If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading

ianthe and palamedes are inverses in that for an insane person ianthe is actually remarkably normal whereas for a relatively normal guy palamedes is just completely out of his mind

how could I forget the biggest thing they have in common: skeleton arm

that being said I'm not actually always opposed to conflict free fluff I am just opposed to the characters having their claws filed down for it. you can stick them in a coffee shop au it should just still feel like you sat the two worst most insane people on earth in a starbucks

It’s this exactly. As I remember saying back in the X-Files days, I didn’t want Mulder and Scully to look like what the media portrayed as a romantic couple. I wanted the media to portray a romantic couple the way they portrayed Mulder and Scully

tagging/content warning systems for media are often mocked outside of fanfic which is kind of too bad because i do think it'd be a really interesting vector of literary analysis to examine what the author or publisher thinks they should be informing their audience about vs. the actual content of the media in question

tagging my work devoid of any explicit sexual content as "dubcon" and sitting back to watch people fight over what i could have meant by this like i'm a roman emperor watching gladiators being devoured by lions in the coliseum

i think its funny that coronabeth and harrow have barely interacted. ianthe can judge coronabeth for judth deuteros but she still has to explain to corona that shes now down horrendous for the weird little ninth girl

ianthe views harrow as a true peer, someone who actually sees her, who matches her in intelligence and ambition. and so how do we think coronabeth is going to feel about that :)

The Alectopause has gone on so long that we are all, in a sense, worshipping that which is unknown and unseen, and the infinite possibilities therein, so much so that the actual inevitable release for Alecto will feel like a kind of death. That is to say, we have made an idol of Alecto the Ninth, and should be cautious when the real thing comes, lest the anticipation mean more to us than the thing itself.

I pray the book is never published. I pray the cover is never revealed. I pray that which was TBA remains TBA, insensate, in perpetual rest, with text unedited and unprinted. I pray it lives, I pray it sleeps.

i was gonna make a post about how the alectopause has spoiled us because whatever alecto the ninth is will not be the same as whatever the fuck the fandom has predicted. but then i remembered the entirety of harrow the ninth. the audacity to make it mostly second person. harrow's lobotomy. ianthe saying choke me daddy. god's tumblr jokes. and remembered that we don't know the inner workings of muir's mind and i should stay humble

i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.

I'd like to issue a formal apology to Palamedes Sextus, I was unaware of his swag. I always loved him dearly but it took me 3 rereads of GtN to realize this nerd has catastrophic levels of aura. Difficult to notice when Camilla Hect is next to him at all times
