#and also talk to jordan

[dolyx]

(hmhmm maybe i'll change my mind after i read the schism i just need to jot this thought down before i do but—a pc who has met the bishop. a pc whose first purge is a success, who considers the experience exhilarating not for the sake of purging corruption, but only for the feeling of pride that comes from finally knowing what to do with a penitent's confession. a pc who does not believe in the temple's beliefs, really, and is only there to spend more time with a loved one. a pc whose faith was long gone. perhaps, at a time, they wished to believe in a higher diety, that a higher being exists and dictates the right from wrong. but the moment they step foot outside the orphanage—this belief shatters. their hope snuffed out by their experiences inside and outside the town. a pc who has given up on making things better for themself and for the people around them and instead opts to cling to the first person who expressed disdain in the town, hoping for them to be their ticket to get out of this hellhole of a place.

then came along the bishop. of their lengthy explanations about the taint of the dark elk. about the children of auriga. about their purpose as the few faithful who have discovered the truth. about jordan's purpose. about sydney's—or what was supposed to be theirs if not for pc who has corrupted them. the bishop thanks pc. they send them their gratitude for helping sydney pass the trial of anguish. pc couldn't have known the consequences of their actions, they said. they have already made it up to them, they said. but it doesn't diminish the guilt that begins to rise in their throat at their realization. pc is not a religious person, no, and they could barely give a shit of what the temple's scriptures say but—fuck. fuck. knowing they have just doomed the person—and the whole town, in extension—to the taint the bishop speaks of fills them with sickening guilt, pc can't consider the bishop's acts cruel when they have just made life worse for the people residing in this town. they now see the logic behind jordan's innocence being a shield. they now see the importance of the temple—of the bishop, of the few faithful clergies who dedicated their lives to purging sin out of this town. a pc who becomes overriden with guilt and a sense of responsibility that they begin to take their duties to the temple more seriously. tend the garden. clean the quarters. practice on their weapon of choice. attend mass if their schedule allows it. act as a confessor as much as they can and purge sin out of this town.

but despite it all, it's not enough. what they do is not enough. pc knows several other people whose souls must be cleansed yet have no desire to step foot into the temple.

so they resort to other methods. the end justifies the means, as they all say. corruption is spread through sexual acts. consequently, it is also released from the corrupted if done at the right place. however, not all people are willing. not all desire to be cleansed, not all wish to rid of the corruption that flourishes in this town. if this is the case, then surely pc should be allowed to other methods, right? if not to purge sinners of their sins, then at least to prevent corruption from spreading. the temple's teachings will definitely frown on pc's choice of action. the scriptures advise them to respect life, after all. to respect one another. but at least—at least, pc can protect the town in their own way to truly make it up for defiling the one person who could've been the beacon of hope and innocence they (would) need.

tldr; pc who's overriden with guilt of knowing the consequences of corrupting sydney in the long run that they (1) become more dedicated to serving the temple in their own way and (2) become someone who (secretly?) eliminates those tainted with auriga's corruption but with no intention of cleansing their souls via murder lol.)

Prompt 163

Danny pinched the bridge of his nose, taking a deep breath, counting to ten and then letting it out. Why was this always his luck? Alright. Okay. Time to move again thanks to Dan pushing his body too far again, and ending up in his core. This was not how he was expecting to spend his days when he ghost-adopted his clone and sort-of son now actual son. Welp, he’ll throw a dart at the map to figure out where he’ll go next. 

Hm. Well, pack up Ellie! They’re moving to a place called Smallville, you always wanted a horse, right?

Things that have happened in the last 48 hours

Tucker Carlson fired from Fox News unceremoniously and without warning, apparently directly at the command of Rupert Murdoch. Reason isn't clear but Dominion claims with wasn't because of their recent settlement with Fox News for over $700 million. Considering all that Fox News hosts get away with saying regularly, something pretty wild has to have happened for them to suddenly fire their number one money maker and the host of the highest viewed tv program in the country, on any channel.

Don Lemon fired from CNN possibly without warning, though CNN claims they tried to meet with him. Possibly due to sexist and/or racist comments, but the reason isn't currently clear and CNN is just not wanting to talk about it

Nate Silver was laid off by Disney and ABC and is no longer part of FiveThirtyEight, which he founded.

Steven Crowder announced that he has been divorced since 2021 when his wife filed a no-fault divorce, openly bemoaned the fact that the laws of Texas allowed her to divorce him without his permission, and then publicly accused Candace Owens of trying to use his divorce to extort him for money.

Candace Owens started commenting back at him, denying the accusations of extortion and has now officially begun another far right media civil war as people are taking sides, because she took the bait. She may or may not have sent him a cease and desist and be planning to take legal action.

Batman: Universe (2020) written by Bendis and illustrated by Nick Derington was one of the most charming and lovely batman comic i have read in a really long time. it's a silly time travel story!!! and only six issues long!

