But do Antis ever consider that Businesses never give a damn to put their fav red head in their product or articles is because their fav is just not that important and not the main characters of acotar?
The hate towards Elain is awfully personal. It had stop being cristicism for her action a long time ago and become more about who she is as a character. They could use back handed compliment in a decorative powerpoint slide but it will never mask that hidden deep and personal hate of her existence in the story. All her contribution and growth often, either being discredited or deem as irrelevant. The need to degrade her and put her dignity through the mud just because a manās feeling got hurt and for the fact that sheās a THREAT to their ship.
Noticed that antis often have this wishful thinking of Elain toā¦..
Beg on her knees for Lucien
Be this aggresive jealous person and willing to attack gwyn over Azrielās affection??
Betray her family for no concrete reasons
Nesta/Azriel/IC will come for Elain for hurting Gwyn
be this hateful person when the canon had describe her to be one of the kindest people
the womb theory. What a great contribution to feminism holy shit.
they know its unlikely for sjm to write these but still, āWoUldNt iT bE fUn iF It dOEs haPPenā š
They never denied those takes being misogynistic either, instead they put it under the āSheās not a real personā or āThis will make her more interesting and complexā umbrella. Sure sure
The difference between Mor and Elain is that Elain reciprocate Azrielās feeling. So, they couldnt stop at āI dont ship Elain and Azrielā. Thatās not enough to legitimise gwynriel and to disqualify Elain as Azrielās ālove interestā.
To uplift Gwyn, Elain need to be this loser, pathetic and unlikable woman. And often than not, they will put Gwyn in the victim position and Elain as the perpetrator.
Potraying Elain as this Evil and Jealous woman, served their preferred shipās narrative. They need to counter attack the traits Sjm had wrote for Elain, to deem her as an unworthy lover. At best she can only be Azrielās āhookup materialā.
They need this so much in order for their ship to appear superior because atm they know the only way for Azriel to āchooseā gwyn is for him to āunchooseā Elain.
Not in a way that elainās the girl who got away and therefore Az go with gwyn. They need gwyn to be the first choice uncontested. So how can they achieved that??? Aha u guess itā¦
Loser, pathetic and unlikable Elain. Dismissed after the first hookup no less.
Azriel found out Elainās a seer when Lucien was also in the room after that Madja advice got me giggle gaggle like how can yall defend this ship by their mating bond when the bond is so weak ass
Like if e/ucien destined to be endgame then this is the āØPERFECT PERFECT PERFECT āØreason or starter for Lucien to be close to Elain. To gain her trust. Elain has no choice but confide to Lucien abt her lucid dreams see if he could help. Search for the queen together, go to the human lands out of the NC, bond with the BOE organically, search for lucienās mystery parentage, seer + trove + Koschei = lucien is now tied to the main plot, mating ceremony, Have BABIES!!!!! happily ever afterš
BUT NO!!!
He just sat there and let Az do the jobš¤£š¤£š¤£
Lucien silently slid into one of the chairs, before the window, that metal eye whirring as it roved over my sister.
It made sense, I supposed, that Azriel alone had listened to her. The male who heard things others could not ā¦ Perhaps he, too, had suffered as Elain had before he understood what gift he possessed.
Seriously theres no need for Azriel in the mix for the reluctant mate trope to happen.
Azriel ALONE had listened to her. Only Az. Not Azriel and Lucien. Yk throw the mating bond some bone to chew on. Anything to know that yes!! thats why Lucien is meant for Elain. This is it.
Like how can antis fault Elriels to ship Elain and Azriel??? Like how?? Literally why would I ship E/ucien? whats the ooohhhh aaahhh element from this ship other than the fact that theyre mates???
Imagine self proclaimed as āPro Elain stanā but unite with a group whom openly hate Elain. Its obvious that they are comfortable seeing Elain getting hate as long as it means their ship get some validation.
Elriels are alone in this fight but at least we dont lick asses like some people. We dont need the other group or to join force coz for us, the canon are enough.
