over my brother’s property and household and have been managing it peacefully ever since 😌.
However, recently my brother’s wife decided to come back to town and claims that her son should be managing the property instead of me. i politely told her that i’m a lot older than her son (he has no real world experience and would definitely be overwhelmed by the role), and so it really would be better for everyone if i stayed in charge. She argued that since it was originally my brother’s property, therefore his son should get everything, but i think that since my brother’s property was actually our father’s property and i’m the only remaining son of our father, it should be mine. my SIL decided to throw a big stink and has gotten all of our extended family involved too and no one can really make a decision about who the property should go to. my nephew and i have been forced to participate in all sorts of weird “trials” to try and see who’s best suited to stay in charge, and it’s just been incredibly exhausting 🙄 (yes, i have been winning ALL of them!). none of this would have happened if my SIL hadn’t gotten involved.
I’m really saddened by the way my SIL has handled the whole thing, and i know that her son just isn’t ready to take over from me 😒. He’s incredibly immature, short-tempered and generally unlikeable. Some things he’s done during this whole scenario include: chopping his mother’s head off, jacking off in MY LUNCH!!, and making an “L” sign on his forehead every time he sees me. i just can’t stand the idea of a little brat like him taking what i’ve worked so hard to protect and grow 😡😡.

The Contendings of Horus and Set (and homosexuality in Ancient Egypt)
Tumblr media
(The image is the Chester Beatty Papyrus I, written in hieratic, containing the mentioned story)
In my last post I (affectionately) called Set "the Gay Uncle of the Egyptian Pantheon" and promised to elaborate more on it in another post.
(CW: sexuality talk, bits of violence and- lettuce. No strong language)
First, a "little" foreword on homosexuality in Ancient Egypt: this is a very complicated subject as I gathered since, well- we don't know very much about it. The few accounts that survived are either disputed or offer little information on the general attitude towards same-sex relationship outside the single case.
It's also difficult to talk about heterosexuality, homosexuality and bisexuality in ancient times at all since the way we know them is a relatively modern concept (the word homosexuality is first attested in 1868 on a letter to Karl Heinrich Ulrichs by Karl-Maria Kertbeny) and before christianity became mainstream the biggest concerns were at best pointed towards the practices (mostly, Taking It™).
For everything else, relationships were just relationships.
The best known example of a same-sex couple were these guys, since it's likely the earliest recorded in history:
Tumblr media
They're Khnumhotep (ẖnm.w-ḥtp(.w)) and Niankhkhnum (nj-ꜥnḫ-ẖnm.w), two royal servants and confidants who had the prestigious task to be the king's head manicurists. In their mastaba tomb in Saqqara are depicted in poses traditionally reserved for couples - like holding hands, embracing and kissing.
However, both of them had wives (Khenut and Khentikawes) and 6 children each.
Ancient Egyptians were very passionate about fertility - which is understandable considering how easily people could die any day for any reason back then. The more children you had and the more the chances that at least one of them survived to adulthood and could carry on jobs and duties.
So as long as you were a (re)productive member of society, it wasn't a big deal that you enjoyed / preferred the company of an individual of your same sex.
The big deal was, as I mentioned, Taking It™ for two main reasons:
Power dynamics. Assuming an active role during the intercourse meant at the same time asserting your dominance and/or humiliating the person on the receiving end of it
Something that I understood as "guy takes up the role of a woman during the intercourse but with none of her reproductive power" which considering how massively important being fertile was to them... well. Makes it a practice as sterile as the desert
And guess who was the god of deserts? our guy Set
Tumblr media
(and also storm, disorder and violence to be precise)
His name was written either stš, swtḫ, swtj or stẖ depending on the time period (the Greeks just went with Seth)
He also loved eating this particular vegetable a normal amount (keep it in mind, we'll need that later):
Tumblr media
Set was one of the children of Geb (the god of the Earth) and Nut (goddess of the sky) along with Osiris, Isis and Nephthys - who he was married to.
Osiris was king at the time and upheld the rule of ma'at (ideal natural order, fundamental concept of AE culture) along with Isis, his wife-sister.
At some point Set murdered Osiris, tore his body into pieces and scattered them all around Egypt. Reasons for this act may have been:
Osiris kicked him
Osiris had an affair with Nephthys
Isis and Nephthys in the form of either a falcon or a kite searched for all pieces and with the help of Anubis put them all together in what is considered the first mummy in Egyptian tradition. Isis uses her wings to briefly fan new life in Osiris' body and the two conceive a child, Horus.
Osiris' resurrection was not permanent and after his time was out he became ruler of the Duat (the realm of the dead), while Isis raises Horus in secret until he was old enough to come back to challenge Set for his throne.
The dispute took the form of a series of competitions (like racing with boats or fighting each other in the form of hippopotami) and legal judgement before the assembled council of gods, the Ennead.
During one of the competitions Isis tried to help her son while he was locked in combat with Set but accidentally spears Horus - he got FURIOUS and beheaded his mother. Then tried to fix it by sticking on the body a head of a cow. No one will ever notice, amright? (This gives the mythological origin of the cow horn headdress Isis sometimes is depicted wearing)
Horus repeatedly defeats Set in the various competitions and is largely favoured by the the other gods, but the head of the Ennead was Geb and Geb liked Set so they were stuck in this limbo situation of tie for years.
and then - brace yourself. Now it comes the key moment of this story.
Set and Horus have sex.
I'm serious
The details of this obviously varied from account to account (as most of myths in Ancient Egypt, it was almost expected to have different variations of it depending on the time period and place)
According to one account, it was deliberately only to humiliate him
According to another, he genuinely wanted to bang his nephew other than the act of dominance / humiliation thing, he didn't take no as an answer and got him drunk
According to another one again it was consensual, Horus agreed on condition that Set would've given him part of his strength (my fave)
But Horus was a smart birb and he either caught Set's seed with his hands (don't ask me how) or removed it in secret, so to make Set believe the act was successful. Horus tells his mom about what happened and the morning after they plan something.
Horus wanks on some lettuce and Isis serves it to a clueless Set.
Who eats it all.
The next time the Ennead were called to judgement, Set mentions having laid with Horus as a mean to demonstrate he has asserted his dominance over him so he had the right to claim the throne for himself. Horus disagrees. Geb verifies who of the two had the other's seed in his body and-
Set did.
Horus thus won the dispute
They eventually reconcile with each other and shared the lands to rule (which might have been fertile lands of the Nile to Horus and foreign deserts to Set, or one had the land and the other the sky, or the two traditional halves of the country). With this reconciliation, the dualities they represent are also reconciled into a united whole restoring order after the conflict.
(according to other accounts Geb played the bitch and gave sole reign to Horus, to other much later when Egypt was a bit in a bad place Set was utterly defeated, exiled and/or destroyed)
Funny thing is that Set actually got pregnant from the tainted lettuce and gave birth to either:
A golden disk on his forehead
Thot
Thot's moon disk (in versions where Thot is present during the dispute)
Well ancient Egyptian mythology sure is something huh

