Gideon Nav my beloved (charcoal + graphite, bc I am trying to learn to use charcoals)
child of god 🕊️🩸
✶
kiriona portrait bc i was going to post for sinulog (the festival of the child jesus in my country) and i've been thinking thoughts of both of them being children of god and symbols of colonialism/imperial expansion for monthssss
inspired by figurines of the child jesus: white, gold, and red embroidered cloaks, garlands of sampaguita (jasmine) flowers sold outside churches to be placed on religious figurines either in church or at home. it's also a superstition around se asia that spirits/ghosts carry the smell of jasmine flowers, which i thought was fitting for our corpse prince ♥
the fact that alecto could actually be announced this friday is making me insane but i think we all need to acknowledge that this is what we look like right now.
Is this our silksong or is this our yuri on ice movie. This is the question.
I am once again announcing to the world my prediction that the book tor is about to announce will be Kiriona the Ninth
me locking in to be edged by torbooks once again
gideon the ninth: "ah, I understand," said palamades, "what's happening here is-" at this point, Gideon decided to think about how hot dulcinia was
harrow the ninth: "i hate you you stupid little bug" said mercymorn, to which thirty percent of your body started bleeding profusely. Ianthe, The Body, and your sword judged you very harshly for this. "now now everyone," said God, "play nice together" as Gideon's spear protruded between your ribs.
nona the ninth: "I sure do love life," said nona. "God, you're such a loser," replied her friends Chewing Cinderblocks and Hot Cheeto Dust. Cow Wall Flashback. Noodle barked. Cow Wall Flashback "man, we should really do something about the magic beam that makes people insane," said palamades to the local commander, He Who Crowns Headless Chickens. Cow Wall Flashback.
I bet all the Cohort officials are sick to death of the Tower Princes. Imagine being forced to work for a shitty 20 year old nepo baby with a perceptually bad attitude because she can't get over her ex and her horrible toxic frenemy/rebound who has the personality of a snake trapped in a pillowcase. And you can't say shit about it because they are literally god's kid and a saint respectively.
Meanwhile god is busy crashing out and banging his way through your coworkers.
Tower princes making the cohort miss Mercymorn.
I was thinking about how we don't actually know how Pyrrha died. Just that by her own telling, she "was killed," and that she was the first cavalier to die outside Cristabel and Alfred's suicide pact.
Before Nona came out, I suspected Gideon the First must have killed her, probably with her consent. That seems unlikely to me now, with everything we've learned about them in Nona.
Also before Nona came out, I came to the conclusion that the lyctors demanded John kill Alecto following a "great attack" on Canaan House and the revelation of what a Resurrection Beast is. Based on Mercymorn's assumption that Alecto was a freak who would attack her on sight, I also highly suspected that Alecto either participated in or perpetrated the attack on Canaan House, thus proving herself beyond a shadow of a doubt to be untamed and dangerous in a way that not even John could talk his way out of.
I just recently noticed a detail in Nona the Ninth that might slot all this together like puzzle pieces:
Pyrrha has seen something very like Nona's tantrums before, and that memory scares her. Enough that she avoids even thinking about it.
I think Alecto may have killed Pyrrha.
I'm 50 pages in and already inspired to draw \o/

bury me in an unmarked grave
(aka gideon dealing with rejection aka me thinking about the fact that gideon's ultimate act of love is the ultimate act of betrayal for harrow)
details under cut!
Fuck it. Locked tombs your miku
I don’t think Nona’s strange eating habits are strictly due to her being an embodied planet - here’s why:
1. Throughout both GTN and HTN, Harrow is almost constantly losing blood. In addition to her near-death experiences and her brain hemorrhages, “blood sweat” is described as a relatively common effect of a necromancer exerting themself.
2. Frequent or heavy blood loss can lead to iron-deficiency anemia. Occasionally this or other nutritional deficiencies* can lead to pica, a condition that causes people to compulsively eat non-food items.
3. Things Nona, who is inhabiting Harrow’s body, has eaten in NTN or describes wanting to eat:
ice cubes
pencil
sand
plants
half a cigarette
eraser
wires
marker top
pebble
4. Common non-food items that people with pica may eat:
ice cubes
chalk
soap
clay, dirt, sand
plants, grass
buttons
the unused remainder of a cigarette
hair
paint
glue
rubber bands
rocks, pebbles
5. In conclusion: Nona is eating weird shit because Harrow’s body is dealing with a severe case of ~iron deficiency~. My bby is soooo low on red blood cells, feed that girl a steak and some spinach STAT!!! She needs her MINERALS!!!
[image ID in alt text]
*other conditions besides poor nutrition can cause pica too, you can do your own reading on that tho. i’m not a doctor
Forgot about this part!!! She is definitely deficient in some mineral. Could be due to just not eating enough overall, tied to her sensory issues.

Gideon the Ninth // Harrow the Ninth // Nona the Ninth (All Written by Tamsyn Muir)
Mercymorn fr deserved a mid 20's woman from the Cohort who was both madly in love with and hopelessly trained like a dog so that when Mercymorn snapped her fingers this younger woman would get up and remove any and all peanuts from meetings thinking "I am getting a Good Grade in being the Saint of Joy's most useful soldier. This is both normal to want and easy to achieve (horny)."
Listen to me. LISTEN TO ME!
Locked Tomb TV adaptation. Season 1 is most of book two until Gideon takes control of Harrows Body. Gideon is haunting the narrative but the audience doesn't catch on to that yet cause ITS BOOK TWO. Harrow has her rapid fire AUs but Gideons face nor her eyes are ever revealed. Final shot is of Harrow waking up with Gideons eyes BOOM end of season 1. (also the whole of season 1s music is understated and spacey) SEASON 2 starts with exactly like book 1. Shot of Gideon sharpening her sword. Shot of Gideons face but she's looking down (audience is like: OMG IS MYSTERY GIRL FROM LAST SEASON) Gideon looks up (Audience: THE EYES????) Pop punk lesbian sex music starts playing and that's the theme song from the rest of the season. Season 2 does all of book 1 PLUS the last 100 pages of book 2. When we make it back to where season 1 ended and Harrow looks up with Gideons eyes the theme song starts playing while Gideon fucks shit up.
This is my vision.
I love folks asking for no spoilers for the rest of Gideon the Ninth after they've read it. "Please no spoilers" my sibling in Jod, I even if I laid the rest of the plot out in bullet points for you step by step in an annotated diagram there is no way I could prepare you for what was happening. I could tell you point blank what happens to each and every character in the series and you'd still read the books and go "what the fuck". Tamsyn Muir made a spoiler proof trilogy. It's like the matrix. You cannot know what happens in future books. To be frank even if you read them it's pretty much uncertain you know what happens in future books. I want the next one right now.
if aught but death part me and thee
