antis behaviors since chd

Ever since the CHD interview, bryceriel hatred has gone up to the point where the only space I feel I can talk about bryceriel is on this subreddit. Socials have become a hating ground. I used to use tiktok as my primary bryceriel source since I rarely used reddit, but now you look up bryceriel and at the top is mostly bryceriel hate posts.

The thing I have noticed is a lot of antis justify their behavior claiming that we "are trying to make bryceriel" canon. However, it is clear to me that the majority of us know that SJM does not let fan theories affect her writing. We literally just quote existing canon evidence straight from the books. It is a wild assumption on their end, and they say it as if it makes their hatred look better.

These are just some random thoughts I have noticed from the last few months. I am super thankful for all the bryceriel besties for making this space such a wonderful place to be.

acomaf house of wind

Only Mor and Rhysand and winnow directly into the house of wind... technically, Bryce opens a portal into it, so I think that wouldn't count as winnowing? (Thoughts?)

And then, only those I wish and you wish may enter... but Nesta is using the house of wind at that time, so would it have changed to who she wished? Or, does that still lie with Rhys? If so, then it is very interesting that Rhys would be ok with Bryce in a house he keeps for family...

Any thoughts would be helpful, trying to figure this all out.

I am rereading ACOTAR, and when Feyre first meets Rhysand she lies to him. And he immediately detects it. It made me think of Azriel detecting Bryce's lies and it flying over Rhysand's head.

We also know Feyre lies to him about her name later, giving the name Claire Beddor which he turns over to Amarantha. He knew she was lying about her name then as well, to the point where he thought it was safe to hand over the fake name.

In an earlier post, someone here theorized that it could have been Azriel and not Rhysand's shadows that came violently against the House of Wind when Bryce dropped off her parents. I went to reread the bonus chapter and this is the description:

Ember understood the words only because in those initial moments after the dark storm had ruptured the windows and burst into the room, she and Randall had been questioned. Since it was clear they didn’t understand the language, the male who had appeared from the heart of the star-flecked storm had given them both a silver bean and mimed eating it.

Star flecked storm could refer to Rhysand's association with stars in his eyes (maybe shadows too). However, if it is Azriel, what if Bryce's starlight effected his shadows too like his shadows effected her starlight?

Not great at theorizing but I found it interesting. Does anyone have any thoughts? Are Rhysand's or Azriel's shadows ever described to have stars?
