Azriel's friendships

I posted this on reddit but I'll post it here too.

Rather than see Azriel's friendship with Nesta , I'd like to see his with Nuala and Cerridwen . Unlike Nesta and Azriel , I wholly believe he has an organic and deep friendship with Nuala and Cerridwen.

I think Azriel has a great bond with Rhys and Cassian but I think Azriel's spirit is really strong so it often causes friction within the dynamic . Ex : bonus scene , we later find oit Rhys and Azriel threw snowballs with rocks in it at eachother

I don't think he has much of a friendship with Mor and Amren (don't attack me)

I think the small part of Azriel and Feyre's friendshio we got to see was cute but once again , I really don't think it is deep

We haven't seen much of them but I truly believe that Nuala and Cerridwen would be able to connect with Azriel on a deeper level than anyone else (except Elain). I think it's cute that they listen to Azriel over Rhys .

Which (sidenote) , I believe proves even more that their friendship with Elain is going to be off the charts in 6 , 7 and 8 .

Also hot take : Azriel and Nesta do not have a friendship . He was kind to her and even showed her more grace than she deserved really but she doesn't reciprocate it (as seen in CC3).

Nesta is the worst sister , her PoV is awful and I'm tired of the whole "she hated herself" excuse . Concept of Elain being the self centred one . Nesta had to be pushed to help . Elain and Feyre treat Nesta far better than she deserves .

"Elain did not deserve" to be treated in a nice way ? . Right I forget Nesta is only nice to mean strangers and people who try to harm her . I forgot she only likes people as bad as her (yes . I am calling Gwyn , Emerie and Bryce as bad as her . I did not include Azriel because clearly Nesta does not respect or care for him . Source : CC3)

"No one takes her seriously" . Azriel literally searched for the answer for what was plaguing Elain . they literally ask Elain about her visions after they learn she is a seer . Feyre seeks her out to help find the Suriel . Elain doesn't need a book to find her purpose . Nesta is the stagnant sister . Nesta doesn't have a group of friends , she has two yes men . Elain and Feyre actually have friends .

Nesta is not linked to the Dusk Court . Her loser self won't be appearing heavily in Elain's books

It's so funny to me when people go in "the next books Rhys will bond with Gwyn and they will be friends" and "Azriel is going to spend so much time with the Valkyries and he is going to leave the IC for them" . There are also the ones who accept the next books are Elriel . These ones are just spectacular "The Valkyries are going to be Azriel's wing women and help him woo Elain from all they have learned from the romance books they read".

They should leave Rhys and Azriel alone , neother one of them considers them friends nor will they ever . The Valkyries assigned batboy is Cassian , yet they never talk about him . He was the only batboy who wanted to go to the rite and save them , you would think that it would make the Valkyries fans like him more . I guess not .

I am not an idiot , I do understand why they would rather have a powerful daemati Highlord or a powerful shadowsinger Illyrians spymater be friends with their faves . It still isn't going to happen though .

Cassian

I think Cassian has feelings for Azriel and Rhys . The way he spoke about the Mor and Azriel situation in Wings and Ember . The way he was with Rhys throughout ACoSF .

I think this is all proof

Imagine requesting a racist and problematic drawing, your racist friend draws it for you, your other racist friends defend her, and then when people bring up the very real, very reasonable concern that a healthcare worker could think this way, all you say is:

“Wow they really love my job!”

Bitch please.

I’m sorry, but you have to be a pretty weird person to think that drawing a character “hanging themselves over love” is funny. I’m sure the intention wasn’t to mock real victims, but sometimes we need to stop and think about where the line is between being funny and simply crossing it.

Elain's possible powers

I know we have talked about Elain getting life powers because of the de*th powers Nesta has / had but I wonder if the Cauldron gave her more than we expect .

What if Elain gained the power of "reality warping" . Since there isn't really one concrete explanation of it , here is a link to what it esentially is (this is the explanation according to the PJO universe) : https://riordan.fandom.com/wiki/Mystiokinesis

I think this power is complementary to the power of sight / clairvoyance Elain already possess . Elain went into the cauldron first so I do really believe she more likely has reality warping powers rather than the "opposite" powers of what Nesta stole .

I'm not even joking , I saw some people get upset that SJM's team asked an account to stop charging people on Patreon for AI-generated ACOTAR content.

What an absolute joke .
