Kindred x Reader that does jigsaw puzzles

Strauss- These are truly something that he almost forgot existed. It’s wouldn’t be that he would go out and buy for himself, but he might take a bit to do some of a puzzle with you. It helps him to remember not to work all the time, and there’s still enough thinking in building a puzzle to make him feel like he isn’t totally wasting his time.

Barabus- Despite being one of the more tough Nos in the warrens, he actually likes to do simple things like puzzles from time to time. The only thing is if it’s one that you are both working on, the puzzle will be staying at your place, as the damp atmosphere of the warrens would not interact well with cardboard or wood. Even if it was, he still wouldn’t as there would be no way that the both of you could finish it because one or more of the pieces will go missing, either from the general clutter of the Noferatus’ home, or from one of the others stealing pieces as a prank while he was out.

Jeanette- She is not a fan. A puzzle is an antithesis of who she is. Something that’s quiet and you sit down for? No, way! Give her an evening out with music so loud that she still can’t hear after she’s out of the club. She will love the pictures when you’re done with them though, and has some of your finished puzzles decorating her room.

Isaac- Will say that he doesn’t have time to something like this. However, every time that he walks by you he’ll take time to tell you where at least one piece goes. Soon, it evolves into two pieces, then three, then four, leading into him losing a good twenty minutes at least figuring out a section. While he was right in the he doesn’t really have too much time on his hands, he also enjoys the feeling of pouting things in their proper place. That is one of the reasons he’s a baron, after all.

Cabby/ Caine- He doesn’t see the point of them. Someone took a picture, cut it into a thousand little pieces, just for you to pay money to put it together again? For what purpose? Just buy the picture without it being cut.

This is a surprisingly excellent article by ex-Republican David French about why the attempts of right-wing “Christians” to gain political power (and for some to establish a theocracy) is not consistent with Jesus’ teachings. The above is a gift🎁link, so you can read the entire article, even if you do not subscribe to The New York Times. Below are some excerpts:

But the resurrection isn’t the only lesson of Easter weekend. The story of Christ’s arrest, trial and crucifixion contains its own lessons, and one of them is quite relevant to this age and to debates about Christian engagement in the public square. Quite simply, the story of Easter weekend rebukes the Christian will to power.

To understand why, let’s revisit one of the most famous moments in Scripture. After Jesus’ arrest and show trial, Pontius Pilate, the Roman ruler of Judea, gave the people a fateful choice. It was customary to release a prisoner during Passover, and Pilate offered up Jesus. The crowd wanted someone else. “Release Barabbas to us,” they cried.

When I was a kid in Sunday school, no one ever truly explained the significance of the crowd’s choice. It mystified me. Barabbas was always described as a heinous criminal, a murderer or a robber. Thus, the crowd seemed completely irrational, even deranged. Its choice of a common criminal over Christ was incomprehensible.

Indeed, the contrast with the public reaction to Jesus’ initial entry into Jerusalem was profound. Days earlier, on what we now call Palm Sunday, Jesus entered the city to accolades. As he rode on a colt, his crowd of disciples yelled these words: “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord.”

As I grew older, I learned more context. Jesus was not the king the throng expected. He made clear that he was more interested in saving souls than in assuming power. And Barabbas was more than a mere criminal. He was an insurrectionist. The Books of Luke and Mark very clearly state that he participated in a “rebellion.” Those who chose Barabbas didn’t choose a common criminal over Christ. Instead, they chose a man who defied Rome in the way they understood, a mission that Jesus rejected. [...] But Christ wasn’t a political leader, even though the people hoped for political liberation.... Yet while Jesus refused the will to power, many of his followers simply couldn’t comprehend his purpose. They persisted in the belief that the kingdom he promised would look very much like the kingdoms of this earth, including the Roman kingdom that dominated their lives.

The spirit of Barabbas — the desire to seize or retain power, through violence if necessary — has been at war with the spirit of Christ ever since. Two millenniums of church history demonstrate a terrible truth: There was nothing uniquely evil about that ancient crowd. Instead it held up a mirror to our own nature, one that is all too eager to wield the sword, to believe that our own power is a prerequisite to justice.

Easter weekend contains more than one example of the spirit of Barabbas. When Christ was arrested, the Apostle Peter — a man who had been by his side for much of his ministry — still could not see the truth. He drew his sword, struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his ear.

