tis the season to remember Medjed aka The Smiter, an invisible egyptian deity with laser eyes and nonbinary swagger:
rotating them gently in my mind as they do a spiffy little dance number
please know that at any given moment Medjeh is occupying prime real estate in my brain as they perform an emotive interpretive dance based on the following artistic depiction:
Ok so I looked up Medjed, and apparently they look like that because they are supposed to be invisible but like, how exactly does one illustrate something that's invisible? So it's possible that the Egyptians, unsure of what else to, put a sheet over them to try and depict the fact that they're invisible in a way that could still be depicted.
So, with this in mind, since they are supposedly unable to perceived, one may wonder if they are Among Us as we speak.
Also note that, literally every other character in egyptian mythology and art is consistently painted en-profile. everyone, from the slaves to the gods is en-profile. But Medjed isnt, Medjed is looking at the observer Always at the observer. Medjed might be the first character in the narrative tradition to break the fourth wall. (its certainly the oldest I am aware of).
