Posts referring to Harrowhark goddamn Nonagesimus as a “femme” because they want to contrast her with Gideon’s butchness are so funny TBH. That woman has never learnt how to do any make-up except her religiously-mandated stupid skulls in her whole life. She only ever dresses in her fucking nun gear, even when the situation does not require it or even when it’s explicitly inapproppriate, and she often doesn’t even change it often enough because she’s an obsessive workaholic with depressive tendencies. She gets a feminizing make-over scene from Ianthe once and it manages to make her more uncomfortable than usual in a book that’s in its entirety just one astronomically-sized mental breakdown she’s having. A church goblin is what she is. A dirty little creature living in the attic of a graveyard chapel and feeding on dust. A humansona of motherfucking Gollum. The enemy number one on the Fashion Police first-priority hit list. Not even your standard disaster lesbian, but a full-on lesbian disaster. She wouldn’t know “femme” if it slithered through her back and bit her in the ass. “FEMME”.
