Then I guess Molly would not admit red smoke from his body if the apogee solstice plays out the same way as in the campaign. I wonder if Lucien would be like a fog machine if a soul determines how much smoke you admit.

But I am kinda worried about him if Ludinus finds out about his heritage, even if Lucien has the stronger connection. Ludi hates the gods, makes you afraid of what he would do to someone who is a direct descendant of one. Molly would definitely be like”I don’t even worship the guy and from what I’ve been told he’s a major asshole.”

I have been wondering something since a few hours ago: Is Mollymauk technically Ruidusborn? Lucien is and Mollymauk still has the body and is a fragment of Lucien’s soul, but you could say that he was “born” under Catha. You’re the author, please give my wondering brain release.

In my head, and this may or may not jive with Lore, but since there’s ZERO PRECEDENT for this happening ever I can do what I want, Lucien is Ruidusborn and Molly was born under a full Catha, and it works the same way that the Khar bloodline curse only affected Lucien- because it relates more to the soul than the body and Molly doesn’t have enough of it to count.

You could argue that with the chained oblivion’s ability to affect fate, it could have pushed Ludinus towards its “child”, knowing that not freeing Predathos would be impossible for him not to do.

From what little I know about the CR universe, Tharizdun had escaped its imprisonment three times and was put back by the gods. So if Predathos eat the gods and then released it, then no one would be able stop it from eating what’s left.

Again, it’s just how I see it. I don’t know what you have planned for the final arc, so I don’t have the full picture.

Edit: I realized I did a double negative in the first paragraph. Tired brain.

With Ludi hating the gods(both in canon and your au), I wonder how he would feel about being manipulated by the chained oblivion, the worst of the betrayer gods.(at least in your fic.)

It doesn’t make complicated plans but has a talent for finding those who does.

The thing about it is that we still, TO THIS DAY, do not know if Ludinus was aware of what Vence was doing for the Angel of Irons cult and it haunts me, because evidence in canon points to Vence being a wildcard but I genuinely haaaate that because it means so little when it could have indicated how deep the Vanguard rabbit hole went and how long Ludinus has been moving pieces.

In LitMoR, Ludinus was aware of the Angel of Irons cult and thinks it's connected to Predathos (because it is in the sense that in litmor Predathos is a piece of Tharizdun) and was using it primarily as a way to sow discord in one of the biggest religious organization in Rexxentrum- if Pelor's temple is corrupted and the fane beneath it broken, then people will feel abandoned by their religious leaders and turn from the gods and be willing to join the Vanguard. In that sense, Ludinus was never actually manipulated- he knew full well what he was doing. He just doesn't have the full scope of the situation. He wanted Jayne alive to get further clarity and he wanted her held captive to prevent her from ever taking the cult further than just breaking a single fane.

So it's a very... complicated dance. Ludinus knew that breaking a fane on Tharizdun is Bad, but it was a sacrifice he was willing to make to terrify people into compliance with his party line. He could probably guess that Jayne MIGHT be lying about what the Angel of Irons actually is (hence, again, why he was keeping her locked up after her arrest) and that it might be Tharizdun-related, but in his mind if it's NOT connected to Predathos and it DOES get out, Predathos is going to eat it because NO ONE but the Chained Oblivion's servants are aware that Predathos is a piece of Tharizdun and it would be Very Bad For Everyone if they merged again.

I think even in this version of events where Ludinus is even more Xanatosian in his gambits, he would not consider an option where Tharizdun and Predathos are parts of the same entity.

tl;dr technically Ludinus was never manipulated he was just given incomplete information that he became aware of over the course of the story in the background and that was what the Soul and Essek used to get him ousted from his seat.

i wanted to spotlight a small handful of the palestinian people i & friends of mine have been in contact with recently and get some eyes on their fundraisers. i'd really appreciate if you donated to & shared their fundraisers to help these families survive & hopefully escape to better conditions.

A child in Gaza holds his cat among the rubble. No home. No safety. No food. Yet he still protects someone more vulnerable than himself. In a place where everything is under attack, mercy survives..Support those who kept their humanity.

I hate all these delays and poor excuses. These people were supposed to be at the Rafah border three days ago and Sisi the lapdog is still making up lies for why they can’t go there. The organizers have been trying to get permission from the Egyptian government for over a week now and they haven’t bothered anyone who is a citizen of the country. So the dictator coward can’t say that they are not compliant with their laws when everything points to the opposite.

Besides that, this entire situation is just wasting time and resources, not the march but the detaining and deportation of thousands of activists. Just think of the logistics of tracking down everyone who is in the march, then taking them to prison and looking through hundreds of phones for whatever they are looking for and then coordinating with the origin countries to send them back.

Again, they’re not bothering anyone so would be easier for everyone to let the activists to do the match and then they can go home on their own when they’re done. Sisi is just doing this because he’s doing the bidding of nations that nobody else likes right now because cults are running them. And are going broke because they don’t understand how the economy works and they can’t admit when they’re wrong.

