St Matthew’s church in Bethnal Green

One of the many joys of London is constantly coming across the unexpected. Having never seen it before, I stumbled across the impressive St Matthew’s whilst in Bethnal Green taking urban photographs for London Edge.

Devil’s Nutting Day/ St Matthew’s Day/ Autumn Equinox

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, Punch the Devil in the Face by Elizabeth Zelasko. Source: elizabethzelasko.com

Today is Devil’s Nutting Day, when Satan would habitually come to earth to gather early autumn nuts. One year, in Warwickshire, he ran into his implacable foe, the Virgin Mary. The devil was terrified of the incorruptible mother of Jesus, who promptly ordered him not to move but to surrender to her so she could take him to Heaven to receive judgement from God the Father. While the Virgin was distracted removing her girdle to use to bind her infernal enemy in readiness for his journey to face divine justice, Satan seized his chance and flung his sackful of nuts at Mary, and fled, leaving her in full possession of Lucifer’s nut store that year, but minus her satanic prisoner. The resultant nut mound eventually became a grassy hill, known as The Devil’s Nut Bag.

Today is also the feast day of the Evangelist St Matthew, on which it is said ‘Matthew’s Day bright and clear/ Brings good wine in next year’. At Baunton in Gloucestershire, the saint was credited with the miracle of a bleeding table on his feast day in 1646. Sceptics have since decided the phenomenon was an outbreak of the red wood microbe Serratia marescens.

Today is also the Autumn Equinox. Although druids will turn up at Primrose Hill to greet the new season, modern pagan autumnal celebrations have largely shifted to Samhain/Halloween at the end of October.

Coined the "Hundred Guilder Print" due to the exorbitant sum it allegedly fetched in Rembrandt's time, this etching carries the formal title, "Christ Healing the Sick." It was a culmination of Rembrandt's unique vision, where biblical storytelling met the depths of human empathy, all underscored by his inimitable technical skill.

This artwork, created around 1646-1650, combines several stories from the Gospel of St. Matthew. In a crowded scene, Christ is seen addressing various groups of individuals. His divine light, a metaphorical and literal theme in the etching, reaches out to the characters, each revealing their own unique stories.

୨ PODCAST ୧

summary: matt leaves the podcast because of his brother's jokes, and y/n comforts him.

warnings: cussing, sad, fluff

notes: this fanfic was a request! also english is not my first language so im sorry about any mistake

୨୧

The day with the Triplets has been a little stressful, specially for Matt. Each time he spoke, his brothers would joke saying that he was being way too ‘depressed’ and ‘miserable’. Or Nick would always answer with ‘Yeah, yeah nobody wants to hear about that shit’.

Now, after they invited me to their podcast, here I am, sitting next to my boyfriend, holding his hand gently.

As Chris and Nick keep talking over their brother, calling him ‘Miserable Matt’ I could see him getting more annoyed, his eyes watering, and it feels like I'm the only one seeing his discomfort.

I don’t really know what to do, cause obviously his brothers are just joking, and I'm not sure how to intervene without making things awkward.

They keep teasing him over and over.

“I'm not going to sit here for like another 55 minutes or some shit.” Matt’s voice getting slowly lower.

“What? What was that? That mumble? I can’t understand you.” The older triplet mocks him, but he tries to ignore it. “Ok go ahead-“

“Now you are ‘mumble Matt’ too” Chris laughs after Nick’s comment. “It's like I can't even understand what you are saying, sounds like rocks rolling down a hill, your voice”

I try to end the conversation "Can we just-" Before I can finish, Chris and Nick burst into laughter "Can we start the podcast?" I try again, but Matt lets out a heavy sigh.

Nick continues “it literally sounds like an avalanch coming out of your mouth” Matt gets up aggressively, starting to leave the room “I’m not doing this shit anymore.”

“Oh come on Matt!” Chris says chucking. They laugh some more as I just think of what to do. I get up from my seat, hurrying after him “Hey.. Matt..” I begin, attempting to catch his attention. However, before I could reach him, he gets in his room, and slams the door in my face, leaving me standing outside. I'm sure this is not just about the stupid jokes they were making.

I hesitate for a moment before making any move, thinking if I should open the door, i’m sorry, but I can't just ignore the urge to check on him.

With a deep breath, I reach out and calmly push the door open. Inside, I find Matt lying on his bed, his face buried in his pillow, shoulders shaking with silent sobs.

“Can we talk love?” I say quietly closing the door behind me.

He lifts his head, his eyes red and puffy, his expression a mixture of sadness and anger. "What do you want?" His voice defensive.

Ignoring his tone, I move closer and sit on the bed.

With a gentle touch, I reach out and place my hand on his back, offering a silent gesture of comfort. For a moment, we sit in silence, until I interrupt it.

“Can you tell me what has been going on lately?” I ask softly, my voice filled with concern.

“Nothings going on” He sniffs, still with his face in the pillow “I’m fine” His voice barely above a whisper.

I shake my head, not trusting his words. "You don't seem fine to me" He stays silent, I take a deep breath.

I adjust my position, leaning against the headboard of the bed. I decide to take a different approach instead of talking “Come here..” I pat the spot next to me, in sign for him to come closer “Let's just cuddle for a bit."

He completely stops acting rude in the moment I suggest it, Matt scoots closer, laying his head on my chest, his arms around my waist. I stroke his smooth brown hair. I kiss the top of his head. We stay like this for some good ten minutes.

He presses his face into the crook of my neck and whispers with a shaky voice “I’m just so fucked up..”

Gently, I cupped his cheeks, lifting his head from my neck, making him look into my eyes “Matt.. Why do you say that?”

"I just.. I don't know" He admits. "I'm just so fucking exhausted of feeling like this all the time..”

I sigh, I hate seeing him in this state. “Since when do you feel like that?” I wait patiently for Matt's response, he looks away.

“I don’t know.. For some long time now.. I guess I've been trying to push it away, but it just keeps coming back, over and over.” As he spoke, I could see the pain in his eyes.

"I'm sorry I couldn't see it sooner babe.." I whisper, reaching out to gently brush away his tears. "I should have known something was wrong." I kiss his forehead.

He shakes his head "It's not your fault" He murmurs "I don’t want you to worry"

I wrap my arms around him, holding him close. "But I do worry, Matt" I confess softly. "I care about you more than anything."

He buries his face deeper into my chest. "I love you so much.." He whispers, his voice muffled by the fabric of my shirt.

"I love you too.." I whisper back in his ear, squeezing him tightly.
