Gwyn X Azriel - Tumblr Posts

oh my God, I love you.

Azriel is colour blind and can only see Gwyn's eyes and hair

-I have zero evidence but a lot of imagination. Thank you very much.

trying to talk to Elriels is like talking to a wall. It doesn't matter hot much cannon evidence you give, they will be blind and deaf. It is annoying and irritating and I tire of it. Sarah needs to give the announcement ASAP

be on the lookout my smut obsessed people

*SIGHS*

Another AO3 app that's pretending to be official when it's not (or at least isn't making it clear its unofficial.) They're using AO3's name and logo, and embedding ads.

There is no official AO3 app

Someone else is gathering your data, potentially your log in information etc and making use of it how they please. (They say they're not but their privacy policy says otherwise)

They are making money from the ads without the fic writer's consent.

They've also rated it Pegi 3 (which is ludicrous)

Please, even if you care about nothing else, for the safety of your data, please don't use this app. Certainly don't give it your AO3 log in details.

I've told AO3 that it's infringing on its copyright. I will be requesting they remove access of my work as I do not consent to my creative content being used to generate ad revenue for them.

I will be reporting it as incorrectly rated.

The only email address I can find is Narusta@gmail.com which is included in their privacy policy, and boboxway13@gmail.com as their developer.

okay, so I'm not someone who likes to go into conflict but as a survivor of SA, I can never hold back to people that say stupidities. Therefore, here is me standing up for SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIMS

Back story to this because this is crazy:

I was going through the anti ewriel tag because I have a morbid obsession of seeing how my fellow gwynriels shut down the stupid elriel theories and to be honest I also learn a lot by going through them! I'm like "oh, I didn't connected those points! It makes sense" so today was a normal day for me and then suddenly, I see this post about how disrespectful it is for SA victims to see posts of how Gwyn isn't ready to have see and she shouldn't be shipped with Azriel and I agree. It is disrespectful because Gwyn is not her trauma and just minimizing her to it is disrespectful.

So I wanted to comment on the post to say "totally agree" bit instead I found an Elriel in the comment spitting stupidities about how Gwyn isn't ready and she didn't go to Nesta's mating ceremony (honestly, you would think they have the next book with all the things that say happen) and then she said the most stupid thing ever and I will put it on picture because wow

First of all, credits to defending Gwyn to all the people included in the pictures and then about the elriel comment

What

The

Heck

Rhys and Lucien weren't violently attacked? What the hell are you talking about?

Rhys had a nightmare of Amarantha pinning his wings to the bed and you're telling me that this nightmare came out of the blue? This had roots, this fear was there before, this fear had a reason and the fact that you are dismissing it is disgusting.

Feyre found Lucien bound to a freaking tree while Ianthe was assaulting him, and you mean to tell me this isn't violent?

You mean to tell me that just because they were forced to that situation it wasn't violent?

You are saying that being forced into giving your body isn't violent?

What does violent entail? Does there need to be blood? Do they have to have their skin peeled off? Their hair cut off? Their lips split open? Be bleeding from their genitals for it to be considered violent?

Sexual assault is sexual assault it doesn't matter in which form it comes, it doesn't matter if the person said yes and had to it IF THE PERSON WAS FORCED INTO ACCEPTING THEN IT IS SEXUAL ASSAULT

Dismissing their trauma by saying "it wasn't violent and they are men" is disgusting, it reduces you to saying "well, of she was raped then it's on her because she is a woman and she know she needs to take of herself but she didn't so it's on her"

Saying Gwyn is not ready is disgusting. Does she need to be like a dog with her tongue out and thirsting after males to be considered that she is ready? Does she need to be in a constant aroused state for you to say she is ready? What does being ready entail? She reads smut, she banners with Azriel, she jokes with Cassian, we know she is at least curious about sex after reading so much smut so stop coming up with stupid stuff just to make your ship fit

If you need to reduce somebody else, be it fake or real, in order to accommodate the perspective to your ship then maybe your ship wasn't supposed to happen

The universe has spoken and I will heed to its command.

But you know which ACOTAR character I'm most like based on another quiz I made?

