I dont give a shit about merch otherwise.

Well its about damn time gwynriels take Gwyns absence in official merch as confirmation she just ain't it. She's not a main character. Lovely and all, but she ain't a main character.

And yes, all this merch does in fact confirm the Archerons and the bat boys are the main characters of this series. But this could have just as easily been understood by just reading the books. Gwynriels should try it.

They’re so bitter and jealous lmfao.

The Thalia tropes is an example of how Antis would eat up anything that they take as a hint towards their ship. The fact they’ve been starved awhile now, has made them deflect onto mocking elriels for enjoying ourselves.

Exactly. It reinforces what we all have been saying from the beginning: The archerons and by extension the batboys, are the main characters. Not Gwyn. Not Lucien or Eris.

SAME.

Elain, you got the quiet in the streets, freak in the sheets hot as fuck polite guy who's into all things cUltURed. Her man does not discriminate when it comes to culture. Very hot of him.

“She had looked at that cottage with hope; I had looked at it with nothing but hatred. And I knew which one of us had been stronger.”

Rhys about Azriel:

“I would not have known what it is to truly hope, even when the world tells you to despair.”

I just love that in the eyes of their siblings, Elain and Azriel are symbols of hope 😭😭

No one’s using it as “confirmation”. But let’s look at who the OBVIOUS choices are.

Sorry but there is no place for Lucien.

They’re not going to spoil the books before we get them. The official announcement from BB and Sarah is the only thing that will hint at endgame.

But I know y’all don’t have much canon. That’s why you take random things as confirmation. Like a random tattoo or peppa pig 😂 and then when things don’t go your way like with the acotar calendar and the gwyn t shirt you crash out.

You’re going to look like even bigger fools when gwynriel is announced after all your random celebrations

Meanwhile you all after CHD:

What it does show is that the general audience interprets the books the same way we do. People outside the deep fandom spaces naturally connect these themes and characters in the same direction and that’s why we’re having fun with it. You could even see it as a kind of soft launch, depending on how much communication Bloomsbury has with companies they work with for promotions.

We ascended the spiral stairs, the drop off the too-near edge falling away into warm-colored rock peppered with clusters of pale roses and fluffy, magenta peonies. A beautiful, colorful death.