The Predynastic texts do not provide any information regarding the origins of either Horus or Seth. However, in Spell P279 Horus and Seth are referred to as ‘brothers’. Throughout all the spells dealing with Seth the Elder, there is no vilification or condemnation of him, even when he is in conflict with Horus. Other than Horus always being referred to first, Seth is presented as an equal with Horus, and they work together for the benefit of the deceased king, who in turn becomes the embodiment of them. A distinct change in the relationship between Horus and Seth occurs within the texts associated with Osiris. Unlike the Predynastic relationship between Horus the Elder and Seth the Elder discussed above, that of Horus the Younger and Seth the Younger had violent overtones, with the two deities suffering mutilation at each other’s hands.
Deconstructing the Iconography of Set, Ian Taylor, pg 36

Horus and Saint George Iconographical Comparison In a legend, Saint George—a soldier venerated later in Christianity—originally saves a princess by defeating a dragon. He rides a horse and slays a dragon with a spear. The narrative was first set in Cappadocia in the earliest sources of the 11th and 12th centuries, but transferred to Libya in the 13th-century Golden Legend. "The Contendings of Horus and Seth" is a mythological story from the Twentieth Dynasty of Egypt found in the first sixteen pages of the Chester Beatty Papyri (📸 5-6) and deals with the battles between Horus and Seth to determine who will succeed Osiris as king. Horus sails on a boat and defeats Seth with a spear. Seth’s boat had sunk prior and thus he transformed into a hippopotamus, to scuttle Horus’s boat. 📸 2.

Nit, or Neith, Goddess of hunting, wisdom, and weaving.
Tumblr media
Nit was a Goddess of many things, and of many backstories. In some myths, she gives birth to Ra (God of the sun and king of the Gods), Sobek (crocodile God), Thoth (God of Wisdom) and more.
Nit is a Goddess of war, hunting, weaving, wisdom, and a protector of the king/creator Goddess. She was one of the four protectors of the deceased, along with Isis, Serket, and Nepthys.
In many myths, she is a virgin Goddess. However, sometimes, she is said to have a husband, which is usually Set or Khnum.
The Egyptians believed that when involked, she could help the people settle arguments and disputes. In the contendings of Seth and Horus, Ra contacts her to pick one to be king. She picks Horus, but gives Seth two wives (Anath and Astarte) as a consolation prize.
She was said to be connected to bodies of water, especially rivers, ponds, and streams.

