#anti g*ynriel
Text
Is anyone one of the OGs and have been around since 2015-2016 like me?
Am I the only one who misses when this series wasn’t so popular? Or when all we had to talk about was how happy feysand made us and how we were so excited for nessian and Elriel when frost and starlight came out?
Like all talk of Nesta rejecting the bond and choosing Eris. ERIS!?!?!? Like what? I’ve been waiting since 2016 for my nessian endgame and if y’all want her to choose Eris so bad then silver flames was just a giant waste of a book.
Same thing goes for Azriel and Eris. Like that’s just wrong. Y’all clearly have forgotten about their history. And the fact that Az was so focused on rescuing ERIS over GWYN should tell you all you need to know about gwynriel.
And everyone is arguing over gwyn this and gwyn that, and how it makes so much sense that the story can ONLY continue with her? I’m sorry, but no. Makes zero sense. Like where’s the love for Elain?
I just hate when I scroll through tik tok and there’s all these videos about how Cassian is shit now and Nesta needs to be with Eris or how Elriels are the biggest delusional readers in the world.
Just makes me frustrated and I know I’m not the only one. Almost 10 years this series has been in my life and it’s just exhausting sometimes.

Elriel is FUN. They actually have stakes. They are both part of the IC. They’re both the prettiest. Shadowsinger and Seer. Dark and light. Relevant to the overarching plot. Romantic tension. Sexual tension. Friends to lovers. Stolen glances. Shy touches. Everything.
Why would I ship anyone else? Because Elriel is too cliché? Bet. This is a fantasy romance series, if you don’t like cliché go read contemporary or lit fic.

