Having even slightly popular mutuals is so cool. The king has bestowed upon me a like. Perhaps even a reblog

#how i feel about pretty much all of my mutuals #y'all are so cool #i feel like the dork in the corner getting attention from the popular kids

We heard you loud and clear! 👀 A majority of you voted for short hair. So here's the logical next question...

#a very specific shade of maroon #i cant describe it #its not bright red #but its not dark enough to give off purple undertones #its like a slightly brownish red #just enough that its like a diluted bright red #it looks like fire #but toned down fire #im not making any sense #that just what it looks like to me #red flames if you turned down the brightness #like a phone screen

What irks me most about the theory where Tamlin is being said to abdicate his title is the fact that it is tied closely with how he was dragged through the mud by Janet to get there. Acotar Tamlin is not someone who would need to do this at all, we wouldn't even be theorizing such a thing. When the canon portrayal and character assassination is the basis of this theory, it kind of means nothing in the end what anyone thinks because, it's finally Janet's choice what to do with him. And she is so uneven with his characterization, using him as she pleases instead of having any kind of integrity while writing him, its hard to believe logic will play a part in his plot at all. To me, as morbid as this sounds, SJM will no way give Tamlin a path where he abdicates his High Lord status with dignity, she will only do so by killing him or by humiliating him further and that is not something I can ever accept, especially if someone of a different court comes to snag his power and title from him.

Thinking about how my dog Max has big sad brown eyes, is a ginger, is the socialite of the household, was the runt of the litter and is part fox.

He also has a tragic love story, he is a widower twice, lost both his husbands. Both of which who were chocolate Labradors so he definitely had a type.

My dog is gay Lucien.

#if lucien was a dog and gay and named maxiumus kwazi cat captain barnacles sleepy then he would be my dog #i did not name my dog #just for the record #lucien vanserra

[achaotichuman]

this is so lucien and tamlin

#they would have a podcast too i’m afraid #<<<<<< #absolutely #but unlike the batboys where it's all about how to get girls who reject them #its just them being two dumb idiots together #the sudden burst into song is also very tamlin & lucien coded #“THATS A VERY RUGGED THING TO DO” #tamlin has said this #its canon #i said so

I hate this epidemic of male faes being hairless. Give my men some happy trails. A lil hair on their chest. Why are these primal beings BALD.

Would like to add to this that saying you shouldnt be calling people misogynistic for not liking or disagreeing with your opinions on a character isn’t getting offended.

I have been kind in all my opinions, I have never once questioned someone’s morality over a character. Yet it seems to be a favourite pastime for other people.

@lorcandidlucienwill You made a post discussing your opinion on whether or not Elucien will be rulers of Spring and I responded with my opinions in a respectful manner. You decided to be rude about it and I called out the fact that insulting people over a woman who does not exist is insane and for some reason that I cannot understand, you’re upset about that.

You opened a debate on it, and I replied with my thoughts and opinions, which is what happens in a fandom where we discuss things like this.

No one coming onto your blog, no one is attacking you if they disagree with you and express their reasons on an interpretation of a character. Just like when I make a rant or a critical analysis I expect people to but heads with me about it because we dont all view these characters the same way.

This is not about Elain or whether or not she will be ruler of Spring. This is about insulting people over a fictional character, which is way too common in this fandom.

I have also said in my reblog tags that I think you’re right and that I like your takes? Generally I just discuss what my interpretation of the same quotes you bring up are??

The only time I have vehemently disagreed was when I was reblogging someone who reblogged me, who reblogged you. At that point why do you care so much?

To call people misogynistic for not liking a character is wild to say the least. To then act as though me calling that out is me “getting offended” is another insult. Stop acting like I am talking about Elain as a character here, I am talking about insulting real people over fictional people.

I will say this once, and only once because I am hardly losing sleep over Elain in the slightest.

Throwing around the idea that everyone who disagrees with the theory Elain would make a good High lady is not a direct output of internalized misogyny. In fact, not caring about Elain at all, is not an output of misogyny either.

The idea that people only dislike her, or otherwise do not pay her as much notice as other characters is because of misogyny, is completely false at best, and a half-assed attempt at morally upping people at worst.

I am sorry, but on my desk alone I can count 12 books with female main characters who are incredibly feminine and do not end up a warrior with a sword in their hands. So, to accuse me of disliking or discrediting Elain because I have internalized misogyny, is an insult, no matter how you try to spin it.

Quite frankly, I do not like being accused of being a misogynist over a fictional character, so let me go over this once and only once.

Elain is not a main character as of yet. She is a side character and so is Lucien at the moment. Sure, it's pretty damn obvious both are being set up to have their own book, but for now other than the bonus chapter we see very, very little of Elain. And when we do, she makes no major impact to the reader other than to people who ship Elucien. I highlight the word reader, because obviously with the whole stabbing of Hybern she made a pretty big impact to the story itself.

Which I will remind she would have never been able to do if she had died in the Hybern Camps, which she got herself into and had to be rescued to get out, but I digress.

