Wednesday: I abhor the very concept of human touch. Warmth is an unnecessary distraction. Every day that I go without it is another victory over the human condition.

Enid: Uh huh. Whatever you say, babe.

Wednesday: Do you doubt me? I’ve never spoken a more sincere truth. The desire for touch is a mortal failing—

Enid: *reaches out and cups Wednesday’s cheek*

Wednesday: *breathless whine as she trembles needfully against that gentle touch* Mi corazón, mi sol, mi amor, mi—

Enid: *casually withdraws her hand*

Wednesday: —that I have long since conquered.

Enid: *impishly* If you say so~

Wednesday: …why are you smiling like that?

Enid/Wednesday: 🥰🤨❓

Things I hope Tommy Arnold's announcement/merch drop will be:

- a life size cardboard cut out of Gideon Nav

- one of those grow-a-dinosaur capsules that dissolves in water except it's grow-an-Alecto

- finger puppets of Jod and the Lyctors

- a crank up Jack-in-the-box but it's a Babs-in-a-coffin

- two packs of cigarettes and a purple tie

- a mini Kiriona Gaia pocket Jesus

- real genuine can of harrow marrow soup that sets off Geiger counters

- a Polly pocket compact replica of Canaan House

- Front Line Titties of the Ninth pinup calender

"there were major systemic problems in that era of the past!"

"yes!"

"so nobody in an oppressed group was ever happy!"

"no, some of them were sometimes"

"oh so the oppression wasn't real then!"

"no, it very much was and needed to change"

"but...if they were happy..."

"humans find ways to be happy in even bleak circumstances. it's kind of a defining trait of humanity. they had to live their lives in the world as it was, even while fighting to change it, so. yeah. they made happiness for themselves the way everyone does, even now with the problems we have today. there were good things in their world, too, alongside the bad. even some things we could learn from now, though definitely not their macro-level social attitudes!"

"...ohhh you're a shill for conservative values and you wish you lived back then! got it!"

"let's go over this again"

Can we talk about how fucking insane Nona the Ninth must've been from Gideon's perspective?

Like, she spent all of the previous book trapped in a walled off portion of Harrow's subconscious and thinking that Harrow hated her bc she refused to properly eat her soul. Then in the last like thirty minutes of the book harrow's soul goes on holiday and Gideon's now in her body fighting fucked up bug things and she still thinks Harrow hates her but also she's going to do her best to keep Harrow's body safe but definitely not because she cares about Harrow, just because she's her cavalier and that's what she's meant to do.

Then offscreen she got resurrected by god—kinda sorta we'll find out I guess, pyrrah seems to know what's up but is not sharing with the class—who she learned five minutes ago is her dad and was going around doing her tower prince thing with ianthe tridentarius who I'm sure she had a very normal and not at all weird relationship with. Idk maybe they bonded over wanting to fuck Harrow (not that Gideon would ever admit that of course).

Then while Gideon's being all corpse-y in her off time, who does she see but Harrowhark fucking Nonagesimus. Who immediately kisses her. Gideon then learns that said body that she definitely has only very platonic feelings about, antagonistic feelings even, is being piloted by an autistic six month old. Whose one really good skill is reading people and who kissed her because the second Nona walked into the room she read her like a fucking book and saw that Gideon really wanted to kiss Harrow('s body).

Gideon proceeds to be very normal about desperately needing to know where Harrow actually is. Not because she's in love with Harrow obviously, that would be crazy, she needs to know so that she can, uh, point and laugh at whatever predicament Harrow's in, yeah that's it. Only to learn that Nona doesn't fucking know.

Then, at the end of the book, Gideon learns that Nona is actually the corpse that Harrow's had a crush on since she was a kid. And also said corpse wakes up and kisses/bites Harrow right in front of her.