Elain & Azriel are EndGame
Azriel’s bonus chapter: semi-essay on my thoughts
This post will be a long one. The shipwar has been going on for far too long, and there's a possiblity that we'll be getting closure soon. So, I want to put my thoughts out there. For Obvious reasons, I could be very wrong, but this is what I think based on canon text: (Ignore any errors..I haven't edited this, and I'm sure there are many posts like this that are way more articulate)
Elriel are endgame. If they’re not then Azriel is kinda pathetic and having him end-up with anyone else is bad writing and character assassination. (Which we sadly won’t put past sjm but I don’t think she would..at least I hope)
1- Elain has no other love interest. Yes, Lucien is her mate but we have hinted at a broken/rejected mating bond for the longest time when it comes to these two so having them accept it eventually is going to be quite underwhelming, repetitive and boring. Even Lucien seems to have given up/isn’t interested in bridging that gap between them, which we’re told in both acofas and acosf. Unless you want to count the longing pointed out by Cassian, although Cassian also pointed out that Lucien was also uncomfortable when he mentioned his mate. To add on, there is no sexual tension between the two, and we know how important that is for sjm’s couple. You can't keep whining "but Elain isn't giving him a chance, if only she gave him a chance, then maybe this and maybe that" Elain is not a seprate entity, she is what SJM writes, Sjm could have written that but she did not yet and I'm not sure if she will. It feels too late at this point, she had already shown us that Elain has feelings for someone else aka Azriel. The author doesn't have to spell everything out for us to understand to what's going on. Sarah usually makes it clear who's endgame. and she literally is. So, it would be very sudden and out of the blue if Lucien and Elain were to end up together when she had never shown it before. When even Azriel pointed this out “I think Lucien will never be good enough for her, and she has no interest in him, anyway” people can say Rhys killed elriel, that the bonus chapter ended them. But this line right here tells us otherwise! First we know Azriel and Elain can read each other so well that they don’t need words, and then Azriel tells us this. He’s literally telling us that Elain does not want Lucien.
We also cannot compare elucien to Feysand or Nessian in the “enemies to lovers" department, because these two seem to hardly care about each other. For obvious reasons she wouldn’t accept or reject Lucien in a book that isn’t hers. But if they do end up together I’d feel robbed that she had more sexual tension with Azriel than she did with Lucien. And we know that Nessian and Feysand had sexual tension before getting together. Most of what we got from Elain and Lucien was awkwardness, and discomfort. Not a single spark. Furthermore, it would feel like Azriel was just leading Elain own. Plus their romance (Lucien and Elain) would not feel organic, only getting with Lucien because she felt rejected by Azriel, which doesn’t give epic romance no matter how sjm tries to spin it. It would always make Lucien seem like the second choice.
2- Azriel regifting the necklace was a dickhead move, and offensive to both girls. Anyone thinking the regifting of the necklace ended elriel or started gwynriel is delusional and clearly doesn’t know how the romance genre works. (should’ve thrown the gift in the Sidra like Cassain did) I can’t believe Rhys isn’t paying Azriel enough that he felt the need to return the necklace to the shop instead of throwing it. Senstive Illyrian baby indeed.
3- Rhys saying stay away from Elain (can we take a moment to appreciate how sexy Rhys was for pulling rank, he really made the ship more interesting now) and Azriel actually listening to him?? When he told him you can’t order me to do that. shit would be underwhelming if Azriel actually stayed away? Hello? Secret relationship potential ? Hello? Forbidden romance potential ??? The tropes would be epic. Sjm had never done that. And I’m not saying she will, but this is how I see it playing out. + Azriel saying it was a mistake to Elain, and Elain apologizing?? The fact she was confused/hurt and probably thought she misunderstood the whole situation? SHE IS BABYGIRL?? Regardless, Azriel saying it was a mistake and it being a mistake is NOT it. This is not how romance works most of the time. This is such a basic romantic trope, why are a lot of people misinterepting it? Elain deserves better, and sjm isn’t about to hurt Elain’s feelings without making it up to her. And she’s definitely not making Azriel end up with another girl before he fixes that shit. I will be needing a proper apology to Elain.
4- Whenever people think of the bonus chapter they weigh in Azriel’s feelings far more than Elain’s. It’s clear that Elain and Azriel’s feelings are MUTUAL, ignore the bonus chapter and it’s right there in the actual book. I don’t think Elain got the memo that Azriel had a conversation with another girl after he hurt her feelings which made him realize he’s in love all of a sudden. *sarcasm* that would be very out of character for Azriel.
5- His chest sparkling at the thought of Gwyn getting the necklace was so??? I have been saying he’s for the streets and yes this was out of pocket. So, I understand people shipping them. However it could mean anything really, you can't continue saying that Gwyn in the bonus has to mean something, and that that spark must mean somethig but continue to disreagrd every single Elriel interaction like they mean nothing. Because for it to be taken as romance we’d have to ignore the beginning of the bonus, the feysand’s bonus acosf/acomaf/acowar and acofas. + we could easily take this in a platonic way, which is how I viewed it when I read the bonus. Not everything has to be romantic. And sjm will NOT introduce a new guy to make him end up with Elain since we already established Elain doesn’t want Lucien and Lucien doesn’t want her either.
