*that scene from the old Percy Jackson movie:* "This is a blog. This is a BLOG!!" | descended into Ianthe-posting | 20+ btw | hello fellow skaven

I just had the stupidest idea, I wrote up a bunch of stuff last semester (related to genetics and biology, I never got to use it tho :( But I enjoyed writing it) about adaptations and genetic illness. I am interested in biology, proteins and the such, combining the thing I think about at uni with the other thing I also think about at uni sounds fun. My last post about Ianthe and prion disease was really well received so I thought I might write some more in depth posts about necromancy and the Locked Tomb universe. The topics I planned on exploring are:

Dulcinea's Illness, what it might be based on symptoms and the treatments she received in GtN and how it might affected her as a person.

How Harrow might be capable of creating entire skeletons from one bone shard despite it breaking the laws of physics, presenting my theory that the River works as a buffer for necromancers both as a power source and as a temporary holding space for materials they use in their magic. This one always puzzled me and I might've been able to pin down a theory. (There will be a part about why Palamedes and Cam in one body was a problem and why I think they could not be "present" at the same time)

Ianthe's is an another character that is on my mind a lot. In this really cool post by @cemetegee there were a lot of cool ideas I want to explore further and introduce my idea about my other oldest headcanon: Ianthe's potencial albinism, related health issues and my favorite: how this relates to her and Corona's development in the womb. I floated this idea on that post and there was a really good question about why only Ianthe has it, I might be able to answer that.

I really want to make a post about Judith and Varun, because what's happening here is technically parasitism and I really want to get into specifics because I find the idea of it mind boggling.

How Blood of Eden mistreated Judith when she was fighting for her life and they probably broke (potencial) laws about prisoners of war, did the worst possible thing in (almost) every scenario and how terrifying it must've been for Judith to suffer through this, mostly conscious: a medical perspective. This one pissed me off when I read it because it was not even adressed in Nona the Ninth.

About the hole in Gideon/Kiriona's chest (the one that makes her aerodynamic lol) and how Gideon died exactly because it was fucked up and painful and enough a reason for her to be upset at Harrow.

The part in Nona the Ninth were Nona was falling apart on the Ninth, because the descriptions read as if she suffered a high dose of ionizing radiation and the idea that Alecto was able to inflict damage like this... It got me thinking what other abilites Alecto might have (she is the earth, after all).

I might make a post about the murder of Naberius Tern and why I am a bit sceptical that it was Ianthe that killed him (it's a wild ride and just a theory).

I want to explore the limits of lyctoral healing, because I find it interesting how some injuries can instantly heal but others don't. I will reread Harrow the Ninth, collect descriptions of lyctoral healing and compare them to actual data on how tissues like that in human bodies can and should heal. I might also theorize about how necromancy works on living tissue in general.

A post on Noodle the dog because he is a good boi.

I want to read fics where Alecto is acting like a wild animal going into heat and the person graced with her affections is thinking "can the soul of the earth even consent? Am I consenting? Why do I feel like I should run?" - meanwhile Alecto is chewing through the bars of her enclosure to act on ten thousand years of pent up sexual frustration.

And if there aren't any I will have to write it.

I need to cook up a crazy writing style and tell a story about cannibals in a giant soviet bunker complex going through lesbian breakups. Like everybody outside said bunker is just normal but the people inside have eaten enough amygdalas to unlock talking with interdimensional demons they threaten to unleash on the world if they are not left the fuck alone.

Like its an insanely fucked up psychological horror and it has vivid descriptions of people being vivisected and eaten but the focus is on a trans lesbian and her failgirlfriend having relationship troubles. There is a murder sideplot and it literally does not matter because the girls are fighting.

Too many boring romance novels, make them both women and write a "girls want to fit into society but the standards are impossible to meet" plot but the standard is on the spectrum ranging from casual to ranked cannibalism. Write the society they live in female dominated just because.

I am writing this for fun, let's see where it goes

so far I have

  1. they have magic and it's just radiation poisoning with extra steps

2. I decided to give the bunker-dwellers pronounced sexual dimorphism so the Stray being trans means she is considerably smaller than the other women in the story.

3. The story takes place in an underground apartment complex, meaning half of the story will be the main characters running up an down stairs.

4. The characters have permanent night vision so every time they are in an environment with bright lights they can't see shit for like 10 minutes. I just find the idea of writing the reverse of "characters stumbling in a dark place" trope but its a well lit corridor. The characters have also never seen the sun and they talk about it like its the scariest fucking thing ever.

5. There are parasitic worms that let people see each others memories. They are barely plot relevant. The magic powers do come from a bacteria which is plot relevant.

6. there is a murder mystery sideplot

The olm is a crazy animal because imagine being this

Bro stop, god accidentally pressed caps lock in the middle when creating you.

>get put in charge of mentoring my new sister lyctor

>ask god if the baby lyctor is creepy or wet

>he doesnt understand

>pull out illustrated diagram explaing what is creepy and what is wet

>he laughs and says “it’s a good lyctor mercymorn”

>meet the infant lyctor

>its both creepy and wet

The hungarian word "elnézést" is so funny because it literally translates to "please look away" and it's a form of apology.

Like you can bump into an old lady on the bus and say "I'm so ashamed please don't even look at this situation" with one word.

Having a polite form of "don't look at it bro" is just funny when I really think about it

Maria Skłodowska-Curie's notebooks are crazy once you think about it. They're so radioactive they have to be sealed in a lead box. Imagine a world where atomic theory is forgotten and a dude just goes "yea there's a book that details the secrets of the universe, the machinations of the creation of existence down to its barest essentials, but if you get close to it you fucking die. The more you read it the more your body slowly disassembles into mush." like wat excuse me
