#did i rip into this enough? idk its almost 1am and im tired

[gwyns]

Someone dared to suggest that Lucien made up the Mating Bond with Elain.

Lucien.

The Lucien that SJM herself loves?

The Lucien that's avoiding his mate because she wants nothing to do with him?

The Lucien who just puts up with all this harassment and death threats from people he's never harmed?

The one character who genuinely hasn't done a single thing wrong in the entire series?

The bond that... Elain physically reacted to in ACOWAR? And Feyre went into his head and saw it was all honest?

The bond that other people can feel and Cassian literally felt the disappointment RADIATING off him in solstice?

Could you rip into this, if you please? I simply don't have the energy and you're better at this than I am.

Also someone tried to say that when Lucien saved Feyre's life in her trial with the Wyrm by screaming "TO YOUR LEFT" that rHyS jumped into his head and made him do that? Which is just sickening.

I'm sorry this is a mess, I'm exhausted.

"could you rip into this, if you please?" LMFAOOOO

of course i can <3

*cracks knuckles* ahem. do e/riels get off on making up the dumbest arguments??? bc this is stupid af and i'm embarrassed for anyone who thought of this and was like "yeah this makes total sense".

IN WHAT WORLLDDDD would lucien do this? he literally just wants to mind his business, he wouldn't force anything ON ANYONE. and uh yeah newflash? he didn't ask for this bond either. do they not remember how his voice broke when he said it?? it wasn't a claim on elain, he said it more to himself in disbelief bc he always thought his mate was jesminda. why are they so obsessed with making him out to be some creepy stalker? is it bc that's what shadow daddy is and they're trying to project that onto a character they dislike?? i get it... it hurts to discover that az doesn't care about elain's feelings outside of sex but there are better ways to deal with your grief :/

but yeah it makes complete sense that lucien would go through all the pain of his mate not wanting him for...... what exactly? pity? bc he isn't getting that lmao and he's not the type to jerk off to power trips either (unlike az probably). do they also just forget how he was still mourning jesminda as recent as acomaf?? and how he feels immense guilt in acowar over even thinking elain is attractive? yeah this is the man who would fake a bond. also love how this implies elain is stupid bc she wouldn't be able to tell something isn't there, but we all know e/riels don't really care about elain outside of their ship's ✨ aesthetic ✨

BUT OF COURSE! lucien also wouldn't care about feyre, right? even tho he was her first friend in prythian and she idk.... MURDERED HIS FRIEND? SO HE HAD EVERY RIGHT TO TREAT HER LIKE SHIT BUT ULTIMATELY DIDNT? and why THE FUCK would rhys even do that?? what does he gain? are they trying to say he'd want to put his punishment onto someone else??? did y'all even read acowar?? bc it's literally canon that rhys takes on everything instead of letting others do it lol. even if it was lucien i really don't think he'd want him to get whipped on his behalf??? not to mention rhys cheered and bet on feyre during that same trial so i doubt he'd need someone else to warn her so the heat is taken off of him bc guess what? he got punished that night too so their "theory" didn't prevent anything.

i swear to god i'm getting so tired of these shippers ignoring what's canon and pulling theories out of their ass and presenting at as if it actually holds any weight.

lucien stans are officially gatekeeping him so if e/riels want to mention him they have to pay each of us $100 everytime they do. it's the law now.