Lucien has more impact in the story than Elain, Nesta had more impact throughout the entire series than Elain. When we go back to the human lands in Acowar, we see more of Nesta. We are talking Nesta.

So, already, Elain is not the biggest character in the series, in fact she tends to cause more discord and harm than good. Whether she is aware of it or not.

In the first book this is because she is another mouth that Feyre has to feed. And appears as completely unaware of the hard work Feyre is putting in to hunt. Which already starts the reader off as underestimating her. Whether or not she was doing more behind the scenes is ignored by Feyre and the bias she has, therefore this is the only impression we get of Elain.

This was retconned later, but I am not going to ignore it since we are talking about impressions here and not about the legitimacy of the statement "Elain can't grasp things". This is what Feyre says first up in the book, which is where the reader is being given their first impressions and laying out their first thoughts of the characters.

Later on, Elain is still a very minor character. Nesta was the one who went to the wall to try and retrieve Feyre, not Elain.

In the next books, Elain does not want to be in the Faery lands, with good reason. She is very much to the side trying to handle her own trauma, the only time we see her come out of her shell a little bit is when she is Seering. Which the IC doesn't even use her for in Silver Flames, they get Nesta to do it. Nesta talks to the Cauldron, not Elain. Nesta scrys not Elain. Elain only scrys once if my memory does me justice, and it is hidden from the rest of the characters other than Feyre.

Like it not, (I know I don't like it, but I recognize it) The Night Court is the Court of interest within the Acotar series and Elain appearing as not a part of it, or as different from it, is reason for the reader to not pay her interest because they are focusing on what is happening in the Night Court. Its Elain being put to the side again, because at this point, she is a side character.

She was the one who was lured into the camps of Hybern by the Cauldron, which created a frustrating problem for the IC and Feyre, who are the MCs at this point.

She is probably going to be the next MC in the series, but up until now, unless you do ship Elucien or otherwise care about what happens to Lucien. There is not a massive need to care about Elain, leading to people either not caring about her, or not liking her.

Of course this isn't a reason to be anti of her, I'm pro Tamlin and he is somehow the most hated character in the series. But like being Pro Tamlin doesn't mean you're an abuse apologist, not really caring about Elain is not being a misogynist.

Why do I not care about Elain? Because simply put, she's a side character who I've never seen be very driven for anything in a way that wholly affected the plot, and no matter what your headcanons for her are, they are your headcanons, not mine. She is never focused on, and not in a 'we don't care about her because she's feminine' way, in a 'she simply has no relevancy yet' way.

And no, I don't care about her potential, because she isn't my favorite character. That's okay. I don't need her to be my favorite character to not be a misogynist. And no, I don't need to acknowledge her potential to not be a misogynist either.

To try and accuse people of being misogynistic to support your claim of Elain being a High Lady is a blunt sword at best. And it all comes down to one argument, why do you not like Elain?

Because as of right now, she has no drive, because she has no reason to have any drive, because at the moment she is a side character. I simply cannot stress that enough.

It does not matter, if she is one day going to be a main character, she is currently a side character who drives no plot and has no call to action.

Of course, the A Court of Thorns and Roses series is a fantasy romance, and Elain's story will be for the most part non-violent. Which I enjoy a lot more than warrior stories.

I do not read fantasy most of the time. I have read like four-five fantasy series in my life. I mostly read historical fiction, regency fiction, mysteries and retellings of fairytale tropes. Elucien's book will be filled with high society and navigating the political world rather than the battlefield. I will probably enjoy it more than Nesta or Feyre's journey.

That does not mean I need to care about her or think her to be a good ruler. Because I am more than happy to read a story of Lucien and Elain travelling the world in a way that Nesta and Feyre always wanted to and never did. In fact, I think it would be a better fit for both of them to find a life outside of Prythian, and outside of the box they were both shoved into. Because regardless of how you see it, Elain and Lucien were both forced into the places they are now.

But sure, I'm the misogynist for not wanting another journey to becoming a ruler despite being in your early twenties and never being prepared for it, story.

I am not trying to pick a fight with Eluciens. But I am trying to get the point across at how it is a fairly half-assed accusation to throw at someone over a fictional character.

Do I think that everyone has some level of internalized misogyny because of the society we live in? Absolutely. But to act as though it is pure misogyny coming out when we discuss Elain is just plain insult throwing. And I put it in the same box as people who say people who support Lucien and Tamlin are abuse apologists. Because it's an assumption you are making about a person's morals and thinking with no real basis.

No matter if you ship, Elain and Lucien or Elain and Azriel, or Elain and Gwyn or Elain and Eris, or whoever else in the acotar world. I believe trying to question another personal's morals over a fictional relationship, or character in general, is rude, inconsiderate and invasive.

I will repeat, I am not trying to pick a fight, I am terrified of fighting. But that doesn't mean I won't defend myself. Overall, this was not meant at all to question whether or not Elain will be High lady, and if I see discussion about that, I will assume you did not read my full argument and will be ignoring you.

