Purpureo Sub Caelo
Sermon 1: Remissio
(A Grinning Cat Story)
How long had it been since they made their escape. It couldn't have been more than a few months, give or take. And yet, after all lf that time, Theodore was still taking everything in.
He had never seen such beauty. The trees, the fauna. The sky. All he had ever known were the blasphemous recreations of these things. To behold them in their true nature, that was nothing less than perfect.
Yet, he knew still that he was an outcast amongst everything in the forest. But he didn't mind. The simple truth is that he no longer cared. He was free. He was free, and he was right.
He was right...in one regard.
His best friend, his god, he was right when he said he'd lead them to freedom. All who opposed him weren't there to realize it, they had already been killed in his name, like the heretics they were.
That's what Theo thought they were, at least. Since his escape, he and his god haven't seen each other much. The only times they would ever interact was if it needed something, hiding itself as usual. And everytime, their meeting place gathered more and more corpses.
This bothered Theo. He hadn't thought of more followers in his cause, all he needed were already out there in the trees. The bodies, all without skin, hung from the branches of a giant oak. Most were local fauna, others clearly human. But why kill them? Besides the humans, what use would a woodland creature have to interact with something like the Prototype? It confused him.
Their latest meeting was incredibly brief, but urgent. It was the Dog. He was thought to be rotting back in their former prison, but he seemed to have escaped. Theo was shocked, but he had a feeling that would happen. Belts don't last forever. And so, he was ordered to find him and finish him off. It couldn't have something like the Dog roaming around, he went against it, and therefore should perish.
After about a week of searching, he found the Dog. He was resting by a fire, a fox, deer, and possum slept around it. He wise wide open, an easy kill. It wasn't like he could run away. He couldn't run away. But he made it so far, he has survived this long! It was a blessing. But, orders were orders. And orders were meant to be taken back.
He made his presence known, the strong scent of lavender filling the air.
It was very brief. Theo gave the Dog a clear warning. Leave him and the Prototype alone. Or suffer the consequences. He, surprisingly, complied. He had earned his freedom, he had earned to live. Why kill someone who escaped, just like him? He was only given one request. Don't hurt them.
He couldn't promise that.
But he hoped that all would be forgiven in the end. As long as they never cross paths again.
He said it himself. What just god would kill someone with as much will as the Dog?
Not his.

Is it too late to do this for 2023? I don’t remember who started this, but I got the template from @piraterefrigerator. Here are my Top 5 Blorbos of 2023!
1.) Baron Friedrich von Glower (the Gabriel Knight series) - Do I even need to explain? My hyperfixation on this series is so real. He’s a queer werewolf who just really wants a boyfriend, he’s been lonely for like 200 years. Was done dirty by the writer, and deserves better.
2.) Percy Jackson (the Percy Jackson series) - surprisingly knocking down Emma a spot, Percy comes back as a comfort character because of the new tv series. He’s dumb. He loves his mom. He wants the gods to pay child support. He’s THE Percy and my middle school self is having the time of her life.
3.) Emma Swan (Once Upon A Time) - She’s a comfort character so I still think about her. Especially now that I’m noticing the parallels between her and Percy in the show. I’ll try to rewatch OUAT while I wait for the next PJ episode. I still adore her character development and her relationship with Killian Jones/Captain Hook
4.) Cheshire Cat (Alice’s Warped Wonderland version) I recently just finished another let’s play of this game, so I’m thinking about him again.
5.) Mae Borowski (Night in The Woods) - Haven’t played the game in the while, but I still think about her, especially during November.
Let’s see who makes the list next year and if I gain any new blorbos in 2024!

i think i made a mistake while realistifying him. he turned out a little adorable
#maybe he'd look different from a side angle or with his signature grin. i'll have to investigate that tomorrow#maybe i should've mixed in some tanuki or weasel instead of relying on pure cat refs#i theorize that his pitchfork tail is actually an underdeveloped cobra head since i think hes the tutorial chimera.#so i made his tail kinda mutate-y and scaly!#shitpost#sketch#my art#twisted wonderland#twst#grim

hear me out... stalker!sukuna watching and following you for months, calling and messaging you even though you changed your number twice. turning your life into a living nightmare before he finally breaks into your house. you hold a knife, you want to scream but he presses you too the wall, one hand on your wrist and one on covers you're face. he's—
edit: allow me to invite y'all to the comment section
#ris is thinking thoughts#he'd grin like a fucking psycho when pressing his body into yours#lick your tears away and coo with the sweetest voice known to man#he'd purr like a cat while holding a knife to your throat kissing you tenderly as if he's not a psychopath#sukuna#sukuna x you#sukuna x reader

