JOMP BPC || August 8 || Wouldn’t Want To Fight Against: Gideon from The Locked Tomb by Tamysn Muir

How would you have asked Alecto the First to lie—how would you have persuaded that mad monster into even an unsophisticated con?

“Ninth was my name,” said the new arrival. “Ninth was my hearth, and my homeland. Here have I come at your calling. None may return from the River unless he be bidden by blood-rite; tell me, why have I been drawn here?”

The House of the Fifth always skinned itself over with such airs of civilization, with so many manners and niceties, but they were spirit-talkers, and speakers to the dead. And the dead were savage.

fifth-absorbs-the-ninth!au from abigail's perspective as she slowly realises that a) the ninth is being run by half a dozen pensioners and a traumatised preteen; b) the only other preteen on the planet is apparently both their indentured servant (bad) and the first preteen's emotional support chew toy (bad??); c) the cavalier primary is a great poet and a terrible cavalier (sidenote: abigail would fucking LOVE ortus did you sEE her husband??!?!); d) this place is haunted as FUCK including by a vengeful milf; and e) these children need a parent ASAP

cut to abi and magnus trying to surreptitiously adopt the two most feral children they've ever seen without spooking them and also ortus

Gideon! You really liked my Harrow design so here you have her cavalier with impractical belts and trying her best to play the part.

Also, if you're asking yourself about the random color variation... I just like to imagine some of the artificial light in Drearburh is black light and their paint glows. I think it's neat, you can see Harrow's here!