6- I know that a lot of people have theories about Gwyn being a lightsinger and all of this happening because of her powers (While I do think this is very smart, it wasn’t something I thought of so I won’t talk about it). I do think it’s possible, and all the theories I saw were really cool but idk where sjm is going with this, so to make it simple I do think it could be because she’s his student, she went through a lot it could simply be platonic happiness that a girl who went through so much is going to be happy about something. Even if it was a secondhand necklace specifically picked with ANOTHER girl in mind PLUS I do think sjm wanted drama, and for people to doubt elriel cuz now they have all these obstacles, so Gwyn would be the easy choice, but the second choice regardless. The relationship would feel icky and I genuinely cannot see the potential gwynriels keep talking about. I would take the ship a lot more seriously if a) he didn’t regift her another girl’s necklace b) there was more to them in the actual book. c) he wasn’t still upset about it 3 days later…
7- There’s a high possibility Gwyn never even got the necklace..
He gave it to Clotho not Gwyn, he didn’t want his name mentioned, and then said if any other girl would like it to give it to them: the aim was to get rid of Elain’s necklace. It’s sort of a parallel with Cassain throwing away Nesta’s present.
I think it’s possible that Azriel went there because he knows how much the girls in the library have suffered, especially since his mom did too, it's possible he thought "okay this is a pretty necklace, I don't want to hold onto the reminder of what could've been, so instead of throwing it let another girl be happy about it. At least it won’t go to waste”
Clotho could tell there was something wrong, like maybe she sensed the energy and decided ayeee let me keep this aside for him, he might come back and ask for it.
The bonus did not happen at the end of the book
If Azriel was truly in love with Gwyn now /or he wanted her/ or more between them was going to happen/ or they were mates according to some theories we could have AT LEAST gotten more after the bonus.
We know the bonus happened after solstice.
Nesta mentions that Azriel was stone-faced and more aloof than usual, he wouldn’t even give her a smile. That was 3 days after the necklace situation. I think it would’ve been a great opportunity to highlight any attraction between Azriel and Gwyn.
Maybe he sees the necklace around her neck, maybe Nesta and Emerie compliment Gwyn’s necklace, or Gwyn telling them she doesn’t know who it’s from, maybe they tease her that someone might have a crush on her. Nesta could’ve pointed out that Azriel was looking at Gwyn’s necklace.or looking at Gwyn in some sort of way. Literally anything.
Anyone pointing out the way Azriel and Gwyn looked at each other. A charged glance perhaps. Literally ANYTHING. We only got him looking at her with admiration which is very teacher coded.
If sjm hadn’t made Nesta realize Azriel had a thing for Elain then maybe gwnyriel would’ve been more appealing to me. But no, Nesta noticed. This doesn’t mean nothing people.
aside from that we got nothing romantic, but a part of the fandom still acts like we need to exile Elain because she’s coming between Gwyn and Azriel’s epic love story.
Not everyone has access to the bonus.
The Azriel chapter was only in ONE store in the US, but Feysand’s bonus chapter was in 3 stores in the US and UK. I don't know but something tells me it’s more important. Soooo if SJM would do a love interest switch she would not do it in a bonus chapter, and wouldn’t be highlighting the Az/Elain interactions in ACOSF as much as she did.
Feyre’s chapter focuses on Elain, it literally tells us Elain is next once we’re done helping Nesta. EASY MATH. and the Azriel bonus also focuses on elriel/Azriel’s feelings. ENDGAME MATERIAL RIGHT HERE.
But the girls swear up and down that Gwyn and Azriel’s book is next because of a secondhand necklace.
Let’s assume elriels are the delusional ones (like so many of them say), how do we explain these.
Casual readers who usually read books and aren’t on the internet and aren’t looking for bonus content (wish that was me) (lord knows I skipped every bonus chapter in throne of glass and crescent city and I wasn’t confused about anything. Not even once) so they’d expect answers for
The Charged glance between Azriel and Elain
Azriel following the sound of Elain’s laughter.
Elain looking away when Azriel smiled at her during family dinner, Cassian god bless him that idiot could NOT piece all of that together. BUT it was still highlighted through his POV ???
His secret to tell never hers (and we do learn of that secret in the bonus but people who didn’t read it could only guess so they’d want a confirmation) and sjm did say in one of her lives that Nesta learns of one of Azriel’s secrets (she looked all giddy about it)... and that Azriel is going through some shit right now…and we learn why from the bonus chapter.
Cassian being confused that it seems like Azriel moved on from Mor
Nesta pointing out that Elain moved on from Graysen
Cassian wondering why Elain is lying about where she’s going. (I viewed this as her avoiding Azriel but idk)
