Sermon #2 | video

[raptura]

[Oh look, for once Pucci's putting his face to a post on the network! ...As username: viadolorosa still, but that's how it is sometimes. There's a few seconds of him trying to get a good angle on bracelet cam, before he smiles warmly and offers everyone a little wave.]

Hello. If we haven't met, I'm Father Pucci, and...I think that I can be of use to at least some of you. I've been under the impression that, even after some months here, adaptation to our need for chroma generation and the methods the moons drive us to use can still make people feel...Uncomfortable, I suppose. Amongst other things. And generally being in a new place with such differing morality can be hard.

So, what I'm offering is simple! We all have our social networks for the tough times, and services to assist with that besides. But if you just want to talk to someone, perhaps I can help you come to terms with this new place. Or simply listen if you have anything on your mind. I'm experienced with listening to people, as well as practicing confidentiality, for what that might be worth.

I'm sure you'll catch me around, if you're not willing to try and organise some sort of meeting at the moment. I hope that we can talk soon!

Reasonably classic pretty memeable 10/10. thank god some people here know anything i know.

what if crows learned how to use knives though. we'd be in trouble.

[raptura]

You'd be surprised! I've found at least a handful of people who come from Earth, and one who I even somewhat knew before I arrived. I find that musicians are a good yardstick of how similar our cultures are at least.

No matter the Earth, however...If crows could use knives, then we would absolutely be in trouble. They're far too clever as it is, and if they could hold sharp objects I wouldn't leave the house.

[witchwithoutacause]

we gotta start getting some of the music and movies and stuff here then.

for real though I'll knife fight a crow. I'll die but it'll be a worthy battle.

[raptura]

There's a way! There's a little shop, something with a Wolf in the name? And you can purchase a device that's rather like a bird in a cage, but it plays music from your homeland! I managed to nab one so I can listen to Handel. Though, if you want to borrow it, I can certainly allow that too; why not, right?

...I can't advocate knife-fighting a crow, however. Would such a swift death at the hands of nature's most cunning really be worth it when you could befriend them instead? I hear that they treat their friends very well!

[witchwithoutacause]

Handel huh woo boy goin' back to the olden times

maybe I'll check it out and see if I wanna try and get my own at least.

oh shit though having a bunch of knife crow buddies would be BADASS

I am still a priest, you know. Even if I'm a Cool Priest. ...Typing that makes me feel ill, I am so sorry for typing those words. Please forgive me for that abhorrent turn of phrase.

...An army of crows would be neat, though. You could have so many shiny things, and they could feast on your foes' eyeballs or generally cause a racket outside their apartment! Plus, they're just pretty. I've always loved their plumage.

[witchwithoutacause]

I think you gotta look to the big man for forgiveness right? that's what matters?

and yeah I mean I can fly so we can all keep up with each other too and then blam! enemies destroyed.

they are really nice looking too. but maybe that's my witch side talking.

[raptura]

Honestly? I feel like I should be more surprised by reading that you can fly because you're a witch. Not that I'd go burning you at a stake, mind, but somehow I'm a little less gobsmacked than I think I would've been, a few months ago.

I think as far as familiars go, though? Crows are for the thinking witch, and owls are for the witch who cares more about appearances. A brilliant bird who could keep you on your toes, versus a bird who fails basic cognitive tests? The choice is obvious.

[witchwithoutacause]

Oh yeah right I should've thought of that lol.

owls are quiet and have very big eyes and that's fine but crows are the real smart ones. and parrots but aesthetics you know?
