    Summary

    When the Reverend Daughter Harrowhark Nonagesimus dies transforming Cytherea’s blood cancer into bone cancer, she leaves three people behind. When Camilla Hect dies by her own blade to save her necromancer one last time, she leaves two people behind. And when Gideon Nav disappears in the aftermath of the battle, she leaves one Lyctor behind.

    Three weeks later, Palamedes Sextus wakes up alone in the Erebos’ medical wing with a sword, innumerable unanswered questions, blank spaces where certain memories ought to be, and a new title—Palamedes the First.

    Summary

    It's like a bad joke: two cavaliers (alive) and two necromancers (one dead) walk into a rebel faction of humanity, looking for a new life -- in every sense of the phrase.

    What they find is each other, and (in some cases) themselves.

    Summary

    The operation to the Ninth House has been a failure to all involved. Commander Wake failed to deliver her bomb, and Gideon the First failed to kill her.

    He did succeed, however, in stranding her broken shuttle.

    Alone, drifting without thrust or communications in deep space, Wake has dwindling options. There’s a limited supply of oxygen and food. There’s no way to tell if rescue is coming.

    And the cryochamber housing her undetonated bomb had to go and fucking break.

    “I think I know how I can save us.” You said.
    “Okay.” I’m a grown ass adult, I have died before. I can use more than one word sentences god dammit!
    “Metaphysical thalergic temporal reconvergence.”
    “What?” Nailed it.
    "Time travel Griddle. Time Travel.”

    A kind of time travel fix-it fic with hopefully a happy ending.

    Summary

    “I need you to marry me,” Harrow says, a propos of absolutely nothing that Gideon can see. And, uh, okay, this is not what childhood best frenemies say to each other upon discovering that both of their graduate programs have weird residence requirements.
    “What,” Gideon asks, “the fuck?”

    Summary

    Together was maybe a misnomer. Harrow stayed late to practice, and I lingered to watch the way she moved. The first time I stayed, I told myself it was just because her technical skill fascinated me. By the fourth late Tuesday, I’d stopped lying to myself.


    Gideon Nav swears off martial arts after her last concussion. Her coworker/on-and-off FWB Camilla Hect strongarms her into trying an adult gymnastics club at the local rec center. She only keeps going because the hot Saturday coach Abigail Pent always compliments her.
    But when Gideon wears the wrong shirt to class, wraps it around the bar, and accidentally rips it off, Harrow Nova (the other, scarier coach) has harsh words for her. Gideon goes home with a newfound erotic humiliation daydream of Harrow coaching her physical form in the sack.
    Camilla is completely unhelpful in processing any of this.


    I (25F) have a crush on my tiny, terrifying rec gymnastics coach (34F). AITA?

    Summary

    MILF Fest 2021 prompt (... written by me, this is a tiac-typical self-fill):

     

    Overworked junior lawyer Harrow gets told by her therapist to do one (1) recreational activity to start rebalancing her life. She duly signs up for a pottery class taught by Cytherea, an artist almost twice her age. At first Harrow resents Cytherea's airy, self-amused demeanor, then she becomes obsessively invested in her approval. Her wheelthrowing doesn't really improve though. Eventually Harrow realizes that she's having a long-overdue gay awakening, which was already transparent to Cytherea, and they make out on top of the kiln.

    Magnus Quinn isn't sure what to make of the cavalier from the Ninth, but he knows he's worried about her. She needs a decent meal and a kind word yesterday.

    Luckily enough, he has some degree of experience with providing both.

    Summary

    A very long time ago, she had desired a Cohort drop-ship, a front line to trample and spill blood on. A place to swing her sword, and appear sexily with a blaster. Mostly, she wanted to get the fuck away from the Ninth.
    Funny how that had worked out.
    The Ninth herself slipped in through the gap.
    Gideon considered now, I would kill anyone who tried to take me from her.

    Gideon and Harrow finally get called on to fight.

    Summary

    You had your body and I had mine, and it was a miracle. Your hands against my face were a miracle. The rest of your meat attached to your hands was a prayer answered and a promise broken, but we were flush and gasping and alive, and Harrow—I really thought you might’ve kissed me then.

    But I felt it happen. The way your breath suddenly stilled, and your body locked up beneath mine, remembering. How with splintering gentleness, you pushed me away.

    “I’m so sorry,” was the second thing you said upon waking.

    The first thing had been my name.

    Stranded in a safehouse on an Edenite moon, Gideon and Harrow try to put themselves back together.

    For Gideon living with Harrow had never been part of the plan. What do taxidermy and fitness have in common? Nothing, really. And yet in these small moments of complete disjointed communion theyve found something a bit like a home.

    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

    “Fret not, honeybun.” Gideon shook her red hair out of her eyes, belligerent. “I’m not totally sold on your whole skepticism thing.”
    “Well,” Harrow said, ignoring the nickname. She turned to the rest of the room, clearing her throat politely before addressing the empty air. “Ghosts, if you’re real, give us a sign. Make a noise. Move something. Send a shiver down our backs. Whisper softly into Nav’s left ear—”
    “I seriously fucking hate you.”

    (Casual sex and paranormal investigation. Not necessarily in that order.)