Relationships With The Netjeru: Set
Of all the Netjeru I work with, Set (Seth, Sutekh) has been with me the longest. He came into my life when I was seven years old and was my constant companion growing up. I was in the second grade during our first trip to the school library. Almost immediately, I found a picture book depicting the Kemetic Mystery Play, the story of the primeval pharaoh Asar’s (Osiris) betrayal at the hand of His evil, jealous brother Set. Asar’s queen, the beautiful and wise Aset (Isis), traveled long and far with Her devoted sister, Nebt-Het (Nephthys) to restore Her husband to life. Sadly, because a “piece” of Him was lost, Asar was unable to fully return so He descended to the Duat to reign over the souls of the dead. With that “piece” Aset conceived and was left to raise Their son, Herupakhered (Horus the Younger). Eventually, the young Heru grows up and challenges His uncle for the right to rule. In the end, Heru is victorious and earns the kingship over the land of Kemet. I was absolutely enthralled.
Of all the Gods in that story, Set stood out to me. I noticed pretty quickly that He was different. To my young mind, Heru was probably the most similar to Set as they both had animal heads. If the story hadn’t said otherwise, They could be brothers! I was a… unique kid who struggled to fit in so I related to Set’s otherness. I could understand His anger and the distance He put between Himself and His fellow Netjeru. With Set in my life, I felt like I wasn’t alone even when it appeared that I was. I felt His presence even before I could understand what that meant. 
Controversial as this may be, I believe nothing would get done without Set. He represents the force of opposition, without which there could be no momentum or growth. Without expulsion forces, planets would leave their orbits and galaxies would rip themselves apart. Without friction, we could not walk. Without challenges, we would not improve. Without bad conduct, we would not know how to act. Set is the primeval Other that churns the waters of creation. Even in the Mystery Play, Asar would not become the ruler of the Duat without Set being there to kill Him. Set along with His brother Heru-Wer (Horus the Elder) were the Egyptian kingmakers since the predynastic era.
Long before the fertility cult of Asar gained prominence Kemet was divided into tribal territories possessing different patron deities with Set belonging to an archaic stellar cult and Heru-Wer belonging to a proto-solar cult. Eventually, these two cult centers and their mythos merged, originating in the concept of the Two Lands and creating the earliest narrative of the Contendings of Heru and Set or the Tale of Two Brothers. Set and Heru-Wer embodied the complementary forces of the cosmos that, through their interactions, are responsible for what we consider the creative principle. An important thing to note is that through all Kemetic mythos, Set and Heru fight and sustain injury but neither can destroy the other.
Set has a very aristocratic, noble personality that does not bow or bend to adversity. Once a benevolent storm God, psychopomp, and ruler of the honored dead, Set’s role was recast from the Second Dynasty onwards. He became reviled by those outside of the priesthood for millennia, representing isfet, destruction, and conquering foreigners—an irony I believe He revels in. Set knows His worth and recognizes those who recognize Him. Despite His treacherous role in the Asarian myth, every night Set defended the solar barque from the onslaught of Apep, a task otherwise reserved for the Eye of Ra. Set was so trusted by Ra that He was given the task of defending the light of creation in its most vulnerable moment.
Set was directly responsible for a lot of growth in my life. As a child, Set opened my mind to the vastness of the cosmos, showing me that there is so much more to… everything. He began to impart an understanding of All That Is and I began to question the apparent order of the world. As a teenager, He started to guide my Initiation, acting as an agent of Khepera through my expanding consciousness, and so I began to write. As an adult, He began the tedious, painful process of removing from my life and my being all that does not serve me, and so guided me through my first dark night of the soul. Without Him there to challenge me I don’t know where or who I would be. Set is the dad who tells you to get back up when you fall off your bike and takes you out for ice cream when you get it right.
Humor is one of the ways I commune with Set. He loves bad jokes, dirty jokes, and particularly irony. In all likelihood, Set invented the dad joke. It’s no surprise one of His sacred animals is the hyena. Laughter is a universal language that every conscious being can understand. It has been shown to promote physical healing in otherwise irrecoverable patients and I’ve known people with debilitating chronic depression whose road to recovery began with laughing until they cried. Humor is a way to take ourselves less seriously and release from material attachment. It moves mountains by illuminating what is hidden in darkness. All at once, Set’s Gift releases us from what doesn’t matter and shows us what does.
Even though His domains are unpleasant, Set is kind to a fault. It is actually because of His raw, destructive capability that Set is kind. Among the vices Set detests are self-pity, hypocrisy, and victimization whereas He respects those who take responsibility, speak the truth, and do their best. One of Set’s epithets is “Great of Strength.” He knows exactly what you are capable of and expects nothing less than that. He also validates emotions such as defeat, depression, grief, and anxiety. Were Set truly unkind and incapable of recognizing inner truth, He would be utterly incapable of guiding someone through a dark night of the soul.
He is also notoriously confident and proud. Although it might be difficult to discern there is a difference between arrogance and confidence. I think arrogance is like a snow globe and confidence is like a diamond—one is carefully crafted to be alluring but is ultimately hollow while the other is forged into something relentless by pressure, heat, and time. Working with Set is like becoming a diamond and reaping the rewards of your endurance. His confidence and bravado are reassuring and they often come out during His praise. He’s the dad who sits tall with a cheeky grin pointing out His kid who scored the winning touchdown.
Of all the things that I revere about Set one stands apart from the rest. Among Kemetics, Set is widely considered to be a “Gay God.” Until recent years, being LGBTQIA+ was widely considered to be unnatural, immoral, and in many instances criminal. I grew up living in South Texas surrounded by angry bigots, probably one of the worst places to be for someone queer. When I realized I was bisexual I decided that for better or worse I would never live in the closet. That was simultaneously the best and worst thing I could have done but it was also the most Setian thing I could have done. That decision made me who I am today and I made the conscious choice to never look away. I’d like to point out that all of the Netjeru detest acts of bigotry as it is antithetical to ma’at but Set in particular stands as a symbol of strength, courage, and resistance among the LGBTQIA+ community.
Set is my father, teacher, healer, and friend. I don’t see as much of Him now but He is around. I’ve gotten to a point where I don’t quite need Him as much but He still makes Himself known. The occasional life lesson sown by isfet reminds me that His lessons never end. He sometimes shows up as things go awry—always situations that He knows I can handle. Will I stress and worry or will I ride out the storm, however brief it is likely to be? One thing I’ve learned from Set is that I can choose what to worry about. If something isn’t worth my energy, I owe it only one thing—if even that—and that is to walk away.
Set represents the aspect of chaos that is beneficial in that it, by becoming aware of itself, undergoes self-transformation. His is the power of Ouroboros, the cosmic serpent that devours itself to so engender the greater alchemical process of eternal return. In slaying Apep, Set is proving that His Will and Nature transcend that of mindless chaos. In this way, Set has both an aristocratic air and that of a seasoned warrior. He is a trickster, a fighter, and a lover of red meat, spicy food, hard liquor, terrible jokes, and all things over-the-top. He is a Master of what we call magick and His is the process of Initiation. Set is all of these things. He is the Netjer of many hats.
Dua Set!

