my uni staged philoctetes and one of the best choices was to have odysseus walk in with a cigarette through the entrance directly beneath the "no smoking" sign

Actually so fucking sad how plausible it is that Kiriona would want to try to become her father's cavalier. Like that girl stepped simultaneously into her hastily tailored cavalier robes and into the only small part of her short life where she received any respect, validation, or affection at all. Of course she'd make being a cavalier a core piece of her identity. Of course some dumb hopeful part of her might wonder if maybe, just maybe, the same trick could work on her dad

Started this months ago but procrastinated hard bc I didn't want to draw backgrounds </3

A fast, sketchy, angsty Kiriona for your needs and mine. SHE IS ALL THE THINGS ! SADDEST GIRL IN THE WORLD !

(This is base off an Au by @novalizinpeace of their smiling critters cartoon au I hope they like it, also sorry for the poor spelling an or grammar not only did I wrote this late at night I'm just a little dyslexic)

Warning mention Character Death and War

Queen Gaia just got her twins to sleep. Both Dogday and Catnap wanted to see their father when he came home tonight. She couldn't blame them she too wants to see her husband tonight. Not only will he be there for a longer but also be home for the twin's 4th birthday next week. She can only hope he will stay longer before going out again for the war. She was all most to the throne room when she heard a yell be hide her. "Your highness" it was rush out of the Messager mouth as they ran in. "What new do you give tonight?" she asks with a smile. "It your husband, he died this morning in the battlefield, I'm sorry your highness." the Messager softly said to the now widowed Queen Gaia. Queen face slowly turned one of shock, as she run though her head of what they just said. "I-I I'm sorry come again" she said not believing the words coming out of the Messager mouth. Her beloved die on the battlefield without the warmth of his family by him. Leaving not only her not only widowed but their children fatherless. This must be some cruel joke someone came up with. "My highness, I only speak of the truth you husband had die this morning" the Messager said in pity. "I'm sorry I need to take my leave" Gaia said before rushing off. Gaia heart couldn't take it, he was gone, and she can't do anything about it. She opens the door to her bedroom now. She tries to stand up using her bed, but she couldn't keep herself up any longer and falls onto the floor. she let out soft sobs, that slowly turn into a wail of pain. How is she going to explain this to her boys. She didn't get any sleep that night.

(Hopely I didn't do Queen Gaia dirty. I also know I took some leap with the ages(maybe), but I think Catnap and Dogday being thee made more senses to me. They remeber their father but like not a lot if you know what I mean. Nova I hope you like this, it is my first ever fanfic I posted that wasn't for myself. Also, if people like this I may write more about nova au and or mine own)

the fact that the harrow nova universe implies that gideon is now the necromancer makes me crave a true role reversal au. like, one where everyone's roles are reversed.

just imagine. ianthe and coronabeth as cavaliers. babs as a necromancer. palamedes as a cavalier. camilla as a necromancer.

fuck it. go even further;

lock john in the tomb.

idea: alecto locked him in the tomb when she realized he had too many powers for one human to have, and had become an active threat.

now, this leaves us in a universe where....alecto is the emperor. and to be completely fair, her overall personality and demeanor fit the role of god much better than john's. which leaves us with two very different versions of mercymorn and augustine. a mercymorn and augustine who are, for one, absolutely terrified of the emperor of the nine houses, and a mercymorn and augustine who know they can't threesome their way into a betrayal. and maybe, just maybe, they're not too fond of the whole "locked our friend in a tomb on pluto for 10 000 years" thing.

as for john himself, idk man. maybe some time in the tomb would do him some good. a few thousand years to, like, y'know. think about the whole "destroyed the universe" thing. also, i just like the idea of him, at the end of the nova universe's version of ntn, walking out of the tomb and saying something stupid like "what year is it?" "10008" "damn it. my alarm didn't go off."

oh, also, pyrrha in control of g1deon for the entirety of htn, only for g1deon to emerge at the end. haven't given this idea that much thought, but i'm sure there are g1deon enthusiasts who could do it justice.

I'm skipping a few drawings in-between these two for the sake of being related-ish, but we'll come back to those.

Technically this Chaos design could be considered OC-ish I guess ? Chaos is a deity here, and quite a major one considering chaos energy is the aura in everything ! Here he is mortal, for purposes.

so they are no longer two, but one flesh

bonus:

guys i don't think i can do this

Clinging like a piece of driftwood at sea to that interview bit where muir said we get to see in alecto what Gideon and Harrow's relationship looks like when Gideon has the upperhand

Absolutely fucking hope that means we get to see the girlies interacting. One hundred percent here for our precious baby girl prince to be a petty pile of dogshit about it

the feminine urge to always be playing a new virtual world game ...

AUGUST of 2022, I visited Quintana Roo, Mexico 🇲🇽 for the first time. NOVEMBER 30, 2022, @blkdickmatterss and I were on the road, with all of our things in storage, we were headed back to Quintana Roo for our first round of living out of the country just in time for my 35th b🌎day and our 10th year anniversary. We promised one another that our overall healthcare ⚕️would be the priority. Here’s my 8 month gym 🏋🏾‍♀️progress report. This isn’t even a tenth of the content. YouTube will have it all... once I get to it!

Thank you so much to all of the encouragers throughout this journey. @blkdickmatterss for driving that 60 hour drive with me from Vegas to Playa Del Carmen MULTIPLE TIMES and BACK! Thank you for training our friends and family. Thank you for calling @iamlivingaligned when my depression was too big for you to carry. Your vulnerability and awareness to say when enough is enough makes you more of a role model to me.

Thank you @iamlivingaligned for not only being the projector I knew I needed in my life, but for making the trip and move to Playa Del Carmen first, but for also believing in me enough to put me on your stage, guide me through my next stage in entrepreneurial efficiency, sex magic, astrology and music. Thank you for also showing up to the gym EVERYTIME!

Thank you to @laydee_lex & @betty_bullshit for making us international entities! You both charge our LEO ENERGY the FUCK UP! 🥂Here’s to next year’s international trip 😛

when Kiriona says to Crux: "“Good. Die. Die for [Harrow] … it’s the only goddamn good you’ll ever do for her. It's all any of you ever knew how to give her. You could have lived for her … but you didn’t know how.”

this is it, isn’t it? Gideon calls herself out and lays bare something this entire series has been built on: love as consumption, as sacrifice, as a fucking forest fire and a nuke: "you have not yet seen the horrors of love"

Gideon dies for Harrow because she thinks it’s all she can do. Harrow sacrifices her selfhood and her mind and every memory of Gideon, because she cannot conceive of a universe without her. Camilla and Palamades die for each other because they cannot bear to be apart, the idea of the perfect love twisted into a mutual death. John loves the world so much that he ate it. destruction and revenge and cannibalism as the ultimate expressions of devotion.

the D in devotion stands for dead.

and obviously, that is all incredible and extremely thought provoking and sexy, but..... Kiriona names the one avenue of love that this series has not yet really explored: what if you lived for someone instead of dying for them.

i’m thinking of Abigail and Magnus, in the river bubble, telling Harrow to live for Gideon instead of dying for her. i’m thinking about how Ianthe loves Coronabeth so much and refuses to eat her, refuses to consume her, leaves her abandoned and sobbing but alive. i’m thinking about Blood of Eden’s founding protocol, the one that supersedes all others: the order to live.

Kirona has named it, but how does she earn it -- how does Harrow earn it? narratively speaking. anyway... even if AtN doesn’t end up exploring this i am turning it all around in my head.
