This dude game me, a homosexual, a flower-aesthetic fey and told me to “go nuts” and do whatever I want with it

Hey you know how I said I was going to make a workbook on the kind of bullshit you need to do when someone you love dies? I actually did that.

HERE IS THE VERSION WITH LOTS OF SWEARING AT THE USELESS, SHITTY SITUATION YOU’RE IN.

HERE IS THE VERSION WITH A FAIR AMOUNT OF BLACK HUMOR BUT NO CURSEWORDS.

Featuring Helpful Sections such as:

So you suddenly have to become some sort of hacker or some shit

This is an eighteen page book that you can print out, download, share, and give away; it is meant to be used to collect information about funeral planning and account management after a death OR you can use it BEFORE you die and give people information so they’re not stuck playing Nancy Fucking Drew while trying to keep seventeen cousins who crawled out of the woodwork from gutting each other in front of the fucking casket as they argue about who’s inheriting grandma’s favorite dentures.

It’s not exactly cheerful and it’s full of things that are probably going to feel really fucking raw if you’re processing a fresh death.

I’m sorry! I love you! Death is shitty! I’m trying to laugh about it a little and I hope you can laugh a little too because otherwise we’re all just going to cry together.

Good luck!

Husk being the first to join them broke me.

This is the face of a man who's felt the sting of someone he loves leave him before and knows what's coming, but fuck if it doesn't hurt every time.

No one forced Caleb to do what he did, to murder, torture, or make a man to kill himself. No one HAD to force him, all they had to do was reminded him that he was serving the Empire. He made the choices himself, and it clearly wasn’t just nationalism that caused him to become a Volstrucker, but it is the constant throughout his decision making. Thats what Ikithon reminds him of, that’s what he, Wulf, and Astrid remind each other, and thats how he was convinced to kill his partners.

And the most important thing the show establishes is that this propaganda didn’t start with Ikithon. Empire above all is what Caleb’s parents taught him. That’s what his mother invoked to convince his father to let him go to the academy. Caleb was already primed for a life of murder because he was raised Empire nationalism, Ikithon didn’t even have to try to indoctrinate him, the work had already been done.
