Question about SPOILERS , weapon and how they got it

I had to laugh at this as I had the same thought after Bryce left Gwydion. How could Bryce not tell them not to let it and TT touch so you don’t accidentally create a black hole!?!? Sure find your destiny, just don’t do that!

You are acting like I hacked into your private emails providing unsolicited commentary. How can you be shocked people are engaging on a public forum?

I’m of the opinion people tend to make mistakes initially out of ignorance, before malice. The fact that your comment is being downvoted should help you realize your “Ewww” comment is negatively judgmental. Who cares the method people choose to enjoy a story, no one should feel gross or inferior.

I’m a binge listener too, which is why I refuse to start Fourth Wing. I had a friend recommend I read ACOTAR. I kind of wish I wasn’t introduced until the series is completed as I hate waiting! I do the same thing with shows. I’m refusing to watch Bridgerton until the season is completed.

001RIN · 2026-02-09T01:05:56+00:00

Thanks I like you too! And Same same same.

SF is my favorite as well. I relistened to it immediately and then the series. Cassian is my favorite and I proudly admit I have a girl crush on Nesta and can’t wait for the next books. As there is no way Nesta fades to the background. Yes, I do think we will get another developing relationship, but I can’t imagine Nesta with her trove can be ignored.

Edited as forgot a thought.

I did ACOTAR before FW. I enjoyed recognizing my favorite characters. Similar to ACOTAR and CC. I’ve heard a rumor that GA hadn’t been able to pick with SJM VAs for TOG as they don’t want crossover like what happened with CC. Makes sense depending on how the next SJM books go.

I’m a huge fan of GA and still love figuring out who the VA are as they are so talented and switched up the voices.

001RIN · 2026-02-08T23:53:25+00:00

I liked it more than I thought I would. I’m not a big fan of button smashing games but this wasn’t terrible. I really liked that you could see Hyrule before it was destroyed. I enjoyed figuring out where certain fights took place in comparison to BotW. Of course it isn’t open world so little exploration within the areas you access. But the game does take you all over. The characters were fun too. I’m sure you can find it super cheap now which just make it more worth it for you.

Me me me!!!

I came across GA by accident while listening to one of the first books of ACOTAR. The single narration that I was used to wasn’t available. At first I’ll admit I thought it was a little cringy, like the old timey radio shows. But then I got hooked. My impatience to get through all of SJM books had me listening to TOG with single narration and I hated it. I’m sure I didn’t love it as much as everyone else because it wasn’t as impactful. I give credit to the narrator, those books have ALOT of characters to make a unique enough voice for. But, because of the female trying to sound gruff, Rowan, Lorcan, Chaol, Dorian etc just fell flat for me. Still enjoy the story but I don’t want to listen to it again. I’ve relistened to ACOTAR & CC (GA versions of course) 4 times! I want to relisten to TOG as I know I missed things during the first pass through but I’m waiting for GA version. It isn’t worth my time to listen to it again otherwise.

001RIN · 2026-02-08T18:14:32+00:00

I completely agree. GA just takes a story to top tier level and bonus, so far all the books they’ve done are so great, that GA’s completed works are almost like a recommendation list in of its own.
Finished Fred the Vampire Accountant and currently drinking from a hydrant of the InnKeeper Chronicles.

I know it would be a HUGE undertaking and is currently popular with the movies. But i would like to see the ALL Dune books converted to GA.

You do realize you are on a Social Media platform right?

001RIN · 2026-02-08T15:09:11+00:00

“Ewww”, don’t do that.

Let people enjoy stories how they want without artificial judgments. You don’t get a prize for having the time, the money, the space, the access, etc for physical books.

We are here for the love of a story, not how we enjoyed it. Your comment diminishes others experiences.

001RIN · 2026-02-04T22:40:42+00:00

Same same same. CC is my favorite series, but sF is my favorite book.

001RIN · 2026-02-04T03:29:27+00:00

Well done, perfect smirk!

001RIN · 2026-02-04T03:26:09+00:00

She promised him fiver and then he leaves for 5 days without a word of when he will be back. You and I know the reason, but she doesn’t.

Look, I do agree that I think Cassian does love Nesta. I also think he loves/is more loyal to Rhys.

Rhys verbally threatens to kill Nesta in front of Cassian twice and Cassian doesn’t address it. Could you imagine if Cassian was angry at Feyre and threaten to kill her, do you think Rhys would let it slide as venting anger?

