THIS IS WHY I LOVE ROWAN MORE THAN RHYS(don’t come for me!!!)
ROWAN + ROWAELIN STAN 4EVA
One of the things I love about Rowaelin and their dynamic (aside from really relating to her as a woman who unapologetically loves herself and is good at most things) is that he’s not like, possessive? A lot of male fantasy romance heros are possessive and growling and snarling at others, but like the only time in the book he gets vaguely possessive is right after they bone the very first time, and it’s like a “hmm, weird feeling, gotta be careful with that” and isn’t mentioned again. Fenrys shows up and to Aelin he’s like “have fun flirting with our boyfriend babe”. Like even with Arobyn he just puts on the almond skin oil (it’s the grooming and psychosis that bothers him, not the possessive element of it). Like he’s so confident in himself and his relationship with Aelin that he doesn’t feel the need to do that, which is incredibly sexy, and much more reflective of the dynamic that I want in real life.
Cass meets Aelin…. And well what do you expect?
a/n: thank you @fiercehildr for inspiring this with this post. I recommend looking at it before reading!

Cassian groaned as he sensed another sneeze ready to hit him. Cauldron damned allergies and cauldron damned pollen. Why did Rhys have to send him to pick up Elain from her date thing with Lucien? Of course, when he thought about it, it made sense. Az was still a little heartbroken and Rhys was overwhelmed with work so Cassian was the only option left.
“ACHOO!”
His loud sneeze felt like it echoed between worlds and as he turned in search for Elain he jumped back at the sight he saw. There was a circular portal, almost like a mirror and a stunning female staring back at him in shock.
“What the fuck?” The two said it at the same time and gawked at eachother. The female had pointed ears half-covered by shining light blonde hair with a tiara sitting on her perfect head. Her eyes were turquoise with golden rings that stunned Cassian into silence. His eyes trailed down towards her body and the skin-tight green dress she wore.
His nose itching pulled him out of his trance and he grimaced as- “ACHOO!”
The portal disappeared and Cassian was left standing there like an idiot as he peered at the spot the female had once been.
“Cassian?” Elain’s honey sweet voice reached him and he shook his head slightly.
It must have been a hallucination. There was no other explanation! Unless… his sneezes could open? No! Improbable…

anyone part two?
~Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas~
Book mark says > Midnight readers which is the name of me & my friend’s book club :)
Aelin’s parents: Aelin is dangerous and needs to learn how to control her powers.
Also Aelin’s parents: *Don’t give her any training*
Aelin: *Loses control and nearly burns down a fucking library*
Aelin’s parents: *shocked gasp*
Rodan spilling tea in Queen if Shadows was one of my favourite things ever. Like he’ll see Aedion and be like, “Oh you’re Graviel’s son right?” When literally no one, not even Gavriel himself knew Aedion was his son. Or when he meets Lysandra and straight up tells them she’s a shifter which is her deepest secret. ROWAN WAS SPILLING ALL THE TEA IN QUEEN OF SHADOWS
Rowan: Do you want to have kids?
Aelin: I already have a kid
Rowan: Fleetfoot doesn’t count she’s a dog
Aelin: SHE IS MY BLOOD
Aelin: Aedion are you the little spoon or the big spoon?
Aedion: I’m a knife
Lysandra from the other room: He’s the little spoon
Arobynn pointing to Celeana and Sam: I have created two perfect assassins
The Mute Master: You fucked up two perfectly good kids that’s what you did. Look at them they have anxiety.
Honestly, we as a fandom are underrating when Celaena straight-up fucked Grave up. Like, why do we not talk about this??? We had seen Celaena go into that killing calm before when she was going to get revenge on Farran, but I don’t think we ever truly saw what she was willing to do to avenge her loved ones, or we never really saw it in action. Maybe I have my facts wrong but, I’m pretty sure while we knew what Celaena was capable of doing to someone we hadn’t actually seen it in action. And please if I am incorrect tell me, but I don’t think we are giving that chapter the glory it deserves. I MEAN SHE LEFT HIM IN FUCKING PIECES! Maybe there are posts on it but I don’t think I ever saw one. But overall this chapter deserves so much more attention than it got.
Rowan, after explaining a plan: Any questions?
Aedion: Why did my dad leave me?
Aelin: Is it possible for me to carry even more concealed daggers than I already am?
Fenrys: Why is it toothpaste not teethpaste?
Dorian: Can I fuck myself in female form?
Chaol: Why did my mother never try to get in contact with me?
Lysandra: What do I really look like?
Lorcan: WILL ELIDE EVER LOVE ME?
Elide: WILL LORCAN EVER LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE?
Gavriel: Will Aedion ever forgive me?
Manon: WILL ABRAXOS EVER STOP PLAYING IN THE FUCKING FLOWERS
Rowan: About the plan, guys, questions about the plan.
Aelin: Do I look good?
Aedion: You look like you’re about to commit arson.
Aelin: Perfect
If you took a shot for every time you made a bad decision would you still be sober?
Rowan: Yes
Lysandra: Maybe a little tipsy
Dorian: Wasted
Aelin: I’d be fucking dead
Lysandra: God I wish there was some wasteland I could banish people to.
Aelin: There is. It’s called the afterlife.
Lysandra, about to shift into a snow leopard: That is an amazing idea.
Aelin: Last night I found out Rowan is a sleep talker.
Lysandra: Oh really?
Aelin: “The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell” Right in my ear at 3 am.
