#so is

This went viral on TikTok recently so why not share this here as well

SILKSONG SPOILERS AHEAD BY THE WAY... so me and @9-punk have came up with the oddest and yet still backed up hc/theory/whatever it is?

Anyway so [ignore the d3rlord3 and avery doodle in the one screenshot I don't feel like cropping, and sorry for my bad fucking handwriting oh lord]

These guys are my two blorbos that have been helping me COPE with the two towers that Wifies THREW AT ME.

Two priests for, you guessed it... The King in Yellow

Ans yes it's kind of a weird ass fucking concept but I have some joy and occasional whimsy let me self induldge

The Priest [Who's actually referred to as "Priest"/"The Priest"] is actually named Jackson, someone who went through something similar like d3rlord3 [witnessing the king] but instead things took a bit of a different turn; he instead pleaded to make an offer to TKiY to continue living without distraction, without having to run, and so in turn, he became a priest, and at that, eventually, a higher being in a way to make TKiY look more promising, appealing, good.

The last screenshot is of Priest's [Jackson's] only friend, the only person who ever remembered his name, Matthew, and ir Matt, most commonly referred to as "Other". As in "The Other Priest." He didn't see what Jackson saw, but he jumped in almost immediately, not wanting him to be alone. TKiY accepted the offer, another Priest meant another pawn. Eventually Matt also became a higher being, also being given the ability to fully see, for Matt had been born without a proper working right eye and it had to be removed [the one with the black box with the eye over it]

And yes, before you even ask, Jackson and Matt are indeed doomed yaoi, EXTREMELY doomed

Both Matt and Jackson have hip wings, I just haven't drawn a full body for Matt yet

If Matt Other doesn't smile, you're fucked, and never look Jackson Priest in the eyes if they're ever uncovered

Thanks for listening to my yap session these two have genuinely been on the brain for days have a stupid doodle

YYYOOUU CANT GET ME D3RLORD ILL KILL YOU FIRST 🫵

Where is it?

Just a fun thought experiment but, shouldn't there have been two Sukunas walking around in Heian? And one after Sukuna was sealed into his fingers? There should've been a curse version of Sukuna, an Imaginary God.

Not like curse Naoya where a human soul turns into a curse, but like the Smallpox Deity and frankly all the disaster curses. Because he was disaster on the humans, too; a calamity and beast so strong the people called him to bless their crops like a God. Everyone feared him and much more and that should've manifested into a second Sukuna; one formed by human negative emotions alone, a curse with no humanity in it.

I don't remember this being explicitly said in the story, but the most likely explanation for where this Imaginary God Sukuna ended up is... inside regular Sukuna. I've seen a few fics where it worked like that, where the fear and revulsion the people in Heian felt for Sukuna simply travelled as cursed energy to Sukuna hismelf, making him stronger.

Oh, but wouldn't the inhumanity of Curse Sukuna override the small bits of humanity real Sukuna still had? We know he hated the people who wronged him and that he rather let his hatred out onto the world than let it fester inside of him (a painfully human reaction), but then that externalized hatred turned into human fear, turned into a curse, returned to him and made him more curse than human with every passing day.

Sukuna didn't see himself as human. His last words were that he was a curse.

Born as a cursed child, rejected by society, turned into a curse inside and out. In body and soul. Until the cycle that ruled his life was finally broken at the end of Shinjuku.

Imaginary God Sukuna was bound to be created by Heian society the moment Sukuna was born. He only needed to be stronger than what life punished him with for the cycle of hatred, fear and cursed energy to never end. No wonder hatred just poured out of him for those people he saw as too weak to survive a life like that.

In the end, Yorozu was right. Only death would cure Sukuna from the hatred and fear that ruled his life which left him with barely anything other than loneliness.

Both Sukunas died as a curse but that left human Sukuna to maybe do things differently if he got that chance again.

(...but what if Sukuna wasn't killed by cursed energy? Wouldn't his soul be reborn as a curse into the world? This time really like Naoya?)
