Yes, The Blog Has Changed

Fuck it, I’m writing my own damn book xD

[luna-azzurra]

Your enemies to lovers arc lives or dies on one question: what did they actually lose because of each other before they gained anything. If nobody's pride, trust, or safety took a real hit, the "enemies" part is cosplay. Make the hatred cost something first.

Ladies and gentlemen, Lucien Vanserra committed the GREATEST crime in the history of this saga against his mate...

Did he force her into a deal by twisting her injured arm?

Worse.

Did he kiss her without consent?

Worse.

Did he tell her to her face that no one liked her?

Worse.

Did he have sex with her in the middle of the war, surrounded by dead bodies? Or did he have sex with her after she’d peed herself out of fear in the swamp?

Worse.

Did he think things would never go beyond the times he masturbated thinking of her? Or did he belittle her attempts to be more active in the IC? Or did he decide who was good for her and who wasn't? Oh, I know! Did he treat her like a porcelain doll and a trophy, even though she herself said she wasn't a child for people to fight over?

Worse.

So what did he do?

A terrible, sickening thing 😓he had to admit to himself that his mate is just as beautiful (or even more so) as the only woman who treated him with the slightest bit of kindness before being brutally murdered by his own family.

And he also committed "animal torture" when he caught a fish with his bare hands for him and Feyre to eat.

HOW CAN A PASSAGE ABOUT FUCKING A WOMAN BE SO GAY TELL ME THAT CASS

[keepitmovinshawty]

Nesta and Cassian fucking right after the kelpie assault was Nesta self-medicating with sex AGAIN but no one thinks of it that way since it’s Cassian, the person she’s “supposed” to have sex with.

[theladyofbloodshed]

If i was Nesta - and as wicked as everybody made me out to be - who found out that Rhys didn’t show up to a pre-arranged meeting where his mother and sister both died because he wasn’t there to defend them, i would never shut up about it, like ever.

Ooo looks like someone else didn’t do enough

Looks like someone didn’t protect their little sibling and is projecting their trauma onto me ✨

I let my little sister hunt? You were getting sweaty with other men while your little sister was having her head chopped off 🤭

[grimseverity]

R: “I’ll never understand how you could let her go out there and do that.”

N: “I’m sorry, whose sister is dead? Oh I’ll do you one better, whose wife and son are still alive because of me?” IC looks at her horrified. “Thought so, shut the fuck up.”

Idk idk Tamlin's whole plot under the mountain is needing to stay quiet and deny any emotion. Amarantha hopes he'll react to feyre, rhysand spends two months assaulting his girlfriend in his face specifically to bother him and tamlin never ever breaks. Even during that one moment he has with feyre, the second rhysand reminds them of the danger to their lives tamlin lets it go and remains stone faced. And after spending 4 months not allowing himself a single emotion, would it not be reasonable that his trauma reaction is to keep doing that? To keep pushing through? And the natural consequence of that is an outburst, which ofc isn't great, but it's spineless and manipulative of rhysand to then judge tamlin for that, as if he hadn't spent months consciously sniping at the string that holds Tamlin's temper. Actually, headcanon: rhysand was playing a ridiculously long game utm and trying to wear tamlin down so he will be temperamental and on edge afterwards, which would lead to a feylin breakup. Maybe he was effectively doing that same thing feyre does in acowar, provoking and baiting and prodding until tamlin snaps and then crying foul.

i just think it would be so sexy of elain to cut her hair. she should give it a nice chop, let those curls brush her shoulders.

YESSSS

[pitohiu]

I’ll always hate the fact that Nesta sleeping around and having unsafe/rough sex was a problem and an unhealthy coping mechanism that she needs to stop doing, until the moment she starts having rough/unsafe sex with her soul mate.

Like suddenly it stops being a problem once she’s only sleeping with the one guy everyone (the characters not the audience) wants her to end up with.

Like which is it? Is it REALLY a problem when she’s doing it. Or do they just want her to stop ‘embarrassing’ them.

[grimseverity]

Some of these may be a bit pointed ;) but yall know what im about by now

About a third through July with no page reads or orders, so I was feeling a little discouraged.

And then someone comes and inhales the book in two days xD Mysterious reader, thank you so much!

[mainlycrossoverstuff]

hi, collective punishment violates the Geneva Conventions, making it a war crime. Which means Feyre’s a war criminal ✨.

[mainlycrossoverstuff]

ACOTAR, in a different perspective, is Tamlin's hero journey or villain backstory. Hell, he could have chosen to be a villain, could have chosen to withhold his intelligence on Hybern, so many things that he could have done in retribution yet didn’t. If the narrative wasn't so biased, that right there—the destruction of his court and the choice to join Hybern—would be his Temptation where, more often than not, someone with virtue wouldn't have fallen for it.

[silver-flames-of-dusk]

On one hand, Elain stans say that Elain doesn't need Nesta's protection, but then on the other hand they say that Nesta failed Elain by not protecting her from the Cauldron. So which one is it, because both can't be true at the same time? Does Nesta need to back off because Elain can protect herself, or is it Nesta's fault that Elain got hurt?

I should also add, if Nesta failed Elain by not protecting her from being Made, then Elain also failed Nesta for the same reason. But Elain stans don't want to talk about that.

One of my newest attacks on ArtFight, Marigold Brightmoon, Halfling Werewolf Cleric to Selune ;)

[wlwarhammer]

Feyre should be at the club not dealing with a 900 year old man who is psychotically and homosexually obsessed with her ex fiancé

[cepheusgalaxy]

"Doomed yaoi" this "doomed yuri" that what about doomed found family. What about finding comfort in these new people after going through so much on your own—a community, a solace, a home to come back to. Caring for them with all you've got, only to realize that it wasn't going to work, ever, no matter what you tried. Only to have it ripped apart, no matter how much you tried to hold them close. Found family that becomes lost family. Found family that takes your heart with it when they go.
