So don't fear the eyes of the dark lord

I'm currently re-reading Scintilla Cascade arc for editing purposes, and I think that a few years after the end of the story, August is finally able to start unpacking his religious trauma surrounding Chyrian Noxaicism. And at this point he and Orimund are very secure in their relationship, they tell each other everything, trust each other and allow themselves to be genuinely vulnerable together, all that good stuff. So August finally feels ready to kind of shyly ask if Orimund would mind terribly if they did some kink stuff surrounding this religion to help August cope, No Worries If Not, etc. And it's only quite milquetoast roleplay stuff (to begin with - this is still a very fraught area for August that he has only now got to dealing with), but he's terrified that it's going to make things Weird for Orimund.

Meanwhile, Orimund, who does not really have hangups about this particular thing at all is like. RIGHT. Yes, okay, this is a Task For Me. A research task that will help my love, I am good at those, this is the best day ever!

And so Orimund goes away and researches. He reads the Chyriad all the way through several times, as well as Chyrian Noxaic religious verse and other texts and all about the history of the religion and its place in the culture of Scintilla Cascade, and a biography of Carissaea Chyros, and about her political views (he's like "waow! this is problematic!"), and finally he goes back to August like. right. I have Read Up On This. What do you want to do, I'm ready for anything. I hope it's historically and philosophically accurate enough for you? I could do more reading if you want, to increase the authenticity?
