fuck yeah, locked tomb!

this blog is a content aggregation blog for The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir. it runs primarily on queue, and does not make personal, original, or non-fandom posts. this blog reblogs all Locked Tomb content and is not curated by any particular ruleset.

this blog tags by character first name and by ship. characters who use multiple names are tagged by the name associated with the depiction of the character used; if it’s unclear, it’s tagged by best guess.

ships are only tagged if there is a current commonly-used ship name for that ship. if you would like a ship tag to be used on this blog, feel free to make us aware of it through our askbox.

this blog is not spoiler-free as of 10/15/2022. spoilers will be avoided for approximately one month after the release date of any particular Locked Tomb official content. this does not include content available in official free previews like those released by Amazon for promotional purposes.

“Say my shuttle exploded. I died, and it was such a shame. Give me a break, Crux, I’m begging you here—I’ll trade you a skin mag. Frontline Titties of the Fifth.” This rendered the marshal momentarily too aghast to respond. “Okay, okay. I take it back. Frontline Titties isn’t a real publication.”

I spent the better part of a day painting this and looking at a lot of smutty pulp covers for palette and typography purposes (and for science.)

"Her Most Serene Highness, Crown Prince Kiriona Gaia, heir to the First House, the Emporer's Only Daughter"

Look, I see an imperial space throne and I'm gonna have this little moment, whether I'm in the right outfit or not. I do want to make the prince outfit though! I'll have to get that done before con next year! Although I'm sure Alecto will rock my whole universe AGAIN before that 🙃

“Thank you?” she said. “Harrow, you loved that.”

I’m so normal about them. I’m so regular. My brain chemestry is not forever changed because of them at all.

I’ve also made some icons for you and you skull-faced fruitcake

[Image description: A drawing of Harrow and Ianthe from The Locked Tomb. Ianthe smiles wickedly, grabbing Harrow’s face with her gold bone hand. Harrow’s eyes are half lidded, looking at Ianthe with tiredness or perhaps desire. They both seem to be speaking. There are close ups of each of their faces. The background is red and it casts light onto them. End description]

Is this anything

[questbedhead]

My favourite thing about Judith Deuteros is that she sincerely and without pomp believes herself to be the most competent and level headed person in the cast even though the only thing she's accomplished in 1400+ pages is getting mortally wounded while calling for help

[questbedhead]

Judith fails to assert her authority socially because she tries to pull rank on people who are, by conceit of their presence, her social equals

Then she fails to assert her authority through force because she underestimated two people who were, in fact, her strategic and martial superiors

And THEN when she was at the end of her rope instead of cooperating with the people who were actively investigating the problems, she decided to murder a group of old people so she could call on the Greater Authority in the sky to tell everyone she was right.

And the old people fucking kicked her ass.

[honorarycassowary]

Judith forgot the most important rule of all, which is that if you go to a remote repository of secret learning staffed only by tiny old men in robes who look like they could be taken out by a stiff breeze, those tiny old men can kill twenty people with like, a single eyelash.

[Image description: A comic strip featuring Harrow and Gideon from The Locked Tomb. Harrow holds up a key and says, "Look" to Gideon. Harrow frowns, puzzled. Gideon looks directly into her eyes, equally confused. Harrow says, "At the key, moron, not at me." Gideon focuses. End description]

[Image description: Digital art of Alecto from The Locked Tomb. It is dark. She stands at the center of an archway, walking on water. She has ankle length hair and wears a slip dress. She holds a large sword in one hand. Her hands and mouth are stained with blood. The golden eye uncovered by her hair stares ravenously at the viewer. Varun, appearing as a glowing blue orb in the sky, is behind her. End description]

Harrow reached up—her hand was trembling—and tapped Gideon on the cheek. “Nav,” she said, “have you really forgiven me?”
