once again just in love with how realistically tazmuir writes people especially since tlt is a totally off the rails with background lore sci-fi/fantasy series. specifically ianthe because i fucking hate her. shes a dick especially to my favorite character harrow and id fucking kill her if i could but also godDAMMIT shes funny. when everybody finds out protiselaus has been dead the whole time and theyre examining his severed head she makes a head pun. when the spaceship shes on is being attacked by unstoppable planet soul monsters she says choke me daddy. when she enlists the old dude shes been sucking up to to help harrow murder one of his friends and he starts making out with god and another one of his friends on the table of the dinner party they arranged specifically so he could do that shes like old people should be shot. in each of these instances and more ive had to stop reading to feel indescribable rage because NO you fucking suck at no point should i be actively reminding myself of that the hatred should just be there but i just have to excuse her antics for a scene because the unfortunate truth is that ianthe tridentarius is a bitch but shes also a comedy gold mine
