Idk about y’all but the idea of a rejected mating bond is so incredibly unromantic to me it makes me cringe. Who would want that

I mean rejected mate is a trope but oh well

I can't believe there are people in this fandom who say Mor lied about what happened at Autumn Court and led Azriel on for centuries. We have people say Gwyn, an SA survivor, has manipulate everyone with her lightsinger power and she wasn't actually SA'ed and undermine her strength in Blood Rite. We have people say Feyre overreacted and minimise her trauma and depression to nothing after UTM and calling her ungrateful...

All of these over another man's action...

While Eris didn't try to help her and y'all make a hero out of him for not touching her. I know why he did it but the fact that you all find an excuse for his actions and go as far as calling Mor a liar because you try to find more excuse for him. (don't forget he slut shamed her in front of all the high lords...)

While Azriel is the one who's been panting after Mor for centuries while Mor couldn't be more obvious about how she doesn't want to do anything with him and you didn't even consider how she might not trust him enough to tell him the truth but somehow... Mor is at fault. Somehow Azriel, not even trying to talk to her once and discuss their situation and create a safe space for her and try to be her real friend instead of trying to be in a relationship with her and waiting for a mate bond to snap, is the victim here... you all don't find his actions creepy at all because he's a "shadow daddy". While Azriel still couldn't say he's over Mor to Rhysand and at the same time tried to fck Elain without thinking anything more about her (no future whatsoever), but somehow... somehow is Gwyn's fault, who used her lightsinger power to prevent it to happen and manipulate Azriel all the same... all of this is being said because of Azriel's own actions and you don't want to blame him and hold him accountable for his doings, so you find (create) these disgusting excuses.

While Tamlin only sat there for 3 months and didn't even try to help Feyre and y'all excuse his lack of action for protecting, but he could get her alone right before the night of her last trial... while he sat there begged on his knees and didn't even try to stop Amarantha, and in the main time each bones in Feyre's body was breaking. And you still find an excuse for him locking Feyre and not listening to her about how she's suffering, how she's drowning, for him being "traumatised"... but Feyre died for him and saved his court and people and the whole Prythian and destroyed herself in the process but you all don't even see it... and go as far as calling Feyre a coward for hesitating to kill those faeries...

Nesta and Azriel were out of character in HOFAS

Bryce almost kills them twice.

Bryce try’s to escape Nesta and Az by getting the Wyrm to kill them. Then she feels bad about it so she goes back to help them, and they’re all like “yeah, it’s cool no biggie.” (Like what!? She just proved that she cannot be trusted!)

THEN she releases a fuckin’ Daglan/Asteri into their world THAT SHE DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO KILL YET!! AND Nesta is the one to kill it and fix Bryce’s mess!

You are telling me that Nesta STILL gives her the mask!? I understand that SJM was probably trying to make it a kindred spirit kind of understanding between Nesta and Bryce but I don’t believe it.

The Nesta I know would be raging over her people being endangered by this rude stranger. Her character is very defensive and protective of her friends/family.

To me, Nesta and Azriel seem like the two IC members who would immediately take no chances with this stranger. They’ve both shown themselves to be the type to keep their guard up, “bite first ask questions later” kind of people.

Also I thought that the sword and dagger “reuniting prophecy” would mean Prynthian and Midgard uniting to fight the Asteri together. Bryce was so high on her own “chosen one” shit when she stole the dagger for herself. That prophecy could have been so much more but it fell flat.

I was excited about the multiverse thing and now I just want to forget it happened.

I feel icky.

Y’all ever stop to realize that there’s not one explanation as to why Nesta chose to baby Elain over Feyre? Nor is there a reason as to why Nesta hates Rhysand. Stg everything Rhys does is explained over and over, but with Nesta it’s all just brushed aside.

I keep saying nesta stans are braindead

Am I the only one who when reading acotar, if it’s not an actual plot point about something, then I genuinely don’t care?

Lemme explain

When people hate on Rhys and Feyre for getting a fifth house after the war when their people are trying to rebuild the city. It’s like?? Thats never been brought up as an issue in the books so why should I care about that? Why should you care about that?

(Besides the fact that in ACOFAS, the people have to force feyre to go home and stop helping)

Or when people say they dislike feyre because she ‘destroyed the spring court’ and ‘made hundreds of people from the spring court homeless.’ Like that is not a major plot in the book. We literally do not know anything about any of spring court people that fled.

