    'til the cows come home by

    Fandoms: The Locked Tomb Series | Gideon the Ninth Series - Tamsyn Muir  

    06 Aug 2023

    Tags
    Summary

    "A gigantic snout loomed over Gideon. There was a rancid exhalation of air, and a purple tongue licked her slimily from chin to eyebrows.
    'Harrow!' Gideon yelped. 'What the fuck?!'
    'God is dead,' Harrowhark intoned, 'And the lady of the tomb has blessed us.'"

    Or, Gideon and Harrow figure out how to take care of eighty-two cows, and themselves, in that order.

    This fic is part of TLT Big Resurrection Event 2023!

    Summary

    “Gideon. What was it, what happened?”
    At that name, that goddamn name, Kiriona Gaia met Harrow’s eyes, for the first time since Canaan house, since they were just the Reverend Daughter Harrowhark Nonagesimus and Gideon the Ninth.
    “She kissed me,” Kiriona said, quietly. “She kissed me and I knew right then she wasn’t you.”

    ***
    Post-Nona, post-Griddlehark-reunion. Harrow can’t understand why Gideon is being cold to her. Kiriona just wants to be out of this room.

    If you're doing it right you'll break their ribs by for Trialia

    Fandoms: The Locked Tomb Trilogy | Gideon the Ninth Series - Tamsyn Muir  

    17 Dec 2020

    Tags
    Summary

    "How do you know Nonagesimus has gone somewhere dangerous?" asked Isaac. "Have you wired some kind of alert system?"

    "It's, uh. It's on the schedule," said Gideon. "I just... forgot. Because of the bread."

    Nobody was convinced by this, least of all Gideon.

    "It's a Ninth House thing," Gideon went on, backing away with increasing desperation. This was a slightly more plausible explanation, if only because nobody wanted to look too closely at what fell under the awful skeletal-ribbed and rotting umbrella of Ninth House things. "Gotta go—!" And she was out the door, gone.

    But it wasn't a Ninth House thing, except inasmuch as it was happening to the only two representatives of the noble and decrepit Ninth House on this quite literally godforsaken rock. Gideon knew Harrow had gone somewhere dangerous—knew that Harrow was back in the lab where they had only just completed a horrible trial—because she could see it, clear as day: an awful overlay on her vision of that terrible dangerous room and a pair of terrible dangerous hands drawing some kind of ward next to the plinth.

    The hands were definitely Harrow's.

    This was definitely a problem.

    Summary

    Immy talked in their sleep.

    It was okay, Vee had insisted. No one minded it much.

    Kip disputed that fact, but Vee told him to shut up.

    She’d grown used to it. Everyone had. It became just as routine as anything else. She would wake up to Immy rambling some nonsense, then go back to sleep. When something unusual happened on a regular basis, it simply became usual.

    That was, until Immy started working in their sleep.

    Summary

    We can’t let him find Beep. Even if it doesn’t get us in trouble, we’ll still lose them. Immy will lose them. The very thought of how Immy might react to their tiny companion being taken from them made Vee’s heart break. I can’t let that happen.

    So, when Xancis asked Vee to tell him more about Immy, she all but jumped at the chance. Anything to keep him distracted.

    Tags
    Summary

    As the weeks went by, Immy noticed something interesting about Beep. The bouncy little alien had a tendency to mimic Immy’s facial expressions and actions to the best of their ability. Immy had theorised that this was Beep’s way of learning how to interact with their surroundings.

    This got Immy thinking: Could I teach them to speak?

    Summary

    “I… You… weren’t supposed to hear me say that.” They laughed lamely. Vee wilted the smallest bit, and it broke Immy’s heart. They jumped to clarify. “Not-Not that I didn’t mean it! I-I did, I just… I dunno, I don’t think… God, I’m fu-I mean, messing all of this up.” It wasn’t that they didn’t want to swear, but doing so would likely make what she said harder for Vee to understand due to the translator’s built-in censors. “I’m sorry.”

    “Immy, you don’t have anything to be sorry for.” Vee reached to take their hand. “It’s okay. I… I’m glad you told me. I’m glad I got to hear it.” She scooted her beanbag closer to Immy, so that their legs rested against the shirts that made up the chair.

    “Immy, I love you too.”

    Summary

    Interest piqued, Cass pulls out the chair in front of him, sitting down. “Why don’t you let her paint yours?”

    Well, now he just looks uncomfortable, squirming under her stare. “It’s not really manly, right? I mean, not that I care, but others do.”

    “Why?”

    “Aw, jeez.” He pushes his bowl away from him, running a hand through his hair. “I don’t know, Cass. Because every guy is a toxic douche? I don’t really know what kind of answer you want from me.”

    She knows he doesn’t mean that literally, but that doesn’t abate her frustration at being treated as too ignorant to learn. “Is this similar to people assuming I can’t fight because I’m a girl?”

    “Yeah,” Tim says. “Somethin’ like that. I don’t know how, like, familiar you are with this kinda stuff, but you’ve probably seen enough TV so—you know how guys there are always trying to prove themselves? Just total ‘don’t be such a girl’ energy? It’s like that.”

    Summary

    She would know her anywhere, be it in dreams, a passerby, a story. It’s not a ghost. Bright-eyed, sun-kissed, and life-worn, she’s different in all the ways Maomao thought she would be after all these years, in all the ways she hoped she would be despite the tragedy that seemed set in stone for her and hers.

    Quietly, as though an earnest prayer, unspoken but felt all the same: Shisui.

    Or: Ten years after Shisui leaves her, Maomao finds herself in a nameless village, chasing the trail of a ghost.

    Summary

    Maybe the little things, the soft moments, something as gentle as sitting on a rotten bench so far away, with her only friend, sharing some drink she didn’t know the name of but quite liked, staring at the pretty scene of explosions of colours and light, loud but not threatening – maybe that was what made it worth it. Maybe the world could be kind.

    OR

    A self-indulgent short and sweet one-shot. The player found a way to break the cycle and decided to take the Nightmare with him despite everything. They grow closer. And watch the fireworks together.

    Please keep in mind my native language isn't english and I am mostly self-taught! Thank you!

    Summary

    Quiet stared at the man, well, bird that he had only seen once. He remembers staring at the shards of glass in the Long Quiet and wishing he could do something for him, even if The Narrator had assured him that it didn't hurt. To watch him fade away hurt Quiet, even if he had been the one to lock them both away in the construct. He still had so many questions for him, ones that he thought he would never be able to ask because the one person who would truly know was gone.
