I read a lot. And then cry because I'm afflicted with writer's block.

The way I see it, Vi and Xaden are compliments of their dragons. Tairn is a grump, but he's always out to protect Andarna and Violet. He has a soft spot for his girls, including Sgaeyl, but otherwise, he's noble, fiersome, regal. Xaden is MUCH the same.
Sgaeyl, on the other hand, is vicious. She's short-tempered, spicy, and gets her point across. She ONLY has eyes for Tairn. Whoooo does this sound like 👀

Xaden using sgaeyl and tairn’s bond as an excuse to be close to Violet all while sgaeyl rightfully sasses him up for it is now my sole will and purpose to life
PETITION FOR REBECCA TO RELEASE A BOOK DEDICATED TO XADEN’S POV ! (Honestly if it were up to me I’d ask for every PoV but as it is smtg that cannot be plausible or made possible I limit my demand to a Xaden’s pov of every book)

Ending of Fourth Wing:
Violet learns a dark secret about Xaden, there's a major battle against the venin in a surprise location, Andarna comes in clutch despite initially being told to not be there, someone important to Violet dies, the day is saved but a bombshell revelation appears in the final pages.
Ending of Iron Flame:
🎶Second Verse, Same as the first🎶

“Can you honestly tell me Sgaeyl was at her wit’s end when you showed up at Montserrat? You’ve never fully tested how long they can be apart.” “Feel like asking her yourself?” Xaden quips, arching a brow. A low growl rumbles as Sgaeyl stalks forward, menace gleaming in her eyes.
Embodiement of a girlboss actually. Be a menace, girl, I love it. I ENCOURAGE IT

We can call Violet and Xaden a power couple, but the iconic power couple is actually Tairn and Sgaeyl. I love those dragons an insane amount

finding out that the scary blue dragon that wanted to eat violet after parapet was bonded to xaden and spending the rest of the book thinking "wow i wonder what xaden's mental interactions are like with her"
then we get xaden's bonus chapters and find out it's just him blocking sgaeyl out all the time, and her breaking through just to humble him for the hundredth time that day

I have fallen head-first into a very deep love for the fourth wing but I would rather die than try to pronounce a single name or town out loud

Tairn: YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO BURN WHAT IS MINE.
Violet: Awwwwwww, Tair-Bear! You love me! 🥰
Tairn: *deep sigh* Silver One, I swear, if Sgaeyl EVER finds out that I told you her nickname for me, she is going to fry us both.

It just dawned on me… what if Brennan’s signet is mending because what he wanted most in the world was to help Violet with her pain? They say signets are what the rider is at their core and, despite his many flaws, Brennan loves Violet.
He grew up watching his little sister —someone he should keep safe— always in pain, always breaking, always crying, and it made him wish he could do something about it, so his signet gave him a chance to help her. Because, back then, before the venin and the Battle of Aretia, Brennan was first and foremost a brother, Violet’s brother.

Extra Xaden POV spoilers
I’m not sure what I love more about the bonus chapters: Xaden calling Violet a pint-size morsel of straight-up arsenic, or him calling Andarna cute.
Not to mention him calling Sgaeyl my girl.

Xaden: I think I’m ill
Sgaeyl: you’re fine
Xaden: no seriously, my stomach feels weird and my heart’s not beating right and my head’s a mess and I can’t focus
Sgaeyl: yes.. when Violet’s around..
Xaden: ..oh my god she’s poisoning me
Violet: you’re in love with me dumbass!
Xaden: ..oh my god she’s poisoning me with love is that possible?!
Tairn: you’re a fucking idiot.
