Battle for 3rd place

Propaganda under the cut

The Xenomorph

To cause general fuckery. To impregnate people to death. Impervious to most means of harm, she slays the day away by toying with her prey and murdering anyone who stands in her way.

Ianthe Tridentarius

She is trying so hard to be the main character by lying and manipulating her sister, her cavalier, her mentor, her ?love interests? (Spoiler???) And also god. Not sure how it's working out for her but she does love to lie and manipulate

Worstie Ianthe is the DEFINITION of gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss. She is one of a set of necromancer twins that are the heirs to their houses rule. Except wait, only she is a necromancer and she has spent their entire lives doing necromancy for the both of them. She is constantly mean to their cavalier, Naberius, who she occasionally nibbles on like a chew toy, before eventually killing and eating him to ascend to sainthood. She goes to gods spaceship with another woman who ascended to sainthood who she has a crush on, this other woman is like…. Both incredibly mentally unwell and also haunted by at least 211 ghosts. Ianthes method of flirting with her? Gaslighting her about the corpse that keeps moving around and hiding under her bed. For no real reason tbh. She is clearly plotting to overthrow god, and at the moment that consists of her manipulating him while he’s too sad about his long term partners betraying him and subsequently exploding to really care. She dresses in terrible outfits and makes soup by burning onions to the bottom of a pot, putting meat in and some vegetables and then it doesn’t taste like anything so she puts in a few teaspoons of salt so it tastes like a few teaspoons of salt. She had her crush amputate her arm and regrow her a new one out of bone and it’s one of the horniest things I’ve read in my life.

"Gaslight = told her lobotomized (she helped), schizophrenic girlobsession that there was no corpse under their bed, even tho there totally was. Gatekeep = girl did NOT share the secret to god-like ascension. She kept that shit to herself until it was time to eat her boytoy, and by then everyone knew already. Girlboss = she has a non-necromancer twin sister, and literally Everyone thinks they r both necromancers because Ianthe is so good at it. She reverse engineered ascending to the aforementioned ascension without even completing any of the supplementary tasks. She held her own in a fight against a 10k year old lyctor. She becomes the figurehead of her entire empire. "

She uses a man as a chewtoy in the first book, literally gaslights the protagonist of the second book about a corpse, and elder-abuses God when he gets depressed in the third book. Nobody is doing it like her.

Dives headfirst with no regrets while basically laughing and covered in blood into murdering her cavalier once she realizes what the gothic locked room mystery/competition leads to while everyone else is questioning it, helps perform lobotomy on harrow so she doesn't remember the person she loves, manipulates everyone to get to the top

idk just everything about her

her relationship with her sister is incredibly Bad, she fosters codependency and views Corona(the sister) as an extension of herself. This does not stop her from keeping up the con that Corona actually has magic (She doesn't, it was always just Ianthe) for 22ish years and every single person who interacts with them falls for it. She killed a man against his will (most dying for this purpose specifically go willingly) and she consumed him and she will be burning his soul for eternity. She's completely repulsive and still somehow incredibly hot.

she takes advantage of the fact that the main character is prone to hallucinations. at one point she gaslights the mc into believing that the corpse under her bed isn't real just because she can. she reverse engineered a set of very complex trials on her own without anyone realizing she had the skills to complete them normally. she's also babysat god through his drunk and pathetic era.

trying to figure out how i wanna draw some necros and cavs 💀🗡️

[meffez]

ik a lot of people don’t like gideon (or at least, his treatment of others, which I can understand) but watching s02e23 (no way out part II: the evilution of frank) just makes me sad.

he’s lost his family (probable wife [likely divorced] and his son, who he briefly reconnected with), his former team that died to a bomber (<- wish we got more info on them. who where they?), and sarah, his friend who frank murdered, (+ the other woman on the list of people he saved that was killed).

he’s also lost most of his comfort in the world, as well as his sanity in general.

“A profiler needs to have solid footing. I—I don’t think I do anymore. The world confuses me. The cruelty, the indifference...The tragedy.” (season 3, episode 1, “Doubt”)

I’ve never liked taking “apologist” stances on characters, because they’re complex and/or always changing—gideon is no saint, but he’s been through hell and back, which explains but does not excuse his actions.

I feel like that last part a lot of people need to take to heart. these are complex characters! they’re written by adults for adults! they’re going to be complex and unlikeable at times!

remember: the curtains are never “just blue”. engage w your media w love but also critically I am begging.

slowly realizing that i should actually reread tlt instead of scouring the internet for the million things i missed. Help

[boxofthings]

Everytime I see the huge difference in ghostsoap content vs ghostroach content I just think about how us Roach fans could've had it all if activision just added our boy in the reboots :')

i read gideon the ninth about 10+ months ago and i was not much of a fan and felt extremely let down by it but then i read harrow the ninth and it was like. okay. this one is fun. turns out i just disliked gideon as a narrator and that was all

[sofipitch]

Ten plus hour road trip in a few days, driving with my partner. I just made him listen to the first two chapters of Gideon the Ninth to see if he would like it and he did. Captive audience for my newest hyperfixation apprehended!
