hi you can call me may (just a nickname😛🌸)

over 18!

I can see there are loads of new people in the fandom now so basically I was in the Tumblr fandom for years and was veryyy active here last year (probably too active😭) then I deactivated around 6 months ago and just brought this blog back like last week. I put why I left here if anyone cares lol 😭 love how I said I was going to be positive and less sad and I've been everything but that. help.

and if it wasn't already obvious I am just very obsessed with lyrason I am in fact no1 lyrason glazer🥹

to me lyra has always existed outside of lyrason idk maybe I just relate to her too much because Lyra and Grayson happen to be 2 of the characters I relate most to but for me Lyra has always been her own character. If you can’t see Lyra as her own character past grayson, to me that suggests an inability to see past the male character and the romance and turn to excuses because it’s easier 😭 this ends up pushing the agenda of the romance overtaking everything. I don’t really see how people manage to read her as just a love interest when there is so much to her by herself. I also don’t understand why “Lyra was created to be graysons loveinterest” is used as an insult. Like yeah and I was created to be my parents child😹 spoons were created to eat with 😹 do you get what I mean😹 she didn’t just drop out of the sky into the books all by herself. We KNOW she was created to be his love interest, that was the role she was always intended to fill coming into this series. that is obvious, its not an insult to say she was created for that role because thats the truth. The same way Gigi and Savannah were created to be his sisters or Rohan was created to be part of javery story in tbh. But despite being CREATED for that reason, that’s not all they are. OF COURSE Lyra was created to be his love interest, that’s obvious but just like Gigi and Savannah are more than just graysons sisters, Lyra is more than just his love interest. She represents so many different things and sees things in ways other characters don’t and is defined by unique values and presents a healthy familial bond and is so loving and seeks the truth and shows such strong empathy. and then people compare her to gigi or savannah and THEIR romances as if thats a good way to show shes not well written. no lyra isnt your ice queen kind of character nor is she a sunshine (and thats what makes all 3 of these girls so wonderful. how different they all are and I love all 3 but people dont see that) because shes had her life split into 2 and that seeps into her character and the way she acts and lyra isnt a loud character. shes quiet and subtle and shows qualities that are understated and if you cant see that, genuinely we've got to read her arc better. because its all in front of you. blaming it on the romance isnt as smart as it sounds 😭 if anything I would say thats MORE shallow because that to me suggests either not reading her arc with the depth required hence you dont see her depth (which again is characterised by trauma and pain) OR feebly trying to "defend" lyra by saying "shes nothing but the romance she doesn't deserve this😿" when actually there is so much to lyra so what happens is an absolute disservice to her character because it feels like defending her but actually its just showing me an inability to read past Grayson/lyrason into whats right in front of us. This ends up making her look weak and boring because we think that complaining about the romance does her good when actually it doesnt and everything that makes lyra so unique is being swept under the carpet because we'd rather cry over Grayson than analyse and talk about Lyra

If you can’t see Lyra as more than a love interest and fall back into complaining “she’s nothing more than graysons love interest, give her depth” then I see that as a reader problem. I see that as not putting in enough attention to Lyra and it’s easier to complain about her character rather than truly understand her. I see that turning to the surface level reading and not being able to separate characters and romances. because I could write essays on everything I love about Lyra Kane and who she is and maybe that’s cos I’ve read her chapters over and over and over but at this point I feel like no one else feels the same and I’m the only one who doesn’t think she’s just a love interest 😭 I can understand not connecting to her or liking her but to me seeing her as nothing more than a love interest is a massive reader problem because it’s all there in the books if you read into her character hard enough. Lyra Kane get behind me fr I will forever defend you omg this sounds so harsh but I do NOT play about lyra or Grayson or lyrason fr 😹 and lyras characterisation to me is so beautiful

I SAW HARRY STYLES LIVE GUYS IT WAS AMAZING LIFE IS WORTH LIVINGGGGG😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Avery - 8/10 loves the experience and the excitement and the feeling of the music pounding but hates the fuzziness in her ears and has a noise limit plus a bit of an awkward dancer

Rohan - 10/10 and obviously he doesn’t buy a ticket he sneaks in and steals snacks too

Gigi - 10/10 loves loves loves concerts doesn’t even matter who’s performing she’ll go. Jumps around all over the place and dances with everyone

Savannah - 6/10 she does like a concert but it has to be an artist she really truly loves in order for it to be truly enjoyable otherwise it’s just a load of noise. Very cool collected concert dancer

Lyra - 7.5/10 enjoys concerts but they wouldn’t be her first pick of a day out and does prefer something calmer but when she’s vibing then she is well and truly vibing and letting her hair down and feeling free and looking gorgeous (ok but Lyra dancing along to dance no more and pop and ready steady go and aperture YESSS)

Grayson - 2/10 not for him at all. Hates the noise and the fact that he can’t hear himself think or others speak, wants to go somewhere quieter and calmer. The guy with the earplugs who sits down the whole time and is probably nervous something bad will happen. Wouldn’t mind a classical concert (but coming up roses and fine line with orchestra for Grayson YESSS)

Lyrason stare lovingly into each others eyes during adore you this is real this is facts

Xander - 10/10 whats not to like, again I think like Gigi he wouldn’t care what type of music it is hed just happy to be there and have a good time fr

Max - 9/10 again adores a concert. Outfit is the most important part for her and she’s a massive talker during the songs lol

Slate - 1/10 would rather get a job as security than be in the audience

Eve - 3/10 not really her thing, she doesn’t think being surrounded by a bunch of random people screaming is enjoyable at all but if she’s in a VIP box then maybe. Would still rather somewhere else

Alisa - 4/10 doesn’t despise them but wants to do something calmer and quieter. Put her in charge of the branding and marketing and all that and she’s happy

Nash - 5/10 not a fan of massive concerts but would go to some hoedown throwdown in a barn and do line dancing or something

can your hear me THROWING UP

@ midnightswithmya said this first so thank you so much!!!

Lyra is from Kansas!!!!!
