Jesus’ Ascension and Session

After Jesus’ resurrection, he appeared to many on several occasions. His final appearance was to His apostles. Luke wrote, “And He led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them. While He was blessing them, He parted from them and was carried up into heaven” (Luke 24:50-51). And in Acts we’re told, “He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him…

Today was the last DND session for a three-year campaign and I am big sad :(

One of the players brought whiskey for a last toast, which was very kind of them. I had never had whiskey before. Turns out I do not like whiskey. Unsurprising.

It tastes like slightly nicer hand sanitizer.

#blue chatter #it was a flavored whiskey as well #everyone else who had it said it was rly smooth and sweet #so I don’t think I super wanna know what regular whiskey tastes like #it was supposed to be like vanilla caramel flavored or smth #I was told it was like cream soda and that was a LIE it was like disinfectant #with a vanilla aftertaste #the campaign went rly rly well though #I’m seriously going to miss it #the final boss battle was just pure catharsis we absolutely whaled on that dark abberant goddess #she got Destroyed #an entire section of the continent restructured bc of the removal of her corruption #I rly like that my character got to be disabled at the tail end of this campaign #they wielded experimental magic that wasn’t supposed to work and resurrected someone who the Keeper very intentionally kept dead #it worked because they partially fused with Arawai the goddess of life and became her aspect on earth #but becoming partially divine in a mortal body takes a toll #they had more and more limited mobility and the more they cast magic to compensate the more of a toll it takes #functionally that meant my movement speed was reduced #and I lost more abilities after each combat as the consequences of overextending myself caught up to me #I wish I’d gotten to play this longer to see how this ended mechanically but it was a lot of fun to get a character who is both #very magically competent and still disabled and that still affects their ability and they still get the dignity of risk #to choose whether to continue casting or not knowing the consequences of doing so #it is very much a fantastical disability which I flavored heavily off of chronic fatigue and a mobility disorder #in-game their skin became hard and brassy around their joints which make them difficult and painful to bend #they lose a lot of sensation and fine motor control #thankfully they have a lot of money from their adventuring so they can commission an accessible house and mobility aids #and their friends help take care of them

𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐄.

Share at least 5 songs that you associate with or remind you of your muse!

✧ Regression — Ayanga.

Too much of the past for one to memorize Too many words remained for one to read through the lines The ebb and flow of the crowd, floods the world and paradise Along the path of time

Every night brings a dream, but the day relentlessly keeps me awake All the rest will be torn up whenever a choice is made Every living soul in the fray, striving for their own safe place Life is too long to end at grave

[...] Just a drop of water suffices Still, I wish to embrace the world with my thoughts A eulogy Time to leave where I have stood so long Letting you go recover traces overlapped Ends, then begins

✦ Moon Shadow — Elsword.

I would suddenly remember, merciless pain never felt before Agonizing hours that seeped into that singular painful memory, so even if, you

Apologize countless times, repeatedly, You can never get that moment back again.

In this never-ending timeline that turns like clockwork, I will raise my shimmering blue blade against the torturous shackles I won't be able to escape away from.

[...] Even if I can wake up and find a chance to run far, far away What I would dream of, instead, is to wake up repeatedly to slash away my endless nightmare.

✧ Sorrows of Strays & Fading Memories — HOYO-Mix. ✦ Midnight Reflections — HOYO-Mix. ✧ Swear on the Sword — Maplestory.

On the day I was alone, my back turned and full of hope raise your head and face the path of the sun It's full and overflowing a prayer of peace for all of us Your long-cherished desire and desperate wish, buried in the high waves Even if it is buried and collapsed, don't turn back.

Your weakness and fear will be forgotten now, I will triumph in your name and my name We'll be together for countless days together, it will make an endless journey.

Tagged by: @apocryphis (thank you ♥︎) Tagging: Whoever wants to do this, feel free to take it from me!

