a blog to yap about 🌸them🦇

“Again,” he ordered, rubbing his hands against the cold, grateful for its bracing bite and the distraction of this impromptu lesson. 

You do realise that the same thoughts Lucien had towards Elain when she was at her worst and weren't reciprocal at all (touch her, taste her, smell her)

Were the same fucking thoughts Azriel had? He wanted to taste her 😺, he smelled her arousal and her scent (his eyes rolling back btw) and he touched her nape, her neck, and her hair (erogenous zones, mind you)

You mean to tell me that you prefer Lucien's scene, where she was miserable, than Azriel's scene, in which his thoughts were THE SAME as Lucien's, except Elain was turned on, healthy and reciprocating everything.

You guys are creepy and weird as fuck.

In order to be an Elucien or a Gwynriel, you actively have to erase, ignore or twist:

Elain wearing cobalt blue during their first encounter.

Elain and Azriel talking and chatting when the situation was tense.

Azriel being poetic with Elain when he's not a man of words.

Feyre predicting that they would look handsome together and that she would cling to him.

Lucien knowing Elain is his mate only after she went out of the Cauldron, and not when she was human.

"I want to know if she's worth fighting for"

Azriel knowing Elain is a seer when Lucien did not.

"Take her to some garden" vs "Would you like me to show you the garden"

Elain calling Azriel's scars beautiful.

Azriel knowing before anyone else that Elain was missing.

Azriel spending time with her. Willingly.

"I'm getting her back, then you will die, I'm getting her back. vs "get her back"

"You came for me" "Devouring the sight of him"

Azriel carrying Elain bridal style.

Azriel giving Elain TruthTeller.

Feyre painting them as Light and Dark. Describing the knife as a bridge.

Death & The Lovely Fawn

Both of them being described as strong in their hope by Rhysand and Feyre

Elain using TruthTeller to step out of a shadow to kill the KOH.

Elain kissing his cheek when he wanted to unchain her.

What if THAT is what she needs?

Azriel refusing to spy on Lucien to respect Elain's privacy.

Nuala and Cerridwen being her best friends and helping her with her trauma.

Nesta hinting that Az, Nuala or Cerridwen maybe gave her spying lessons.

Azriel taking the dish of potatoes from her hands and making everyone wait for her to eat.

Mor looking at them like omg.

Azriel slowly forgetting about Mor, said by Cassian. I think.

Elain teasing him and Azriel laughing openly for the first time in forever.

Azriel staying up late to listen to Elain's gardening plans despite having to get up early to go to Rosehall the next morning.

Three Sisters, Three Brothers, Three Mountains, Three Stars, Love me, Touch me, Sing me.

Azriel following Elain's laugh.

Azriel's shadows ready to defend Elain from her own sister and his friend.

Nesta noticing Azriel's secret during Solstice.

Cassian noticing that Elain blushes and looks away when Azriel smiles at her.

Cassian noticing that Azriel becomes colder when he thinks something happened to Elain.

Azriel refusing to expose Elain to unknown darkness, as Cassian refused with Nesta.

Azriel and Elain brushing their fingers and glancing at eachother.

Azriel being the first to say Happy Solstice to Elain and not Feyre.

Nesta noticing that their looks are charged.

Azriel hating the smell of the Elucien bond but loving the scent of Elain.

What if the Cauldron was wrong.

Azriel and Elain ready to kiss.

Offer and permission.

"I'm sorry" "Don't apologise, never apologise, it's me who..." Romance 101.

Azriel having not only love and cherish but also lust. (So, no sibling coded ship and not only lust)

Azriel designing a necklace specifically for her, thinking about her. A rose necklace.

Azriel saying that he'd beg on his knees for her. (Remember what Sarah said during the CHD podcast)

The Cauldron being indeed part corrupted said in CC3

💙🩷

and I probably forgot about tons of more moments. Feel free to add more Elriel moments!

His stomach twisted as he pulled his hand from her hair and stepped back. Forced himself to say, “This was a mistake.”

-

I'm starting to think these people have never read other romance books. (like they claim) Considering this is like a popular microtrope. 💀 We all know damn well when either a fmc or mmc says this, they don't mean that shit.

Are we shocked, chat?

So...

A direct order from Rhys.

The threat of Lucien retaliating to defend the mating bond via a battle to the death.

Azriel most likely killing Lucien which Rhysand agrees would happen.

"Rip apart any fragile peace and alliances".

With not one Court, but two, plus the Band of Exiles.

Rhysand says he'll make Az regret it if he disobeys.

All of that isn't forbidden enough, "satisfying or interesting" enough for you?
