Narilamb dancing doodles I made on art streams this last week, mainly trying to get the motion in mind for the Anchordeep Ballroom scene (its a lot easier writing motion and movement when you have a visual reference)
Also ngl I keep listening to 'Forbidden Friendship' from HTTYD for this scene because the build up from ' mock dance invitation' to 'timidly testing the waters' to 'actually having tons of fun dancing' to 'climatic pause after the dip + tension' fits REALLY well
also little bonus:
#trod au#the rehabilitation of death#trod spoilers#just in case#narilamb#narinder x lamb#cult of the lamb#doodles#the crown doesnt talk in this scene but the narrative explains that their excitment made the magic go haywire a bit#makes the already glass building become unsturdy

The lamb keeps a braid as a way to honor the death of those who couldn't make it. Usually they have time to braid it but they take long because they're bad at it. They've got a sermon in 5. Favours for favours. Ps: Narinder isn't hiding his eyes, not exactly. But he is hiding something.

Han Sooyoung showed up for 500 chapters and spent every single one of them assembling cults. she loooves to walk into a room and go 'hi I'm here to solve all your problems and I have the answer to every question you've ever asked, all you have to do is trust me ^_^' and the whole time she is rolled outta bed eyes crusty no clean jeans no money in the wallet style LYING. the avatar skill can take whatever memories it wants but it can never take away the fact that she is a LYING ASS BITCH WITH NO GAME. I want her to throw a lit cigarette at me.
#han sooyoung#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#my posts#yeah I'm orvposting again dw abt it#this was gonna be a super good analysis about the author role as it pertains to nonfiction narratives like Cult Leader but im simply silly

so sick and tired of the “jedi are an evil and abusive cult that steals children” as if half the reason they weren’t protecting these children is bc sith were out killing them or TURNING THEM INTO SITH. they weren’t even STEALING children to begin with I thought we all knew that was Palpatine’s game not Yoda’s.
#i hate star wars fans i truly do#they wanna pick apart the jedi like of course there are mistakes and wrong doings#bUT THE SITH ARE RIGHT THERE#trying to build the narrative that anakin was abused by the jedi is absolutely crazy when his actions and thoughts were all his own#and GROOMED by palpatine#the only reason people want to pin them as bad people is because yoda could call out anakin’s bad behavior#that and they didnt promote him to master right away because oh im the chosen one i should be#like you need to PROVE you are the chosen one and that you WILL bring balance to the force and NOT DESTROY IT#THATS FHE WHOLE PROPHECY#AND PEOPLE WONDER WHY THEY WERE CAREFUL WITH ANAKIN???#and then the oh well they make you supress feelings#nO#THEY#DONT#they make you surpress attachments so that if it comes DOWN to it you will save the many and not just risk it all to save the ONE#disney has done damage to the star wars community i swear#saw a tik tok comment section where they said the council is like the christian church#lost my MIND#well the jedi fit cult criteria!!#wow! star wars fans find out WHAT A GROUP OF RELIGION IS#LITERALLY ANY GROUP OF RELIGION CAN BE CALLED A CULT NOT EVERY CULT IS BAD#im sorry i cant stand it anymore#star wars#star wars tcw#auxxrat yap#jedi council#jedi#star wars legends

no-sburb aus are so fucking stupid to write bc so much worldbuilding is tied up to that green rainbow-eyed motherfucker. how do you even twist alternia to make sense without his influence. im jumping through the hoops and landing face-first on the pavement and exploding into fairy dust
#why are juveniles building their own hives if sgrub doesnt happen in-universe?#how the juggalo cult of mirthful messaiah came into being??#even the fuxking gl'bgolyb HOW DID SHE GET HERE WITHOUT DOC SCRATCH#you just cannot take out this mf outta the narrative hes already here and hes here to STAY

Charles Leclerc is my favourite driver not because he's hot or he's babygirl or whatever. He's my sacrificial lamb. He's god's favourite offering. His fur is soft and his eyes have a look that say "doomed since the beginning". Every Sunday the blade meets his throat and he bears no resistance. He's catholic guilt personified
#love a man that's ruined by the narrative#he's gouging and tearing at god's flesh and god is flicking him off like he's a fly on her food#charles leclerc#ferrari#scuderia ferrari#f1 ferrari#the cult of ferrari#cl16#formula 1#formula one

hey do you guys remember razias shadow? cause i just did
#context: it was a 2008 high fantasy concept musical that got internet cult popular#the original (it was a puppet show?) is functionally lost media but the album is still in all the usual streaming places#and was very niche beloved for a while. the lyrics are not well written at all and are unrelentingly awkward#but it's very well composed and the melodies stick with you for a long time#and the overarching narrative is compelling even if its brazenly and bold facedly just doing an abridgment of the silmarillion#actually maybe i like it BECAUSE its just the silmarillion. as a weird charmingly awkward cult operatic musical#if you want to check it out but arent sure if youll like it start with the track 'holy the sea'#its the best music the album has to offer and it also gives you an accurate first impression of the overall feel to the musical#if you like it then start back at the beginning and listen through. if you dont like it then you wont like the rest#anyway#hi these are my designs that ive had for like 5 years. i think they should be little guys#razia's shadow#my art#also. brendon urie jumpscare warning. and also. oldschool high fantasy type misogyny

