Poor Ceres Always Gets the Short End of the Stick

I just finished Tamsyn Muir’s Nona, last month.
And of course, I’m now stuck along with the rest of the world waiting for Alecto to come along.¹ In the meanwhile I’m having fun with the rest of the world, dissecting the old books to pieces with various pieces of headcanon and wild theories, one of the popular ones being trying to find analogies between the houses of the books and our solar system

And then I ran into this little head exploder² …

Which made me remember this, on the Expanse³ …

And all I could then think of, was Aww, poor Ceres!
No matter what universe, dimension or time period, it’s always oppressed and languishing.
Here’s to me finding some piece of fiction, someday, where Ceres is all powerful!
