I’m just gonna make this a series of random shit that happens in the codex
Are we supposed to slide past the Nanahuatzin part-
Yaotl you did what
Oh yeah there’s also this bit
“Sahagún's passage describing the Toxcatl impersonator reads like the rapt portrayal of a man whose beauty approximated that of the ideal unmarried Aztec woman”
You can technically make Tezcatlipoca wear a maid dress and it would (kinda) work
"Although Sahagún never witnessed the Toxcatl rite, he described it at length in his encyclopedic Florentine Codex, in which he included his Aztec informants’ vivid description of the ideal victim’s physical appearance...I will argue not only that the young Aztec impersonator was chosen for his androgynous appearance but also that, during the events leading up to the moment of his death, his gender—but not his sex—was symbolically feminized to the point where he transcended the male-female binary altogether. The impersonator’s increasingly ambiguous gender, in other words, served as a visual sign of his association with, and ultimate transformation into, the god himself
D-does this mean Tezcatlipoca nonbinary??????
Uhhhhhhh 7 :3
Ask about my characters
FIREEEEE (team Tezcatlipoca for the win tho /j)
Quetzalcoatl, aka the coolest Aztec deity there is🔥 this is based off a statue I got from Mexico
Hey…. I wonder who that artist is /silly
Xochiquetzal and Xochipilli be upon ye
Tyyyy :DDDD
they look great!!!
We add another petroglyph drawing, this one is from La Guaira 👀
I'm still not sure about the thing on his head... Should it be more human? More a deity and floating? Of all the ideas I had, the fourth one liked me most but honestly I accept suggestions
I would like to add more elements of the place where it was found (Closer to the sea) so we will see what I can do. I hope you like! 🤗
The Tlaloques fuck with their boss’s son/replacement older brother
Also here’s some stills
Tezcatlipoca: Hey Tlaloc, Xochiquetzal is my comfort character so I need you to divorce her so I can marry her.
Tlaloc: What, no.
Xochiquetzal: I'm his comfort character, you have to. Also we're unleashing a social media mob on you.
*Tlaloc wakes up in a cold sweat in Tlalocan*
Tlaloc: Right, it was just a dream. I'm going to go cause a drought to cope.
I looked it up because I couldn’t remember if I knew off the top of my head

Why is safe search on
- Us being based on an "inky cap" mushroom
- Shrike being a squid, an animal known for producing ink
- "Ink Stations"
- Agent K being pure black, possibly named after the K in CMYK
So many references to ink! But surely this is a worldbuilding element not related to the five sun theory whatsoever! It's not like there's an Aztec god of ink or something