So do you guys actually think that Jason's entire story, relationship to the others, and philosophy amounts to him being a rebellious teen who wants his dad's attention? Like are you 100% serious? I thought you were joking about that but too many of you are saying it with your whole chest.
And what the fuck is this "Bruce antagonizing Jason is fanon!" Shit I've been seeing? You guys are aware that a parent can love their kid and still be a shit parent right? I know you guys don't want to fathom the thought that maybe your blorbo might also occasionally have to face responsibility for consistently endangering children but let's not start being delusional now.
Bruce does love his kids, that doesn't mean that he hasn't hurt them. And I'd also argue that for the most part he feels in the right for it, and he's said multiple times that he believes it's for their own good, so you can't even argue that he's sorry about it. It's okay for you guys to admit that your PERSONAL INTERPRETATION of the character wouldn't do that but don't sit here and pretend that it's not a facet of the source.
#you can argue meta until you're blue in the face#but I can't ignore the ingerent abuse of Batman and Robin because DC is always drawing attention to it#Stephanie and Jason directly died because of Robin#Stephanie wanted to impress Bruce to live up to his idea of a sidekick and prove her worth#Sheila only sold Jason out when she found out he was Robin#Damians life certainly got worse when he became Robin/moved with Bruce#if you bring up racist retcons I'll kill you btw#how are we supposed to read children dying and being tortured and traumatized constantly#and just ignore that these are children#I can ignore the reality of child sidekicks in campy light hearted early comics#but if DC wants to deal with serious topic they're going to have to deal with some serious implications too#Also that post that's going around about “Bruce loves Jason and it's Jason who's causing all the animosity” is such bullshit#what the fuck are you even talking about#and let's not act like Jason is the ONLY one at fault and Bruce is just a poor loving father#is Bruce spreading that utter bullshit about Jason's death and who he was not an act of violence?#was he not the one to cast the first stone by disgracing Jason's legacy and using a version of him that never existed as a cautionary tale#and I know some of you are going to argue that with most of the kids there's nothing Bruce could have done to stop them#and this is the one time in which I will ignore all the very real ways that he could have#but I still think that in universe the characters have a right to be angry about it#Jason always since his debut as red hood been a vehicle for calling out Bruce#he's so heavily steeped in meta narrative because his run is when they started dealing with the real BAD cases#The Cult Garzonas onscreen murders were getting more common#AND NO ONE CAN CONVINCE ME THAT BEING ROBIN DIDN'T MAKE JASON'S LIFE WORSE#THERE WAS NO REASON TO MAKE HIM ROBIN HE COULD HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY AS JUST A NORMAL KID#But Bruce made having a place in his home synonymous with being Robin because the narrative dictated it had to be#what was homeless orphan Jason going to do? say no?#it was basically coercion and it doomed him and he has every right to blame the adult that put him in that position#dc#bruce wayne critical#bat family

I have sooo many questions abt the reincarnation au.
1. Does bot contracts stay through each incarnation, the first one-Where bill is a familiar and has a physical body is there but what about the marriage one along with the bill tattoo
2. If the second-marriage- contract stays does the bill-shaped tattoo stay as well and is it like the birthmark where it pops up in different places?
3. Is dipper being an illusionist the same in each incarnation?
4. Does dipper gain all his memories of each life or just the first dippers memories?
5. How many years between each incarnation (other than the 18 years after he’s born)?
6. Can the reincarnation spell be redacted if dipper no longer wants to be reincarnated?
7. Does dipper ever gain his memories before meeting bill(and if he does, does he psyche himself up to be some sort of hero that is destined to protect humanity, but slowly realises his past self fell in love so now hes screwed/pissed)?
Thats it! Chapter six was soo good and my suggestion is ‘Silent Devotion’ as the ao3 name!! Have a good day💕💕
The first contract - the familiar one - definitely! The marriage contract is also.. mostly in place? Reincarnation makes some of the terms wibbly.
No tattoo for the reincarnations - Bill's gotta reapply it if he wants to slip the ol' wedding circle back on.
Maybe? Or maybe not!
Dipper gets all the memories back eventually - but his first life is always going to be the most clear and powerful. That's where he started after all!
The time between death and rebirth could be anything from near-instantaneously to a few decades. Depends on what's going on in the afterlife.
Bill almost certainly made the reincarnation contract pretty wiggle-proof. There's no way he's just letting Dipper escape. That being said, Dipper's probably figured out a way to get out if he really wanted to. He hasn't taken it yet, and may not ever!
He could get the memories back pre-Bill, for sure! This is actually a pretty interesting premise, too; A Dipper who wonders how the FUCK he could EVER fall for such an evil conniving jackass, only to finally meet Bill and have that 'Uh Oh' moment.
#Answers#A lot of the reincarnation rules aren't solid so much as they are#“What would make the most interesting story to write”#Law of Narrative Convenience is definitely in play! Along with Whatever's Funniest#That's a good title suggestion btw#And thank you for enjoying Cult AU! It was fun to write so I was hoping people would like it

My actual Dragon Age hot take is that the series has yet to do a single actually interesting story about/centered around dragons.
#okay fine there's the Andrastian cult in Origins that's decent#but literally ever since they're big scaly bonus bosses of no narrative consequence whatsoever#the name is stolen valor imo#dragon age
