listen. listen to me. wouldnt it be so delicious if in s3 they finally got to talk to god. and like idk what she has to say but wouldnt that be so cool. bc in this sho literally nothing is said without a purpose. and both aziraphale and crowley keep bringing up wanting to talk directly to god or being unable to do so. which leads to believe it will actually happen in s3. theyll get to pop the question. now will god reply? well dont ask me

@libelelle

i cant stop saying "grisp it"

[heyitslapis]

what is grisp

It's a silly little typo for "grip" or "grasp" (honestly may even be a combination of the two) I just got echolaila about it & couldn't stop giggling. Here my next post will be the context

Won’t you please come back to me?

[tawnysoup]

Join me on this scientific journey of discovery, will you?

The hypothesis: Looplets and Fritters resemble each other once all the body fur is taken out of the equation. Let's shave a Fritter to test this theory

Very interesting! Their anatomy does differ a tiny bit under there but not much. More importantly we have discovered the Fritter does indeed have a tail after all.

Please could you examine these x-ray graphs for me?

Yes, very good. We've learned a lot today. However...

The experiment may have resulted in this new "human" Loop design... critter edition? Next time, I'll try not to let my samples mix.

Today's Seal Is: Grisped Firmly

bite that which feeds (on) you

"fun" optional design notes (CWs for self harm/mutilation, body horror):

this is meant to be a drawing of VAL having bitten off or otherwise removed her own tongue, but you may also interpret it as a depiction of the canonical suffering she increasingly experienced and tried unsuccessfully to deny while using her power. either way, it's meant to be an act of self harm. this started out as a vent doodle and then i got attached, so i hope you won't hold it against me too much.

i intentionally styled this to look like a “botched” artwork of saintly transfiguration (rather than gazing upwards towards the divine, VAL makes direct eye contact with the viewer, and though she's smiling with a hint of triumph, it's clear she's in terrible pain, and there is no ecstasy or transcendence in her agony, her halo is breaking and rusted) - an anti-hallowing, if you will. however, the connection to her hallowing cannot entirely be subverted and ignored - the barbed wire, though tarnished, still surrounds her in vicious broken tangles that snag on her clothes and hair; she's still soaked in blood, if only her own. she cannot truly escape it - not through further violence, at least.

i dressed VAL in clothes that are an inversion of my "default" outfit for her, ie: her battle-saint uniform. instead of a collared shirt (for some semblance of formality despite her position as a covert agent) layered over a black turtleneck to conceal her prayer marks from immediate scrutiny and suspicion and weather stains more effectively, she's wearing a light coloured shirt that only emphasises the patches of scarred skin it doesn't cover and is very obviously stained with blood. her jacket is unremarkable and chosen for comfort rather than military issue, but she's clearly not experiencing much comfort from it right now. her skirt is a soft, peaceful pale blue-grey instead of an eyecatching, provocative red-brown, evoking religious iconography of saints and other holy figures, particularly the virgin mary (whose story of immaculate conception forms an apt horrifying parallel to the process of sainthood as depicted in tsv; bodily violation by a divine figure and forced 'god birthing', to utilise the show's own terminology - emphasis is placed in biblical canon on mary's willing consent, but tsv illustrates the horrifying side effects of such a choice, however freely made, with characters like VAL and paige) - but like the shirt this only serves to highlight the blood staining it.

for her expression, i tried to evoke this scene from s1 ch4 (again, drawing a connection to the hallowing that put her in the position to consider an act like this in the first place). i was particularly struck by the idea of ‘not needing to worry anymore’, and the potential for double meaning there (being afraid for someone, and being afraid of them) - of VAL conceiving of a way to make it so that no one would “worry” about her by sacrificing that which enables her to wield words as a weapon.

i personally don't think that VAL would be very likely to bite or cut out her own tongue, because of the vulnerability and dependence on the kindness of others that would necessarily require her to accept. i imagine it rather as a simultaneous guilty fantasy and intrusive fear-obsession she might have, neutering herself into something safe and sympathetic in a single decisive act of sacrifice that spites both the god that ate her and the girl she was who volunteered her life to it in the process, whilst knowing from experience that it wouldn't truly satisfy anyone, nor bring her peace or improve her quality of life.
