‘Just deserts’

neither meed // nor guerdon

Get (or receive) one’s just deserts
— To receive what one deserves, especially an appropriate punishment.
“Those who cause great torment to others will ultimately get their just deserts.”


Comeuppance
— A punishment or fate that someone deserves.
“He got his comeuppance in the end; he treated her like a toy and now she’s dumped him.”

i’m “Thetis.” You’re “Jupiter.”
