People who *still* insist Russia is defending against NATO expansionism, and that's why they had to bomb, pillage, and rape their way across Ukraine for the past three years, deserve a special place in hell.

purple hawke who, at malcolm's death, lost not only a father, a mentor, the single most stable and safe point in their world up until this moment. but also the only person in their life who would consistently, gleefully 'yes, and — ' them. the loss, in one fell swoop, of both a beloved parent and your sole willing — no, not only willing, enthusiastic — improv partner. truly, the most unkindest cut of all that the maker could have seen fit to deal. (there's always so much less laughter in the house, after malcolm's gone.)

and then after all the horrors of the blight and trying to make a new life in the shithole turned shithome of kirkwall....... they meet varric. and something that's been slumbering deep within their soul dries a tear of relief and joy and whispers 'oh we are so back'. and they are so right

If you didn't hear, Solemm Simulacrum (AKA Sad Robot) has been unfortunately eviscerated as of Modern Horizons 3. Please join me in drawing a card during this moment of silence, per the death trigger of our dearly departed. Truly, we are the Solemn ones now.

Anything daisuke !!! Please I love that sunshine boy

Yet the Sun Still Rises

The beds on the Tulpar are really just shit. A box of cardboard would be more comfortable than the decrepit mattress they found in bulk at an estate sale. But at least they were beds.

Now all you have are scattered blankets and a thread-bare pillow. Exhaustion drags at your face, especially around your eyes, where gravity lays extra thick. It's hard to sleep with all the sounds of a dying spaceship, of people struggling to hang on just one more day.

You rub the back of your hand to your tired eyes, then rest it atop your forehead. Maybe you're getting sick; you should talk with Anya when it's "day" again.

A face presses to your neck.

You don't even flinch at this point, just curling your arm around Daisuke's neck as he molds himself into your side. It's unspoken, but well known, the need for comfort on both sides. So you drag the tips of your fingers over his face, tracing his features, before carefully carding them through his hair.

"It's. . ." Daisuke can barely be heard over the hum of broken machinery. You rub at your eyes again to distract yourself from it all, but to no avail. "It's another day tomorrow."

"Hm. And another. And another. And another."

The arms curled around your waist tighten their hold. "It's going to be a lot of days here." He pauses, turning further into your neck like he can hide from the reality of it. "It's gonna be the rest of our days here."

"Maybe." You whisper. "Or maybe they're on their way."

"Maybe." Daisuke hums.

It's not often the optimism fails, but the artificial darkness (or perhaps this is the real darkness, the light the only false thing-), fears creep up your spine and latch at the base of your brain. Is this it? The rest of your days living like this, hoping for nothing?

You don't like that possibility. You choose to believe something else.

But what else is there to believe?

"I want the rest of my days to be with you." Daisuke says, startling you with how. . . certain he sounds. "M-maybe it'll be here. Or maybe we'll go home. You could meet my parents." Guilt is crushing your throat. "They'll like you. A lot."

"I like you." You say through the lump in your throat. "A lot."

There's a smile against your skin, soft and warm and precious.

You choose to believe in the sun rising again.

Wishing you all a blessed Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus!

JOKE-OGRAPHY:

1. The Sacred Heart: In Catholic tradition, the month of June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a devotion which sees Jesus's heart as a symbol of God's boundless love for humanity. Moreover, the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is being celebrated today (June 7th) this year.

2. Original Imagery: The Sacred Heart is depicted as a human heart wreathed by thorns (like Jesus's crown of thorns) and divine flames/light, with a bleeding wound in the side (a reference to Jesus's postmortem spear-wound), and topped off with a cross (for obvious reasons).

3. My Imagery: In this piece, I depict the Sacred Heart in three stages, separating the symbolism into simple parts and relating them to Jesus's Passion, death, and resurrection.

4. Wordplay: A few years ago, I was struck by the similarity between the words scared, scarred, and sacred, and knew I had to use them together for some kind of wordplay. I just didn't know what kind of wordplay would fit. I usually use my wordsmithing for dumb jokes, but this felt like it needed a different approach, so I waited and wondered until an idea finally hit me just in time for the Month of the Sacred Heart!

5. Fun-Fact: I think this piece marks the first time I've depicted Jesus crucified in Tomics. It's not in my usual style or tone, but that's because those are geared towards comedy, and this is meant to be reverent.

"It's unrealistic!"

Remus' name is Remus Lupin and he's a werewolf. His dad's name is Lyall and his mum's name is Hope Howell. Nothing, and I do mean nothing we could cook up would ever be as unserious as canon.
