“Non-existent musical imagery” weren’t yall the ones to call us Gleeriel? LMFAO

Multiple POV

Ok so we know the next book is in 4 parts broken down into three physical books. We have a novella, and 2 regular novels. The question we have to ask ourselves is this the end. Like does this fulfill SJMs contact with BB. Was she trying to fit the last of her stories into their respected slots that she had in her head and realized they didn't work and so now we have 3 books coming out? If so, that would make sense to have a multi POV.

For those saying she would never do that, cresent city featured on Brcye and Hunt for most of CC1 with the occasional POV from another. Cc2 and CC3 are multi with lots of different characters getting a space. I can count 6 just right off the top of my head (Ithan, Bryce, Hunt, Lydia, Ruhn, Tharion). Within those 6 we had 2 major relationships develop along with 2 started relationships, and multiple plots arose without conculsions which made the ending of CC3 seem incomplete.

TOG is multi POV. Its multiple books, but we also had two books occurring at the same time. I think the problem with ACOTAR is that it started out with 1 couple and we had three books showcase that couple and that couple was able to get rid of the villain within their plot. The idea that we will have 1 couple per book is where the problem is. SF took place over 1/2 to 3/4 of a year. We were limited to Nesta and Cassian POV which was fine but what were some of the other characters doing for the last year? What has Elain been up to? (We know she wasn't with Azriel because he said he was avoiding her in his POV). What about Lucien and the BOE? We get glimpse of them through Cassian and Nesta but we aren't getting the full story. It also looks like the plots are splitting. Azriel and crew gotta deal with Dusk and the Illyrians. Elain and Lucien got to go deal within vassa and koschei. Its like CC where Brcye took the main gang on quests while the other characters had their own sode quest. TOG was similar.

If SJM decided to do multiple POV for ACOTAR, she could wrap up Elucian, Gwynriel, Emorie, and any other ships all within the next 2000 pages because we already have a bunch of the world building so this is strictly plot.

Now here's the kicker, if Elriel accepted that multi POV, maybe they would see that they would get elriel, vassian, targwyn and any other crackships they wanted all in their next book. I'm sorry, I'm not reading a book about Vassa as the main love interest who's had about 5 lines of dialog over 4 books, and has the build up of a cardboard box.

I like to imagine azriel vibing to heavy beat club music and chuckling at death metal per the canon HOFAS bonus chapter while certain insufferable contingencies manufacture racially-based outrage on his behalf over his canonical music taste.

like sorry he likes club music and metal and would get along with Ruhn and his friends PER BRYCE. God forbid a male has varied music taste and isn't the button-up, perfect picture of a ""traditional gentleman"" in every facet of his personality every single minute of his day.

Trout week

For those that don't know, there was a memorial week in honor of Dave and Jim? The fish lucien and Feyre caught and ate in ACOWAR in the Court of Nightmares sub on reddit. It was beautiful. Very fitting for our lost fish friends. If you would like to participate, I'm sure the overlords of the Hewn city wouldn't mind it. Azriel released a report on how they were murdered, lucien showed up to defend himself, and the fish are getting their law enforcement together. Overall its been wonderful. Lots of memes and good times. I heard the shadow singer even shows up in a video.

Reminder that Azriel has not yet heard Gwyn sing. Or seen that it literally makes her glow.

When he does, it’s game over.

[bluiela]

The funniest thing is Sarah knows about the "This isn't Glee thing", she knows how e/riels try to mock the musical imagery etc. and even after that she's choosing all this musical imagery...🤭🤭 The gleeriel winning is that obvious 🤭

Music in ACOTAR

Elain: *crickets*

Gwyn: Sings with the priestesses and had a solo during SF. Was physically glowing while singing.

Azriel: is a shadow singer

Can sing (thanks to gwyn asking)

Heard his shadows sing around gwyn

Sjm was listening to Kpop and Batman soundtracks while writing.

Sounds like Gwynriel to me.

[nymphpriestessvalkyrie]

Just a passage I love.

Gwyn has so much music in her that she cannot hold it all. It fights to break free.

It needs to be loose in the world.

We are SO READY to hear it, precious girl.

[kjanon]

Bipolar?

So let me get this straight, the debate sub told everyone that yes Juniper was a real account, and instead of Elriels just accepting it and moving on, this person makes a whole "we won post. What did you win? Whatever she shared, she only shared it within her 5 alt accounts and then goes to reddit saying they're getting tired of the inside information. Like my guy, you are over here creating mountains out of mole hills. If you're an elriel still listening and following this person, you probably shouldn't.

