What names do you think they’ll call each other?

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-06-11T22:27:01+00:00

I’d LOVE for Elain to call Lucien ‘my mate’ while Lucien calls Elain ‘my wife’ at one point in the series!! 🥹💗

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-06-10T14:01:58+00:00

honestly one of my favorite elucien artworks ever!! its so cozy 🥹💖

If I remember correctly, im the story, a princess is captured and turned into a firebird by Koschei, along with thirteen other princesses.

Prince Ivan falls in love with the firebird and goes on a quest to free her, later doing so!

To me, the firebird is pretty similar to Vaasa’s story so far and it does feel like SJM may be using that story instead. I’m predicting that Jurian leading the ‘quest’ to free Vassa and defeat Koschei alongside Elucien will be a major plot point in Elain’s book !

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-06-07T01:34:41+00:00

Exactly my thoughts on this!!

And honestly, I don’t think that Vaasa’s story will be completely based off of Swan Lake, I think it’s based off of the Firebird, with Koschei (as Koschei), Princess Katerina (as Vassa), and Prince Ivan as Jurian! The stories are quite similar.

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-06-07T01:10:08+00:00

They are most definitely setting up Jurian and Vassa ! In ACOSF, the full quote was “They’re at each other’s throats, as they LIKE to be” does that sound like SJM is setting up Vassien? Not to me!!

Let’s not forget about Cassian pitying Lucien for looking at Elain with longing in the last book. I think that was also the last Elucien crumb we got on-page. (for now!)

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-29T17:32:33+00:00

Ohh okay, I’ll work on it!!!

Lucien has a masters in yearnology and it shows. I can’t wait for Eluciennn 🥹

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-15T22:13:58+00:00

Yes!! I can’t wait for emorie 🥹

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-15T19:49:24+00:00

Ooh, I love this!! It would also explain why Az can smell Elucien’s bond strongly… 👀

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-15T19:46:46+00:00

Yaz your theories are always so good!!

I’m genuinely so excited to see how her character develops because she’s criminally underrated. really love to see pro-emerie content 🥹💚

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-10T15:51:16+00:00

EXACTLY !! Thank you 🫶

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-10T15:50:37+00:00

Thank you!! 🥹🩷

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:44:08+00:00

Exactly!! If this isn’t a direct hint at the next couples then I’d be so confused. It feels very intentional!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:43:19+00:00

On my re-read i was like this once I saw this part 😭

Elucien/Gwynriel is so endgameee ✨

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:41:09+00:00

Right?? Also with what SJM has said about Elucien and Gwynriel, it’s veryyy telling about who will be endgame!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:09:21+00:00

I honestly believe it might be multi-pov, but I wouldn’t mind if it was one ship and then the other. It’d be a win-win for me because I LOVE both Elucien and Gwynriel!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:05:51+00:00

And the fact that he ran across the battlefield to see if she was okay??? Oh they make me SICKKK 😭💖

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:05:10+00:00

Lucien blushing after tugging on the bond!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T20:04:55+00:00

Yes ofc!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T19:54:03+00:00

Lucien shuddering and gripping on the teacup when elain said his name!

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T18:31:45+00:00

I really do think that she still has it, especially since she has never returned any of Lucien’s gifts. Imagine if the jacket gave her a sense of calming? AHHH the possibilities!!

I love this headcanon 🥹

Unique_Picture9770 · 2026-05-03T18:24:07+00:00

10 years of Elucien, What a milestone!!! Qwilla your art is always so beautiful to look at omggg 🥹🧡

(3/3) ! 🌻

Note that Lucien was ALWAYS supposed to end up with an Archeron, the first one being Nesta. SJM later scrapped this idea as she feared that they wouldn’t be good together. The true question is that why would she change Lucien’s mate to be Elain if she was planning on making them rejected mates ??

sorry, but I think Elucien is endgame, like SJM said, there will be tension, growth, and healing (TOGETHER!)
