i still have massive book hangover due to one rebecca ross
first it was for divine rivals, and i soothed that wound with a river enchanted. which filled all the holes in my heart that divine rivals left.
and now the only thing i can read is emotionally riveting dramione fanfic.
that's how dire the situation is rn.

https://www.tumblr.com/freyjas-musings/742670976839483392/i-just-cant-deal-with-elriels-anymore-they-want
I agree with these posts! I’ve seen so much fan art of Azriel’s shadows interacting with Elain even thought they skitter away from her and e/riel’s are saying that she will make his shadows go away, but in the beginning of his bonus chapter he talks about how his shadows will always be there with him.
They bring up how his shadows disappear around Mor, and it’s good since he had ( some e/riel’s believe he’s over her🤡) feelings for her, but that happened in ACOMAF when Mor & Azriel were originally supposed to be endgame. They were close with each other and had a deep friendship. His shadows vanishing, at that time since Mor who was his love interest, was probably a good thing and could be looked at differently, however in ACOWAR this obviously changed. Mor has to walk on eggshells with Azriel now. Proof of this is her pov in ACOFAS.
So Azriel’s shadows disappearing around Elain and e/riel’s thinking it’s a good thing because they do that with Mor, who is cautious around him, isn’t actually a good thing in my opinion. But they’ll argue left and right that this is good and that Elain makes his shadows calm, but there’s no canon text that she does make his shadows calm.
However, Azriel’s shadows had calmed, seemed content to watch him interact with Gwyn, which is actually stated by Azriel in his chapter, (and actually appeared to want to stay). They interacted with Gwyn in a positive way. I believe Azriel’s shadows are sentient and an extension of his soul. I think his shadows can sense the mating bond. Not saying that it’s snapped, because I most definitely don’t think it has, but I think it’s in the beginning stages. His shadows sense something is there. Which I think is interesting especially since a few days after Solstice we have that whole scene of Gwyn cutting the ribbon (👀), Azriel’s shadows also dancing again when she asked about a prize, Nesta calling Az the new ribbon, and his interactions with Gwyn pick up. When Gwyn was kidnapped for the Blood Rite (along with Emerie & Nesta) Azriel did react contrary to with e/riel’s say. His shadows AND siphons deepened. There was nothing him or Cassian could do though. Hell, even Rhys couldn’t do anything if they asked him. But both of them trusted in the girls to complete it. They showed their faith and support in them.
I think e/riel’s forget that the bonus chapter took place in the middle of the book, and Az’s interactions with Gwyn pick up after Solstice. Azriel and Elain have not interacted with each other (as far as we’ve seen on page unless it’s happening off page) since Solstice. I don’t think Azriel and Elain are having that secret-forbidden romance (there’s honestly nothing forbidden about it), because SJM writes her romances (and develops) them on paper where the readers can actually read it. Having a romance off page (that isn’t developed) isn’t her writing style. Azriel does say in HOFAS he doesn’t have a mate, but Gwynriel’s are fine with that, because we get to actually see their relationship develop. We get to see them become friends, we get to see them fall in love with each other, we get to see the mating bond snap.
I don’t think Azriel’s shadows interacting with Gwyn like that is her being evil as e/riel’s love to claim. Didn’t his shadows warn him about Koschei and the Cauldron? Surely they would do the same if Gwyn was evil. He felt a spark in his chest, which is how a mating bond is described and if you look at other mated couples, the bond is described to be a song between the souls. The wording with Gwynriel is so similar to other mates, especially Bryce and Hunt.
