But wasn’t that what every girl dreamed? That she’d wake and find herself a princess? Or blessed with magical powers and a grand destiny? Maybe there were people who lived those lives. Maybe this girl was one of them. But what about the rest of us? What about the nobodies and the nothings, the invisible girls? We learn to hold our heads as if we wear crowns. We learn to wring magic from the ordinary. That was how you survived when you weren’t chosen, when there was no royal blood in your veins. When the world owed you nothing, you demanded something of it anyway.

“Above me is the same silvery moon that shines down on you. Looking at it makes me recall the glint of your blade pressed against my throat and other romantic moments.”
~Cardan's letters to Jude
“To you, I offer honey wine and the hospitality of my table. But to traitors and oath breakers, I offer my queen’s hospitality instead. The hospitality of knives."
I CAN'T---- THE POWER JUDE HOLDS.
“You could have been a ballerina,” Mme. Padva remarks to Celia. “You are quite good on your feet.”
“I am good off my feet as well,” Celia says.

Thinking about how "No one is ever the villain of their own story" and "We are all someone's monster" are opposites but the same.
The acotar fandom is so toxic like there's ignorance of characters' trauma, stupid excuses for characters' actions, so much sexism, so much slut shaming, domesticating literally every female charcter, MiSoGynY, promoting toxic masculinity, glorifying and sexualizing EvErYtHiNg etc.
I'm just happy with Aelin, Dorian, Manon, Elide, Yrene, Chaol, Abraxos, Nesryn, Fenrys, Lysandra and Rowan birdy. Like look at them. They're adorable.
Okay so before I start pretending that the finale doesn't exist,, let me jut say that the last scene was Loki cried because of Sylvie's betrayal,, AND THEN RAN WITH SOME HOPE LEFT IN HIS HEART BECAUSE AT LEAST HE HAD A FRIEND IN MOBIUS,,,, BUT THEN HE LOST HIM TOO??? WHA-
I was using Loki as my coping mechanism NOW IT'S GIVEN ME MORE REASONS TO CRY-
I think the way ruin and rising ends is really beautiful. Just hear me out lmao-
"They had an ordinary life, full of ordinary things—if love can ever be called that." is such a gentle, peaceful ending. Yes, alina is a very strong character who should've gotten a life filled with more adventures. But in the end, she got to build something that meant the world to her. She got a quiet life after all the fighting and war was over. She deserved it. It's a realistic ending, because sometimes characters choose to rest and be happy and that's okay :).
DARKLINA RIGHTS THOUGH SMH
You've heard of kanej death trope but what about WESPER DEATH TROPE- Wylan dies BEFORE JESPER because he's not grisha,, but that would still be a peaceful death-
But what if he dies in a heist that he didn't wanna go on, but he went for Jesper, and got shot. There's blood everywhere and even Kaz is beginning to panic. Jesper keeps trying to use his powers to get the bullet out but he's not skilled enough to. So Wylan dies in his arms, Inej cries and prays and wishes Nina were there to save him, Kaz blinks back tears and thinks "I never thought I'd have to bury one of my own". Jesper blames himself forever and distances himself from kaz. The crows fall apart.
Many years later Kanej have a kid and name him wylan.
SOMEONE PUT THIS INTO BETTER WORDS-
