The Villagers, "Set the Tigers Free"

I really wanted to specifically talk about a certain demon character who's a Guard at Nan's village, bc I like his name alot. It's ofc in finnish so. I'll have to do some explaining but I just find it so cool

Here's our guy. Velvety smooth black fur. Mane. Can walk quadruped if he wants. His scars also glow white faintly the same as his eyes and mouth. His name is Syne

Syne is short for Synkän Yön Kulkija, which roughly translates to "Traveler of the grim night" (or dark night). Kulkija is a word that can also be used for when someone is just wandering or roaming but I said "traveler" in the sense that it gives the vibe of someone moving about in the dark of the night. Which is exactly the vibe the name is going for. Someone who knows the dark and nighttime as their home, as their own. It even sounds a bit vague and mysterious, ykno,, "I saw someone wandering in the dead of night", but I wouldn't follow, you'll never know what scares the night will bring.

Anyway I find the name very cool and I really like how it shortens to Syne

so i left the mormon church as a teenager (15ish? 16?), but stayed in attendance until i was 20. i was pretty up front about the whole deciding-it-wasnt-true process with my bishop, who frankly took it really well, but it wasnt like i pulled all 150 ward members aside and had a heart to heart with them. anyway, i didnt believe, so at 19 i didnt go on a mission, and while some people in the ward were totally fine with that, others werent. and there was one woman in her late 50s who pulled me aside one day to interrogate me why i hadnt gone on a mission.

"the duty of every young man" she said.

and the thing is, im autistic. and a lot of people assume that when youre autistic, your social skills just arent very good. but thats not exactly true. your Be Polite skills are kind of eh, and they tend to stay that way, but as a sort of survival mechanism your Be Rude skills become amazing simply because you get put in tons of situations where your choices are to Function or Be Polite. and no one can choose Be Polite forever. the world demands function, it merely encourages politeness.

anyway, it can really catch neurotypicals by surprise, because hey, heres this kind of awkward, graceless guy, who stumbles over his words a lot and is very apologetic. hes probably a huge pushover. but i'm only like that when we're playing The Polite Game, because i am frankly kind of bad at it. but when its time to play The Rude Game, i go fucking ham and asking about the not-going-on-a-mission thing is Super Rude. so i said:

"sister hadlock... they wont let me go because i lit-er-ally cannot stop sucking dicks. i dont know why, its just so, so hard."

*dramatic pause*

"also - its very difficult to stop."

anyway, it almost killed her. i think she'd expected to just kind of steamroll me for the entire conversation, but the answer crushed her soul. instead of continuing her interrogation she made a noise like a horse drowning in a bog and left.

to add insult to injury, she went to the bishop after that, thinking he'd chew me out for being an ass, but instead he chewed her out for not minding her own business. then she went to my parents after that, who basically went "yeah, babylon was pretty rude. but youre also pretty rude. what are you, mad that he's better at it than you?"

i really loved that ward.

So for those who were curious about the briefly mentioned rooster dilf

This is Kukkulan kuningas ("King of the hill"), but just Kuku for short. He keeps a small chicken farm with his girl-son. He's an older gent but came around only recently due to the fact that he was born an ordinary, non sentient rooster. His daughter was the sole worker on their farm before this and wished for more family (and help) to have around, so he was transformed into a devil as well.

It's difficult to adapt to suddenly being. A person. So he got into various situations and hijinks around the village, which Syne as the guard had to come mediate fairly often. Kuku means well, but the village (or the rest of the world) doesn't work on chicken coup rules. It's widely agreed that it's not a good idea to Turn older critters (they call it "Giving them a mind") due to problems with adjustment, but fortunately, he does just fine with his daughter around their ranch, and he's really, really trying his damnest.

Syne for one has been taken aback by 1. Kuku's sheer physical strength compared to him (they've thrown hands more than once) and 2. His continuous tenacity in Trying Again. And.... 3. His rugged handsomeness and idiot charms
