Here’s my fic for @retrocatastrophy for the gift exchange hosted by @ghostbcfandomevents 💖

[imperatorium]

Hello, this is your secret santa for the Ghost gift exchange! I was wondering if you have a preference for Sister/Nihil when they're older or younger? I'm excited to get started on your gift!

Hello, friend! No strong preference, but now that you've asked, I am sort of leaning towards them as older, if the spirit moves you in that direction. :) I do seem to have a pretty good collection of Seven Inches era art of them (and love all of it), so it might be fun to see a slightly more present-day take.

Thank you for asking!! I'm so excited to see what you come up with!!! ♥

My piece for the Ghost BC Gift Exchange Event for 2022 :-3 @ghostbcfandomevents

This year I was paired w/ @psina-alina who requested piece of any rating from a series of ships & favorite ghouls!! & since Swiss/Mountain was their favorite, I thought it nice to do a lil something of them making [Non denominational but still So good] holiday cookies; it is up for debate if Swiss is actually helping or just chatting & taking up counter space & holding the whisk to feel like hes doing something . Hrm.. All the same tho I had a ton of fun working on this & I hope you enjoy!!

Secret Garden

This is my entry for @ghostbcfandomevents 2022 Ghost Gift Exchange! I was matched with @bunnielav and their request was old Sister Imperator / Papa Nihil being sweet together and doing old people in love shit! I saw this as a great opportunity to draw attention to old age and all the great things that can still happen at that age, because old bodies are so often overlooked and ignored in fandoms and they deserve better. This was a great opportunity to write something that’s very much outside of my usual wheelhouse. I thank everyone involved in this secret santa / gift exchange! ❤️

Pairing: Sister Imperator/Papa Nihil

Rating: Teen and up audiences I suppose because of the D/s undertones and hints at intimate activities

Tags / contains: old people in love; straight presenting queer ship; fluff to the extent that Sister can be fluffy hahaha; “it’s complicated” relationship; “unfortunately I love him” vibes from Sister; Nihil is down bad for Sister’s delusion of grandeur; old bodies appreciation; old bodies in a positive light; blind / semi-blind character; disability and support representation; domesticity; me taking this as an opportunity to study and develop Imperator’s character for future fics; power exchange dynamics; love languages; the language of flowers; a car trip; a beach date; old people’s libido doesn’t magically disappear with age.

Summary: A collection of snapshots of Sister Imperator and Papa Nihil’s relationship today. Sister’s daily life and responsibilities at the abbey and how Nihil never fails to brighten it up. An invitation on a date at the beach and the trip that follows. An evening at the beach house, to partake in sin for old time’s sake.

Merry christmas / happy holidays bunnielav, I hope you’ll find something you like in this gift of mine, enjoy and best wishes! :D

Day 1 - Introductions

Vesper O'Byrne

Vesper is a current resident of the Emeritus Abbey who is a ghoul specialist-- and although relatively new to the cult, has been climbing the ranks. During her childhood, she was partially raised in Ireland by her two mothers and partially abroad with cousins in the USA. Her mothers were huge fans of the underground work of the original Ghost project (Papa Nihil fronting & Seven Inches of Satanic Panic) and were fascinated by the urban myths surrounding the one-hit-wonder group before they disappeared. The whispers of a Ghost cult became betime stories and Boogeyman fuel for Vesper growing up... Little did she know that trespassing backstage after Papa III was publicly dethroned would send her spiralling into a the throes of a murder mystery within the crumbling walls of the cult's inner mechanisms...

On any given day, you can find Vesper draped in dramatic looks-- off the shoulder blouses, bold kohl on her eyes, painted lips-- but never without her platforms or combat boots (c'mon with a property this ancient and expansive, there's lots of walking to be done!). She is fond of rings and has several that match her jewelry for her piercings.

My inspiration for Vesper was ripped directly from a dream I had. She was pretty much already fully fleshed out and on the hunt for a murderer within the Abbey's clergy, so she just became another self-insert vessel full of lots of angst and love to be explored! I've been exploring all of thrills and chills of her story with @anti-climactic 🧡 I have a whole tag dedicated to posts that remind me of Vesper #vesper vibes

@ghostbcfandomevents (love you!)

My giftee for this year's winter gift exchange (@ghostbcfandomevents) was @satan-incarnate-666! I kinda took the general prompt and ran with it, but I had a lot of fun working on these two :-) Thank you for participating and I hope you're having a nice holiday!