i agree! it's common knowledge at this point that e/riels steal from the other ships but then try to act as if they thought of it first when, no honey, 1. there's timestamp proof and 2. no e/riel has ever been that creative or paid enough attention to canon to develop widely fanon accepted things
even if moriel wasn't meant to be a thing (and tbh i've always been iffy on it. even back in the acomaf days i didn't really see it on both ends, and i swear a fan at a signing said sjm was surprised people shipped them but meh that's a topic for another day. maybe lol), sjm made certain to show us the difference in his shadows around these two women and tell us how deeply az values them. how they're his closest friends, how they're an intrinsic part of him, how they're not going anywhere. if once, them vanishing was a good thing, it's clear that's no longer the case. hence why they want the shadows to love elain but i'm sorry, that's just not happening lmfao
in my opinion, love is kind and sure and calm so the fact that az's shadows calm around gwyn is a huge green flag. like az is stressed af all the time! he needs to be able to come home and be at ease, to relax and just be az. without all the fancy and terrifying titles. we got this in his bonus chapter and they're trying to say it doesn't mean anything? really?? bffr
the "you're the new ribbon, az" is such an endgame indicator in my opinion. like nesta is telling us that gwyn has her sights set on az and we know how determined gwyn is. it's over for the bread and roses ship, if it wasn't already lol. the thing is, gwyn is a sexual assault survivor, az would never dream of coming on too strong with her so if anything happens between them, the ball is in her court. and then we have az who is canonically attracted to unavailable women, whether that's a coincidence, or some subconscious thing that ties into his low self worth... i don't know but to me, it fits perfectly together. gwyn will be the one making moves on him, or at least be the one to take that first, big step, and i think that will be huge for az who constantly feels he's not worthy or good enough
regarding the blood rite and the "forbidden" romance, there's nothing of substance there. just e/riels lacking critical thinking skills as always. if rhys couldn't do anything to get the girls out, what the fuck was az supposed to do? and no one is stopping e/riel from seeing each other except az himself so... you know. clearly he doesn't care about seeing her that much
why e/riels love the idea of every major moment of their ship developing off page, i'll never know. if i were an e/riel, i'd be so pissed. the fun of romance novels is seeing the characters come together and fall in love. and sjm knows that too, clearly, she's a romance author for christ's sake lol. she's not going to have these characters fall in love, move in together and get pregnant off page. no way in hell. that's also why they can't understand that gwynriels are perfectly content with that "he wouldn't consider her a friend but..." or whatever line because, like you said, that means we'll get to see them become friends. then lovers. then mates. why wouldn't you want that?
az's shadows know everything, that's why he's such a valuable spy. they tell him things he couldn't otherwise know. that's literally explained in the books. i believe they're sentient too, they tell him to sleep when he needs to so they obviously care for him, if gwyn were a danger to az, they would absolutely warn him. also the gwyn is secretly evil theory is shit because she's in part based off of sjm's irl friends and her villains are pretty two dimensional. so yeah, that's never happening lmao. even if (big if) gwynriel doesn't happen, gwyn is safe, so they just look stupid as hell talking about "evil gingers" or whatever the fuck they say these days.
i think that after so many books, true sjm fans know when she's working her mate bond magic. no matter how much others cry about it, sjm is a fated mates author. don't like it? go find someone else's books to read. it's as simple as that

Im afraid I just opened my eyes. I used to ship elriel so much it was crazy. Now, I read the bonus chapter again AND I CANNOT DENY WHAT I SAW BETWEEN GWYN AND AZ. it might've not been a lot but it showed so much in my eyes. I see the potential with them. With their story, I want it to be slowburn and then they both would realize their feelings for eachother because they both dont see it now but will soon. Also, im slowly moving away from elriel and seeing lucien and elain together too. I CANT BELIEVE I WAS THAT BLIND.
I'll admit... I can see why people ship Elriel, but I'm glad you are able to see now what us Gwynriels see after reading the bonus chapter again.
I know a lot of people looked at Gwyn and Azriels interactions again through a new light with the bonus chapter information and knowing it happens between Ch. 58/59 in ACOSF. It really opens your eyes... like what happened to you.
And even though their interactions aren't a lot right now because Gwyn was just introduced to us, the potential really is there for them and honestly a slow burn romance is perfect for them given both of their pasts. I love the idea of them both slowly realizing their growing feelings for each other. 🥰
As for Elain and Lucien....I have a lot of posts you might be interested in for them that could sway you even more to their side 👀
And please don't be afraid to reach out though message if you want to talk 😊

Ok scrolling through acotar tiktok KILLS ME. Its not the og tiktok with cool edits of ships that you prefer its just pure toxic hate.
Like me, you might have noticed there are few and few Gwynriel/elucien content then Elriel content. I don´t believe it is because they dont ship these ships anymore i think its because they are tired.
