The Sixth House | Book One

Camilla Hect | Palamedes Sextus

Me, reading GTN for the first time, biased for the Gideon POV narration: why everyone is so mean to Gideon why arent they befriending her when she is so cool???

Gideon most of the book:

"Gonna spend my time not talking and standing in the shadows full in black"

Palamedes Sextus and Camilla Hect of the Sixth House 📘💀🗡

(psst, the timelapse of this can be see on my patreon!)

“Tell me how to do it, and I’ll do it.”

been having a grand old time puzzling out Nona the Ninth and rereading the whole Locked Tomb series. here’s some warm and cool color variants:

Camilla could fight with pretty much anything, and especially knives – she wouldn’t do the marble trick with her knife because she would just say, “What did it do to me?”

preliminary New Rho (Nona the Ninth) Cam WIP outfit test, before jacket/colored contacts/MORE KNIVES/makeup/fine-tuning some details and other accessories. also debating darkening the wig.

but excited to start to see an idea of the finish line!

Day 3: A cool skull

it’s them…..

I can't stop thinking about that line in Dr Sex where Palamedes wanted to invite an expert from the ninth house to help them with the cleaning skeletons, but couldn't get very far with that request; and how soon enough the only 'expert' would have been Harrow and I just... Picture it. 10-year-old Harrow and 11-year-old Gideon going to the Sixth, Harrow dealing with colored skeletons with Palamedes' help like a fun puzzle, Gideon sword-fighting with Camilla; both of them making friends, being loved. What could it have meant to them. For them.

How Dunmer getting out of lava

v.s. how I, the non-Dunmer getting out of lava

"You were the chosen one! It was said that you would purge the n'wah, not join them!"

"I HATE YOU!"

"You were my brother, Nerevar. I loved you."

This question is about what you think is the case in canon, not what you like to see in fandom.

SUN IN THE 6th HOUSE: Observations

Some of the hardest working people you’ll ever meet will have this placement. Their sense of identity is tied to service, they feel an inherent need to get stuff done. Unlike other people, these types are set aglow when caught up within a busy schedule. They have a lot of energy, almost too much, and they need a proper outlet. They’re at their best when settled into a healthy routine. It can be tricky for them to work in time for relaxation or leisure, but they should try to make this more of a priority. Working overtime at the office every day will eventually catch up with them. And since their health is directly linked to their routines, this may leave them feeling depleted or sick. Oftentimes, Sun sixth housers will try to push through. But, ignoring the needs of their tired body will lead to a collapse similar to that of a dead star. This shouldn’t be too much of an issue though. People with this placement intuitively understand that if they're tired they won't be as productive as they want to be. Sun sixth housers also hold themselves to high standards when working, and their self-image may become damaged if they receive criticism. They take negative comments towards their work to heart. A need to be respected by their employers is present here. Expecting admiration can lead to hurt feelings but it also leads to an excellent sense of work ethic. Being lazy will only bring them negative attention, and this is the last thing they want. They take duty and service very seriously. Co-workers know they can depend upon people with this placement, and they naturally gravitate towards them. They always help without complaint and uplift the atmosphere of their work place through their positive attitude. Sun sixth housers remain charismatic under pressure and aren’t likely to have emotional outbursts at work. This attitude shoots them up into leadership positions. They’re always considered to be an obvious candidate and rarely face competition for promotions. Outside of work, people still look up to them for their healthy habits. Others wonder how they can take care of themselves with such ease. As children, it never took much convincing to get them to eat vegetables. They’re naturally drawn to a healthier lifestyle and it's never been something they’ve had to put too much thought into. This is very much an underrated placement.