#◟༺✦༻◞ shall fair divination be imparted ┊dash game.┊#I know I put two on the same but shhh #they're together and it's not negotiable #honestly it's one of my playlists for when I write ngl #the rest... yes /feelS/#with one last one about his feelings #about the Black Serpent Knights #and others too #because if there is one thing that was reaffirmed in Requiem of the Echoing Depths #it's that one of the reasons Dain is fighting is to protect the honor #of his soldiers #and the dignity and wish of his people #as for one last clarification for moon shadow specifically #it's the thought that he could do /anything/ but do what he's doing #including to run away #and yet he's facing his nightmares #but also to not see them repeating #namely the disaster in Khaenri'ah #but brought to people of the seven nations

Divine Majesty and Human Dignity

To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.

1 How excellent in all the earth, Lord, our Lord, is thy name! Who hast thy glory far advanc’d above the starry frame.

2 From infants’ and from sucklings’ mouth thou didest strength ordain, For thy foes’ cause, that so thou might'st th’ avenging foe restrain.

3 When I look up unto the heav'ns, which thine own fingers fram’d, Unto the moon, and to the stars, which were by thee ordain’d;

4 Then say I, What is man, that he remember’d is by thee? Or what the son of man, that thou so kind to him should'st be?

5 For thou a little lower hast him than the angels made; With glory and with dignity thou crowned hast his head.

6 Of thy hands’ works thou mad'st him lord, all under’s feet didst lay;

7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and beasts that in the field do stray;

8 Fowls of the air, fish of the sea, all that pass through the same.

9 How excellent in all the earth, Lord, our Lord, is thy name! — Psalm 8 | Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter) Psalms of David in Metre 1650 © British and Foreign Bible Society 2015. All rights reserved.

You Should run for political office. You actually give a shit and want to make a difference in people's lives.

like srsly there's so much mass suffering and I think a lot of ppl are just putting on a brave face to endure this genocidal economic violence coming from the ruling class. it's so so saddening

#and NO ONE with power can see us suffering #worst too bc they dont realize most of us dont want or need million$ mansions or holiday homes #we just need stability and basic --VERY BASIC [things u need to survive befitting human dignity] existence #they cant even give us THAT bc the social order will collapse they say #exactly how rule by divine right was justified for centuries #anyway #economic violence #war on the poor #poverty eradication #thanks for sharing!

A virgin conceived, bore a son, and yet remained a virgin. This is no common occurrence, but a sign; [there is] no reason here, but God’s power, for He is the cause, and not nature. It is a special event, not shared by others; it is divine, not human. Christ’s birth was not necessity, but an expression of omnipotence, a sacrament of piety for the redemption of men. He who made man without generation from pure clay made man again and was born from a pure body. The hand that assumed clay to make our flesh deigned to assume a body for our salvation. That the Creator is in His creature and God is in the flesh brings dignity to man without dishonour to Him who made him. Why then, man, are you so worthless in your own eyes and yet so precious to God? Why render yourself such dishonour when you are honoured by Him?

Why do you ask how you were created and do not seek to know why you were made? Was not this entire visible universe made for your dwelling? It was for you that the light dispelled the overshadowing gloom; for your sake was the night regulated and the day measured, and for you were the heavens embellished with the varying brilliance of the sun, the moon and the stars. The earth was adorned with flowers, groves and fruit; and the constant marvellous variety of lovely living things was created in the air, the fields, and the seas for you, lest sad solitude destroy the joy of God’s new creation. And the Creator still works to devise things that can add to your glory. He has made you in His image that you might, in your person, make the invisible Creator present on earth; He has made you His legate, so that the vast empire of the world might have the Lord’s representative. Then in his mercy God assumed what He made in you; He wanted now to be truly manifest in man, just as He had wished to be revealed in man as in an image. Now He would be in reality what He had submitted to be in symbol.

And so Christ is born that, by His birth, He might restore our nature. He became a child, was fed, and grew that He might inaugurate the one perfect age to remain for ever as He had created it. He supports man that man might no longer fall. And the creature He had formed of earth He now makes heavenly; and what He had endowed with a human soul He now vivifies to become a heavenly spirit. In this way He fully raised man to God, and left in him neither sin, nor death, nor travail, nor pain, nor anything earthly, with the grace of our Lord Christ Jesus, Who lives and reigns with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, now and for ever, for all the ages of eternity. Amen.

