I can totally see Cu and Robin bonding over thier dislike of clergy members. Robin for being bled to death by a nun, twice and Cu distrusting them because of Kirei. Cu also wouldn't like the clergy because he probably holds a grudge for the Christianization of Ireland, when Christians steamrolled over the already existing religion, which I imagine Cu is very salty about.
Oh yeah, I’m sure Cú has some Thoughts™️. Every time I think of Kirei I think of that post of how funny it is literally everyone normal in BW fucking hates him in sight like Shirou who tries to be nice to everyone, without the man having given away his personality or secrets, on sight is like “actually fuck that guy” bc his vibes are so rancid. Love that post. Circling back though yeah. I am sure there’s a lot of bitterness and hatred towards the damage and loss to his culture and people. I don’t think Robin would be effected enough by what happened to dislike clergy himself from it, but it would be super funny for his first initial reaction to seeing one the next time he : / because it’s been a week and memories fresh and Cú to be like ‘whips out lance’ “I got you” Robin: “Cú -Cú WAIT-”
Know Lancer has his learned disappointment and dread of masters, like, even for a heroic spirit. High intensity dread. But I wonder aside from Medb what he would have carry-over trauma from. He’s a tough cookie, but life has put them all through the proverbial wood chipper.

Andre (inside job) with a professional personal chef as a s/o hc!!!
You got it!
CW// drugs
- let me tell you, all that man knows is cheap take out, a shit ton of snacks, and edibles. So it’s safe to assume he literally cannot cook for shit.
- when you came into his life, it was like some sort of gift. [he was surprised that you had even decided to cook for him the first time, though]
- Andre absolutely adores watching you cook, whether he be absolutely zooted or sober [it’s one of the few moments where he can actually calm down and not have to worry about his OCD with all of the movement and calculations that happen in the kitchen]
- he likes to joke that you and him are on opposite sides of the spectrum [“cooking and drugs? What a pair.”] he says that like edibles don’t exist. Smh
- if you ever make a childhood dish that he probably doesn’t even remember? This man is on his knees, ready to propose with a ring pop
- please get this man a healthy diet. Consuming drugs on a regular basis while also constantly having subpar fast food on the daily is bound to have consequences, so just treat him right.
- genuinely, he’s so grateful for you. He loves coming home from work to see a beautiful display of food that you had somehow whipped up while he was gone [he could’ve sworn it took longer to make that]
- you once made him something after a really stressful work day and he couldn’t stop crying [in the /pos way, I swear]
- okay but hear me out: him trying to cook with you
- he’s like an excited kid who wants to help. He offers to do small tasks, gets excited about opening a can with a can opened- he asks if he can lick anything off of a spoon, out of the bowl, etc.
- he’s a menace to chef culture [™️], but you love him, and he loves you
- he also once tried to cook something but ended up nearly burning half the kitchen down, but we don’t talk about that.

About the yzy ask you answered: I do feel wary saying this because I'm fully White™️ and scared of being Unwoke but I do think sometimes just because something is culturally appropriate does make it right. Anyone's who's ever taken anthropology 101 will have heard of some fucked up thing another society deems normal/rite of passage and obviously as scientists you need to be respectful of whoever you study but in our personal life it's alright to say actually I think hitting children at all is very morally wrong. I'm constantly shocked by how common it is in most places and how bad child protection policies are ("smacking" and "using reasonable force" with children are scarily common phrases for what's legal). I guess I don't actually care that much if it makes me culturally inconsiderate. Hurting children is not and never has been ethical! What a controversial take🙄
respecting someone's culture =/= Saying it's fine if they whip a child. Saying it's ok if they oppress and harm the vulnerable members of their society.
If you start including these things under the umbrella of culture, where do you draw the line? I guess it depends how much of your morals you're willing to barter in exchange for seeming accepting of things that should not be accepted. When something infringes on the health and well being of those who can't protect themselves that's no longer "respecting culture" that's being an accessory to fucked up shit. If those hurt people were to look out into the world and see others supporting their treatment how would they feel? There are plenty of aspects of different cultures deserving of respect; language, literature, art, philosophy etc. I don't understand these reaches that try to conflate clear abuses with "culture". Who does this benefit other than the people doing the abusing and perhaps the morons supporting it so they can circle jerk about their wokeness.
This world is going to shit because people care more about how they're perceived and the performative value their stances and opinions have when they air them out on social media, vs how they actually act and what's right. And of course there are those who have figured out that they can meet with relative success if they demand unquestioning acceptance of fucked up shit vehemently enough and deem any objections raised "not woke >:-/". So I don't give a fuck about "looking woke". It's not my drive in life to please some ever changing standard of behavior that some fuckwit stranger wants to judge me on so they can feel better about their miserable existence wherein their entire self worth is founded on how others see them.
It's ironic that this discussion is taking place around MDZS when Wei Wuxian is the hero of the story precisely because he stands up against the majority and what they deem permissible.
Wei WuXian, “Did I say something wrong? Forcing living people to be bait and beating them up whenever they refused to obey—is this any different from what the QishanWen Sect does?”
Another guest cultivator stood up, “Of course it’s different. The Wen-dogs did all kinds of evil. To arrive at such an end is only karma for them. We only avenged a tooth for a tooth, letting them taste the fruit that they themselves had sown. What’s wrong with this?”
