Delving into the use of bastard in the ACOTAR series. I have the data set saved if anybody else wants to see. As always, Tumblr destroys the quality too. If you repost, please credit/link me :-)

How many games had Cassian played as a child with Rhys and Azriel, where a long stick had been a stand-in for Gwydion? How many adventures had they imagined, sharing that mythical sword between them as they slew wyrms and rescued damsels? Never mind that Rhys’s particular damsel had slain a wyrm herself and rescued him instead.

GUESS WHO JUST GOT GWYDION

If the summer court send blood Ruby's then spring sends tansy's

[fox-in-flowers]

but... isn't that what happened, Feyre?

[fox-in-flowers]

This is legit my face when the Feysand, Rhysand & Feyre stans say something along the lines of this when it comes to Tamlin not being able to help Feyre UTM

Them: Tamlin could have helped Feyre, could have done something & not just sit there & watch her suffer

Me: erm…Tamlin sent Feyre BACK OVER THE FUCKING WALL BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WOULD’NT BE ABLE TO HELP HER, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE HIM DO??!!

Them: I don’t know do something to help her

Me: are you mentally slow? Challenged? Repressed? Which one is it? What part of HE WAS IN NO POSITION TO EVEN REACT TO FEYRE MUCH MORE GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO HER TO HELP HER DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!! He literally sent Lucien to aid her because he could not & as a result of that Tamlin had to whip his own best friend for trying to aid her, before that Lucien told Feyre that Tamlin couldn’t get anywhere near her because he was being watched like a hawk, did you also forget Rhysand REITERATING THE EXACT SAME THING LUCIEN SAID FIRST?!?!!! Did you forget what Amarantha did to Clare Beddor when she thought Clare was the one Tamlin loved? How did Clare end up? Oh yeah that’s right DEAD, DEAD AS ONE CAN FUCKING BE, more than that DID YOU FORGET THAT TAMLIN HAD NO ACCESS TO HIS MAGIC, why?…BECAUSE THE SHE-DEVIL TOOK THEM!! How do you expect someone who is practically being tied to the hip to a sadistic psychopathic tyrant, who has no access to his magic & to our knowledge minimal knowledge of his way around UTM to get himself out ALIVE & the love of his life out ALIVE?! Not to fucking mention RHYSAND STILL HAD ACCESS TO A PART OF HIS MAGIC & DID NOTHING TO GET HER OUT!!

Them: he still could have done something

Me: he wha-🤬🤬🤬😤😤😤🫠🫠🫠😃😃😃🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

going to start listing canon interactions men in acotar have had, and then just add "which could mean nothing" to the end à la matt damon and ben affleck.

rhysand was 'the one who taught tamlin how to fuck.' which could mean nothing. rhysand also fell in love with feyre because she reminded him of cassian. which could mean nothing.

cassian slept with mor because he was jealous of how much of azriel's attention she took up. which could mean nothing.

OMG LOOK AT THEM THEY'RE SO PRETTY

Once again randomly remembered this story about a couple who had a small parrot - pretty sure it was a budgie - who didn't talk but learned to communicate with people in its own way. Once it figured out that people always turn to check their phones when the notification sound comes on, it started making the text message notification sound to request human attention. The parrot also liked to follow people to the door whenever guests were leaving, and would use its wings to pantomime the motions of a person putting their coat on. A very clever, charming bird.

And every once in a while it just randomly hated some people. Not for any real reason, or even reason to suspect bad vibes, but by deciding "fuck this person in particular" for shits and giggles alone. And one time when the owners had invited a new friend to their home, the bird decided that it Did Not Like Her.

So in the middle of polite conversation, the bird - who was free to roam around the apartment at the time - hopped onto the living room coffee table, right in front of the unwanted guest. And in that moment, the owners put two and two together and understood that whatever mischief the bird had decided to do, it was now too late to stop it.

But instead of unleashing the absolute hell that even the tiniest displeased parrot could be capable of, the little budgie made its little "may I have your attention please" cell phone notification sound, and once the guest was focused on the bird, looked at her dead in the eye while doing the putting-my-coat-on wing motion.

The guest did not recognise the pantomime for what it was, but she was nonetheless delighted that the parrot would do a little wing-roll dance for her. And the host couple were at first too stunned and then too polite to tell her how impressive that gesture truly was. Their bird had shown both remarkable restraint and cleverness by using its entire vocabulary of human communication just to say

"I have an important announcement: I think you should leave."

Lesson in citing your sources, friends. Here's the claim:

And yet, this is actually what Azriel’s POV tells us.

Anyone getting new start and life, feel new and fresh vibes? Because I'm definitely not. It actively feels wrong to touch her.

I'm gonna hit that take with a solid:

That is not true per the text.

If you're going to pose something, at least make sure it's true first. Good lord.

even feyre understands how fucked it is that rhys only protects velaris and makes the hewn city fight and die for him when he needs them to 😭

remember when feyre was anti rhys like the rest of us? those were the good times.

He deserves an apology

Not an Elriel deleting a comment they made on Pinterest just because I debunked their statements and claims 💀🙏

People who say Nesta was OOC for giving Bryce the mask in HOFAS piss me OFF. Stop talking and go reread the High Lords meeting in ACOWAR

[fox-in-flowers]

Nesta said, “I want a disgustingly ornate mating ceremony.”

He laughed, pulling away. “Really?”

“Why not?”

“Because I’ll never hear the end of it from Azriel and Mor.” Or the Illyrians.

Nesta, run. Your husband cares more about the opinions of his 500 year throuple situationship than what you want for your wedding

Dirty Dancing Eluicen. Lucien teaching Elain dancing at a strange adult summer camp. Falling in love over dancing and summer vibes. Why is this now in my brain.

[fox-in-flowers]

it’s killing me that the other Archeron sisters are mated to High Lords (future High Lord in Elain’s case) and Nesta is stuck with that LOSER
