it’s actually sick and twisted that harrowhark nonagesimus isn’t the most famous fictional character in the world. no one has ever had the same amount of creepy lesbian swag and no one ever will

the evolution of gideon describing harrow smiling in gideon the ninth: a comprehensive collection

Then Harrow cocked her head to the side like a quizzical bird and smiled a tiny, contemptuous smile. (Chapter 2)

The necromancer could not hide a triumphant smile. It stretched her mouth and made her split lips bleed. The sight was incomparably creepy. (Chapter 14)

Harrow’s lips curled. They showed her teeth, stained slightly pink with blood. She smiled again—slower than before, just as terrible, just as strange. (Chapter 14)

Harrowhark smiled. This smile was unusual too: it betokened conspiracy, which was normal, except that this one invited Gideon to be part of it. Her eyes glowed like coals with sheer collusion. Gideon didn’t know if she could handle all these new expressions on Harrow: she needed a lie down. (Chapter 16)

A small, astonished smile creased her mouth. The smile transformed her face into an affliction of beauty that Gideon had heretofore managed to ignore. (Chapter 32)

Gideon looked over her shoulder at her, and caught the Reverend Daughter’s smile. There was blood sweat coming out of her left ear, but her smile was long and sweet and beautiful. (Chapter 36)

The Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House smiled, tiny and triumphant. Then she keeled into Gideon’s arms. Gideon stumbled, sick with terror, kneeling them both down to the ground as Harrow lay like a broken rag doll. She forgot her sword, forgot everything as she cradled her used-up adept. She forgot the wrecked ligaments in her sword arm, her messed-up knee, the cups of blood she’d lost, everything but that tiny, smouldering, victorious smile. (Chapter 36)

The thing they don't tell you about fried egg runny yolk is that if you put it in a sandwich it will be the best most delicious thing and you can mop up the egg with the bread, but in exchange you Will get so so messy and covered in egg yolk

Hundreds of Jewish anti-war demonstrators have been arrested during a Passover seder that doubled as a protest in New York, as they shut down a major thoroughfare to pray for a ceasefire and urge the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, to end US military aid to Israel.

The 300 or so arrests took place on Tuesday night at Grand Army Plaza, on the doorstep of Schumer’s Brooklyn residence, where thousands of mostly Jewish New Yorkers gathered for the seder, a ritual that marked the second night of the holiday celebrated as a festival of freedom by Jews worldwide.

The seder came just before the US Senate resoundingly passed a military package that includes $26bn for Israel.

thinking deeply about Kiriona Gaia being just... Gideon Nav laid bare. like yeah, there's probably some soul fragment fuckery going on but i am just so convinced now that she IS Gideon Nav it's just that we the readers are, for the first time, seeing Gideon with all her trauma and horrible coping stratagies and none of her evasive and unreliable narration to offset any of it. and not only has Gideon been through the absolute ringer over the last what, 18 months? she was just... always kind of a bitch, because she needed to be in order to survive.

like, Gideon has always been Made Of Knives. and it's totally understandable!! to be clear my girl can do nothing wrong, thank you very much. but the Ninth House eats its own. of course she wouldn't be well adjusted, and not just in the "poor baby" way. the first language she ever learned was cruelty: abuse from the Reverend Parents, abuse from Crux, Aiglamene's mismatched love, her and Harrow tearing into and over each other like plants fighting for one small patch of sunlight.

we just had the last 2 books from her perspective, and she is a deeply unreliable narrator especially with regards to herself, so it didn't really come through -- though it is definitely perceptible once you understand the amount of emotional deflection parkour she's doing.

something something trauma makes you worse. suffering is not beautiful and does not make you better. sometimes you get fucked up and you dont emerge on the other side a poor little baby. sometimes you emerge a monster, because what other option did you have.
