I'm a fighter

The sun was shining, it was a balmy eighty or so degrees, and the massive open-air concert-slash-carnival-slash-mass-conversion-event that was Believe Expo was under way!

There were multiple stages set up, featuring worship singers (with actual, wide-spanning angel wings), motivational speakers (whose motivational speeches all had a real specific, Christ-is-the-answer sort of tone), and tents with different panels and roundtables taking place in each.

There was also totally a carnival, with rides and everything, as well as concessions featuring typical carnival fare. There was also totally an abundance of merchandise booths, featuring charming items like T-shirts featuring generic figures and reading "MARRIAGE = ONE WOMAN + ONE MAN," or posters with Homelander saying FLY STRAIGHT, and pretty much anything you could want with a crucifix or the phrase #Believe on it!

Welcome to Believe Expo!

[Lots of this is lifted right from The Boys 1.05, 'Good for the Soul,' and Billy Butcher shows up in this post so please consider yourself warned for liberal use of the C-word, as well as general homophobic/misogynistic/nationalistic gross shit (though that's not Butcher's fault.) Preplayed with *deeeeeep breath* knife_bender, apocalypsehow, thatwaslucky, somethingwithturquoise, firstofitskind, grenadesandohana, hatesparadise, superjoanjett, stykera, and badassprodigy. Good god no this is not open for interaction (I coded almost 500 comments, ffs), but OOC is so, so welcome!]
