getting called delusional for shipping elucien is so hilarious because out of all the ships i’ve supported, elucien is probably the one with the most evidence to back it up 😭

A SPREADSHEET OF ACOTAR FANFIC SUGGESTIONS TO GET YOU THROUGH THE CC3 BOOK HANGOVER

Reblogging this post! I haven't updated it in a while but I will next week.

Thank you to all these authors for providing HOURS of entertainment. If I'm missing your fic, let me know so I can add it to my TBR tab. Feel free to copy and steal it to track your own.

The ones with *** are my Roman empire.

Please check tags/TW on these fics before reading

The fact that people ship Bryce and Azriel together SERIOUSLY is the fuckin funniest thing to me I swear to god…this is one of the weirdest fandoms I have ever been a part of. Has no one ever heard of crackships and just having fun?? You guys would’ve hated the OUAT fandom LMAO…we knew (for the most part*cough*sq*cough*) that our random ship was just that. Random.

Not every pairing you like has to be canon and endgame for you to enjoy it. I promise. And trust me they won’t be so stop getting your panties in a goddamn twist. Its like half this fandom has zero critical thinking skills and can’t interpret a dang thing. Is it mean to say I’d hate to run across some of you in the real world? You’d probably think I was flirting with you….you’d be shipping us together if I just said hi!.

Azriel is literally shipped with everyone he interacts with and shipped very seriously, hes not even flirting with them and the fandom sticks him with them. And hes only ever shown actual romantic interest in TWO people. Mor and Elain if that wasn’t obvious.

Besides elucien none of the others are even an option in canon(not that i think they’ll get together but at least their mates for godsakes).

Imagine me, shipping Nesta and Azriel, and non stop harassing Nessian shippers. Its the same thing. It COULD happen but it won’t happen because I can interpret what the author is trying to convey when Az and Nesta interact.

Take the World in Your Hands | Eris x Elain | Masterlist

• Summary: Eris's brothers catch wind of his proposal to Nesta. They plan to find and deliver her to their father as a gift, surely winning his favor. Their plan takes a turn when they kidnap the wrong Archeron sister and Eris finds her in the Autumn Court dungeon.

all aboard the crack ship???

do I agree with the ethics of sleeping with your brother's mate? Not personally. Did I trigger my own morality OCD by writing this? Maybe a little. Was it worth it? Who knows.

Constructive criticism welcome but please be kind.

• Warnings: wounds, blood, scars, violence. Eventually smut, 18+. if I missed anything please let me know.

🥀 Gwyn X Elain 🥀

I absolutely adore my favorite crackship. I think both Gwyn and Elain are so precious and I can’t wait to read more about them in future ACOTAR books.

This is just a crackship. Just for fun. Please no hate.

I’m actually SO here for this!! 👀👀

every damn time gwynriel/elucien gets a heavy hit reminder on "your barely a ship chill the fuck out" from S*M herself they throw the biggest fucking tantrum and makes it everyones problem like...

sorry not even casual readers who dont care about elriel dont get on youre side since they know are the most likable couple to have their story told. go get youre shit together if a fictional gardener liking- being shackled, to your equally fictional book BF, gets you so fucking heated

One of you crackship lovers will know.

I'm working on warnings for the 3some post. Does the Tamlin/Elain crackship have a ship name? I can not find it anywhere, but I know the party go-ers of that ship exist in the world 🤣

If it doesn't have a name, can it Tamlain or Elamlin?

Help ya girl out 🥺

Elain and Chaol hands down I crave this

Oh my gosh yes! I saw this on tiktok this morning and haven't stopped thinking about it. They would work so, sooo good together. She appreciates a hard working man we know this. He would treat her so good.

Here for this.

Leaving Elain and Azriel out of art with Nesta and Feyre and Cassian and Rhys just makes me so sad. Elain is literally an Archeron sister and Azriel is one of the batboy brothers. Even if you don't ship them, to exclude them from pieces with their siblings is just... Really sad. I feel like Elain gets left out of the family pieces more than Azriel (even as some have Gwyn... who is just Nesta's friend, while Elain is one of the sisters....) and really... The absence is glaring. Like her or not, she's an Archeron, and if her sisters are there... She should be too.

I really hope her book resolves all this. The fact that the 'shipwar' between a canon ship and a crack ship has gotten to the point of artists leaving Elain and Azriel out of pictures with their family members to avoid 'controversy' is just... It's really sad.

I think the main purpose of Azriel x Elain and the bonus chapter was to show us how they unknowingly helped each other and set up their future books.

Elain said she didn't want male, but quite clearly would have slept with Azriel in the bonus chapter. I'm think Azriel fucked his chances when he said "this was a mistake" rather than literally anything else, because Elain obviously took it as a rejection and closed the door on that relationship by returning the necklace. But now she is in fact open to a relationship with a male, which is a huge step for her. Lucien has a chance, but let's see if he's the first. My crack theory is Elthazar happening before Elucien. Balthazar is basically an Illyrian Lucien. He fights with his words and is against unnecessary violence, plus he saved Nesta so there's his in with Elain. Its a perfect spanner because if Azriel's getting his own book/mate, then there needs to be a new obstacle for Elucien. Also, imagine the chaos if SjM made this happen and sparked a new ship war before the last book! The carnage.

For Azriel, he needed to go after Elain to show that what he felt for Mor wasn't actually love. It was infatuation and he was so easily able to switch it to Elain. He's chasing a mating bond because not having one confirms he's unworthy, and what happened in his childhood was his fault. So much trauma. He needs to meet someone who understands his pain, who feels unworthy too, so they can help fill the broken pieces of each other. Its codependent but most relationships are in romance books! So then, how fun for the second part of the bonus chapter to put his mate right in front of him, but he's too traumatised to see it. Gwyn wasn't given such a fleshed out, tragic back story to be shoved aside. And the spark in Azriel's chest was unnecessary if they aren't in fact mates. In HOFAS, Azriel states he has no mate and no partner, which works fine for Gwynriel because friendship can developed off book, but romance (in a romance series) cannot. So, time skipping forward with a recap on how "he couldn't imagine he once questioned if they were friends" is enough back story to continue forward. We'll get a friendship to lovers/healing story with the obstacle being themselves!

Well, I'll stop now! If you made it this far, then happy Friday! Hope all your dreams come true 😆

Man, do people HATE that us Elriel’s are loving and enjoying the canon story thats being written for us. We don’t need headcanons, fanfics, and crazy theories for our ship to exist, but we create them anyways cause its fun and icing on the cake 😆 . We’re just accepting what SJM giving us and they can’t stand it.

SARAH J MAAS FEEDS US SO WELL. We’re just along for the ride and having a good time.
