Settle down, tender heart of mine.

she/her. bi. 26. teacher. overthinker.

I support Mira's rights, but more importantly I support Mira's wrongs (punching her brother in the goddamn face)

Violet: “So I’m seeing someone, but I’m not sure how to tell you who it is. I’m worried you’ll react badly.”

Mira: “Just do it quick. Rip the band aid off.”

Violet: “It’s Xaden Riorson.”

Mira: “Put the Band Aid back on!”

[moonwatermind]

At the viscount:

Violet: I like your dress

Mira: Thanks IT HAS POCKETS!

OKAY WAIT WAIT !!

BRENNEN SAID THAT “something killed the Venin 600 years ago and we are actively searching for that weapon” AND THEN FUCKING ANDARNA SAID “I waited 650 years to hatch..it was why I was left behind. At least from what I can remember..”

ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT ANDARNA COULD BE THE WEAPON TO DEFEATING THE VENIN ?!

[moonwatermind]

I can’t believe Violet heard about a girl named Catriona and then saw a girl named cat longingly stare at Xaden but she somehow didn’t put that together??? Girl are the lights on upstairs?

[aprill-99]

Sgaeyl: “Remember to engage your enemies.”

Xaden: “On it. Hey Violence! Will you marry-“

Sgaeyl: “-Not like that!”

[queerpiratebrainrot]

It is so fucking funny that Dain, quite literally was all like

"i think I might be a little in love with Xaden, cuz I heared part of that declaration, and DAMN"

Like, yea, us too, Dain, us too.

Hinted Iron Flame spoilers

I’m going to need Violet and Sgaeyl’s relationship to get a lot more screen time in the next book.

No one will fight as fiercely for Xaden as his girls will, and those two together would be a forced to be reckoned with.

[hannah-schooler]

ngl xaden’s “well this is awkward” when they got back to basgiath and leadership read their names off the death roll was PEAK COMEDY

[itz-frenchy]

It’s always “I wanna fuck Xaden Riorson” and “I’d let Xaden Riorson do xyz to me”

Just let me fuck Bodhi Durran. Let me fuck him. Make fics about him.

He’s literally described as being “closely resembling Xaden, just less angular”

[whenwewereyoung97]

(Hinted spoiler?)

So I am, of course, upset for Violet

…but I am devastated for Sgaeyl.

Xaden Riorson 🤝 Aelin Galathynius

Can murder people in cold blood but favorite food is chocolate cake

[vices-aand-virtues]

Xaden (after meeting Violet): This is crazy. I'm having...feelings again. Like some kind of 14-year-old kid. You remember feelings, right?

Garrick: ...yeah. I have feelings every single day of my life.

Xaden: Do you?

Garrick: ...are you saying you don't have feelings?

[murasaki-cha]

I feel like over 50% of the book would be reduced if Violet and Xaden went to couple's therapy. Just a thought.

[shayennelovesbooks]

Violet making a plan

Tairn disagreeing with the plan

Dain disagreeing with the plan

Tairn agreeing with the plan bc who does Dain thinks he is disagreeing with Violet

[wingleaderriorson]

Obviously we knew Xaden knows he’s better than Dain and has never questioned that but Violet being like “I didn’t sleep with Dain” and Xaden being like “yeah I knew that as soon as I saw that awkward as fuck threshing kiss” was just everything
