Oooh what time is it? That's right! It's time to raaaaamble!
Top 3 most shocking moments to me in the ACOTAR series 😂 (in the sense that I was not expecting these things to happen at all):
Feel free to tell me yours ;)
1ST PLACE
His voice broke as he whispered to Elain, “You’re my mate."
Finding out that Elain and Lucien are mates. This moment deserves the first place without a doubt. I was NOT expecting that in the slightest and now they are my acotar OTP ehehe 🧡. Quick note: Because we couldn't have had this moment without the sisters being taken to Hybern that night, I think I should give an honorable mention to that scene here too. I'm not going to give that moment a place in this top 3 but I won't pretend that I was waiting for that to happen either. When Elain and Nesta appeared in that room only to end up being thrown into the Cauldron I was shocked!! I was like "Ariana... what are you doing here?" 😅
2ND PLACE
“I knew,” it gasped, sensing my shift in thoughts. “The tracking … I knew of it.”
“Then why come at all?”
“You … were kind. You … fought your fear. You were … kind,” it said again.
The freaking Suriel dying 😭 (killed by Ianthe of all people, I hate her so much 😤, for everything she did).
3RD PLACE
While we spoke, I said down the bond, "Helion is Lucien’s father." Rhys was silent. Then — "Holy burning hell." His shock was a shooting star between us.
Finding out that Lucien isn't Beron's son but Helion's as a result of his secret love affair with LoA. Well, colour me surprised! I found it sus that SJM would always make references to Lucien's skin color and how it was darker than his brothers' but I can't lie, the possibility of Helion being his father never crossed my mind, not even after his introduction at the HLs meeting.
There are so many other unexpected moments and plot twists in the series that I could have chosen from but ultimately I think these are really the three that made my jaw drop the most. However, and inevitably, I cannot help but also make a reference to the moment when we discovered that Jurian was one of the good guys after all and that he was working undercover, or the moment when we realized that it was Papa Archeron who was returning from the continent at the front of the human fleet in a last attempt (and the first in many years too) to help his daughters.
So yeah... CONCLUDING: Not. Expecting. That.
(P.S. I didn't include here the revelation made by the Suriel that Rhys and Feyre were mates nor the moment I read "And Rhys was dead" because I already started the series knowing who Feyre's endgame was and that she would have her happy ending. If that hadn't been the case I might have gaped a little bit at my books in those parts LOL 😆)

miscellaneous gideon related doodles ive been doing over the past few days bc my brainrot has set in and its unfortunately terminal. some things:
so ghost-eyes sticks around in gideons life, as do the other prison buddies of his. theyre actually a shockingly good influence. despite being willing to commit crimes whenever, they bring a sort of temperance to gideons more. insane thought processes that stops him from doing anything TOO horrible these days. ghost-eyes especially is his hench-uncle. hes a good egg
also some older gids doodles... he wasnt sure if the pines would ever want to hang out w him after the events of that summer but time smooths over some things. hes capable of being normal around her now but he'd be lying if he said he didnt still have a little flame in his heart when it came to mabel
also do you think he ever just remembers something he did as a kid and is like Hey What The Hell Was That About. because thats the funniest mental image to me. sitting up in bed and going 'ten years ago I made a giant robot'
what a life you live

in the future, just putting this out there, the line, "I picked her because I couldn't imagine we'd ever be friends." will be the line that we're all thinking about as they have their first kiss. I'M JUST SAYING
