I've been making my way through Gideon The Ninth and so far my favorite characters are Harrow and Palamedes

this is harrow on the erebos. to me

[scarycatipillar]

people don’t dwell on how crux cared for harrow as much as they should. he was the only one left to attend to her when her parents died, aswell as being her caregiver before they passed.

these are a few examples of him feeling genuine familial affection towards her, because he was all she had. and harrow felt the same

even though crux is a detestable sour old man who swears fealty to the ninth at every juncture, he wasn’t committed to the tomb or to the house of the ninth, he was committed to the reverend daughter of the ninth; his daughter

[analoglesbian]

I think it's important to remember in this context, that Crux may love Harrow, may care deeply for Harrow more than anything, and may be the "only other person invested in her sanity." BUT he still lies to her about Ortus' death on the shuttle. And he's also seemingly killed Gideon multiple times (via hypothermia and a crossbow, though it doesn't seem to stick).

He knows that she's reliant on him for an outside, objective perspective on reality, and he still lies to her. Like all the forms we see love take in these books, it's a terrible kind of love. A love that is controlling, jealous and destructive. He's a lot like John to Harrow in that sense. They both see her as something of a daughter, but they both see "daughter" as a type of possession.

It is my birthday, so I decide to celebrate it by drawing Pyrrha wearing one of my favourite shirts <3

“Much later the princess came into my cell to talk to me and asked me what the hell I’d said to Camilla, in her words. There is no way in this universe or in the universe contained within the River that I will ever tell Coronabeth Tridentarius the finer points of anything that went on between Marta Dyas and myself, so I just said I’d tried to help her.

“She said, For God’s sake, Judith, you can barely help yourself.”

… more as yet unsent bc jodybeth owns me forever

You'd think "John Necromancer, the inventor of necromancy and also president of the universe" would be a made-up example of an absurd oc but no his name really is John he is the inventor of necromancy and also president of the universe

In light of the recent Muir event where she talked about 1) Lyctors losing their humanity by definition and 2) the centrality of memory to the series, I would like to draw everyone's attention to the fact that Paul has to ask Gideon where they've seen the Devils before, because they're struggling with memory.

[scarycatipillar]

just been reminded of the fact that harrow and gideon haven’t seen eachother in 2 years, which is the longest amount of time they’ve spent apart their whole lives

[insert-apt-title-here]

I don’t think I’ll ever get over how sad lyctorhood is bc what do you mean mock Jesus asks you to kill your best friend/lover/husband/sibling so you can be ultra powerful forever and help him kill terrifying beasts that probably only exist because mock Jesus got his power from killing the world
