You guys bicker like teenagers on here 😂 This is an adult fandom bbs..Why are y’all having race debates in the first place? Obviously people want Hulu to stick to the books. Yall just be on here talking nonsense. I’m black and I just be sitting back here judging yall fr 💀 stop being embarrassing and chill

Hey anon

I won't lie I didn't even know what you were talking about. Race debates? Hulu?

But you're talking about the other anon who experienced racism when she offered up a black actress as her Feyre fancast.

And you're calling it bickering and nonsense... And you're calling this an adult fandom even though the first trilogy is YA which is marketed towards teenagers...

Maybe stick to sitting back and judging? And we'll stick to bickering and being embarrassing. Because nobody got anything from you commenting this.

Help??? I think this is by definiton a negative effect of booktok? Obviously men grooming women started since men were thing, but now media has convinced women that it’s okay and attractive? It also permits the behavior of younger men by saying “we prefer older men because they’re more mature” no babe they’re just better at manipulation 😭, saying that just allows guys to get away with shitty behavior longer. Younger guys are equally bad they just don’t have the skill to hide it yet (obviously I’m referring to men like this, not all men do not come at me with not all men)

But seriously?? all the girls genuinely frothing at the mouth and not as joke is concerning. Now if they were like 30 and the guy was 45 whatever, but these are TEENAGE girls who would legitimately jump at the chance of dating a man 20 yrs older than them

Also fuck Rhysand, he 100% would say that to his 19 yr old wife

So tired of the “bad bitch” trope. Why does she have to be bad? Why does she have to be a bitch? Why does she have to become worse than them?

Why can’t she be strong, clever and compassionate? Why can’t her experiences shape her into a better person?

What happened to characters like Hermione, Luna, Arwen, Galadriel, Éowyn, Katniss, Susan and Tris? Women who inspired us to be the best version of ourselves?

I’m tired of watching mean girls fuck shit up.

READ ON AO3 | Rating: Explicit | Pairing: Tamlin x Eris

Summary: Eris ensures that Tamlin doesn't ignore the rite this year. Another Calanmai fic, hehe.

A/N: YES I know I'm coming in HOT with this one, but y'all gotta trust me. This is a fun/quick little two parter that I'm working on. Here's the first chapter that I was supposed to post on Wednesday for tamlinweek but then my inner critic squashed that dream.

A special thank you to @chunkypossum, @acourtofladydeath @pippsmcgee and @queercontrarian who dragged me kicking and screaming over the finish line for this one.

cc: @nocasdatsgay b/c you are fantastic and asked me to be tagged on this <3 AND @climbthemountain2020 because I promise I'd post this asap <3

#eris vanserra x tamlin #tamlin x eris vanserra #tamris #eris vanserra #stt writing #This is not my usual fare but HERE YA GO.#stt speedwriting 2024 #the fic that no one asked for #but you got anyway #tamlin acotar

I honestly think that the ACOTAR series and it's characters are more complicated than fans give it credit for. Like a lot of fantasy readers in the modern age of booktok and all that shit always seem to crave a morally gray character, but when a character is actually morally gray they sort of...don't acknowledge it?

Because pretty much every single character in that series except for the obvious villains (Amarantha, king of hybern) are morally gray. Including Tamlin.

He's a really interesting case because he has these abusive behaviors, this consistent like Giving Up where he just heeds to his anger and his powers, but his entire driving force is that he doesn't want to be like his cruel, murderous father. Like, his essential action as a character is in direct conflict with his base characteristics, like isn't that so interesting??? But he's always just chalked up to the abusive anger issues ex who doesn't deserve any more chances because he already gave so many up. Like...do people know that even if a character is a Bad Guy, like a real bad guy, not your charming, suave, comedic villain bad guy, but like a guy who's fucked up and broken and mean and sad, can still be a compelling, multi-dimensional character?