Gwyn

Enough said

And then when Gwyn goes to meet his mom, she gets surprised because Nesta is there just laughing with his mom and then Gwyn joins and then Azriel is just staring at the three most important females in his life and wondering how his life changed

Not me wanting Azriel to take Nesta to see his mom on a regular basis after seeing her with Ember (and not tell anyone else) as a mutual benefit to healing Nesta’s childhood trauma and his mom’s trauma and it not being romantically “bringing her home to mom” but just being his best friend and his mom and him sharing something so intimate with a platonic best friend in a way he couldn’t with his brothers because they could have been triggers or he wasn’t ready to share that but with Nesta, now he can.

The Mother and The Cauldron-Part 2

The Mother: HE HAS A MATE!

The Cauldron: I know-

The Mother: SHE ALSO HAS A MATE!

The Cauldron: I know that too, I was there when the bond snapped-

The Mother: WHY WERE THEY ABOUT TO KISS!? WHAT WAS THAT TALK OF ME OWNING HIM THE THIRD SISTER!?

The Cauldron: Yeah, that was bad...

The Mother: IS SHE AN OBJECT THAT MUST BE OWNED!? IS SHE NOT THE ONE THAT SAID THAT SHE WAS A STRONG WOMAN!?

The Cauldron: I know they have mates, but maybe they're just a bit confused because maybe we're not being clear enough-

The Mother: NOT BEING CLEAR ENOUGH!?

The Cauldron: Oh, boy.

The Mother: LUCIEN IS THE HEIR OF DAY AND GWYN MAKES HIS SHADOWS SING AND DANCE! HOW IS THAT NOT CLEAR ENOUGH!?

The Cauldron: Have we considered the possibility that they're just in denial?

The Mother: THEY'RE RED HEADS. THEY'RE OUTSTANDING ENOUGH AND IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH THEN SURPRISE! HE HAS A MECHANIC EYE! SHE WAS TEAL EYES! HE TRAVELS TO THE CONTINET AND MET HER FATHER! SHE BECAME THE FIRST VALKYRIE REBORN! HOW IS THAT NOT CLEAR ENOUGH!

The Cauldron: I...I honestly don't know anymore.

The Mother and the Cauldron-Part 3

I'm sorry. I just have so much fun doing these snippets of them that I don't think I can stop. Dividers by @tsunami-of-tears. Keep doing the Lord's work, sister.

The Mother: It's a beautiful night despite the chaotic encounter between Azriel and Elain. Don't you think, my little cauldron?

The Cauldron: I am not that little-

The Mother: Look at the stars! so lovely.

The Cauldron: Why do you keep cutting me off-

The Mother: So beautiful. I wish everything were as beautiful.

The Cauldron: Are you just going to ignore everything I say-?

The Mother: So bright and shiny, and... what is that?

The Cauldron: What?

The Mother: That! You see that? That's Gwyneth Berdara.

The Cauldron: Indeed it is. What is she doing there?

The Mother: Maybe she can't sleep...

The Cauldron: THERE'S AZRIEL!

The Mother: Okay, nobody panic... HIS SHADOWS ARE NOT TELLING HIM SHE'S THERE!

The Cauldron: THEY'RE TALKING! MOTHER, THEY'RE TALKING-

The Mother: WHY ARE YOU SAYING GOODNIGHT, GWYN!? TELL HIM TO STAY-

The Cauldron: HE'S STAYING!

The Mother: THEY'RE BICKERING!

The Cauldron: LOOK AT HIS SHADOWS!

The Mother: MY HEART! OH, MY HEART! LOOK AT HIM! LOOK AT THEM! SHE IS SMILING AT HIS SHADOWS!

The Cauldron: This is so lovely, so beautiful, so perfect, so-

The Mother: DON'T LEAVE AZRIEL! LOOK AT HER! STAY WITH HER!

The Cauldron: My ship is happening. I'm so happy. I will cry.

The Mother: I'm crying already. Could you take a look at them? They belong together.

