Hi!!! First of all, sorry for my English, I know it's not perfect but I hope I can write in an understandable way! I was browsing and came across your blog! I have read almost all of your posts and asks about acotar!

I'm not a huge fan of the saga (I have a huge struggle finding female characters I like or at least wouldn't want to see dead lol I guess it's the fact that 99% of the time there's always romance involved and I hate romance! In fact, I was very amazed when despite not being crazy about her character, I almost never found Freya annoying, even her relationship with Rhys didn't bother me that much, and especially when reading the book I fell in love with Mor! A very strange thing, I read a lot and the female characters I don't dislike I can count on the fingers of one hand), I read it because I was looking for books with a strong bromance and a friend of mine (madly in love with Freya and Rhys) suggested Acotar to me because of Rhys, Az and Cassian and I must say she was right, I liked the three of them very much, especially Rhys and Cassian, my favorites (with Mor). Although, I admit I would have liked to see a little more about their relationship; I appreciated the fact that the nightmares Rhys had were about the fact that Cassian or Az might suffer the same fate he had suffered in his fifty years of captivity, the fact that when Cassian was wounded in acomaf he was aware of the urgency of healing his wings because he would rather die than live without them, or again when in acowar he told him that there was no debt to repay when Nesta had proposed to be bait and Cassian agreed. I was wondering, since from what I have read you understand Cassian's character very well, if you have a favorite moment of yours between the two and if there is anything you would like to see between the two in the next books.

P.S Since I'm not a fan of Nesta (understatement) I didn't read acosf, because loving Cassian's character I was afraid that it would make me dislike him (and because I had/have a bad feeling that he will end up at the point where he has to choose between her and his family and the very idea makes me furious and sick. But feel free to do spoilers, I haven't read the book but I obviously know what happens)

And then one more thing. I don't know if I can ask you this (I think I understand that this kind of question you prefer to be asked on the other blog, however while I'm at it...) but if you know of any, would you like to suggest some other books/saga where there is a connection like the one between the bat boys? It's what I prefer to read, but I have a hard time finding books with a strong bromance component to read.

A hug🤗

Hello! I love Cassian so much, I love this whole ask :D

I have read almost all of your posts and asks about acotar

First, I commend you on this because oh my god, that's a lot of content to sift through haha

I love that you love Mor! I love her too, even if sjm has basically written her as an incomplete character thus far. We got so much info about her in acomaf-fas, we even got her POV, and now nothing but the tension between her and Nesta in acosf? SJM has dangled all this stuff in front of us about Mor and then just left it as big question marks. She has said she is excited to write Mor's story, so I am just hoping that comes before I hit retirement age.

I am finishing up my acomaf reread today and I just love the IC so much in that era, I totally understand why you love the friendship between Rhys, Cassian, and Azriel. Cassian and Mor is my favorite brotp (still) but I love the idea of those three guys supporting each other through all these years and knowing each other so well. There are some things in acosf that make me question their friendship so maybe you shouldn't read it, idk. I don't think that, if you don't like Nesta, then acosf would make you dislike Cassian. From what I've seen, people who really love Nesta ended up disliking Cassian in acosf. I prefer Cassian to Nesta, without question, and acosf didn't make me like him any less.

I had/have a bad feeling that he will end up at the point where he has to choose between her and his family

This definitely happens and I think that readers don't realize that he is so torn between his brothers and his mate? Nesta and Rhys do not get along and so that puts Cassian in an awkward position not infrequently. There are no good choices for him when Nesta and Rhys butt heads. Imagine if your partner and your family were clashing, it's awkward enough but then you're at the beginning of your relationship, your partner is dealing with some mental health shit, your family is dealing with world ending shit. It's a lot.

For your question about what I hope, I hope that Cassian and Nesta are able to find a balance in their relationship. That would mean her respecting his relationship with Rhys and Az despite her feelings towards Rhys, and him choosing her over them on occasion and standing up for her. I don't see how their relationship (Cassian and Nesta) could honestly last unless they find a way to balance the fact that Cassian's best friend/brother and his mate hate one another. Something's got to give. My favorite scene between them thus far is still the end of acowar when he thinks he is going to die and says he wishes they'd had more time.

