NonMagic!AU in which the Scamander brothers live on a farm in a small village and Percival is a filmstar, shooting his newest movie in said village.

How about it’s a rare breeds farm? Newt would totally have a Mangalica family running wild. Percival could either be shooting and goes on a day off for a wander through some fields, not realising that the Suffolk Punch who inhabits the field likes to hide from people then charge at them in a mad dash of affection. He ends up running through the field shouting for help as the horse chases him and Theseus, who happens to be working in the neighbouring field, comes to his rescue. Percival ends up being chastised for worrying the poor horse who only wanted a cuddle.

Or Percival is doing a charity TV presenting stint for some conservation charity and Theseus just so happens to breed Longhorns and is invited to film with their animals.

Of course it would be in the summer, the brothers would be wandering around shirtless, pouring water over themselves and being rather distracting. Poor Percival has to retake a short segment umpteen times because Newt just so happens to be hefting hay bales around, flexing his muscles and throwing Percival some rather sultry looks. Until Theseus throws water over him to snap him out of it and the brothers end up rolling in the hay wrestling.

I’m only using Serious Songs™ for this playlist but I promised myself I would put one gag song in if I found the right one and I did. I’ve found it. The perfect song.

I was once the mystical man in all Lucis Russia
When the astrals royals betrayed me they made a mistake
My curse made each of them pay
But one little boy girl got a way
Little Noctis Anya beware, Izunia’s Rasputin’s awake!

:l

Catchy.

Ardyn playing the Sims would probably consist of him making characters of those he hates, trapping them into tiny rooms, and just watching them die.

And then when the Grim Reaper shows up, he can’t even get into the room to help them turn into a ghost or move onto heaven. They’re just there, dead, with GR just shrugging awkwardly.

In which Ardyn then attempts to trap GR in a box too.

So yeah. He really likes the Sims, I imagine. c:

thats a valid question

A communion wafer, according to the internet, is about .25g. Jesus was a healthy young man, who worked manual labor and walked everywhere. The average male in Biblical times was 5′1″ and about 110 pounds so call it 50kg or 50,000 grams. So 200,000 wafers to make up a whole Jesus. At one wafer a week that’s 3846 to eat a whole Jesus at weekly communion. If you went to Mass daily you could do it in under 550 years.

1000 communion wafers from Amazon costs $15, so acquiring a Jesus load would set you back about $3000

But that’s just the body. Jesus also bade his followers to drink his blood. How much of that Jesus communion wafer supply needs to be replaced with communion wine to account for his blood, and how much of that would need to be consumed to have drunk all his blood as well?

The human body contains roughly 5 liters of blood.

Communion wine costs about $66 for a case of 12 x 750 ml bottles (9000 ml).

So half a case is 4500 ml, or close enough if Jesus was on the small side which is reasonable given what we know of the times.

Thus, Jesus’ blood would be about 6 bottles of communion wine, costing $33.

How much of his weight was his blood, now? We can bring down the wafer count.

Osnap what an excellent question.

Water has a specific gravity of 1.0 and weighs 1kg/liter. Wine has a specific gravity if 1.5 thus weighs 1.5kg per liter.

4.5L of wine would weigh 6.75kg or about 15 pounds.

Reducing the wafer load by 6.75kg yields 43.25kg so call it 161,000 wafers or $2450 and change.
