Oh my. I need to stare at the wall for a while.
Some of my favourite lines/moments:
• Gideon calling Harrow her “midnight hagette”/“crepuscular queen”
• “I must no longer accept being a stranger to you.” (AAHHHH)
• “Did you behold me, Griddle?”
• Palamedes blowing up Cytherea (king)
• The entirety of the pool scene (the forehead kiss?? divine)
• “I cannot conceive of a universe without you in it.”
• “One flesh, one end.” (no words for this)
