Shamelessly reposting this bc it’s too beautiful not to. This literally took my breath away.
Main Couples of Throne of Glass
Artist: @giannyfili
Rowan: No one expects an angel to set the world on fire.
Aelin: Aww thanks.
Rowan: What? No, you’re the devil incarnate. I was talking to Dorian.
Rowan, talking to Dorian: Either walk like you’re the king or walk like you don’t care who the king is.
Aelin, from another room: OR QUEEN!
Dorian, nods: Walk like a queen.
Later:
Dorian: *struts down the hall, eating chocolate cake*
I have a type:
Dark haired, intelligent, emotional, psychopaths
Chaol: I keep a picture of all of us in my wallet. Whenever I face difficulties, I take it out and stare at the picture. Dorian and Celeana: Awwww— Chaol: And I tell myself "If I can deal with these idiots, then I can deal with anything." Dorian and Celeana: Oh.
Fenrys: Fuck, marry, kill: me, Rowan, and Dorian.
Aelin: Fuck Dorian, marry Rowan, and kill Lorcan.
Lorcan: I wasn't even on the list.
Chaol: That’s a pretty rock.
Dorian: Manon gave it to me.
Manon: I threw it at you.
Dorian: She’s very sweet.
Aelin: People say I have a unique way of lighting up a room
Chaol: It’s called 'arson' and those people are witnesses
Chaol: You love Celeana! Dorian: No, you love Celeana! Celeana: No, I love Celeana!
Rowan: Just be careful.
Aelin: Always am.
Dorian: I respectfully but firmly disagree.
Aelin:[entering the room]I need you to tell me-
Manon:[lying awkwardly on the bed, flustered and coughing] Huh, what?
Aelin:
Aelin: Is Dorian under the bed?
Under the bed:[muffled]no.
Aelin: There is nothing better than a dog.
Dorian: Two dogs?
Aelin: You are right, I'm an idiot.
“ She moaned into her pillow. "Go away. I feel like dying." "No fair maiden should die alone," he said, putting a hand on hers. "Shall I read to you in your final moments? What story would you like?" She snatched her hand back. "How about the story of the idiotic prince who won't leave the assassin alone?" "Oh! I love that story! It has such a happy ending, too—why, the assassin was really feigning her illness in order to get the prince's attention! Who would have guessed it? Such a clever girl. And the bedroom scene is so lovely—it's worth reading through all of their ceaseless banter!”
- Dorian and Celaena, Throne of Glass
Aelin: So next question, you're in love with Dorian.
Manon: That's not a question.
Aelin: So you agree it's a fact?
Manon: Yes.
Dorian: Sorry, it took me so long to bail you out of jail.
Aelin: That’s okay. In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have used my one phone call to prank call the police.
Dorian: I have a theory
Aelin: really?
Dorian: yes, if I go hug manon right now, she will kill me.
Aelin: let’s prove that theory—
Chaol: NO—
Malina is like Chaolena, in the sense that Mal was also afraid of Alina's powers and could never fully accept them and what they meant. He may have loved the orphan he grew up with, but he could never be with her when she had her powers because he was too afraid of them. And yeah, it turned out fine for him in the end since she lost her powers and all (which I still think is like why would you end the book like that, but that's not what I'm ranting about now), but the powers were a part of her, and as Dorian Havilliard once said, "You cannot pick and choose what parts of her to love."
I relate to Dorian Havilliard because I too love books and Manon Blackbeak
All the grishaverse, riordanverse, shadowhunter chronicles, throne of glass and marvel characters do be kinda fruity to me- anyways happy bisexual visibility day<33
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 this scene in heir of fire where the Valg are in Celaena's head and she's reliving all of her worst memories. She's broken and she's accepting the pain that Sam and Nehemia are giving her because she thinks she deserves it as she failed them. And then she goes to a scene where she sees her parents and Sam and Nehemia and Aelin and they all ask her to get up, but she can't. And one by one they all start calling her a traitor but Aelin keeps sitting beside her, reaching her arm out. I think it signifies really beautifully how everyone ends up hating Celaena for some reason or the other and she accepts their hate even though she loves them. But Aelin always stays with her. She stays even when everyone else's words turn to poison. And that moment when she decides to take Aelin's hand is when Celaena Sardothien dies. Samlaena happy ending besties<3
“Get up,” Chaol whispered. "Celaena,” he breathed, his voice laced with pain—and hope. This was all she had left—his outstretched hand, and the promise of hope, of something better waiting on the other side of that line.
Back when I shipped Chaolena</3
