Honestly, I cannot wait to read Elain and Azriel’s story.

There is something about their connection that feels incredibly genuine—quiet, steady, and deeply rooted in something real. They deserve the freedom to choose each other, to be together openly, to support one another without the weight of expectations or consequences hanging over them. To simply exist side by side, without hiding.

I love that we have this month dedicated to them. It feels like a little shared space where we can all indulge in our thoughts, our theories, our tiny observations—the ones that slowly turn into full-blown obsessions. They truly live in my head rent-free, and I don’t even mind.

Elain, to me, represents a different kind of strength. A softer one, but no less powerful. She is resilient without ever losing her grace, her kindness, her composure—and I think that’s often misunderstood. She isn’t naïve; she is simply gentle in a world that doesn’t always value that. And I have this feeling that when we finally get to see more of her, to truly understand her depth, she’s going to surprise so many people—in the best way possible.

And Azriel… quiet, reserved, always holding so much beneath the surface. With her, I feel like he could finally let himself unravel, open up completely, and show parts of himself we’ve only ever glimpsed. There’s something about the way they understand each other without needing words that makes everything feel even more intimate, more meaningful.

Because at the end of the day, what they have goes far beyond anything physical. It’s emotional. It’s instinctive. It’s something that has been quietly building all along.

And to me… it’s always been clear—they were made for each other.

May she rest in peace!

Unfortunately, these people don't stop scamming, they delete their accounts, wait for things to calm down, then come back with a new account and do the exact same thing all over again. Exposing them has helped a lot of people recognize them when they return.

Trust me, they usually end up exposing themselves by accident, they repeat the same patterns without realizing it, and that's exactly why sharing information about the scam and any relevant details can help other people recognize them before it happens again.

Yall are just as bad as she is.

He gave her a scenic tour to distract her from the argument with Nesta😭

114 days until elriel book.

first art by vats9_9, comm by elain_kingslayer and second art by tangerine.eileen

tbh i don’t really have words. this is shocking and devastating and i’m praying for her family in all of this.

if you have the means to donate to help those suffering in the aftermath of the venezuela earthquakes, here are some links. i may update if i find more.

She would harass elriels under tiktoks.

She went as far as to comment under elriel arts found on Pinterests.

She would constantly provoke elriels.

She made a horrible elriel one shot.

Apparently tried turning artists against elriels.

Antis were fine with her behavior. No one called her out. They even joined in. I can gurantee you, most of them have conspired together against elriels.

And now they’ve realised how horrible she was?

Elriels were right about her from the beginning.

Where were you all when she was in the comments of literally any TikTok, any Instagram post causing shit rather than minding her own business? Where were you all when she stole from an artist previously? Where were you all when she baited elriels then acted the victim? Where were you all when she went out of her way to mess with appreciation weeks/months?

I always say I wish they’d call out their own, so on the one hand I’m glad they’re actually doing it but it once again comes because of some other drama - not because of how she treated us. If this were a moral argument, it should have started long ago. And perhaps we would not have 3 artists left unpaid.

Because that’s how I knew to BLOCK HER (and her friends!) before she started posting commissions because she was giggling with everyone how stupid elriel art/artists are. I wasn’t her friend but I saw it with my own eyes countless times.

I think if you spend any time around her you’d know how she felt. She was bold enough to tell an elriel commissioner elriel art sucks and her ideas would be better and fresh. TO AN ELRIEL COMMISSIONER IN HER DMS when she played at making friends with everyone.

Like we had no idea? Like we hadn’t seen how she behaved for months on TikTok? Like people don’t talk to each other??? So when she got smacked with the evidence for Elain week (WHICH SHE TRIED TO SABOTAGE and then control her own) she said “I’m so disturbed you know so much about me!” Well! Digital footprint. 🫠

So saying that you don’t know you don’t know, you couldn’t have seen it, save it. She and 100+ gwynriels had a real laugh on Twitter when I posted my art, my mentions were a MESS. You don’t respect artists unless they fit your agenda and I can say that’s a fandom wide problem.

But back to my art that got dragged to HELL. Katie then took the SAME theory regardless of how it was “nestas sword” and went to an elriel artist (who she’s claimed was unprofessional btw!) to have the very same idea done just by a bigger artist and make it gwynriel this time!

And in the caption she felt it was sooo original even though weeks prior she and others had a great big laugh over my art. I DO NOT feel SAFE or RESPECTED or SUPPORTED in this fandom as it is and I think that goes for a LOT of artists that dare touch it.

Even before I started posting I saw for MONTHS how antis talk about and treat elriels and their art. I couldn’t look up elriel without seeing it. I’ve seen my own friends stuff be reposted and made fun of countless times, people who aren’t involved in drama at all. ((In fact, I think that’s what radicalized me! Because I’m otherwise very openminded and interested in multiship. ))

And this isn’t to say elriels don’t do it I know they do and i’ve confronted people about it. I hate art bashing and I don’t understand how anybody imagines motivating art posting with that sort of environment. It’s not possible.

I lost all motivation and I’ve even had someone tell me to kill myself LMAO so! I don’t want to hijack this drama because it’s NOT about me but I’m infuriated with this honorable air of “we would never! We had no idea! We love artists!”

You don’t unless they work towards your agenda. And I’m saying that to ALL. I’m so fed up with this hostile environment that doesn’t let artists create or befriend unless it’s within the pre established boundaries. I’ve really had enough.

And to clear some things up:

Katie wasn’t bullied for her gwydion gwynriel art. People just pointed out the hypocrisy.

Katie never asked unii if she could 1:1 copy her art. She just didn’t. That’s why the DMs were shared. You can find threads on this.

But Katie (and others) went on about how unprofessional she was. Even though Katie went AFTER she saw that her copying wasn’t as subtle as she thought. Stealing from a small artist is not “respecting artists”. And “exposure” isn’t an apology.

While Gwynriels reduce the Valkyries to just Gwyn, Elriels have numerous magazine articles, merch, 🩷💙 from the author, and four books full of shared moments. And you know what else? Crescent City 2 & 3.

We Elriels are really damn confident and are just having a laugh at the desperation of the Gwynriels, who are literally grasping at every tiny straw and clinging to fanon like little monkeys to a vine.

what makes you think that he didn't create the fake elucien mating bond?

Maeve in the throne of glass series did the same! she created a fake mate for rowan and killed her so that roman will forever stay broken and bound to her! until he finally found aelin!!!

what if the king of hybern intentionally did the same to keep tamlin's alliance with him. tamlin already wanted feyre and by binding elain with lucien the king of hybern could have easily used their alliance to his own benefit. but things didn't go as per his plans.. feyre broke the spells around the palace and mor was able to rescue nesta and elain. if he had succeeded he could have used not only tamlin but also lucien for his benefits.
