(@theyeontheskullship) what's your opinion on the glornists? 🎤
I hate those creeps! Especially their leader!
Why? Because I know he's not the loyal servant of Lord Hater he pretends to be. Dunno exactly what he's up to but, well...
I have never seen him gaze at Lord Hater in admiration. Which is how you'd, y'know, expect him to act when the Glornists claim him as their messiah or whatever their weird deal is.
No, that's how you appraise a specimen! And that's why I've got a hunch that he'd rather dismantle than bow down to him...

*Teddy received yet another voicemail, one of hundreds that came from the same number. An annoyed Bishop was on the other end.*
"Helloooo, Bowtie? Where are you? Hiding? Dead? Well I'll either find you or revive you because I NEED A NEW MITRE, MR. TAILOR!"
[Percy finally received a response almost 48 hours after he last saw "Bowtie"]
I deeply apologize for not answering sooner. Unfortunately I was busy recovering from the brink of death.
Please wait until at least the end of the week for me to work on it. In the meantime, either find an old mitre or think about the embroidery design because Giuseppe refused to sell me the pattern.
PS: I'm honored that you'd revive me for a piece of headwear.

Shamura practically shivered with excitement, though their circumstances were quite strange. The 9-year-old Spiderling hid in a laundry hamper as Reverend Mike pushed it along through the Skullship.
They’d never been far beyond the monastery in the Indigo Quarry, let alone off Locdeom! They hadn’t been aware such a thing was possible!
But they had been invited on by the Glornch in their pursuit of information on new Gods (and easily exploitable child labour didn’t hurt either).
Shamura had always been an obedient child, so they stayed quiet in the laundry, but of course they were also fascinated at all the new things the Skullship had to offer, so they peek out slightly to look around.

Shamura flinches as the older woman slams the table, ones above, they suppose they were even more glad they had pulled all that off, they didn’t want Priestess Miriam to have been poisoned!!! They perk as Gloria starts to pull Miriam away, but at the invitation to join they get up, they could definitely stomach, and they might be helpful, they helped the Prior quite often in the monastery infirmary. They look over to Bishop Percival and Mike, feeling like they maybe needed permission to abandon the table.
@bishop-percival
The priestess sighed and rolled her eye. “That twerp. It is Lola we’re talking about here. If she can repeatedly survive weeks in the labyrinth dimension, surely she can survive poisoning and a visit from Cane.” “Ahem,” Autumn interrupted as they turned and leaned over the back of their chair. “Gee Miriam, I wonder where Lola even got such a thing. I wonder if your little quest for her to scour the tunnels for a forbidden mushroom of legend led her to it.” Miriam widened her eye at this realization of complicity and briefly gave an ashamed glance at Gloria before scowling back at Autumn. “I-I didn’t think she’d actually find something…” Percival felt some eyes on him and looked up from his second bowl of soup. “...I dunno what’s going on any more. I don’t really care.” He went back to eating. Mike didn’t care about that whole situation either. He’d become much too accustomed to disastrous Glornist dinners. Something like this happened nearly every week. Besides, he was busy watching Percival like a specimen, interested in how eating this much food in one sitting might affect him with regards to his demonic transformation. Miriam gripped her fists and continued toward the door and grumbled. “I’ll treat her.”
Gloria was about to make a snarky remark about what "Cane" would do when Autumn spoke up. Her rage simmered as she waited for a chance to speak, and when Miriam met her eye she was met with a rare glare directed at her.
"Thank you for informing me~" Gloria said to Autumn with a sickly sweet tone and smile to match. "I assure you that your pal will be in tip-top shape soon!"
Both were dropped the instant she turned back towards the exit as "Tsk tsk... I expected better from you Miriam." Then she let out a breathy sigh and rolled her eye.
"Buuut I suppose that's what I get for thinking that any of my babies would be safe here, isn't it? You must help me transplant it later." The edge in her voice made it clear that it was a demand instead of a friendly request. And transporting a mycelium network was no simple task...
After they had been walking for a little while Gloria spotted a fuschia puddle glowing in the distance. "Follow the trail of which she spewed and you'll find her at the end."
Then she started heading down a different hallway as she flatly said, "Come knock on my door once you do. Our chances will improve if I starting brewing the antidote rather than slowing you down."

For once I'm inclined to agree with that commander on this. Your work has been so pathetic I'm counting down the days they'll strip you of your "scientist" title so you'll just be "watchdog" to everyone. Ahahaha. Almost a shame! Almost.
I thought I blocked you. How did you get back in my inbox. Shoo shoo shoo get go on.