Meet Sister Mary Sabine!

Day 1: Introductions

Youngest of her affluent family, Danielle Parker always felt like an outsider, even amongst her siblings. Her sister was gorgeous, her brother successful, her parents powerful.

With little self esteem and an all-encompassing desire to do good, she entered into a Catholic convent. When she passed her novitiate years, she was christened Mary Sabine, and spent several years in unfulfilling drudgery, hoping that one day, she’d get her chance at the life she desperately craved.

It isn’t until she meets the mysterious Cardinal Copia and his band of silver-masked ghouls that her life changes for the better.

(shout out to @ghostbcfandomevents​ for these daily prompts! 💕)

Ghost OC Week - Day 5: Where are they now?

How is this character doing with the current state of events for Ghost?

Oh, great. Windstille does his thing - plays the organ during masses, looks after his grandchildren, and regularly reminds the high Clergy that the organs need repair and maintenance, and the organists deserve the same privileges as the band ghouls. As a faithful servant of the Dark Lord, he is delighted that more and more people are turning to the Church. The Emeritus family drama and the murder of previous Papas have not affected him too much. After all, Windstille has seen enough murder and betrayal within the clergy over the years of his ministry.

Do they like Impera?

Surprisingly, yes. The theme of the rise and fall of empires resonated with him. Windstille particularly liked Dominion and even asked Papa for permission to arrange it for the organ and perform it during masses. But he finds Twenties very kitsch.

How do they feel about Papa Emeritus IV?

Well, that's a curious question. Windstille has always treated the Papa with reverence - as head of the Church, as a symbol. One might say that he respects the title, but his personal attitude toward the person bearing the title is another matter entirely. Just like in case of Sister Imperator, Windstille remembers Papa Emeritus IV as a very young child - a funny little boy who played with rats and followed his friend Ignis, and it requires some effort from the old ghoul to take this boy seriously. The fact that Papa treats his ghouls with respect gives him bonus points in the eyes of Windstille who remembers perfectly how humans used to treat his tribe.

[imperatorium]

wait can i hear your thoughts on how cirice connects to imperator and nihil? sorry if you’ve already shared this before but i’m really curious now😭

To be honest, I don't know that I have in an explicit way on tumblr, before! I covered it a bit in my @ghostbcfandomevents piece from 2021, "An Antichrist(mas) Carol", but I haven't really ever discussed it in much depth, despite it being like...a founding thesis in how I see Sister & Nihil.

For the most part, I don't assume that the video is meant to be taken as part of direct band canon in any official sense but when I was first getting into Ghost, while going through as much of their work as I had access to, I said to my partner (who introduced me to them), "Is this supposed to be Sister & Nihil??" after I watched the "Cirice" video for the first time.

And when I say that, I understand that there's been a lot of fandom debate over which of the boys the singer is vs. who the couple at the end of the video are supposed to be, etc. All valid discussions that I hope people will continue to have until we're told to do otherwise.

As far as I'm concerned, the children in the video are Sister & Nihil. The girl coming into the talent show with her mom is Sister, the boy performing with what (to me seems like) obviously a Ghost equivalent/prototype is Nihil.

My solidified take is that this performance was a Clergy experiment in spreading the message with the sole (and fortunately for everyone, musically inclined) heir of the reigning Antipope from the early-ish 20th century. He was an installation at the school hosting the show, not a student, and Sister Imperator was a new, young student trying to assimilate into her new school after being forced to switch from her old one due to Witch Powers(TM) negatively affecting her experience there.

Nihil was the first person to See her and recognize her positively for who she is and what she can do, so, ass such, she was immediately prepared to decimate an entire auditorium for him. In the aftermath of what I presume to be chaos and carnage, they had a moment during which they were able to introduce themselves to each other and he expressed his strong intent to bring her back with him into the Church because authentic witches have been just kind of a myth for so long. Of course, she is READY FOR IT, but then the bubble bursts and the chaos catches up with them.

At this point, they get separated and she's nabbed by the Clergy representatives (the enthusiastic couple) who make the bold decision to take her and leave Nihil behind because a Papa can always be bred for more heirs but a witch is unique. So, Nihil gets left behind in the crowd and ends up folded into the foster care system, at which point he is adopted by a normie family and raised outside of the Church to the point that he eventually is (basically) brainwashed into forgetting about it considering that his adoptive family sees it as just some weird Satanic Panic trauma.

