Fragments of a Dreamer

For soft hearts, restless minds, and stories filled with longing. A quiet place for shadows, tenderness, aching love, and the kind of feelings that linger long after the story ends. Writing Elriel on AO3 — Kemamuva

Elriel passion

[nyxreads]

Elain rasped, “Nice to meet you,” before hustling after her, the silk skirts of her cobalt dress whispering over the parquet floor.

But Elain did not balk from him, did not shy away as she nodded—just once. Azriel, graceful as any courtier, offered her an arm.

“Why not make them mates?” I mused. “Why Lucien?”

But Azriel only took Elain’s heavy dish of potatoes from her hands, his voice soft as night as he said, “Sit. I’ll take care of it.”

Azriel stood in the doorway, monitoring them. As if he’d heard Elain’s sharp laugh and wondered what had caused it. [...]Then his gaze shifted to Elain, and though it was utterly neutral, something charged went through it. Between them. Elain’s breath caught slightly,

After writing Chapter 26 of Where Soft Things Bloom, I genuinely don’t know how I’m supposed to act normal.

Posting soon.

And I think Elain—Elain would like it, too. Though she’d probably cling to Azriel, just to have some peace and quiet.”I smiled at the thought—at how handsome they would be together.🥀🦇

Elriel love

[mypovkmv]

Elriel will forever have my heart

Their love has never felt temporary to me.

It has always felt like something quietly growing beneath the surface, waiting for the moment neither of them can pretend anymore.

One day, Elain will grow tired of convincing herself that walking away is the right thing to do. She’ll stop choosing everyone else’s expectations over her own heart. She’ll stop pretending that what she feels for Azriel isn’t real.

Because a love like theirs was never meant to stay hidden.

It’s too big to disappear.

Too gentle to be forgotten.

Too pure to be denied.

Some loves simply refuse to fade, no matter how hard you try to bury them.

I can’t wait for the day they stop fighting what has always been there and finally choose each other—not because anyone tells them they should, but because it’s what they both truly want.

A love this beautiful deserves to be chosen.

Every single time. 🩷🦇🌷

Now we're suddenly upset that ACOTAR has sex scenes.

Shaming Azriel for wanting Elain's 😺 (and almost getting it) is giving crusty virgin. I'm sorry.

You're just upset that he doesn't want to eat Gwyn's. You're not mad at sex, you're mad because Azriel craves Elain the same way Cassian craved Nesta. So stop trying to make this about Azriel because we all know it's not. He wasn't even thinking about getting pleasure with her, he was thinking about pleasuring HER.

No one is stopping you from reading a book without sex, girl. But that's not what pisses you off, right?

What bothers you, is that after saying "they have no chemistry" and "they have sibling vibes" you have to read that the man is drooling and begging for a taste of Elain. So now you have to act like Azriel is just fuckboy. Whatever but accepting he loves the girl you guys hate.

"OMG, a male protagonist wants to fuck a female protagonist" "and it's consensual"

You're not precisely a nun if you're debating over a Bonus Chapter IN ACOSF, PLEASE

So many people- both in the story and in the fandom- underestimate Elain. They think she’s meek, plain, boring. They look at her as a damsel in distress, who needs a man to save her.

But what if, in the next book, it’s Elain that does the saving? What if it’s Azriel that is the damsel in distress, lured in by Koschei, much like the Snow Queen retelling SJM has alluded to?

Thank you SO SO MUCH to @nykur0h for bringing this piece to life for us! It perfectly captures the menacing, foreboding aura we were looking for.