When i was neutral (about a year ago) on the ships wars, i would CONSTANTLY see Elriels being so confident about their ship and how acosf pointed to an elriel endgame. I had not read acosf by then and when i did+ the bc i didn´t hate elriel i just started to love Gwynriel.
Sometimes sarah likes to put positive factors on a ship, like something beautiful without there having to be a whole theory. Because sarah does not expect her readers to be theorists. She wants them to laugh,cry,giggle,scream. etc. So when she was writing the BC which according to elriels are not important she probably wanted us to look at Gwyn and Azriel and consider her obvious wording and differences between elriel and gwynriel. According to elriels the BC isnt important and does nothing to contribute into plots,but also it introduces Gwyns lightsinger powers? Whatever that is not even my point right now. My point is, at first glance at the BC everybody should be more positive towards Gwynriel. SJM put out a free bonus chapter. Why should something heavy like a characters powers be in there? Its supposed to be a light hearted thing. Im just tired of Elriels saying we are delusional or our ship is a crackship.
I never hated Elriel before. All the anti elriel stuff i have mentioned is everything i was already aware of before ´´hating´´ elain and az together. I was still neutral even with all those negavtives.
Its the fandom that made me turn around and choose Gwynriel. I noticed Gwynriel and Elucien content was much more surrounding pro content for their ship and cute headcanons,cannons,edits,fanarts etc. It rarely EVER mentioned anti Elriel information. Except the elriel content then and now, all revolves around Gwynriel and Elucien. Instead of promoting their ship, they have to tear down our ships and say we are crazy.
It was like: Elriel vs Gwynriel and it said that gwynriel was fanon and elriel was canon. Thats´ just false but i understand i cant change that which i dont mind but why scream about it to my face? I saw people bullying Gwyn and saying she was faking her trauma,lured in hyberns men or was evil for the sake to uplift elriel/elain. I saw people bully emerie too calling her a crippled fake illyrian and how it was stupid for emerie to win the blood rite against her cousin. Or how somehow emerie was a b*tch and does not deserve to be a valkyrie+ nesta and gwyn. I saw people make edits to uplift Elain and hate Gwyn. I witnessed people dismissing Luciens trauma and comparing him to his father. I saw people say he faked the bond to protect tamlin or what not. I saw people make up theories for Clotho saying she was odd because she said she was going to give Gwyn the necklace but probably didnt....
That was my last straw. So yes naturally i did in fact shift to the Gwynriel/elucien side. It was easier. Instead of the bullies i saw cute videos of ´´Azriel and Gwyn singing´´ or ´´Elain and lucien picking flowers´´ it was all just so lighthearted and beautiful.
Although i think the fandom for G/A and E/L decreased because they are tired. Because i was tired too. I did not even want to enter acotar tiktok because i knew we would all be bashed for it. Dont get me wrong i find myself sometimes leaving comments on Elriel videos. Not the ones with a cute edit or fanart the ones the share false information or something i disagree with. I only hope for a civil talk and next thing i know, there is a whole gang of elriels trying to push their narrative on me without listening.
Honestly the ship wars have always existed but before Elucien was the calmer side. Although sadly they got roped into the mess of the G/A vs, A/E wars. WIthout a doubt on every single Elucien video, elriels never miss a step. It would be a cute video like a fanart of them and they will start being like ´´ElAinS So UNComFOrtabLE aROUnd hiM´ like you guys ask us why we ship elucien when mentioning this but its like you dont even want an answer you just want to disagree. We tell you and you flat out ignore it.
As much as i love Gwynriel/Elucien i cant help but miss the days were reading ACOTAR was for all the characters. When it was just to see my favorites like Nesta. When i just desperately wanted to get to the iconic epic scenes.
I know if e/riel was confirmed, Elriels would firstly shove it in Eluciens and gwynriels faces and then maybe celebrate the characters.
I know Gwynriels/eluciens would too and i honestly want to see none of that. Yes i do believe we are getting Gwynriel/Elucien but i would not want to make people feel bad for their ship. They by all means can still love elriel. So many people like feylin,nesris,Aelin x chaol,aelin x dorain, and obviously aelin x sam (my endgame if rowan never existed) dramoine,klaroline,stelena,stiles x malia, Jelly,Bellarke,clexa,Rory x those 4 other guys etc etc.
