[id: a digital illustration of a scene from Gideon the Ninth. Gideon leans down to whisper in Harrow’s ear: “do you want my hanky?” and Harrowhark angrily replies “I want to watch you die.” they’re both wearing ritual skull paint, Harrow’s smudged with tear streaks. Gideon is dressed in a plain black shirt, black robe, dark gray jeans and knee length black boots. there’s a rapier hanging from her belt. Harrow is wearing a ribcage on top of her long, black dress with puff sleeves. they’re surrounded by stars and planets. there’s a bunch of skulls under their feet. /end id]
