and nothing helps, no amount of rest, no green teas, no walks in nature. I bleed on paper and it smells like roses, roses full of thorns, thorns digging into my chest, and I bleed on paper. And the next morning, I find the words too cringe and the roses look like dried blood, clotted into me, heart full of clots. And the night comes again, and you ask me how I am. I tell you nothing helps, not the walks, not the teas, no rest. And I bleed on paper.

Quando criança, eu estava sempre buscando o significado disso tudo, o "grande porquê"; e meu pai sempre me dizia que não havia um grande propósito, mas hoje eu comi a laranja mais madura e dei um beijo de boa noite em meu gato, acho que isso é próposito suficiente por um dia.

(guy who has never played cotl) haha au time
#this started as a design exercise bc i couldnt get sphinx/devon rex narinder out of my head#but the whole time i was thinking man imagine if the lamb brings him in as a follower but nobody knows he was actually. you know#and the followers are like haha wow our leader channels the power and wisdom of the one who waits almost as if they were them#would that be cool or what. anyway heres narinder reassuming his pre-bishop form and everything his flesh remembers before godhood#ok now im gonna ramble abt design notes#the singe marks were inspired by fallen angels like how some ppl say they burned while falling from heaven. i wanted smth like that when#the lamb is resurrected by nari.. their outfit is inspired by papal cloaks while narinders is based on crusader armor#the lambs name 'bellwether' is also a term used for sheep that wear a bell and lead the flock and i thought that was cool#idk what the thuribles do yet but i do have smth in mind where theyre linked together. and ofc the lamb has a shepherds staff#very proud of nari's little devil tail!! and it was hard to see bc its so dark but he has wrinkles around his forehead to conceal his#third eye. even he isnt aware of it (for now)#idk where im going with this au i just have a bunch of ideas?? basically the lamb is keeping nari's identity a secret from him so he doesnt#go down that path of powerhungry destruction. smth like trying to lead him down a better path but feels guilty lying to do that#also theyre in love with each other and theyre stupid pining idiots abt it. mwah#cult of the lamb#cotl#cotl lamb#cotl narinder#the one who waits#cotl the one who waits#narilamb#art#au#myart#my art#character design#cotl au#false prophet! au

Crystal and Niko assigning Charles and Edwin to specific jobs whenever there’s cooking occurring
Their inability to taste or feel temperature means they can’t do a lot of things but there are certain tasks that over time become Theirs, largely, to be honest, because the girls don’t want to do them.
Edwin grates the last part of the cheese (and anything else that needs grating/mandoline slicing/etc) because he has excellent control over his corporeality and can reliably hold onto the cheese without grating himself
Charles cuts all the onions (and other vicious alliums) because, well, it not like it’s gonna make him cry
Crystal’s thrilled when she realizes she can assign frying tasks to the ghost boys and never get burned by boiling oil again
Edwin says that Charles feels that it’s rather rude to make them prepare all of the food when they can’t eat any. The girls don’t particularly care.
(The boys don’t actually mind that much either. The actual food is only a tiny fraction of what's important about a family meal, after all.)

spoiler warning for close to the end of veilguard!!
De Riva Rook and Viago having that annoyed sibling energy in their relationship is everything to me always, but it also just makes me think about Lucanis having to inform Viago about Rook missing and trapped in the fade post-tearstone island.. and yeah…

