The Ghouls Love You

uhm...

Aether ripping his jacket open with one hand? The casual guitar toss? The belly patting? The leanback?

My feral level is through the roof

YOU WILL PAY FOR MY THERAPY.

"Everything"

Rite Here Rite Now Spoilers!!

Tw!: Crying, Flower language (like flower meanings), letting go

"You look amazing Pa-Copia! Just like Dracula!"

Phantom says happily as he looks at copias new look, he flaps his hands in excitement despite the slight tears in his eyes

Copia smiles and nods, a bit flustered and nervous about everything

"thank you Amore Mío"

Copia is on the way to his new office and the Ghouls are lined up on the way to his new office

He steps to Aroura who is already teary eyed and it's clear a few have already fallen

She takes a shaky breath before speaking

"Papa, I may not have known you for that long but..you were the best Papa anyone could ask for"

She says, originally planning to have more of a speech but her tears unable to let her continue

"Thank you, Princepessa" he says, wiping his eyes

He takes a step to Swiss who has a soft smile on his face

"Well, you've made it Papa"

Swiss says trying to hold back the tears since he doesn't like emotional moments

He rubs his thumb over his hand as he stands straight

"I'm proud of you Copia" Swiss manages to get out with his voice only breaking a bit

"Thank you Swiss"

Copia says before taking a step to Cumulus

She wipes he eyes as the tears fall, Cirrus holding her hand she squeezes back before taking a deep breath and speaking

"I'm so proud of you Copia, I knew you could make it through"

She says with glossy eyes as she pulls out a small thing from her pocket

"Here"

She says as he holds out his hands and she gently places a small Crochet daffodil bloom flower in between his hands

He smiles and sniffles

"Thank you"

He takes a deep shaky breath before walking to Cirrus

Cirrus smiles

"Congratulations Papa"

She says softly

"But even as Frater Imperator you still can't get rid of us"

She says jokingly with a small laugh

Copia laughs and smiles, holding the crochet flower to his heart

"wouldn't have it any other way"

He smiles before walking to rain

"Wow" Rain says with a smile

"You made it after working hard, take you break Papa, you deserve it" Rain says as he holds copias hand before gently letting go

"Will do" Copia says with a nod and smile

Copia takes a deep breath before walking to Mountain

"You did it Papa" Mountain says, a few years clearing fallen down his cheeks

"You need anything, come to us but please relax on your time off. I've seen you work from Cardinal to now"

Mountain takes a deep breath before speaking

"Frater Imperator"

He says as another tear falls

Copia sniffles as a tear falls, leaving a mark in the black face paint around his eyes

Copia smiles and looks down before standing up right and taking a deep breath and walking towards Dew

Dew smiles and takes a step forward

"Well Papa, you did it" Dew says as he holds out his hand and copia takes it

"We've seen you grow from Cardinal to Papa to now Frater Imperator. Been through all of your struggles with you and now look at you! Youve made it. Relax and take your time, you deserve it"

Dew takes a breath before speaking, his eyes watering

"We'll Miss You, But you'll always be here. And we'll always be here for you, if you need anything, anything just come to the den" Dew says before hugging copia tightly, tears now running down his face

"I'm so proud of you Copia, you deserve this" Dew says af they hug

After a few minutes of silence copia speaks loud enough for everyone to hear

"thank you"

"For what Papa?" Some of the ghouls say, all of them listening non the less

"Everything"

They’re so gross /af

An interesting angle if you ask me.

SO REAL

i wake up, think "SWUMMY" and then peacefully go back to sleep

Me too man, me too

Rain has a nerf gun on his bedside table so he can turn of the light without getting out of bed

This is probably related to my personality, state of mind and core values, but I view Lord Ares' energy a bit different than what I see here.

To me, Lord Ares is calm. He is the motto "It is scary because it's unfamiliar, not because you're incapable." He reminds me that I can do it scared. That I can be scared, be anxious, that I can tremble from fear and still do something. That courage is born when you are scared, and still make a step forward.

He is not my shield - He lets me face my challenges face-on, but He's always got my back. Maybe that's a reflection of myself, my life story and shit I've been through: I am scared of having my back turned to someone, but with Him having my back, I am safe. I can do it, no matter how scared I am.

He is also the reminder that sometimes acting will only hurt me. That there are situations where all I can do is wait. He pats my back and says "I know it's hard, but you will make it," while I shed my tears of helplessness and longing.

He is calm, and firm. He teaches me when to say "I see you, I see your feelings, but I won't let you treat me like this." He teaches me that anger is good. Anger is often self-love. But being angry does not entitle me to act in ways I do not like. He is the hand on my shoulder, the silent "Stop, breathe, and then act."

He is gentle. He is calm. But He takes no shit from me. He understands how I feel. He understands that some things are better to leave alone for a while. He understands that sometimes the best thing I can do is not to fight. To wait things through.

He pushes me forward. He shows me I can do more. When I think I can't do any more reps of some exercise, He tells me "Just 10 more. I know you can." When I think I can't keep going, He is there to tell me I can.

I am grateful to worship Lord Ares.