Arthur: Alright, Gwaine, let me be frank.
Gwaine: As long as I can be Dean and Merlin can be Sammy.
Merlin: Why do I have to be Sammy?
Gwaine: Fine. He's Sammy. That makes you Joey Bishop. Is that what you really want, you want to be Joey Bishop?
Percival: Gwaine…
Gwaine: I'm sorry, Perce, but how often does someone set you up with "let me be frank?"

Hey remember when Bishop Percival dipped his hand in my wound and drank it? That was fun.
An-y-ways if any watchdogs-- especially soldiers-- give blood at the Glornists' blood drives I will kill you. This is not an empty threat.
If you gave blood before that bastard lapped up my blood you're fine I guess. Still an idiot who fueled their shady rituals for cookies or whatever. Can't really remove liabilities there without throwing myself out the airlock...

(Previous) The bishop looked at the sketch for a looong time. After much consideration, a cringe slowly grew across his face. “Nyeh… No. I can see it now. I try to wear those gaudy lappets. They tickle the back of my head. I no longer wear the gaudy lappets. This is starting to look too much like a contraption.” He closed the notebook and sighed as he handed it back to Teddy. “Your vision is grand, Bowtie, and I admire that. But I think I’m gonna loop back to what I said about extravagant subtlety. I’m keeping it short. But I’m keeping it sparkly~” Percival stood and dusted off his robe. “Anything else? Like I said, I’ll also text you the details I talked about so you can have it in writing, too."
...Well, so much for tricking Bishop Percival into becoming a living lightning rod. It would have been far too much work anyways, especially with only basic welding skills.
Teddy shook his head as he accepted the notebook. Then he tucked his sewing supplies into his bedside table's drawer, while being careful to keep his torso straight, and started his stamina-building walk.

