soft, sweet moments between lovers..

LIKE, OMG!!!

DEATH AND THE LOVELY FAWN!! 💗

Elriel [ACOTAR]

“And that entitles him to my time…”

“Azriel and Elain remained in the sitting room, my sister showing him the plans she’d sketched to expand the garden in the back of the town house, using the seeds and tools my family had given her tonight.”

“…my affections?”

“Oh, that’s from me… I had Madja make it for me, It’s a powder to mix in with any drink.” Elain bit her lip and then smiled sheepishly. “It’s for the headaches everyone always gives you. Since you rub your temples so often.”

SJM- “It’s a novella set after the events of ACOWAR, that bridges the gap between the original trilogy and the upcoming spinoff books, and lays a bunch of the groundwork for the set-up of the new novels.”

So many people- both in the story and in the fandom- underestimate Elain. They think she’s meek, plain, boring. They look at her as a damsel in distress, who needs a man to save her.

But what if, in the next book, it’s Elain that does the saving? What if it’s Azriel that is the damsel in distress, lured in by Koschei, much like the Snow Queen retelling SJM has alluded to?

Thank you SO SO MUCH to @nykur0h for bringing this piece to life for us! It perfectly captures the menacing, foreboding aura we were looking for.

“I would die for you.”

“I would kill for you.”

okay, well..

i would be kind for you.

i would reject the impulses to indulge in my violent nature for you.

i would wake up and get out of bed an hour early every morning to make tea and breakfast for you.

i would be there for you no matter what.

i would leave the light on for you until you felt safe, and i would hold you so tight until you felt at peace.

sure, i can be strong if i have to.

i can fight if it’s truly necessary.

but when i think about the way that i could love you, it does not make me feel violent.

it makes me feel quiet and gentle and calm.

when i look at you, i know that i am not a violent dog and i will not bite.
