Elriel - Blog Posts

The Elriel vs. Gwynriel vs. (insert non canon/ non confirmed ship here) debate has my head SPINNING.

I am WEAK

and FORGETFUL

and I have not read the books in a little over a year.

I have trouble remembering major canon events! Let alone every side relationship in perfect detail!

So when I see pro ship quotes from the books taken out of context, I’m like “ yeah, that makes sense”

I’m switching alliances every five minutes 😭

I don’t care who the next ACOTAR romantic pairing is I swear if I don’t get a WELL THOUGHT OUT AND COOKED MATING MEAL….

I’m gonna freaking lose it

Enough of this elriel vs. gwynriel debate. There is only one person Azriel should end up with…

and it’s me

I’m currently watching the Swifties use their master deciphering skills to try and determine if SJM’s insta post is more elriel or elucien coded

(Guilty as sin) what kind of vibe is it giving???

My favorite thing is when the ACOTAR/TOG/CC men look at their mates for the first time and describe them as the most beautiful woman they’ve ever seen

Seeing a lot of Azriel ship discourse on here lately

So now it’s time for a poll

When I first joined Acotar tumblr I followed ALL of the tags because I wanted the most content. Now my feed is a war of ships and pros and antis.

I’m here for the drama tho.

Lucien Fancast

Booboo Stewart- Lucien

Age- 29

Hear me out... he'd dye his hair. Or wear a wig. He may not look like the fanarts that people are used to, but Booboo Stewart would fit Lucien's character really well. His charisma is off the charts. Have you seen his smile? From playing Seth in Twilight to Jay in Descendants, he often becomes a fan favorite. This would be no different. He would be exceptional playing our clever Spring Court Emissary.

Reminder:

Almost all the characters in the ACOTAR series are supposed to look like they are in their early to late 20s. They are immortal fae and I decided on this fancast because the actors need to look like they are in this age range for a number of years. I know this wouldn’t be everyone choice and a lot of people would love to see actors like Henry Cavill or Jason Momoa (trust me, I would too), but I wanted to keep the fancast more realistic towards the books.

(I don’t know why I’m saying all this like it’s a real casting, this is a fancasting. But istg if they make Jacob Elordi or Timothee Chalamet Rhysand, I’ll riot)

Elain Fancast

Madelyn Cline- Elain

Age- 25

In the fashion of being the middle child, Elain is super underrated. Madelyn Cline has the talent to bring her justice in the upcoming ACOTAR tv show. Elain has such a sweet and kind disposition that I can only imagine Madelyn Cline portraying her. Although most fanarts show the Archeron sisters looking exactly alike, in the book Nesta (Elizabeth Gilles) and Feyre (Danielle Rose Russell) often say that the both of them look most like their problematic mother. So it would make sense for Elain to look less like the two of them.

Feyre Fancast

Danielle Rose Russell- Feyre

Age- 23

When I think of the casting for the upcoming ACOTAR TV show, Danielle Rose Russell is the first to come to mind. Danielle is perfect for the role of Feyre. She carried the Legacies TV show with her main character energy and has proven she has the attitude and talent to play our favorite huntress. Just picture her hunting in the woods, tracking down the Suriel, or fighting UTM.

If you send nasty anon messages to people who support a different ship than you...

Please know that I absolutely hate your guts. I don't care if you support the same ships as me or not; don't fucking do that shit. It's juvenile and beyond stupid. All you do is make yourself look like Mor a clown.

the acotar fandom is so weird. i love feyre and nesta. i love gwyn and elain. why are y’all determined to put women against each other? it reeks of misogyny.

bro ship wars aside, if azriel doesn’t end up w gwyn (which he might not bc let’s be real no one knows who’s endgame) i want them to be friends so badly. like their friendship could be unmatched. same thing if he doesn’t end up w elain. i just like all the characters and i think their relationships, platonic or romantic, are important.

This whole Elriel and Gwynriel debate has turned into a very messy, toxic, and violent capture-the-flag event with every single word SJM has ever written, and it's both very upsetting and exhausting. The complete lack of respect for other people in the fandom just because they believe different theories or ship a different couple or whatever is ridiculous. Please just chill. If you find yourself mad enough to send unwarranted hate to a random artist because they made fun fanart of a couple you don't ship, maybe you need a glass of water and some food. Redirect that energy into taking care of yourself instead of tearing down others for no reason.

Shein has been stealing ACOTAR fanart

It has come to my attention that Shein has been stealing art made by ACOTAR, Fourth Wing, Throne of Glass and possibly other fandoms and selling them as sticker bundles.

Some examples: Throne of Glass, ACOTAR, ACOTAR again, Fourth Wing

Those are not the only sticker bundles in each fandom. From what I've seen, they have also been selling bookmarks, pins and tote-bags as well. I suspect that their AI program is scrapping sites like redbubble or etsy.

Some of the artists I can recognize among others are: @/itsirene on ig, @/frostbite.studios on ig, @silketara, @cccrystalclear, @taratjah, @charliebowater and @luardraws

Please reblog this for exposure and if you are an artist, make sure you check if your art has been stolen as I've not been able to find everyone. Copyright infringement is a serious crime and something should be done about this.

For @elainweekofficial Day 5: Blooming Bud, because I love my cottagecore girlie ❤️