Azriel’s protectiveness of Elain. He gives mate behavior without the mate part. (I will hit him on the head though omg let my girl do something)
Elain willing to look for the troves even when Nesta wasn’t, the girl wants to do something (her journey is coming next)
Nesta wondering if Elain is training with Azriel or the twins (who are spies that were trained by Azriel !!!)
Feyre telling Azriel that Elain got him beat for secret keeping. Sure it might sound delusional but Elain keeps being compared to Az/being a spy and maybe this could be a thing.
Elain speaking back to her sisters about them treating her like a child?? Hello finally
The way Elain’s mother only treated her like a pretty doll which shaped up Elain’s whole life??? I want this from Elain’s POV sooo bad
In conclusion, we’re not pausing Elain’s story so Azriel can end up with a side character in a spinoff about an og side character, we’re sticking to our og side characters for now.
Azriel being over Mor because of Elain, and Elain moving on from Graysen because of Azriel only for Elain to get over Azriel to be with Lucien (who we got nothing from aside a mating bond..) and for Az to get over Elain and questioning fate for her…only to end up with gwyn…like I don’t think anyone could take Azriel’s feelings seriously if this happens. Shit will be too goofy. Because if he ends up with Gwyn who says he won’t move on to the next pretty girl he sees afterwards.
To add to that, what plot would we have for Azriel and Gwyn. We'll get more Valkyries training, more healing journey so the plot would have to be paused for this. Nesta’s book was mostly about her healing journey and friendship, while it was nice I don’t want a repeat for the next book. Especially since we know the Rite took a toll on Gwyn, she went back to the library, wasn’t even sure she would make it to Nessian’s mating ceremony. This doesn’t give the protagonist of the next book to me. Or "I thought it was pretty obvious"
Elain’s healing journey had started in ACOWAR, she got her friends in ACOWAR. Now is their TIME to do something!! She is next.
Closing thoughts on what I think would happen based off each ship happening:
If elriel happens = new sjm couple dynamic/interesting plot. Fresh sjm protagonist that is unlike sjm's others + we don’t ignore all the foreshadowing and hints. We follow the love triangle we set up in the og trilogy + finally get a rejected mating bond. And instead of warrior training we might get spy training and instead of physical power (as far as we know) we get something more mental. Again this is very new for sjm + there’s a lot to Elain’s power that we don’t know and since Azriel was the one who found out what she was, I think it would make more sense for him to know how to help her. Imagine the sexual tension during training..yes please. I hope sjm doesn’t rob me. Elain is really mysterious, we got Nesta’s inner thoughts before her book but we still haven't gotten a peep about Elain’s inner thoughts and I’m just dying to know more. AND THE STAKES!
1) Rhys forbidding Azriel from Elain, 2) Elain’s mating bond,3) Azriel’s self doubt and how he doesn’t think he’s good enough. 4) The blood duel and the political mess we could get into. (Lucien probs won't but what if Beron would, the breeding potential, A seer must be a powerful thing she can see things others can't and I think that’s valuable. If Eris thought Nesta was valuable as cauldron made and there was no potential there, so The Autumn court probably feels even more entitled to Elain) We have high inner and outer stakes. I have a feeling SJM will fumble all this potential but a girl can dream
If elucien happens = another successful mating bond + “enemies” to lovers sort of but they won’t ever be mean to each other so maybe not enemies, just dislike and awkwardness to friends to lovers? We ignore the hints about a rejected bond and in mating bonds we trust. We also ignore all the elriel hints, and their mutual feelings. We follow the love triangle set up in the og trilogy. I don’t think Lucien could train her in anything? Maybe self defense, Idk Sarah could pull something, but I don’t see Elain leaving her circle of friends but neither do I see Lucien settling in the night court and leaving his own friends. There are no stakes but Elain’s and Lucien’s awkwardness around each other + Elain’s feelings for Azriel. Elain’s and Lucien’s plot connects though so at least there’s that, SJM could ship them off on a mission together and make them get closer. Forced proximity sort of thing.
If gwynriel happens then = we lost the whole plot, ignored the foreshadowing and hints found in the actual book. Mentor to lovers, civil with each other. Azriel has to move on from Elain first though and that could be icky. Healing journey, more Valkyries training. So we pick up from where we left off in acosf, and we’d see Azriel trying to get her to come out of the Library, or he goes to visit her there until she agrees to come out again. Maybe if Gwyn is a lightsinger then idk more training with Azriel? Again, no stakes but Gwyn’s trauma and Azriel’s self doubt oh and also his feelings for Elain. But that’s it, Gwyn as of now does not connect to the overall plot with the troves (she’s not made therefore she can’t use them) or koschei. So I don’t see us making her go on a mission like that. I’ve seen a lot of gwynriles saying Gwyn has spy potential idk where, but she could barely keep a secret for Nesta so I highly doubt she’d be keeping secrets for the IC.
Ps: the original koschei plot is 3 sisters marrying 3 very powerful wizards and like idk 3 sisters 3 brothers…we can have a retelling ya know

