Huevember day 6: Emperor John Gaius
—
The only splash of colour was an enormous portrait of the Emperor as Kindly Master, with an expression of beatific peace.
As seen hanging on the wall of the Eight House’s quarters in Canaan House ✨⚔️💀⚔️✨

I do not feel like a sheep of the Good Shepherd, I feel like a semi-feral kitten Jesus got out of a car engine after hours of me running around screaming in the undercarriage and clawing anyone who tried to rescue me.

i just think if we're going to talk about harrow being a "fundamentally religious" character we also need to talk about the way religion in the nine houses is depicted as a tool of violence and oppression both within and outside of the nine houses.
like clearly jod uses his position as god and worship of him to induce characters to murder the people they love, thereby isolating them so that they love and worship him alone and uphold his empire. in htn we literally see how he isolates harrow (by ordering g1deon to kill her) and takes advantage of the faith this deeply vulnerable teenage girl has in him.
religion on the ninth is also used to justify the murder of 200 children and the extreme abuse gideon endures growing up. but i think most importantly, worship of john throughout the nine houses is used to justify the imperialist conquest and destruction of planets outside the nine houses, in a way that clearly intentionally parallels european imperialism. so, yes, harrow in htn is fundamentally religious — and because of her religion, she also functions as a tool of a violent imperialist empire.