So, to recap. Elain is a side character, and her not being your favorite character does not make you a misogynist. People not acknowledging, disliking, or otherwise 'sleeping on' Elain, does not make them a misogynist. That is a crazy accusation. We are already in a highly toxic fandom that throws around labels and sticks them to people who disagree with them over characters. Let's not add to that.

I think if you can't make a critical analysis without sticking a label to someone than you haven't made an analysis.

Let's be honest, all the 'arguing' is supposed to be a debate, not a real argument. Unless the person you are arguing with is being deliberately disrespectful, then there is no reason to insult someone's person. Debates can get heated while still being respectful.

Calling someone an abuse apologist, telling someone they have internalized misogyny when you've never met them in person, or otherwise trying to degrade someone else's argument by insulting them, is childish. I am not going to allow any arguments against this whatsoever, because this shouldn't be up for debate.

Hating on a character because they are feminine is misogynistic. Obviously. But not caring for a character because they are a side character or have caused more problems than done good is simply not liking a character.

And let's be honest for a second, some people just don't like characters because they just simply aren't interested, and that is okay. You are not morally right, and they are not morally wrong.

This was a very long-winded rant, all to say, stop insulting people who have done nothing other than no agreed with a statement you made about a character. It's just not a nice thing to do at all.

And no, this was not a list of reasons of why you shouldn't care about Elain, this is MY reasoning for not caring about Elain in the present time.

You can argue that Elain did make some impression on the reader in x scene in x book at x time. But it didn't an impression on me, which led me to not caring about her. It's fruitless to argue that point with me unless we are engaging in a debate about Elain as a character.

And this was not meant to be a comment on Elain as a character, nor on what I think her story will be. This is a direct comment on the idea of people being misogynistic for not liking Elain. It's an insane comment to make.

I will repeat for the hundredth time, some people don't care for Elain because she is a side character. Some people don't like her because of the kind of impact she made on them. And some people just don't like her vibes. All of which are not rooted in misogyny. Her story has not been told, at all, we don't need to care about her yet.

Okay bye.

Fandom: God there’s like NO content anymore. I wish we could get more art and fanfics :(((

Someone: Hey, I can’t draw anything digitally, because I can’t afford a tablet, but here’s a pen on paper drawing that I spent a lot of time and hard work on. Also, I took a shot at my first fanfic and I’d really like some feedback or at least some kudos if you enjoyed it :)

Fandom: Oh... yeah sorry no... not you. We actually meant writers that are already well known and popular to produce MORE content... I mean, if a popular blog shares your work then maybe. And we don’t really like pen to paper art. We just don’t think it’s professional or even looks good :/

[achaotichuman]

When that one sentence in chapter 2 that you forgot about contradicts something you wrote in chapter 24 and now you have to make things ten times more complicated, so everything makes sense because you refuse to retcon anything.

#and this is what happens when we don't outline #this was my first ever multi chapter fic that i started over six months ago so i am giving myself some grace #fanfiction #fanfic writer #writing

[achaotichuman]

it is so incredibly sad to constantly see kids on instagram and tiktok who are younger than my brother have to literally beg for shelter, food, water, medicine, and their right to exist as human beings

i mean, this young girl is only ten years old, yet she is essentially responsible for convincing random people scrolling through instagram that her and her family’s life are worth fighting for

on top of that, their gofundme is not even 10% funded and time is running out, please if you can’t donate, just share

please don’t let this little girl die begging

And a day closer leaves us at four! Two meanings for our rose count today. Four roses can signify the four seasons, and that though they may change, the love you have for the one which you are giving the roses to will remain constant, and in a somewhat related way, they can also mean "nothing will stand between us or do us apart," and my dears, those sound like wedding vows. So in the reality where ACOTAR was a standalone,

#50-100 years later #feyre wants to travel before she settles #and tam tam wants to do whatever makes her happy

Less downer Tamlin post: ideal acotar 6 Tamlin plot

Elain and Lucien (and Jurian and Vassa) hsve to help stabilize Spring because nasty beasties have been bleeding into the human lands and its a Problem. Elain is "allowed" to go bc she wants to help and this is not super dangerous as far as missions go.

Tamlin, Elain and Lucien become the new BFF triad.

Gwyn somehow is relevant and we discover she is Lucien's grand-niece and Tams daughter. Hooray! Theyre all family and Gwyns newfound family leads into a gwynriel book (I guess, I do not care about gwynriel though it seems likely). Gwyn and Tamlin play music together. His Big Love Story is with Lucien and his daughter.

Something happens with Koschei and its solved in an unrealistically short amount of time, reliant on a last minute solution that was never foreshadowed at all. Tamlin helps.

Beron dies and Eris becomes HL (this has nothing to do with Tamlin).

Helion lives so Lucies HL future is promised but not delivered (also has nothing to do with Tamlin)

Elain and Lucien decide to live in Autumn on the border so they can see his mom and Tamlin a lot.

First born child is Tamlin jr.

The end.
