“I didn’t let myself think…”

“I didn’t let myself think….”

“No one says war can’t be lucrative,” Helion countered.

So we know Helion's just a war profiteer. And the night court has the largest army. No wonder they're close allies.

And when some long haired blond guy who's into flowers and music argues that war actually hurts the people he's the bad guy. Ok. Sure.

Day 1 | Childhood | Elia with her mother

Day 2: Family | Regent Elia Martell with her son, King Aegon Targaryen

killed another high lord in one punch

dragged yet another high lord into war

was the only one strong enough to defeat amarantha, it's like rhysand's whole plan to use tamlin's raw beast power

Sure, Lucien came back from Spring once with a black eye but then Tamlin invites him to the Spring Court for Solstice despite their fight. And Lucien just goes, no questions asked. Lucien then stays the night at the Spring Court and hunts breakfast for the two of them so they can eat together.

Clearly whatever happened as their relationship deteriorated, nothing was bad enough to break them apart for good. The friendship still matters to them, they still care about each other.

And then Rhysand inserts himself into the situation when it is not his business and tells Tamlin that he deserves to be alone forever because he's such a despicable guy and he'd be better off dead, actually. (Psychopath behaviour btw)

And Tamlin believes this and kicks Lucien out, complete with sending him all his belongings like a couple going through a divorce. Even then Lucien still doesn't say a bad word about him. Still defends him, is still on his side. The loyalty is still there. And he doesn't blame Tamlin but is aware that this is Rhysand's and Feyre's doing.

Tamlin had been preyed on since he was a child by Aramantha. We don't know if she did anything to him. She might have.

Tamlin was still and didn't move under the mountain because if he did, everyone could die or be tortured. He was constantly watched. If he helped Feyre she could have been killed.

But right drugging someone so they can't remember and putting paint on them which corrects itself if you touch it (meaning you could be groping them and they'd have no idea because it only stays smudged if it's not you) while making them lap dance on you every night for months wearing barely anything is so much better.

Twisting someone's broken arm so they agree to a bargain is so much better than staying still and doing nothing. Right ok.

Tamlin and Feyre literally agreed not to talk about their trauma. No Tamlin wasn't ignoring Feyre's vomiting in the mornings while he slept through the night.

Feyre wasn't the only one with trauma. You understand that with Rhys. You see his nightmares. Just because it's not on page doesn't mean it's not happening.