For books with a strong bromance, that's an interesting question! I'm not sure if these count, but the first one that comes to mind is The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. It's not bromance per se, but it does focus on friendship a lot! Then The Gilded Wolves revolves around a friend group. There is some romance in that one. If you are into graphic novels, Rat Queens has great female friendship, but stop after the third volume. There are also great friendships in the Mistborn trilogy! I feel like I should start a "friendship" shelf on my Goodreads so I can keep track of them, that was a hard question. If anyone else has recommendations, feel free to leave them!

cassian: *gives nesta a whole ass monologue practically babbling about all feyre accomplished for prythian + aggressively insulting nesta in the hopes of humbling her and getting her to play nice with everyone*

nesta:

Nesta didn’t bat an eyelash as she studied the handsome features, the muscled torso. Then turned to me. Dismissing him entirely.

me and cassian both:

Cassian was sizing up Nesta, a gleam in his eyes that I could only interpret as a warrior finding himself faced with a new, interesting opponent.

….

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️EVERYBODY BE SEATED EVERY BE FUCKING CALM I’M NOT EVEN BREATHING I’M NOT BLINKING I’M NOT MOVING OH MY FUCKING GOD HE’S LOOKING AT HER HE’S FUCKING LOOKING AT HER I’M NOT GONNA FUCKING SURVIVE THIS I’M LITERALLY ONGOSHAOHDLAHSKABSKABDKQHEOAHEOCUOAHWKBEKWBRWKJDKSBEKWBEJAJDKSJSKAKSLQO HOLY FUCK I’M LITERALLY HYPERVENTILATING THIS IS THE SINGLE BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😭😭😭😭😭😭🤯🤯🤯🤯😓😨😨😨😱😱😱😨😱😱😱😱❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💞💞💞🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😭😭😭😱😱😱😱😱🥰💞😨😭😱💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

….

Then, Mother above, Nesta shifted her attention to Cassian, noticing that gleam—what it meant. She snarled softly, “What are you looking at?”

….

NESSIAN IS ✨ART✨ pt. 1

Nesta didn’t bat an eyelash as she studied the handsome features, the muscled torso. Then turned to me. Dismissing him entirely.

Cassian’s face went almost feral. A wolf who had been circling a doe ... only to find a mountain cat wearing its hide instead.

…

that was so hot. that was so hot i collapsed. currently dehydrated as shit rn bc of these two fuckers.

…

I could almost taste her pride roiling in her veins, barking to not back down.

Cassian, damn him, gave her a taunting grin.

But Nesta merely hissed, “Fine.” And went back to eating.

…

baby cass is such a little shit djdkskdks ugh i love them i am so mentally unstable rn they are literally fucking with my mind. their POWER, lord have mercyyy

…

Cassian watched every bite she took, every bob of her throat as she swallowed. … Cassian tore his relentless attention from Nesta long enough to nod his agreement.

…

HE’S SO REAL!!!!

SAME BESTIE WE SHARE THE SAME MIND SAME THOTS SAME THIRSTS. I WOULD ALSO GIVE MY EVERY WAKING MOMENT’S WORTH OF ATTENTION TO ONE MISS NESTA ARCHERON AND HER FINE ASS FACE

….

“If the queens do come here,” she added, casting a frozen glare at Cassian …

Nesta went on, utterly unimpressed by any of us. …

Nesta just rose to her feet, a slim pillar of steel, and said to no one in particular, “If we’re done eating, then this meal is over.”

…

*ritually chants* top me top me top me top me

…

BONUS FROM OUR RESIDENT ANNOYING LIL HIGH LORD AND BESTIE FEYREKINS

“It’s been a few centuries since someone got under Cassian’s skin that easily. Too bad they’re both inclined to kill the other.”

Part of me shuddered at the havoc the two would wreak if they decided to stop fighting. …

I’m watching Cassian and Nesta get into it again over their tea. …

…half paying attention to my eldest sister and the Illyrian warrior’s sparring.

…..

tbh i hope they never stop bc it’s hot and reading about angry bitchy nesta is sexyyyy sorry. ALSO feysand totally ships the fuck out of nessian as they should.

Cassian had flown off to join him (aka azzie baybee) the moment we returned. He’d given Nesta a mocking bow, and she’d given him a vulgar gesture I hadn’t realized she knew how to make.

…..

she….she flipped him off I’M SO OBSESSED HOLY FUCOEHAIDAOUSOSIAOSJAOISOAOA they’re perfect angels and i will protect them with everything i have

….