SPOILERS AHEAD, here are some out of context panels that just really amused me;

i really enjoyed how casual batman is with the people in gotham. like yeah, bruce regularly spooks residents when he grapples up the side of their building, and stops for a quick chat. the young new cops aren't exactly sure how to handle batman while others are too used to him to care anymore.

then the whole interaction with green arrow (issue 2) was SO fun! i am so fond of them and they're rarely in enjoyable comics together anymore. i particularly loved this little detail:

at first bruce calls him oliver, but as the situation becomes increasingly more dangerous, he switches to calling him ollie! i am very normal about this.

THE BATLANTERN MOMENT. this whole part of the story (issue 3 & 4) was just, very sweet. it was a perfect balance of them being prickly to each other, while also sticking close and working really well.

this part of the story also features cowboy bruce and hal (sort of)!

...and then bruce was really worried about hal when he lost control and vanished from the past (he's fine), so much so that later in the story when he's dying, he mentions that he hopes green lantern is okay (in the present, hal leaves bruce a voice message to say he is okay, and hopes bruce is safe too).

oh right yeah so bruce dies (for like, a page, thank you confusing time travel mechanics) and THIS IS WHAT HE SAYS TO ALFRED:

I AM SORRY YOU CAN'T HEAR ME.. TELL YOU.. HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU.. I REALLY DO........ bruce wayne when i get you (issue 4).

AND THEN!!!! DICK ARRIVES (issue 5)!!!!!! i was hoping we'd get to see damian when bruce returned to the present, or that robin would come along on the time travel shenanigans, but this moment happened and i didn't even mind. it was so lovely. the duo of all time always.

a lot happens after this moment (issue 6), but these little panels really spoke to me. look at him. sitting criss cross apple sauce in the face of absolute doom. the pastel coloured eternal hell was also very funny to me, as was bruce then literally jumping between different periods of time during the final fight — but i have run out of space to share those. you need to go look at them for yourself.

so idk, READ IT !!!!!!

I've been watching Hazbin Hotel in prime. Just watched episode 5 and I gotta ask

Why, oh, WHY DON'T I SEE MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT "MORE THAN ANYTHING" WHEN TALKING ABOUT THE HAZBIN HOTEL MUSIC???

Like I get it, the song before it "Hell's Greatest Dad" Is a bop reminiscent of other music from the era its parodying. I loved it.

BUT why are you only putting clips of that song when this MASTERPIECE comes a few minutes after

I honestly don't even know where to begin with this song. The visuals are beautiful, especially when we get moments like this where you can just see the absolute LOVE this man has for her daughter is so sweet and Heartwarming I just-

The voices are fenomenal but what else can you expect from the broadway talents of Erika Henningsen and Jeremy Jordan.

There is also the whole Symbolism with passing the baton to the next generation and stuff. I- I can't even get into the specifics right now Im too emotional.

But above all else THE LYRICS

ESPECIALLY THAT LAST ONE

"I'M GRATEFUL YOU ARE MY DAUGHTER/FATHER MORE THAN ANYTHING"

DO YOU WANT ME TO CRY?? CAUSE I AM. I AM BAWLING MY EYES OUT RIGHT NOW.

It's just so fucking beautiful man. Probably the best song I will hear all year. Obviously my favorite from Hazbin.

Last night Jennifer Newberry got stuck in the bubble during the curtain call. Luckily, her cast members and the backstage crew had her back (x)

No bc ur post about hitting Jordan with the "this you? 🤨" is so real. Like maybe you two are frenemies like you hang out but are academic rivals so as soon as they get a little too bold, you pull up their jitterbean promo lol It def shuts them up but they're secretly into it when ur mean to them

(Sorry for rambling I just really like ur stuff)

They'd never know a minute's peace. Even when they think you're being nice there's teeth to it.

"You look really good today, Li."

Jordan, not trusting you to not be a cunt, "....thanks?"

You, copying their exact cadence and tone during the 'Godolkin Campus Tour with Jordan Li' video, "So much swag!"

"FUCK YOU."

what if i said hal's mom called him "hally" specifically as a play on halley's comet, huh. what if i said she did that because she knew no matter how far he went, he'd always come back to her, hm. what then.

So.... what's the iskall vault god headcanon?

so, my iskall headcanon is that he’s a demigod. he’s basically an angel of the vault gods, and is partially god himself. at one point, he wasn’t—there was a time in the past he was just like, a guy, I like the headcanon where he was raised by villagers—but he was made into a demigod through the vault gods.

normally, he wouldn’t be supposed to be hanging out and running vaults; he should be like other demigods like douwsky, not running vaults but making sure the world runs correctly. however, iskall both prefers hanging out with mortals and is the gods’ special little man, so they let him test that everything works the way it’s supposed to instead of having to stick around with the gods. that, and he’s very useful for leading people into the vaults himself. people are more likely to come play them if they already trust iskall, after all! it’s a very important role, being the one to lead the normal mortals through the vaults.

also for all they’re ominous and using iskall to get sacrifices or whatever I do also think the vault gods are helicopter parents. because it’s funny. they’re currently nagging iskall about how if he’s going to let them meet their friends he really OUGH TO bring that mumbo fellow by he keeps making blocks for, and iskall is responding with deep embarrassment, as one does,

anyway and that’s the approximate iskall headcanon.
