#i am 🤞 you are a Bastard which is my favorite character type

I loved the newest update of Onyx Sword of Sorrow so much!! You write so beautifully, I feel it in my soul. I love how you describe their emotions and I love their banter. Your writing is some of the best I’ve ever read. Take however long you need to write, and I hope you’re healing well after your surgery!💙

I loved Azriel in House of Flame and Shadow. Nesta, too. I love their friendship. HOFAS further confirmed (at least to me) that Azriel has mommy issues, which is understandable, because his mother was treated awfully. I believe that the next ACOTAR book will probably be Azriel’s, and the main plot will be centered around Illyria & Ramiel. I’m not sure how you feel about ships in the fandom, and I don’t want to turn your blog into something toxic since shippers can be aggressive, and I don’t want to disrespect your safe place, but I did want to share my thought on the bonus chapter with Bryce, Nesta, and Azriel. The ending of that bonus chapter immediately reminded me of the ending of Azriel’s bonus chapter in ACOSF. When Bryce’s phone died (there was no music playing), Azriel was humming and his shadows danced. The shadows have danced to two people so far: Gwyn and Azriel. I honestly think Az and Gwyn are mates. I also think his shadows are an extension of his soul/sentient. Ships aside, though, I like how Azriel seems interested in music and I hope we get more of him singing, and why he seems to have a connection with it.

What were your thoughts on House of Flame and Shadow? And have you read the Throne of Glass series?

Thank you so much for your words 🥹 I’m truly glad that my writing had managed to bring some emotions to light. And thank you! I’m recovering pretty well so far. 🤍

As for HOFAS, it was a pleasant reading experience to me. I tried not to fall into the rabbit hole of theories and first read it with my mind blank, and I was not disappointed at all. Nesta is, by far, my favorite SJM character, while Azriel is one of my favorites from ACOTAR, so reading them as a duo was the highest point of the book to me.

I’m really rooting for his book to come next! I felt that he had some trouble with his mother from a few passages of him from previous books, and I’m sure it’s related to how her father had treated her badly and how she had been seen as somewhat of an inferior female for having a bastard. I presume that Azriel’s father is a figure of military importance (I might be wrong!) and his reputation was maimed after Azriel’s birth. That’d resonate a lot with how lowly he views himself and how he believes that he’s inferior to pretty much everyone else. I need to tap into that man’s tortured mind so much! 😭

One thing I’m hoping for SJM to write in his book is his journey to find Bryaxis. Knowing SJM, he’d probably be accompanied 🫢 And now! Tapping onto ships, I’m hoping that he’d be tracking down Bryaxis with Gwyn. I, too, am a huge truther of their future, especially because of their singing. I need to see him sing. Like, straight up belt something. I’ve always pictured him imprisoned and alone, humming to himself. I have this very vivid image of little Azriel learning that his singing made the shadows move and how he kept singing to draw them closer, because he so desperately needed the company.

This answer is turning out to be huge, but at last, yes! I’ve read Throne of Glass. I’m a huge fan of Manon and the Thirteen and of Rowan, because I apparently have a type. 🤞