Azriel moved closer to give her comfort and confidence because the connection between their souls told him she needed him to be there for her and he did because he is her mate and his love language will definitely be physical touch because I bet that in their book Azriel will be all cuddly and alway be at an arms distance because he can't stay from her and in this essay I will-

From ACOSF, pre-bonus chapter:

Friends to lovers, she falls first he falls harder WHEN SJM

Credits of the post to @bookishwithathought and credits to the main character of this post to @heyovivi because you sent my mind into a spiral

So, imagine this:

It starts small. One day dueling with Gwyn, she manages to throw him to the floor (he was distracted by her beauty, that's how she did it. Of course) and he is just struggling trying to get up and then his shadows just tell him to stop and he, angry and annoyed, stops struggling. And he is just staring at Gwyn, who is standing above him, a sword at his neck, both her feet in each side of his hips and then once she notices he surrendered, a mischievous smile curves her lips and she says "Good boy" and something in Azriel just clicks and his "steeled velvet" friend (sorry, I had to) snaps to attention and he is just left staring at her as she makes her way to Nesta and Emerie who are cheering for her.

She had called him a good boy and he had obviously reacted to it, but it was probably due to the shock.

The next time it happens, Azriel decided to learn mind stilling and who is best to teach such a beautiful art than Gwyn? So, there he is, counting his breaths while Gwyn guides him and he just keeps getting distracted and Gwyn keeps telling him I'm the softest way possible to focus, and when he finally does, she whispers "You're doing so good" and his focus breaks because his mind took a turn in the wrong right direction and now Gwyn is scolding him for not concentrating and he is just trying to mask his arousal.

The third time it happens is in front of both Cassian and Rhys. They're just doing a demonstration on two against one combat when he gets distracted by a nasty comment Nesta made and now he is on the floor confused because now his jaw is on fire and he has no idea what happened. Gwyn, being the soft girl she is, goes to him and asks him if he's okay and he doesn't answer because:

He's embarrassed.

He can see her freckles up close and is doing something weird to his brain.

So worried!Gwyn being very cautious takes her hands to his face to make him focus and the contact makes his skin burn (wrong choice of words) in the best way possible. He is just staring at her in awe and Gwyn noticing his attention, mumbles "That was good, Azriel. You did very good." And he practically melts and Rhys and Cassian are just staring at him like "We lost him"

Then it starts escalating. Suddenly he tries to do everything he can to please Gwyn and she just keeps praising him in the softest ways she can and he is just over the cloud. And then in their first kiss, Gwyn is just there gasping for breath while he tries not to jump on her when she says "you're so so perfect." And something in him breaks because nobody had ever said that to him.

Then later, she holds his hands and kisses them and he loves it.

And then, he scoots closer to her everywhere and his wings touch her back and the simple contact calms her.

Then, he plays with her hair because he loves the way it shines in the sun.

Then, she curls around him while he writes reports and he stops his reports just to hug her and enjoy the way she feels.

Then, during the first time, Gwyn moans "you make me feels so good" and keeps saying praises and he loses it and pounds into her and her hands are on his hair, his face, his back, his hands, and he cums first when Gwyn whispers in his ear "I want all of you" and he feels bad about Cumming first but then he makes up with his mouth and enjoys it because Gwyn is praising him while she rides his face.

And he enjoys sex with her, but he enjoys the simple moments more when she tells him he did a good job somewhere, or when she calls him a good boy, or when she tells him how she loves all of him.

And the Inner circle is just in shock because one of the most feared males in Pyrinthia has his head on Gwyn's legs while she runs her hands through his hair and keeps telling him how perfect and wonderful he is and how much she loves him.

Because in reality,Az is the one with a praise kink and he is very touchy and Gwyn loves loving him and reminding him of that every day.

TATTOOS- AN SJM REVELATION

I was scrolling through Instagram and getting into my feels, and I was singing, and I realized something.

SJM is a genius. A literal genius.

We know SJM does the mate trope and we love it, we live for it, we breath for it and I started thinking about the connections between the books so far and one of the main things she does in the ACOTAR universe (this is only about the acotar universe, not TOG or CC) is that she gives them tattoos when they make a deal.

So, my mind was like: Okay, tattoos are nice. It's pretty because there is no way you can forget that. And then I started thinking about those who made a promise together, and one of the first characters I thought about were Rhys and Feyre.

