Alba gu bràth!
One more year, same celebratory tune, on Saint Andrew's Day:
youtube
Happy Saint Andrew's Day to all Scots, Scottish shippers and, just like last year, to this madness that brought us all here!
And happy birthday to Shipper Mom, too - probably Scotland's biggest fan East of Berlin and the OG careless zapping shipper who started it all.
Today was a special, even if somewhat quiet & subdued day. It was certainly made brighter by a completely unexpected, delicate gesture I wanted to acknowledge here, too:
You know who you are. Thank you, truly.

So fun fact; I actually started this back in 2020 and only finished it in August of this year >_>
If I did come back to this, I want to make sure I put more of Noir's classic outfit into it. This piece was actually mixed Media in the end, using watercolour pencils, gouache and alcohol markers (the paper didn't lend itself for the latter and my line art pens, which made things...interesting)
Yes, I will keep up the Kilt Agenda™️ for as long as I can, shuddup!
Also, fun fact: The plaid is a reference to Psychokinesis Skills

FEAST OF SAINT ANDREW, APOSTLE
From a catechesis by Pope Benedict XVI, Andrew, the Protoclete, 14 June 2006
The Gospel traditions mention Andrew's name in particular on another three occasions that tell us something more about this man. The first is that of the multiplication of the loaves in Galilee. On that occasion, it was Andrew who pointed out to Jesus the presence of a young boy who had with him five barley loaves and two fish: not much, he remarked, for the multitudes who had gathered in that place (cf. Jn 6: 8-9).
In this case, it is worth highlighting Andrew's realism. He noticed the boy, that is, he had already asked the question: "but what good is that for so many?" (ibid.), and recognized the insufficiency of his minimal resources. Jesus, however, knew how to make them sufficient for the multitude of people who had come to hear him.
The second occasion was at Jerusalem. As he left the city, a disciple drew Jesus' attention to the sight of the massive walls that supported the Temple. The Teacher's response was surprising: he said that of those walls not one stone would be left upon another. Then Andrew, together with Peter, James and John, questioned him: "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign when these things are all to be accomplished?" (Mk 13: 1-4).
In answer to this question Jesus gave an important discourse on the destruction of Jerusalem and on the end of the world, in which he asked his disciples to be wise in interpreting the signs of the times and to be constantly on their guard.
From this event we can deduce that we should not be afraid to ask Jesus questions but at the same time that we must be ready to accept even the surprising and difficult teachings that he offers us.
Lastly, a third initiative of Andrew is recorded in the Gospels: the scene is still Jerusalem, shortly before the Passion. For the Feast of the Passover, John recounts, some Greeks had come to the city, probably proselytes or God-fearing men who had come up to worship the God of Israel at the Passover Feast. Andrew and Philip, the two Apostles with Greek names, served as interpreters and mediators of this small group of Greeks with Jesus.

O BONA CRUX! quae decorem ex membris Domini suscepisti, diu desiderata, sollicite amata, sine intermissione quaesita, et aliquando cupienti animo praeparata: accipe me ab hominibus, et redde me magistro meo: ut per te me recipiat, qui per te me redemit. Amen.
O GOOD CROSS! made precious by the Body of my Lord, long have I desired thee; ardently have I loved thee; unceasingly have I sought thee; and now, thou art ready for my eager soul. Receive me from among men, and restore me to my beloved Master. By thee O Cross, Christ redeemed me, so too by thee, may He receive me. Amen.
