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.

I was dating Jesus and his 12 disciples and then they turned into jars of peanut butter.

Day 5: Disciples

Aka "The Lamb's Flock" + a few strays and Yuki.

Someone told me that the story of why the Lamb didn't want the role of the crown bearer looked like they draw it and was something they told the young about and I couldn't take that image out of my mind.

I love my lamb, they deserve the happy carefree life they got.

Mark 8:34 (NKJV) - When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, “Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.

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.

Verse of the Day - Mark 6:31-32

Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Spirit

1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2 And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him from out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

3 who had his dwelling among the tombs. And no man could bind him, no, not even with chains,

4 because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him and the fetters broken in pieces; neither could any man tame him.

5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped Him,

7 and cried with a loud voice, and said, “What have I to do with Thee, Jesus, Thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure Thee by God that Thou torment me not!”

8 For He had said unto him, “Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.”

9 And Jesus asked him, “What is thy name?” And he answered, saying, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”

10 And he besought Him much that He would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

12 And all the devils besought Him, saying, “Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.”

13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out and entered into the swine; and the herd ran violently down a steep place and into the sea (they were about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.

14 And those who fed the swine fled, and told it in the city and in the country. And the people went out to see what it was that had been done.

15 And they came to Jesus, and saw him that had been possessed by the devil and had the legion, sitting and clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

16 And those who saw it told the people what had befallen him that was possessed by the devil, and also concerning the swine.

17 And they began to pray Him to depart from their borders.

18 And when He had gotten into the boat, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed Him that he might be with Him.

19 But Jesus suffered him not, and said unto him, “Go home to thy friends, and tell them what great things the Lord hath done for thee, and how He hath had compassion on thee.”

20 And he departed and began to proclaim in Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him. And all men marveled. — Mark 5:1-20 | 21st Century King James Version (KJV21) The Holy Bible; 21st Century King James Version Copyright © 1994 by Deuel Enterprises, Inc.

Notes: Mark 5:1-20 is a story in the Bible about Jesus exorcising a demoniac man in a cemetery on the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee. The story is the longest and most complex of the exorcisms in the Gospel of Mark.

Jesus breaks out the condemnents.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is one of my longest comics yet!  It was grueling to carefully pen all twelve panels with meticulous attention to pacing and love in every digital brushstroke, but I hope you guys know that I'd do anything to bring you the absolute HIGHEST quality cartoons I'm capable of making!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: Jesus tells His disciples that they are the salt of the earth, called to be honorable and valuable to God, but if they don't live up to their calling, they'll be like salt that loses its taste, losing that value in turn.  Jesus asks them, "If salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned?"  One disciple pipes up and recommends ketchup, though the question was rhetorical.  So strange is this answer, and so rhetorical was the question, that Jesus simply stares at the disciple for 9 panels straight before saying that ketchup was not the answer to the -- once again -- rhetorical question.