While all of that is being stripped out of him, Sister is going through some deeply traumatic experiences, too, while being trained to do what is expected of a witch within the congregation and being routinely berated for her all-consuming obsession with trying to find and reinstate the boy to whom she owes all her life and power.

I feel like the events of the "Dance Macabre" video speak enough to how well that worked out for her opposition. :}

Ghost OC Week Part 7

April 9th - Exploration - Feel free to choose anything about this character you wish to elaborate on. If you wanted to dive deeper into their relationships or if you wanted to explain their past more, or if there’s anything at all that you want to talk about now is the time!

TW for character death and emotional abuse.

I left this day to talk about my past and how I regained my memories. 

I went for a pretty long time without knowing anything at all, and to be honest, it had kind of stopped bothering me now that I had Swiss. But, one insane day, someone new showed up in the cafeteria when I was having lunch. One of the bus boys came up to me and started talking to me like he had known me forever. I thought maybe he was mistaken, and then he mentioned a birthmark I had on my hip. It's nothing special, just a bit of discoloration in a weird shape…but no one really knows about it unless they have spent a lot of time with me naked. I'm not even sure Dew noticed it and we fucked a lot..but this man knew something that no one else should have known. And to be honest, as excited as I was, I was also incredibly scared. He said his name was Soot (created by @popias-gloves ) and he told me we had been quite an item back when I lived in hell, before I was summoned. He told me so many things..how I didn't look like I used to (basically confirming that my hair was definitely never white before), how the mother I never knew I had was desperately looking for me, and most of all how much it hurt him when I disappeared. He also told me my real name…Shade. 

The shock of it all left me a little reeling, but considering how much I had always wanted more information about myself, I agreed to meet up with Soot later in his room. Swiss almost didn't let me, or at least didn't want me to go alone. I didn't understand why at first, but considering Swiss seemed to always have a sixth sense about these things, I should have listened. 

When I met up with Soot that night, he told me more about my life. How we met at a show with a band I had formed and had some mild success in, how the two of us fucked within probably a couple hours of meeting underneath the stage, and how our relationship, while rocky at times, was full of passion that Soot said he had never felt with anyone else before. 

It was that same passion that made Soot want to see if I remembered anything from our past. That's why he asked me to kiss him. To be honest, I almost wanted to see if maybe kissing him would help me remember anything, even if it meant kissing someone who was not my own mate. But, when I let him do it, I didn't feel like I expected. Really, I just hoped I felt nothing…I loved Swiss and he was all I wanted. But when I kissed Soot, I actually felt…fear. Once that happened, I hurried up and left as politely as I could and immediately told Swiss what happened. I was lucky Swiss wasn't angry with me, but I think the fact that I told him how it scared me helped. I never understood why I felt that way until months later…when everyone in our church was forced to go back to Hell.

Going back to Hell was just the product of a lot of missteps our little church took over the years, but we found out later that another rival Church in Genoa had a hand in it too when they got a little power hungry and tried to take over. Long story short, we got everything back, but shit was crazy for awhile.

Before any of that happened though, a lot of things changed in my life. I found out Swiss actually had powers but they were so dangerous that they were suppressed and his memory blocked every time it was mentioned for his own and everyone else's safety. However, just finding out this information sent me on a little trip to a corner of Hell I had never even been to and introduced me to the most hideous Dealer ghoul I had ever seen. I eventually got out of that alive, but I was injured enough to keep me incapacitated for a few days. While I was injured, Soot had apparently gone through his own soul searching and told me that he lied to me about our relationship and how we weren't as happy as he had made it seem. Sure, we had a lot of passion…but he was incredibly jealous of the attention I was getting in my band, mostly because people would practically throw themselves at me since they wanted to sleep with me. However, I didn't help to keep them away by covering the mating mark that Soot had left on my neck. Soot and I had apparently fought all the time over things like money, food, my job etc..but when he found out me covering his mark, we fought so much that he left me. 

The problem was that once he left, I found out that I had a bit of a stalker who ended up finding where I lived. I had seen her before at shows and knew her name, but I kept turning her down every time, I just never told her why. But, that night, after my fight with Soot, I did what I always did and took comfort in the first body I could find and invited the girl in my house. 

