One of the reasons I will always defend Elain is because I too went through a period of catatonic grief after unimaginable loss after loss after loss (in a short period of time) There was no Rhysand to rescue me from an abusive relationship, no Cassian to teach me how to wield a sword and feel strong. There was only myself with my thoughts, stuck in my mind as I replayed events over and over and could barely get out of bed to survive past all of the pain that was completely out of my control. Maybe if one hasn't experienced it, it's harder to understand how easy it is to disassociate in the face of too much incomprehensible sadness, no matter what is going on around you. I can see how that would be perceived as weak, from that perspective (I suppose), although I do not agree.

#idk man ive just always felt like i could see elain so clearly #both her and azriel i was immediately like “yes i get you i understand it i can see why you are the way you are” #so i cant help but be a bit....surprised...at all the hate she gets #because its like - is this just an experience nobody else understands? really? #why do people hate quiet internal processing SO MUCH? #pro elain archeron #elain archeron #i have lived and experienced the emotional experiences of basically all m fav characters and thats prob why i love them lol
