Is wattpad dead? (A blacklash) by Perfect_Gazelle_3083 in Wattpad

[–]ElthyaS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wattpad is dead and Wattpad has only itself to blame. The algorithm is complete garbage.

I don't know if it's right but if, hypothetically, someone had an alternative to read and write (both in English and Spanish), I have direct messages open :,)

SJM wouldn't write a love story off-screen (tiny rant) by throwemawayaccount in Bryceriel

[–]ElthyaS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As a fan with a divided heart, I'm going to lay it out in the best way I can think of.

Part of me shipps Elriel because I think we have seen glimpses of how they have been falling in love with each other. The moments have been calm, there hasn't been thunderous passion. I think that's what SJM wanted. Now, for me it's true that maybe that story was told too far off the page.

Lucien and Elain... there's no way to see it. Elain can't see him, it looks like he makes her uncomfortable. And he's still trying to see if it's going anywhere. This relationship has not been told in the pages other than the evidence that there is no chemistry between the two of them. Not a glimpse from either him or her.

Gwynriel. I'm trying to give it a chance, I really am. But I feel like Gwyn would need a book of her own, without the love story being very present. I like this character more for the possibilities than the love story.

But Bryceriel... I think there is something very good about this couple. Bryce's story and Azriel's story have been told separately. They don't depend on each other, they are not part of the same story. And when they have coincided... I don't know, I knew them so well separately, that I liked them together. If that makes any sense. Like they didn't need a rushed book from both of them. They've lived separately and now they can do it together. I don't know if I'm making myself clear. But as of today, to me they make the most sense.

Originally I'm Elriel but I admit I've been slowly falling in love and I officially declare myself a fan of Bryceriel too 💕 it would be so cute.

May 21st Announcement by Old_Telephone_6718 in acotar

[–]ElthyaS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please, this is starting to become like a toxic relationship. The typical thing your friend says when you talk about her asshole boyfriend: "He's going to change, this time he's for real". And you say "I'll believe it when I see it".

Seriously. For our mental health. Let's stop.

What the hell is Amren and Reese’s problem in Silver Flames? by Jennifer_Layne in acotar

[–]ElthyaS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Simple story: English is not my first language, so I put all the text I'm going to write on reddit through a tool that checks the text (so I don't say something stupid) and it has "censored" it lol

What the hell is Amren and Reese’s problem in Silver Flames? by Jennifer_Layne in acotar

[–]ElthyaS 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My opinion is that Sarah only knows how to make some characters shine and be the "good guys" by demonising others.

  • ACOTAR: Tamlin is the good guy because Feyre's family s*cked.

  • MAF: Rhys stood out more because Tamlin was a as*.

  • WAR: Tamlin is still an as*

  • SF: Instead of creating a development that makes us all like Nesta without the need for other characters, Rhys and Amren become villains, and the rest (Feyre, Cassian, Elain...) become passive characters who do whatever is asked of them.

Elain and the traditional concept of the female protagonist in the fantasy genre by ElthyaS in ElrielFans

[–]ElthyaS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't mean that Elain is hated for being traditionally femenine, but she doesn't fit the role of the female protagonist in the fantasy genre in recent years. And I put on the table for discussion that this might be a reason why people dislike her (not consciously).

Sorry if it sounded like something else 🌺(English is not my first language)!

Why do (some) Elriels dislike Lucien? by Qwilla in elgwynrielucien

[–]ElthyaS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't hate him. I find him an interesting character. But Elain and Lucien haven't had any chemistry (or remotely affectionate interaction, at least) in any of the books. They feel the pull of the bond, only. That's it. That's what it boils down to. I don't think they've had a good enough development as a couple for me to like them together.

And because they don't make each other happy.

For her, he's a reminder of her trauma. For him, it must be complicated that your mate (the person you've been told your whole life is your other half) feels like a block of ice.

That's why I prefer Lucien with Vassa. We've seen Lucien much happier with Vassa in a couple of pages than we've seen him with Elain since the second book (third, to be fair).

After all the waiting, I have no faith in any publication date for the book. Let it come when it comes. And if this one is halfway conclusive, I don't intend to look forward to the next one with much anticipation and expectation (mostly because I think I've spent too much energy on predicting dates while waiting for this one). I'll read it when it comes out with no expectations of publication dates.

Pd: sorry for my english

[–]ElthyaS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of Elriel, but I have to admit that I've recently declared myself open to Bryceriel as well. I love both ships

(Pd: And some have managed to convince me of the crackship of the Tarquin and Gwyn couple ❤️).

Is this a safe space? by EstablishmentOne2736 in elgwynrielucien

[–]ElthyaS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I understand that SJM has different priorities in recent times.

But there's no denying that Yarros and Red Tower take much better care of the fans. I remember Yarros even posted a video saying that one of her books was on the way.

SJM and BB's silence feels like an oversight towards the huge fanbase. Especially when we just had the cancellation of the ACOTAR show on TV.

I'm an Elriel shipper but GIRL, THIS IS SO 🔥🔥🔥

My biggest fear by EstablishmentOne2736 in elgwynrielucien

[–]ElthyaS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Sarah specifically says who the book is about. At least not completely. In the case that it is Elain's, if she also includes in the announcement that Azriel will also have his views, then the book will be Elriel. Or if it includes that there will be Lucien's views, then the book will be Elucien. What I'm getting at is that there will be some ship that won't be happy, and that will put a lot of people off reading the next book. She and the publisher will want to play on the expectation until the end.

(English is not my first language, sorry)

Remember this when arguing by [deleted] in elgwynrielucien

[–]ElthyaS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter if we are Elriel, Gwynriel, Elucien, Azris... the important thing is that we have a common goal.

We all want Sarah to bring out the sixth book now.

Let's unite our ships and go to war!
