truly believe that whatever gender fuckery Ianthe has going on in NtN is the sexiest she has ever been and i for one cannot get enough of it. she puts out a lit cigarette on her own skin. she is a total bitch to everyone and also very upfront about her machiavellian intentions. she’s a princess who never wanted to be a queen she’s a boy she’s a prince she’s a daughter of the third. she’s both “the good son” and the “lady of the first”. she’s a flesh magician and a lyctor which means she wakes up every day and intentionally chooses to look like an old rag hung up to dry. she’s so incredibly bad at Doing Gender that it wraps all the way around the other side and she becomes both incredibly good and wildly sexy at it. she’s constantly either making grandiose speeches that no one on the page cares about, screaming, or throwing up. just being openly gross & evil simply all of the time ❤️