The Tragic Accountant
It was a seemingly normal Slornday morning just like any other, and it was a few minutes before service was to start at the Glornch. Attendees were filing into the sanctuary and finding their seats in the pews.
Thomas was usually the last of the acolytes to arrive, and always chose to sit near the back. That morning, he was filled with more dread than usual. The past few weeks for him had been a rollercoaster of emotions, between gaining a new friend with Clay, a new hope in Gropism, a renewed fear of Glornism, and a possible enemy with Theodore, of all people. One thing was for sure, and it was that he'd rather be anywhere else but there. And yet, there he was.
Thomas’ dread was further compounded when he saw the fellow acolyte and wretched bully Sam sitting next to his usual seat. Thomas worriedly looked around for any other open spot, which was now trickier since the spectacle of Bishop Percival’s horrifying win against Commander Peepers drew more attention to Slornday services. Thomas spotted an empty seat next to some random watchdog, but before he could sit down, he felt the hood of his robe get tugged back.
“Hey c’mon Thomas pal, sit next to me!” Of course it was Sam.  
Thomas shuddered but put on a nervous smile. “O-okay!” He complied and sat down with Sam to prevent being tugged around more. 
“Uhm, why aren’t you sitting next to Amy? L-like usual?,” Thomas asked as he pointed toward the front.
Sam shrugged. "She’s mad at me. So I figured I’d sit next to my second bff, Thomas.”
“Second bff?,” Thomas repeated curiously. “Heh, but, y-you’re always saying how much you hate me, always making fun of me for being a friendless loser, always explaining in graphic detail all the ways you could kill me and—”
He was cut off when Sam put one arm around Thomas’ shoulders and pulled him close to give the top of his head a noogie.
“Are ya stupid? How long have you been a Glornist and still don’t know that’s just the way we speak ‘round here? ‘I hate you’ practically means ‘I love you!’ I give ya a tough time to harden you up! It’s what we’re supposed to do.” 
Thomas squirmed out of Sam’s grip and readjusted his red hood. “O-oh, well, it’s just-”
He was again interrupted when Sam slapped a hand to Thomas’ mouth. “Shh! It’s starting!”
🗲
The Most Reverend Bishop Percival ascended the pulpit and tapped the microphone on the podium within. He seemed a bit stern and lacked his usual playful energy. He’d been this way since losing his mitre.
“Salutations everyone, it’s my displeasure to welcome you all here this wretched Slornday morning into our mighty Church of Glorn. Today we’ll be holding our usual worshiper confessions, followed by my sermon titled “How You Can Harness Glorn’s Righteous Cruelty.” Following that is the historical discourse delivered by Reverend Mike titled,” Percy sighed as if he was bored from the mere title, “The Rise of the Intergalactic Mazka Empire Under Glornism and its Fall Under Gropism.”
“We will now begin with our commencement bows and claps. For you new faces among us, feel free to join in or simply observe.”
The Bishop led the congregation through the customary bowing and clapping, then wrapped up commencement with a prayer. Once he said ‘amen’ he sprang his head up and clasped his hands together.
“Alrighty, let’s begin our worshiper confessions, shall we? Any volunteers to start us off?”
Almost every Slornday, Sam was the first to shoot her hand up and go. But this morning, she stayed quiet and put. Thomas definitely noticed this unfamiliar behavior. Did Sam not do anything too evil this week and was reluctant to go? That didn’t seem like Sam… 
So Thomas sat wondering what could be going on as each appointed member of the congregation took turns proudly confessing their sins. Bishop Percival even let a few non-initiated congregants who had been regularly visiting give it a go. While the non-initiated were technically allowed to partake in confession, they weren’t required to like the initiated were. Percival usually ignored them as he thought they were often boring. 
Finally, the Bishop recognized the morning’s confession session was winding down, but he felt like he was forgetting some members. “Now who hasn’t gone yet?”
He squinted and scanned the audience before spotting his answer, sitting together. Ah, right, Thomas and Sam. Well the Bishop knew he’d pick Sam to confess over Thomas any day, so he excitedly pointed at him.
“Ah, Slimy Sam! Where’ve you been all morning? Get on up here and indulge your slimy sins to Glorn and us!”
Sam slowly rose from the pew and gave a bow. He spoke with eloquence unbecoming of him. “Respected Bishop, I must forewarn that my confession this morning is going to be quite unconventional. You see, instead of confessing my own sins, I wish to tell you about a grievous misdeed a fellow acolyte committed on his behalf.”
“Huh? What’re you talking about?,” Percy replied. 
“I wish to report the crimes of Thomas.”
Thomas�� eye widened with alarm. “O-on my behalf? But I’m right here! A-and I haven’t really done anything outside of my usual stuff…”
Sam looked at him. She bent down and retrieved a small business suitcase from under the pew. She then grabbed Thomas’ arm and pulled him to stand up.
“Whatever. May we come up to the pulpit, Bishop Percival?”
Percy figured it’d be fine to hit two birds with one stone to finally wrap up the confessions. “I’m annoyed, confused, and a little intrigued. Sure, get on up here you two,” he granted.
Thomas stumbled behind the confidant acolyte as they dragged him down the aisle. “S-Sam, what’re you doing? I really don’t have anything interesting, you can take your own turn..,” he whispered as he futilely tried to tug his arm out of Sam’s grip.
Sam didn’t reply to Thomas, but just smiled and continued forward. Thomas tried to run through positive scenarios in his head to give this situation yet another pathetic, flimsy benefit of a doubt. Maybe it was just another prank that was hopefully harmless in the end. Or maybe… What if Sam was trying to glamorize Thomas’ sins to help up his approval with Bishop Percival? If that was the case, maybe Sam… Did consider him a friend?
But upon catching a glimpse of Theodore on his way up to the pulpit, all wishful thoughts immediately flushed from Thomas’ head as he remembered their encounter at lunch a few days ago. 
