LMAOOOOO i’m pissing myself laughing this is the funniest shit in all of these goddamned books. idk why but this really got me😭😭😭 she just likes it!!! in a life or death moment too—unserious AS HELL!!!
I cannot imagine anything more terrifying than telling God my worst sin and him not believing me because it was so terrible he didn’t think it was possible
Loove the English major representation of TLT. we got:
Ortus - never kills his darlings. Has been working on the same project for so long writing something else would feel like divorce
Protesilaus - incredibly talented poet whose pen effortlessly creates art and is the source of fierce envy from the class runner-up (Ortus) who he views as bestie
btw it is SO funny to me that harrow the ninth sets up the question of gideon’s parentage by obscuring g1deon’s name through most of the book. and if you’re able to piece any of it together early you’re like hang on….. a lyctor named gideon…. who MUST have known commander wake…… biblically, dare i say…….. and he’s a ginger……… and then the actual reveal happens and it’s like oh actually that’s all unrelated. yeah wake did have a torrid affair with two people in the same body but that’s not relevant to her pregnancy. you see actually there was a nefarious threesome and they stole god’s sperm so wake could self-inseminate. yeah g1deon kind of just happened to be there. sorry
G1deon like “I thought the kid [was/might be] mine”. Perfectly reasonable assumption there mate! 100% logical given the facts at hand.
Not at all what happened though because of all the insane people doing insane people shit in the shadows. You weren’t to know about that though, sorry.
hot sauce got manic pixie dream girled by nona into learning empathy for the people who she once fought in a war against and NOW she’s either 1) never going to see her ever again, or somehow worse 2) run into Harrow, who certainly hates children, has gotten hypothermia from the many planet genocides she’s committed, and DOES NOT KNOW OR REMEMBER HER AT ALL. this kid’s shit is already so deeply fucked up, imagine how much WORSE its gonna get. GOD 14 really is the worst age
guys can we talk about for one second how nona kissed gideon as soon as she looked at her and her reasoning was “You looked like you wanted to be kissed.”
lets backtrack. Gideon. Opens her eyes. The first thing she sees is Harrow(’s body). Harrow. Harrow. And Nona, who reads people like books (joke is nona cant read) sees how badly Gideon wants to kiss Harrow(’s face) and kisses her.
Can we talk about what this meant to Gideon for one moment. Can we talk about the implications of this please. guys please.
PLEASE CAN WE TALK ABOUT THIS. PLEASE. GUYS PLEASE -
