The way Elain rushed to make herself pretty when Azriel grabbed the potatoes.

Gwyn is Nesta. Gwyn was the main character in ACOSF.
ACOSF was Gwyn and Az’s first POV.
LOL, apparently Elriel a red herring.
4 books of red herrings. It's like a Swedish buffet!

“Why don’t you ship Elain with her mate? Don’t you know Sarah is a fated mates author?!”
Let’s take a look at Elain’s mate vs….
The person Feyre pictured with Elain and smiled.
“Autumn Court males have fire in their blood—and they fuck like it, too.”…Lucien caught me cringing at him when her words replayed for the tenth time an hour later…I shook my head, trying not to imagine Elain subject to that…fire.
“And I think Elain—Elain would like it, too. Though she’d probably cling to Azriel, just to have some peace and quiet.” I smiled at the thought—at how handsome they would be together.
The person willing to save her himself.
Lucien was shaking his head, panting, and whirled to us. “Get her back,” he snarled at Tamlin over the ranting of the king.
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.”
The person who made her feel at ease during their first meeting.
As Lucien took off his jacket, kneeling before Elain. She cringed away from the coat, from him
But Azriel’s attention was on my sister, a polite, bland smile on his face. Her shoulders loosened a bit.”
The person she can sit in comfortable silence with.
It was the most uncomfortable thirty minutes I could recall.
Elain sat silently at one of the wrought-iron tables, a cup of tea before her. Azriel was sprawled on the chaise longue across the gray stones, sunning his wings and reading what looked to be a stack of reports—likely information on the Autumn Court that he planned to present to Rhys once he’d sorted through it all. Already dressed for the Hewn City—the brutal, beautiful armor so at odds with the lovely garden. And my sister sitting within it.
The person who knew she didn’t need anything.
Lucien murmured to me, eye still fixed on Elain, “Should we—does she need …?”
“She doesn’t need anything,” Azriel answered without so much as looking at Lucien. Elain was staring at the spymaster now—unblinkingly. “We’re the ones who need …” Azriel trailed off. “A seer,” he said, more to himself than us. “The Cauldron made you a seer.”
The person who understood her and saw her when no one else did.
“Did you sense anything?” “No—I didn’t have time. I felt her, but …” A blush stained his cheek. Whatever he’d felt, it wasn’t what we were looking for.
Lucien just stared and stared at my sister, as if he’d never seen her before.
It made sense, I supposed, that Azriel alone had listened to her. The male who heard things others could not…Perhaps he, too, had suffered as Elain had before he understood what gift he possessed.
The person Elain enjoys spending time with.
Elain, at least, would be too polite to send Lucien away when he wanted to help. She was too polite to send him away on a normal day. She just ignored him or barely spoke to him until he got the hint and left.
Azriel and Elain remained in the sitting room, my sister showing him the plans she’d sketched to expand the garden in the back of the town house, using the seeds and tools my family had given her tonight. Whether he cared about such things, I had no idea.
The person she has palpable chemistry with.
Cassian’s heart strained at the pain etching deep into Lucien’s face as he tried to hide his disappointment and longing. Elain only shrank further into herself, no trace of that newfound boldness to be seen.
Then his gaze shifted to Elain, and though it was utterly neutral, something charged went through it. Between them. Elain’s breath caught slightly, and she gave him a shallow nod of greeting before brushing past, leading Nesta into the room.
The person who gives her a gift that she wants to wear right away.
He and Lucien did not exchange gifts, though the male had brought a gift for Feyre and one for his mate, who barely thanked him after opening the pearl earrings.
“It's beautiful," she whispered, lifting it from the box. The golden faelight shone through the little glass facets, setting the charm glowing with hues of red and pink and white. Azriel let his shadows whisk away the box as she said softly, "Put it on me?"
The person who looks at her and only thinks of her.
But there she was. His mate. She was nothing like Jesminda.
Soft steps padded from under the stair archway, and there she was. The faelights gilded Elain's unbound hair, making her glow like the sun at dawn.
This supposed “fated mates author” has made it really difficult for me to ship Elain with her mate when a much more compatible option is right there. Four books with moments that solidify Azriel as the person for Elain, mate or not.

Azriel when he learns he gets to go tell Rhys that the Cauldron was corrupted by a bunch of evil soul eating breeders:

I can’t wait for the Elriel v Gwynriel war to be over. Then we can all collectively just love on Elain/Az instead of constantly trying to “prove” their endgame.

Do we think it will be something like this? Not a countdown exactly, but at least a teaser of some kind?
not just a random announcement on a random day?

Love is more powerful than the Cauldron.
Nesta pulled away, whispering, "I love you," and it was all Cassian needed before kissing her again, the force of it more powerful and enduring than the Cauldron itself.
It’s more powerful than the dread trove.
Nesta had seemed at its mercy, brought back to herself only by Ariel's list of whoever those people were-clearly people Nesta cared about. Through love, all is possible. Even getting free of death-masks.
I think it’s very likely Elain will find a love more powerful than a mating bond as well.
Some sliver of hope that had shattered today. That Graysen would still love her, still marry her and that love would trump even a mating bond.

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.

Antis are really thinking this scene was somehow “foreshadowing” Gwyn and Azriel
Tumblr media
That scene was nothing. Azriel wasn’t trying to see what made her squeal. He was literally just caught off guard by her unexpected noise.
This is what what they thought actually happened 🤭

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! 😭

How can antis hate this?
Offer and permission. Light and dark. We’ve seen these two in different eyes within the IC. Azriel and Elain are connected. There’s more to them than just “lust.” Why do they deny them?
Tumblr media
But want this? Elain is not herself with Lucien. Artists can draw them happy and loving each other but it’s not like that in canon. Elain is unhappy. Lucien is unhappy. We can see this is how Elain truly feels.