Wanna hear something crazy?
The only thing tying Elain to Lucien is a mating bond.
That’s it.
What else do they have? A friendship?
Nope.
That’s all g*ynriels and el*ciens have.
We have named every canon scene between Elain and Azriel and still they say it means nothing.
What irks me the most is the saving of Gwyn is like if Azriel went just for her. It wasn’t the case! The IC was there to save everyone they could! Again, he didn’t see or hear from her for two years!
Azriel walked into that Hybern Camp for Elain and Elain alone.
Let that sink in.

Interesting…I saw an anti post claiming that it’s not what the man wants but what the woman wants.
Now this may have been an anti Vassien post but they mention how we know nothing of Vassa’s sexual orientation and if she’s even interested in Lucien.
We do KNOW that Elain is not very interested in Lucien but in a certain shadowsinger.
Funny enough, wouldn’t that fit the bill for Gwyn? Antis assuming she is interested in Azriel…she’s made no mention of longing for love.

Hey there! I really enjoy reading your takes!
Do you have any thoughts on the whole re-gifting of the necklace?
I have mulled it over so many times and I really struggle to understand what on earth was the point in re-gifting it lol. I feel like it could have played out so many different ways, and it feels so out of character and just, such an odd choice. I don’t even think we’ll see the necklace make an appearance in the next book since it was just in a bonus chapter.
Thinking about that necklace will be the death of me lol 😂
I think at the surface level, Gwyn was Az’s Sidra. We know he wanted to return the necklace, to forget about him hurting Elain, him seeming to reject her, what Rhys made him do.
I think there’s a deeper meaning though, one that parallels the actual book. The first time Nesta meets Gwyn, Gwyn is singing and glowing. She’s also looking for a book. After Gwyn leaves, Nesta, for whatever reason, finds the book and brings it to her.
Cut to Az, having every intention of returning the necklace, but instead brining it to the library, for some reason, to give Gwyn the necklace.
Is Gwyn (or someone using Gwyn) testing Nesta and Az to see what she might be able to get them to bring her? Is it actually the necklace she’s after? Or maybe something else? Or, likely, are all of the details in regard to the bonus pointless, but the overarching details are important? Az and Elain want each other, Gwyn has suspicious powers, Rhys reiterates the details about a potential Blood Duel.
I think it’s supposed to feel out of character bc it is. We see how thoughtful Az is about his gift giving. He isn’t the sort to go and regift and romantic present to some random girl he’s training.

