Daily reminder that Jesus would have flipped a majority of Republican politicians tables!! Making profit off of God and the word of God is exactly what the merchants did to get their table flipped.

Fic idea: Jiang Cheng was cursed to say and do what he really feels for a day.

He caresses Wei Wuxian's cheeks and says how proud he is of him. He hugs Jin Ling and confesses that he's the center of his world. He praises his disciples and expresses how happy he is for staying with him. He swam around the lotus pond on only his inner robes as he always dreams of doing. He sweet-talked Lan Xichen out of seclusion. He glared at Lan Wangji and told him to get lost.

Eastern Orthodox Shark Week.

JOKE-OGRAPHY: This comic features a famous episode from the Bible where Jesus walks on water to get to His disciples' boat, which is stuck in a storm.  In this cartoon, however, Jesus is accompanied by a new disciple, a megalodon (giant shark) named Mary.  He calls her "Mary Megalodon," which sounds like "Mary Magdalene," another of Jesus's loyal disciples (the woman who's stowed away in the last panel).  Mary Megalodon is not actually in the canonical books of the Bible.

Christ on the Road to Emmaus

Artist: Jacques Stella (French, 1596-1657)

Date: 17th century

Medium: Oil on canvas

On the Road to Emmaus | Luke 24: 14-24, NIV

Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him.

He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?”

They stood still, their faces downcast. One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”

“What things?” he asked.

“About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place. In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning but didn’t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.”

Robert Goldston - Satan's Disciples - New English Library - 1969

Does anyone ever think about a concept where Nightmare and Dream have their own guardians?? Like let's say something happens like a big battle and both of them get put into a deep sleep. As a way to naturally protect themselves (because enemies are everywhere) they create their own guardians.

The guardians or disciples as I'm thinking of calling them, would protect their respective sleeping "father" with all their hearts. Growing up with the purpose to never allow the past to happen again. They would never know the true past of their "father" but get inklings through instincts and maybe even dreams. Disciples would take on an appearance based on what each respective twin needed in their lives beforehand. Like a natural self healing.

Nightmare's disciples would be more viciously coded and given stronger thicker bones for protecting, given features that allude to freedom and the ability to escape. Like wings and claws for example. They would be his guards and freedom from his place as the guardian of negativity.

Dreams would be alluding to his need to calm and let go. Gentle beings that would help heal his mind and gently coax him into letting go of his past. Figures very much like the mother he lost, but still able to protect him at any cost. A sharp set of mouths, and claws for defense. But stable minds to hold their "father" still. Two girls I think.

Just thoughts, maybe some doodles on the way.

The last supper (female- shower-papercut version)/ Berlin 2024. A group shooting with 13 wonderful ladies in the legendary Untergeschoss der Pandora Art Gallery/ Berlin Kreuzberg a few weeks ago. My inspiration is the famous Leonardo da Vinci painting (he made groups of 4x3 disciples around Jesus in the middle). Can you see Judas? Then tell me in the comments…

Zero has to spend the weekend away and someone must babysit Mikhail

Who does the best or worst job: the disciples or the intoners?

Okay, so without having seen the prologues, I'm going to have to go by vibes.

One - No. Do not leave her alone with the baby. It just seems like a bad idea, like maybe she's put him to work or something. Is one the type to start a mommy blog with someone else's child baby dragon? I feel that she would be.

Two - This would probably be fine. She and Cent would let Mikhail do whatever he wanted and spoil him rotten, but he would be safe enough and Two and Cent would enjoy getting to play house and would probably congratulate themselves on being amazing parents after Mikhail went home.

Three - No. She would get high and not watch him at all.

Four - She seems like the type to have read a bunch of babysitting books and she is very much like, "Don't worry, Sis! I've got this!" and then try to do crafts and other enriching activities with Mikhail, who just wants to roll around in mud. She will probably end the weekend by concluding she's a failure.

Five - I do not think she would do a good job. She would probably let him watch porn.

Dito - Also don't leave him alone with the baby. He's put Mikhail on a leash and ignore him all weekend, except to throw food at him periodically.

Decadus - He would do fine. He's serious-minded. They wouldn't have fun, but Mikhail would be perfectly safe.

Octa - Mikhail would probably actually be safe and cared for for the most part, but Octa would use him to pick up chicks and make Mikhail take a preposterous number of naps while he "entertains" his guests.

Cent - See Two.

So it looks like, overall, a greater percentage of disciples than intoners could be trusted with Mikhail for the weekend.

The Scout, the Captain and the Veteran: a trio of Darkspawn Disciples loyal to the Architect in my fic.

"That's why I must help. They're like children, come into the world with no concept of 'good', 'bad' or 'fair'. They have a bestial nature but I've seen them overcome it. They only need to be shown how." - Seranni

They all miss Utha and Seranni very much 😥.
