Jem Carstairs stan, first

as seen through my eyes

LIKE, HELLO?? That's like 1 month before the book comes out, that would be ridiculous, but at this point it is what I expect of them

POVs - I'm a huge fan of multi pov, I think SJM writes it better, which is a huge plus! The book is small, which makes it harder to guess, but for ACOTAR 6 I'm betting on Azriel and Nesta's povs (to also connect with the events of HOFAS), Mor's and Elain's, cause they still need it. I wouldn't be surprised if we get Feyre and/or Rhys's, but I don't think Lucien, Emerie, Gwyn and Vassa AND ERIS (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE) will have a pov in ACOTAR 6. Not yet. BUT I WOULDN'T COMPLAIN ABOUT IT THOUGH (I would scream of joy). Don't know where to place Cassian and I don't think Amren will have one.

Romances - Do I even need to say it? 🤠 But to make a prediction, I don't think we'll have any romance journey in ACOTAR 6, as it is 3 books = 1 story, so none of the journeys will be complete until the end of the series. That being said, I do think, in a ACOFAS way, we will get a glimpse of where everyone is heading narratively (the book is TINY), including romance. So we'll know by the end of it.

Nyx - Girl, this baby will be crying and pooping all around the book. Because they put this as a prediction, I'm guessing we'll get something about it. Maybe we'll have everyone being aunts and uncles and doing everything for this child, AND MAYBE, something will happen to Nyx, something very fairy tale style.

Bryce's visit - I think it will have A LOT of influence. There is the Prison being a court (Was it fully awaked?? Where are the prisoners??), the sword with Nesta, the knowledge of sword + dagger = immense power, but can anyone there wield it? There is everything they learned about Asteri/Daglan and all they did in Prythian, such as creating the Illyrians, and the simple fact that they did get a visitor from another world, so it could happen again.

ACOTAR 6 ending - I just know it will be the messiest cliffhanger ever. And because I'm a huge believer in multi-pov, I would LOVE, and wouldn't be surprised, if it ends with characters going on different directions, different places and different journeys. It's a great way to end a book and a great way to start another. Everyone scattered.

What will we learn more about in ACOTAR 6? - Look, I think a lot of the lore we were presented with in ACOSF, we got answers about it in HOFAS, like the whole High King and High Queen and General situation. There might be more to it and we'll be introduced to it in ACOTAR 6. I do think we'll learn more about Koschei (duh) and maybe the world he came from + his bargain, we'll learn more about the sacred mountains (which will probably be a huge thing) and we'll learn why Helion had that reaction to the Mask. These are from the top of my head, I'm sure there are more. Plus we'll get more info about certain characters, like Azriel's past (his mom!!), Elain's thoughts about her life, Mor and her powers and so on.

Scenes - Guysss I don't know, I hope many things happen lol. I do hope for a scene with Helion and Lucien, cause we've had only a couple of moments in which we knew they were in the same place, BUT I NEED TO READ IT. I need to see them exchanging words!

Unhinged theory - My most unhinged theory was developed at this very moment, when they made me think about Nyx. Now I'm thinking something awful will happen to this child, maybe Koschei's bargain related?? I don't know, but that would be very fairy tale and insane and I'm here for it!! I hope awful things happen to everyone honestly. Like, Aelin getting kidnapped by Maeve level. Let's get this plot moving.

thank youuu for the tag @darklove9314-blog

Reading: still on a horrible reading slump and not reading anything. The last book I read though, was Whispers of the Elderoak, very nice fantasy and light reading

Song: I've been listening to a LOT of The Vampire Lestat, my obssesion with Interview with the Vampire has come back and I love it! One of the best tv shows out there at the moment, but it is very underrated. Also just a lot of ABBA (Mamma Mia version) and Hadestown. I am a huge theater kid ✨

Movie: I'm binge watching all of the X-Men movies at the moment! I watched Spider Man 4 and I remembered how much I like the x men and I need to watch everything now lmao

Series: X-Men '97 🫣, but also I was watching Every Year After, but I kinda of dropped it and I wanna watch Sterling Point, cause I see a lot of good stuff about it

Sweet or Salty: Sweeeet, love them and I wish I could eat them for every meal

Coffee or Tea: Tea! And I love a good matcha

Working On: I was working on a novel, which sort of always working on, and drafting ideas for theater plays too! But I am now too distracted by these damn X Men 🤡

girrrl I don't remember what it was, I'm sure I was very ​sensible lmao

I know probably means nothing. It kind of strikes me it could be connected to acotar

I've been off tumblr lately and totally forgot to answer you, sorry anon!!

I didn't see the firebird drawing, but I did see the pegasus one and GOD I do hope it's connected to acotar. I just don't know if they would post something like that, while everything is locked under seven keys like it's the nuclear codes.

Totally Vassa is going to be a huge part of the book, she has too much on her to not be. And ships and all that aside, I do think a cover with a firebird or pegasus would make sooo much sense though! I don't think acotar covers reveal much about the book, sometimes it's not even super connected to it (like, ACOMAF cover with a bird). If we're trying to guess what's in the cover, I would've guessed one of the troves maybe, cauldron or something like that, but firebird and pegasus would be on point too.

I need more Elain “I think the world needs more gardens” Archeron moments

Elain will bring gardens, flowers, light and LIFE

Elain is not about violence and badass moments and being the great hero. I always take her things and relate them to flowers: I think Elain is about cultivating and taking her time, she is about nurture and growth and all the things one needs for that. I think she is about cycles and renewal. She’s always related to hope in the books and I think that ties all of this flower allegory together.

And that for me is one of her most interesting character traits now, because she represents all of that, all that is good and brings people joy, but she is not there yet. Not for herself especially.

I think she needed all of this waiting to finally have her renewal, come out of her shell and have hope for herself. To start this new cycle of her life, in which she will bring gardens, flowers, light and LIFE. Especially life to herself.
