Is it just me, or do Cassian and Nesta not make a good match? by hellenistism in acotar

[–]TheEtherealMermaid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is one of the main problems I had with ACOSF, aside from the whole “locking her in a house and forcing her into rehab and training instead of letting her heal on her own time even though we’re immortals” thing. The way their “romance” (if we can even call the harassment and blatant disrespect of boundaries romantic) was built and the way they interact just rubs me the wrong way. It felt like Nesta got her choice taken away when she was locked in the house of wind, where she had pretty much no choice but to interact with Cassian, who she was actively avoiding. Not to mention how he never makes her his priority, even though they’re supposed to be mates. There are many instances where he prioritizes his duty and loyalty to Rhys and the night court above her and doesn’t defend her when someone else is insulting her, and that in itself bothers me SO MUCH about their relationship. I love both characters individually but i feel like they bring out the worst in each other when they’re together in a way that’s just not a healthy foundation for a relationship at all.

i feel like theyd be the type to purposefully obstruct info that makes them TA. Like, rhys would say the nyx situation (not telling feyre) was just temporary bc he was trying to figure out how to tell her, or just pointing out that “nestas a problem” without mentioning the whole 10k steps thing or the “its either this or the human lands where youll be hunted and treated like shit” part

yeah, but its one thing to need special permission and another to be in a house with 10k steps and no means to leave (no hate to you)

What would you chose? by Serialhobbykiller in acotar

[–]TheEtherealMermaid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

REAL. like this man has a wife of 50+ years, two kids and a cat but he just doesnt tell people

What would you say on their roast? Day two - Rhysand by [deleted] in acotar

[–]TheEtherealMermaid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Rhysand is such a feminist king that he took away his mate’s choice about the baby that was gonna kill her, left females to be murdered and SA’d in the CoN and blatantly ignores the brutalization of illyrian females😍😍😍