Probably because it's not the same plot: none of the stuff cited here happens in ENNEAD. I'd never heard of the novel you're citing until you posted about it, but based on what I'm reading from Evenings, it doesn't read similarly either. Seth has no idea who Horus is until the trial in ENNEAD, and neither one of them best each other at everything, either. More would be spoilery, but just assume all the assumed parallels are wrong.
It seems like Evenings - like ENNEAD - is loosely based on Egyptian myths ENNEAD also used, often involving Seth killing Osiris and gaining the throne. Isis then revives Osiris to conceive their son, Horus. In some versions of the story, Seth pursues Isis and Horus to kill them (to defend his throne). He fails. During the trial for the throne, in some tellings, Seth sleeps with Horus, typically as a ploy to assert his dominance (as the one who tops) and show that he's the rightful ruler (Horus usually subverts this somehow), because the ruler is the dominant one. Many stories detail the battles between the two gods, who represented different things throughout Egyptian history and in different places (whether that's a pharaoh rising to power/taking control of different parts of Egypt, or something else). So any similarity is because of shared source material. Not because ENNEAD is fanfic of this book.
Tumblr media
Don't get me wrong, I love me some Korean BL and Seven Seas, but why does this series sound like a comics version of a chapter in Normal Mailer's Ancient Evenings? Like same plot and everything.

Doodle page of Taweret + News
🐾 𓋹𓍑𓋴 🐾
A doodle page I did for Taweret! I don't have much to say, She gives me the feeling of when I used to bury myself into my mother's side because I wanted safety and protection. That is what Taweret reminds me of, in a good way.
She must of loved this art, because soon after my feed on instagram became flooded with reels about hippos, especially of that baby moo deng. (She is so cute)
Thanks for the reels Taweret 🥰
Tumblr media
Im glad she still liked it, because admittedly I wasn't using a a refrence of a hippopotamus and kinda went based on memory of what hippos look like. Could probably be more accurate, buuut.. oh well..
On another note, thank you for your support on my first modern rewrite about Sekhmet! I know in reality 20 notes isn't a lot, but I usually post on Instagram and I am lucky for any content i make to get past 12 likes, so thanks ^^
Im currently working on a modern rewrite of "The Contendings of Horus and Seth". Im very busy so might post it this weekend or somewhere next week!

Ra: Could anyone tell me where Horus is and why he missed the Ennead meeting?? Set: Sorry, I haven't seen him since the last time I saw him. Ra: And when was that? Set: The last time I saw him? It's definitely the time I saw him last.
