I know there are a few tag games floating for acotar right now and I don't want to annoy anyone with excessive tagging (don't worry, you guys can tag me whenever for whatever. I love stuff like this) so I'm just going to give my usual Feysand tag list a nudge.

Submit your favorite quote or the rawest line you've written recently. It can be a WIP snippet or something you've already published. The point of this is just to share our love of written word.

This is from my angsty one shot I've scheduled to publish tomorrow, called, The Night the Stars Fell on Velaris.

There were many kinds of darkness. The darkness that frightens, the darkness that soothes. There was the darkness of lovers and of assassins. There was the darkness of restfulness—but this darkness…

The force that left Feyre was the darkness of agony. Of pain. Of crumbling faith and shattering sanity. The darkness of a flaming soul smothered. The darkness of rage breaking free of its shackles. A darkness of a female unhinged—absent of her starlight—of the flecks of light she looked to for peace when the hard days fell to blessed night.

yeah okay fair. I won't lie, i ran out of "weird" hills to die on after hot dog water. man. i lie awake at night thinking about that hot dog water thing. points docked for reminding me of hot dog water. 5/10

the saloon goes silent. the piano stops. "a lyrics question?" I don't look at you. i take a long, slow swig of my drink. it's a capri sun that i've squirted into a flask. everyone is waiting to see what i'll do next. the bartender, who had been polishing the same glass with a rag for the last three hours, stops. you are acutely aware of my hand gently resting on my pistol. i chuckle. "now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time." 6/10

eyy no problem bud i'm always here to represent the people gotta do the speed am i rite 8/10

well. that's. hmmmmmmm. i've been thinking about this. i guess they're both things we came up with to explain various phenomena? but. I don't know how to explain this other than. math is real. 2+2 is 4 and gravitational force can be calculated by dividing the gravitational constant times both masses by the radius squared. it works every time. that's not true of astrology. i'm a sagittarius but i'm nothing like that. astrology doesn't always follow perfect logical reasoning in the same way math does. thanks for the head scratcher. even if you're point isn't right that doesn't matter because we had a great discussion. also how did you answer this in negative time. 10/10

to die on a hill is bravery, but to pls relax everybody is wisdom. 10/10

this hearkens back to the age old moral dilemma: is man good or evil? does man, upon seeing a "do not interact" respectfully go about his way, not interacting, or take that list of triggers as a check list with which to assault his fellow man? how dare you make me use my brain for three questions in a row. 4/10

damn. it really do. 0/10

today's name shout outs to go homestuck, ratwhore, my back hurts ow, and pee lord. send me an ask to claim your prize.

A young man stands in the woods. It just so happens that today, 1st of March 1999, is this young man's birthday. Though it was seventeen years ago he was given life, it is only today he will be given a name!What will the name of this young man be?

When you push open the door too quickly, you hear two gasps, followed by the sound of fifty die crashing to the floor. "Whoops," you cringe and watch helplessly as one lone cube triggers the implosion of a second dice tower, some of which bounces off Near's head for the next two seconds. "Sun," Near greets drily, brushing aside the dice that spilled over his puzzle. "If you wanna come in, take off your shoes," Linda cracks a smile in between sniffles and giggles at Near's expression of utter defeat. From the carpet to the innumerable pillows on Near's bed, the upholstery is blindingly white and Linda is the only splash of colour in the monochromatic room, so tip-toeing around die you can barely see feels like crossing a minefield. "You left this!"  you smile. Linda's eyes threaten to spill over with tears when you pass over her notebook, and she hugs it to her chest. "So," you say and plop down on a beanbag, the only safe area to sit. "Are you two…"

"Fuck you," you hiss over the loud ringing in your ears. Some of the shrapnel may have cut into your arm, but with all the adrenaline thumping through your veins, you can't feel it. You didn't come all this way and have your own gun explode in your face to give up now, B can shove his rifle up his ass! Everything comes down to these last crawling seconds: you pick up your feet, B loads his gun, A runs towards you, and Feral and Lucy shriek.