And Rhysand. He's a super interesting character because though his intentions all come from the same place of like striving for peace and unity and other virtuous shit like that, he's still willing to overwrite his OWN MORALS if it means working towards getting what he wants--remember when he left a head in Tamlin's garden? I had totally forgotten about that because he never really exhibited any behavior that matched that, but if we think about it it was pointing to this facet of his character where, at least a the start of the series, he was willing to do a lot of fucked up shit for the greater good.

Which is like the definition of a morally gray character. But when comparing the two, often he's just taken as The Better One who can do no wrong and like rose above his role in society and would Never Ever treat Feyre like an object...which...he kind of did? Obviously not to the same level as Tamlin, or in the same way, but like for a lot of the beginning of ACoMaF he was pretty much Also using her as a piece in his personal war effort that he like didn't really fully inform her about for like...kind of a while.

Idk I know I'm rambling, sorry this is so long, but like I could make an entire other post about how FEYRE is ALSO super morally gray and like a lot of the point of her character is that she's like kinda fucked up and does fucked up things and has a lot of healing to do and makes mistakes even when she's still in the active process of like getting better, like the whole essence of her is that she's Not perfect, not that people don't get that, just that it's interesting that people will uphold these characters, her and Rhysand and the whole inner circle, and praise them and love them unconditionally, but when it comes to characters like Tamlin, they are deemed undeserving of a second chance because the bad shit they did was a) done to the main character(s) and b) magnified much more than the protagonists misgivings. Idk it's super early, I'm just rambling, I'm sorry

Am I the only person who ages characters up in my mind? Like a character will be 17-20ish and saving the world and that’s cool and all but I’m older than you and don’t even know how to do my taxes. You are no younger than 25-30 MINUMUM. There’s literally no need for you to be a child.

I really want people to flood my inbox with their rants about authors and books they just can't stand, especially YA because it's so gloriously and passionately unhinged and I love it. But I am aware that I'm a tiny little blog that no one knows or interacts with. And despite being on this site for over a decade, I still don't understand the dark alchemy that drives this place.

But, hey, if you do see this, feed me your hatred. Be as vitriolic as your heart desires. Be unreasonable, be irrational. I won't judge you. I won't argue with you. I will accept your rage as my own.

Hmm...maybe this will help: Sarah J. Maas Antis, come to me and offer me your hatred

You know what, I'm about to go somewhere without internet access for a few days, so I'm going to blaze this and see what happens when I come back. For fun.

Being in the little fantasy world you created in your head is so comforting. Like no drama nothing, just you and your scenarios living peacefully.

#gwynrielweeks2024 day six: mates.

since acosf came out i had this feeling that gwyn and az could have a beautiful connection, honestly I love both of them and think that the little moments when they coexist together are really cute and wholesome. I love that they love music, they’re warriors, they’re determined and love loveee that Azriel’s shadows are calm and curious around gwyn.🌌🦇🗡️✨

— do you like this ship?

i like that sjm let us know she doesn't camp out within the fandom somewhere, so she doesn't see all the theories people come up with. sjm writes for herself first and foremost, i think this bodes well for us eluciens and gwynriels

Rhysta shippers have this incredibly weird fixation with Rhys manipulating Nesta into sexual acts or showing this physical aggression towards her. Which is kind of strange when you take into account the fact that according to them, they hate him because he’s a sexual assaulter but they also fantasize about him sexually assaulting their fav???

This is something I’ve noticed for a while now and for all they whine about how much they ship them because they’re “two powerful beings who are actually equal to one another” they have this habit of making Nesta a victim to him…Like I don’t even have to bring up Feyre to explain why that ship and it’s shippers are deeply fucked up.

#nesta archeron #rhysand #rhysta #nesta x rhysand #acotar #acomaf #acowar #what’s even crazier is that in canon he’s not like that at all. during his sex scenes with feyre he’s never manipulative or wanting control #over her in any way…thats why I can’t even take this ship seriously cause like this isn’t even Rhys. This is a random stereotypical mafia ya #copy that you’re calling Rhys. people who ship these two claim it’s done because they have a deeper understanding of the series and it’s #characters when in reality you understand dogshit about these people and you don’t like who they are in canon so you cope with that by #opening ao3
