So we know Alastor and Lilith disappeared at the same time 7 years ago. And we know that Lucifer had a meeting with Heaven which began the exterminations. We don't know when that happened though. Either they're not mentioning when the exterminations started because they've always happened or because revealing when they started would give too much away and make it too easy to guess things. All Charlie knows is that Lucifer went to the meeting and she assumes he gave the go ahead for exterminations. But the exterminations haven't always happened. They only started after the angels, or specifically Sera I think considering no other angels knew about it, became afraid of the power and influence Lilith had over the demons.
My current theory is that that meeting was called between Sera, Adam, and Lucifer because Alastor and Lilith were planning on working together with him broadcasting her voice on his radio station to inspire the other demons to rise to war against the angels. I think Sera demanded that Lilith and Alastor be separated with Lilith making a deal with Adam to stay in heaven where she can't empower any other demons with her voice or even contact anyone in hell and that Sera demanded the exterminations happen as well in order to not only lessen the demons' power but also instill fear in them in an attempt to prevent future uprisings. I think Alastor was given the options of either be killed or sign a contract limiting his power and requiring him to stay away for a while so that their little idea of rebellion is forgotten amongst the masses. I especially think that because of Zestial's comment about folks thinking Alastor had fallen to holy arms. Maybe Sera is his contract holder. That or they tried to straight up kill him and he somehow escaped barely alive and it's taken this long for him to heal and regain enough power for him to feel comfortable revealing himself to society. But trying to kill him wouldn't explain the contact or his need to 'unclip his wings'.

a little song i made myself ^-^
i had a little hiccup on the chords on the chorus and the recording setup i have rn isnt great cause my guitar is waaay louder than my voice (also im still emulating ukulele on a classical guitar) but yeah whatever we ball here
lyrics under cut
aren't we restricted
with this simple system
of what any of us can be or do
aren't we behind things
when we tell our children
don't play with dolls, don't play with cars
but what's this thing we do
we're forcing things that don't make sense
we're placing them in molds we pressed
but what's a spork to do
in a world for forks and spoons
Is this what life turned to be
Why are things a binary
Perhaps life's a simulation
It's just a 0-1 dimension
we're forcing things that don't make sense
we're placing them in molds we pressed
but what's purple to do
in a world of red and blue

Transcript:
Victoria: You’re like a boring old man, Trissy; you never come out anymore.
Tristen: You know why I don’t.
Victoria: Tch, aren’t you over that yet?
[Tristen pauses, clearly dumbfounded that anyone would even ask that kind of question]
Victoria: You could at least take me to this stupid wedding, I bought a new outfit.
Tristen: I told you not to, I don’t get a plus one-.. besides, you don’t even know them; I’m barely gonna know anyone there either.
Victoria: So, take me! Or, come out with us instead.
Tristen: We’ll do something when I get back-.. or the day after, I promise.
Victoria: [huffs] If you don’t wanna be seen with me, you could just say so.
Tristen: [sighs] That’s not what I-.. Vicky, wait!
Victoria: Whatever, I-…
[Matilda surreptitiously slides her boot toward Victoria as she storms off, successfully causing her to stumble]
Victoria: Jesus, watch where you’re putting those ridiculous boots!
Matilda: My bad.
Victoria: Stupid bitch-.. why don’t you buy some proper shoes, huh?
Matilda: Are those platform flip-flops?
Victoria: Pfft.
Matilda: Nice retort.
Tristen: You shouldn’t have done that.
Matilda: I can handle moody twats-.. y’know, since I am one.
Tristen: That’s.. not what I meant.
Matilda: Hm, ‘cause you’ll get it in the neck later?
Tristen: [shrugs] I hope you didn’t want anything; I’ve already cleaned the machines n’ stuff.
Matilda: Are you closing up?
Tristen: I’m trying to.
Matilda: Do you need a hand?
Tristen: It’s fine, I’m just waiting for those two-…
Matilda: Yeah, that’s what I was getting at.
[Tristen visibly cringes as Matilda loudly claps her hands together, shooing the loitering customers]
Matilda: C’mon losers, closing time! Beat it!
…
Tristen: You don’t have to; I’ll just ride my bike.
Matilda: In a suit? Oscar would kill me if I made you cycle to his wedding.
Tristen: That’s probably true-.. alright, thanks.
Matilda: I didn’t know you lived back here-.. makes sense.
Tristen: See? Not a creepy stalker.
Matilda: I mean, you still could be.
Tristen: Well, I’m not.
Matilda: You know I’m just fucking with you, right? I don’t actually think that.
Tristen: I kinda thought you meant it…
Matilda: Eh, I say and do a lotta shit I don’t really mean. I’m working on it.
Tristen: Good luck with that-.. not sarcasm, sorry.
Matilda: [snorts] Be ready at twelve.

As someone who grew up barely protestant, the only consistent church service I went to was Christmas and the nativity play at my junior school until I went to a secular high school and also as someone that unironically likes the glee version of some songs and had like a 5 month long high school musical kick recently, just generally likes musicals:
Journey to Bethlehem is actually so entertaining and they did not have to go so hard with the songs. I could immediately tell it was a modern retelling not intending on being accurate (biblically or historically) and that's fine. It's a movie with Milo Manheim and a donkey named Fig as a repccuring character, it's meant to be campy and for shits and giggles.

Honestly my favorite part about the Junos birthday episode is 100% Harley doing the end card because, quote, “Kevin is out of state and forgot to being his microphone with him. So”
And them reading the patreon name “Kevin please say butts on live recording thanks” and going “sorry about that”
Also I love Kevins voice, partially because of his ability to maintain that calm monotone, but being able to *hear* Harley smile as they read out the more ridiculous patreon names was just wonderful.

...So I may have went a little insane designing the MC from @psychopomp-enthusiast's Blade x Reader fic To Mourn The Living
Am I confident in my art skills? Lmao (No)
I am not rendering this (I did have an idea for the highlights but) it's 5 am oh god and if I don't go lie down right now I am not waking up tomorrow (Today at 8)
I tried to keep the design androgynous but well. Am Girl. So I am a little biased towards Reader being also Girl. I think I did ok tho
The first HSR fanart I've made and it's fanart of a fanfic. Typical me behaviour tbh
I did research for this for some reason like I stared really hard at a couple wiki tabs for a while (Haven't seen actual scales on either of our High Elders) and skimmed the fic again. The scales were specified to be silver?
While doing the aforementioned research I think I've crafted a theory? I somehow completely missed that there is more than one High Elder, like there are other ships that have their own High Elders too and like??? I'm making some connections??? Is this a "I've connected the dots" moment? Who knows.
I did think maybe the whole storms thing had something to with Jing Yuan and his Lighting-Wielding Thunder-Clapping Spirit-Squashing Lord (YESSSSS FIRST TRY BABY OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD) but the whole thing with black hair and evil vibes just felt off to me. AND THEN. Until I get a reply on this/the fic gets updated I won't say anything further, but ough. I am so normal about the media I consume guys
I kinda felt like putting the scale pattern on the outfit was a little OOC since MC was mentioned to not really follow Vidyadharan customs, but I also figured they were close to Bailu and have horns so? Maybe?
I gave MC blue hair because Ice type. I was gonna give them really long hair, but then again, not a High Elder. The hair was mentioned to obscure their horns underwater tho so I think some length is fine?
It was actually really hard to find physical descriptions of the MC? I mean for a fic like this, that's actually a good thing, it gives me more leeway to do whatever I want but also literally one of the reasons why I don't do fanart is because I wanna be accurate as possible (This is probably some kind of anxiety thing, idk)
