Prayer of an unknown cleric

"Lord of Battles, Foehammer, protect me in the clash to come. Let my blade ring true, and my faith not falter. Let the tides of war turn in our favor, or let me fall with honor in Your righteous fire. Guide my soul to hold strong, and my arm to strike true, and allow Your sacred, impartial wisdom to sustain me so that I might guide us to Your blessed victory.

But.... in Your honor and glory, please... through Your divine will... please hear my fitful prayer.

Foehammer, at this troubled hour, hear that I beg of You, with the true and utmost devotion of a heart afire: I beg of You to heal and to keep, to protect that who is more dear than my own self- please, Tempus, my Lord of Fire and Steel, if he is to fall, then [multiple words scratched out] if he is to fall, then let my life be claimed in place of his, for he at holy hands has suff-- [large scribble] Just this once, please grant him Your divine presence. Keep his heart and hand strong, his mind sharp and magic mighty, and guide him to safety. Please, Foehammer, my Lord of War, let sword not touch sorcery on this day, and if it is blood that You desire, then I beg of You to take it from my devout heart sung in steel and psalm, from my sword forged in the crucible of combat, my faithful spirit and its complete devotion, and allow, in Your grace, for my beloved to live. And if life-- [large, furious scribble] if life is to be lost, if blood is to be spilled, let me exchange mine for his, have my life for it is already beholden to You, and let the trade be just, let it be fair, and let it be enough.

I request this of You as Your devout follower, as but Your most humble servant and sword- I beg of You to keep him, to save him; and if Your might is to hunger, to let Your appetite be whet on my skin, and Your teeth and blade be sated on my flesh, for I am Your creation.

Just... please, fuck, just... please let him live. Gods, please just let him survive this.

- an ink-stained prayer penned by a Baldurian war-priest on the eve of a great battle, 1492 DR. Divine magic shimmers in the parchment.

no ur so right about that i totally ask about your blast hannigan ideas

yaaaaaaayyyyy i Do think of blast hannigan

- mentioned on my xerxo post, it started as a smaller publisher's comic, then got a radio show and later the movie.  this is the first time that blast hannigan has been on film, and he didn't have a first name before the movie, he was just referred to as captain hannigan

- the captain hannigan comics predate captain cosmos, generally is assumed the other way around

- is second in command is a little green alien.  named cosmo

- his costume is a LOT more informed by 50s-60s science fiction than it is the actual for real life spacesuits.  i have a redesign im working on!

- the Zebulonians share a hive mind structure, and they communicate telepathically with only certain other aliens.  they are a common opponent to capt hannigan

- there was a whole arc where it was revealed hannigan's long-lost parents are from an old empire of Neptune (not the bug ones.) that was previously wiped out by the Zebulon fleet

- also the neptunians are bugs i think

- also mentioned on my original xerxo post, i think xerxo himself is a character that elliot had pitched for the radio show to be a recurring rival to capt hannigan but they never actually got around to writing him in

alright i've been watching a lot of movies lately here are my quickie reviews (these are all also comedies like i laughed a lot watching them)

Freaky (2020, R; slasher): freaky friday but it's a murderer, lul! hilarious and gorier than expected. vince vaughn and kathryn newtorn are rad. one scene ruined it for me, though, so i may not rewatch. also Brendon Urie's face /j. 4/5

Happy Death Day (2017, PG-13; horror/thriller): groundhog day but a pretty blonde girl keeps getting killed, lul! jessica rothe is incredible and we love turning a genre on its head. proof you can do the college au instead and it would be better, actually. 4.5/5

Happy Death Day 2U (2019, PG-13; thriller/sci-fi): I'm so excited for the third one, what the fuck with the genre switch??? unneeded but fun sequel, very campy. 4

Banana Split (2018, R; coming of age): should've been bi but it's enjoyable. cole sprouse is distracting. 3.5

maybe look into trigger warnings before watching any of these, or ask if you have any questions, but i recommend all of these movies
