Keeper of Secrets on the New Normal.

I love this fucking game. It goes so well for me at first. Then goes horribly fucking wrong.

Only if the religion in question is the cult of Slaanesh.

He'll save with mighty hand,
ev'ry man,
ev'ry woman,
ev'ry child with a mighty FLASH!

Ditto for "Felicia Day".
