Pratchett was onto something with the Small Gods.
Gods of the minutiae of experience and function. Gods and goddesses of the patter of rain but specifically a gentle rain as it strikes a hollowed and petrified log lost to time and separated from humanity by a vast gulf of distance.
A goddess of the moment you realize that thing you shoulda said to Tom when they razzed you about your new hat five hours ago.
A god that governs the transition of soft mud to dry, cracked clay.
A goddess whose domain is precisely the first budding of a transitioning girl's nipples and a god who is in charge of solely nurturing a trans man's very first serious patch of facial hair.
Numerous psychopomps that escort the souls of wayward bugs that became trapped in your porch light fixture.
And one for that specific and precise feeling of disgust as you notice for the first time your friend that you love dearly is a mouth-slightly-open chewer.
