what i thought polytheism was: i light a candle and set out an offering. i pray and, while i don’t get any concrete answers, i have a sense of peace and tranquility. sometimes i make contact and receive good advice in exchange for said offering. also im super connected to nature or something

what it actually is: Set bodyslams me out of nowhere while im trying to read, saying “fuck dude you will not BELIEVE the day that i have had -hey where’s my food? anyway why haven’t you asked that girl out yet, about time you grew a pair isn’t it”

What I thought polytheism was: I become inherently more Moral and Good because reasons. I would worship gods happily and without reservation. I’d go outside more to commune with nature.

What it actually is: A giant Bird Dad calls me out on my mistakes. Being a good person is actually really hard. Gods keep inviting themselves in and I’m running out of shelf space.

What I thought polytheism was: I sit down at the shrine and perform complicated rituals and prayers, Sekhmet helps me out sometimes.

What it actually is: I give Sekhmet some sour patch kids every time I go and buy candy, She leaves me unintelligible signs that might be asking for something or might just be saying thanks.
