Nona being canonically pretty is funny to me because that means HARROW is canonically pretty, and this fact has been heretofore avoided for about 1,000 pages owing to Harrow's unwavering commitment to existing, at all times, as a drowned wet rat scrabbling against the slick shore rock, heaving out sea water and blood and insisting against every offered hand because no, she's GOT this on her own, before vomiting a few mollusks and floating belly up. It took 2 lobotomies to fix this.

Still feeling like people overlooked the implications of Harrows baptism in the pool scene...l mean she confesses her sins (as one does before taking on the sacrament) to lesbian Jesus and Gideon forgives her and submerges them both in salt water... freeing her from her original sin (200 dead kids and all)

reasons i don't respect campal antis

imagine thinking that the locked tomb is interesting without acknowledging all the incest. couldn't be me

For con season this year I did a series of prints in a style I call "Duos" with two characters surrounded by a bunch of objects from whatever they're from.

Here's the Locked Tomb ones...it took a long time to come up with the objects please appreciate them...

PRINTS

as i've recently become mildly obsessed with paintings of st sebastian, i'm starting to gather that the convoluted body horror eroticism in TLT isn't as novel as it's felt to me, a filthy heathen, but simply the standard catholic way of being horny and gay

The Titania&Ulysses and Gideon parallels are honestly making me so insane. With U- and T- John claims to see them as his children. Then he puppeteers them, drags them around like a favorite toy, plays house with their corpses as dolls, he even names one of them after his childhood dog??? Sir, this is not even near to how one treats children, dear God, you got lost in the necro-sauce—

Then this man lives for ten thousand years and now he has Gideon and he brings her into the world the second time, he constructs her, he renames her and proceeds to play mother-daughter with a new miserable corpse. This man just doesn’t learn, does he. But oh well, this time the corpse is a willing one, isn’t that great! Because Gideon got so tangled up in the desperate desire to be a tool, a weapon, a sword hand, a cavalier. Her “mother” crafted her to be a weapon, a bomb, but didn’t get to use her. Harrow refused to use her and if broke Gideon’s heart. But oh-so-luckily, now she has a father who is willing to use her and her sword, to use her as his sword. Surely this means he loves her. And the worst thing is that I think John truly thinks that is how you love your child.

What can I say, such a wonderful family, they are totally normal and well and definitely aren’t enabling the worst patterns of each other *eye twitching, ripping my hair out, chain smoking*

favorite character from any media BUT it has to be a woman. in the tags now go (pls talk to me about your favorite fictional women pls pls pls pls)

[lockedtombbrainworms]

I maintain that Cytherea the First got more than just Loveday Heptane's skill with the sword. The Seventh Saint was a pillow princess before she ascended to lyctorhood, but she also got her cav's strap skills during her ascension. It's symbolic.

I had a really vivid dream last night that tamsyn muir published a new short story, and in that story none of the characters were referred to by their actual names bc it was kind artsy and abstract, but the character that everyone was pretty sure was gideon nav was referred to exclusively as iphigenia.

I have been informed by my classics major gf that the implications of such a thing are extremely Fucked

Wake up babe a new way to interpret the Alecto the Ninth wedding spoiler just dropped

[faithfulpuppy]

She's already been sacrificed at her own wedding, but it was her who made the sacrifice. Which is a really cool subversion actually.
