The posts where people complain the Az’s thoughts about Elain were disappointing and gave them the ick do not make any sense. Here is why:

- Feysand and Nessian were both sexual before they became official: Don’t you remember Rhys “distracting” Feyre in the cabin? Cassian and Nesta being “just sex nothing more” for weeks before any feelings were acknowledged? Why is Azriel being horny for Elain bad like we have never seen this before? Did you expect him to go on a full-on love confession right there and then?

- The Bonus Chapter doesn’t delete everything else that happened between Elain and Azriel. It’s there to COMPLETE their dynamic, to completely clarify that the affection and and protectiveness Az exhibits towards Elain is not brotherly in nature. He sees Elain differently that he does Nesta and Feyre. The way people are acting, its like Elriel’s only interaction was the BC when the books are filled with many “cute” and “innocent” interactions.

- “It’s just lust” : It is not just lust. Azriel cares deeply for Elain and it has been shown by SJM since ACOWAR. Trying to gaslight us that he only wants to fuck her like we didn’t also read the books is crazy. Even in the BC where they will dissect every sentence and word and interpret them to their convenience, they conveniently skip over him mentioning how much he hated the scent of her mating bond, how he kept her headache powder unused by his bed just to stare at it, how he felt it was SACRILEGE to touch her after all the unmentionable stuff his hands have done. Those are not the thoughts of someone only looking to fuck.

- “He feels entitled to her” : I honestly do not know how they got that after his conversation with Rhys. It seemed to me that he yearned for her so much and was so angry at the universe for not making him her mate. It’s even more cruel when you think her sisters are mated to his brothers, and yet he doesn’t get to have her despite wanting her so much. He even mentions her mate and how she doesn’t care about him. Highlighting how it is HER choice. The situation is fucked : he wants her, he knows she wants him as well, her sisters are with his brothers and yet she is mated to another. I would be angry too.

Thats its. Thats the rant.

Sorry if this is a weird request, but can anyone suggest books where the fmc loses consciousness due to exhaustion, illness or fear..I have this weird itch for this kind of scene, maybe from watching too many kdramas lol. Thank you in advance.

Just had a layover at Abu Dhabi airport, everything went down normally. I was worried due to the current Middle East situation but it was no different than all my other layovers there. However, if you’re booking a flight with a 45 mins/ 1 hour layover in AUH, I would advise paying extra for category 1 or 2 seats,as it takes forever to just exit the plane if your seat is in the back. The airport is huge and we had to sprint trying to get to our gate while we were hearing final call. I don’t know if they would have waited for us if we took our time and didnt wreck our legs in the process but we didn’t want to take the risk.
