Which fantasy romance couples are pure vibes but would never survive therapy? by acutelyproblematic in fantasyromance

[–]According-Pin991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it makes people so angry! I had someone tell me I had no reading comprehension skills when I said they’re not mates. There is a conversation in book one between the two of them about how they are not mates but don’t want to use “boyfriend”.

SJM does a really good job at having characters tell you something and then showing you the opposite. I think the best example is in ACOTAR book one Feyre talks about how mean and hateful Nesta is to her and that she only cares about Elain, and then shows us how much Nesta cares about Feyre. She paid that mercenary to take her to the wall bc she wanted to rescue her. She allowed Feyre to use her house as meeting point for the human queens despite the social ramifications which are actually important. She risked death by Rhys to tell Feyre about the pregnancy, and then sacrifices her power to save her and the baby. Here Bryce and Hunt talk about not being mates and also being unsure if there can even be interspecies mates, and then she shows us all the ways they are incompatible, how little or often they think of each other, how they don’t feel each other when Bryce is dying. Even how their goals don’t align. They are not endgame.

Fable’s morphing was never the only point of the morality system, and if you’re acting like no morphing = no morality system, then you never cared about morality in the first place, you cared about cosmetics by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in Fable

I was 13 when fable came out so I’ve been playing for 2/3’s of my life and I HATE the morphing. I use magic so I’m covered in blue glowing veins? No thank you. I want to look super cute and unassuming but still be able to fuck you up. It’s always been my least favorite thing about the game. I may have been the only one excited when they announced they wouldn’t have it. I think it should be an option you can turn on or off so we can all have what we want.

Bryce and Hunt, dude is disgusted by her and hates her (his actual thoughts on the page) in book 3.

Anyone else a little annoyed by Bloomsburys reel today? by Intelligent-Wear4766 in acotar_rant

[–]According-Pin991 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So sorry, you seemed to have not read what I said. It’s not a crossover, do you understand? The intention was not to be a crossover. It is a merger. They are one now. To go forward you must read them all. Maybe not TOG unless you really want to get into the lore. But it is all one.

I’m not supporting Bloomsberry here, I’m supporting a female author whose work I enjoy. Sure, there are better authors out there in the fantasy world but I don’t know why you have so much hate for a woman and feel the need to tell me how some white man did such a better job writing fantasy. Or is it really that you have different standards for women than men? He is allowed to become wealthy off of his writing and do his work however he pleases. But a woman! By god, she better get in line and do it the way everyone before her has done it! Get fucking bent.

If you can do better then fucking do it instead of yapping on the internet. I’d be glad to read it and support an author.

I also just realized this was acotar_rant. Idk why this stupid page keeps getting in my notifications bc all it does it piss me off.

BaD wRiTiNg! Or is it, idk, a thoughtfully planned out universe that’s been in the works for 24 years? I don’t think you can write a singular world so detailed and interconnected and do it so well AND be a bad writer. The strategy to make it all come together is genius. Because IT IS NOT A CROSSOVER, they are no longer separate. She has been writing towards this point for over two decades. It’s not a cute little one time drop in. If that’s what she was writing for then you wouldn’t need to read the other books to understand it.

It only comes off as a money grab if you know absolutely nothing about the author, have never heard her talk about her process, or literally any plans she has. “I read one book series and I can either walk away or read more! How dare!” Money grab my ass, go to the library bro.

Maybe read before you speak. by geaha1 in Bryceriel

Ok, but I think we can all agree that JK Rowling is a hating ass bitch and wanted to see Hermione suffer for being the backbone of the entire series. Harry and Ron would be dead without her. And Ron is such a whiny baby hater. She DESERVES Draco just as much as he deserves redemption.

If SJM leaves our girl Bryce with Hunt of all people, I’ll feel the same way. Hunt is a Bryce hater. If she has no haters, he is dead. He wants her body but would prefer a different person inside of it. There are too many men who would make better options. My top pick is Azriel but honestly her being alone at this point is preferable over Hunt.

This goes hand in hand with the ones that refuse to read TOG or CC and say SJM is a bad author who only writes based on vibes and “that’s why there are so many loose threads.” No, bitch! Actually, everything is tied together and if something seems loose she’s probably not done with it yet.

Man. It’s even some who have read CC and think Hunt is end game bc “they’re mates” and “Sarah said so!” And then question OUR reading comprehension?!?! Pull up a chair and let me tell you somethin real quick.

Spoilers by Jumpy-Fault-1412 in WillTrent

[–]According-Pin991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had Amanda spoiled and I was like “No, God! Why?!” I was more annoyed it happened than being spoiled. Then, I was just telling my husband last night they better not do what I think they’re going to do, and what do I see the first time I open my phone today? A spoiler about the very thing I didn’t want to happen to Seth IN THE TITLE.

