Forgive : "To this end was I born"

John 18:37 - King James Version

Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then ? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

There any way to make the Master like . . . good? Interesting? Anything other then a knockoff Graf Orlok?

Buffy's main arc in S1 is her struggling with growing up - accepting her destiny and therefore her metaphorical adulthood. This is why all the villains are in a state of arrested development - the Master stuck in place like a cork in a bottle, the Anointed held forever as a child. They represent, as vampires do in general at this point in the show, the danger of Buffy never growing up, never accepting adulthood and the transformation that comes with it.

Villains in this show are always metaphorical representations of some struggle Buffy is facing. The problem is that in this pre-Spike&Drusilla era, they are only metaphorical representations, and not, y'know, actual characters. Which is why the Master feels so flat and uninspired compared to the villains of later seasons.

I think the most interesting angle would have been to really dig into the Anointed One and the Master's relationship to him. Perhaps developing a father/son dynamic between them. This would have added humanity to both of them, and also highlighted the parallels between Buffy/Colin and Giles/the Master. The Chosen/Anointed with a Watcher/Master who, in a quasi-paternal way, guides then to a fatal destiny. The Master/Giles parallels are hinted at, but digging into them a little more could have been really interesting.

The Gospel of Philip - [

Yeshua, María Magdalena and the gnosis of the sacred union. The tree of the knowledge of happiness and unhappiness killed Adam; but the tree of true knowledge, the tree of life, enlivens humankind. The law [nomos] is a tree which separates good and evil; happiness and unhappiness offer nothing beyond. It is not for humans to avoid evil or establish themselves in good. When it was said: “Eat…

A Few Things For Us To Think About ( #1318 )

A Few Things For Us To Think About ( #1318 ) 1.) If you know that a person is greedy why would you ever trust them? 2.) If a person will ever look you in the face and lie to you, they are not your friend! 3.) If a person is proud of them self, they are the walking dead! 4.) The word Christ means ” the Anointed One! ” 5.) Love, compassion and dignity are so sorely missed in our society today! 6.)…

(mgv) house's suppression of his omega urges leads to them getting silly when he's older btw. that's kind of why he returned chase's imprint eventually. it's not uncommon for younger omegas to look up to the older ones but chase's view on house is more extreme (adoption basically. ur my dad now :3c ) thanks in part to his own issues. and because house has deprived his own instincts, willingly or not, for companionship (or pack, even, if you wanna get neolithic with it) he ends up surrendering to this role over time (okay guess i'm your dad now)

of course they're both grown men at that point so it's not like they're having lessons of Life Skills or whatever. the only changes in their relationship are just giving tokens (99% of the time are just vending machine snacks; little treats to tell each other they're still there) and chase getting a little clingy around his heats.

#house md #house has a draw to him befitting his main character status #something about trauma something about being an omega something about him #one time house anointed his scent onto chase by pressing his thumb to his gland and running it over chase's forehead #rumbling “simbaaaa....” and it made chase snicker #i am very tired i need a nap but i have Thoughts Happening #omega social-familial banding...... not bonding but banding. bc they band together #ape together strong yknow #maybe it's an aspect of a deprecated system or something. like how unbonded omegas would stay together in groups for safety #something like that i don't know i'm ujst sayin shit #mgv

“His sweat became like drops of blood,” the Evangelist said. He sweated to heal Adam who was sick. ‘It is by the sweat of your brow.’ said God, ‘that you will eat your bread.’ He remained in prayer in this garden to bring Adam back into his own garden again.”
