I’ve seen a couple people saying that Alecto’s “kiss” was her attempting to show affection to Harrow but my interpretation was a little different.

Here’s the passage:

Then Alecto remembered the vow, and turned back upon the altar to face the second child and raised the sword with wrath in her heart, for they meant to bring destruction upon her. But when the black-eyed infant showed her countenance to Alecto, Alecto recalled her, for it was a face once dreamed in Alecto’s dream. And Alecto stayed the sword. The child rose and said, O corse of the Locked Tomb, I have loved thee all my life, with mine whole soul, and with mine whole strength. I would to God that I find grace in thy eyes. Destroy me according to thy word, for I love thee. Alecto was angry, and raised her up, and kissed her. The child did not cry out, though blood fell from her lips and tongue, and she was wounded sore. For Alecto knew not how to kiss, except such as it involved the mouth and teeth. And Alecto said to her, Why are you not appeased? That is how meat loves meat. The child was silent; but her blood was on Alecto’s lips, and through that blood Alecto was made to understand what it was, and was astonished exceedingly. Alecto put away wrath and said: Thou art the blood of the tomb- keeper.ALT

Alecto is angry. Alecto is angry at John, who killed and ate her, and at his disciples, who killed and ate each other. My interpretation of what she’s saying is this: “You love me? Well this is how your kind love each other.”

However, I’m not exactly sure how to parse “for Alecto knew not how…”, since it seems to imply that she would have kissed Harrow properly had she known how. To me it stands in contrast with how the kiss is presented as a direct continuation of Alecto’s anger: “Alecto was angry, and raised her up, and kissed her.”

Alecto also doesn’t seem to have much affection for Harrow at that point. She “stays the sword” for Harrow because she recognizes her from her dreams, but her anger awakens again when Harrow says she loves her. She only truly softens to her once she realizes she’s Anastasia’s descendant.

I will say that I think it would be cool conceptually if Alecto's love had some bite to it. Her children have been devouring each other for billions of years, after all. I’m just not sure that’s what’s happening here.

Would love to hear people’s thoughts!

hi. i feel like i got swirlied by this post. feel free to ignore the excerpt soup i'm about to ladle out, but i would like to posit some thoughts on a different interpretation of that passage, specifically in terms of nona/alecto's current connection to pyrrha.

i work in weed so believe me when i tell you cbd isnt bullshit but it only really works when paired with delta-9 thc and other cannabinoids. also delta-8 works but its not real weed lol. also if a concentrate is 99% thc then its 1% of the other stuff in the plant that makes the high better. if yr tolerance is high enough to dab regularly you r wasting yr money buying distillates just cos they test high. also sativa and indica arent real indicators of the effects those are subspecies of cannabis that are used as a shorthand way of referring to certain sets of terpenes and genetics. sometimes youll get a "sativa" phenotype of an indica thru breeding, which would still be an indica but with effects commonly associated with sativa. dont really have a conclusion to this but thank u for listening
