"There are such things as ghosts. People everywhere have always known that. And we believe in them every bit as much as Homer did. Only now, we call them by different names. Memory. The unconscious."

just two girls carrying what’s left of their loved ones // actually if I remember correctly that’s the last time harrow saw cam and pal isn’t that insane that she never got to say goodbye to them before paul!! and she almost didn’t remember them after the lobotomy!!

[scriptorsapphic]

(Not justifying it) but has anyone noticed that Harrow acts the most violent with Gideon when she thinks there’s a possibility Gideon could leave her???

Has anyone noticed that the day she decides to die it’s directly after and Gideon had an awful fight about whether or not Gideon’s parents would ever come to claim her???

Ok, well… I noticed, and I’m unwell about it…

this one part from harrow the ninth always made me really upset. so i made a four page comic out of it!

[sprainedankle15]

this is fucking amazing oh my GOD

[carbpropaganda]

Read gideon the ninth again, as one does, and i'm amazed by how much gideon wants to be used by harrow. Harrow is like "so sorry nav i need your help to defete this big bone monster" and gideon is like "girl what are you waiting for? Why aren't you in me already"

Forever the thruther of sub!gideon

''the secret history vibe is studying hard and loving the classics'' so close! the secret history vibe is a close group of pretentious idiots who secretly hate each other murdering people for the vibe and ignoring the concepts of the moon landing and hypothermia

Paris lesbian club, 1934

[doc-cocker]

Not just any lesbian club - Le Monocle, Montmartre; sadly closed towards the beginning of WW2.

Wearing a monocle (and the associated suit and oiled-back hair) was a lesbian fashion at the time.

remember in htn when palamedes hugs harrow?

my favorite detail about that moment is that he lifts her bodily off the ground, because palamedes has only seen one (1) person hug harrow ever, and they did it exactly the same way:

palamedes hugged harrow just like gideon, bc he figured it was how she liked to be hugged.

so, so valid of anthony to barely be in this season because he canonically can’t stop fucking his wife long enough to be a functioning member of society
