I’m not going to link the post, but I will share this theory that an E/riel made (a while ago) about Azriel’s bonus chapter/Solstice/Rosehall.

Here’s what it said:

“So we know for sure last solstice Azriel went to Rosehall. He went to visit his mom apparently. Which makes me think this might be something he always does. After solstice he visits rosehall, visits her. What if that's what happened after solstice? What if after all that Az went to his mom and talked out everything, and maybe His mom said: go grab that damn necklace back, you acted foolishly. And that's why he was pissed three days later? Cause he knew he messed up trying to regift it? And one common thought the ACOTAR fandom has is that who lives in Rosehall could be Az mom. Rhys asks about Rosehall as if is something common, something that Azriel probably does every year maybe? some kind of tradition? What If in ACOSF, after solstice, he went to Rosehall, he visited her. What if after all that happened between him and Elain and Rhys and the necklace, Az went to his mom and she asked him why he was sad (just like Clotho did!) and he told her everything, and maybe his mom said: "you acted foolishly. Now go grab that damn necklace back." Text from Silver Flames : Three days passed with no word from Cassian. He'd been replaced in training by a stone-faced Azriel, who was more aloof than usual and wouldn't even give her a smile. “And that's why he was mad three days later? Cause he knew he messed up trying to regift it? Maybe the necklace is now in Az pocket, hidden this whole time?”

What are your thoughts on this? I hope k don’t come off as rude/disrespectful to the E/riel who came up with this, but this is a theory that I politely disagree with.

alright i'll be real with you, i totally forgot about rosehall and when i did remember it, i legit thought it was part of the spring court 💀

now for my actual opinion on the theory: i mean... sure? i guess i could see what they're going for here?? but it just seems like an awful lot of mental gymnastics to me. like... really? i highly doubt his mom gives one fuck about a necklace he gifted to a woman lol. and why would he try getting it back? he'd have to go to gwyn himself and he was quite adamant about not wanting her to know it came from him

overall y'all (e/riels mostly) need to let that damn necklace go. it was a clear metaphor for az's attentions shifting from one woman to another, like sjm spelled it out for you word for word. crack open some books outside of those dark romance booktok ones you love and actually analyze some text that isn't made for the sole reason of getting people off

a for effort though!

You know, one of the most interesting thing about BG3 to me is that all the different choices and RP moments you can make mean that it's very easy to have a multitude of playthroughs that don't neatly fall into the boxes of "good" or "evil" runs.

The other interesting thing is that whenever Larian talks about their game, it feels like this was a complete accident.

ohhhhh man people on here will be so willfully ignorant about their biphobia in favor of stupid fucking pseudo labels “how is pan/omnisexuality transphobic and biphobic🥺i dont understand and ive never understood even though i have 5 bisexuals explaining it to me in this comment section and how it’s offensive to them for me to assume they only like cis men and women🥺bi people say they are only attracted to 2 genders so whats the big deal🥺” im literally going to smack you in the mouth with my baseball bat. blocked

Done with hiking. I got knee deep in some streams heheh which is my preferred state of being. Between my water shoes and my short shorts I was Fully prepared for this. I also dipped my head under some waterfalls. And my arms. Really it was only my tank top and shorts that I didn't dunk, and even then they got splashed some. I probably wouldve gone full aquatic if I didn't have my phone with me lol

I'll be posting some pictures after I get better reception. I had a lot of fun!

To be honest "people who ship them need therapy I think" is applied to both of them, but it's me, I'm the people who need therapy.

there is absolutely nothing more soul crushing than going to the spotify page of a band you cherish despite being obscure and long gone and seeing that the fourth result for the “discovered on” section is a 17+ hour fucking anime boy kinnie playlist.

feverish ramble about tiktok and social media politics, probably not super well phrased so dont be too nitpicky about shit i said, but ive been meaning to put this into words for a while

i do think its kind of interesting (read: concerning) how tiktok is like the one social media site where everyone all across the political spectrum is so quick to somehow blame the company for opinions people have on the app, like there is massive groups of people having weird fringe shit opinions on tumblr and there is never really any calls to shut tumblr down over it. and even with youtube there is this certain nuance where people blame youtube for how it recommends right wing content so readily, but do not equate that with youtube being in on some sinister US government conspiracy or whatever, but when tiktoks (fairly neutral and overall not much more sinister*) recommendation system pushes fringe content to people (who usually interacted with similar content before) it immediately becomes a whole conspiracy theory about how china is trying to do x or y and how they are definitely doing this on purpose. rather than it being the same bad recommender as youtube which pushes divisive content as it creates engagement. like to be clear this isn't a defense of content any recommendation systems push, and they definitely need to be made more robust to prevent artificial polarization, but when it comes to actual suppression of content all social media sites do that sometimes (it's not like the US government never requests and does shit like that either lol, like try posting a link to ddosecrets.com on twitter, good luck) and im just tired of seeing misinformed blatantly sinophobic takes about tiktok from all across the political spectrum, like no forcing tiktok to be an american company instead wont change shit, if they do censor it would then just be at the whims of the US which is what they really want. * basically it comes down to the shorter form content making it way easier to forget about anything that shows up on your feed that you arent actually interested in as you just swipe it away, studies have shown no significant difference in youtube and tiktok recommenders