Main point, Can we all just do better? Yes i am talking about elriels for my sake and lots of others peoples sakes but to everyone PLEASE.
I know that wont work though even if i say it because im only one human hahah
What im going to say is we should tag all our posts to our preferred ship and probably always put anti to the ship we dont like. That way everything is divided and less toxic. Also i will be tagging nothing to do with ship wars because i want everyone to see haha but please be nice!
This is just my experience btw im sure Elriels have has their fair treatment of toxic Gwynriels/Eluciens

Thanksvember 2021
Tumblr media
Thanksvember masterpost! This year I’m going to try to do (mostly) fics I didn’t include last year. Huge shoutout to all these fics and writers!! I appreciate each and every one of these so much!
November 1 - Going for Gold by @unhealthyfanobsession . I love @unhealthyfanobsession ‘s writing style and the way the individual character arcs come together. This Olympic AU fic had great pacing and writing. I was always on edge waiting for the next chapter!!
November 2 - I Don’t Want to Wait by @charincharge . This is 90% of the reason why I get through mondays. This Rowaelin AU is so freaking adorable and honestly the high school drama stuff hits different when you’re in pandemic high school or when you start college (it’s weirdly nostalgic but also like, whew, thank god I’m done with college applications). Anyway, this fic is the perfect amount of sweetness and suspense. I cant wait to see where it goes!
November 3 - Mr. & Mrs. Archeron by @moodymelanist . I mean, an AU where they’re both assassins but don’t know until they cross paths on opposite sides of a case?? *chefs kiss* It definitely keeps you on your toes! And the nessian is, of course, exquisite. 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for some Nessian with action.
November 4 - Wingplay by @simpingfornestaarcheron . This fic is sexy and hot as FUCK. If you’re looking for a little smutty spice, go check it out! 🔥
November 5 - Dark Roast, No Sugar by @whimsicallyreading . This rowaelin fic is coffee shop AU + a TON of angsty drama. I’m obsessed!!! I love the writing, and the pacing is just perfect — so much anticipation! Definitely recommend if you want an exciting Rowaelin fic
November 6 - In which she makes a friend by @bookstantrash . I love how Nesta opens up and getting closer to Kaelin (who, by the way, is one of my all time fav OCs), and I love Cassian and Kaelin’s interactions, too. The Nessian is obviously amazing! I love this fic and I seriously can’t recommend it enough 😍😍😍
November 7 - Let Me Be Your Home by @perseusannabeth . Regency Nessian? Uh, yes please!! Every detail about Nesta’s past hurts like a thousand paper cuts but it just makes her healing better and all the acts of kindness Cassian gives her that she’s not used to hurts in the best way. Seriously go read this right now!
November 8 - Scandalous by @arinbelle . I adore her writing (there’ll def be more of her fics on this list). This fic tho… *chefs kiss* I love a Nessian fic with sprinkles of angst and this one is like, my comfort angsty Nessian pregnancy fic. I love every single thing about it and have reread it a LOT. And I love it more each time.
November 9 - Famously in Love by @batboyazriel . First off, I love the premise for this fic! I mean, famous YouTubers that the internet ship? What’s not to love! Also, the way the narration follows all the different couples keeps the story perfectly paced. An awesome Nessian & Feysand & Elriel modern AU!
November 10 - Somewhere by @thewayshedreamed . I love her writing & narrative style so much! This fic is a rollercoaster of growing out of a toxic relationship and learning to have a more healthy love and made me feel so deeply. I really enjoyed every bit of Nessian’s progression, even when I wanted to cry.
November 11 - Come and get me by @c-e-d-dreamer . @c-e-d-dreamer ‘s writing is my newest obsession! This Nessian fic in particular gave me all the feels. 10/10 recommend!!
November 12 - Lay Down Your Burdens by @highfaelucien . Oh my gosh, @highfaelucien fics hit hard every time but this one has me drowning in bittersweet angty feels. Just all the pain and trauma and love in this one is impeccable. It’s utterly perfect and I’m so in love 😍
November 13 - Prepare for trouble, make it double by raging_fire (ao3). I’m breaking my “only fics by tumblr users” rule with this one but it deserves it. I obviously have a soft spot for Nessian pregnancy/parenting fics, but I don’t usually like OC-centric fics. This fic, which focuses on Nessian’s kids, proved me so wrong. I was so obsessed with this, the updates made my day and I even made a GC just to fangirl over it and make theories. You have to go check it out for your own sake!!!
