Imagine going Under The Mountain to heroically save the damsel in distress (Tamlin) and then being pissed that the damsel... was in distress

[snarkformysanity]

Night Court: Spends 500 years running a PR campaign to convince everyone else they're evil

Night Court: Is infamous for its tyranny and debauchery, and also for having the Most Powerful Daemati High Lord Ever as its lord

Night Court: The High Lord willingly serves Amarantha (Hybern's general) for no apparent reason other than to save his own skin (because no one else knows about the secret city he sacrificed the rest of his court to save, after all)

Night Court: High Lord publicly abuses a human girl for months Under the Mountain, in front of all the other High Lords

Night Court: High Lord kidnaps said girl from her wedding to the Spring Lord, she later turns up married to Night with an explanation that definitely doesn't involve mind-control

Night Court: Approaches Summer on the pretext of forging an alliance, betrays and robs them instead

Night Court: Sends formerly human girl as a double-agent to break the Spring Court from within

Night Court: Somehow Just Knew about an imminent attack on the Summer Court, despite no one else getting word. And they definitely don't try to leverage this as capital against their previous offences against Summer

Night Court: Tries to change the time and location of the High Lord meeting at the last minute and strongarm everyone into agreeing to it

Night Court: Causes immediate insult to every other High Lord present at said meeting by insisting they bow to its Lady, because the Night Lord thinks she deserves it

Night Court: Immediately starts talking shit to the other lords about Spring, who has yet to arrive

Night Court: Immediately starts drama with Spring, once he does arrive. Uses magic to choke him quiet when he says things they don't like

Night Court: Refuse to admit responsibility for betraying and stealing from Summer, using their aid in the attack to deflect from it

Night Court: Dodges questions about murdered Winter children and deflects with a sob story when pressed. A former human woman must apologise on their behalf

Night Court: Violently attacks delegates from the Autumn Court not once, not twice, but three times over the course of the proceedings

Night Court: "So, who wants to be our allies?"

.........................

................and then six out of seven fucking hands go up.

Please. Make it make sense.

Do I hate Feyre Archeron? No. I pity her. I pity the person she became. I pity this trophy wife who is completely dependent on her husband. I pity this twenty year old girl whose environment continued to choose her mate over her despite claiming themselves as her friends. I pity this immature woman who will never see past the end of her nose when it comes to the suffering of those she rules over. I pity this practically newborn fae who has been molded and manipulated and unknowingly shaped by those who she was supposed to trust.

I pity Feyre Archeron.

And I hate how she was written, what the author failed to touch upon through her main character and I hate losing what could've been.

EDIT: she's additionally very annoying.

The new synopsis for book 6

SJM writing all of this into the books:

[designerpotatosack]

Gonna take a moment and think bout the fact that SJM wrote a story where the male who SA'd the fmc is the "good guy," and the men who believed the fmc without question when she lied bout being SA'd are the bad guys. Idk how that makes me feel.

And can I say that Nesta and Elain are isolated in Velaris?

Because they are. They never saw the world–Prythian–outside Velaris, they went to the Hewn city one time and Nesta went to a few meetings with Cassian when meeting with Eris. They do not have money of they own, we never even learn what happened to their inheritance from their father. As far as I know Nesta does not get paid for her work in the library or with the Valkyrie's. Quiet frankly they live on Rhysand and Feyre's money, and "kindness".

(Remember in acofas where Feyre made Nesta go to their solstice party using her rent money?)

Elain literally lives with them (how uncomfortable it must be to live with your little sister and her husband, and they famously like to solve their arguments with sex), and has nothing of her own. Her friends are their spies/maids that Feyre paid extra for befriending her and "helping" her.

They live in Velaris where Rhysand can tell any employer not to hire them, where Rhysand rules from.

But Nesta likes Velaris and Rhys offered her multiple jobs before locking her up!

Yes, he offered her jobs that most likely served him and where he would be her full-time boss. As a girl with a brother in law(that is like a brother to me no matter how much i shade him) I would not want him to be my boss, and do as he says.

If they wanted to escape the city they couldn't, because they do not know anyone outside of Velaris(someone they could trust). The reason they could lock Nesta up was because she had no other choice, had never saw the rest of Prythian or the Night Court.

The concept of it all is just wierd and uncomfortable for me. They live on Rhys and Feyre goodwill, and we all saw what happens when they do something they do not like.

And while we're here: WHAT THE FUCK IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT VELARIS?

[extremely-judgemental]

Okay we've all talked about the ridiculousness of 17 years old Morrigan being promised to 9 years old Eris. But can we talk about 9 years old Eris being blamed and hated for not fighting Beron and Keir, defying their laws, and rescuing Morrigan? Bitch that is a little boy, what is he supposed to do?