They need each otherās support to fight elriels but like babes yall dont even like each otherš
Imagine self proclaimed as āPro Elain stanā but unite with a group whom openly hate Elain. Its obvious that they are comfortable seeing Elain getting hate as long as it means their ship get some validation.
Azriel wanted to return or give away the necklace because it was causing him a lot of emotional pain, stress and discomfort,
which means that he never wants to see that necklace again,
and the fact that he considered giving it to Gwyn or whoever (knowing she could wear it) means that he doesn't want or expect to see Gwyn that much on a daily basis.
I'm not saying it. Azriel is showing it. I'm just reading his actions.
In ACOFAS, Sjm hinted that Emerie and Nesta were going to become friends.
There are 0 hints that Elain is going to have a friendship with Jurian, Vassa or Eris.
Instead, Mass chose to remind us in acosf that Elain has made two friends by herself. Together they form a female-centric trio. Just like the Valkryies. Just like Amren/Mor and Feyre.
We donāt know much about the twins, just like we didnāt know much about Emerie. The point of Elains book, is to also flesh out Nuala and Cerrideweansā characters like how acosf fleshed out Emerie and Gwyn. We will learn more about the twins in Elains book because theyāve become important to HER character.
There was no reason for Sjm to make them friends if she was planning on dropping that friendship. She could have stated elain is friendly with the twins but instead made their friendship deeper.
Nuala and Cerr are Elainsā friends. In Elains book, this is the friendship we will explore.
Its rlly not hard to comprehend the idea that we will learn and know more about the twins in Elains book. This refusal to accept that idea is telling how eluciens have never prioritised Elain and the relationships she has made. They only care about fitting her into Luciens life.
Anyways, no matter how much they deny it and downplay Elains friendship with the twins, its meaningless because Mass herself made that friendship canon and relevant. And the twinsā fit into Sjmsā pattern of 3-women trios whilst the elucien-version of Elains friends donāt. And we all know how much Mass loves her patterns š¤
Before there was "blatant, unrestricted touching", Elain and Azriel shared many quiet moments alone, walking through the gardens or sitting together in the peace and quiet of nature. Touch is not something Azriel is comfortable with many people, he hides his hands and avoids touching others for fear of seeing their disgust at his scars. However, from the very beginning of their 2.5 years of friendship, Elain never balked from him or his touch. That first day in the Townhouse, when he offered her his arm to show her the garden, Elain took it, looked at his hands and called them beautiful. From that moment on, Azriel kept reaching out, taking every opportunity to seek her touch.
This beautiful, Regency era inspired piece was created by talented artist pinkykei.art (in) who captured the essence of that blooming attraction and tenderness between Elain and Azriel. Thank you for bringing to life the scene stuck in my head.
Noticed its always Gwynriels who like this kind of plot. Sooooo high school. Never seen Elriels said Gwyn will fought Elain over a necklace because for us, Gwyn is not an obstacle for elriels to happen. Elucienās bond is. Gwyn could exist as she is now and elriel could still happen.
Deep down they know that not in a million years would sjm ever write anything like that.
If for some reason, gwynriel do become endgame, they will forever be eclipsed by all canon Elriel moments.
That why gwynriel need these kind of plot to try to delegitimize all Elriels scene. In their heads, Elain need to be something else other than what already written in the books in order for their ship to be āsuperiorā.
And also they never find Elain interesting when we talk abt how she might be a spy. But suddenly Elain will be much more interesting if sheās this aggressive homewrecker. lmao saying all that to mask their jealousy over Elain.
Some Nesta stans claim that Feyre and Inner Circle should have just left her alone. Okay, but then Nesta would have died. She was literally wishing for death, she hated herself.
Nesta was not a warrior until the Inner Circle sent her to the House of Wind
Nuala and Cerridwen also have mysterious origin. We will definitely know more about wraith in the future books.
Nuala and Cerridwen, who had finished setting combs of mother-of-pearl into my hair, took one look at the delicate female and vanished into puffs of smoke.
