thinking abt Alecto Harrowbod bc while i am basically convinced that Nona IS Alecto, the eye color thing just does not add up on surface level, esp w how we have seen it and how Palamades has described it…………..

bc like. Nona’s eyes are assumed to be Gideon’s yellow eyes but like. they could definitely be John’s. it was a whole thing that Augustine and Mercy assumed Gideon-in-Harrow’s eyes were Alecto’s (John’s). they could not tell the difference between Alecto’s (John’s) eyes and Gideon’s eyes. Nona’s yellow eyes being Alecto’s eyes, John’s original eyes, would make way more sense wrt how trading eyes works as described in canon – like it just does not make sense for Harrowbod to have Gideon’s eyes when neither Harrow nor Gideon are in residence. It would actually make more sense IMO for Nona-in-Harrow to have Harrow’s original eyes, than Gideon’s. im chewing on this im clawing at the walls when this book comes out im going to lose my shit
