Drautos getting jealous of his S/O and cor sparing. I’ve always loved the thought that cor gets a little too close and Titus has to try and keep his composure
Damn, I love it! Titus + jealousness is great combination for trouble XD Again S/O is gender neutral for everyone to enjoy!
Obvi you´re part of the Kingglaive, like third in command (Like If Titus is out and Luche is busy, you´re the only hope XD )
For clarification you and Titus are a thing, but not officially (you could be targeted, etc)
so like every week Cor came to spar and teach everyone some new moves (and basically beat their asses)
during this session you were Cor´s training dummy partner
He was manhandling you like a pro, but you fighted back fiercely not giving up easily
Cor managed to pin you down, body to body " Okay, marshal. You´ve got me, now will you let this little glaive go?" "Hmm, I don´t know maybe I should keep you there?" you flushed red.
OHHHH BOYYY, and who witnessed this whole exchange with stone face? TITUS
This man has under his belt nearly 30 years of battle experience and espionage. And yet his friend manage to get under his skin with how flirty he is with you, his S/O
Titus may look cool and unbothered, but LET ME TELL YOU! HE IS FUCKING NOT!!
He´s pissed beyond belief! Titus wants to scoop you in his arms and brings you into his office and show you, who you belong to
But nooo, Titus is too composed to do something like that, too clever to feed this flame that consumes him
instead he requested a spar with Cor, something about Cor´s old bones and that he was almost taken down by you. Yep, Titus taunted him.
It was glorious fight! And extremely brutal, to be honest. Titus really went all out on Cor like behemoth.
“ Y/L/N meet me in 30 minut in my office. We need to discuss those documents.”
You were in fact not discussing documents, but your mouths did some “talking” 😏

I just remembered that up until 5th grade, all of the sports teams I was in weren't separated by gender. I played basketball and baseball with boys. And we did just fine.
It wasn't until 6th grade when they segregated it by gender. It didn't make sense to me. I was now in softball because of baseball, because "softball is for girls" and "baseball is for boys" (which confused me bc my dad was on an adult softball team).
Now, my brother's all-male team didn't win a single game. My all-girls team won every single one.
They presented the boys' team with this HUGE trophy, and if you wanted replicas of it, they were $30 each.
My team was presented with a very small trophy. Extras were $5.
That's when I decided gender-segregated sports were bullshit.

So long as the political and economic system remains intact, voter enfranchisement, though perhaps resisted by overt white supremacists, is still welcomed so long as nothing about the overall political arrangement fundamentally changes. The facade of political equality can occur under violent occupation, but liberation cannot be found in the occupier’s ballot box. In the context of settler colonialism voting is the “civic duty” of maintaining our own oppression. It is intrinsically bound to a strategy of extinguishing our cultural identities and autonomy.
[...]
Since we cannot expect those selected to rule in this system to make decisions that benefit our lands and peoples, we have to do it ourselves. Direct action, or the unmediated expression of individual or collective desire, has always been the most effective means by which we change the conditions of our communities.
What do we get out of voting that we cannot directly provide for ourselves and our people? What ways can we organize and make decisions that are in harmony with our diverse lifeways? What ways can the immense amount of material resources and energy focused on persuading people to vote be redirected into services and support that we actually need? What ways can we direct our energy, individually and collectively, into efforts that have immediate impact in our lives and the lives of those around us?
This is not only a moral but a practical position and so we embrace our contradictions. We’re not rallying for a perfect prescription for “decolonization” or a multitude of Indigenous Nationalisms, but for a great undoing of the settler colonial project that comprises the United States of America so that we may restore healthy and just relations with Mother Earth and all her beings. Our tendency is towards autonomous anti-colonial struggles that intervene and attack the critical infrastructure that the U.S. and its institutions rest on. Interestingly enough, these are the areas of our homelands under greatest threat by resource colonialism. This is where the system is most prone to rupture, it’s the fragility of colonial power. Our enemies are only as powerful as the infrastructure that sustains them. The brutal result of forced assimilation is that we know our enemies better than they know themselves. What strategies and actions can we devise to make it impossible for this system to govern on stolen land?
We aren’t advocating for a state-based solution, redwashed European politic, or some other colonial fantasy of “utopia.” In our rejection of the abstraction of settler colonialism, we don’t aim to seize colonial state power but to abolish it.
We seek nothing but total liberation.

I think the best possible time travel fic would be to slingshot Harrow from the end of Harrow the Ninth back to the beginning of Gideon the Ninth. Highest hilarity potential, highest angst potential, highest pining potential
Things Harrow knows now that she didn't before:
Who Alecto was
The names of God and his lyctors
The secret of lyctorhood
That the lyctor trials are a death trap
Gideon could be easily persuaded to die for her
Gideon dying for her is the worst thing possible
She would do almost anything to prevent Gideon from dying
Gideon's sword is haunted by a very angry and oddly familiar-looking woman who bears a remarkable resemblance to Gideon
Things Harrow still doesn't know:
What Alecto is
Gideon's parentage
Jackshit about BOE
Mercy and Augustine are both traitors
Things Harrow knew then and still knows now:
Gideon—this Gideon here and now—hates her
She owes a debt of two hundred lives and a future to the Ninth
The survival of the Ninth depends on her becoming a lyctor