Though he was in the midst of an unjust arrest that would prove prelude to an unjust execution, Christ rebuked Peter, saying, “Put your sword back in its place, because all who take up the sword will perish by the sword.” [...] There is a difference between the quest for power and the quest for justice. Believers are required to “act justly.” We should not stand idly by in the face of exploitation or oppression. We do not retreat from the public square. But Christian engagement must be distinctive. It cannot emulate the world’s methods or morality.

In fact, we have a modern model. The single most consequential movement for American justice in the last century was influenced and empowered by the Black churches in the South.  The civil rights movement wasn’t exclusively Christian by any means — there are Jewish Americans who gave their lives in support of their Black brothers and sisters, for example — but it was animated by faith.  [...] “We discussed and debated the teachings of the great teacher, and we would ask questions about what would Jesus do,” said [John] Lewis. “In preparing for the sit-ins, we felt that the message was one of love — the message of love in action: Don’t hate. If someone hits you, don’t strike back. Just turn the other side. Be prepared to forgive.”

Tragically, other Southern Christians had forgotten the example of Christ.  The spirit of Barabbas was alive and well in the men who trained their fire hoses on peaceful protesters, who loosed dogs on the Black children of Birmingham...

I encourage folks to use the gift link and read the entire article--and maybe send it to some right-wing “Christian” nationalists with whom you might be acquainted (or to whom you might even be related). 

Happy Easter!

I think this is up there as the single funniest domino effects in the whole of 40k cannon.

context/lore deets:

Warsmith Barabus Dantioch looses a campaign.

Purturabo tells him "I never want to see your face again"

Dantioch forges a helmet to his fucking skull in spite

he gets posted to a backwater artifact far from active duty in disgrace

The 4th legion returns some years later asking him to join them in rebelling the emperor

Dantioch: "4th Legion warship, go fuck yourselves"

the heresy

Barabus dantioch blows up the faros gate, killing himself and the attacking heretics and unleashing a psychic blast strong enough to be detected from interstellar space

skip 10k years

Tyranids are now everyones problem

I want to hear your favourite examples of domino effects in 40k

Alright, so specific example. You mentioned before Taliesin doesn't like animal cruelty, would he interfere with the LDB if they tried to hurt an animal for what (Taliesin would assume) would be personal pleasure?

Currently LDB is chasing town Barabus and trying to ice spike the dog, but Taliesin doesn't know the dog is a vessel to the Daedric prince. Would he try and stop them from hurting what he thinks is an innocent animal?

I hope to implement some responses to Taliesin witnessing the LDB killing animals. If they were hunting animals just for fun, he'd be very upset by this. He'll be a little more understanding if it was for survival, but sticks to his vegetarian diet.

Barbus is Taliesin's own little worse nightmare.

Dog? Check!

Daedric entity? Double check!

Cue screaming and freaking out!

[everybodyloveshippos]

it took me 2 secs to clock barabus the grey or whatever his name is as artemis (partially due to knowing general stuff) and oh my god. glad to be back w the funniest bitch in the forgotten realms . king of being sarcastic and over it in situations where he shouldnt be

[shaydh]

Which of her fellow Nos does Bug hate the least, and why?

I feel like she’d be friends with Barabus, because he’s just a chill dude :) You get +10 disposition with Bug for being a Nos, so she’s friendlier around the warrens. Probably has some tension with Imalia though

[inquisitornocturn]

Would you be willing to do a NSFW alphabet for Barabus?

I'm shocked to learn I was the only one thirsting after him all these years. I expected to see more fandom stuff about that fit nerdy Jason Statham Nosferatu.

I am not taking suggestions at the moment, but what a choice!!!

Also, Jason Satham Nosferatu is cracking me up😂 You're right about that, and I wish he was a little bit more in a game. Between you and me, I like him (and Bertram) way more than Gary👀

Just Nossy things

[Decided to assign the Nosferatu to some of the things my cousins said while I was babysitting them today]

~Gary- *Drinking boba tea for the first time* This is actually really good. *gets a tapioca through the straw* This is bad! This is SO BAD!!

~Barabus- *In a whisper* Dog…be my best friend…

~Imalia: Stop it!

Mitnick: I’m just kissing your arm.

Imalia: But you’ve been eating spaghetti!

~Bertram- *While selecting Sephiroth on Smash Bros. * I’m gonna be Stephasaurus. He’s the strongest character.
