Listen to Blue Velvet on TIDAL
I'm so much more
Than I let you see
Stay close, go
Too close, darling
You arch your back
And keep me on track
Your breath stops
We both know that you won't stay
[…]
I'm enough to be safe
I want you to sail away till it's safe
I need you to hide away, I need you to fly away
I want you to save enough till it's safe
I started reading ACOTAR right before the new book announcements happened and my social flooded with “you MUST read the entire Massverse before October”
So when I finished ACOTAR I decided what the heck I’ll do it and have been alternating between reading an SJM and then other books I want to read
I just figured out my timeline to October 27th and obviously the cauldron has blessed my kindle or smth bc - without having tried to - I can continue to alternate weekly between other books and SJM books, then reread ACOTAR, and everything fits in perfectly before the new book. Magic ✨
Fresh from my notes app:

A headcanon I have is Elain having a mini panic attack everytime Lucien is introduced into the room, and yet she compartmentalizes all of it perfectly. Gives herself a little pep talk—keep the peace. Make it look seamless. Blend in.
And yet … sigh.
One particular bad day though, she’s invited down for tea with him. Elain halts in front of the door; stares at the handle, mentally forcing herself to twist it but her hand just won’t budge.
Open it, her mind screams.
She blinks once. Twice.
Open it.
Voices beyond blur out.
Is this a dream?
Is this real?
Open. It.
Fingers hover, shaking, begging.
“You don’t have to go in,” A quiet voice interrupts her spiraling from behind.
Azriel.
Of course, Azriel. The male lingers in quiet corners like it’s a personal habitat.
“If you don’t want to, don’t go in.”
She doesn’t turn but a subtle burn accumulates against her eyes. How easily he notices stuff. How easy it is for him to read her body language.
Suddenly, there’s a warm presence at her back. Gentle as a breeze, Azriel tugs the fabric of her skirt twice. To say hey. I’m here. It was their little secret.
Emotion clogs her throat. “I …”
“What do you need?” says the soft, soothing timbre of his voice.
What do you need?
No one asks her that but him.
To remind her she has a choice.
“I,” But the thoughts are stuck just like her hovering hand. Like her.
“Say the word and I can fly us out. Just nod.”
Us. Not you.
She reluctantly shakes her head.
Silence.
“All right,” He sighs. “All right. Do you need a moment?”
A nod.
“Do you want me to leave you alone?”
Quick shake of head.
“Good. I wasn’t going anywhere.”
Elain’s hand drops, and his clenches by his side.
“Can I … ” Az hesitates, “Can I offer you a hug?”
She stills.
Say yes. Please, say yes.
Elain gives him the smallest of nods, as if asking something for herself was truly bothersome—a burden.
Yet, as soon as her chin dips, Azriel’s forearm slides against her clothed collarbone, pulling her into him, his chest flush against her back, like it’s the surest, easiest thing he’s ever done. His other arm locks on top of the one holding her, grounding not just her but him as well.
“Ellie Rose.” He whispers her middle name like the secret it is, and instinctively, a knot loosens inside, “You are okay. You will be okay, I promise.”
Elain reaches back, looping a pinky through one of his belt loops.
“I’m … I can do this.”
Words. In his arms, she finds words.
“You can,” He echoes. “Just know that it can’t happen to you until you let it.”
Elain tugs the loop like he tugged her skirt. Twice. “And you will be right outside?”
“Not going anywhere, remember?”
They stay just like that, him with his arms around her from behind and her hanging onto his belt loop like the saving grace it was.
No. I will save myself.
Elain squares her shoulders, and steps out of his embrace, turning to face him. Midair, a shadow flickers in between them.
“At any point you feel like there’s too much noise,” soft fingers reach up to curl a strand of hair behind her ear, tinkling her earring in the process, “Just flick this little thing. Shadow will know.”
I will know.
Because I’m right here.
The shadow disappears in Elain’s hair.
Her doe eyes stare and stare at him, drowning in the strength of his unwavering gaze. “Okay.”
“Okay?”
She breathes in. “Okay.”
I can't wait for the Elriel friendship to hit. Give me another late night conversation after months of silence and a whispered "I missed you" & "i missed you too". Give me banter mid-air. Give me Elain pulling practical jokes on him because she's secretly making him pay. Give me Az spraying her with some water while watering her plants. Them having a water fight in her green house. Gimme inside jokes so unique, it leaves the other grinning and the whole room confused. Gimme long hugs and "just a few more minutes".
