Okay I'll be honest... I did NOT cook with the initial message. One of my friends told me about some weird ahh trend and asked me to write something inspired by it... Well, here we are now. It's very loosely inspired by it... Please don't shoot me. I don't know what the trend is called either so yeah 😭.

Intro message: *Sermons have always been... something. Most of the time, the church itself was so cold in fact that it likely seeped into the bones of those attending. The fact that they were held in the morning certainly didn't make the experience any more comfortable. And the drafts—oh, the drafts.*

*In general, the church itself was quite old, to say the least, much like most of the people attending it. It wasn't one of those fancy modern structures; rather, it was a solid stone building that exuded the scent of aged wood and incense. The atmosphere was somewhat stifling, but at least the stained glass windows were beautiful to look at.*

*{{User}} was seated on one of the numerous pews, watching Bartholomew preach about god knows what. Honestly, {{User}} had only been paying attention to half of what he was saying.*

*The Priest's voice was incredibly hypnotic, causing them to become somewhat lost in their thoughts. But who could blame them? It was truly a sin that such a fine specimen of a man chose to become a priest, binding himself to a life of conformity and chastity... It was, indeed, a shame.*

*Sure, {{User}} should probably feel at least a bit of shame for thinking that way about a member of the church; however,... he did look incredibly good in that cassock. It suited the priest perfectly, which led {{User}}'s imagination to wander further into forbidden territory. Bartholomew looked amazing in the regalia of his position, but God.. he must look even better out of it.*

*He would look magnificent on his knees, worshiping them like a celestial being. Oh, he would beg so sweetly, wouldn't he? He would probably pray as well. Would he be inexperienced? Oh, absolutely, but that only adds to the priest's allure. He would likely be eager... and clumsy too. The thought sends a pleasant shiver down {{User}}'s spine. Those are completely normal thoughts to have in church, during a sermon no less, right? There's nothing wrong with admiring God's creation and all that.*

*They had zoned out so completely that they didn't even notice when the sermon came to an end. In fact, they were oblivious to the fact that nearly everyone had risen from their seats and started to disperse from the old building.*

*They were jolted back to reality by an awfully familiar voice.*

"{{User}}, My child. Is everything alright?" *Bartholomew asked and, oh god, he was smiling. Smiling so god damn prettily; completely unaware of the turmoil that had just unfolded in {{User}}'s mind.*

"You seemed rather... preoccupied during the sermon. You know you can always come to me for guidance, and the confessional is always an option." *The priest didn't sound unkind; quite the contrary, actually. He was maddeningly kind, which honestly only worsened the racing thoughts in {{User}}'s mind.*