They made a deal under the mountain and the deal was in their skin.

Then Cassian and Nesta made a deal and the deal was in their skin.

So am I crazy for suggesting that Azriel is going to make a deal with Gwyn and it's going to be etched into their skin?

This seems like something SJM would honestly do and then I started thinking about why she would do this and then I realize that both couples (Feysand and Nessian) made the deal before they accepted the bond, so what if it's a way for SJM to show how they are bound together?

We know they are bound together by the bond but what if before they accept the bond, SJM wants them to be bound by something else so they can spend time together and fall in love without the bond? Because Feyre was already down bad for Rhys when she accepted the bond and it started with the tattoo, and then Nesta fell for Cassian without knowing about the bond and it happened because of the tattoo; so what if in the Gwynriel book we get Azriel and Gwyn making a deal and falling in love without knowing about the mating bond?

And this would be way more romantic because Azriel has been fixated on finding his mate for 500+ years, and the idea of falling in love with Gwyn without the bond is unique.

Am I crazy for suggesting this?

*sighs* I had to:

THE CAULDRON AND THE SHADOW SINGER:

Azriel: but what if the cauldron was wrong?

The Cauldron: what the- Do I have to explain mating bonds to every mated pair in Pyrinthia? Why am I always getting blamed? Blame the Mother!

Azriel: "the third one"

The Cauldron: The third-? You know what? Screw this. You want to blame me for the mother not giving you someone else's mate? Great, go for it. But you know what? Boom, your shadows won't say anything.

Azriel: "his shadows had not warned him"

The Cauldron: how's that? And now, BOOM, she's smiling at your shadows.

Azriel: it was directed at his shadows

The Cauldron: Huh? How's that? And here you go, BOOM, she's kicking you out

Azriel: "are you kicking me out?"

The Cauldron: He's staying, why is he staying?

Azriel: "I can't sleep without my favorite dagger"

The Cauldron: no, wait. You were supposed to leave-

Azriel: "his shadows darted 0ut to dance with it"

The Cauldron: Why is it doing that? I didn't do that

Azriel: "rotate your wrist"

The Cauldron: They're joking with each other. What is happening right now?

Azriel: "something restless settling in him"

The Cauldron: I need an EXPLANATION!

Azriel: "charming irreverence gone"

The Cauldron: Charming irreverence?

Azriel: "Buried the image down deep, where it glowed quietly-"

The Cauldron: I know this glow. How do I know this glow?

Azriel: "A thing of secret, lovely beauty."

The Cauldron: Wait a second, I know this...MOTHER!

The Mother: YOU TOLD ME TO MAKE MATES GET TOGETHER IF I WAS BORED!

Azriel questioning the Cauldron and then having a spark in his chest for Gwyn wasn’t a coincidence

Imagine Nesta and Emerie walking Gwyn down the altar so she can meet her husband/mate/Azriel

That's it, thank you.

BONUS: Rhys crying in the front seat because him and Gwyn (in my mind) have a beautiful bond

So I found this on the news and what bothers me is the fact that they banned milk and honey because it's "indicent" as if a book of poems is the problem and not their toxic mentality and ACOTAR? A book that presents characters development and complex trauma? Like? Is Utah okay? Full article down

https://amp.theguardian.com/books/article/2024/aug/07/utah-outlaws-books-by-judy-blume-and-sarah-j-maas-in-first-statewide-ban

if Gwyn does end up being a light singer, then once Azriel and Gwyn have children I'm going to call them dawn singers.

me waiting for Sarah's announcement

Azriel is the kind of boyfriend that will notice when Gwyn is anxious and quietly make her feel better by doing something random like holding her hand.

I'll raise you another!

Azriel only wearing a blindfold made by the white ribbon

Azriel shirtless & wearing gray sweatpants.

That’s it, that’s the post.

Azriel is on a mission one night and he is just waiting for information and he realizes he had been drawing dots in the sand and he doesn't know why; next time he goes to train with the Valkyries, he looks at Gwyn and realizes he had been drawing the pattern of her freckles.
