I just kinda post whatever I want lol

[nestaians]

tamlin had no part in elain and nesta being made fae - it was feyre’s fault

feyre told lanthe about her sisters

feyre brought 3 fae to her sisters home

feyre used that house to host the mortal queens and made her sisters part of it, it was her idea

feyre didn’t leave them any protection afterwards and so they got abducted

feyre the one with such strong powers didn’t do anything while they were being pushed into the cauldron, she just cried

rhysand, the most powerful high lord just held feyre as she cried

tamlin and lucien fought, they moved and tried

bc tamlin had sworn he’d take care of them and he did by giving them money unlike rhysand who wanted to roar at them and controls and uses them

bc lucien was a friend and cared for feyre

bc tamlin and lucien were only there to break feyre’s bargain from rhysand who she had made them believe was hurting her

she literally had refused to learn how to read and write when tamlin had offered her, rhysand had made her act as his whore at hewn city, she committed crimes against summer court and attacked lucien with her powers so why would tamlin believe her break up letter😭

this woman did a 180 on who she was and unlike feyre, tamlin remembers what rhysand did to her utm and knows rhysand’s hatred for him and his true face why wouldn’t he believe rhysand was using her?

bc tamlin and lucien had been surprised at seeing elain and nesta which clearly showed they had no idea of this

bc tamlin and lucien had shown disapproval of it and the king had to tied them

but feyre blamed them for her own actions

feyre said in high lords meeting that it was tamlin’s fault like it a fact and not an accusation

and no one asked tamlin for the truth

feyre never cared to ask for the truth bc it didn’t matter, for her tamlin is to blame for everything

nesta believed it was tamlin at fault too, in acosf

nesta never asked for the truth from tamlin either bc she like feyre blamed him for everything even though he did look after them unlike rhysand

elain and nesta being made fae was because of feyre bc she got them caught into the crossfire but like with everything else no one ever holds feyre accountable for her actions

[rj-hog]

I also feel like with Nesta she is CONSTANTLY hearing from everyone that Tamlin is a problem so she also believes it (EVEN THOUGH IN ACOTAR SHE WAS ROOTING FOR HIM AND FEYRE. SHE DIDN'T SEE HIM AS A PROBLEM UNTIL EVERYONE NEEDED HER TO). Which I also find problematic because she is VERY headstrong and has her own opinions (that she voices with no issues) so it came off as strange to me that she just hops on the wagon of "Tamlin needs to die," like everyone else in the IC.

No one knows a true damn thing about Tamlin, except Rhysand, but he's a liar. He needs people on HIS side.

[thefatesofspring]

I will die on the hill that the real reason Rhysand used his daemati ability to shut Tamlin up at the High Lords meeting was because he realised that Tamlin was heading in the direction of exposing what actually happened to Feyre under the mountain & not to protect/save Feyre’s dignity.

The little jab he made about the noises Feyre makes when she climaxes was on purpose because all the other High Lords know what noises she makes because of when they were Under the mountain & watching her being sexually exploited at the hands of Rhysand…when Tamlin said what he said all the HL’s looked uncomfortable & Rhysand would not be able to deny what Tamlin said because all the other HL’s were there & present too!

This.

since I am obsessing over medieval art and memes...

alright, behold, my vctims: jude and cardan

(I like my crooked hair horns rendition of jude's hair)

[rj-hog]

So I made a post on TikTok regarding everything around ACOTAR 6.

Now, everyone is entitled to their opinions! Let's get that out of the way. I am a strong advocate for discussions without insults (not a sentiment many believe in).

My question to those on tumblr, because I'm curious:

Would anyone truly complain about the POV that this book is in? And depending on whose it is, are you reading or skipping?

I've seen people say if it's Elain, Tamlin, or Nesta again, they will be pissed and are "threatening" to not read it or skip it entirely. They are afraid of it being a "Tower of Dawn situation." (ToD was my fave ToG book)

Tower of Dawn is arguably the most important book in that whole damn series. And people skip it because of Chaol.

So people will skip ACOTAR 6 if it is Elain or Tamlin's POV. I just find that insane.

