Sorry, my what? My pronouns? Oh, yeah I'm between genders at the moment. No, it's cool, I quit my last gender a little while ago because it really wasn't working out. I don't know if I even have a dream gender anymore.

Oh yeah, it did come with benefits, but they weren't really worth it. The culture was really toxic. To be honest I think I'd prefer a part-time gender so I can just be self-described in my spare time.

“Harrow, I can’t keep my promise, because the entire point of me is you. You get that, right? That’s what cavaliers sign up for. There is no me without you. One flesh, one end.”

...she haunts my brain rent free and i love it

I’ve been reading those Locked Tomb books you hear about on the news, I’m on the second one right now and like. You know those married couples who need a divorce but have a kid instead and then use that kid as their pretext to stay together even though they hate each other? Now imagine that instead of having a kid, they adopted the two meanest girls at your high school, and instead of being a married couple, it’s one of those Toxic Polycules you hear about from the Pacific Northwest who put an ad in a queer housing group on facebook that’s like “you will live in a broom closet and all dishes will be your responsibility. Scorpios need not apply.” This is what every scene with John and the Lyctors is like.

man you can really tell the locked tomb fandom's composition by the utter lack of horny palamedes content. I respect this deeply and wouldn't change it for the world but my guy is out there looking like a milo atlantis expy being pedantic yet kind and having arrestingly beautiful eyes and you can just tell the fanartists only want him inasmuch as they want to put him in a jar with some leaves and a twig. jod bless

sorry to still be mentally ill over the locked tomb but for all that i keep seeing people emphasise alecto's apocalyptic rage, alecto as an eldritch horror shackled into the body of a barbie doll, etc etc i feel like it cannot be overlooked that Nona Is Still In There. she may not remember it, but alecto is still nona. nona was still alecto. alecto's rage and nona's love come from the same depths. the nona who laughed at pyrrha's stupid jokes and wore goofy t-shirts to make little children laugh and got excited for her birthday is the same nona who broke her hands and feet in a blind bloody screaming rage when she woke up to find herself (once again) in chains. i did not spend 480 pages watching nona love recklessly and wholly and extend that love to every small thing, every person and creature she connected with, loving a life lived with her little found family in borderline poverty in a warzone, to believe that alecto is the monster the lyctors described her to be or to believe that alecto won't still love just as recklessly

Tamsyn Muir really just sat down and wrote a book from the pov of the character least qualified to have any fucking clue about what’s going on and then proceeded to make sure each successive book was written from the perspective of an even less qualified bitch. Like we go from a jock filling in last minute at an international science competition, to a traumatized teenager with a DIY lobotomy trying to keep up with a bunch of 10,000 year old demigods, to a SIX MONTH OLD operating in a TERRORIST CELL. Pray for Alecto y’all, homegirl doesn’t stand a chance in hell of understanding the story she’s in.
