The opposite of a mansion murder mystery where everyone present is a bounty hunter who really wants to take credit for the murder and the detective has to find out who really did it
when Abigail says that she’s already ‘moved on’ the Fourth children, does that mean they’re sleeping somewhere else or just died offscreen?? did i just forget them dying, a lots been happening in two different timelines and i honestly can’t remember all of it 😭
and weird memory Canaan House is experiencing weird weather! something something Harrow's mindscape is getting less and less coherent something something
Magnus ❤️🥰 my buddy returns!
i find the line where he says ‘Not that bad - can’t complain - it’ll be a damn sight worse in the River’ intriguing because its all in italics, and given the River contains souls of everyone, this maybe feels like a hint about how at this point in the timeline originally they were dead?
oooh and with their good natured attitudes, the Fifth really have Harrow in a tight spot. just as last time, they are a lot more cunning than they initially seem
alright, a new message, this one seems to be discussing some kind of love affair between the speaker, an unknown ‘you’, and a third man. but more than that, they mention the ‘first time they died’, which to me is reminiscent of how the Locked Tomb body described dying twice?
i have a feeling these messages come from either one of the deceased Lyctors or their cavaliers
another interesting aspect is that the message mentions ‘heaven’ and ‘hell’, maybe i've just missed it being mentioned so far but i was surprised that they do have the concept of both of them, even if the idea of 'afterlife as moral punishment' doesn't seem to exist?
‘I really think you should consider the idea that you might also be haunted’ if i don’t get a ghost files style investigation feat. Harrow, Abigail, and Magnus, i will be very disappointed.

warm baked goods are insane. something so beautiful and almost maddening about absolutely tearing into them when they’re fresh. feeling warm all over after. I really do get vampires for real
More stories from hell (retail) today I was ringing up this lady and she goes oh I want to do part of this on a gift card and the rest on normal card and I go ok and then she hands me a folded piece of paper. I think oh OK it must be folded around the gift card, right? Wrong. It is a folded sheet of 8×11 printer paper with "$40" written on the inside in ballpoint pen. I go what is this. She says a gift card. I say this is not a gift card. She says yes it is. I say this is a piece of paper with "$40" written on it. She says "well it's a gift card." I say it absolutely is not. I am grinding my teeth. She says well I want to use it. I say you physically cannot do that bc it is a piece of paper. I cannot scan or swipe it. I apologize, as if this is my fault, and not because she is completely insane. I hate it here
well hello again Ianthe. i personally would be a bit angrier and more grossed out by the unknowing cannibalism, but you do you i suppose
wonderful, its time for an impromptu amputation! sure this can’t go wrong at all
oh shit, Harrow’s making her a new arm! sans flesh i suppose, but Ianthe seems to prefer it. also, if Harrow can grow back bone, it feels strange that the Emperor/other Lyctors didn’t just do that in the first place instead of giving Ianthe a transplant?
and now she’s in tune with Naberius’s … memory? soul? whatever it is, she’s finally in tandem with it
‘i’m going to help you kill the Saint of Duty’ yay, Teamwork makes the dream work i guess?
