Emilia x Wrath for the ship meme 😌
Of course my love! This is for @booksandbeans too
who reaches out to new neighbors: Emilia 100% neighbors never know what to make of Wrath.
who remembers to buy healthy food: They both do! Wrath does it for fitness reasons, Emilia does it for cooking and experimenting in the the kitchen.
who remembers to buy junk food: Emilia. Wrath always gives her a look when she does. All she needs to do is bribe him with cannolis and he let's it go....for now.
who fixes the oven when it breaks: Emilia. Unless its an issue she can't reach then it's Wrath.
who waters the plants/feeds their pet(s): Emilia
who wakes up earlier: Wrath. He wakes up insanely early. Were talking 5am maybe 6 if Emilia has any say in it. Nudges her awake to say he's leaving she grumbles. "just a few more minutes."
who makes the bed: They usually take turns. It's mainly Wrath
who makes the coffee: Wrath. Because Emilia is making breakfast.
who burns breakfast: neither.
how do they let each other know they’re leaving the house: Emilia, her fingers graze against his jaw and she kisses the opposite side he pulls her into an embrace while he kisses her temple. She tells him to not make anyone cry today. He makes no promises. .
*They both learned the fun way to no mouth kisses because they never stop and then they're late.
how do they greet each other when one of them gets home: Wrath usually finds Emilia in the kitchen prepping dinner. He doesn't say anything for a moment. Just watches her in her element. Always observing. She knows he's watching. Always feels that assessing gaze. Then he moves, circling his arms around her waist, kissing slowly from the top of her head to her neck whispering, "La mia strega, how was your day." She smiles turning in his arm, "Mio demone, how was yours?"
who brings home little gifts like flowers/chocolates more often: Wrath. He spoils the shit out of her. It doesn't stop at flowers and chocolates. He brings her outfits, jewelry, new things for her kitchen, books, wine, ingredients he thought she might like
who picks the movie for movie night: They play cards to decide.
their favorite kind of movie to watch: For Wrath its thrillers/suspense/mystery, mafia, action, heist movies. For Emilia romance, murder mystery/who done it(think knives out), adventures. Any movie must have comedy for her.
who first suggests a pillow fort: Emilia!
who builds the pillow fort: Wrath
who tries to distract the other during the movie: Emilia. Wrath gets really into the movie espically when it's new or a fave. Emilia tries to see if she can break him.
who falls asleep first: Usually Emilia. But if it's a romcom, Wrath.
who is big spoon/little spoon: big spoon- Wrath, little spoon- Emilia. Not that he wouldn't mind. He just likes knowing she's safe in his arms 🧡
Domestic ship asks
Hi, I'm here to rant about the Inner Circle in ACOSF.
When I got to the point where the IC is discussing what Nesta should or should not know about HER OWN POWERS, especially when Feyre justifies it...URGH, you ever have the urge to get in a book and just strangle the characters? Yep, that was me.
But then, when Feyre finds out they did the same thing for her pregnancy as well....a part of me did feel sorry for her, because nobody should have to put up with that, BUT I was also like "How does it feel to be at the other end of the stick, Feyre?"
And Rhysand being like "Get Nesta out of this city before I kill her".... did he forget that he was talking about the most powerful person in Prythian at the time?
Anyway, if you have any IC Slander, now or from older posts, send it my way, please!
Hey! You came to the right place for the ic slander lmao
To be honest I was already mad at the ic at the intervention (so basically in ch 1 lmao), so when they voted on Nesta and her powers being kept from her I wasn’t even surprised, it was a peak feminist Rhysand its your choice™️ decision.
I felt really fucking bad for Feyre throughout the whole book tbh, because not only her mate was keeping secrets that threatened her life, but also all the people she considers friends and found family. Acosf just further showed us that the ic will always side with Rhys, it doesn’t matter that he made Feyre high lady - they will always side with him, and look to him first. I was expecting her to be way more mad, but Rhys can do no wrong in SJM’s eyes, so unfortunately it makes sense that it was swept under the rug and Feyre was okay with the fact she was going to die 2 hours after finding out about it and there were no consequences really.
The get her out of this city before I kill her line .. don’t get me wrong but I wasn’t even mad at Rhys - but only because I had zero expectations from him. he’s always treated Nesta like shit, he doesn’t give a fuck that Feyre wants to put the hostility behind them,and he’s treated Nesta as if she shat in his cereal bowl - up until the very end. What made me mad in this scene was the absolute lack of Cassian’s anger at him - it was so unrealistic that his mate’s life was threatened and he was like okay Rhys guess we’re going on a roadtrip then … like what ?? This was once again the example of the ‘Rhys can do no wrong mr feminist king’ and that Cassian’s undying loyality to the ic and especially Rhys is unhealthy.
I have made my peace with it and the ic since then, i was never really that into them as a friend group to be honest (they have nothing compared to the frendships in tog and i stand by that), so the disappointment wasn’t as big for me. The valkyries in one book showed more love and appreciation towards each other than the ic in 3 books, so I’ll always prefer them. I’m even fine with Rhys after everything, I mean he did shut down e/riel so I have to respect him for that lmao, and I ship feysand, because they are perfect for each other, just keep them away from my girl Nesta. The only one I’ll always passionately hate is Amren and I stand by the opinion that she should’ve stayed dead in acowar now she’s just there to be nasty and annoying.
This turned out to be a short story basically, sorry for that 😅 (I didn’t really post about these when acosf came out because I just wanted to focus on Nesta but I do have some anti mor and amren posts if you’re interested, I tagged them with acosf spoilers)
Hold on, it's your birthday and you gift us with a fic?! ❤️🥺

How much poetry do you manage to read throughout the year, a lot or just a little? And which poets are among your favourites? I probably only read one book of poetry every couple of months. This realization make me want to add more to the mix because I really do enjoying this expressive form of art. I think I will discover Baudelaire next. . . . . . . . #everymanslibrary @everymanslibrary #everymanslibrarypocketpoets #charlesbaudelaire #robertfrost #emilydickinson #sylviaplath #poetry #communityofpoetry #poetryhive #bookcollection #booksandbeans #booksandcoffee https://www.instagram.com/p/B2ezq4vnNfx/?igshid=1uwdvqlw86vs1

☠️ Rereading Treasure Island (again!) with @thebookboy. This is such a classic adventure story, I just love it! I know I just reread it last year, but I'm in the middle of watching the series Black Sails, which is a prequel to Treasure Island, which really made me want to read it again. Thanks for the recommendation @james_trevino , it's so good! One of my problems with the book is its lack of diversity (pretty much all the characters are straight white males) but the series really makes up for it. 🏝️ Fun fact: Treasure Island is the only book I collect. These are my favorite 4 of the 11 editions I have (check out my stories for the rest). Which is your favourite? . . . . . #currentlyreading #bookstagram #bookworm #igreads #bibliophile #amoleggere #bookish #met_createchange #booksandbeans #culturetripbooks #treasureisland #robertlouisstevenson #pocketbooks #whitesfine #indigolibrary #wordsworthcollectorseditions #bookcollection #beautifulbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BsxrCe7nmRC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1znwggsnob0h