November 14 - The Asshole from the manor on the hill by @moe8 . @moe8 has many great fics but I had to pick this amazing one in which Nesta confronts our least favorite asshole, Tomas ✨ The part 2 is great too!!
November 15 - An Exception by @confusedfandomslut . This fic 🥵🔥 I mean, modern AU with rival Nessian AND stripper Nesta? 👀 the ending is perfect too. Definitely recommend!
November 16 - For You by @rhysand-vs-fenrys . I think about this fic ALL THE TIME. I’ve reread it ALOT. Not only is it Lysaedion (!!!) smut, it’s also hilarious and adorable and just overall perfect. Some passages I think about:
“What are we?” “Pre-married.” Aedion answered instantly. When Lysandra did not respond he began adding to the list, “In love. Lovers. You are courting me. I am courting you. Engaged… Best friends? Confidants? You’re a beautiful, powerful woman and I’m… your toy?” He was less and less sure as he went on, but his answers were snarky all the same. “Two adults? Two non-humans? Roommates? Future permanent roommates? Too beautiful for our own good? Did… did I say ‘partners’ already?”
And:
“Just- if I’m being honest the wax was kind of… when we were playing with it I was fine, but I was picking drops off some very delicate parts for a week.”
November 17 - Holiday of Healing by @starbornvalkyrie & @aurips . Not only is this an adorable 6 part Nessian fic (and it’s the perfect time for a reread, now that the Holidays are coming up again!), I also love the Rowan-Nesta and Cassian-Aelin friendships 😍 This fic is seriously amazing. Go give it a read!!
November 18 - The Seven of Us by @julemmaes . A fluffy collection of oneshots about Nesta & Cassian and their 5 kids!! Literally every single one of these oneshots is so perfect and cute ♥️♥️♥️
November 19 - Nesta’s Smile is like the Sun by @vidalinav . I know from personal experience how difficult it can be to love someone who struggles with their mental health. It isn’t always easy to be supportive — often it feels like you’re useless and nothing you do rly helps them. But anyways this Nessian fic was everything I needed. I love your writing and this one hit hard, since I relate to both Cassian & Nesta.
November 20 - Made by @arinbelle . This Nessian Mafia AU fic… *chefs kiss* the PACING! The drama! The writing! The romance! The crime! Everything is absolute perfection ✨
November 21 - Boughs of Holly by @ncssian . I’m still so soft over the fact that you wrote this fic for me 🥺 I adore @ncssian ‘s writing, and her characterization of the ACOTAR-verse characters is always incredible — seriously, one of my absolute favorite fic writers and that’s saying smth bc I don’t have a life and constantly binge read fanfic. Anyway this one is super cute and perfect now that the holidays are rolling around again!
November 22 - Misplace Mail by @live-the-fangirl-life . @live-the-fangirl-life is a pro at writing fluffy cute oneshots & mini series! This series is not only hilarious, it’s also 🔥🔥🔥 Def go check out more of @live-the-fangirl-life ‘s writing if you love fluff!
November 23 - I’m here by @talkfantasytome . This Lysaedion fic series breaks my heart in the best way. It’s adorable but bittersweet and just absolute perfection. ♥️
November 24 - Supernova by @sirendeepity . I’ve only read the first chapter so far (which was phenomenal btw) but I KNOW this fic is gonna hurt like hell and I’m gonna thank it anyway. I know I’m going to be addicted to it. I love the premise, and the Nessian and the writing 😍✨
November 25 - Childhood memories by @happy-smiling-things . First off, I ADORE @happy-smiling-things writing!!! There are so many amazing Nessian fics so it was so hard to pick one. This one delves into Nesta’s past, her childhood trauma, and her growth, and I love it!!!
November 26 - Senseless by @mariamuses . This fic is such a memorable classic! It’s a little angsty — you know, because who doesn’t love a little hurt/comfort? Especially when it’s Nesta being vulnerable and Cassian trying to help her through it all? Go read it if you haven’t already!
