Just cannot believe they did this in the actual show.

The scenes at the refuge school with Hot Sauce's gang are some of my favorite parts of Nona the Ninth. They are kind of the entire point of the book to me. We spend the book slowly learning what John did and simultaneously seeing the result. These children, who have been displaced for most of all of their short lives, trying their best to live and play and grow up while multiple existential threats bear down on them. Their lives are the cost of John's endless spiteful expansion. Them and billions of other children growing up hungry and traumatized. It's a cost John has never had to see. However much he might think he understands the consequences John has never sat with a girl covered in burn scars or offered a homeless 12 year old a turpentine soaked rag because he might be able to sell it, or watched a boy walk away knowing his entire family was likely going to die fighting for a freedom that might never come. But Nona has, and she loved them and was loved by them. And now at least some part of Alecto remembers those children and I don't know exactly what that's going to mean but I know it will mean something.

any god emperor born after 1993 can't actually resurrect people... all they know is cryo freeze, play on their tablet, hold grudge, be bisexual, eat peanuts and lie

Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

Our Journey So Far

When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.

But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.

Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

With all my love and gratitude,

Mosab and Family ❤️

As of 3/21/2025, the campaign is at $6,040 out of $90,000. It was last donated to 4 hours ago as I write this.

yeah the bone arm scene is sex yeah the lyctoral process is marrige vows yeah Gideon kissed Harrow on the forehead in the pool etc etc. we as a society need to pay more attention to the cumshot in HtN chapter 4

"blood sprayed promiscuously against your face" "a hot, salty thickness against your lips" "the world rocked" "your meat was left bare and vulnerable" "a hot, shameless gush of it" "your nerves screaming and shaking" like. OKAY

pyrrha will go insane for love at the drop of a hat first she dies for her man not even out of necessity just because it would make him immortal then after that she begs for a kiss from the hot girl who is at that moment trying to kill her THEN attempts to elope to a distant moon with her situationships. No one is doing it like her . Because why would they

For someone named (among other things) for phyrrhic victory, it checks out. :_(

I hope she gets something nice in Alecto. I think she might, given Pyrrha is also the first woman to begin repopulating the Earth after the Greek flood myth.

Straight people and queer people who don't Love Women really do consume TLT differently

Like once I met a TLT fan in the wild and was like "Yeah Ianthe is my favorite girl, she's so nasty and deranged~~" and this girl was like "that's,,a bit much,,," and looked soooo weirded out

Like oh I'm sorry i thought this was the fandom where we appreciate fucked up and twisted women??? my bad-

Every other necromancer: "Hey, what the fuck happened to Naberius?"

Suspiciously lyctor shaped Ianthe:

You know for as much as the locked tomb is about what we leave behind when we die, in literal and metaphysical and metaphorical terms, it fucks me up really bad how every boe member on new rho thinks of Pyrrha as nothing but the person who killed Wake and regards her grief and heartbreak as some kind of sick perversion because obviously their glorious leader would never have felt anything but hatred and revulsion for a zombie. Pyrrha doesn't even really bother to correct them, she seems to think they must be right. Commander Wake exists in everyone's memory as cold and hard and righteous and utterly devoted to her cause. Pyrrha loved her, but Pyrrha also seems to think of herself as someone doomed to fall in love with people who will never love her as much as they love self-sacrifice. But we as the audience get to see a layer beyond that, we get to see the parts of her that are too contradictory to make it into the legend, we know Harrowhark is alive because Wake even in her most monstrous and rage-filled aspect could not bring herself to intrude on a place where Pyrrha had once lived and worked and felt safe.

This is interesting—

But also, Pyrrha's relationship with BoE is weird because, like.

She remembers. Pyrrha's the only person besides John who's confirmed to actually remember pre-Res Earth to some degree.

I need to know how she feels. What she remembers. Does she remember John and what happened at the facility? Did she use to know who Alecto was? Has she been telling Palamedes and Camilla about pre-Res Earth and the origin of John? Do they know, by the time of Nona, about what Earth used to be? Is what (besides the solar flare) why they convinced the Sixth to secede?

I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.

let’s dance in the light of the god killer!

nona the ninth / the unwanted guest

i'm just saying Twilight canonically exists

you guys ever think about how "alecto the ninth" being a title in-universe would mean alecto is the sworn cavalier primary of the ninth house? alecto, who canonically swore herself to anastasia's service?
