Aelin and Rowan ship but anything with the series is welcome

Rowan: I am an ancient immortal fae prince with very high standards

Aelin: *flips Rowan off while drunk and half passed out on a rooftop*

Rowan: I want that one.

Listen. Feysand’s got an enemies to friends to lovers trope, dark romance AND fluffy romance trope, hades/persephone trope, mutual pinning trope, fake dating trope, bed sharing trope, soulmate trope, and people just expect me to get over them?

Aelin, nodding appreciatively as Rowan leaves the room: That’s Terrasen’s Ass™️

Rowan: damn right it’s Terrasen’s Ass™️

Rowaelin Child: How did you and daddy fall in love?

Aelin: Well…

*cut to scene of them having a fist fight in the middle of the fucking woods*

Aelin: It’s a long, long story.

He Finds His Queen

Queen of Shadows Chapter 28 from Rowan’s Point of View

Rowan snuck off the ship and onto the docks of Rifthold with barely the finesse of a rookie spy. He was tired from two weeks crouched in the bowels of the boat with very little to eat and weak from the retching that accompanied his magic being ripped from him. Unfortunately—or fortunately—the spell that stifled his powers did very little nothing to hinder his Fae senses. And Rowan smelled just as bad as the filthy streets of Adarlan’s capital.

He didn’t dare ask for directions to the slum districts. In his black cloak with his immense size, he was already an imposing figure prowling the alleys, he didn’t need any extra attention on him. Or any curious followers for that matter. Because he was going to find his queen, and he’d be damned if he led any unsavory creatures to her.

The reek of piss and refuse made his eyes water and, Rowan realized with a start, some of it was coming from him. He had half a thought to douse himself with the water in a nearby trough or slip an innkeeper a copper to use her washroom. No, too many people would notice him, get a good look at his face, perhaps notice the pointed ears beneath the dark cloak. No, Aelin would just have to deal with his scent. Gods know he dealt with hers.

ok BUT

A modern AU where Rowaelin aren’t together yet

Rowan stumbled into he and Aelin’s shared apartment just past three in the morning after a brutal night of drinking with Aedion.

He flung the door open, crashing into a table in the foyer and nearly knocking over the ridiculous Tiffany lamp sitting on top of it that Aelin had spent a small fortune on. 

Aelin padded out of her bedroom, a yawn escaping her lips as she rubbed blearily at her eyes. “Rowan?” she murmured. 

Just the sound of his name in her voice made Rowan’s heart do a gods damned backflip. Gods, how long had she been making him feel like this?

He tried to take a step towards her, but stubbed his toe on the couch and fell forward with a brutal series of curses escaping his mouth. Aelin lunged forward, catching him by the shoulders and leaning him against her. She walked him around the couch and set him down gently on the seat. Aelin ran her fingers briefly through his close cropped silver hair before whispering gently into his ear, “I’ll be right back.”

Gods, his head wouldn’t stop spinning. Just how shit-faced had he and Aedion gotten? Rowan realized just how cold his body felt without Aelin there, and was just about to call her back before she emerged from the kitchen carrying some advil and a glass of water.

When Rowan just shook his head, his brain feeling too foggy to form the right words, Aelin just gave him a glare that left him reconsidering, her Ashryver eyes bright and concerned in the darkness. She watched as he took the pills and drank the water, sighing approvingly when he finally swallowed. Aelin took the glass from him, setting it down on the small table and sat down next to him, tucking her feet in under her. She shifted close and took his hand, squeezing it gently. “You should go to bed,” she murmured. 

It was in that moment, when Rowan took in her exhausted eyes, the lengths she went to to help him, the closeness of her body to his, the rush of emotions he’d felt as soon as she’d walked through the door–

“I fucked up,” he said. “Oh gods, I fucked up.”

Aelin lifted her gaze to him, concern filling her eyes. “Why? What happened?”

“I–,” Rowan started, the words catching in his throat, trying to form the sentence he never would have said sober. “I’m falling for someone.”

Aelin seemed to pull away the slightest bit, a flash of what almost looked like jealousy passing through her eyes. It was gone as soon as he noticed it, and Rowan was left questioning if it was ever there at all. 

“Damn,” said Aelin, forcing an almost too-bright smile on her face. “Must be a real special person to get the heartless Rowan Whitethorn to fall in love.”

Rowan held her gaze, pine green eyes absolutely unflinching in the white moonlight. His silver hair gleamed especially bright, and Aelin could have sworn something in her chest cracked looking at him. 

“Yes,” he whispered. “She is.”

Rowan learning Wyrd marks in order to draw a map in Aelin’s tattoo so she can find her way home and back to him but also

Rowan first learns the wyrd mark for open when he helps Aelin get the shackles and mask off

And can you imagine it? After the whole take it off scene, after wyrd marks are the only thing that can get the mask off, Rowan probably decides he has to learn them, has to be as strong and capable as possible to help her

I love how this thread stretches across the book, from her escape from Maeve to the world walking scene after the lock.

It’s just. Really nice to see Aelin have someone fight just as hard for her as she fights for herself.

[skskskskdkdnfnfnfnf]

it’s been months and it’s STILL so wild to me how aelin killed the gods. she literally killed the gods. name a better queen ill wait

[cervoss]

““And tell Rowan,” Aelin said, fighting her own sob, “that I’m sorry I lied. But tell him it was all borrowed time anyway. Even before today, I knew it was all just borrowed time, but I still wish we’d had more of it.” She fought past her trembling mouth. “Tell him he has to fight. He must save Terrasen, and remember the vows he made to me. And tell him … tell him thank you—for walking that dark path with me back to the light.””