antis: azriel is a fuckboy.
he only becomes a fuckboy if he gets together with gwen bc it means he is jumping from girl to girl. with only elain and mor. he loved mor for 500 years and he met elain and after 2 years he moved on. it wasn't an instant thing that made him go "yes I will get with her" it was a build up. fuckboys jump from girl to girl. so if he gets together with gwen for the reason that he was just using elain for rebound it would mean his feelings for mor wasn't true, he used elain and now he is jumping to the next girl available.
antis: azriel only wants a mate
this will happen if he gets together with gwen bc all the reason they would be together is the mating bond. aka prove their point. if he only wanted a mate he wouldn't want elain who has a mate.
antis: azriel only wants elain bc she is the third sister
azriel started to have feelings for her before nessian got together. nesta was fucking new guy every night. thank you.
this also clashes with the second point aka only wanting a mate bc elain already has a mate.
antis: azriel feels entitled to elain.
acosf quote:
Cassian looked over at Az. “You think you’ll ever be ready for one?” Ever be ready to confess to Mor what’s in your heart? “I don’t know,” Azriel said. “Do you want a child?” “It doesn’t matter what I want.” Distant words—ones that prevented Cassian from prying further. He was still happy to be Mor’s buffer with Azriel, but there’d been a change lately. In both of them. Mor no longer sat beside Cassian, draped herself over him, and Azriel … those longing glances toward her had become few and far between. As if he’d given up. After five hundred years, he’d somehow given up. Cassian couldn’t think why.
again acowar quote with mor.
Rhys glanced over a shoulder to where I lingered by the foot of the
massive ivory bed, its carved headboard fashioned after overlapping
waterlilies. “It’s their life—their relationship. They have both had plenty of opportunities to confess what they feel. Yet they have not. Mor especially. For private reasons of her own, I’m sure. My meddling isn’t going to make it any better.” “But—but he loves her. How can he sit idly by?” “He thinks she’s happier without him.” His eyes shone with the memory —of his own choice to sit back. “He thinks he’s unworthy of her.”
so asking again...would a person who feels unworthy of probably anything in life feel entitled to something? like literally az's romance streotype/trope is "MC feels unworthy/scarred MC". they are the MC tropes that push the girl away because they feel unworthy. they want the girls to get with "someone better" pls. get it together.
if anyone is going to feel entitled it is gonna be glowstick boy. literally the word "untitled" is used.
#elriel#anti g*ynriel#anywayss...I was bored and this was sitting in my drafts. just posting for everyone to see bc why not lol

You know, without the whole Gwynriel ship I don’t think Gwyn as a character would be brought up in this fandom even half as much. In fact. I think she’d be forgotten by the fandom just as much as Emerie is (which always upsets me). Like most fanart, fanfic, or talks with Gwyn in them are Gwynriel based. Or maybe comparing her with Elain as a way to promote Gwynriel. I have rarely EVER seen anything that is just her. If the Gwynriel ship didn’t come up in the fandom, I just know we’d never see her. Or we’d only see her with the Valkyrie gang. And it almost makes me sad that Gwyn’s increase in popularity was because of a man.

This (Azriel when Elain is in danger):
But Azriel asked softly, “What about Elain?”
From the shadows near the entrance to the tent,
Azriel said, as if in answer to some unspoken
debate, “I’m getting her back.”
Nesta slid her gaze to the shadowsinger. Azriel’s hazel eyes glowed golden in the shadows.
Nesta said, “Then you will die.”
Azriel only repeated, rage glazing that stare,
“I’m getting her back.”
And this (Cassian when Nesta is in danger):
Cassian couldn't breathe. Hadn't been able to breathe or speak for long minutes now.
"Winnow me to her. Az, you find Emerie and Gwyn."
Rhys didn't move an inch. "You know the laws, Cass."
"Fuck the laws"
His hands shook. "So, what-we just sit on our asses for a week and wait?" The idea was abhorrent.
VS this (Azriel when Gwyn is in danger):
Azriel said tightly, "My spies got word that Eris has been captured by Briallyn."
Az said, "We have to get him out."
"You - we - trained them well, Cassian. Trust in that. It's all we can do."

