WE ARE ONE.

So being the crazy person that I am, and having re-read ACOMAF non-stop since its release…. I was looking through my notes and I’d noted a passage that I’d found interesting…. and I didn’t really see anyone discuss it much, so I thought I’d bring it up…? 

Inmates, once sentenced, cannot ever leave the Prison. And they cannot be freed.

“have you ever–”

“yes” 

I don’t know if SJ Maas will ever choose to explore this, but I am really, really curious to see who Rhys would’ve imprisoned inside here. 

Because it makes me recall a passage from ACOTAR:

Tamlin remained seated. With his back to me, I couldn’t see his face, but Tamlin’s voice was laced with the promise of violence as he said, “What do you want, Rhysand?” 

Rhysand smiled–heartbreaking in its beauty–and put a hand on his chest. “Rhysand? Come now, Tamlin. … Only my prisoners and my enemies call me that.”

WHO ARE HIS PRISONERS?

I JUST WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT RHYS

*collapses on the floor*

*wails*

Basically his entire attitude about Feyre is this:

Amren: Just get on with it, pea-brain, and stop wasting my time.

Mor: *rolls eyes* Why are we here, Cass?

Cassian: As you’re aware, there was a terrible crime committed last night.

Azriel: There was?

Cassian: Yes, indeed there was. The crime was heinous, inexcusable, and down right evil.

Rhys: And this atrocious crime was committed where, exactly?

Cassian: Here, in your house of course.

Rhys: Wait. You were in our house last night?

Feyre: Shh! Stop interrupting. I want to know what happened.

Cassian: Some heathen *dramatic pause* ate all the cookies.

Everyone: *blinking*

Mor: That was you, you idiot. You ate the last of the cookies.

“But then she snapped your neck.”

Tears rolled down his face.

“And I felt you die,” he whispered.

Everyone:

You gotta admit this guy is Rhysand, the hunky high lord of the night court 😉
