“Oh but it was on a bonus chapter so it’s not relevant” is such a stupid excuse to invalidate a canon event.
“Half of the fandom don’t know it happened”
Okay? It’s on them for not reading it. It’s all over the internet. One click and you can find a pdf.
I didn’t read half of the TOG books but it doesn’t mean it’s not there.
Whenever I get nervous about Elucien/Gwynriel, I think about how I always spoil movies I’ve never seen before while watching them. Gotta trust my pattern recognition.
Another debate about spying.
Yes, keeping a secret is important. But spying is about being patient. Taking information in and then finally using that for your benefit. It’s not a competition of who holds the secret the longest, it is how you use that for your benefit.
Giving someone a weapon is not a flex.
Teaching someone how to be a weapon is.
Oh to be Gwynneth Berdara.
weaponization of Gwyn's SA
"Gwyn may not be ready"
Why tf are you putting timeline on anyone's healing and weaponizing someone's SA as an argument.
And if you think SJM isn't capable of giving any of her characters proper stories they deserve why tf are you reading her books?
This was so problematic and disgusting to read.
And obviously this is all okay because it goes with the e/riel narrative so they can make all the problematic and hurtful statements they want.
Another thing I wanted to point out is them saying her returning to the library is her again feeling uncomfortable with men?
Gwyn has shown throughout the book that she wants to move forward. She no longer wants to be weak EVER again. She is moving FORWARD. She has shown interest in smut and she bloody WON the blood rite and became a CARYNTHIAN and IT WAS HER IDEA? She pushed Nesta and Emery to cross the mountain.
Did we not read the same book? She wants to get OVER her trauma. Be it being the first one to sign up. The first one to pitch the idea about Valkyrie. The first one to actually become the Valkyrie in ages.
So she will go back to just how she was in just the aspect of sexual exploration?
That’s just biased reading.
She went back to library because she genuinely enjoys studying and spending her time there.
I really don’t understand why anti’s point this as something negative.
They really need validation from outside articles and people outside the fandom who probably haven't even read the books (the articles being written are written from exploring the fandom spaces)
because they don't get it from the books and other books written by the author.
They don't get the validation from the books so the desperately beg for it in outside articles. Like they'll ignore the Lucien (fated mate part in the article) because they don't even consider Elain without Azriel.
Also fyi yrene, rowan, elide, lorcan, ruhn, lidia, tharion, sathia, are all random side character who became very important MCs. Elain too is a random side character (they probably have the books mixed up with their fanfics)
Isn’t acknowledged outside of the fandom
You mean people who haven’t actually read the book?
It’s like taking advice about drug interactions from a swimmer.
It’s just sad seeing Gwyn get dragged by haters when it was AZRIEL who gifted her the necklace. (Girlie was just in her business) and it was again NESTA NOT GWYN who called him her new ribbon.
It was AZRIEL’S shadow that started dancing. (Gwyn probably doesn’t even realise this as something unusual and just regards it as normal)
Be for so real right now.
The only attention she wants right now is from the pegasus.
Elriels: Gwyn lured Az during the solstice.
Meanwhile Gwyn: The ribbon, the RIBBON, THIS DAMN RIBBON.
Sorry to disappoint but Azriel giving Elain Truth Teller is a glaring example of how ill suited they are.
Azriel gives her something precious to him and she hands it back without a second glance. As if the underlying importance of gesture meant nothing to her.
And that is the point.
What Azriel has to give, no matter how important it is to him, is not what Elain needs or wants.
If the only bridge of connection holds no significance to one side, the bridge collapses.
Juxtaposed this to the lesson he gives to Gwyn on solstice which was exactly what she needed to help her accomplish her goal of cutting the ribbon.
If you can conclude Vassien with like two lines of them mentioning each other.
Then I don’t think Gwynriel is that of a far cry.
Elain “I’m not a child to be fought over” Archeron
Lucien “I never want to fight in another battle again” Vanserra
Azriel “I’ll defeat him with little effort” shadowsinger
Please tell me you see where I’m going with this…
SJM literally describing Gwyn’s hair color.
Elriels: LIGHTSINGER.
Kinda reminds me of
the level of delusion
Imagine actually thinking an entire community ships a ship because they hate a character.
Like they are in need of touching grass and some reasoning and logical thinking classes so badly.
Another day of them playing the victim.
We adore Gwyn so we ship Gwynriel. I thought it was obvious.
And complaining about not being good enough? When Lucien is constantly dragged by Elriels? As the one not being good enough for Elain compared to Az?
Even taking pride in the fact that Az was so smug about winning the dual against Lucien with ease?
The hypocrisy.
Azriel’s shadows did not alert him of Gwyn that Solstice night because they recognized a piece of him within her—as if they sensed a similar soul residing in both. They did not alert him because they were just as comfortable around Gwyn as they are around Azriel. Like coming home.
No one could’ve summarised it better.
Forbidden romance is nice and all but imagine when Azriel finally finds his mate.
I know a part of him will heal. He will finally feel like he deserves love.
He will know that the universe cares, the cauldron cares and the mother cares.
For arguments sake, what if Gwyn is evil and working with the enemy.
What if Az and her fall in love and then he realises that she is evil only to then find out she is his mate.
I would love the enemies to lovers development.
I loved Ruhn and Lidia in CC. The angst was top notch.
