I got into Gideon the ninth blind knowing she was Butch, it was set in space and that griddlehark was (basically) canon. As much as I love them, their dynamic doesn’t scratch me as much as harrianthe!!! From the arm scene (with harrow taking genuine pleasure in building her arm) to harrow being vulnerable enough with Ianthe to share a bed with her— I don’t know. Their banter is just so fun to me!!!! This and they match each others freak in terms of evil. Also love how harrows a wee bit kinder (in her own weird way) to her, obviously this could be explained with harrow being lebotomized ofc.

And then there’s griddlehark, what I thought would be this cute butchfemme couple where I could (truthfully what I started the books for) slobber over Gideon. But then boom they have this evil power dynamic!!!! Obviously harrows more unsavory traits are explained throughout gtn (with her carrying guilt for the 200 babies and yadayada) but still!!! Despite me slightly disliking this aspect of their dynamic (not saying it’s not good, because it really really is I just don’t like mean girls my bad 🥀) they have SOOOO much going for them with how they play off eachother. Gideon being obviously freaked out (her magazines, constant jokes) vs harrow being this starve touched nun is actually so good. How their personalities contrast eachother, it’s just all sooo good!!!! Overall enjoy both of the, but harriathe.. you my heart.

I only really had this thought because I just got to page 434 of htn, and seeing how Gideon is just straight irritated with Ianthe because she very obviously has feeling for harrow is just saurrrrr good. Gideon stays riding for harrow, even in her own body 🥹🥹🥹🥹 god I love them

I’m a teen and just cut off my waist length locs I’ve had for 8 years, and am struggling to figure out what products to use for wash n gos and also just general hair care tips. Anything’s appreciated!!!
