Certain people: People who criticise nesta for doing the same things that male characters do and holding her to unfair standards are misogynistic

The same people: I will now proceed to hold every single female character that is not nesta to unfair standards 😃 I will excuse cassian and azriel for being creepy, committing war crimes and being far more flawed but I will hate on other female characters for doing petty things and the big flaw of being mean (as if nesta has never been mean) 😃 I will make fun of feyre's unborn child which has literally done nothing wrong 😃

Also the same people: I wonder why the rest of the fandom hates people who defend nesta 😢

This blog doesn't tolerate any Feyre hate.

Aelin: I’ve been dreaming a lot about a certain gorgeous white haired, immortal warrior

Rowan: *blushes* Oh? ;)

Manon: *from across the room* She was talking about me, dumbass

Majority of acotar issues can be solved if they just sit down and talk.. literally everyone

If nesta, Elain, and Feyre sat down and talked

If Mor, Cassian, and Azriel sat down and talked

If Mor and Eris sat down and talked

If Tamlin, Rhysand, or Feyre sat down and talked

If Beron and lady autumn talked to they crazy ass kids

If Helion and Lady autumn talked

Like these people can fight some of the scariest creatures in the book....I’m sure they can sit and talk some stuff out

@faenet event: friendships

“They’ll be at it for a while,” Mor said, leaning against the threshold of the house. She held open the door. “Welcome to the family, Feyre.”

Maybe I’m wrong. But I fell in love with Morrigan from the first time I saw her. I love that she treats Feyre like a sister, from the very beginning. 

This piece was so fast, and it’s a little unfinished. But I like it anyway. Enjoy!

“Describe Chaol in one sentence”

[senstia]

Chaorian

Okay guys all I have to say is that Chaol and Dorian’s relationship is the most wholesome and beautiful thing Sarah has ever written,

-like starting with Dorian defending Chaol at such a young age, “Dorian lifted his chin. “I have a friend. He is to be Lord of Anielle someday, and the fiercest warrior in the land.”

-Chaol always being proud of Dorian and proud of seeing him mature, “When Dorian had spoken, it hadn’t been a prince who looked at him. It had been a king.”

-Chaol finally telling Dorian he loves him ahh, “He looked at his friend, perhaps for the last time, and said what he had always known, from the moment they’d met, when he’d understood that the prince was his brother in soul. “I love you.” “Dorian merely nodded, eyes still blazing, and lifted his hands again toward his father. Brother. Friend. King.”

-Chaol missing Dorian, “He should have enjoyed it. He should have savored every second with his friend. He’d never realized how precious the calm moments were.”

-THIS SCENE, “He knew then—that the demon inside the prince was gone.

Chaol wept.

Dorian surged from the chair and dropped to his knees beside the bed. He grabbed Chaol’s hand, squeezing it as he pressed his brow against his. “You were dead,” the prince said, his voice breaking. “I thought you were dead.”

“I’m not leaving you. Not again. Dorian’s mouth tightened. “You never left me, Chaol.” He shook his head once, sending tears slipping down his face. “You never left me.”

-Chaol being proud of his king as always, “…my king.” A note of pride at that word.”

-Chaol being worried about Dorian and managing to compliment him in the process, “Dorian would make it. He was too clever, too gifted, not to. There was no other alternative—none—that Chaol would accept. Dorian was alive, and safe. Or on his way to safety.”

-and lastly the fact that Dorian is mentioned !!! 153 TIMES !!! in Tower of Dawn

Okay that is all Chaorian needs to be appreciated more bye

Queen Vassa sketch because I kept getting asked to draw her 

Edit: Changed her ears to human as I forgot she was cursed and not fae

[satanreadsbooks]

Nesta is not the problem, quite frankly she is one of the most interesting female protagonist written, and she is the imperfectly perfect grey character and I cannot wait read about her in acosf but YALL nesta stans are the most annoying mfs on the planet I feel like you all spend more time hating feyre and the ic then liking nesta omg 🤭✋😙I said it tell me I’m wrong

[minjuiced]

I'm not certain the supposedly leaked ending is accurate*. And I've been hearing it was all made up by someone, so just block it all out and wait until the release date. However, IF it was:

In my opinion, Nesta losing all her powers isn't to complete her "redemption arc" or to show that she cared. It simply shows that SJM couldn't stand Nesta being more powerful than Rhysand - her favourite character that she loves with all her heart. It gives the implication that women aren't and can't be as powerful as men, and that a 'sacrifice' of power was needed. It isn't a bittersweet ending. It's just taking away something because as usual, the main characters (including feyre) must remain special and all powerful without any competition in the way.

And that would be the greatest disappointment of all.

*(Note: STOP giving out huge spoilers. If you have the privilege of getting an arc, treasure it. Answering vague questions or even tiny spoilers is fine, but not entire chapters.)

PETITION TO MAKE NESTA SURF DOWN THE 10,000 STAIRS OF THE HOUSE OF WIND LIKE THE QUEEN IN PRINCESS DIARIES

[uhhhhks]

I really can’t remember much about TOG besides being shocked and disappointed that Dorian and Chaol didn’t end up together??? They were obviously queer coded?

Also don’t get me STARTED on Manon, notorious man hater, SUBMITTING TO DORIAN. Besides the obvious fact that she would most definitely peg Dorian, and should’ve been with Elide, I’m so sick of seeing women forced to be sexually submissive. GIVE US FEMDOMS

[lunaathorne]

in today's news thinking of how we were robbed of the original idea of lucien x nesta, kind, quiet, compassionate lucien tossed aside by his family and his toxic dumpster friends,, fierce, brilliant nesta and her knife sharp mind and ice cold hands..... nesta realising she can have a life outside the suffocating callousness and apathy of the inner circle, lucien realising he can and should be deserving of a second chance at love!!!!

lucien holding nesta during her worst nightmares, using his healing powers to soothe her, respecting her bodily autonomy, conjuring little flames in bottles for her to keep at her bedside like baby calcifers!!!! nesta riding horseback with her lover through brilliantly hued autumn forests!!!! lucien slipping notes into the pages of her books that fall into her lap when she is reading, nesta determined to frosty nose stare-down anybody who dares talk against him. nesta refusing to room in a palace and opting for a house by the woods and lucien visiting her with dried flowers and old tomes!!!! lucien and nesta healing together!!!! falling in love!!!! leaving those selfish people to themselves, building their own lives!!!!