Cassian had merely laughed, his eyes snaking over Nesta’s ice-blue gown with a predatory intent that, given her hiss of rage, he knew would set her spitting. Then he was gone, leaving my sister on the broad doorstep, her brown-gold hair ruffled by the chill wind stirred by his mighty wings.

….

cassian is me i am cassian, nesta is yum and we have fallen in love.

:&)&:&;&/@:/9 SHE FUCKING HISSED i would genuinely cry, scream, and faint CASSIAN HANDLES THIS SO MUCH BETTER THAN I COULD

Cassian started to object again, but Rhys said quietly, “I will need you—not Amren—in the human realm. …”

………

I’d had one break from Cassian’s brutal training— just one morning, when he’d flown to the human realm to see if my sisters had heard from the queens and deliver another letter from Rhys to be sent to them.

I assumed seeing Nesta went about as poorly as could be imagined, because my lesson the following morning was longer and harder than it’d been in previous days. I’d asked what, exactly, Nesta had said to him to get under his skin so easily. But Cassian had only snarled and told me to mind my own business, and that my family was full of bossy, know-it-all females.

……

omg OMG WINGS AND EMBERS FUCKING FINALLY BITCHHH i’m SPRINTING LES GOOOOO

And Nesta just looked at the three of them, then at me, and said, “The cook left dinner on the table. We should eat before it goes cold.” She didn’t wait for my agreement before striding off—right to the head of the polished cherry table.

…..

Nesta was waiting at the head of the table, a queen ready to hold court. Elain trembled in the upholstered, carved wood chair to her left.

the way feyre is literally describing her as a queen. the way nestakins is just IGNORING these powerful intimidating fae warriors in her house like damn. okay mamas

“Cassian would laugh himself hoarse hearing that. And then make me go into the sparring ring with him.”

“Can he beat you?”

“Hand-to-hand combat? Yes. He’d have to earn it for a change, but he’d win.” No arrogance, no pride.

“Cassian is the best warrior I’ve encountered in any court, any land. He leads my armies because of it.”

I didn’t doubt his claim.

“My family’s estate,” I said.

“Mother’s tits, Rhys,” Cassian cut in, wings flaring wide enough to nearly knock over the ceramic vase on the side table next to him. “You think we can just take over her family’s house, demand that of them?”

CASSIAN SUBCONSCIOUSLY WANTING TO PROTECT NESTA AND KEEP HER OUT OF ALL THE DRAMA BEFORE THEY EVEN METTTTTT IM GONNA DIE RIGHT NOW RIGHT HERE LAWD

I wondered if his (Rhys’s) powers would work on Nesta when even Tamlin’s glamour had failed against her steel mind.

GUFUSJDOSODKS she’s so powerful even as a HUMAN that feyre is worried if rhys’s power will work on her like at this point i have no choice but to stan

Amren just continued cleaning her nails—with a tiny bone, I realized. “Touch me, Cassian, and I’ll remove your favorite part. Small as it might be.”

He let out a low chuckle.

….

ohmygod HE DIDN’T EVEN FULL OUT LAUGH…..that was a chuckle A CHUCKLE A FUCKING CHUCKLE…???

…it’s a monster isn’t it? a straight up kitty killer?

He was focusing hard enough on keeping silent, on keeping his wings tucked in tight so they didn’t rustle anything, that he barely took in the heavy, pale purple gown, simpler than others he’d seen Nesta in, tight enough in the bodice to show off her slim waist, the fitted sleeves displaying her slender arms.

———-

the way cassian chooses to phrase his words oh my fuck????? like analyzing and appreciating nesta’s outfits seems to be such a regular thing for him already even though this is only their second time seeing each other i’m so obsessed with him

I halted a good four feet away, giving my sisters breathing space in a room that had suddenly been deprived of all air. I said to the males, “My sisters, Nesta and Elain Archeron.” …

My sisters did not curtsy. Their hearts wildly pounded, even Nesta’s, and the tang of their terror coated my tongue—

“Cassian,” I said, inclining my head to the left. Then I shifted to the right, grateful those shadows were nowhere to be found as I said, “Azriel.” I half turned. “And Rhysand, High Lord of the Night Court.”

OKAY OKAY OKAY NOTICE HOW FEYRE INTRODUCED NESSIAN FIRST? THEIR POWER THEIR SUPERIORITY THEIR BIG DICK ENERGY!!!!! THEY SURPASS ALL OF US. NO ONE COMPARES NO ONE COMES CLOSE WHO DOES IT LIKE THEM???