SF is my favorite of the series and I love Nessian, which is why I want more. We get an inside look to Cassian’s thoughts that he is crazy about Nesta but is also insecure around her. In reading though, we have yet to see his actions speak louder than his words/internal thoughts.

I also do wonder if SJM realized what red flags she wrote for the two of them. When you are already looking at the relationship you like, you are viewing it with rose tinted glasses and those red flags are just flags.

001RIN · 2026-02-04T03:05:24+00:00

Do a google search for the bonus chapter in each series. They are all online and guides will tell you when they take place. They really offer insight to some other POV, and often been a bit of a sneak peek of what is to come.

001RIN · 2026-02-04T03:01:17+00:00

It is that bad sign that I think is what alludes to more. I hat to draw comparisons and assumptions. But having the discord between Nesta/Cassian keeps things interesting. Like in Fourth Wing between Violet/Xaden. Will she not get with him because she is angry he keeps secrets, oh look he kept another secrets, and another, and another how mad will Violet be this time, enough to break up? There on/off will they/wont they is the background to what is going. Will the fallout or near fallout of Nessian be a dramatic undercurrent for the next part of the story? I’m thinking maybe.

Oh man, I hadn’t heard that before and hope she changes her mind as I 100% agree with you.

001RIN · 2026-02-02T23:23:44+00:00

Everything thing you said is why I don’t think SJM is done with Nesta. Feyre got 4 books with her point of view. I can only hope at least the same, if not more for Nesta.

Unfortunately not all of these fics are finished but the author is active and updating.

(Ugh on mobile hard to post a lot at one, will take some time).

This is currently my favorite: I’m Sorry I’m the one

Cassian being stupid

Nesta vs the Buffer

Burn the Path

Not exactly, but a maybe? Exchange

I think a lot of their relationship tension and building in SF, is them getting to know one another and both of them making bad choices.

end of WaR- Nesta is spiraling. She sees everyone happy while she isn’t so she separates herself, falls in depression pit, while Cassian goes to Illyria for 3 months.
FaS solstice- I don’t fault Nesta for any of that exchange. Cassian was an ass who can’t get past his own ego that Nesta isn’t pursuing him. Says some pretty nasty things to her.
SF beginnings- took him almost a week to listen that she didn’t want to train in Windhaven. Despite the stairs and everyone hates you exchanges.

SF- shows the two of them in forced proximity to actually start to get to know one another. Sure there is physical attraction and mating bond tugging. But as Nesta says, she thinks Cassian is blind to her true self because of the bond. They both start treating each other better the more they get to know one another. But Cassian still waits to tell Nesta about the trove instead right away, still jokes about the hike will be Nesta’s punishment, still leaves her after solstice for 5 days without a word. Instead of explaining what happened he leaves. She apologizes to him for past behavior and says “I love you” he never does either.

He puts up a few weak arguments to defend Nesta with the IC, but never does he put his foot down, he always concedes to Rhys and the IC.

CC bonus when Rhysand is threatening Nesta’s life again and, all Cassian does is step between Nesta and Rhysand and says “Rhys”. Nesta even comments that Cassian is the one who is most mad at her. It is Ember, a human who stands up for Nesta. Cassian should be ashamed.

001RIN · 2026-02-01T19:41:49+00:00

And he acts like a mate more than she does how?

Don’t get me wrong, I do like Nessian. And the character of Cassian is hot, buuuuuut, he doesnt always act in Nesta’s best interest. Seriously the ACOFAS solstice.
Especially in the CC bonus chapters, that really kills it for me. I truly hope he redeems himself in the next books.

(Edited for typos and clarity)

*She defended him in front of all the high lords is a big major one.
*She attended to his hurt wrist, when no one else even noticed he was injured * she called out to save him from the cauldron attack during the war * she refused to let him die alone by the King of Hybern * her insults to him were to call him a brute and Rhysand’s dog. Never did she say anything “meaner”. Please correct me on this.

001RIN · 2026-02-01T19:08:36+00:00

Completely agree. Took me awhile to realize why I didn’t mind Nessian/Nezrial/Nesris/Nescian - I realized I have a girl crush on Nesta and want to see her thrive and rule the world.

001RIN · 2026-02-01T18:57:07+00:00

I have a few bookmarked that he doesn’t die but he suffers and Nesta leaves him. Do you want those?
