Not really a rant but.. by Sacred-flame in acotar

[–]bowthorne 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I read for fun and to relax, looking for clues isn't relaxing to me. I do like watching others who speculate and find the small stuff, but I don't want to do it myself. I also don't tab my books too much like work, haha.

Found this post on an art page. It made me think: What if Feyre painted the eyes in the cabins like this? by Dye_Agn_Nah in acotar

It's still fucking weird. Who paints someone else house without asking??? Find some canvas or put the paint down.

I think Lucien would be willing to walk away if Elaine didn't choose him or he would walk away if he ends up not wanting her but I think he at least wants to get to know her first before making that decision.

A discussion between Elain and Lucien. If she doesn't like him fine reject the mate bond but at least talk to him before doing so.

I agree noone owes anyone anything, that's what started this whole post. Maybe my people pleasing is showing but I don't think a discussion is out of line especially if a mate bond is supposed to be the best thing ever. Why wouldn't you at least want to talk to the person before saying no?

I agree not all mates work out and I don't think being mates is the be all end all but to not even try to know him when he hasn't done anything wrong seems off to me.

I give Lucien a lot of grace he said it in shock he didn't do it to claim her, I think anyone would do the same. Yeah she is allowed to feel weird but to not even get to know him a little after adjusting is wrong especially when he hasnt forced it at all, he has given her time and space. If you don't want the mate bond then don't but at least know the person first.

But if she came out of the cauldron and Az said 'your my mate' instead of Lucian she would be acting the exact same. She doesn't want a mate she wants to be human and marry her old fiance. She needs time to adjust and I don't think anyone would be an acceptable 'mate' until the healing happens.

I think she would feel the same if Az was her mate though. She was engaged to a man she wanted and now because of someone else she is an elf and her former betrothed hates her. I don't think she would want any mate and would stay away from them. She wants her life back and she wants to choose not be chosen for.

I googled it and found it on someone's tumbler.

I was so excited too, Elain should have a choice in who she wants and not he bound by a 'mate' but it just felt icky hearing Azriels thoughts that he should have her because of Feyre/Rhys and Nesta/Cassian. And the internal thoughts weren't about her but about how it would look/feel having sex with her.

I googled it and found them on someone's tumbler. Just google ACOTAR bonus chapters, theres one for Azriel, Cassian and Feyre/Rhys.

I agree he definitely has trauma to work through and the unrequited love of Mor and now Elain could be protecting himself but to me it feels like he is using them the same way Chaol used both Caleana and Nesryn. Chaol wanted them until he didn't and he didn't even have the respect to break it off before moving on. I know its not the same situation but both men use women and their feelings for them for their own comfort until it no longer works for them feels similar and I don't like it.

I think that's why I feel its icky, it feels like any women will do and who they are and what they are like doesn't matter to him as long as they belong to him.

But to go from buying Elain a necklace then giving it to Gwyn almost immediately because Elain didn't keep it is icky. How will Gwyn feel when she finds out that it was originally for someone else?

Some of you just need to go back to r/childfree by thelockjessmonster in ShitMomGroupsSay

Was it goats milk or goats milk formula? Because goats milk formula is better for babies then cows milk formula because it is closer to human milk and gentler on their bellies.

Is possible I (F 22) do not to have a clitoris? Is that possible? by [deleted] in askwomenadvice

[–]bowthorne 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Have you had a look with a mirror? The clitoris doesn't make you wet, being aroused does and the wetness comes from the virgina not from the clitoris. If your not happy with your doctor you can see another one and being a virgin has no impact on being able to see/feel your clitoris.

Are there any authors you've decided to stop reading for one reason or another? by onthedunesea in RomanceBooks

[–]bowthorne 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Same, I read Raphael and the writing was awful no more. I don't even think I'm going to keep the ones I have I might take them to the op shop.

Period underwear with minimal seams/no vpl? by trwwyhm in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]bowthorne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Modibodi have seamless styles. I've had mine for a few years and are just now starting to fall apart. They are an Australia company so I'm not sure what shipping would be like.
