i need a locked tomb adaptation YESTERDAY because i know that tlt editors would slay the house boots down with an ianthe tridentarius edit for the 'wait for it' trend
picture it:
I am the one thing in life I can control [ianthe with her cavalier’s heart in her hand, his blood on her face, coronabeth sobbing]
I am inimitable I am an original [ianthe’s eyes changing, ianthe learning sword fighting, ianthe with the empty coffin of naberius tern]
I’m not falling behind or running late [ianthe, harrowhark, and palamedes all saying “i am the greatest necromancer of my generation”]
I’m not standing still I am lying in wait wait wait wait [ianthe, drenched in blood sweat, standing behind a glowing coronabeth, ianthe stepping forward to challenge the Sixth, ianthe stabbing cytherea from behind, ianthe waiting until the last moment to rescue god from the stoma]
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb. He has something to prove he has nothing to lose [THE LOBOTOMY SCENE, harrow’s unopened letters, harrow’s lack of healing, harrow’s unchanged eyes]
Hamilton’s pace is relentless he wastes no time time time time [harrow doing theorems in the River, harrow killing planets, harrow exploding g1deon with marrow soup, harrow creating ianthe’s bone arm]
What is it like in his shoes? [ianthe looking on while the emperor gives harrow special treatment]
Hamilton doesn’t hesitate. He exhibits no restraint. [harrow ascending and killing cytherea while ianthe is bleeding out on the floor]
He takes and he takes and he takes [harrow turning her head away from Ianthe’s kiss, harrow rejecting ianthe’s protection from the heralds, harrow at the tomb telling ianthe “then perish”]
And he keeps winning anyway. He changes the game. He plays and he raises the stakes. And if there’s a reason He seems to thrive when so few survive then goddammit I’m willing to wait for it. [ianthe in the water of the tomb watching alecto swear her loyalty to harrow and seal it with a kiss]
DO YOU SEE MY VISION

harrowhark “my whole existence is the result of 200 dead children, i am the product of sacrifice and have to live with the guilt of that everyday. i am in love with a corpse and i puppet my dead parents around so i am not alone. i cannot take another loss” nonagesimus
gideon “i gave my life for you and you didnt even want it, even worse you refuse to accept it, wasting my sacrifice. you lobotomized yourself to forget everything i did for you—you refuse to embrace the life i have provided you over and over again, and now im stuck as a reanimated corpse” nav
and
coronabeth “i am sick with heartbreak and jealousy that you didnt murder and consume me, your other half, refusing to let me join you on your journey forwards, instead giving that honor to some dick they assigned us. I am dejected and maimed” tridentarius
ianthe “you are the last person i would kill—i would kill myself first without hesitation rather than lay a finger on you. i cannot live without you and i could not live myself if i was the one who removed you from this world” tridentarius

“National teacher shortage” is a fun way of saying that the USA has made a passion driven job so ungodly inhospitable that even people who “just care about teaching, not the money” don’t even care about teaching anymore.

I love love love the moment in Gideon the Ninth where the Third challenges the Sixth in a clearly unfair move, and Gideon, half-on-instinct, still faking a vow of silence, simply unsheathes her sword, at which Harrow doesn't miss a beat and says her "The Ninth House will represent the Sixth House" line, while Gideon just smiles.
In Gideon's head this is "I am not standing for this shit anymore. For the love of God, Harrow, please understand what I'm doing and back me up here. Oh thank fuck you've got it. I'm so happy I could kiss you."
In Harrow's head this appears to be "For fuck's sakes, Nav, what do you think you're doing. Ok, think. Can't give anything away. Have to project unity, but fuck you, Griddle, for making me do this."
But for everyone else this is the legendary, mysterious, terrifying, bone magicians of the Ninth House, with no warning, stepping between the Sixth and the Third. The skull-faced cavalier who hasn't said a single word simply drawing her sword. The shockingly powerful and inscrutable necromancer matter-of-factly declaring an alliance that no-one, even the supposed allies, knew about. The sinister smirk on the cavalier's face. And the line from Harrowhark: "Death first to vultures and scavengers."
I love it so much and I love additionally the moment that this sets up in the climax, which is essentially the same emotional beat, the key changes being 1) both Harrow and Gideon have become open and vocal with each other; 2) both Harrow and Gideon are working together consciously as well as instinctively; 3) their opponents don't back down so they follow through. "Nav, show them what the Ninth House does." "We do bones, motherfucker."

I know I just made a post about it, but "You can't take loved away," fucks me up SO bad. Nona, who's known that she's dying for ages, facing the fact that regaining her memories is a form of dying that she hasn't prepared for. Nona, who isn't afraid of dying but is so, so scared of becoming someone who doesn't love Camilla, Palamedes, and Pyrrha. Nona, who is love - deep, vibrant, endless love, for the whole world but especially for her family. "I won't love anything... I won't know how."
And Paul. Paul, who's already done the thing Nona is afraid, or at least a version of it. Two people who Nona loved more than anything in the world died and became Paul, and Paul both is and isn't Camilla and Palamedes. Paul, who regardless of whether they are or aren't the people Nona loved, loves Nona. Paul tells her, "Camilla and Palamedes were loved by Nona. Pyrrha was loved by Nona. It's finished, it's done. You can't take loved away. We loved you too. Palamades and Camilla loved you."
And I'm just supposed to be okay after that.

Imagine you’re some little evil woman sitting in Hades’ throne room when Orpheus walks in to make a deal to get Eurydice back, and Hades is like “yeah ok, just don’t look back otherwise she has to stay here” then walks out of the room. Almost immediately after hearing the conditions, Orpheus breaks his own neck so that it is physically impossible for him to turn it, and then demands that you gouge out his eyes for good measure. Eurydice then gets really upset because she’s convinced this is a sign that Orpheus hates her and never wants to see her again, and Orpheus is completely convinced that this was a normal and logical thing to do.
You are literally the only person in the universe who recognizes this as an act of love. They both then insult you to your face for thinking this is anything other than very normal (Orpheus), or petty hatred (Eurydice).
You are Ianthe Tridentarius.
