“it was in her ‘in love with chaol’ phase too” And that was the second time she was in love with someone else but still completely enamored by Dorian! Because remember how she was in love with Sam but completely forgot he even existed when she was dancing with Dorian because it was like they were the only two people in the room??? And I’m supposed to believe they were never supposed to be endgame? Sure. Sure.
I'm not sure what the "it" in the "it was in her 'in love with chaol' phase too" is referring to, I haven't talked about TOG in such a long time is this sent to the wrong person sfgskghsfgjsfhj
My best guess is that witch scene, that was very fun? Unrelated, but I also do love the one scene where she almost but doesn't hurt Dorian despite all her anger after Nehemia's death.
But yeah, Aelin/Dorian were definitely supposed to be the star-crossed soulmate lovers and there's both author admission and a loooot of evidence that backs it up.
being a supernatural fan is whatever the opposite of 'tumblr ruining reading comprehension' is, but it's just as horrible. not only are the curtains blue, but several different writers specified the different shades that these curtains are. the curtains are simultaneously turquoise and ultramarine. you might be tempted to go OH!!! MAYBE IT'S A METAPHOR FOR DIFFERING PERCEPTIONS OF THE SAME THING!!! but no, this isn't on purpose. the curtains just accidentally stumbled into a vague idea that MIGHT be deep. but it's really not. or it might be. only the curtains know. you're left either watching it in horror or in intrigue as everything accidentally connects like the world's most disastrously entertaining wine glass stack.
Sirius had tried to befriend Remus Lupin approximately three minutes after their first class had let out, cornering him between the rose bushes and the shallow steps outside of Austin Hall, only for Remus to look down at his outstretched hand, his gaze lingering over his Black family ring, his pressed corduroys, his cashmere sweater, and then flicking back up to his smiling face to smile back at him, thin and mean and so ridiculously handsome that Sirius still thinks about it twelve years later to say, “I’m not interested, Black.”

I don't know how I could have possibly missed it, but I just noticed Robin's quite little "Yeah, I've heard her" during her coming out scene.
Not to be dramatic (although we have gone way past that at this point), I don't think you understand what it did to me, hearing her say it added ten years to my lifespan.
She says it so softly too. Of course she heard her, how could she not? She has carefully listened to Tammy Thompson sing throughout the entirety of sophomore year. Sat behind her, desperate for a life she could never have. All the Rebel Robin feelings are resurfacing yet again
if it wasn't for the warning that Tumblr gave me about character limits i would have kept rambling in the tags, htg—i have too many feelings about them and the plot and their viewpoints in general and this??? dug its claws into my brain at 4 in the morning and compelled me to bring it up, so you have more than done it justice <333
Happy birthday!! Hope you have a fabulous year <3 (Ahhh nostalgia - Due South is such a fantastic fandom. Have you read all of Speranza's fic? Chicago's Most Wanted is my favorite, but all of them are excellent.)
THANK YOOOUUUUU yes yes a hundred times yes I'm rereading all of Speranza as we speak ;; With Six You Get Eggroll is a piece of literary excellence that I'm completely blown away by every fucking time (i love kidfics so much fam), Chicago's Most Wanted and Eight Sessions are so goddamn iconic.
I'm also taking a deep breath before I get myself fucked up on helens78's porn 'cause jeeeeeesus christ. wanna know how i got my kink negotiation kink? —this fucking fic.