āSkittish things,ā Amren said, her red lips cutting a cruel line. āWraiths always are.ā
āWraiths?ā I twisted in the seat before the vanity. āI thought they were High Fae.ā
āHalf,ā Amren said, surveying my turquoise, cobalt, and white clothes. āWraiths are nothing but shadow and mist, able to walk through walls, stoneāyou name it. I donāt even want to know how those two were conceived. High Fae will stick their cocks anywhere.ā
I choked on what could have been a laugh or a cough. āThey make good spies.ā
The twins are interesting people and deserve to have their stories told. How they able to work with Rhys? Where are their parents? Their interest? Their dreams?
If antis think Nuala and Cerridwen are irrelevant and unimportant then this quoted part from SJM and Katherine Webberās Hosab Interview said otherwise:
āActual history of the female spies in WW2 and how bad ass, and the enormous sacrifies that they made and like no one knows about these women, that they came from, like they werenāt like trained from birth, like assassins, they were housewives and secretary type, like most people never would look twice at and thatās why they were selected for a lot of these missions, because they can blend in easily, but then they were also train to kill with their bare handsā
So when antis dismiss them as being just Rhysandās servant, know that Rhys/SJM think highly of them and how important they are especially in the missions for the NC.
why is it so hard to understand that N&C are important to ELAINāS STORY, the same way E&G are important to NESTAāS STORY???
In the Trilogy, Mor and Amren have so many page count because the story is from Feyreās POV. Where is Gwyn and Emerie in the Trilogy? NONE. Why? coz they are not needed to enhance Feyreās story. They have no use for Feyre.
The twins have their role in the trilogy as a tertiary side character because of their association with Rhysand. Only there as helpers rather than being Feyreās friends.
Theres a reason why the twins are only refered to as āhalf wraith twinsā from Nestaās pov, bcoz thats literally what they are to Nesta. Are they important to Nestaās story? NO.
Will Emerie and Gwyn have a big role in Elainās story? NO. At most Elain might knew them as āNestaās friendā. But does it diminish their importance in the Acotar series? NO. But in Elainās story? YES.
Will the twins have more role in Elainās story? YES. For the sole reason of what they are to Elain. Friends who she spent a lot of time with. How much and who the main character spent their time with influence the importance of the side characters involved.
N&C will get this āinvestmentā when we read Elainās story.
So stop being superior over nothing. The reason Elainās stan putting Nuala and Cerridwen as important because we know they will appear in Elainās book. We theorise so much abt them because the possibility of them being spies together compared to Gwyn riding pegasus is much higher where Elainās book is concerned.
ābecause theyre mates, she need to learn to love himā
but Elain doesnt want the bond or him.
ābut what about lucienās feeling?ā
what about Elainās feeling?
āHe suffer enough, just let him be happyā
but why Elainās the one that need to pay the price for Lucienās happiness? What Lucien ever did for Elain to demand such loyalty?
āWell, they are mates for a reason. The problem is Elain never tries to give Lucien a chance. Lucien is a good guy he will treat her wellā
Have you ever sit there and think, hmm does Lucien actually like Elain as a person? or heās just pursuing her due to the mate instinct? like if theres no bond, will Lucien ever look at her way?
āIt doesnt matter. Feelings can develop. The important thing is that these two are mates. They have to work it outā
Why are you prioritising a mating system rather than the feelings of the people involved? A system that controls peopleās fate is called oppression when theres no free will.
āBut Elain has a choice. She can reject himā
So you agree being mates doesnt mean endgame coz theres possibility Elain could break the bond. And since you said Elain has a choice, theres no reason for her to give him a chance in the first place right??
āahhh Elain is a brat, ungrateful and useless. Lucien deserve better. I want Elain on her knees begging for Lucienās forgivenessā
Articles always ALWAYS mentioning Elain and the Li she need to choose really seal the deal that gw/nriel is only a fandom thing. This crackship only exist inside the fandom.
the winter is coming article mentioned about the āalmost momentā meaning they read the BC and still comes out with conclusion which is ELAIN.
