Nesta: it’s your mates money not yours 🤬🤬

Also nesta: has never worked a day in her life and would do nothing but spend FEYRE’S money

"People who hate Nesta never struggled with their mental health"

Or maybe, think about it, maybe people who hate Nesta dealt with their own Nestas in their life

Shit that Rhys gets hate for that never happened in the books or that are completely justified.

“Plotting to become High King.” Rhys has never stated that he wants to be High King and he’s actually said multiple times that he has no plans of becoming one. The idea was brought up by Amren and was shut down quickly by him. I don’t get why y’all are hating on him for it when he literally agrees with you?

“Trying to kill Nesta.” Sadly Rhys has never actually tried to kill Nesta. He threatened to (just like she threatened to kill her baby sister) but he has never done it and he even says that he would never hurt anyone Feyre loves. Quick question though. Nesta’s threat towards Feyre is excused with “she was just angry because her boundaries were being pushed” but why is that logic also not applied to Rhys? He was angry because his wife had a miscarriage thrown in her face. Yet these instances aren’t treated the same?

“Threatening to kill Nesta just because she told Feyre the truth.” The reason he threatened her was not simply because she told Feyre. It was because of how she told Feyre. She threw a dead child in her sister’s face (his child along with Feyre’s) and not only that but she blatantly lied to her sister and said everyone was just going to let her die in ignorance while knowing that that wasn’t true. If someone you cared about was told their child was going to die in the same manner that Nesta told Feyre would you be upset?

“Bullying Tamlin.” His bitch ass deserved it. What do you want me to say?

“Bullying Lucien.” He also deserves it. Seriously though what reason would Rhys have to like Lucien? He’s besties with the man who got his mother and sister killed, he’s the man who tried to force his mate back to her abuser, he’s the man who looked at Feyre with disgust for simply being a part of the IC. What reason do these two people have to like one another? Lucien disliking Rhys is fine but Rhys disliking him is bullying? Need I remind y’all that these are both two grown ass men?

“Forcing traumatized Priestess to work for him.” I didn’t even think people were dumb enough to hate on him for this but here we are. The library is not a prison for the priests who live there. It’s a sanctuary where they are taken to heal and they can leave whenever they are ready to. There are even counselors/therapists there to help them.

“Purposely keeping Nesta ignorant about her powers so he can control her.” If I remember correctly it was actually her who chose to refuse to learn about her abilities and it was her who threw a tantrum when they suggested that she starts learning again. The IC never forced Nesta to be powerless or under their control. She willingly refused to learn about her powers.

“Hating Nesta and abusing her because she didn’t bow to him.” I don’t even know how many times it’s said and shown that Rhys doesn’t enforce rank unless he absolutely has to. His own friends talk shit to him but you actually think he disliked Nesta because she did it? Maybe just maybe his dislike for her came from him watching her repeatedly hurt his wife? You can say he was wrong for defending Nesta against Feyre all you want but painting him out to be the bad guy for simply disliking a woman who hurt his wife is insanity.

Bonus: “Brainwashing Nesta to be happy with how everyone treated her.” This argument is just so unserious I don’t even know how to counter it😭.

“Degrading Azriel and forbidding him to see Elain and in the process taking away their choices.” This is just another instance where he was completely justified in his decision. You have to put yourself in his shoes for a second. One, he’s already stressed out because he thinks that his wife, child, and he himself are going to die and the last thing he needs is to be worried about losing an important ally over Elain and Azriel. Two, from his perspective it looks like Azriel just wanted to fuck Elain and he didn’t actually have feelings for her. “Well how could he not know that Azriel likes Elain” because as I stated before throughout Acosf his main priority was Feyre being pregnant and finding a way for her to survive it. Of course he’s not going to notice two people dancing around one another if he’s worried about his wife dying? A lot of you just forget that Rhys is also a High Lord who will put his people above everything (except for Feyre).

Ending it here even though I could go on and on about how delusional a lot of his antis are. This post would just be way too long.

Reminder that none of the Archeron sisters can cook and Elain canonically didn’t start learning until acofas. Saying Elain or Nesta must’ve been cooking as a way to prove that it wasn’t just Feyre doing everything isn’t the gotcha moment some people think it is, because those two can’t cook either. Not to mention they didn’t have money for ingredients and when Feyre did bring in meat that’s all they ate.

Making arguments saying we and Feyre don’t value feminine work just because it’s not discussed by the author who cleaned their ramshackle, half broken cottage, is a fallacy. Not to mention, the Archeron’s were so poor that there wasn’t any room for this so called feminine work to be done. They were so deep in poverty the only thing that genuinely mattered was if they weren’t going to starve to death. Nesta and Elain canonically did nothing to keep the family alive.

Argue about the hypothetical things they may or may not have cleaned but when you find evidence of them actually doing something to support the family’s livelihood, come find me.

Oh, are we still playing the “sweet wittle princess Nesta got yelled at by the big bad bat king Rhys” game?

Nesta wasn’t the villain there but she absolutely deserved Rhys anger. Ember was also soooo far out of line. Nesta made a call that endangered her loved ones and court. Yes, it worked out but she had no way of knowing that just because she and Az traveled with Bryce for a few days.

