Jesus I Trust in You!

We found these at the estate sale of a local veteran. They were on a paracord, and I wonder if these weren't the medals he wore in combat. I almost hate to split them up and can't help but wonder what he would have wanted.

The medals are in the tags.

Personal piece I finished this morning.

after what Aabria said about the Dictator having flat teeth in the front and back, and the preview shot of a stoat in a gas mask, I’m starting to get SERIOUS Animal Farm vibes. The animals in charge becoming human-like (in animal farm, the pigs living in the house and walking on hind legs; in burrows end, the first stoats having molars, wearing gas masks) as they take on the role of the thing they sought to destroy. And given the Soviet era influences I don’t think it would be that much of a leap.

it is 4am on a saturday night/sunday morning and i’m in a writing mood

okay maybe too much anyways enjoy

alright so yeah if you saw my previous posts and read my paragraphs i gave basically some small summaries of the dynamic that goes on here between ruikasa, i wanted to elaborate on that more because yeah au brainrot

rui starts off as this student who’s always doing little shenanigans, whether it be tinkering with his machines, practicing more advanced spells, skipping classes a since he already knows the material well, all that. he’s often been caught in the library slacking, in which he tries (and somehow succeeds) in being smart and smug about it. he’s most caught by tsukasa, which is why he always has just the right excuses ready for him, since messing with a student who’s part of the council is uh..yeah, walking on eggshells with that one buddy

tsukasa’s the vice president of the student council so he’s very busy, and he occasionally ends up in the library to drop off stuff for teachers. he’s a really bright and social student, also the one who people reach out to the most when they need their issues addressed, as he’s the easiest to find when it comes to the council (also because ms president asahina mafuyu is a little scary).

now jumping into his early relationship with rui. he catches rui slacking in the library like every other time he heads there, which he does a little frequently to return some stuff for staff. of course trying to be a good student he scolds him every time he catches him. which is often. and rui just responds smugly and goes about his day. only other time tsukasa ever encounters rui is in potions, the one class they share together. though tsukasa never really makes conversation since he’s busy both with the assignment and helping other classmates. either way rui’s not even there half the time.

generally around first semester they have some sort of rivalry. somewhat troublemaking student with THAT guy right there.

that is until one day rui sees tsukasa out in the courtyard, by himself, rather than surrounded by other students at the academy or what were assumed to be his friends. just sitting there on a bench by himself. his expression not being what was usually shown during class hours either. rui, someone who’s basically alone all the time since students actively avoid him for being "weird and strange," noticed this and thought that something was up, but he wasn’t sure. perhaps tsukasa just wasn’t feeling well? no no, rui knows the face of someone who’s lonely when he’s wore it so much himself. he was just wondering as to why tsukasa would even feel that way when he’s so popular. to be fair, with tsukasa it was like..people only ever knew how he acted in front of a large group. he’s like, so well known yet unknown at the same time, kind of. so out of curiosity rui goes and talks to him.

when he first does tsukasa immediately pulls back up the bright student look. in hopes that he would seem alright. or in his mind not to seem vulnerable in front of someone else. rui, skeptical, questions him about how he looked earlier. tsukasa brushes it off as being ill, before rui just casually admits that he knows what feeling lonely is like, so that tsukasa wouldn’t need to hide it. which allows tsukasa to let himself a little more loose. as they keep talking for a little, tsukasa at one point kind of accidentally projects onto rui all the issues he feels regarding his position and reputation, whoopsies! rui helps him out and comforts him, then they take their goodbyes and all that for the day. from that point forward they do try chatting a little more, and after like a week or two they decide to start becoming friends.

and doing things that normal friends don’t do

tsukasa’s homosapien awakening right here folks.

after like a month or two of befriending rui, tsukasa starts noticing uh..things going on with him that he doesn’t normally feel around other friends of his. like he wants to be spending more time with rui than normal, he feels himself getting a little more awkward when talking to him, and especially when rui teases him jokingly, just…."normal friend stuff!!!! yyeah..i’m not uh..oh..OH…….am..there is no WAY i’m gay for this guy..this guy right here..what……FUCK that explains so much shit"

rui realizes these feelings himself a little later, but is a lot, lot better at hiding it. at least compared to tsukasa. both are terrified to tell one another because of the fear that they might separate, so they hide it. tsukasa eventually steps up though, probably at the day of some event or whatever, he invited rui to go with him, yeah, all that..then when the time is right boom the most extra tsukasa style confession right there (i might actually write that one out..)

rui in absolute shock accepts and tjenb yay they finish the rest of the semester now in a relationship yay!!!!

okay that’s just gonna be the ruikasa stuff that i have planned out for now, came up with this au idea like yesterday so maybe expect more stuff besides from these two clowns

MEDAL OF THE ‘HOLY FACE OF JESUS’

(1 minute read)

The medal of the Holy Face of Jesus was promoted by Bl. Marie Pierina De Micheli upon the request of Jesus and our Blessed Mother. Bl. Marie Pierina, with the help of her spiritual Director, received the permission from the Curia of Milan, Italy.

In 1936, Our Lord told Bl. Mother Pierina: “𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑴𝒚 𝑭𝒂𝒄𝒆, 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝑴𝒚 𝑺𝒑𝒊𝒓𝒊𝒕, 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒖𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑴𝒚 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝒃𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒉𝒐𝒏𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅.

The Blessed Mother also told her: “𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒂𝒍 𝒊𝒔 𝒂 𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒑𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒅𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒆, 𝒂 𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒆𝒍𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆, 𝒂 𝒈𝒖𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒄𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒘𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒔𝒆𝒙𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒉𝒂𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝑮𝒐𝒅 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝒊𝒔 𝑪𝒉𝒖𝒓𝒄𝒉.

The front of the medal bears an image of the Holy Face from the Shroud of Turin and an inscription based on Psalm 119:135 “Illumina, Domine, vultum tuum super nos”, “May, O Lord, the light of Thy countenance shine upon us.” The other side of the medal bears an image of a radiant Sacred Host, the monogram of the Holy Name (“IHS”), and the inscription “Mane nobiscum, Domine” or “Stay with us, O Lord,” which are the words of the disciples on the road to Emmaus when they recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.