Thomas was too nice. Too weak. Too naive. And the most likely to be sacrificed. Who was he kidding? Sam wasn’t dragging Thomas up there to help him, nor were they his friend. He knew full well he was being brought before the congregation to be exposed as a miserable Gropist. Just one slip up in front of Theodore really had led to this so quickly, huh?
It was hard to focus on thinking about ways to escape this situation when Thomas was so panicked. And before he knew it, he was up in the pulpit, Sam on his right still holding his arm in a vice grip, Bishop Percival on his left, and the entire congregation staring at him. 
Sam set the suitcase on the lectern and tapped the microphone. 
“Wicked freaks of the congregation, Thomas here has been holding out on us. He has been deceitful. The unfortunate thing is, however, his crime has not been Glorn-honoring. In fact it’s us who’ve been deceived!”
A smile creeped across the Bishop’s face as he tilted his head. “Oh? How so?”
Thomas was shaking and sweating. The entire time Sam was talking, he was praying to Grop. Silently, of course, as Theodore suggested. But… It just didn’t feel right. Being silent felt hopeless. Thomas then remembered something he read from the Gospel of Grop (or the Grospel, if you will.) It was an account of a disciple who, when surrounded and persecuted by adversaries, loudly proclaimed their faith in Grop. In turn, Grop granted them a miracle and allowed the disciple to escape safe and sound. It gave Thomas a sliver of hope. It was his last resort.
So when Percival asked ‘how so,’ before Sam could sling her accusation that she’d been looking forward to for weeks, Thomas shouted at the top of his lungs,
“Grop, allow me to survive these demons unscathed and you will gain a devout disciple!”
He then immediately sucker punched Sam in the face. While Thomas was by no means a strong watchdog, the surprise of it all made Sam let go while they recoiled. Freed, Thomas clambered on top of the lectern, over the railing to jump down from the pulpit, and made a beeline for the door. The audience, and surprisingly Bishop Percival, did nothing as they watched the heretic flee in shock. 
And Thomas actually made it out of the Glornch! Uncontested! It was a miracle! But it wasn’t over just yet. He still had to flee far, far away from the Skullship.
“Thank you, Grop! Thank you!,” he shouted as he continued running for the ship’s hangar.
🗲
Back in the Glornch, while the audience was abuzz about what just happened, Bishop Percival looked to Reverend Miriam sitting at the organ. She felt his gaze and looked back at him. He silently gestured his head toward the door. The priestess knew what that meant; she had a target to hunt down. She quietly got up and slipped through the main vestry door to take a back way out of the Glornch. 
The Bishop then turned to Sam. “Ya alright there?”
Sam finished rubbing his eye. “Pff, yeah. Like being punched by a butterfly or something.”
He then angrily gripped his fists onto the lectern, losing his previous eloquence. “Damn it! I was so excited to grill and expose that dumbass myself!” He gestured at the suitcase. “I even got like, criminalizing evidence on his laptop I stole. And Deacon Cyrus helped me get audio of him shit-talking the Glornch! All of that just for him to admit it himself and run away…”
Percival gave a reassuring smile. “Haha, ah, well rest assured Big Top Thomas will be held accountable for his heresy. We will not let Glorn be insulted like this!” He then placed a hand on Sam’s shoulder. “Regardless, thank you for bringing it to our attention, Slimy. And I would still like to hear that audio. Later, though. This situation is the perfect segue into my sermon!”
The Bishop nudged Sam’s shoulder toward the pulpit stairs. They dejectedly sighed and grabbed the suitcase before slinking back to their seat. 
“Well! What an interesting start to our morning, huh folks? The rest of today’s mass will explain precisely why fools like Thomas who try to defy Glorn bring nothing but shame and suffering to themselves.”
The Bishop placed a Glorble on the lectern and opened it up to commence his lecture. And Slornday mass continued on. 
🗲
Just as service wrapped up and attendees were filing out of the Glornch, Reverend Miriam returned to it. She entered through the secret back way which she had left from, out of sight from the leaving crowds. In her arms was an unconscious Thomas. 
When Thomas had gotten to the hangar, workers and guards barred him from taking any hovercycles or saucers since he didn’t have the proper clearance or authorization to do so. And unfortunately, “I’m wanted dead by the Glornitsts!” wasn’t valid enough.
Miriam had tracked Thomas to the hanger with her scrying. When she made it there herself, she found him patiently filling out a saucer request form in a quiet corner. Needless to say, it wasn’t a hard feat to knock him out by surprise and take him back. 
The priestess made her way into the depths of the Glornch, winding her way through dark twisting halls and stairwells to arrive at their very own secret dungeon. She gently laid Thomas on the floor of a cell and cuffed his hands. She stood over him and gave a small prayer to Mother’s Eye, asking her to forgive not Thomas, but Miriam herself, for aiding in the likely-death of yet another watchdog. 
“...But I’m sure you understand by now that it’s necessary,” the priestess concluded her prayer with. After that, she stepped out of the cell, closed and locked the metal bar door, and took one last look at the unconscious Thomas.
“...Dumbass,” Miriam muttered as she turned and made her way to Bishop Percival’s office to let him know their prey was caught.

(prev) When Mike “caught” them Shamura keeps their head down, but at Mike’s comment about the chocolate milk they perk back up. “Oh, uh, that was Bishop Percival I believe,” they say, recalling how he made their shattered glass ‘disappear’.
Mike sighed and pinched his forehead in annoyance. “Of course it was him…”
“Yeah,” Autumn clapped Mike on the shoulder, “you should go yell at him or something.”
He smacked their hand away. “Don’t distract me! I’m not letting you bring Shamura into the crypt.”
“C’mon! But it’s so cool! They’d probably love to see and hear about all of the neat things you’ve collected over the years! They won’t touch anything, right?” Autumn turned to Shamura.
