    Summary

    Harrowhark Nonagesimus knelt in the Ninth House library and recited the confessional for the sixth time in a row. Usually she recited it in groups of three, three times daily, for a total of nine, but she was about to commit a sin and figured she ought to recite it an extra nine times. Six recitations in, though, and she found the words meant so little to her that she wasn’t sure she should’ve bothered. She didn’t feel guilty about this sin, not really. Certainly not the way she felt guilty about everything else.
    ~~~~
    In which Harrow opens a locked door (no, not that one), processes what it means to be a product of mass death, and gets into a lot of arguments.

    Summary

    Years before the events of Gideon the Ninth, the Ninth House produced another light inside its gloomy walls.

    Two men, and a million pounds of expectation weighing them down. Crux loved him, and now he's dead. A character study.

    Summary

    Harrowhark Nonagesimus, the one and only surviving child of the Duke of Drearburh, played the part of heiress quite well. In any appearance she made in public (although there were not very many), she was as proper as they come, a true testament to the excellence of the Nonagesimus lineage, a credit to her family line. It is what she must be, and therefore, it is what she was. A perfect daughter, and soon to be a perfect bride.

    Though, if we’re being completely transparent, bride is not at all what Harrowhark wished to be.

    Summary

    “Do you really think you can command me, child?” Priamhark laughed a cold, hollow laugh. It sounded like scraping metal against Nova’s ears. “You aren’t worth the whip, girl. Chastisement of the flesh no longer prevents your abhorrent claims of a title that is not yours to claim. You are the lowliest among us.”

    ---

    Harrow Nova faces a beast greater than the whip: becoming a human container for growing bone eggs. For the prompt, "Oviposition/Egg-laying."

    Summary

    Gideon Nav stood in the rain. The scratchy black suit top felt too constricting; she wished she could have had it tailored to accommodate her arms better. There just wasn’t enough time. She shifted the burgundy umbrella to her off hand, fidgeting with the hem of her jacket as the rain pattered against the vinyl and dripped around her.

    It seemed fitting; like the sky was crying all the tears she couldn’t bring herself to produce. She didn’t pay attention to the priest’s words. She rarely did; a habit that earned her endless lectures in her childhood. Instead, her gaze drifted to the closed casket beneath the tarp, ready to be lowered into the grave below. It didn’t seem right. She always assumed her mentor would simply fade into the house itself someday; to watch over the next generation of kids as a gargoyle statue in the foyer. Somehow, she never pictured death to feel so final.

    Summary

    When Reverend Daughter woke up she woke up slowly. This in itself was unusual as she most often woke screaming. Most unusual however, were the two ghosts sitting on either side of her, in front of the dangling bodies of her parents.

    Summary

    The invitation to the House of the First is delayed until the second year of the new myriad (we can blame Mercymorn). Harrow Nova comes of age and her quest to become cavalier primary is put on hold for the fulfillment of a very different sort of duty to her House. When the Necrolord Prime’s call comes the Reverend Daughter and her would-be cavalier will need to decide where their priorities lie.

    Summary

    Harrow closed her eyes and buried her face in Gideon’s neck. “I wish I had memories like that with my parents. A good day was when they didn’t break one of my fingers to teach me how to fix it myself.”

     

    Gideon gently grabbed one of Harrow’s hands and traced it, “You don’t have to go back. You’re out. There’s absolutely nothing forcing you to go.”

     

    Harrow pushed away and laid flat on her back, eyes closed tightly. “That just…isn’t an option. I have to go back and help them.” She laughed sardonically, “I’ll probably be the last one to die there and then the entire planet will crumble because there isn’t anyone left to fix anything anymore.”

    Or

    Harrow had left for the Cohort to help her house and instead found something better.

    Summary

    “If I cannot be the adept I was born to be, allow me to defend my homeland by the sword and chain. It would be my greatest honor.”

    “An honor that you still do not deserve,” Priamhark pursed his lips, coal black eyes unreadable behind a mask of contempt. “Prove yourself worthy.”

    Summary

    Harrowhark is the child of the Reverend and his wife. She's overall a good kid, but sometimes she makes mistakes. When she does...

    Summary

    Harrowhark claimed not to think of Griddle. Whenever that proved a lie, she let frustration dig in like cuffs tighter than the one blistering Griddle's ankle. Still, each morning she as brushed her teeth, she anticipated using them to trade scowls and bites with Drearburh’s only other child.

    What if Gideon didn't tattle about Harrow entering the Tomb? What if Priamhark's and Pelleamena's survival made Harrow’s and Gideon’s lives much worse?

    What if Harrow couldn't handle when this led God to take Gideon away from her?

    Summary

    In the myriadic year of our Lord—the ten thousandth year of the King Undying, the Lord of the Sharpest Edge!—Harrow Nova challenged the cavalier of the Ninth for his title.

    (or: Harrow Nova AU. After the Lyctor Summons specifically names Ortus Nigenad as the one who will accompany the Reverend Daughter to the House of the First, Harrow takes matters into her own hands. Everything goes wrong from there. Happy whumptober!)

    Summary

    Fragments of Gideon and Harrow's interactions growing up together. As canon compliant as I could make it. Neither of those two girls were born hurt or bitter, Harrow wasn't cruel by default. So there had to be a time when they didn't try to kill each other, and a time when this changed.
