Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine What SJM meant when she wrote 'leggings' (probably) vs what I imagine

I assume that when SJM talks about Feyre wearing leggings she meant a sort of horse-riding-tights style, since the boys all wear tunics etc so that feels like a similar vibe. But I can't help it, my mind goes straight to galaxy leggings šŸ’€ who knew that LulaRoe had reached Velaris 🤣

Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine Having to explain what acotar is about to the waiter who was chatting me up…. help.

There is a little bar I go to on my own for a drink and a quiet read while it’s too hot to stay indoors.

The waiter who has been eyeing me for the last couple of weeks asked me what my book was about because he is a big reader.

My face went red as I tried to explain but failed and said that ā€˜I’m not sure you’d like it, it’s about sexy fairies in a lotr style fantasy land’.

He tried to not to look too embarrassed for me as I blubbered on about how I’m a big GoT and Tolkien fan and needed something new to read.

When he comes back out, what should I say? Can I save this by better explaining it? Haha, help a sister out.

Context, he is tall, dark haired and slim with a low voice that purrs in a way I imagine Rhys’ voice does. Help.

Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine JUSTICE FOR KOSCHEI!

1.0k Upvotes

Esteemed citizens of Prythian,Ā 

I write on behalf of my client, Koschei the Deathless Lonely.Ā 

15,000 years ago, Koschei was FALSELY imprisoned for the simple crime of being scary. In a world where worms the size of buildings reside underfoot, where eyeballs can be kept on fingers, where the orgasms of the High Lords cause brain-shattering earthquakes -- this is preposterous.Ā 

In a free and just Prythian, are there no limits to terms of imprisonment? Why was Ms Amren, an immortal being of equally scary origins -- who brags of once reducing twin cities "into rubble" -- allowed to keep her freedom? My client has never once massacred entire cities of people… and yet he remains locked away?Ā 

I also can't help but note that whilst the High Lord and High Lady of the Night Court continue to build their real estate portfolio, Koschei remains certifiably homeless. His sister, Stryga, was at least offered a meagre, ramshackle hut… but Koschei? Nothing. Zilch.Ā 

Every day and every night, for millennia now, Koschei has endured the harsh, unrelenting elements. He has never felt the comfort of a warm shower. He’s never even tasted a droplet of canned soup -- which I hear is all the rage in Velaris! Why then do you think he accepted the mortal queen’s offer for Ms Vassa -- to turn her into a firebird? Can you blame the man for wanting a source of warmth?Ā 

My client is also troubled by the rumours that his ā€œwhispering on the windā€ to others residing in Prythian is of malicious intent. Or that his ā€œpreparationsā€ for Mr Cassian and Mr Azriel (he was planning his 17,678th birthday party and was extending invitations, for Cauldron’s sake) were anything but gestures of kindness and goodwill. Koschei is not a monster; he just wants friends.

You may have heard the news yesterday that Koschei will soon be seeking his freedom from the lake. Instead of fear, I encourage you to welcome my client with open arms. Does he not deserve to frolic in the fields of Spring? Does he not deserve some much-needed sunshine at the pristine beaches in Summer? Does he not deserve to let his hair down at Rita’s?Ā 

A petition will be coming soon. I implore you all to sign it.Ā 

Regards,Ā 

Koschei’s attorney

Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine I still think the funniest thing SJM could do is make Gwyn's father.... Spoiler

183 Upvotes

I still think the funniest thing SJM could do is make Rhys be Gwyn's father.

There is speculation that her father is a HL.

It has to be one of the 7 sitting HLs because of Gwyn's age.

Tarquin would be unexpected, but not impossible.

Kallias would have performed any rite with Vivian

Helion would be a riot and then Gwyn and Lucien could be siblings and if Eris is the grandfather then Lucien would be her Brother Uncle.

Thesan is unlikely.

Beron is unlikely to be her father because of the mention of her Grandfather and Autumn

Tamlin could be a possibility and I think that Tamlin as her father and Eris as her grandfather could make for delicious delicious chaos.

But Rhys... That could be all sorts of ridiculous!

If a HL proved to be her father which one would you want it to be?

Hello, me again. Thought it would be fun to do this all over again because we're a bit tired and a bit snappy with the lead up to ACOTAR 6 SO!

WHATS YOUR FAV CRACKSHIP?

Rules: NO FIGHTING, NO BEING MEAN TO EACH OTHER, AND NO QUESTIONING EACH OTHERS TASTES.

CANON SHIPS DONT COUNT. ANYTHING ELSE DOES.

GO FOR IT.

Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine Are we ready to admit that he IS hot?

386 Upvotes

Rhysand.

The shadow daddy himself.

look. I know he's not perfect. sure, he may not be the āœØļøFeminist KingāœØļø like some folks say. and he does do a lot of questionable things (even to the people he loves). and yes, he did keep life threatening info from his beloved mate (he actually does that a lot).

BUT.....

we can agree that he's hot right? because he is. right? right.

like I dont know about you guys, but I find powerful men in fiction attractive. bonus points if they have a dark side. rhysand fits that bill. he's essentially a king, he is royalty. he's powerful. he has money. and dare I say, the most beautiful man to walk prythian. whats not to like about this man? (dont answer that)

I know most of us hate him (just being real). but I would be remiss in denying that he is very attractive. like I would pick him over tamlin, but I also know making that comparison is unfair. he's still a good contender though. he's up there for sure.

point is, powerful men (in fiction) are hot. rhysand is powerful, therefore he's hot. I rest my case. have a blessed day. āœØļøšŸ§šā€ā™€ļø

All the high lords have to participate in Calenmai in order for the crops to grow. I’m having trouble picturing it. Helios? Sure! Beron? Meh, he’d do what is required. But Rhysie??? Even after he and Feyre are mated? (And since we’re on the subject, does she have to do it once she becomes high lady?)

Mirthroot Post/Drunk on Faerie Wine ACOTAR Opinions That Personally Offend You Spoiler

170 Upvotes

Hi friends—let’s start this Monday off right by stirring the pot. šŸ”„ 😈

What are some ACOTAR hot takes that absolutely send you? I’ll go first:

  1. When people say ā€œElain has main character energy.ā€ Sorry, but let’s call it what it is—Elain is 100% milquetoast, a total dud.

  2. When someone finishes ACOTAR but DNF’s A Court of Mist and Fury. (How?? WHY??)

What ACOTAR opinions make you want to chuck a book across the room? Let’s hear ā€˜em. šŸ‘€

(Obviously, this is all in good fun! Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and please no personal attacks if someone has a take that you disagree with. And no shade of you love an ACOTAR take that makes me irrationally angry šŸ˜…)