Rhys had every right to react the way he did.

Let’s be real here: if it had been Elain everyone would be shitting all over her for doing it. But because it’s “self insert” Nesta now her stans want to act like Rhys is this evil bastard. Honestly Rhys is a helluva lot better than me because I would have dumped Ember off the highest balcony at the House of Wind.

Then again what do I know? Apparently I’m “just a Rhys stan who defends his every action blindly” according to every Nesta stan I come across when they find out I hate her character, lmao 🤷‍♀️

Fellas is it my duty to defend my garbage heap of a sister if she, who selfishly leeched off of me for years & now has a mansion because of me, gets called out for telling me to get out of that same house, poking my changed eating habits due to having turned and dismissing my trauma right after I tell her how I was tortured & almost killed?

I just think it's funny how Nesta being awful to people around her isn't a good enough reason to dislike her according to a lot of Nesta stans.

They mock people for disliking her saying shit like "boohoo Nesta is mean"

She IS mean. Don't pretend that it's not a valid reason to dislike her.

Get a grip, the way some of ya'll defend Nesta's actions and then bully people who dislike her just tells me you like Nesta for the wrong reasons.

I love how Nesta stan’s love to overlook details.

Like when they say Feyre just destroyed the apartment Nesta lived in and don’t mention the fact that they had it turned into a place for displaced people after the war.

Or how Feyre has a fancy art studio for the ‘privileged’. They don’t mention that Feyre uses it to host children with trauma after the war to help them recognize their feelings.

Or how apparently Feyre is an ableist for putting her foot down with Nestas shitty abusive behavior and forget the fact that Nesta literally used to purposely move her DISABLED fathers cane far away from him.

I think it’s very interesting that “Feyre stans” (antis in disguise), defend Nesta and Tamlin’s actions, then use their “love” of Feyre as a manipulation tool against anyone that calls them out on their hypocrisy. You’re not a Feyre stan if you defend Nesta and Tamlin’s abuse of her, and still ship her with her abuser.

And the fact that these people spend majority of their content criticising Feyre’s character for no longer accepting her abusers abuse, than they do for Tamlin and Nesta’s treatment of Feyre, is very telling. And when they’re called out for this, they try and switch the argument and make it all about how horrible Rhys and the IC are…Love, we know you’re not a Feyre stan and we know you love Nesta and Tamlin bc of their treatment of Feyre. You don’t have to hide it anymore 💀

sjm constantly forgets that feyre kept her sisters alive for years and never received the slightest recognition. she continued to be mistreated even after she saved all prythian, and now sjm comes to say that rhys owes nesta something for saving feyre’s life lol ah you gotta be kidding.

“Acotar would be shorter if nesta had a gun”

She’d be too lazy to get off her ass and use it

if theres one thing you should know about me, it’s that i’ll defend and love elain archeron and absolutely loathe and hate nesta archeron until the day i die.

“Nesta is a girl’s girl” mind you she has brought up the sex lives of both of her sisters as a way to humiliate them.

Why is it that you can’t bring up how silly the valks winning the blood rite was without one of their stans being like “b-b-but feyre 😖😖” What about her?

The walked away from the fight with the wyrm about to get sepsis and die from her injuries. She walked away from the rainbow because she wasn’t just fighting with a sword she had her magic that she had been training extensively for months at that point. She’s able to winnow and get away from opponents, none of her fighting in that scene was one on one and she had many many resources available to her. Then Im sure someone will bring up the twins from Hybern and that fight.. yk the one where she was fighting side by side with Lucien and again had the ability to winnow and would’ve lost were it not for that ability, Lucien’s presence, and her quick thinking to burn one of them. All of those fights were pretty reasonable? She’d already been training for some time in acowar and acomaf, has always been canonically a quick thinker and someone who is very observant and in tune with her surroundings.

Meanwhile the blood rite erased already established canon in order to ensure they’d win. The monsters of the illyrian steppes that were said to attack anything they find suddenly having magic noses that exclusively detect illyrians? The illyrian males present simultaneously being willing to put aside anything in order to hunt those three down because they’re females and the illyrians are sexist while also being too distracted fighting each other because they actually don’t care that much about the females to bother hunting the valks down? Which is it? Are they evil monsters who will stop at nothing to hunt down women or are they stupid brutes who only care about fighting each other? Those same illyrian males who at this point in their training are meant to be some of the best sword wielders in Prythian actually can’t fight for shit and despite being brutally trained from a young age are blundering fools who actually can’t fight well and are sloppy and careless. Don’t even get me started on the friendship bracelets situation because that was just so stupid. At least when Lucien helped Feyre in acowar it’s because he was already there, not because his eye is actually magically connected to her bc of their beautiful friendship and bond and he can find her anywhere.

It’s totally ok to have enjoyed the blood rite in that book but admit you enjoyed it because it was entertaining, not because it made any sense. Don’t try to deflect the poor writing in that plot onto fight scenes that are nowhere near as nonsensical.

no, being a victim doesn't excuse being a shitty sister and a shitty person.

everytime nesta stans say she represents the "oldest daughters" an angel dies

When has she ever behaved like an oldest daughter? She has never once in her life done anything for anyone. Give ne a break and go back to school to learn how to read ffs