Saint Peter Chrysologus

Do you ever just think about media where you're expected to side with the human-aligned characters and not really question or overthink it... and suddenly burst out with some shit like "oh my God, Tron was a colonist sympathizer being pitted against a hamfisted metaphor for Communist states, wasn't he?"

#he literally fights for the users #which sounds like a trite bit of wordplay until you think it through and realize how accurately it describes things #the humans have a relationship of cold impersonal value extraction where anthro programs may be deleted on a whim #the programs have no dignity or safety - their designated role is to be used #the slightest whim of a user matters more than the anguished desperate scream of a program #as soon as you accept program anthropomorphization you've accepted a toy story-esque world of grim ethical implications #in which our godlike and divinely upheld sovereignty makes us monstrous #which doesn't even touch on the villain but i really want to rewatch the movie from this lens before commenting too deeply on the mcp

I called on St. Rita to give me some guidance from this deck I've never pulled for myself before. Prior to this, I kept pulling cards I've already received. This is a personal reading, so I am unsure if the collective will really get much out of my insight. Basically, I need to figure out what I want and grow better at explaining whatever that is. It can be hard to define what you want. It can be hard to own that too - especially after being subjected to ridicule. There is dignity in being assertive, though. Standing up for yourself is a wonderful thing.

"𝐀 𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐠."

pairing: peacekeeper!Coriolanus Snow x f!reader.

summary: your voice guided, with dignity, the life of Coriolanus.

warnings: explicit words, reader having Coriolanus wrapped around her finger, mention of Coriolanus' mother + take a look at the masterlist!

word count: 1.186!

notes: okay, i wrote this listening to "Pearls" by Sade, which i consider a work of art and i recommend listening to it while reading! — enjoy this!

The ears of Coriolanus were witnesses, which might be considered honorable, of a pleasant song unknown to him; but, the young boy's chest would certainly acclaim to hear it again on another occasion.

The song was catchy, and managed to accompany a calming feeling in Coriolanus; something that, since his punishment, had not been found in him. — He saw himself in a memory of his childhood, during the nights when his dear mother hummed to him until he closed his eyes and fell into a peaceful sleep.

Coriolanus missed his mother every night and every damn day.

However, it was not, in fact, the song that provided those feelings so gratifying and exceptional in Coriolanus' chest. — Warming Snow boy's cold and wounded heart. — but, yes, the voice of whoever was singing.

The delicate voice, pronouncing each word with care, was so angelic and put those who listened to her singing in trouble as it mesmerized them and held their attention with vigor; so, as Coriolanus was. — He found himself trapped in you, and he had no desire to free himself.

Coriolanus, for the first time, presented himself as a bird that did not wish or intend to leave its gilded cage. — Perhaps, it was an exaggerated, drastic statement, or it was, in fact, what he was experiencing.

Your voice was divine; you were divine. — And Coriolanus agrees that your mother would love to hear you sing.

The birds, which were present in the fresh and free environment of the forest, seemed to accompany your song. — Coriolanus preferred that they proceed in silence, just flying between the trees and you, but he didn't waste time worrying about a trivial thing. — He just wanted to keep listening to you, delighting and trapped in your domain.

The forest was before you and Coriolanus lying, interconnected, on the ground covered with a clean sheet and with a few grains of earth; Coriolanus' cold arm around your neck and you clinging to his chest.

Your fingers roamed Coriolanus's broad, clothed chest; his shirt was still a little wet from the contact of the water drops that remained on his body. — That didn't bother you, especially because dressed like him you were in the same situation. — Developing a long affection, a movement of imaginary drawings, and complemented more comfort in Coriolanus; even with your head in your backpack with the intention of turning it into a pillow, completely uncomfortable.