We don't even know Elain-not truly. We "know" her from 2 different people's opinions: Feyre and Nesta. We don't know Elain at all.

Tamlin would be fascinating because we don't even know him, either. And HE knows things. Things about Rhysand that we don't know the truth of. And probably a lot more.

And SJM already said we aren't close to being done with Nesta's story (if I remember correctly. It was a while back when I saw that).

Like I'm gonna eat this next book up no matter whose POV it is, even if it's Rhysand. AND I CAN'T STAND HIM.

So, thoughts?

[rj-hog]

Hai this is my main, we reblogged back and forth and omg- I saw you read the acotar series and lol guess what- the book I originally made my post about is another Sarah J. book actually 💅

Plus I just wanted to say hi, and that you're cool it's great to see other readers

Oooo what book? My favorite of hers is the ToG Series, personally.

The book that saved me out of my slump was One Dark Window. I loved it so much!

And thank you, I think you're cool too! More people abound be reading!

[miranaisstillreading]

Reading after a long break is so much better

And you can't change my mind.

It's such a great feeling when you actually can't wait to pick up a book, rather then feeling like it's a chore to do so

[rj-hog]

I feel that! I was in a crazy slump last year and it took forever to finally pick a book back up but it saved me! I was really stressed and reading helped but I was too stressed! I missed reading so much

[miranaisstillreading]

So so real! I'm hoping to get back to my reading prime as the end of 2025, and start of 2026 has been a full on slump

But ayy we're both reading again and that's all that matters

I wish you a five star read babes

[rj-hog]

Thank you! Haven't quite come across one yet this year. I hope I do!

Same to you! 💙

Tamlin was traumatised too.

Tamlin had been preyed on since he was a child by Aramantha. We don't know if she did anything to him. She might have.

Tamlin was still and didn't move under the mountain because if he did, everyone could die or be tortured. He was constantly watched. If he helped Feyre she could have been killed.

But right drugging someone so they can't remember and putting paint on them which corrects itself if you touch it (meaning you could be groping them and they'd have no idea because it only stays smudged if it's not you) while making them lap dance on you every night for months wearing barely anything is so much better.

Twisting someone's broken arm so they agree to a bargain is so much better than staying still and doing nothing. Right ok.

Tamlin and Feyre literally agreed not to talk about their trauma. No Tamlin wasn't ignoring Feyre's vomiting in the mornings while he slept through the night.

Feyre wasn't the only one with trauma. You understand that with Rhys. You see his nightmares. Just because it's not on page doesn't mean it's not happening.

(Please don't make this post political I'm unable to be political online)

[eldritchguava]

ACOFAS is an absolute shit book but I do have thoughts again:

Earlier in the book Rhysand tells Feyre that Lucien still hopes to reunite with Tamlin one day.

So they are both aware that this relationship matters to Lucien, that it's important to him, that he cares about Tamlin still. That he has hope that the two of them can fix their friendship.

And then Rhysand goes and ruins that and then this happens.

Feyre herself is aware that she is to blame for the state of their relationship. She's so close to getting it. She sees how this hurts Lucien, that he's upset.

And YET she doesn't feel any remorse?? For her so-called friend who is clearly hurt by this?? Lucien straight up tells her that she has ruined any chance he has of going back to the Spring Court, that he has nowhere else to go. Clearly both Lucien and Tamlin were willing to patch up their relationship and to make it work!

And not once does Feyre think "hey maybe destroying this friendship that has existed for far longer than I've even been alive and the depths of which I couldn't begin to understand maybe that was a dick move". She doesn't even have the decency to apologize to Lucien for it even when faced directly with the consequences of her (and Rhysand's) actions!

And yet and yET despite it all Lucien doesn't say a bad word about Tamlin. He still defends him, still tells Feysand off for bullying Tamlin when he's already at his lowest. Because he still cares about him.

Shoutout to Lucien for once again being the only emotionally intelligent person. Whereas Feyre with her smooth brain immediately starts demonising Tamlin for kicking out Lucien because he's just such an evil dude Lucien himself immediately understands that Tamlin didn't kick him out because he hates him but that Rhysand and his meddling is to blame. That Rhysand somehow caused this. Because Lucien still understands Tamlin and is on his side, despite everything.

