[monk-brother-basil]

Greetings! I am Brother Basil, and I reside in Farnham Monastery. My pronouns are he/him. When I am not praying, I like to sing and study all of God’s creatures. I am also an avid reader and love to engage with early works on the Lord.

Do Not Interact: heretics, tax collectors, those who believe Jude is the best book of the Bible (it is not); unrepentant blasphemers, adulterers, sorcerers, proshippers, simoniacs, and perjurers. Those seeking to mend their ways are always welcome in the arms of the Church.

Please Interact: pilgrims, scholars, penitents, friends of St. Dorothy, alms-seekers, the humble, the meek, and anyone else come in the name of the Lord

it is snowy at the monastery so we have made a snowmonk and even put a spare habit on him

I have arrived at Farnham Monastary and not one Brother has yet to question the buzzing in the baskets I carry... is this normal here? yet they have had no beekeeper before?? well, this is fine and I'm sure none shall poke the skeps full of bees with a stick :) all the brothers and sisters here will be perfectly respectful of the bees :)

[monk-brother-basil]

Hello to you and all your little friends! You are all very welcome. I am delighted to see so many bees arrive at the monastery.

prithee, what doth "kinktober" mean? 'tis a phrase passed quickly around the abbey and i mean to understand it!

[monk-brother-basil]

I believe it is a term used for an October challenge dedicated to bettering one's life in small ways (as in 'working out the kinks'). This is what the young monks told me when I asked, anyways.

theres too many princesses and maids and knights and whatever. can some of you develop a thatching fetish or something my roof is collapsing

[monk-brother-basil]

Queercode your characters by giving them a tonsure.

[monk-brother-basil]

Whenever I read the heathenous writings of the Greeks or Romans, I frown most solemnly so God knows I do not approve.

[monk-brother-basil]

Though I shall never wed, I do regularly find myself in deep spiritual friendships with other monks. Despite our piety, these can be as dramatic as any union between man and wife. Myself and a brother I shall not name are as bitter as any divorcees.

[brotherhumphrey]

got some of the monks together to make a monastery seesaw outside; the prior and abbot saw us and told us off, but later i walked past and saw them sitting on either end going up and down

[monk-brother-basil]

You may say that Christ was the first to engage in "doomed yaoi." In this, we emulate him.

[monk-brother-basil]

The monastic tradition thrives in England. I think it shall last forever.

[monk-brother-basil]

While many insects are Godless, bees are not. Who do they dance for if not the Lord?

[sister-lucille]

snails are not Godless either, they dance for the lord just very, very slowly

[monk-brother-basil]

I am going to tonsure all of the caterpillars in the garden so they grow into pious butterflies.
