Blood of Eden remembers that Jod nuked earth. I wonder if they remember what he did before then. It is believed Cytherea hung out with them for a while. I wonder if they told her he used to cure cancers. If they did, she was absolutely 100% justified for everything she did in book one. Girl spent 10,000 years in a perpetual state of end stage blood cancer that had colonized her lungs in the service of a man who could’ve fixed it. I too would’ve gone on a rampage.

Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)

For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here

Being a nonbinary lesbian is like I don't have a gender but my gender is dyke and I'm not a guy but I am one of the guys and also I'm not a woman but when people talk about women I'm included. Hope this clears things up

I think, ultimately, the big difference between Gideon and Naberius is a matter of perspective. As readers, we see Gideon as the more sympathetic character because we're in her head the whole of book one, we know exactly why she is the way she is, and we see Naberius as the more annoying character because we only ever see him from the outside, from the perspective of a narrator who's never given a reason to like him. But I imagine that, were their perspectives to be reversed, our general opinions would be reversed, too. Because if we got the story from Babs's point of view, we'd see how the things in his backstory that are hinted at or implied have shaped him. We'd see what it's like to be responsible for guarding two people who can't stand you, and bearing that responsibility since you were a toddler. We'd see the effect of being constantly cheated on, of wanting to get married but having every relationship fail before it can get that far. The isolation, the bullying, living your life as a sword more than as a person. And we'd see the Ninth House's lousy excuse for a cavalier, who can't hold a rapier but who still thinks this is her story, that she's better than everyone else. Who shows off her muscles at a dinner party of all things, who's so annoying on so many levels... and who is really not so different from our narrator, if either of them had a chance to see it...

god bless ppl reading htn/ntn for the first time lamenting "I only understand like half of what's going on." the literal viewpoint characters understand maybe 10% of what's going on at any given time, you're doing fine sweetie
