Psalm 69 | Save Me, O God
A Cry for Deliverance in Deep Distress “Save me, God,For the waters have threatened my life.I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no foothold;I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;My eyes fail while I wait for my God.” Surrounded by Enemies Without Cause “Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;Those…

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.

#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks#hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature#ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual#isat spoilers#isat#isat fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#lucabyteart#RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete#they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

The Average Alfred Pennyworth Portrayal: *is Bruce Wayne's capable and somewhat cryptic butler*
Gotham!Alfred Pennyworth: *threatens an 11 years old boy to eat his dinner proper because if he doesn't he'll be too light in weight by the morning and the Balloonman will come for him and will tie him to a balloon and send him to the skies to die because he's rich and corrupt and forever guilty*

I hate how 80% of writers on A03 write present day DM. Daniel Molloy is a crotchety old man. He’s an asshole. He is NOT Armand’s trauma informed therapist. Mr. fucked a girl with a bag over her head is not a super sensitive empathetic soul. Have you seen his reaction when Louis cries? The twice divorced man estranged from his two daughters is not calling Armand babygirl ( even though I wish he would😭) unless he’s being patronizing. If you thought Louis’ “my daddy vampire groomed me into a little bitch” line was bad just wait until Daniel and Armand get into an argument! So many fake old man toxic yaoi enjoyers smh😔. They should be playing psychosexual murder games with each other!

Psalm 22 | From Despair to Praise: A Prophetic Psalm of Suffering and Glory
A Cry of Forsakenness “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?Far from my help are the words of my groaning.My God, I cry out by day, but You do not answer;And by night, but I have no rest.” Trust in God’s Past Faithfulness “Yet You are holy,You who are enthroned upon the praises of Israel.In You our fathers trusted;They trusted and You rescued them.To You they cried out and they fled to…

1 Timothy 4:10 (NKJV) - For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.