OUGH call me Big Shane Silva the way that episode had me falling over and torn into pieces fuuuuuuuuuck oh the Trudy and Francis heart-to-heart... The group hug... The gunkata... The middle-aged witch yuri... The hole in the stars... MAN.
#dndads#the peachyville horror#GAHHHH TAG RAMBLE AS ALWAYS THIS SEASON IG#Also sidenote I kinda needed to relax a bit after work to get into the episode so I grabbed a beer from the brand ''good robot''#in Trudy's honor hehe#Anyways yeah I always love going through the tag and reading everyone else's impressions afterwards#And like a lot of you I mean fuck that episode was SO funny but those last few minutes almost had me in tears of the sad variety#Almost! Agh that was so good#But the bits this episode were insane#Unfortunately I'm a really big sucker for jokes getting beaten into the ground so I'm really weak to Freddie's shit#And truly only laughed harder each time he did a BIG SHANE SILVA quip#Fuck on that note lowkey too bad that he died I was kind of curious what would come of his whole deal#But! Definitely a win for Francis that he's out of the picture#Speaking of Francis- YIPPEE HE LIVES!#Fuck the wrack sisters part was so good (also guys the spell is wrack with a w haha but I mean. 😏 in our hearts it's rack)#Matt's so real for making up a version of Kamonwan through a bit and growing attached to her he's just like me fr#Also not to ship Kelsey with everyone she meets but. 👀 I'm looking respectfully.#Oh but MAN the part about Kelsey temporarily switching with another version of herself from a world where the hour of the hole comes to pas#That was FUCKED oh man now *that's* the juicy cosmic horror shit that gets me#Also loved the more direct nods to this mysterious god from below and the confirmation of its ties to fire/burning-#I can't remember what I wrote on that many episodes ago in my pure conspiracy theory rambles but I've lowkey been waiting on this#<- But that's just for me. I'm excited about the pantheon getting fleshed out is all.#Still waiting on the maggot wh0re to make an appearance... *I* haven't forgotten about you maggot wh0re...#Fuck okay anyways I think that's it for now lmao good episode good episode AH AND SALLY DOG IN 2 WEEKS YESSS#dungeons and daddies#spoiled peaches#francis farnsworth#trudy trout#kelsey grammar

I love the way you draw Shadow Milk, he looks cool.
I have a question about the other beasts if you'd be comfortable answering, how is Burning Spice doing after being Dejammed? Along with Mystic Flour?
thank you!! im happy to hear that!!
and funny thing you ask about other beasts, because im currently working on a short comic focused on burning spice, while also figuring out the exact stuff with mystic flour. so for now i can give some brief info about these two
burning spice
this is a man of action, meaning him sitting around and doing nothing is an absolute torture (corrupted out of boredom etc etc etc). too bad thats all he can do now that he is stuck with the remnants of golden cheese kingdom which is being rebuilt. he is constantly under watch obviously, and everyone keeps distance because of what happened. but despite the first outbursts of rage and breaking some parmesan rocks early on, he is currently just sitting there. ofc the rage is still bubbling but, he cant really do anything considering how little power he has left. at least watching the cheesebirds scramble around is Something. still, their efforts in rebuilding the ruined kingdom is futile, he knows it will mean nothing in the end (how many times has he seen it already)... unless?
mystic flour
losing her soul jam shook her deeply, which is already unacceptable by itself. this woman isnt dealing well with getting dejammed, despite how it looks at first. the apathy she managed to reach crumbled, much to her frustrations. and the more she is frustrated, the worse it gets, its a cycle honestly. so she is putting in most of her energy into meditating, trying to reach the apathy again. which makes her surprisingly easy to keep track of, mystic flour doesnt try to wander around much, she either meditates in her assigned chamber/confinement, or in an outside pagoda when she requests for that. the main trouble for everyone is that the cloud haetae came with her, and considering how they behaved back at the ivory pagoda, everyone is on edge. who knows if theyre not spying whenever they can. still, aside from that small hiccup, mystic flour is a very unproblematic, if not extremely unnerving prisoner. but who knows if (or when) it might change

They cut down my favourite tree, the tree of my childhood. Lichen grew on its trunk and squirrels climbed its branches. And they ask girls why we’re angry, so full of rage, dormant volcanoes. The tree was my childhood and its branches my god, the tree was my childhood and its roots my tether, its leaves my dreams. The tree was my childhood and they cut it down. They ask me why I’m angry and I ask them to regrow my tree, give me back my girlhood.
