Bigger. Better. RaRaoaawr @raraoaawr - Tumblr Blog

Learn to give yourself grace.

I present to you a situation in which you would typically start saying hateful things towards yourself, but the catch is, this particular thing happened to somebody else. You would deal with that person a little more compassionately than yourself, I assume. Then why not you? Understand that you are just another human being who has "messed up" but is now trying to actively do better, which is the most important part. Be a little kinder to yourself. Just a tab bit. And then tomorrow a tad bit more.

ACOTAR TIMELINES

Click for enlarged images. We know events occurred between the war and UtM like Cassian trapping Lanthys or seeing Bryaxis, but no information on dates. As you can see from the third picture, the bulk of ACOWAR occurs over a single month.

I’m writing my first ever Elucien fic! I just got so inspired by all the great works I have read over the last months and I wanted to add my little crumb. So if you’re like me and you love the reluctant mates angst, ballroom drama, stolen glances, court romance with spice, promiscuous fae holidays, petty Elain and pain in the ass Lucien being idiots in love, then you may like this!

Here’s a snippet:

Elain had never thought this would be her fate. Ever since she was a little girl she had been told that she would one day be married for beauty and love, and that her future accomplishments would probably not add up to much more than that. She would have liked to say she had been repulsed by this idea, offended even, but she had never really questioned it.

It had never even bothered her, thinking there would be love in her future, in fact believing it to be true had always soothed her heart. Even in the lowest moments of her life, when the cold winter would make her bones chill and her stomach ache in its emptiness, when even her little sister’s efforts would not provide any sustenance and her father would simply stare into the fire in the small crumpled living room of their cottage, it was the only thing that kept her going.

And it had served her right, for a small time she truly thought her moment of sun had come to stay. She had found her place in society, had formed friends, and a handsome Graysen Nolan had fallen in love with her and Elain with him. He had looked beyond her miserable past and had seen her, courted her, romanced her and introduced her to the wonders of all she had been promised as a little girl–love and beauty.

He loved her unconditionally… until he didn’t. Until one fateful night her whole world had come to an end. Until her body had been replaced with another’s, until her senses became foreign to her, until he appeared.
