man you can really tell the locked tomb fandom’s composition by the utter lack of horny palamedes content. I respect this deeply and wouldn’t change it for the world but my guy is out there looking like a milo atlantis expy being pedantic yet kind and having arrestingly beautiful eyes and you can just tell the fanartists only want him inasmuch as they want to put him in a jar with some leaves and a twig. jod bless
if i died and got resurrected i would simply not come back wrong about it. not because i’m built different or anything i’m just already operating at maximum weird offputting little freak capacity.
*dies and comes back as a normal, well-adjusted human being*
every time i think about john its whiplash. he’s so fucked up and so human. he is needlessly cruel. he is doing his best to be kind. he didn’t cure cytherea’s cancer. he killed mercymorn in a fit of rage. he didn’t care about them. they were the only thing he cared about in the whole world. he renames people as a way to own them. he told harrowhark he thought of her like a daughter. he has no one in the whole world anymore. the nun’s body in the memory in the river. don’t look at her, that’s not what she looked like.
“i want to fix him” “i want to make him worse” “i want to put him in the microwave” “i want to study him under a microscope” well i want to put him in a jail, and fill up the jail with acid once for every time he made a frivolous remark, or ate peanuts at a cohort admiralty meeting, or said, “what would i know, I’m only God”