[stephsarchives]

So actually my friend’s sister’s boss knows someone who is the neighbour of SJM and saw her writing Gwynriel and I actually have photos of one chapter but obviously I cannot share it

Litcrate Joy now has hundreds of e\riels harassing them. Absolutely pathetic behavior.

But let's rewind and take a look at the events of yesterday:

What your favorite SJM ship says about you ->

If your favorite SJM couple is Azriel and Elain then your type is just 'shadow daddy'

If your favorite SJM couple is Feyre and Tamlin then you've only read the first book, or you're just toxic

Hate to break it to them, but their e\riel stance wasn't positive. This wasn't a soft launch. Litjoy has no insider information. Howeveer, they do see e\riel as a superficial pairing in the same vein as Feylin...

Did it suck that they didn't post elucien or gwynriel? Yes.

Did it suck that they didn't post chaol and yrene, lysndra and aedion, sartaq and nesryn, ruhn and lidia? Also yes.

Did we harass Litjoy Crate? No.

I saw about 5 comments saying elucien or gwynriel was their favorite character which is fair as Litcrate Joy asked who your favoriate SJM couple was. There were a couple Yrene and Chaol or Ruhn Lidia too.

There was one who tried to harass them who made a video that garnered 30 likes...

Did that influence Litjoy to remove Feylin and E\riel slides? I am skeptical.

Litjoy likely saw the e\riel comments misinterpreting their slides and decided to use feylin as an excuse to remove both slides. Clearly no one in Litjoy's team are fans like us because the e\riel reaction to first the slides then their reaction to the slides being removed was predictable.

Here's what you missed on this weeks episode of

✨️The ACOTAR Fandom ✨️

Thanks for stopping by 👋 Tune back next week for even crazier antics

SJM in an interview: “music inspires like 90% of what I write”

Also SJM:

“Her breath curled in front of her mouth, and one of his shadows darted out to dance with it before twirling back to him. Like it heard some silent music.”

“She shrugged again, irreverently. Az narrowed his eyes, studying her. “Do you, though?” she pressed. “Sing?” Azriel couldn’t help his soft chuckle. “Yes.”

“Azriel entered the warmth of the stairwell, and as he descended, he could have sworn a faint, beautiful singing followed him. Could have sworn his shadows sang in answer.”

Also SJM: 💖🎶💖

[untillthedarknessclaimsus]

I don't view Azriel rescuing Elain as romantic on my rereads.

He volunteered because Cassian couldn't go. Azriel already knew Cassian had feelings for Nesta. Plus Elain is the high lady's sister. Rhys would have gone with Feyre. Though the king would have sensed him.

Elain had to hear or witness the children of the blessed being tortured. Or whatever horrible thing the army did to them. This isn't romantic. When she kicked the hound. She was trying to save the girl too. She gave him a kiss on the cheek because he saved her. She knew what was going to happen to her if no one did. And that's a fate that's worse than anything else. Not everything is romantic.

Lots of energy

Ya know, for a group that has a month going on and keeps going on about antis, they certainly spend a lot of time trying to debunk anything we say. So the juniper book account was confirmed. If you think its fake, why spend so much energy on it. Is it because they interacted with a gwynriel? All that energy and time being used on ranting about an account that didn't even do or say anything we didn't already know. If that account liked/followed elriel, or one of their 8492 subs, we would never hear the end of it. Give it a break elriels, your acting like children.

[bluiela]

Another day, another E/riels fandom misinformation campaign delivered with full confidence and zero facts.

At this point it’s honestly becoming a pattern with them harassing companies

Last year and now this year as well:

Last year, there were fake screenshots involving them pretending to be the tattoo company that designed the Acotar cover art

to the point where the actual company had to step in because people were quite literally jeopardizing their business for fandom drama.

And now this year, the exact same crowd immediately jumped into harassing us over “pretending to be Juniper Books,” acting smug and self-righteous, only for moderators to confirm that it WAS actually Juniper Books the entire time.

It would almost be funny if they weren’t so aggressively committed to embarrassing yourselves publicly every few months.

The speed at which E/riels fans see a rumor and instantly transform it into a harassment campaign without doing even five seconds of fact-checking genuinely needs to be studied.

Maybe instead of obsessively monitoring us and jumping on hate trains every other week, try enjoying your own ship for once.

[kjanon]

0 days without elriel nonsense😂. For a ship who takes a whole month, they certainly love to hate on everyone else. Talk about insecurity.