I would also like to add some other observations, and to me these just add to how incredibly unlikely it is that G is going to be Azriels love interest, considering how excited SJM seems to be about writing smut for him.
Emerie lends her one of the ‘tamer’ romance novels - and she even says ‘if that’s tame then I m don’t want to know what’s in the others’ (I’m absolutely paraphrasing there because I can’t find the exact quote 🙃)
Nesta doesn’t want to say the word fucked or fucking in front of G - so she censors herself to say ‘she took strangers to her bed’
Nesta & Emerie were about to start talking about how good Cassian is in bed when G appears, & they do not continue with that conversation.
She also shows absolutely no romantic or sexual interest in anyone.
Cassian calls her a girl & Nesta remarks on how yes, she would be to him. So if she is to Cassian, what do you suppose she is to Azriel?
She also acts very, very young.
These are all observations I’ve made so far in my re read, I haven’t finished the book yet - but it does seem strange to me. We’re told, over & over how G is young, in both words & actions, yet people think she’s going to get a story that is incredibly smut heavy? I for one, would not be comfortable reading that unless I could see that she had overcome her trauma, was ready for that kind of relationship & had matured in some ways - and given she is not the focus of these books I find that highly unlikely.
And in contrast, what have we learned about Elain in this book alone?
She is not a virgin
She enjoyed her sexual experience
She is happy, she has friends & a role in Velaris
She has shown romantic & sexual attraction towards Azriel.
She wants to become more actively involved in helping Night Court
Has started to stick up for herself.

Gwynriels and eluciens, this soft launch of Elriel and Elain being the next main character is for you guys cause you guys obviously don’t get it.
We know it’s not a confirmation, but like Sarah has said, isn’t it obvious? We know it’s coming.
Acotar isn’t about a Pegasus, or priestesses, or valkyries, or whatever it is you guys think GWYN (and not emerie for some reason) is gonna do for the illyrians, none of that. Like Azriel hates the illyrians, he’s not gonna do anything to fix or help them, that would be Cassian, who actually loves his people despite what they’ve done. It’s about FEYRE and her sisters, and their stories and choices. It’s always gonna be centered around the archerons.
Those of us that have been around since the beginning, like since 2015 like me, have sensed this from the beginning. It’s been obvious ever since Elain and Azriel met in mist and fury and then again when rejecting a mate and questioning the cauldron was brought up in wings and ruin.
I’m sick and tired of this idiotic ship war, especially when one of the ships doesn’t even exist in canon. Like Sarah never talks about gwyn, never talks about Lucien anymore. She only mentions Elain and Azriel and you guys can’t connect the dots. Well, I think you can, you guys just refuse to accept what the rest of fandom knows. The next book is gonna be Elain and Azriel’s story and then the last acotar book is more than likely gonna be a multi pov book, similar to kingdom of ash, centered around the 3 main couples and their friends as they defeat the big bad and finish the series.
Sorry for the rant. I’ll probably get bitched at or a screen shot will be taken and I’ll be trashed on the other side. I’m just tired of the other side treating us like we’re the delusional ones. Sometimes they make no sense at all, it’s comical.

Azriel aka everyone's crush.
I know a lot of people, mainly gwynriels headcanon that Azriel has a thing for Gwyn or Gwyn has a thing for Azriel. While that was never explicitly mentioned as far as I can recall. Other priestesses did have a thing for Az in acosf that were not Gwyn.
“Azriel’s presence helped. He now trained the newest recruits, quiet and gentle yet unfaltering, and if she didn’t know better, she’d swear at least two of the priestesses—Roslin and Ilana—sighed every time he walked past.”
In conclusion, doesn't matter who has the hots for Azriel. Realistically everyone does, but Azriel only got the hots for ONE person and it's mutual.....

Once again a canon moment between Azriel and Elain was given to a headcanon fan art of Gwynriel…
They were probably tired of the played out being tied with a ribbon or singing with shadows 🫣
Here’s the CANON BEAUTIFUL SCENE! Nothing will ever compare to their scenes until we get their book! 😭

Azriel’s “glow” happened in the middle of acosf…then why is he still a little grumpy bat in hofas with Nesta and Bryce. You’d think he’d be “glowing” some more in some way if he indeed found his mate.
Azriel doesn’t need a mate. He wanted a friend and what do you know..he found that with Elain. Getting to know each other and not from obligation but because THEY wanted to. Their friendship grew into something more. You can’t call it lust. You don’t spend hours and hours with someone just to jump their bones.
The fact that there’s people who call him entitled and disgusting are the ones throwing him to the priestess who can’t leave the library. Yikes.
