Chapter Twelve - Public Release

Here we are! Chapter Twelve is up for the public. If you want to avoid spoilers, please block the tag #end game spoilers

I will probably not be answering any of the really spoilery ones until next week some time.

Thank you to everyone that has helped me get here. I honestly have so many emotions over posting for the last time in book 1. I really hope you all enjoy it.

thinking about the thick of it 4x04 from that nurse’s perspective. you’re not following the news because you’re on the ward, and you probably don’t give a shit about nicola murray anyway because you’re a normal person. all you know is that there’s a skinny young man recovering from an appendectomy in room 3. an older bloke you recognise comes in to see him with a bouquet, is a dream to you, takes said flowers in to him + back again, and then, bafflingly, gives them to you. a couple? a breakup? worse? later in the day, there’s a card and a balloon bound for his room, and although there isn’t a name on the card, you can tell who it’s from. you take them in, and the boy’s clearly surprised at the gesture, but a news bulletin comes on and something flashes in his eyes that’s far too hollow, far too sick. it makes you leave the room. two days later, he sneaks out before the consultant can see him, and you’re too overworked to speculate. the next time you see him properly is when labour wins the election, sidling out of shot

The Satanic Temple’s owner Cevin Soling really hates public schools

Newly discovered passages from 2014’s “The Student Resistance Handbook” by Satanic Temple co-owner Cevin “Malcolm Jarry” Soling show that using “After School Satan” clubs to disrupt education isn’t a bug or a side effect of them; it’s the whole point.

Religious Accommodations

A religious belief must be sincerely held and “must occupy the same place in life of the [believer] as [would] orthodox belief in God.” In other words, so long as you sincerely believe something and that belief represents a significant part of your outlook, it can be deemed a religious belief under the law. This means you can create your own religion, or announce that you are part of a religious organization that supports individual autonomy and sovereignty such as Satanism. The benefits depend on what state you live in. Schools are designed not to treat people as individuals. The more students engage in asserting their individual religious beliefs and demand appropriate concessions, the harder it is for schools to operate.

Holidays

Some states that have enacted various forms of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) permit certain rights under the banner of religious freedom. For instance, in Texas students are excused from school to observe religious holy days. If you are a Satanist and live in Texas, you can insist on taking Halloween off. Obviously, you want to exploit this judiciously, but just doing this once will upset and disturb the administration because it invites others to do the same.

Hair Length and Dress Code

Religious exemptions can be requested to avoid having to adhere to school requirements for hair length and school uniforms. Be aware that this could involve being transferred to a campus that does not have these requirements.

Page 65 of “The Student Resistance Handbook” by Cevin Soling (2014)

Religious Symbols

Religious symbols are permitted and wearing a Satanic pentagram and other forms of Satanic jewelry is legally protected even though many school districts inappropriately ban such apparel.

Curriculum

In some states, you may be permitted to not attend classes or participate in activities that conflict with your religious beliefs by providing a written statement to your teacher that states a conflict exists. Remember, religious beliefs do not have to be rational or even self-consistent—just deeply held convictions. Please note that you cannot be exempt from an entire semester and you cannot be exempt from graduation requirements including those for advancing from one grade to another.

Form a Club

In most schools, students have great leeway in forming clubs of their choosing. Form a club that will likely offend the faculty. Some suggestions:

• Club for the Practice of Witchcraft and Dark Arts

• Club for the Worshipers of Satan

• Banned Book Club

• Advanced Studies in Contemporary Pornography Club

• End Compulsory Schooling Club

• Students for a Lower Drinking Age Club

• Students for the Legalization of Heroin Club

• Students for a Sensible School Budget by Lowering Faculty Wages Club

• Death Metal and Gangsta Rap Appreciation Club

Moreover, we’re still being sued by The Satanic Temple in federal court and now King County Superior Court.

TST is also still suing Newsweek and its reporter (but maybe not her anymore!) for writing about us. In addition, the Temple is now suing a TikToker in Texas for talking about our case. Check the pinned post for more.

Hello! For the character building questions…

13, 21 and 45, all for your Hawke? :)

(or anyone you'd like to answer for)

13. When do they fake a smile? How often?

Really often, actually. Secret's whole thing is built around the idea of "fake it 'til you make it" and she's also a trickster by nature, so that means a lot of smiles that aren't entirely genuine. I guess I can split those fake smiles into two main categories: one is what Malcolm taught her, finding something to smile about when everyone expects you to be distressed (I guess this is more forced than fake, but I'll say it counts for the question), and the other is her being over-the-top on purpose, turning her charm up to eleven to distract people from something else that's going on. This could be anything from chatting up some guards as a distraction to going out of her way to become the most popular recruit at Ostagar despite being an apostate who, theoretically, shouldn't draw attention to herself at all.

21. What common etiquette do they disagree with? Do they still follow it?

She got plenty of criticism for being "too cheerful" in the wake of Malcom, Bethany and Leandra's deaths, respectively, exactly for the reasons detailed in the previous answer. This was especially ironic in Malcolm's case, because this version of Malcolm was the kind of guy to have "come up up at least one good joke about my death after I'm gone" as a last request. She knows that most people don't approach heartbreak the way she does, but she keeps doing it, and honestly, maybe that's why she comes out of the events of DA2 a little less haunted than some of my past Hawkes. (at least in theory. here's to hoping that things don't suddenly become Super Tragic once I actually play her)

45. What’s something unimportant / frivolous that they hate passionately?

I actually don't think she's the type to hate something passionately, especially small things. Secret tends to turn even the biggest bad things that happen to her into jokes and stories and just another part of the lore she's building around herself, so if she did have a pet peeve, it would probably just be some kind of inside joke.

Thanks for the ask!

ask me about my OCs

Deadline exclusive aka information that has been available publicly on Al Gore’s internet for months. Like the director himself has an indiegogo still published and soliciting money. That page names Malcolm, James, and Mary all as being in this movie. It names the movie and states the plot outline.

y'all ever get a post on your feed that sits on the precipice of the content youd usually consume only to veer so sharply off course as to impale you on a pike and leave you to gather your gooey remains and fucking book it
