Shao Lune, Ormsment’s staff captain.

[athetos]

Shao Lune is the absolute worst but god is it funny when she calls Baru a pathetic sopping wet rat of a woman, gives her a pep talk to become even worse, then pushes coke onto her

[anthyies]

women want her for her swagless economy-ruining cringe

[thelonghairedone]

I wonder if sometime during the events of The Tyrant Baru Cormorant or beyond if Aminata and Baru got to have a “Wait...you slept with WHO?” conversation where there is some mutual judgement of each other’s choice of hook-ups.

[the-girlboss-baru-cormorant]

Something about this scene at the end of Monster is so funny. The Black Emmenia is loose and Baru is being threatened by one more person whose loved ones she killed and invents this ridiculous pregnancy (she won't even consider marrying a man for political reasons, she'd do anything but that) and then fucking Shao Lune is there being unapologetically selfish because of course she is. What a shitshow

[averagemrfox]

Not “I can fix her” or “I can make her worse” but a secret third option

Top 5 moments of Shao Lune being the worst

I despise that woman with a fiery passion and I will gladly vent it here.

5. Hanging a plague flag in the rigging. Gets a half pass for the kettling being a genuine threat.

4. Pressing cocaine on Baru when she was having a crisis.

3. Her fucking racial fetishizing of Baru, and I can't believe that's only number three on this list god Shao Lune is awful.

2. Telling Baru to her face that she had no place in anti-mannism because her race would distract from the real struggle of Falcresti women.

1. Every moment of every interaction she ever has with or concerning Aminata
