Things Gwyneth Berdara is iconic for that have nothing to do with a man:

Saving the children of Sangravah

Being so much the best researcher in the Night Court’s main library that she was personally assigned by Clotho to be the best scholar’s research assistant

Knowing Nesta had value and worth the moment she first saw her

Overcoming her fears and trauma and becoming the first priestess to sign up for self defense training

Being a badass at that training, with the best flexibility and balance

Introducing the Valkyries to Nesta and a whole future plot of ACOTAR

Having the voice of a literal angel that brought Nesta to tears and also lead her to find the Harp

Writing a whole chapter in the Valkyrie book about them and the work they’re doing

Forging a found sisterhood with Nesta and Emerie that fills their hearts and heals them

Becoming the first new Valkyrie by cutting the ribbon first and changing the whole course of fate

Pushing her sisters to be the first to defeat the unbeatable obstacle course and become the first females to ever qualify for the Illyrian Blood Rite

Overcoming her fears again to go to Nesta in her time of need

Tricking the Illyrians who wanted to kill her friends by watching the beasts’ behavior and using them to set a trap

Fighting to the death for her sisters and being willing to sacrifice her own life to hold the bridge

Choosing the hardest way up the mountain to prove to themselves that they can do it, with an arrow sticking out of her thigh

Winning the Blood Rite and becoming the first non-Illyrian to bear the title of Carynthian

Tamlin and Feyre from the ACOTAR series

•

finally finished the first triology and i made some sketches while reading it, this was the coolest one the other one are just head studies and nonesense stuff, tbh im a lil scared of this fandom but i couldnt resist showing you how cool my mind is ngl so enjoy or scroll 🫶🏻

This is so beautiful 🥺💖

Absolutely amazing how AO3 is a part of the internet that doesn't sneak in any ads and doesn't have an algorithm and doesn't watch you or record how much time you spend looking at each fic or whatever. It's just right there to use for free. Legend

Somebody please draw a modern Feysand version of this.

@lucienarcheron it still cracks me up that Feyre repeatedly had the thought process before they got together of, "He may never want to be with anyone like that again."

Feyre. Honey. I can appreciate how considerate of him you're being, but also, read the room.

Read him.

Rhys quite literally begging on his knees: I hope she wants me. I want her so bad she's so beautiful and I'm a monster and I don't want to scare her off but damn I want her so bad it's making me so fucken stupid and I —

Feyre is my favorite clueless little dumbo and I love her and then some SO much.

Acomaf 🩵

2) Which is your favourite series (tog, acotar or cc)

Crescent City and Acotar are right there next to each other ✨

3) Who is your favourite character? (And why?)

Feyre. I see so much of myself in her, and she’s ultimately who I’d like to be.

4) Do you have a favourite quote from one of the books?

“Only you know what breaks you, Cursebreaker.” 🥹

5) Favourite ship?

Feysand all the waaaayyyy 💜

6) Elriel or Gwynriel? Or neither?

Elriel. I love the “choice” aspect to it but also feel like Gwyn is such an interesting character that I’d love to see develop into a fearless, strong, independent valkyrie. I feel like much of her trauma is still there and giving her a boyfriend afetr being assaulted is doing the character a diservice. But, ultimately, I’ll love whatever Sarah throws at us 😂

7) Who’s the most underrated SJM character?

Hunt motherfu**** Athalar!!!! Why do people hate this cute little baby!? 🥺

8) Which character do you wish to learn more about?

Fury and Mor!!

9) Are there any characters you don’t like?

Oh I’m gonna get haaaate for this… I don’t particularly care for Lucien. I want him to have a happy ending but I don’t think he’s a great person as a whole (might have to do with trauma but still) and I don’t really care for his arc at this point. I’m more interested in Eris or even Tamlin 😅

10) Favourite bat boy?

Rhys has my whole heart 💜 but I want Cassian to be my bff…

11) Favourite court?/ Which one would you most like to live in?

Night is my fav but I’d love to live in Summer and have water related powers 🌊

12) Favourite SJM villain?

Erawan, hands down.

13) If you could change one thing in any of the books what would it be?

I’d release the Crescent City 3 she wrote first instead of the month one we got 🥲 I don’t hate it but I also think it’s not up to the series standards.

14) Favourite SJM theory?

That Mor is a crochan witch!!! I would LOVE for that to be true.

15) Favourite Archeron sister?

Feyre, hands down 🫶🏼✨

16) A character you feel is over-hated/ underrated

Over-rated: Azriel.

Look, I love him, but our boy has said 2 whole sentences over 5 books… I want to know more but he’s reaaally overrated at the moment…

Underrated: Rhys. Why the hate? I don’t get it🫠

17) Aelin, Bryce, or Feyre?

Feyre ✨

18) What’s your favourite character from each series?

Acotar: Feyre

TOG: Elide and Lysandra are tied for first place 🩵

CC: Hunt and Lidia 💖

19) If you wrote an acotar book what would you call it?

A court of give us the truth about who the fu** Amren is.

20) Who is your favourite acotar blogger?

I’ve so manyyy 🥺

21)What fics would you recommend to people who love the series?

I haven’t read that many actually, cause they usually put me off books… but definetely anything @illyriantremors or @the-lonelybarricade have written 🫶🏼✨

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

✨✨✨ Wishing just in case ✨✨✨

Late meeting at the town house 🌌

So many people get Rhysand and Feyre’s dynamic wrong.

Rhys and Feyre are mirrors, they both would and have done the “wrong” thing in order to save the ones they love. They both would rather take on the struggle alone then share the burden. They both don’t view themselves as worthy of what they have, and can only truly love themselves when they love each other. It’s why they work so well, they both mirror the other.

When Feyre says “I see you” to Rhys it’s incredibly powerful because she’s not only seeing him but herself. Feyre only begins to forgive herself for what she did UTM by realizing that she could never condemn Rhys for his actions, because she would have done the same.

Rhys hatred of Nesta over Elain, is because Nesta does not appreciate (at least outwardly) everything Feyre did. It’s not just about Feyre providing for the family and them not, it’s about her treatment she got for sacrificing everything. Rhys knows what’s that like, Rhys has done that and knows what it’s like to be insulted for it. And while he doesn’t ever try to defend himself when insulted he can’t bear to see Feyre insulted over her sacrifices.

It’s the same way Feyre cannot comprehend how people can disregard and insult what Rhys did to save his people. Feyre goes ape shit over any insult towards Rhys, but more or less tolerates Nesta’s abusive comments towards her.

It’s because she’s his mirror, and he is hers.

And if we’re think of in canon, despite all the problems and plotholes with the pregnancy it makes sense that Feyre would be quick to forgive. Feyre would do the same, if she knew Rhys was going to die she would do everything to find a cure before he died. It’s not right, but Feyre takes on the burden of others the same way Rhys does. She understands him and his actions better then anyone else. And he understands her equally as well.

It’s why they work so well and what most people get wrong about them. Feyre does not have “rose colored” glass for Rhys, she understands him. She knows she would make similar choices and she has made similar choices.

In August of 2021 I finished reading the mega-hit series: A Court of Thorns and Roses. I love these books, so of course I wanted to stay in Prythian a while longer. I designed a gown for each of the courts and did a little designer world building to go with them. This was a fun project, and I keep meaning to go back and create designs for the men and other key looks.

Bonus: My take on the Starfall gown
