There's this neapolitan savory dish called 'casatiello' that is usually prepared during Easter week. As an Italian my sill hc is that Primo comes from Naples shsfsgsh so this is the result. He made it for his brothers and him ONLY! No Nihil allowed!
Translation=
Primo:I made casatiello. Come and eat before that piece of shit (Nihil) comes back.
Secondo: Let's go, Primo. 😎
Terzo: Now we eat!

Primo Emeritus: Florence.
This is the first of my posts where I locate each Papa in Italian cities based on the occult influences/history of each city. I hope you find it interesting and useful!
Primo Emeritus, The Old One, the embodiment of all that is sacred. A personality like his deserves to be located in an ancient city full of art, poetry, and history, shaped by the esoteric and alchemical obsessions of the Medici family, amidst the enduring shadow of centuries-old Satanic cults.
Let’s see why I have chosen Florence for Primo.
In this chapel of ritual…
From the early 70s to the late 80s, a series of murders occurred in various regions of middle-north Italy, with the most infamous taking place in Tuscany, known as the case of the 'Monster of Florence' (Mostro di Firenze), which resulted in the deaths of 14 people - officially, but it is believed there were way more.
The theory is that these murders were part of a large network of Satanic rituals involving influential figures from Rome, Perugia, and Florence. This network is supposedly still active. The original cult allegedly responsible for initiating these rituals seems to be the 'Rosa rossa' (Red Rose) cult.
A fertile ground for writing Ritual...
2. The creator of Hell.
Florence is the birthplace of Dante Alighieri, the renowned author of the Divine Comedy and the creator of the now canonical structure of Hell.
Primo could have had many more things in common with Dante than we expect: indeed, it is said that Alighieri was part of an esoteric cult named ‘Fedeli d’Amore’ (Loyals to Love), probably affiliated with the Templars. From there, Dante is said to have drawn inspiration for his symbolic and esoteric tales, as well as his passion for numbers.
Keep an eye on Dante, as he will eventually come back in the next chapters.
3. The ghost behind the open window.
It’s not a Ghost story without an actual ghost.
In Piazza Santissima Annunziata, there is a building, Palazzo Grifoni, that holds a mysterious detail: a window that remains open at all times, whether day or night, summer or winter. Legend has it that a woman of the Grifone family bid farewell from that window to her lover, likely Ferdinando I, who departed for war. She waited for him by that same open window throughout her life, but he never returned, dying in battle. When she passed away, the window was finally closed. However, soon after, numerous mysterious events happened in the building, to the point the residents concluded that the building was haunted by the ghost of the woman, and they have kept the window open ever since not to upset her.
But that's not all: the Ferdinando I statue placed in the square, has his face turned to look right to that window… At the very end, he finally came back to her.
4. The Boboli alchemical garden.
Boboli represents a very particular case of an alchemical garden conceived to be ‘accessible’ only to those who have a strong alchemical and esoteric knowledge. It is built as a symbolic route where you can contemplate the principles of magical and alchemical doctrine along the way. You’ll be welcomed by two fountains, placed one on top of the other: the Mose’s (it is an indoor fountain) and the Carciofo’s (artichoke). They are believed to represent the esoteric concept of “as above so below”, but the references to esoteric concepts are present along the whole garden.
Primo would have surely loved this place.

Headcanons about Papa's when you get a medical exam
Primo
He's freaking worried about you!
He will come into the office with you and talk to the doctor himself, even if you ask him to stay in the corridor. He can't leave you in such a terrible situation!
Hold your hand during any procedures and whispers how well you cope with everything, how great you are;
If you feel too unwell, he will find you a wheelchair and carry you around in it;
Sitting in line for a long time, he will begin to grumble and walk back and forth along the corridor;
After the examination, he will buy you some treats, because you endured it all so bravely!
Secondo
He undoubtedly worries about your condition, but tries to control himself so that you don’t start to be even more afraid;
Every time he asks you if you want him to come into the office with you. If so, he will stand quietly near the door, glaring at the doctor with his stern gaze. But he can also calmly wait for you in the corridor;
If you feel really bad, he will carry you in his arms (and it doesn’t matter how much you weigh, he will still do it!);
He, like Primo, will hold your hand during the procedures;
When you get home, he'll cook your favorite dinner and fill a bubble bath for the two of you. You need to relax after such a hard day.
Terzo
So you can’t tell right away which of the two of you is feeling bad - you or him, because he’s very worried;
He still understands that you need his support, so he will try to calm down his panic and do everything possible for you;
Asks a bunch of questions to the doctor, such as “what to do?”, “what medications are needed?”, “could there be complications?”, “can we have sex?”;
He never lets go of your hand, and during procedures he sits you on his lap;
If you feel very bad, he is ready to be a support for you, or is ready to carry you in his arms, or will find a wheelchair, or ask Omega to carry you. In general, he will do as you ask;
After all this, he will decide that you definitely need to drink some wine and relax in bed *wink wink*
Copia
He's not just worried, he's panicking! How did this happen? When did you get sick? Does something hurt you? What's bothering you, topo???
Behaves like a crazy mother whose child has a cold: she always goes to the doctor with you and talks to him, tells him your symptoms and asks a bunch of questions about your treatment;
It doesn't matter whether you can walk on your own in your condition or not, he wants you to lean on him;
He sneaks one of his rats in his jacket pocket and sometimes puts it in your arms to make you feel better;
During the procedures, he either holds your hand, or hugs your shoulders, or strokes your thigh, or strokes your head. He just wants to show that he is nearby;
After all this, he will arrange an evening cinema for you right in your bedroom, with your favorite treats and, of course, surrounded by your favorite rats (where would we be without them!)

Papa’s bestiary - a collection.
Finally, the whole set is done. I was pondering if posting Primo alone first but I really wanted to see the full collection because I’m ✨impatient✨. Maybe I’ll dedicate a post to his portrait in the future.
So yes! Who guessed goat for Primo and snake for Secondo was right, but it wasn’t as an easy choice as it may seem.
At the beginning I wanted to associate the Goat to Nihil and the snake to Sister Imperator, while I chose bats for Primo and ravens or a bull for Secondo, but I couldn’t help drawing Primo with the goats (the first version of his portrait was so different!) so I just sticked to the animals quoted in their songs.
I have other plans for Nihil and Sister Imperator though. They’ll come separately.
I’ve done some minor edits to some of them.
Ps. For those who requested to have them as prints… find them here.
