i often think my current goth lifestyle came out of nowhere considering i was afraid of everything as a child, including like, goosebumps covers (i never read them bc they looked too scary) but then i remember my deep fascination and borderline obsession with funeral traditions and burial rites has been there since i was like 9 years old playing zelda windwaker and carefully stopping to arrange all the dropped weapons from all the enemies i killed in X shapes around the room in respectful memory of my defeated foes and i remember how i had a model set of an egyptian mummy who could be opened to remove his plastic organs and had bandages to wrap him in and how much i loved and cared for my little dead man n then i realize i may have always been like this actually
#i still have him somewhere#i remember i was disappointed that the set didnt actually have canopic jars#i think it had the heads of the gods that went on them but the jars were just paper or something?#anyway i thought it was improper and disrespectful to him bc i knew organs were supposed to go in canopic jars#i vividly remember sitting in class reading a book about egypt and learning the. thing about stirring brains up n draining it out the nose#and immediately needing to know Everything about mummies#anyway i now have even more elaborate death rituals for skyrim. like. i have. so many#i leave a ruby and a nightshade or deathbell by any named character i killed#and i take a ring or dagger or something from them and enchant it with their name and put it in a special cabinet#i leave other flowers and sometimes gems if i find a named corpse that i didnt kill#i have a display in one house of enchanted weapons from npcs i Knew and liked who died#and an entire memorial shrine set up in the brotherhood sanctuary for my fallen comrades#its a Whole Thing. thats not even all of it either
