holy fuck we're back from Dragoncon and TLT COSPLAYERS REMAIN UNDEFEATED YAAAAAAARGH

without further ado, I present an initial dump of selected photos I took at the official TLT meetup -

Third/Fifth/Eighth House serving absolute cunt:

Cristabel Oct, the Woman that you Are, completely wrecking everyone's day:

Dios Apate, complete with traumatized Ianthe & Harrow:

all the Harrows & Gideons flipping one another off:

Individual mentions go to this INCREDIBLE Matthias Nonius, Ms. Gideon Frizzle, & a self-indulgent nod to the doomed triad:

feat. @eldritchw1tch and @incandescentorrery as two of our Ianthes, me as Cam, @archety-pal as Pal, and @aduck8myshoes as a pitch-perfect Dulcie. if you're also in any of these, definitely let me know (& tag me if you upload them, here or on IG at @feather.break) - I'd love to keep in touch!

I'll be editing and posting more individual images & solo shoots of various friends & co-conspirators for weeks, probably - stay tuned!

“Ianthe the First is a continual surprise to me. If I was going to pass out a fourth epithet, I’d call her the Saint of Awe.” - Harrow the Ninth, ch. 23

(alternately: “Why did you ascend to be a Lyctor?” “Ultimate power—and posters of my face.” - Harrow the Ninth, ch. 48)

"Here are some of the traditional heroic tropes I went with: ... TWINS BUT ONE TWIN IS A BEEFALO AND THE OTHER TWIN IS A POT OF YOPLAIT ZERO PERCENT YOGHURT" - Tamsyn Muir, re: Gideon the Ninth, Jan. 21, 2019

"Camilla had been crouched down, wiping her knives on one of their jackets. ... One of her eyes was a pale, pearlescent grey; the other one of her eyes was a deep, cool stone colour."

“Because I wanted you to know all the truth,” said the dead daughter of the Seventh. “The whole, unpackaged, slipshod truth. Truth unvarnished and truth unclean. Pal and I were always zealots, in that line.” - Harrow the Ninth, ch. 53

Palamedes Sextus: @archety-pal Dulcinea Septimus: @aduck8myshoes photo: @featherbreak @ Dragoncon 2024

(alternately: I HEARD YOU ALL LIKE HEART CRIMES)

[featherbreak]

Palamedes slams both hands down flat on the lid of the upper coffin, then thrusts his arm out to point an accusing finger at Ianthe. PALAMEDES     You’re avoiding the question! Ianthe is somewhat taken aback. So, after a second, is Palamedes. IANTHE     I’ve got to know. Why did you … do that? PALAMEDES     I’m not sure. It felt right. - "The Unwanted Guest" by Tamsyn Muir

"Then Alecto remembered the vow, and turned back upon the altar to face the second child and raised the sword with wrath in her heart, for they meant to bring destruction upon her." - Nona the Ninth, epilogue

Pyrrha [...] did not kiss the top of Camilla’s head but told her, “Good hunting, you two.” “Good hunting,” echoed Camilla. - Nona the Ninth, ch. 4