[rj-hog]

Someone help me because I can't find it???

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I could have SWORN I read that Rhysand, whenever he visited Tamlin, would basically mentally torture him by showing images of himself (Rhysand) and Feyre together. We know he says and does things on purpose to get a rise out of him, but I seriously could've swore it was stated he did this. Someone please help me remember if this is right??

And if so what book/page it may be on?? Thank you so much!

Something something it was always going to end this way.

Process under the break!

EDIT: I have a poll running now to gauge interest for buying this as a print. It will be my pinned post for a week! Now back to your regularly scheduled post.

A piece has never consumed me quite like this one did. I spent every spare minute making DOTS for A WEEK. I skipped class to work on this! I SKIPPED ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. I LOVE ORGANIC CHEMISTRY ANDI SKIPPED IT FOR THIS.

Because this was an assignment for my drawing class, it was very well documented.

This assignment was called The Vehicle Project.

Firstly, we needed to explore all the directions we could go, which was a problem for me since I decided I was making Iron Lung fanart for this project after I had seen the movie. As a part of this, we needed to explore different objects that could be incorporated, but again, I was dead set on making that submarine lol.

Because our vehicle needed a minimum of two wheels, I needed to adjust the submarine’s design a little bit and decided to put water wheels in those tube things.

And then my next decision was to make the eldritch eel using stippling (shading with dots). On my 18 x 24 inch paper…

Pro tip: Don’t do that if you have any self respect.

I spent days stippling, getting what felt like zero progress done.

And then the dots were finished.

And then I have no progress shots of me painting it because I was deliriously painting until 5 AM the morning it was due. I do have what I submitted though.

And I didn’t like it lol. Don’t trust any decision made after 3 AM, pro tip. I revisited it over a week after submitting it and got rid of the pink on its face (what was I thinking?) and made the text brighter and more luminous.

Weirdly enough, the most miserable part of this project wasn’t even the stippling. I got used to that, it was relaxing even. The fucking letters gave me the most trouble. I hate painting letters never make me do it again <- gonna have to do it again.

Anyways that has been my contribution to the Iron Lung hype on this lovely site.

Just read chapter 54 of acomaf

I'm writing this post while I cry, in the worst way possible

I genuinely can't believe sjm wrote this, read, re-read, sended to an editor and every time thought "this is great"

I can't blame anyone but me for expecting something else. I knew it would happen, yet that was such a slap on my face.

We finally get the confrontation, Rhysand will finally talk about UtM and what he did! How I was hoping for this moment, where Feyre and Rhysand can talk about his actions and it how affected her‐

It's about Rhysand. It's about Rhysand and his feelings, not a single apology, not a single attempt to understand how Feyre feels. Just one more moment of the sad pity party of "boo-hoo how little rhysie suffers 🥺"

It hit close to home for me because I remembered about how everyone around me was so focused on my sa'er feelings that in the end nothing was done about it and I still had to live with him.

Sjm really wrote this and went about how she couldn't give Tamlin a redemption arc because people saw their abusers on him

[rj-hog]

That's what made me so mad about her podcast. Stating that TAMLIN is a piece of shit and deserves to rot in hell. But Rhysand is allowed to make mistakes, and torture, and abuse. And all is forgiven.

I just... SHE. STARTED. AN. ARC. FOR. HIM. THE. MOMENT. HE. GAVE. A. KERNELLLLLLLLLL. TO. RHYSAND. (Again, Not that he even NEEDED one!) He gave Rhysand, his enemy- ENEMY- a kernel of his power. For feyre to be happy, and WITHOUT him!

I CANTTTTTTTTTT. I just want it to make sense!

[booksnwriting]

TAMLIN GIRLIES!!! For Henry's birthday on April 2 (Tamlin's voice actor), I want to send him messages from his fans! Please comment below, and I will send them all to him in cute little springy canva squares! Feel free to add your name/IG username or simply put "a fan" if you would rather remain anonymous 💚💚💚

It felt thematically appropriate to use The Hanged Man tarot card as inspiration for some art of The Convict.
