Never Forget Lucien Vanserra Brought A Whole Ass Army From Another Continent Where He Had 0 Ties All

Nesta being treated like a feral, uncontrollable thing when:

a) Azriel attacks Eris at the high lord meeting and tortures people for a living

b) Feyre attacks Beron and - inadvertently - the lady of autumn at the meeting

c) Cassian is banned from a whole court and slaughtered a whole village when he was angry

d) Rhys worked with a tyrant for 50 years

e) Mor and Amren had a fight that destroyed a mountain

okay but imagine its a normal day on coruscant but similar to real life there is a paparazzi and someone happens to get pictures of anakin and padme and the holonet does a backflip

suddenly EVERYONE is talking about anakin and padme, padme and anakin, jedi and senator... and the jedi council is completely uprooted from the inside out. What are they supposed to do? they have to kick anakin out

but then the holonet supporters start to... actually like anakin and padme. it is fanpage after fanpage and positive tweet after another. its an insane chain of people stanning these two coruscant kids because they are now the cutest couple of the holonet.

AND THEN the jedi council comes out with a statement that basically says, "yeah we might kick anakin off the jedi order" and the entire universe RIOTS. protesters outside the temple, advocates take to the streets, speeches are made, etc, etc... its all coming to a head.

AND WHAT MORE? anakin "dramatic" skywalker here is basically bathing in the beauty of this and is over his snit he was in -over the fact that someone snitched (;D)- and now is actively showing up at the rallies and holding up signs that say "at least someone loves me" in bright pink lettering. at one he shows up with a sign that says "if u kick me out i join the separatists bet" accompanied by a poorly drawn image of anakin as a sith- ironic- and he has a jar and people donate 10,000 credits for the hell of it.

well nOW THE COUNCIL IS LIKE UH. They have the biggest coruscant uprising in the history of the galaxy because the stans and fangirls are flocking to support hot jedi anakin skywalker on his quest to be better than the jedi council.

well the council leads a vote, with mace leading the "kick him out" side- he wants to see if anakin actually goes dark side- and obi-wan leads the "keep him in" side. and by one vote, obi-wan swings the election and anakin is allowed to stay.

THE PEOPLE CELEBRATE. everyone basically got what they wanted in the first place save the select few that wanted to see anakin go to the separatists- because honestly, its been long enough of a war, right?- and anakin's first thing he does is marches the 501st out of the jedi temple in a parade with a sign that says "IM GOD NOW" because seriously, he has everyone on coruscant in a chokehold with his influence.

oh, and the "paparrazi" that took the photo? it was obi-wan.

I'm normally a big bitch about anachronisms but I'm willing to handwave them for School Spirits bc decades and decades is sure to make your memory murky and mushy. Wally misses Debbie Gibson despite her first album coming out three years after he died? He heard it after he was already trapped. Emilio showed Charley Crash Into Me in 1994 even though the song released in 1996? No he didn't, Charley doesn't remember what song it really was and he's substituted one he's heard Emilio listening to since. Quinn was a huge Veronica Mars fan in 2004 even though the show would have only aired a handful of episodes when she died? It's one of the few things she remembers about herself before the mind draining numbness of being stuck in a loop and she's latched onto it as part of her anyway.

Like I am SO willing to make shit up about the things they say that aren't right in the timeline if it makes it sadder. Love it.

Actual friendly reminders:

Gwyn was the first person to bring up the Valkyries. Without her knowledge, the Valkyries wouldn’t have re-emerged.

It was thanks to her friendship bracelets (blessed by the Mother) that Nesta, Emerie and her found each other in the Blood Rite and won.

It was thanks to her research on the ribbon that they were able to become Valkyries officially. In fact, Gwyn was the first to cut it thus becoming the first Valkyrie of the new generation.

Gwyn’s impact in ACOSF is bigger than people give her credit for. She’s not an irrelevant character at all.

i need help understanding mor and the dynamic between cassian and azriel.

TLDR; i dont get why this dynamic is so important! for mor, its two issues here and they aren’t connected. mor can reject az and keep her true sexuality a secret so why is she so insistent on being shitty to az? azriel getting rejected isn’t going to break his entire heart forever; az is a big boy he will be ok. god i hate this dynamic so much.

ok so this girl doesn’t have the courage to tell azriel that she doesn’t like him that way (or ever).

but its been 500 years of pining; like ?? i think he knows his heart has been broken?? hes a spy master; his entire profession is him seeking secrets and i would even assume knowing how to read people and such. i feel like after 500 years, he can pretty much confirm shes not interested in him. and then using cassian whenever theyre together should also signify something? are we banking on azriel to be a Head Empty dumbo man who doesn’t have an ounce of self awareness and emotional intelligence here?? mor constantly flirts w cassian as a joke. mor needing cassian to be a buffer sounds like she just wants him as the third wheel but nothing else and thats really shitty thing to do. how can she think she can keep it up?? how can she also assume cassian won’t try to find love?? she doesn’t love az why stop him from finding love???

she straight up only likes females no? she’s already sleeping with other people. thats a known fact. azriel has also slept w other people. they dont sleep together but they do just hang out–like buddies?? they go to ritas, they hang out in the houses at valeris, they do night court jobs together-ish but thats it? that sounds like what friends do. so if she rejects azriel, the worst that seems to happen is that they won’t hang out like they used to.

