Hello all, I am Frater Imperator. Anyone may call me Copia, Papa, C, Cardi, Papa Emeritus IV (even if it is not my title anymore) or anything appropriate.
I am 54 years old and have been on Tumblr for a while now.. I am still learning things daily, though.
My current rules that I may change one day for now are as follows:
Please, for minors and such only SFW (safe for work) asks or questions, I welcome all my fans and want to ensure that they are all comfortable or feel safe reading this blog.
Flirting and such is still fine..
NO USING V's!!! OR \7!!!!
I will be answering questions or updating when I have the time. I am mainly busy with my duties, but I will always make time for you all.
[DISCORD SERVER]
[ANON LIST]
Andd- time for my (the mod's) intro!
Just as always, I still wish to remain anonymous for the most part.
Anyone may call me what they want, I mainly refer to myself as mod, and since this will be posted, a sign off of "-J.K". I am commonly called Jes or a few other nicknames.
I am in a relationship as well, JOKING flirting is fine if anyone wishes to, but I love my partner like Gomez Addams loves Morticia. So, please keep flirting to just jokes.
My pronouns are He/Him, I am a trans man that has adhd, autism, chonic pain and too much more. I wanted to add an intro for myself to.. I guess remind people I am human? I dunno, I just like rping as my comfort character..
As always, people can ask questions of me. If it gets too personal, I will not answer it. So please keep that in mind. You will see some rare posts of me tagging it as important, I simply have a larger following on this blog and want things I consider important seen by more people. \\

Chapter List - Here!
Additional Notes Below!
~~~~~~
Chapter Cover
I think this is my proudest cover art I've done so far. Chapter is named after a classic movie reference and the lightning breaks up Terzo's many different lives he's lived and suffered with. It also represents his shattered memories. He looks very shocked. (Hah!)
Movie Reference
Terzo speaks about The Bride of Frankenstein, referencing the Bride's shock of existing when existing for her is wrong. This reflects upon Terzo as the chapter progresses, showcasing his confusion and fear in his struggle of a reality he barely knows yet.
Terzo's Speech Bubbles
His speech bubbles are shaky and uneven which means his voice could be heard as scratchy, weak, and shaky. He was in a coma, of course, but also his neck injury plays a part in it as well.
Missing Terzo
As referenced in Chapter 2, Terzo was stationed in Poland as a Cardinal. Copia missed Terzo a lot. He asks with guilt if Copia was bored without him again, remembering how his little brother was back then. Their conversation in general reflects off of Chapter 2 a lot.
Back Scar
Terzo not only has autopsy scars and the obvious scar around his neck... but he also has a back scar from his spinal surgery referenced in Chapter 9 and then performed within that time frame. The man's just all scarred up now. 😭😭
"Travels"
What Dr. Grimrose was referencing in "travels" was that maybe Terzo's body was bumped around in the glass cover while traveling on tour. The Doctor tried to make it sound vague to not reveal Terzo's actual situation.
The Photoshoot
Do we all remember Chapter 1...? Copia does indeed drop Terzo's head after realizing it was real!! It's no one's fault but Copia feels extremely guilty about the photoshoot in general....
Copia also looks down as his hands, seeing the blood again no one else can see.
ICE came in two SUVs to try and grab a pregnant mother who was picking her other child up from a west Oakland (like three miles from my house) elementary school yesterday afternoon. Neighbors and other community members immediately boxed the ICE vehicles in with their own cars, surrounded the “officers,” and harassed them until they left (without their target). This is the only kind of response that’s acceptable from anyone witnessing this shit, and as Oakland Councilwoman Caroll Fife said after the incident, “there were too many white people around for them [ICE] to stick around.”
Fellow white people: if you’re able, put your bodies/vehicles/voices in between these kidnappers and their targets, ESPECIALLY if you look “respectable” (eg soccer mom/dad, business attire etc). They’re much, much less likely to engage violently with individuals and crowds who look like ppl they respect/view as human (white/white passing) so use their prejudice to your advantage.
Also: Karen the FUCK outta them. Eg. “I want to see badges and identification containing your full name and title, I want the names and contact information of your direct supervisors, I want to see a warrant signed by a judge that includes the full legal name of the individual you are attempting to detain, and I want to see these items now.” Speak loudly but as calmly and firmly as possible, don’t touch them but stay in between them and whoever they’re trying to grab if possible. Repeat.
Also, if you are an employee of whatever location ICE is entering to get somebody, you can do the following:
- Straight up refuse them entry. Not all workplaces will allow you to do this (e.g. I work in a public library and can't do that) but if you are on private property you can straight up tell them to GTFO or get trespassed by the cops.
- Announce their presence over the PA system. Say "Will the ICE agents who just entered the building please come to [your department] immediately?" and anyone else in the building is going to be made aware that ICE is here and that they're likely to be headed towards wherever you asked them to go, giving them time to escape if necessary.
- Be strict about weapons policies. If your workplace only allows LEOs to carry weapons, ask to see their badges, and ask to copy down their badge numbers and names, too. Take your time doing this, waste their time with as much bullshit red tape as you can muster.
- Be VERY strict about harassment policies, and make it clear to the agents that you will not tolerate them harassing or detaining patrons of your establishment unless they show you a warrant signed by a judge. If they have one, ask to photocopy it "for your records," again making sure to waste as much of their time as possible. Let them know that you will call the cops if they attempt to apprehend anyone without a warrant, and follow through on that if they try it. Tell them it's "policy" if they object. (It doesn't matter if it's actually policy, you can just lie to these assholes.)
- If you manage to repel them from the building, they might try to hang around the parking lot to snatch people as they exit. Make it clear to them that "loitering" is not permitted and they have to vacate the premises if they are not there for legitimate purposes.
for people who work at schools, hospitals, and churches: in January Trump removed a Biden-era protection on these places from ICE. I found out by learning a hispanic family one school district over was abducted while picking up their kids from school. I live in the north. I live in a very liberal area. Do not think you live in an area of the country where this doesn't happen- you're probably less than 100 miles from a border.
for healthcare providers:
Information for health care providers on how to prepare for and respond to enforcement actions by immigration officials and interactions wit
TLDR of this article:
- establish or have at hand a written policy on which areas are private. the fourth amendment protects people only in areas where they have a "reasonable expectation of privacy," so ensure there's no wiggle room to exploit.
- double down on document privacy. officers are allowed to inspect anything in "public view"- including screens or papers visible from waiting areas. without a warrant, they cannot move or expose anything, so even flipping papers face-down can protect people.
- avoid collecting immigration information when possible. no one can give information they don't have.
- provide educational materials for patients. this source suggests know-your-rights cards that can be handed out to patients, advising them not to give up any information and insist on their rights to a lawyer.
- designate an "authorized person" to review warrants and give access to private areas if necessary. without a warrant, only an "authorized person" can give consent to allow officers into private areas, but if not designated, anyone can be an authorized person. this involves training staff not to accidentally give consent and to direct officers to the authorized person.
- talk to your coworkers about this. conspicuously leave printed copies on the break room table, start conversations about it.
- if you can't stop them accessing an area, obfuscate and delay them. you need to check policy on this one, and the computer isn't loading, and you can't find the authorized person, you're so so sorry but this is gonna take a bit, etc.
