D E A R E S T – an Emma fanfic

I wrote a fic for the Jane Austen fanwork event @janeuary-month! It's a genderflipped Emma Woodhouse/George Knightley fic featuring puzzles. It was written for Day 1: Letters and Day 20: Dearest (though it arguably also fits Day 9: Tea and coffee, and Day 16: Gossip).

Read it here!

Many thanks to @lovefool-mp3 for coming up with this interpretation of the "Letters" prompt and helping me brainstorm this silly idea.

A random assortment of Locked Tomb theories. I don't believe in all of them, but it's fun to speculate. Some of these might have been posted before by someone else, I don't super keep up with the fandom. If so, I'm sorry.

If anyone wants me to elaborate on any of these, please just ask!

Here were go:

Anastasia Lyctor chomped Alecto to "shut her down", and is thus her tomb as much as her tomb keeper, and it's her body Harrow saw (extra points for "Alecto's body is buried at Canaan House, powering it" – which, to be clear, I did not come up with myself)

Harrow had older, non-necromantic, siblings who died with the other Ninth House kids (extra bonus points for "Nona is one of Harrow's siblings")

Harrow stole Gideon's godly necromancy in the interval when Gideon was dead as a toddler

Corona and Ianthe have a shared plan to overthrow God

Gideon and Harrow were friends as kids, Harrow lobotomised Gideon to make her forget, after they broke into the tomb

Harrow and Palamedes used to secretly correspond, just like he corresponded with Dulcinea

Harrow knew about Gideon being the child of God, or at the very least that she's immortal, and thinks Gideon is stupid for not having figured it out herself

The people of the Ninth know that Harrow's parents are dead and are just playing along, like you do with a beloved child

Lastly, less of a theory, more of an inference that I felt the need to share: If Nona is Alecto, then the experiences Nona is unconsciously referencing in the "that's how people look at you when they want to see you naked and it's a sex thing" scene are probably experiences she had with John, judging by how creepy he is about her. Ew.

I have two thoughts/theories about this:

Alecto is the Earth's 'Resurrection' Beast, except she's more like the beasts Harrow and the others create in that she isn't linked to a resurrection, just to a death – the death of the Earth. Her body, on the other hand, is the body of someone John loved (maybe someone who, just like the Earth, was sick?), which is why he's so weird about her. (Or maybe he just hung out with her long enough to catch feelings even though he knew she was a planet.)

The damnable thing that generates enough energy to enact the Resurrection is John killing the sun (and thereby the solar system, creating the Resurrection Beasts) and turning it thanergenic. (Speaking of, is there a Resurrection Beast for the sun itself?)

ok so the whole first generation of Lyctors were people John knew pre-Resurrection. they were his coworkers in the cryo lab. and Alecto was present before the Resurrection.

Earth died, first slowly (climate change that inspired the cryo project and the wealthy men's spaceships), and then all at once (nuclear chain reaction, leaving ash in the air as they sit on the beach eating meat and drinking seawater, probably thinking they would die). So there can still be an Earth RB, potentially.

But I'm less convinced now that John caused the death of the solar system.