But the young boy still had his eyes closed, as if he were in his old bed with his thin, worn blanket and with you next to him; even if his bed can't fit him properly. — Deepened in his voice and the attention he received. — Coriolanus was in the paradise he was once told about.

Until an unwelcome and inopportune silence revealed itself, not even the noises and songs of the birds continued, only the natural sounds of trees and branches struggling. — Coriolanus was surprised, feeling misunderstood and uncomfortable.

Your song is gone, like a deer that has seen its hunter or like a snowflake that has melted; an unpleasant, and even unhappy, impression for Coriolanus. — Not even his punishment, his pain at having been humiliated and defamed, bothered Snow as much as not hearing your voice.

The current peacekeeper opened his eyes, revealing his deep blue irises; that caused commotion and emotions never felt by you, by your naive heart. — Blessed and scrupulous eyes, just like his surname. — Looking to find out what could have caused your silence.

And so Coriolanus found your dreamy and enchanting eyes looking at him; shining against him. — It was, indeed, impressive how you transmitted your passion and a flame of pleasure so easily into your orbits; Coryo was intrigued by this.

Was Coriolanus truly worthy of such admiration and passion? — Your eyes completed his slender face, with mature and serious features, which still contained his pure features; memorizing every sign, every tip of his face as if it were the last time. — Did he deserve that?

"Oh, Coryo…" — His nickname came out delicately, almost a careful whisper, like a little secret from your lips; you had a tone of caution and moderation. — "I thought you fell asleep." — Coriolanus noticed a movement on the inside of your cheek, you bit it nervously.

A sleepy and presumptuous wave, influenced by your song, began to slowly guide Coriolanus' consciousness before the sudden interruption. — His stubborn and heavy eyes stated the fact and, inside you, he identified it before he himself understood it.

You knew that young boy like the back of your hand, like a map that you observed and analyzed for so long until you memorized it with desire and ambition. — Something incompressible and bitter in some eyes, however, something so worthy for him; something he never received in his ordinary life.

"Again..." — Now, an intensely hoarse and robust tone of voice vibrated in your head and mind, awakening something in you; it was a possible incomplete request coming from Coriolanus. — Something that quickly became confusing.

Not understanding, in a way, your furrowed eyebrows presented themselves to the boy, wanting him to at least specify what he was asking for. — Your lips were pressed together, still nervous, and curled in waiting. — And, during the seconds, the familiar thin fingers with some cuts, caused by the current duties, were involved between the strands of your hair.

Even with the heavy feeling of pure sleep, and insisting against it, Coriolanus distributed a sweet and melodic affection to you; it wasn't a surprising action, of course, however, in a certain way and aspect it was something different. — A reason, a feeling, emotion; a way to thank you for being so lucky to have you, to be with you. — Comforting and confronting the certainty that he deserved you.

"Sing again…" — Coriolanus uttered his request confidentially, as an act of rebellion against his silence and stubbornness, seeming like it would be his last request. — He was trapped in you, perhaps, even wrapped around your little finger, being able to build and destroy lives by your soul.

The heavens asked for mercy for the burning passion that burned uncontrollably and thrashed in the Snow boy's freezing chest. — Because they knew, and had in their minds, what he would do for you.

You wouldn't dare deny that request, which held itself in a dedicated place in your mind; your heart was racing, and Coriolanus felt it, on such an exaggerated level between words and fallacies. — And the shy, at the same time, exalted smile curved on your lips; trying to focus and return to reality.

And, for the countless time, you found yourself in love with Coriolanus.

Coriolanus listened and witnessed a brief, enchanting laugh from his lover, as you moved even deeper into his chest. — Wanting to fit into it, like a head-scratching piece. — And at no time or for any reason, he removed his fingers from your hair.

Your voice was present again in Coriolanus's ears, among the melodic noises of the birds and the contacts between the trees and branches; Your voice was part of that environment. — It was the same song, there was nothing different or any modification. — The life of Coriolanus had seduced itself into her.

The young boy felt that feeling of peace around him, becoming part of his body and mind. — He felt protected and loved, just like little Coriolanus with his mother.
