Letters I write to myself from fictional characters part 2, Rowan Whitethorn Galythenius, TOG

Ash, 

       I don’t know why Aelin wanted me to write you this letter since you’ll be home soon, but here we go. 

       I love you. So much. In a brotherly way, of course, or Aelin would kill both of us. Just know i would destroy the word for you. And I would do it over and over again to get you back if you were taken from us. Whether that be death or just stolen away. I would destroy the world over and over again to get you back, no matter how long it took. We all would. Aelin, Aedion, Lysandra, the Cadre, the witches. Even Dorian and Chaol. We’d do anything to get you back if you were taken. Anything at all. 

      But you wont be taken, so you don't need to worry about that. We wont let you be taken, none of us will. 

       We miss you here in Terrasan. When you get back from your mission, Aelin wants to make chocolate cake and go for a picnic in the mountains with you. Aedion says you should rest, and frankly I agree, but you know how Aelin gets when she wants something, especially when it comes to you and chocolate cake. Let’s just hope you two don’t destroy the kitchen like you did last time

          I apologize that I couldn't send someone with you, but I know and acknowledge , that you like working, and work better by yourself. So yes, Aelin and Lysandra may have been mad at me for a bit, but i let you go alone. Just...please be safe on your mission. We’re all waiting for you to come back. 

                         -Rowan Whitethorn Galythenius 

                                   King of Terresan

Shamelessly reposting this bc it’s too beautiful not to. This literally took my breath away.

Magical Manbuns

Picturing Rowan with a man bun. Is that wrong? Then I don't want to be right.

I swear y’all acotar haters who compare sjm (who writes masterpieces) to Colleen fucking Hoover only read the first book. (Which is still a problem because the first book is still >>>>> anything coho can ever conjure in that tiny brain of hers)

And throne of glass!! like ok if y’all hate acotar cuz Rhys fucked in a war tent Rowaelin fucked on a beach I hope thats more acceptable for you. (no but fr tog is also a literal masterpiece. The ending of EoS???? KoA????? hello?)

celaena and chaol (taylor's version)

Chaol: never learned to read your mind Celaena: never learned to read my mind Chaol: I couldn't turn things around Celaena: you never turned things around Chaol: you never gave a warning sign Celeana: I gave so many signs. You didn't even see the signs.

I don't think sjm did any other interviews from 2021~ now (or if she did it's not public so I can't see it) and since I've only first read acotar during January of last year and only acosf and hosab came out when I was actually a part of the fandom, I've never actually seen any of sjm's interview until this recent one with Katherine Webber and I have to say.. the way sjm haters villainize sjm one would think sjm is some kind of heartless psycho that 1. purposely created Danika Fendyr solely to be used as a plot device because she's dead 2. purposely designed Rhys and Feyre to be selfish rulers who will be the doom of Velaris 3. purposely made Feyre such an irresponsible mother and ruler 4. purposely made Rhysand such a manipulative and irresponsible ruler 5. purposely made nesta such a evil and uncaring person not even bothering to redeem her (you all, nesta's human, she makes mistakes and it's not always okay but that doesn't make her an evil person who doesnt deserve a second.. well fine maybe third... chance) 6. purposely killed the thirteen (this one's a joke you people who take everything so literally) 7. purposely made Rhys and Feyre seem so heartless they could have sex when people are dying (bro it's supposed to be romantic not a personal attack on the dying people 🙄 it's supposed to symbolize how "people in find hope in others [in sex, yes] during the hardest times" 8. purposely created the IC as a toxic enviorment and toxic family who "keeps things from each other" and "don't trust and open up to each other" (eg: Mor not being willing to admit she's gay, telling feyre her preganacy can kill her WELL IF YOU WERE IN THEIR POSITION YOU PROBABLY WOULD DO THAT SAME THING) 9. purposely made Bryce curvy without "proper representation" because she's fatphobic 10. purposely didn't give any of her characters god forbid THERPY and had them magically get better (you all fun fact no one believes in therapy where i live and im suicidal but obviously im not dead yet and probably also less messed up than HALF of you sjm haters so one doesnt require therapy to get over trauma or to just... not be dead✨) 10. purposely gave Rhys and Feyre power (and from one of the acotar hate chain I quote) "so they can fucking waste it" 11. purposely had Nyx conceived out of fear (not true but I'll humor you all)

I could go on and on and on but i think this sufficient don't you? You all, acotar and tog and cc are books. in a world designed by a single human. characters have flaws, it doesnt mean they're horrible people, it doesnt mean the AUTHOR is a horrible person or transphobic or fatphobic or anti lgbtq.

also note that before every single point there is a "purposely" as in the things these characters do maybe arent totally correct, but it isn't done because of "problematic intensions"

I don't think SJM is problematic. she's human like any of us, and that means she has her own viewpoints or writes about things she finds acceptable but you don't. that doesnt make her a bad person or a problematic author.

Friendly Reminder

Bryce vacuumed Micah up.

"She wasn't fated for anything. Not anymore. "

-Throne of Glass, Chapter 6

it hits differently when you're rereading

bye i'll just go sob in a corner y'all

Friendly reminder:

we all loved Tamlin at some point.

Rereading SJM books

And that's foreshadowing.

And so is that.

And that.

And that.

And that.

And that.

AnD ThAt.

AND THAT.

When someone asks who my bf is

Well, that kind of depends... some times it's Rhysand, other times it's Rowan. And then every other Monday is one of the Herondales. Oh no, Lightwoods are on Mondays, Herondales are on Tuesdays. And occasionally, Aleksander Morozova, he usually goes by The Darkling. Either Daniel Altan Wing or Four once a month... and Maxon too if he has the time.

ToG spoiler alert

I do not accept the fact that Aelin lost her powers forging the lock and banishing the Gods. As far as I’m concerned, Aelin still has her full powers. Humph. 

I am a part of so many fandoms but sjm fandom has gotta be the most toxic one and yes I still love it here.

I just want to make one thing clear its like Loki and Thor their age is 1000+ but in asgardian that is considered like mid twenties and so like that same goes for fae years. Rhysand, rowan , Cassian being hundred of years old doesn't mean they are old and fucking pedophiles they are just as young as Feyre or Nesta or aelin is in human years.

people be like all the fae males portray toxic musculanity with ripped muscles and stuff. well did you expect hundreds of years old warriors who are training everyday since they were born to have belly fat.

me: i hate cliches.

author: and that night in each others arms neither one of them had nightmares

me: oh my god they didnt have nightmares in each others arms *visible sobs*

fuck you my child is completely fine...

your child want a fae male to bite them.

aelin(prob at some point) to rowan: i know you love me coz i love me too.

i love how we all collectively decided it was okay to love faerie porn.

i really dont get the fact why a woman cant be a feminist and be head over heels in love and sometimes do things only motivated by that love and rely on that love during difficult times.

i miss my lil innocent azriel

i just know lorcan  have a closet full of shirts for elide to cut up for her during that time the month

MANON: i get something in my gut whenever i look at dorian.

ELIDE: yeah those are butterflies. i get them when i look at lorcan.

MANON(touching her stomach): i didnt know we had butterflies living in our guts.STRANGE.

Literally aelin

And by $5, I mean for free.

I just realised that aelin will see Dorian and chaol die of old age.

HOW DO I GO BACK!!

sjm really making me go to therapy just so that i can cry my eyes about the thirteen and the yielding and how manon is all alone now in the wastes as dorian is Adarlan.

Friendly Reminder

chaol really married yrene without dorian being present there.
