something about fitz never being able to use chivalry’s sword for both fear of being recognized and it not being his best weapon blah blah blah

something about the axe he learnt from Burrich being synonymous with his identity as the bastard of Buckkeep and what he considered himself best at blah blah blah

blah blah something about when he couldn’t rely on either of these he always had chades teachings about being an assassin to default to blah

i cannot expand on this but it’s driving me crazy

I don't know if it's the pink dress that reminds me so strongly of fanart Mercymorn or just some guy holding a cigarette that makes me think of Augustine, but I can never look at this picture without seeing both of them.

hey why did everyone else get a normal name but mercymorn is named like some sort of warrior cat

#mercy was the name i’d give myself when i was daydreaming as a kid #mercymorn #the locked tomb #tlt

Act 5 of Harrow the Ninth really hammers home the point that John Gaius is that he needs to be the last one to Interact with a person.

We had clues earlier. The fact that instead of going back to thier family, the remains of heroes of the nine houses are supposed to be layed to rest in the mithreum shows that john gets them last. I mean, it's also a good way to prevent a culture of interhouse relic veneration. But really it's a power move that even if heros died they still belong to him. Not to the people they died for.

And Gideon even points out that going to serve the emperor is thier naritive version of written out if the story.

Because meeting the Emperor is last part of the story.

On a more personal level. All of his lyctors who died, either died trying to protect him from RBs or by his hands.

When he gets his hand on wakes spirit it looks like he's settling in for a long but of something, I was never quite sure what. And I suspect the only reason he was enraged by G1deon shooting Wake was that he viewed G1deon as an extention of his will. And he felt it was his own mistake for not telling G1deon to stop going ofter Wake. Like forgetting to tell your hunting dog to stand down. I imagin that the responce would have been differnt if he relized it was actually Pyrrah. But not getting what he wanted with Wake, primed him to be extra thorough when he killed Mercymorn.

Then when he finds out the child he never cared, didn't want, and who was an active liability to him, was already dead, he resurects her so that she can be with him.

Because she can't be dead till he has had a turn with her. He can't let Harrow and Ianthe have a past with his daughter if he never met her. So he keeps his lyctors but brings gideon back. Which echos with he did with his two favorite corpses, Titania and Ulysses, in nona the ninth. But kiriona is better because she has a personality and some soul left in her.

Johm can't controll anyone's beginning not even his own, and he doesnt reallt try, but he needs to to be last person to play with thier death.

some lyctor thoughts

-cytherea said she’d been thinking of infiltrating canaan house for 500 years

-mercy and august said that Dios Apate had been planned down to the ground for 500 years

-doctor sex, who lived 500 years ago, presumably wrote a letter stored in his study to someone attempting become a lyctor (EDIT: or, he stole one and stored it away… again, for what reason? what did it say?)

…what did John do 500 years ago??

Suggestion for something extremely fucked up to happen in Alecto:

Augustine held Mercy's soul when she died, and in order to survive in Hell and come back to finish the job, they've done a Paul but with double-lyctorhood. Mercystine comes out of the stoma as a single ferocious, psychologically fucktangular entity. The Saint of Divorce.

There is a reddit thread about how Mercy and Augustine smuggled out Jod's cum and the consensus is split on Mercymorn stole it from his balls while he was not looking vs. Augustine hid it in his ass. At least three comments just say "Mercymorn."

I love this fandom so much

Yknow when I was reading GtN I imagined Gideon's mom as this waifish anime mother, like those that have a disease that makes them lie in bed looking perfectly healthy and then die. I was not expecting her to be like if Princess Leia hatefucked Osama Bin Laden

THE EGGS YOU GAVE ME ALL DIED AND YOU LIED TO ME SO I DID THE IMPLANTATION MYSELF YOU SELF-SERVING ZOMBIE AND YOU STILL SENT HIM AFTER ME AND I WOULD HAVE HAD HIM IF I HADN’T BEEN COMPROMISED AND HE TOOK PITY ON ME! HE TOOK PITY ON ME! HE SAW ME AND HE TOOK PITY ON ME

AND FOR THAT I’LL MAKE YOU BOTH SUFFER UNTIL YOU NO LONGER UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THAT GODDAMNED WORD

HIM I’LL KILL QUICK BECAUSE SHE ASKED ME TO AND BECAUSE THAT MUCH HE HONESTLY DESERVES BUT YOU TWO MUMMIFIED WIZARD SHITS I WILL BURN AND BURN AND BURN AND BURN UNTIL THERE IS NO TRACE OF YOU LEFT IN THE SHADOW OF MY LONG-LOST NATAL SUN.