Not to mention that 1.) feyre told tamlin she would do exactly that and he didn’t listen 2.) all feyre did was expose tamlin. Every instance, she gave him a chance to do the right thing and he didn’t EVERY. TIME. 3.) tamlin had already teamed up with prythians BIGGEST ENEMY, an EVIL king. You think that was gonna end well for the spring Court even if feyre hadn’t intervened??

But my point is, why should you care about this hypothetical situation that we don’t even know is accurate enough to have it as a reason to dislike feyre??

Did tamlin’s people abandon him? Yes. Do we know for certain that they’re homeless? No.

they could actually be thriving, happily in another court for all we know.

But considering the kind of high lord tamlin was, I’m fairly certain those people are better off.

Tamlin was willing to let his people starve if they couldn’t pay taxes. Tamlin sided with Ianthe sooo much, even after she sold out Feyre’s sisters, to the point that he allowed one of his won soldiers to be whipped even after that soldier exposed ianthe for using magic on him. Tamlin sided with Hybern and allowed his forced to come into his last. Tamlin beat up Lucien and was physically violent with feyre. Tamlin did NOTHING under the mountain.

And it would be different if we got to meet a spring court inhabitant that fled tell their story and show that that did in fact happen and that feyre ruined the lives of all these people. But we didn’t.

“Whatever you did … it worked. Tamlin’s sentries abandoned him. Over half his people refused to appear for the Tithe two days ago. Some are leaving for other courts. Some are murmuring of rebellion. It seems you made yourself quite beloved. Holy, even.”

Abandoned him. Leaving for other courts. Murmuring of rebellion. Not scrapping for food. Not homeless. All feyre did was show them exactly who tamlin was. The people of the spring court finally saw that and abandoned him. They loved feyre enough to leave their homes, to possibly rebel against tamlin. You think they would love feyre this much if they had to flee and were on the brink of starvation and homelessness? No.

But it’s feyre fault that his people left him because they hypothetically could’ve become homeless? You hate her because of this? Oh ok

Or the people that hate Rhys for the hypothetical children of the court of nightmares that are stuck there.

Like what is the point in making up these problems and scenarios that aren’t plot points in the book in order to dislike/hate on characters?

And I feel like it’s just Feysand that gets this type of hate where someone has to bring up these situations and problems that aren’t even rlly mentioned in the books?

Like I could understand mentioning the female Illyrian wing clipping. (even tho that was completely explained in the books, but I digress.) something that actually happens in the book and is an actual plot point and we see an actual character effected by (emerie)

But to bring up stuff like that, I’m just genuinely like?? Why should I care?? Why should that make me dislike Feysand?

I just don’t get it.

Does this make sense?? Is this just me?? Pls let me know

you’ll NEVER turn me against miss feyre archeron, cursebreaker, defender of the rainbow, the sweet tongue liar, lady of many faces, princess of carion, cauldron blessed, stars eternal, HIGH LADY OF THE NIGHT COURT.

Im gonna cry cause this is literally one of the cutest things I ever read 😭

I want what they have istg 🥹⭐️🩵

( starfall chapter is one of my favorite chapter of all times ngl. It made me cry cause I feel so bad for Rhysand but also laugh and just CUTENESS OVERLOAD 🫠 )

I need sjm to bring this energy back

and this is what happens on twitter… and our fandom is still called misogynistic

Too bad they forgot Elain cooks and cleans for free lmao

At least Gwyn is payed for it

If I had a nickel every time a set of twins was conceived during a mysterious and anonymous fertility rite I'd have two nickles.

Which isn't a lot. But it's weird that it happened twice.

sjm was too lazy to create a decent background for lidia so she copied gwyns

The way Bryce is so dismissive and rude and to Hunt here

Bryce you're not leading. You have no leadership qualities. You're just making reckless impulsive choices with no regard to those around you.

There was literally no reason for Bryce not to simply say to Hunt and the others "Hey I recognise these caves. They're the same as the one's on the home world. I know the way, we need to go into the river". But instead she keeps them in the dark and just recklessy does what she wants

This is such a low blow

Bryce was garbage in cc3. It cheapened the couple dynamic and development and totally ruined them for me.

I don't know what sjm was thinking.
