If I can’t read the river scene of Decessit Vita Matris by the River Dart, then a river in the Alps is just as good!

Sadly, no hot selkies or sea monks were seen on my Alpine vacation, but you can certainly see them in Decessit Vita Matris!

This book is perfect if you’re looking for something queer to read during pride! (Or the rest of the year!)

You can buy the ebook on itch.io!

Or if you prefer the physical book, you can buy it on Amazon!

(You can also order it through your local indie bookstore!)

This is Claude’s declaration of lust to Julia (they’re both my OCs) ❤️

I enjoy making him express his feelings.

‘My lady, you seem so focused and poised’ thank you I have hayfever and if I move I’ll sneeze

if you merge three novices in the monk mobile game you get a standard monk, if you merge three standard monks you get a randomly generated obedientiary, so on and so forth until at level 50 you unlock god. we all know this

Medieval monks drawing little pictures for their illuminated manuscripts: ok now let’s do a silly one

monks are a sort of animal you have to take care of. the monastery is a little terrarium. the diet consists of bread, porridge, woodchips from crosses, and wine. being allowed to pet the tonsure is a symbol of trust

Three smiling bat doodles with script (proto gothic?)

I like Father Gernot, probably because I’d like to put him in his right place (at my feet obviously). 😇

Maybe I’ll color it later.

Guibert is a no-nonsense French monk who has had the auspicious honor of being plopped into a remote, struggling monastery as prior to enact the abbot of Cluny's ambitious 10th century reforms. will this be his 50k heartwarming ragtag found family adventure >_< ?

Forced Franciscan tonsurization Saturday or something

three times a year we have the monastery poetry slam but some of the brothers are taking vows of silence so they just get up there and look at us for a while and then we all clap