WILL REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME YOU KISSED ME—YOU APOLOGISED—YOU SAID, I AM SORRY, DESTROY ME AS I AM, BUT I WANT TO KISS YOU BEFORE I AM KILLED, AND I SAID TO YOU WHY, AND YOU SAID, BECAUSE I HAVE ONLY ONCE MET SOMEONE SO UTTERLY WILLING TO BURN FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED IN, AND I LOVED HIM ON SIGHT, AND THE FIRST TIME I DIED I ASKED OF HIM WHAT I NOW ASK OF YOU

I KISSED YOU AND LATER I WOULD KISS HIM TOO BEFORE I UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU WERE, AND ALL THREE OF US LIVED TO REGRET IT—BUT WHEN I AM IN HEAVEN I WILL REMEMBER YOUR MOUTH, AND WHEN YOU ROAST DOWN IN HELL I THINK YOU WILL REMEMBER MINE

THE ONLY THING OUR CIVILIZATION CAN EVER LEARN FROM YOURS IS THAT WHEN OUR BACKS ARE TO THE WALL AND OUR TOWERS ARE FALLING ALL AROUND US AND WE ARE WATCHING OURSELVES BURN

WE RARELY BECOME HEROES.

i know folks are gonna call me a pedo for this one, but i grew up seeing my mom and grandma naked. they had health issues and at times needed care and help showering. and i truly think more kids need to be shown the nonsexual reality of naked women at a young age. there is nothing sexual about my grandmothers breasts, they were simply body parts. more women die of heart attacks because people are too afraid of breasts to do real chest compressions, because they are scared to touch their breasts. the sexualization of our bodies literally kills us. i need people to be more normal about naked bodies and i'm 100% serious.

random PSA, I know a lot of people use duckduckgo as a Google alternative search engine, but it always kind of annoyed me when I was using it because it felt like No Name Brand Google

I have switched to using Startpage.com and vastly prefer it. for one thing, instead of displaying an "AI summary" at the top of the search results (unless you turn it off, yes I know), it displays the first paragraph of the Wikipedia article, with link, whenever it finds one that's relevant.

also a waaayyyyy better sense of design than duckduckgo

also private, European based, least annoying search I've used lately (RIP old "don't be evil" Google)

Keeping a list of Google alternatives just in case…

Search Engines

Infinity Search is an alternative search engine with a special focus on privacy

DuckDuckGo is a popular search engine for those who value their privacy and are put off by the thought of their every query being tracked and logged. Uses bangs, ![site] for in-page search (sells your data to microsoft and draws from fucking bing)

WolframAlpha is a privately owned search engine that allows you to “compute expert-level answers using Wolfram’s breakthrough algorithms, knowledgebase, and AI technology.” A data search engine.

Boardreader is a search engine for forums and message boards. It allows you to search forums and then filter down results by date and language.

Based in France, Qwant is a privacy-based search engine that won’t record your searches or use your personal details for advertising. Uses “&” as a bang search.

Another privacy-based search engine is Search Encrypt, which uses local encryption to ensure that users’ identifiable information cannot be tracked. Metasearch across multiple engines.

Offering unbiased results from several sources, SearX is a metasearch engine that aims to present a free, decentralized view of the internet. Can be self-hosted.

Gibiru’s tagline is “Unfiltered private search” and that’s exactly what it offers. Requires AnonymoX Firefox add-on for privacy.

Disconnect allows you to conduct anonymous searches through a search engine of your choice.

Swisscows provides fully encrypted searches to protect your privacy and security. Built-in violence/porn filter cannot be overridden.

MetaGer offers “Privacy Protected Search & Find” through its anonymised search. A plugin will allow it to be made a default.

https://search.marginalia.nu/ an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed. Use old-school searching rather than query-based for the best results.

https://www.mojeek.com/

https://wiby.me/ - It’s goal is to index as many personalized websites as possible, and NOT commercial sites.

https://4get.ca/ it works a lot like SearX, but honestly better. It doesn’t have its own index, but pulls from many others. I think it’s the best for research, since it allows you to search for answers from different indexes, is easy to configure, add free, and avoids censorship as much as it can.

There's always a moment of intense cultural whiplash whenever I realize I'm talking to someone who thinks "legal" and "illegal" are meaningful categories and ascribes innate goodness to following the law. It's like meeting a space alien.