Reunion
Chapter 1: An Old Friend
(A Spielzeit Fae Story, inspired by abugcalledtoken's Defects AU)
In the months that passed since the Hour of Joy, the two factions of the Mini Critters thrived. Those that stayed with the Prototype, the Followers, dwelled within the trees, hunting whatever they saw fit. The others, though, eventually found the town of Spielzeit. The Townies stayed near the town, going in frequently for food, often at picnics.
There were a group of 4 Townies. Allison, an Eins fae, Mandy, a Hase fae, Louise, a Ferkel fae, and Max, a Welpe fae, all of them close friends even before their transformation, were wandering just outside of town, making their way towards the Fruit Basket district. It seemed, though, that they were too late, the strawberries that they were hoping to have all to themselves were all gone! Yet, the slightest scent of them was still in the air.
They had been freshly picked. Max, having a little bit of fox in him, led the group, the scent growing stronger and stronger, until they reached a big, red cottage on a hill. They could hear the front door opening, they had to hide. A little old lady walked out, a basket of strawberries in her hand.
"Oh no! She has them!" Louise cried.
"What are we gonna do?" Asked Mandy
Allison, the leader of the group, got to thinking. Though, she was quickly interrupted by Max, who chimed,
"Guys! I smell more food in here! Let's go inside while she's away!"
With hunger overcoming them, and without thinking about whether there would be other people in that cottage, they made their way in through the window.
In the kitchen, they found a smorgasboard of various foods, most notably a cheese and cracker plate on the kitchen table. She had plenty of food, it wouldn't hurt to take a few things.
They grabbed all they could, ready to enjoy a great lunch. But they then noticed that they weren't alone. In the living room, was a big, skinny, purple cat, with a big grin on its face.
"Catnap?"
"Catnap, is that you?"
"Mr. Theo?"
"Thank goodness you're alive!"
The cat turned around, its eyes widening in surprise.
"Kids?...."
"Yeah! It's us!"
"We didn't know you'd be here!"
"It's so good to see you, Mr. Theo!"
The group were all laughing amongst each other, they hadn't seen each other since the Hour Of Joy. They talked with each other, reconnecting, reminiscing about times gone by.
"Wait, why didn't you kill that lady?", Allison asked, not out of malice but out of genuine confusion.
"She helped me."
"Helped you with what?"
A long silence filled the room. Theo took a deep breath, before exclaiming,
"I am no longer bound to the Prototype. He is dead to me. He didn't take that lightly."
He gestured towards his scar, leaving the four plushes in shock. All 4 of them walked toward Theo. All 4 of them were right in front of him. All 4 of them gave him a hug. He couldn't help but purr.
"Hey, since you aren't with that thing anymore, why don't we celebrate?"
"Celebrate? How?"
"Only way we know how, Mr. Theo!"
"LET'S EAT!"

GUYS
GUYS (+everyone else too ig)
So we all know brain dead/dead tired right? Tim x Danny?
Consider the following:
Tim as Gun Batman x Dan
Think about it!
Tim and Danny are extremely good friends (read, oblivious and head over heels). They start telling the other about their trauma. They start joke arguing about whose evil future self would win in a fight.
Danny realizes, hey, we can actually figure this out, and gives clockwork some puppy dog eyes to let them drop Dan and whoop ‘em GunTim style (Drake, for simplicity’s sake) somewhere they can’t hurt anyone. Mars, maybe.
It. Ah- Backfires. Spectacularly.
#ryan’s shouts into the void#up to you if I mean they start making out in the middle of the battlefield or they take over the world together#I like to think they bring each other bodies like a cat waking you up with a dead bird#i dub this ship#bloody grins#because i like the mental imagery that conjures#or possibly#dead bird#/#dead dove#dead tired#brain dead#danny fenton#danny phantom#tim drake#red robin#dp x dc prompt#dp x dc#dpxdc#Tim: This guy says he’s smarter than you!#Danny: Dan! I found someone wo can beat you into a pulp!#Dan & Drake: I’m gonna kill him!#Dan & Drake. locking eyes over the supposed-to-be battlefield: Oh no. He’s hot.#Dan & Drake. out of breath and exhausted and pissed that it was a *fucking draw*: well shit. guess i have to fuck him now.
