> you know how eventually you can cobble together the plot of media you don’t actually engage with from following fans on Tumblr?

> that has never happened for me with…god I don’t even know what it’s called. The Locked Tomb? Harrow The Ninth? Death And Gay And Death And Gay And Memes [five-hour guitar solo]? this is the degree to which I genuinely have no fucking clue about this book series: I follow multiple hardcore fans, and I do not even know its proper name

> plot? oh you want to know the plot? I could not have less of a clue what the plot is. none of the information I’ve learned- and there’s been a lot of it - has gelled into anything cohesive in my brain

> I know there’s necromancy

> I know it’s Deeply Really Truly Incredibly Sapphic

> I cannot tell if it’s set in alternate universe (because that would make the most sense given the snippets of worldbuilding I’ve seen) or Earth’s future (because Memes apparently???)

> I know some people have numbers after their names? but it’s something to do with numbered clans, not their ancestors having the same name?

> I know The One Gay Death Lady Is Based On A Barbie From The 80s, Physically

> (they are all Gay Death Ladies, it seems)

> at this point I refuse to google it, even though I easily could. I have too much fun reading posts like “omg when Sapphia Dodecarius used Alex’s blood for the ritual to raise the dead king after they fucked with a strap made from his rib I couldn’t even” with absolutely zero context
