SJM Interview TRANSCRIPT

"Elain doesn’t owe Lucien a thing …"

May I say this much: if Elain wants Lucien to stop visiting, then she does owe him the decency to politely tell him so.

In my humble opinion she owes him a healthy amount of kindness. Not because he’s her mate, but because he’s a living being with emotions. Explain to me how it is justified for Elain to be nice to anyone but Lucien? It’s not, not anymore. I’m not saying Lucien is entitled to sweet words, endless conversations, let alone dates. She owes him one sentence.

One "I appreciate your presents, but I need space and time." One "I don’t want you to ever visit again." Whatever.

Elain is an adult in her mid-twenties, I trust her to speak for herself, as she has before. It’s not too much to ask. It’s not on Lucien to read her like a book. He’s not intrusively going against her will. Elain has never voiced how Lucien should or shouldn’t act because she has no solution either.

Don’t you find it sus how Elain, is an angel to anyone but the guy whose middle name is gentleman? The guy who gives her space, brings her presents and doesn’t expect anything? This doesn’t look like a girl who doesn’t care to me, it looks like a girl who’s overwhelmed.

To be clear, I’m never saying it’s not valid for Elain to feel uncomfortable or pressured. Her emotions explain but they don’t justify her ignoring Lucien. I’m never judging Elain for anything. However, there comes point where it’s no longer excusable to push things, people, along. And that point is this close 🤏 to be reached by Elain.

Nobody Beats Jace Herondale

Percy: My mother was made Hades’s Prisoner

Jace: Mine killed herself after my fathers’s death, I never knew her and I was dug out of her corpse.

Percy: Well, we have the Mist

Jace: We have glamour AND runes

Percy: My eyes is a beautiful sea green

Jace: Mine is gold and I’m naturally blond.

Percy: I almost got killed a million times in my series and I came out of Tartarus.

Jace: Big deal, I actually died and the Angel Raziel raised me back from the dead.

Percy: I have a movie.

Jace: So do I, and I have a Neflix series though the actor is not as stunningly attractive as I am.

Percy: I was betrayed by my so called good friend, Luke.

Jace: My adoptive father and brother are the villan of my series and I not only thought Valentine was my real father but I was also connected to Sebastian.

Percy: Ugh....I give up, I challenge you to a sword fight.

*Jace lights up a Seraph Blade and twists it expertly, flipping his hair

Percy: Umm, nevermind.

Friendly Reminder:

We all loved Maven at some point

honestly at this point i no longer use hashtags that get my posts seen yk. like this is my personal rant space, the point is not the amount of people that sees my post. it's for me.

@taylorswift @taylornation

Hi! I'm kind of new to the fandom and I'm looking for good Feysand fics. Do u have any reccomendations for fics/authors? 🍓

Welcome to the fandom! I've read so many amazing fics by so many amazing people over the years, so this list will by no means be comprehensive, but I'll do my best and it'll definitely get long anyway! I hope I didn't bother anyone by tagging them because I'm not mutuals with everyone on this list.

@illyriantremors on both Ao3 and Tumblr has some of the best fics I've ever read. Unfortunately, they left Tumblr and the fandom several years ago, but they have some serious gems. Some of my favorites include a nearly-complete rewrite of ACOMAF from Rhys's POV, and my personal favorite feysand fic of all time, Beneath the Stars, (And its sequel, Between the Stars!) which is a fantastic modern AU.

@quakeriders on both ao3 and Tumblr has so many good one-shots and some multichapters that live in my head rent-free! One of my faves is her demon!rhys AU; and if i get burned, at least we were electrified.

@writtenonreceipts on both ao3 and tumblr has a lot of great fics with really interesting premises. If you're into throne of glass they also write quite a bit for that fandom!

@themoonthestarsthesuriel on both tumblr and ao3 has so much amazing writing! Their fic The Bet was such a wonderful ride.

@mmvalentine on both ao3 and tumblr writes fantastic feysand AUs. I'm still working my way through a lot of their writing, but their tattoo artist au The Bargain is terrific.

@the-lonelybarricade/TheLonelyBarricade on Ao3 has so much amazing writing for a variety of ships! I recently devoured her A Court of Faded Dreams, which is a really unique concept involving Feyre being sent back in time to the beginning of ACOTAR.

@bookofmirth/ABookandACoffee on Ao3 is one of my favorite sources for levelheaded and sensible opinions in this mess of a fandom, and she is also a talented writer! Her fic Turning A Page is so well written, and she has quite a few oneshots for a variety of ships including Feysand.

@arrowmusings on both ao3 and tumblr has a lot of great content that will absolutely destroy you in the best way possible I promise.

@live-the-fangirl-life has so many wonderful feysand fics, as well as a lot of throne of glass writing if you're in that fandom.

@thesurielships has a ton of feysand fics that I adore! If you're a swiftie she has an evermore songfic collection.

Another writer who left the fandom and is also now inactive (to the best of my knowledge) is @sarahviehmann / sv_you_know_who_I_am on Ao3. Before ACOWAR came out they wrote their own version called A Court of War and Starlight that I personally haven't read, but it was immensely popular around the time. Their modern AU My Fair Warrior is really well done as well.

Since you're familiar with my blog, I'm guessing you've already checked out my writing if any of it interested you, but I'm WordsAndWishes on Ao3.

I also went down by bookmarks list on Ao3 and picked out a few of my favorite fics.

Dear Darling - penpal AU!

Going for Gold - Olympic AU - this one does focus more on Nessian but there is plenty of feysand goodness, also a lot of great sisterly relationships.

It's Nice to Have a Friend - Incomplete but a gem! A Modern AU

The Castle of Dreams - Feyre ends up as a tutor for Rhys's sister who just so happens to be a princess.

Don't Look Back - a hs AU that is so much fun and an absolute ride!

What Happens Under the Stars - feysand finds healing together in a modern au. Feyre and Rhys and their journey are written in a very unique way that I love.

If You Hold Me Close - fake dating at an elucien wedding!

Nox Industries - Rhys is a CEO and Feyre applies for a job at his company.

I just know I'm forgetting a ton of people but I hope this is a good starting place!

wait chloe wasn't joking about "father, i crave violence" line hahhahha
