It's funny seeing people say Azriel needs calm and peace when the only time where it was explicitly said in his pov that he felt calm or settled was when he was bantering with Gwyn.

Azriel's schedule:
6.00 AM
wake up after 4 hours of sleep (that's a generous estimate)
get ready to face the horrors of the day
put on some fresh (?) Illyrian leathers
brekkie with Nessian, hope they kept their promise and the sanctity of the dining table hasn't been compromised (ask the shadows to check for suspicious marks and stray fluids 😔)
7.00 AM
training with Valkyries! 🙂 (make sure to point out their mistakes, they can't get too cocky. Control the shadows, they've been acting sus lately)
go through your own set of exercises (it's educational, so that the Valkyries can see the correct form. Take the top off??? So that can see the movement better. No other reasons)
9.00 AM - 2.00 PM
spymaster business (obv it's top secret, so no notes about it 🤐)
debrief with Rhys (even though he's been an ass lately. 🙄)
2.15 PM
lunch with Nessian (shadows pls check again, you know what for 😒)
3.00 PM - 6.00 PM
Hewn City duties (remember to pray to Mother for forgiveness later 😭🙏)
6.30 PM
dinner with mom ❤️
visit the River House on the way back to see what's up
8.00 PM
dagger training with Gwyn 🙂
9.30 PM
research time 🤓 (go to the library? maybe ask Gwyn for help)
11.00 PM
Rita's??? Pleasure house? Maybe have a drink or two. (send shadows to eavesdrop. Sneaky 😎)
01.00 AM
training to get tired and hopefully to fall asleep (maybe Gwyn will be there too? Ask her what's keeping her up at night and how to help.)
2.00 AM
try to fall asleep (and fail, hope that Gwyn had more luck tonight)
And if I say SJM is taking Azriel on the same romantic journey as Chaol….
Mor is his Aelin. He truly loved her. It was real to him. But due to circumstances he has to let her go.
Elain is his Nesryn. Mutual attraction but the relationship is clearly going nowhere.
Gwyn is his Yrene. The one he never saw coming.
Just watched Inside Out 2 and…
All I could think about while watching Envy’s big teal eyes and freckles was Gwyn!! 🥹🩵
Gwyn asked Az, her teal eyes bright, “What do we get if we finish the course?”
Az’s shadows danced around him. “Since there’s no chance in hell any of you will finish the course, we didn’t bother to get a prize.”
Boos sounded. Gwyn lifted her chin in challenge. “We look forward to proving you wrong.” […]
“And when Gwyn reached the finish line, bloody and panting and grinning so wildly her teal eyes glowed like a sunlit sea, she only extended her battered hand to Azriel. “Well?”
Some soft Gwynriel for you 🥰
I always thought Gwyn would be the first to fall in love before he falls harder. Of course after they already are deep into their friendship.
Also, Azriel has dark circles. Sjm and her „most beautiful“ descriptions cannot convince me otherwise.
I‘m in a good enough mood today to tell you that I‘m redrawing that awful fanart from 2023. Like always- trust the process.
@artcraawl ‘s Gwynriel art is pure happiness 💕✨I’m so obsessed

I want Gwyn to hold Azriel’s face in her hands and squish his cheeks. He would turn so red.💙
THIS IS SO CUTE HELP
i can imagine that once gwyn is completely comfortable around az, she likes touching him a lot. it comforts her and he, not so secretly, looooves it. in addition to the cheek squishing, she'd hold his hand, reach up and run her fingers through his hair, brush up against him while passing by and maybe even smack his butt if she's feeling particularly daring that day... which she almost always is, because hello, it's gwyn 🤭
Me pretending to still not care so that the next acotar book comes faster
E/riels can’t read, apparently.
“Elain has two mates”
“Azriel and Elain definitely have a mating bond, they’ll end up together”
Okay let me just clear this up:
Remember the line from ACOWAR when Elain gave Truth-Teller back to Az? It was said that the dagger was their ‘only bridge of connection’.
What is a mating bond described as? A bridge between souls.
However, in the BC, Azriel’s shadow’s ‘swore they heard some silent music, and Azriel could’ve sworn they sang in answer’, when he was about to see Gwyn.
What is a mating bond also described as? Music between souls.
Thanks for coming to my ted-talk. Let’s put an end to the dumb theory that Elain and Az are mates. Not only is the Truth-Teller scene a large foreshadowing thing, there are interactions all over the books that I might get into later that just foreshadow who Az will end up with.
happy Mermay 🧜♀️
“But they don’t have feelings for each other.”
No shit.
I am aware. And I would very much like to read about how they come to have feelings for each other.
This is the stupidest argument ever. I swear it’s as if they never read a romance novel before.
Star Sword = Metal Detector
Do you think a Gwynriel book will have multiple sex scenes or only once toward the end, once the mating bond is acknowledged and they’re in a committed relationship?
I think it's going to be a slow sexual relationship between them. I think Gwyn is getting comfortable with the idea of sex again, in a healthy manner. Because remember, Gwyn was raised in a sex-positive environment. I believe Gwyn said she was "saving herself" for the next year Calanmai to be with a male.
I think it's going to go the pace Gwyn sets for herself. I do think we'll get some spicy scenes (Like Nesta and Cassian's early scene in SF) some hot makeout sessions but I do think we won't be getting a sex scene until at least like 65% of the way into their book!
I want a scene of Azriel getting his first proper sleep in centuries because he’s sleeping near or next to Gwen. Finally at ease, finally able to rest.
Omg YES!!!!!
Why do I get the feeling Azriel will be the last one to know that he loves Gwyn?
Because the best trope is she falls first but he falls harder
