Clown Prince Of Ida

So I was thinking, about the Lyctors and their Sainthood titles. And while yes, we know they were named for their cavs, I think they were also named for the parts of them that their cavs brought out.

For Mercymorne, there was only one person who ever truly brought her Joy. G1deon had a very certain person who brought out in him a sense of Duty. Augustine’s brother taught him Patience, etc. They were named for the parts of themselves brought to light by their cavs.

Even Ianthe, who only through Babs’ sacrifice and becoming a lyctor, could she finally get the attention and individual notoriety, the Awe, she’d been so deeply desiring. And it’s a whole different conversation if you want to argue that her true cav is her sister.

And thus I present to you Harrowhark the First, the Saint of Comedy, because there was only one person who could truly make Harrow smile.

She was probably named the Saint of Awe, cause John was awed anyone put up with her for that length of time without killing her. /j (My avenue is.. He's awed that Bab's was still able to fight back even after being slurped like a capri sun.)

Hey, OP here, @incorrect-house-of-nine how dare you be funnier and more clever then me on my own post?????? /lh /j

Sure. On one of the crumbling verandas?

If we wanna be gay, it can be the pool, but verandas also work /lh

I better start 🌬️ up my floaties then.

Bro are we about to fight kiss in the salt pool at the Caanan House?!? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

The fact I am ginger and also a butch makes this whole exchange funnier to me I hope you know

Yo, where you at? I be waiting.

Right here!

Looking a lil rough there, buddy.

Remember folks, Water Safety!!! Never go into the water without your floaties. (This has been a PSA from your friendly Water Roo.)

Now I’ve been rescued??? 😳😳 what a turn of events!

the one trope that never fails to Get Me is normal butch x insane femme

butch whos kind of down to earth and rolls with the punches & femme whos utterly deranged and out to win her man (female). shes like hes the specialest girl ever and if you dont clap for him i’ll blow up this fucking building

like 90% of the responses to this post feature characters who are literally not butch but thats ok i too love projecting on fictional characters and lying to myself

Gideon Nav and Harrowhark Nonagesimus (though I’d argue Harrow isn’t exactly super femme)

Btw narcissists aren’t responsible for your abusive ex/friend/family member/boss that may or may not have had NPD and it’s really fucking weird to treat people who didn’t know you even existed before you decided to attack their existence as if they’re personally responsible.

Like I understand your ex husband was a sack of shit but why are you 36 yelling at a 23yr old pwNPD still living with their abusive parents about it

I love Holga so much actually she's obsessed with potatoes (as she should be) she has a thing for short guys she saw a man at his lowest and his baby daughter and decided she needed to look out for them she's strong and fierce and tough and her best friend singing makes her laugh somehow she manages to contain perfectly barbarian class tropes while never once falling into stereotype she's kind she's loving she's got the highest kill count of the entire party she's a mother she genuinely likes Edgin it could have so easily fallen into the "competent person annoyed by irritating person yet keeps them around for some reason" dynamic but it doesn't she likes him she's sad and angry and fair and good and gentle and literally goes into a wild rage when she fights people. Chatacter of the century perhaps.

theres something so special about ianthe tridentarius being a genre-destroying caricature of an edgy YA badboy sexy flopvillain and i mean it. no emotional stakes just this 6 foot tall gumby looking creature in a open shirt doing fuck all but leaning on doorways sauntering around and smirking at y/n. babygirl

god gives the hardest battles to his most duplicitious sluts

have we considered that the wedding in alecto the ninth is judith and coronabeth

The fact that Ianthe is sorta Gideon’s type is so funny. Like most fics make Gideon jealous of her but Ianthe looks half dead, which is Gideon’s type and she ignores her and is mean, which is ALSO Gideon’s type.

Poor Gideon is sitting there like ‘…. I hate that you’re funny and weirdly hot and that you keep hitting on my girlfriend.’

[16/75] Divorce Quartet - Steady, Steady

“This ring around my finger's like a chain around my throat. Are you so sure you've tamed me?”

ok the way gender is treated in the tlt books is fucking revolutionary all around and i could probably make one of these posts for each of the characters individually, but i've always found coronabeth's gender presentation in particular to be oddly compelling. like, it's subtle, but it's absolutely there.

she's blonde and leggy and curvy and the way she appeals to people is on the face of it very feminine. she is arguably one of the most femme characters in the series. but also. she strides into the room like a lion. she looks like a king. she's tall and toned and commanding and she looks damn good in cargo pants. one of the primary descriptors nona uses for her is big. that is the true appeal of coronabeth, isn't it? she commands attention, she commands respect, she takes up space. that is a very traditionally masculine way to interact with people and it's only ever noted with admiration bordering on awe.

and isn't that kind of incredible? arguably the most femininely attracive character in the series is appealing the way statues of goddesses are appealing. she's gallant and confident and bossy and big.

god, i love this series.