November 27 - Your Love by @writtenonreceipts . I love all of @writtenonreceipts ‘ fics — I definitely recommend checking them all out! This one is written in a style I find really creative and interesting, and I absolutely love ♥️
November 28 - Lost by @arinbelle . This is a hauntingly beautiful fic. I cant even describe it. Just go read it when you have the emotional stability (or lack thereof) to appreciate the painful beauty.
November 29 - A favor by @ncssian . This is worthy of breaking my “no repeats from last year” rule. I cannot explain just how much I love this fic. Every single part of it is incredible. The characterization of Nesta, Cassian, and the rest of the characters within a modern context is so interesting to watch and just *chefs kiss*. Trust me, if you love nessian, you’ll love this. Do yourself a favor and go read it ;)
November 30 - A Lion’s Pride by @pitterpatterpot . This comes as a surprise to absolutely no one bc I’m obsessed with this fic and do free advertising for it 24/7. I reread it so many times that I almost memorized the whole thing so I had to take a break so that I could forget a bit and fully experience it again. The exploration of Aedion’s character is just so perfect, I love it so much. Did I recommend this fic last year? Yes ofc. Will I do it again next year? Probably. So go read it so that you can come scream about it with me ♥️

I quite honestly cant grasp how people are confident elriel is just a set up for azriels character development and gwyn is endgame when
- elain is almost definitely having the next book based off the two bonus chapters. so is azriel. and elriel being set up like this regardless if they're endgame or not solidifies their books are together considering Rhysand set up a whole plot on his own with them. SJM said before each book is about one couple getting together, she couldve not potentially meant to mean only one per book but as far as that goes, there's no room left for Gwyn/lucien in elriels story to have their own journeys and endgames. she's unlikely with what we know to be writing a book about BOTH couples getting together. not to mention it's just extremely unlikely elain is going to be used just as a plot point for azriel. We know she has her own story coming and I don't know why she'd be a big part of azriels book but not have a POV.
- rhysand set up a forbidden love trope and their kiss was interrupted/azriel had to force himself to say it was a mistake/elriel are in a bad spot right now, why would sjm put all that together if she wasn't setting up a slow burn journey. if she was setting up gwyn and elain not being what's best for azriel she wouldn't have made their relationship so complicated
- why would gwyn and azriel end up together when he regifted his present to elain to gwyn just because he was told to stay away from elain lmao that never in any storytelling suggests great things for the relationship
- why would sjm put so much long term thought into elriel to just let it go in 2 seconds over a character we JUST met and is unlikely to ever be a main character. they've been set up since acomaf and acowar and she went through all the effort with the longing breadcrumbs in acofas/acosf
- gwyn as a character doesn't really add up to main character material, she already went through her journey in nestas book and while she still has more to go through (as nesta does and everyone does) it would just be odd to give her a whole book when she's not an integral part of these books
- sjm has been setting up the mate bond being rejected for elucien for awhile, just as she's been setting up elriel for awhile. elriel came true (which btw, the people who are so confident elriel is dust were the same ones who were so confident elriel were like siblings so lmao why are we trusting their bad takes?) so the mate bond rejection is likely to also come true. The ONLY way gwynriel would be endgame is if she did something so corny and made them mates, so you really think almost every main character in these books are conveniently going to end up happy with their mate when 1. mates were supposed to be rare and 2. the emphasis the cauldron can get it wrong, it would be so dry and overdone to go through TWO more mate bond journeys would be so ridiculous. What we haven't seen now is the impact and consequence of a mate bond being rejected
- gwynriel doesn't have any obstacles against them and would be so easy to get together. You can maybe say azriels trauma/obsession with elain are their obstacles but that is soooo weak for a whole 700 paged book. SJM said her couples need something in their way (those aren't her exact words I can't remember what she said exactly but something like that). Elriel is the relationship that has the forbidden love component and if they got together a whole war could be started. even elucien doesn't have much against them except elains unwillingness to give it a try. I don't know how you would think a gwynriel book would at all be interesting for anyone to read about
- basing your elriel takes off this one part is so ridiculous, claiming azriel is only obsessed and sexually attracted to elain is an already debunked point when we have 3.5 other books to go off of with him risking his life to save her, giving her truth-teller, obviously always caring about her (solstice dinner, etc) yall are just intentionally obtuse with this one
