Hot take: I honor that from a critical reading point of view— if we step back from the characters motives and over all plot— how giving a ultra powerful weapon to an alien that can come back and kill your world is dangerous.
and as a Nesta stan who has been around the fandom long enough to know better— that this x way of critical thinking only applies to Nesta from certain fans. The logic just falls flat and would make more sense if you applied the logic as a standard, since justifying what seems unjustifiable is what you’re doing, I mean.
because we’ve BEEN saying if you step back and view the story like that really all the IC’s actions make no sense hence why Rhys is a sucky HL for how he handles the HC and Illyrians and basically anything outside of Velaris. But when we point this out it’s us being bitter and suddenly we should just let it go because it’s just fantasy.
The fact some fans will say with their whole chest that Rhysands level of anger levied at Nesta is justified because ‘we as readers know ultimately things will turn out fine but just think about how bad things could’ve gone for Prythian’… so then… should we also apply this level of critical thinking at any point in acotar and still not see that you just can’t have that logic without the ‘fun’ aspect getting lost? Starting with Rhys drugging Feyre so she ‘forgets’? I love critical thinking but please it doesn’t make sense when it is only applied to suit a certain narrative. And then to still criticize others for it when it’s applied to character that are their favorites.