i flipped through ACOWAR to make sure im not missing anything and this is part of what she says:

“I’m not sure I can give my entire heart to him in that way. And…and I love him enough to want him to find someone who can truly love him like he deserves. And I love myself….I love myself enough to not want to settle until I find that person, too” (ACOWAR, 592)

“I should tell him. I need to tell him. Mother above, after last night, I should. But…It’s gone on for so long. So long. I’m petrified to face him–to tell him he’s spent five hundred years of pining for someone and something that won’t ever exist. The potential fallout…I like things the way they are.”  (ACOWAR, 593)

she says this shit!! two contradictory paragraphs!!! how are you gonna be like let az find love/i want to find love and then backtrack and be like wait i like this dynamic??? what??????? in between those two line she says this:

“It’s stupid, I know. It’s so stupid and cruel that I do this, but…I slept with Helion just to remind Azriel…Gods, I can’t even say it. It sounds even worse saying it.”

“To remind him that you’re not interested.” (ACOWAR, 593)

what is this?? literally what the fuck?? this line right here makes mor sound like such a dick. this is literally cruel; she knows hes got intense feelings for her but she does this still?? is this some kind of power trip she likes???

yes it can be heart breaking to lose a friend but at the same time stringing them along and being so elusive is worse is it not?? yes it will probably hurt az a lot especially if his feelings are super intense but i think they as characters are capable of going past this. it might not be like before, but they will still be supportive of one another.

but also consider this: what would be the consequence of rejecting azriel? will he go on a rampage? will he shut out the IC forever? will he abandon them? is there a darkness to him that makes mor afraid to speak her actual feelings? cuz i feel like at worst it would be a few awkward moments here and there but ultimately it would just be over with and they will be friends again. does she really believe that az would continue to be a hopeless puppy following her around in the hope of her loving him forever or does she think he’ll reject love forever if she rejects him? she hasn’t given him actual romantic love back so he might not be missing much. and even her words about fucken helion just to remind az she’s not interested is treating him shity enough (which also leads me to why does he love mor? did he know her before rhys brought her to the illyrian camp all those years ago when she and cassian did it?) i know she wants to keep liking females a secret, but rejecting az won’t make people automatically assume she isn’t straight.

i can’t help but think literally all of mor’s reasoning for not telling az and keeping the dynamic going is garbage. the stakes aren’t that high! shes being a bad friend and stifling both cassian and azriel! idk how az’s heart isn’t already breaking?? im really mad SJM is trying to play this up as a big thing and making this dynamic seem so important to these characters but for mor, its two issues here and they aren’t connected. mor can reject az and keep her true sexuality a secret. azriel getting rejected isn’t going to break his entire heart forever; az is a big boy he will be ok. god i hate this dynamic so much.

In an interview in 2015 SJM said that Lucien liked to be irritating and I started to imagine him with the brothers, he must irritate them a lot, I can only imagine in that scene that he gave Feyre something to eat and then laughed at her.

Lucien was absolutely the most annoying child EVER to his himbo brothers. Picture it:

Six* brawny brothers who like to fight, fuck, and cause problems on purpose

*More like five and a half, since Eris is smart and has layers and whatnot

ANYWAYS.

Along comes Lucien, who is a tiny little nerd who asks a bunch of questions and who is very clearly Not Like the Others™️ and you get these brothers who are constantly annoyed.

Honestly picture Beron like the Burger King and all of his sons like ginger Gastons who have no tolerance for this child who cites chapters and verses during regular dinner conversation and probably speaks like six languages and who never seems to get sunburned.

dude waxer deserved better. i hope theres a universe where waxer is living on ryloth with that little twileck girl and boil

the mandalorian season 3 episode 4: the foundling has no reason to be as funny as it is 😭😭 like come on

din djarin accidentally makes bo-katan join his weird cult

din djarin saying “next challenger” and then setting down the smallest little 1 foot tall child to fight a child who is at least 4 feet tall AND ALSO PAZ VIZSLA’S KID???

din djarin sassing said 4 foot tall kid

grogu absolutely destroying that kid by backflipping over him multiple times and then winning the training darts thing after literally being taught how to do it 30 seconds beforehand

THAT KID THEN BEING TAKEN BY A FUCKING PTERODACTYL AFTER TALKING SHIT?/!-?-?-!-?? (bad day for ragnar)

grogu’s oversized chestplate 😭😭😭

all the mandalorians’ jetpacks running out of fuel and them grunting and panting as they try to scale the mountain

all of the mandalorians suddenly just getting up and dispersing to eat in private because what else are they supposed to do

THEM BRINGING HOME THE PTERODACTYL’S THREE KIDS AND BOKATAN TELLING THE ARMOURER THAT THEYRE FOUNDLINGS 😭😭😭

the fact that, as you get a new piece of armour, you just have to sit in the armourer’s little lair as she makes your pieces like 🧍🧍

anyways the mandalorian is silly as hell bro 😭😭

I honestly feel like nobody in lotr mentions how fucking weird Legolas is. He stays up pacing the floor and singing to himself in the dead of night. He deadass stares straight into the tree line in the absolute pitch black when no one else can see anything. He yells goodbye to a river he has heard about in songs. He's so strange and not one character mentions it AT ALL. I absolutely love him.
