A series of digital illustrations of scenes primarily from Gideon the Ninth, both canon and speculated. Lyrics from the song "Francesca" by Hozier are overlaid on each image. The first drawing is of the Pool Scene, colored mostly in shades of teal. Gideon holds Harrow underwater, one arm around her back and the other cradling the back of Harrow's head. Harrow pushes her fists against Gideon's chest and her mouth is open in a silent scream, her shoulders hunched as she tries to pry herself out of Gideon's embrace. TEXT: Did you think I'd give up? That this might've shook the love from me?ALT
A two panel image, colored mostly in purples and orange. The first is of Gideon and Harrow from the shoulders up. Gideon has her back to the viewer and wet hair obscures her eyes, but her mouth is visible and she is grinning at Harrow as she rubs a towel over her head. Harrow is frowning, has one eye closed, and her mouth is open in protest, but she is blushing slightly. Harrow's hand is on Gideon's wrist in the pretense of pushing her away, but her touch is too light. TEXT: Or that I was on the brink? The second image is Gideon and Harrow getting ready to sleep. Gideon is laying on the cavalier bed with her arms behind her head. She has several pillows and is grinning with her eyes closed. Harrow lies on her stomach at the end of her own bed, hiding the lower half of her face behind folded arms. She watches Gideon with an unusually soft expression. TEXT: How could you think, darling, I'd scare so easily?ALT
A drawing of Gideon and Harrow during the fight with Cytherea, where they are hiding in Harrow's bone dome (lol). The scene is dim and colored mostly in variants of black and gray, but fingers of yellow light stream in from the top, slightly illuminating Gideon's face. Gideon is sitting on the ground, hunched over Harrow who is nestled in the V of her legs. Harrow lies on her side, her head cradled in Gideon's lap, and one gloved hand is stretched up to touch Gideon's cheek. Their skull paint is in ruins and both of them are splattered with blood. Harrow is tired but she smiles up at Gideon, who watches her with concern. TEXT: Now that it's done, there's not one thing that I would change. My life was a storm since I was born...ALT
A two panel image. The first is of Gideon from the shoulders up. She pulls Harrow's hand away from her cheek and looks back over her shoulder, at the broken fence. The colors for this are dark and tinted yellow in the way that things sometimes are when there is too much smoke in the air. TEXT: How could I fear any hurricane? The second image is of Harrow and Gideon from the waist up, lifting their sword. Harrow's cloak and bone corset are gone, but there is more blood on her than before, staining her mouth and chest. Her right eye is black and the left is yellow. Gideon stands behind Harrow, uninjured and unbloody, cradling her arms. The only visible part of Gideon's face is her smile. Shards of the broken bone dome are behind them and the image is mostly in shades of gray and tan. Harrow has more color than Gideon, and the blood on her face is very red. TEXT: If someone asked me at the end...ALT
A closeup of Gideon's face and part of her shoulders. She is dressed as Prince Kiriona and her eyes are not as yellow as they should be. There is a red slice in her throat that does not bleed. There are dark circles under her eyes and she frowns, gritting her teeth. Her unkempt red hair hangs in her face and a black earring dangles from her right ear. TEXT: I'd tell them, PUT ME BACK IN IT!!ALT