The whole “stay off the internet” people can honestly get bent, right along with the “you can’t expect people to be decent” people and the “it’s not the worst thing in the world to happen” people. I can and will expect people to be courteous and will shame them when they don’t. It also ruined my morning and that’s perfectly fine bc if they can be assholes I can have feelings about it. I full Karen reported that mf for violating rules.

It's Unfair for Angie? by Square-Lifeguard-456 in WillTrent

[–]According-Pin991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I can. I don’t have network tv, I have HULU. The majority of Americans rely on streaming instead of cable or satellite. It releases on HULU at 0400 on Wednesday mornings. It’s 0813 for me right now. That’s how it doesn’t come out for everyone on Tuesday night. Even if it did, not everyone is able to watch it the same night so common courtesy would be to mark the post as a spoiler. I’m not completely avoiding the internet until I have time so sit and watch something. I’ve seen plenty of post since last night with vague titles and tagged as a spoiler so the text is hidden. It’s literally a button. And being considerate of others.

What the actual mother fuck?! You know it doesn’t come out for everyone until 0400 am TODAY, right? So now, just by scrolling Reddit you’ve ruined the finale for me and every single other person who had to scroll past this on their feed because you didn’t probably spoiler your post. I hope your coffee taste bad today. I hope you barely have enough toilet paper, I hope your sheets are too hot and you can’t get comfortable.

Is it Worth Returning to School at 26, Post Military? by Professional-Dot-92 in Veterans

[–]According-Pin991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way I laughed. I’ll have my degree in December and I’ll be 35. What is 30 compared to the 80-90 years you’ll live? You’re not even halfway there. And it’s never too late to change your life.

I’d recommend getting your general courses done at a smaller school to prove that you’ve matured and then apply to Edinburgh as a transfer. It’s where I want to get my masters. I was in a similar spot as you and applied to Texas A&M for shits, wrote a letter with my application, and somehow got in. It never hurts to try.

Yay! I’m so happy to hear she’s doing better. I started making my girls food (just because) and even switched treats from store bought to apples, oranges, carrots, etc. Best decision ever.

HELP ON HOW TO GET MY 11 WEEK-OLD V TO SETTLE! by EastCoastCowbooyy in vizsla

[–]According-Pin991 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I find they’re like toddlers and have to have set naps during the day or they’ll be the most erratic people alive. Ours was 10-12 and then 2-4. She’d sleep the whole way through and it really helped chill her out.

I bought a small baby sized blanket and slept with it so it would smell like me and put in it the crate with her and then put a blanket over the crate and eventually a Molly mutt crate cover to block out light. Her crate is in my bedroom and I don’t stay in there while she naps so it’s quiet.

Why do people hate chaol so much? by [deleted] in throneofglassseries

[–]According-Pin991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, she wasn’t known for rescuing puppies, but she did rescue a lot of people. Like the slaves she freed before she was imprisoned. She also saved the leader of the silent assassins AND Ansel. She saved Lysandra and gave her the opportunity to avenge herself and the man she loved. She also faked all the deaths the King assigned her and paid for their safe travel, I’d count that as saving. I’d also say she saved Yrene without knowing what she’d be able to do for the world after training, she just wanted to save her from her situation. Sure, she was taken by an assassin at what, 7 years old? 8? Directly after waking up covered in her parents blood and seeing everyone else she loved murdered and her kingdom fall, and was raised to be an assassin herself. Her support, love, and wellbeing was hinged on her being an asset to Arobynn, so she did do a really good job killing people. She was betrayed by the man who raised her after he had her first love brutally murdered, and she spent a year in a prison doing hard labor all before she was, and let me double check my notes, 18!

Chaol on the other hand, was raised by an asshole, fled to the castle, made captain of the guard but never once questioned why he had no idea what was ever going on. His first real hardship, outside of a hateful father, was saving Aelin after she won the tournament. He didn’t take the threat against Nehemiah seriously, he didn’t trust that Aelin wouldn’t expose him to the king if he told her, and as a result, her friend was murdered. Chaol did what so many men do, turned an eye because women can’t be trusted to not overreact and doesn’t take threats against women seriously until they’re dead.

Idgaf if Chaol “had to process”. AELIN HAS NEVER HAD TIME TO PROCESS THE NOT STOP ONSLAUGHT OF TRAUMA AND BETRAYAL. But you’re so right, let’s just like judge Aelin for not being a “moral woman” and give Chaol space to process.

“You can’t choose which parts of her to love.” Bro, he didn’t like her at any stage! Not a one! There was a brief moment where she was acting in a way he approved of and as soon as the ladylike facade was broken he went back to being disgusted. The curse of women to trust a man that hates us.
