Summary
You have a not-especially-vested interest in not bringing up the Emperor’s dead Hands, those who betrayed him (at least half) and those he preferred to you (probably all, you anemic milk-slick, you eclipse-shadow of greatness). Your position is precarious. You are intimately goddamn aware of it.
But at least you have the same old advantages as always: in the deep and twisty vessel of you there is not one scruple nor drop of shame. And you are accustomed to being the overlooked sister.
--
John and Ianthe deal with the fact that his only remaining Lyctor is the one he never liked much. Maybe they can bond over the fact that they're both egotistical manipulators who lie like breathing? No?
Also, God sees ghosts. Ianthe doesn't help.

“The woman is in a peony-coloured slip. She is taking the pins out of her hair. She is JOY, an acidic thing, citric and citrine. Sour frowns, tangerine pulp hair, liable to irritate in excessive quantities.”
In advance of Dios Apate Major, the Saint of Patience scripts a seduction.

God prods, gently, “Even just starting with their physical description, and we can go from there.”
“Imagine,” you say, from somewhere outside your body, “the worst shade of orange you’ve ever seen in your life.”

"Have you ever slain a man, nephew?" his uncle had asked him, that last time they had spoken.
Reaching down, he splayed a hand over Daeron's cup and slid it across the table. That was unkind of him, Daeron would reflect later. It was the only cup he’d managed to sneak past his father.

For as long as Aegon can remember, his brother was a monster; what he can remember not, is a brief time before that, when the monster was his brother.

Summary
Nonagesimus, you owed me so big. You spat on my gift of a perfectly good soul, you trapped me in the back of your head like a bad dream to be forgotten and brought me back to fight disgusting bloody wasps, and then you got me stuck in a nightmare whirl of the worst fucking night of my life.
Which, you know. That’s really saying something.
(Or: Gideon is stuck in a time loop. She's not the only one.)

today i met the very first adult lesbian in my life and she had a grown up apartment and a cat and it made me sick with longing for what i never thought i could have. the same can be said about this 3 am fic, which made me so so viscerally upset just because of my resonation with the yearning. such expressive emotion and desire, the want for absolution. this made me want to cut tomatoes into little slices and drizzle them with cheese to eat. this made me want to actually grow and consume vegetables. this made me want to plant a tree just for the hope of living long enough go watch it grow tall. for the first time in a long while, i’m looking forward to the future.

“I’ve seen enough of Mike Wheeler to last me a lifetime,” Will snorts before he can help it.
