away with the fairies . . .

- we still have the official coloring book—mind you a coloring book that was handed out as gifts at the pilates class that includes a whole page of az giving elain TT

- we still have the special editions of acofas that emphasize 3 brothers 3 sisters on the inside cover, with no other characters to be found

- we still have sarah admitting to drafting elain’s book during the acowar/acofas days. aka she drafted elains book years before gwyn ever existed. and she even refers to this by saying she had dreams of ivy choking her and when feyre goes into elain’s mind, she sees iron gates of closed blooms. she was already sprinkling crumbs in acowar that connect to what she said she drafted

- we still have sarah and her team approving an anti EL question on CHD and answering a whole question about elain’s trauma. there were no pre approved questions about another nesta book, a gwyn book, or a lucien book. the valkyries only came up in the interview in relation to nesta’s healing journey, and that is what they will remain as. there is no hiding gwyn as a mc when she shut down brycriel in the interview because she has nothing to hide

- we still have countless media outlets and merchandise that is anticipating elain as the next main character. anything these places post has to be run through and approved by BB. that doesn’t mean they have info about the next book, it just means the expectation of the general public is that elain’s book is next and these media outlets and merch orgs recognize that and BB has no problem letting them make that assumption. there is a reason we are seeing nothing about gwyn or lucien specifically and it’s because that is not what is being anticipated, so to write articles that will feel subjective and not logical will turn off your casual audience. they won’t understand why they are being led to assume the next book will be about anyone but elain and they could damage the reputation of these companies because their audience will no longer trust them as a source of info. these organizations read the signs they are getting from the public and the publisher and they respond accordingly. and the overwhelming response is elain (and az) is next.

- we still have the canon text that has clear as day elriel foreshadowing, evidence for el bones, and text in the most recent book that says that elain is next (help one sister then the next, elain has been underestimated, get me when you’re ready for me to help etc)
