Harrow said, in bottom-of-the-ocean tones: “The Ninth House has not practised its art on—weeny—constructs.”

(Gideon the Ninth, chapter 20)

This bone you unfolded into a seething web of phalanges and nuggety clumps of palm bones, pressed into the door; then those distal tips you turned into fluid, and this fluid you turned into liquid ash a micrometre thick, a very—weeny—construct.

It’s 40 questions. You can take it here.

If you want to put in the tags what you got that would be cool!!! I’d love to know! I hope you guys like it.

she talks about how rigid and unnatural harrow’s parents are as puppets, meets protesilaus and describes how rigid and unnatural he is in the exact same way, and her only analysis is “well i bet i can take him in a fight”

she zones out right as abigail starts talking to cytherea about communication between the original lyctors (which obviously has major implications) and calls it “boring”

she doesn’t realize corona’s facade even when corona demonstrates MULTIPLE TIMES in front of gideon that she’s incapable of doing typical necromancer things AND ianthe explicitly refers to herself as the singular necromancer of the third to gideon

palamedes also points out that gideon should know how many keys are left in play and she DOESNT because she just hasn’t been paying attention or bothered keeping count

dulcinea also surprises gideon with her perceptiveness and unexpected ability to win TWO keys and harrow even warns gideon she’s dangerous and gideon STILL doesn’t perceive her as a threat cuz hnggg hot lady nice

and it’s very obvious Things are Happening but because gideon dismisses it, we kinda do too. and we aren’t privy to any of the extra insight because our narrator is too busy simping over cougars, blonde bimbos, and her boss to take note of any of the big stuff.