[sugarmarbles21]

I wonder who put more pressure on sisi to “cancel” the march, PM nutbar who doesn’t want to go to jail or the orange chief of delusional who doesn’t want his birthday parade overshadowed.

Also if we wanted to humiliate any nation, country or not, it would be Israel. Humiliating Egypt, couldn’t care less.

It was lucky that nobody was killed during the seizure of the boat. The IOF loves their rockets.

You won’t be interested in my opinion, but can you guess my prediction for the freedom flotilla? I think that they will try again in a few months tops.

This isn’t the first time that activists have tried to breach the blockade by boat and it won’t be last time. You find that the members of this movement are quite stubborn.

Speaking of, don’t forget about the march from Egypt to Gaza on 15 June to scare the criminals out of the Palestinians homes. I won’t be able to attend because I can’t afford a ticket or a hotel room. So if you can then join the march to help liberate Gaza. Also listen to the veterans and don’t pack any weapons because you will just get thrown in jail and you can’t help the Palestinians from a prison cell.

wheelchair accessibility I never see talked about

table height

aisle width

center vs side poles for tables

spots to sit in rooms/adutioriums/etc. that aren't blocking aisles

sink height and sink cabinets

toilet height

cash register height

the height of just so much, I could go on

benches/trash cans/scooters/bikes & bike racks/restaurant patios/etc. taking up sidewalk space

light poles placed in the center of the sidewalk

tilted sidewalks

lack of cross walks (jaywalking is not an option for me!)

overgrown brush over sidewalks

Anthony Mackie: *Talks about raising his kids to be masculine which to him means respect, compassion, responsibility, protecting your family etc.*

Anthony Mackie: *Talks about how growing up in the 80s and 90s in the south you grow up misogynistic sexist and homophobic*

Anthony Mackie: My roommate was gay. I didn't know how to deal with that. My brother is gay. I didn't know how to deal with that. So being a MAN I used my art to better myself. I played Perry so that I could understand my brother better

Anthony Mackie:

A bunch of people online: He is clearly a homophobe alpha male type

___

Look. I get seeing a headline and taking it a certain way. I get the kneejerk reaction to not read what someone says in good faith. But Mackie has been pretty open about a lot of things in his life. So you can find out pretty quickly how he feels about things and that he is teaching his kids non toxic masculinity.

I’m kinda disappointed that I didn’t reblogged this sooner because I was right! My sometimes bad memory actually remembered something correctly.

I’m normally a suspicious person so I questioned the validity of the leader of the popular forces claim that they provide food and shelter to people when I haven’t heard anything about them doing so from either the media or even the people in Gaza who still have working phones and cell service. And he seems to be a “might makes right”kind of guy and you can never trust those people.

While I don’t approve of everything Hamas has done, I trust them more than the gangs to have the Palestinians best interests in mind. Opposite of this guy in video, they can actually back up their talk with their actions and aren’t monsters like a certain “most moral army in the world”. And much to the offense of Prime Minister nutbar here, Hamas sees these “clans” more like nuisances than threats. They are busy with fighting the Israeli occupation of Gaza so having to deal with the gangs stealing what little aid there is, probably very frustrating for them me thinks. We have seen the chaos people who have been starving for months can cause when there’s food scarcity, and on top of that some of their own people taking what supplies exists and working with the enemy who blocked the aid in first place.

So I don’t blame them for using drastic measures to deal with these criminals to keep the people in Gaza from attacking each other out of fear and lack of trust. I hope that proper organizations can operate in Gaza soon and that the blockade is lifted completely.

I don’t like it. Don’t want it, don’t trust it and I am glad that the people with the common sense agree.

I bet you that the IOF and the American mercenaries are throwing peanuts at the starving Palestinians through the bars and laughing when they pick them up from the ground because they’re starving and haven’t had proper food in months!

I wish someone put them in cages and throw peanuts at them and see how they like being treated like animals, even though you should never treat an animal like that because it’s cruel and disgusting.

I really hope that he gets what’s coming to him by a certain arch devil now that the slug lord can’t hurt his husband anymore. Lucien did get that boon that Cania can aid once and I hope that includes the lord of the ring and bugs generally don’t like the cold.

It’s just my personal revenge fantasy against a fictional character and it wouldn’t be that out field. Like imagine that you’re Les, you have been forcefully separated from your partner because of a deal they made to keep you safe and also finding out that they made that deal because your child was scared of someone hurting you and then having to comfort them because they blame themselves, a scared child, for being tricked by a gross, manipulative grownup.

If it was me, I would have gone full Mexican grandma on anyone who did that to my family. Again, I just want bubby getting curve stomped because he’s awful and I want awful people to suffer.

Let me say that you’re one sadistic mother trucker(and I mean that as a compliment). One chapter left and I know something is going to go wrong there and you know that I know that. You could never give the story an anticlimactic ending with good conscience. I know character writing enough that there’s no way the slug lord isn’t going to claim vengeance for losing the bet and humiliating him.

Hahaha… I meeeean we’re definitely not done with Baalzebul and there’s definitely reasons why it shook out like this that maybe won’t be anticlimactic when they’re made clear, but….