I can't wait for the Elriel tension to hit. Gimme forbidden eye contact across ballrooms. Gimme a kneeling Azriel lacing up her shoes. Strapping his knife to her leg. Gimme Elain riling him up in a room full of family, and Az turning the tables with his shadows inching up her thighs. Gimme those "we shouldn't" kinda proximities but no one moves away. Gimme trapped-against-the-door wood-on-the-dresser-groaning kinda intensity. Gimme them giving into it and fucking each others brains out. Fucking in dark hallways, closets, infirmaries. Every forbidden surface.
I can't wait for the Elriel angst to hit. Let them bear those sad eyes because they can't be each others. Let them exchange letters in passing, trace their handwriting, smell the paper because what else can they do? Let them have a "she fell first, he's on sun's gravity now" kinda aura. Let Azriel stare at his headache powder through a headache. Name it. Talk to it. Go insane over it. Let Elain hyperventilate in empty hallways because she heard him laugh with Gwyn. Saw her necklace on Gwyn. Give me confessions in rain, angsty fights, even angstier separations.
Give me ACOTAR 6.
I just finished House of Sky and Breath and if it weren’t midnight I’m sure I’d be running around the house screaming
Elain's Secret Little Library
A girl can garden and fck. They're not mutually exclusive 😉🫦
.
well if this isn’t just freaking goshdarned PERFECT for Azriel’s big pride-and-prejudice-slash-bridgerton speech to Elain
Somebody make it happen ASAP please, I have not sobbed enough
I just got to chapter 66 of House of Earth and Blood and can I just say
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING OH MY GOODLY GODLINGTONS
Knowing tomorrow is my third elriel month makes me realize how long I've been in this fandom. But im so glad that when elriel is canon, the next elriel month will be so peakkk
I KNOW.
This is the LAST elriel month before we officially get elriel, Im so excited for the ship and its future.
Right? Its been so long we have been resilient in shipping elriel, year after year, to think we’re finally going to get rewarded with them becoming endgame in 6 months time 💖😭
I love that I managed to swoop into the ACOTAR fandom just in time for a few months of intense Elriel yearning with y’all before books 6 & 7
Happy Elriel Month!!! 🌸🦇💙

hi I’m new here and SORRY WHAT
this is a genuine bonus chapter written by SJM?
hahahahhahaha okay I’m fine
I bring thee
The first instalment of notes what I made to amuse myself (#nwimtam)
(Without spoiling me)
What’s the tea with Crescent City?
I remember reading that it can take a while to get into.
The modern tech is actually okay, it’s Bryce being a party girl that is hitting me weird.
(Largely because my body has never been reliable enough to enjoy such things, so I guess it’s hitting my insecurities which is not exactly what you want from a fantasy novel XD)
And…the descriptions of her appearance feel creepily male-gazy.
(Again, my insecurities go brrr. I know it’s me not the writing.)
Azriel be like:
“What if the Cauldron was wrong?” I love her.
“You can’t order me to do that.” I love her.
“I can help her.” I love her.
“What of Elain?” I love her.
“I’m getting her back.” I love her.
“She doesn’t need anything.” I love her.
“It would be an invasion of her privacy to track him.” I love her.
“Wait until everyone is seated before eating.” I love her.
“We’re the ones who need … a Seer.” I love her.
“Would you like me to show you the garden?” I love her.
“What happened to Elain?” I love her.
“This is Truth-teller. I won’t be using it today—so I want you to.” I love her.
“Sit. I’ll take care of it.” I love her.
“Would you want people betting on you?” I love her.
“I’d feel bad for the mice.” I love her.
“We need Helion to get these chains off her.” I love her.
“There is an innate darkness to the Dread Trove that Elain should not be exposed to.” I love her.
“You don’t—don’t apologize. Never apologize. It’s I who should…” I love her.
“This was a mistake.” I love her.
“Are you hurt?” I love her.
“My shadows don’t like the flames so much.” I love her.
“I lost the snowball fight today.” I love her.
“You’d know if she died. Right here—you’d know, Cass.” I love her.