Unfortunately, Soot thought that maybe he could come back and make up with me and ended up finding us fucking in the bed that him and I shared. At the time of my injury, that was where Soot's story stopped. He lied to me again and just said he left again and didn't tell me the rest of the story (but I'll get what really happened in a moment.)

Not long after this, a pandemic hit the entire Church. We found out later that the water supply was contaminated making everyone violently ill, but since I never drink tap water (I'm a soda addict) I was never affected. Since I was still being punished for my unauthorized trip to Hell to get more info about Swiss, I was recruited to help heal the sick ones. But, since I am only one ghoul and my power is pretty rare, I asked that my mother Andromeda be summoned to help. 

Soot told me about her, she had black hair like mine used to be, and had the same color eyes. We we're also both quintessence ghouls, hence why our powers manifested as healing as opposed to how the other elements manifest. Coincidentally, my father, who was a fire ghoul, had also disappeared one day, kind of like I did, so Soot said I never knew him and was raised by my mother. 

When my mother arrived, we didn't have much time to get to know each other right away because we had work to do. But once it was all over, I started to get the feeling why Soot and her didn't get along, and also why he said that she and I had a strained relationship while I still lived in Hell. Not that she didn't care about me, that I could tell for sure, but it was almost like she wanted what was best for her and not for me. I didn't understand it fully until later, but felt an inkling of it when she made Swiss feel guilty for not living in the same dorm as me. The two of us didn't really care and spent most nights together anyway, but moving all our stuff together was impossible where we were and Swiss didn't want to leave the band wing because it would take him away from his family, the band. I understood, and didn't really care too much, but my mother made it seem like it was wrong for us to not cohabitate all the time when we were already mated. Little did I know, we had more problems than she wasn't telling me.

To get to the final part of this story, our little trip to Hell was a game changer for me. Apparently, my first trip to Hell didn't cause anything to happen because we weren't in the area where ghouls lived. But, when we were forced to go there this time, my memories came flooding back and I basically passed out from the pain. 

When I woke up, I remembered everything. My life with my mother where she never let me pursue my dreams as a guitarist and kept trying to get me to be a healer like her. It was actually her fault that I lived in a tiny house, struggling to make ends meet because I wouldn't let her make me do something I didn't want to do. 

But, the worst of all…Soot and I were responsible for the death of my stalker, causing us to bury her in my own backyard. 

The story that Soot didn't want to tell me was that he didn't just leave after he found me cheating on him. The real story is that when he found me, the three of us argued and apparently, my fuck buddy for the night got on Soot's bad side enough that he attacked her. She didn't stand a chance against a fire ghoul who had been raised to be a fighter and she was practically ripped to shreds before I could even stop Soot. 

After we buried her in my yard, I let Soot stay with me for awhile, but he scared me every day. I felt forced into sleeping with him for fear that he might end up hurting me if I didn't pretend that I still loved him. Looking back at it, maybe it was for the best that I was summoned because that allowed me to get away from Soot, and technically also allowed me to meet Swiss too, until the moment I got my memories back, I had no idea.

These days though, Soot has reformed quite a lot, he even met someone too and they seem to be happy. 

My mom and I have talked a lot and she's gotten better too. Right now, we are trying to get more information about my father because apparently he didn't just disappear or run off with someone like my mom had been telling me. However, we haven't found much out yet.

Well...I think that's basically the end of my story, for now at least. Hopefully I get the chance to tell you more later on, but thank you for reading if you did..it's been fun!

Ghost OC Week - Day 4: Somewhere in between

What steps did this character take to get to where they are now?

Like all ghouls, Breeze went a long way to socialization on the Surface. It's different in Hell: different rules, different relationships within the clans belonging to their elements, different traditions and routines. Here, on the Surface, everything is different, and you have to know how to communicate with people. One way or another, Breeze had to learn how to behave with the representatives of other elements. And she also had to work very, very hard, not only to do her job well, but to excel at the things she liked. For example, to play Ghost covers on the organ for Grandpa.

Feel free to choose a specific time/era to focus on and describe what your oc was doing.

Era III. I already told you that the first person Breeze saw was Terzo. Perhaps she was hurt by the fact that he questioned her several times about whether she could do her job. She couldn't understand why Papa doubted that she could handle anything? And, of course, she was pleased to see him watching her progress. And she also really wanted to please her grandfather, who believed in her abilities.
