The High Lady, her General and Spymaster

🎨: artby.aika0 on IG and Pinterest

Like Rhysand, who's a High Lord and has a General (Cass) and an Spymaster (Azriel), Feyre is going to have Nesta and Gwyn at her side. We all know how I think each mated couple of acotar serve a role. Feysand as the rulers, Nessian as the warriors or generals of armies and Gwynriel as spies. I really hope these three ladies get closer and be the sexiest governors in Prythian.

How bat boys managed to/are going to have these bad bitches as their mates is beyond me. Also, Azriel... HURRY YOUR LAZY ASS UP

[starsreminisce]

Throughout the entire series, no one talks to Azriel the way Gwyn does.

She doesn’t seem to be afraid of his shadows, doesn't stare at his hands, and doesn’t seem concerned over his aloofness. She is comfortable around him, teasing him, and he’s just as comfortable with her, teasing back.

Cassian is puzzled about what’s bothering Azriel until they drive into prepping the Valkyries for the blood rite, but he sees so clearly how Azriel looks at Gwyn. Nesta, too, notices how differently Gwyn treats Azriel, calling him her new ribbon.

Without Gwyn, Nesta wouldn't have strived to do better, and without Gwyn, no one else would have signed up the first time Nesta tried to do something for someone other than Elain.

Cassian knew to bring up Gwyn and Emerie to get Azriel to abandon the mission to rescue Eris, and Azriel’s siphons and shadows reacted in contrast to what he said.

Nesta grew apart from Elain and grew closer to Gwyn. It’s not surprising to me, for Azriel to be so similar to Nesta, to follow suit as well.

E/riel's when they find out people love Gwyn for being an incredible character, and not just because of who they ship her with!

I just read all of Palmarosa yesterday and I am blown away by your character development. You are amazingly talented and I cannot wait for Chapter 29.

In good news I finished chapter 29 today! I also started chapter 30 (I really don't want those chapters coming too far apart because chapter 29 honestly ends in a really bleak/grim place), and got about 1000 words into that!

It's been really awesome to have a bit more time for Palmarosa again :D And I've started playing BG3 again which has really helped just for mentally holding the atmosphere in my head! Every time I see Raphael I get so stupidly excited lmao

Gwyn and Elain are both described with light imagery. But i see them as different.

I see Elain as warm, glowy sunlight. Like warm summer, orange/yellow-ish which radiates warmness.

I see Gwyn as pure light. Like the moon. White. Pure light.

Both of them have light imagery but they are still so different. In my opinion, Elain is the sun and Gwyn is the moon.

6, 12, 21 for Owen please

Hi 🥰🥰

6- What’s something you have in common with this character?

As much as I love Owen Strand that is a tough one because he has confidence and leadership that I myself do not possess, and my eating habits are more akin to raccoon fishing stuff out of a dumpster lol… but I will say I also know what it’s like to have your life changed by divorce (I was the kid not the person getting divorced) but that is a reason I love the Strand family so much in general.

12- What’s a headcanon you have for this character?

Basically my headcanon is that Owen was not absent for TK’s entire childhood after the divorce- I maintain there was a couple of rough years where he wasn’t as present as he should have been but after Gwyn kicked his ass and he made it to TK’s holiday concert then he made more of an effort- I’m not saying he never chose work over his kid but he was always in TK’s life and saw his son every week otherwise they wouldn’t be as close as they are because even in the pilot it’s clear how close they are and who much Owen knows his kid, which I don’t think they would have been if Owen was truly never there

21- if you’re a fic writer and have written for this character, what’s your favorite thing to do when you’re writing for this character? What’s something you don’t like?

In fact I have- (Will Ferrell Anchorman voice) you can say I’ve written about a quarter million words about this character 🥰🥰

And that is because Owen is very fun to write- I love writing dad Owen, writing Owen as a dad taking care of/frantically searching for/patching up his kid(s) is very fun 😍😍

Something I don’t like (but won’t deny happen- I just felt it didn’t happen to quite the extent others do) is because my long fic starts when TK is five and goes through the years of the divorce it was much less fun to write trying but coming up short Owen but I did- the petty his ex wife is seeing someone new Owen, falling asleep and his kid gets injured when he was supposed to be watching them Owen- not showing up for not just there holiday concert but missing other big things Owen- less fun to write but I definitely have!

Thank you for the ask 😍😍😍

This quick sketch of Gwyn was done by the talented tomandosal!

The past week has been an absolute joy seeing all the Gwyneth Berdara love for Gwyn Week. She is a character a lot of us can relate and rally around.

I can't wait to read more about her and discover her past, her powers, and what all she can do and be as she continues on the path of healing and growth. She will be an unstoppable force to be reckoned with. I just know it.

To all the Gwyneth Berdara's out there, never give up. Keep your light shining bright and looking to the horizon of a new day. Don't let those hard days win. For you are a survivor and a warrior 💖

Raven would come across multiple banners with his and Linneas face on it reading “Raveej x Linea 4ever.” And yes those names are mispelled on the banner not me accidentally doing so

Raven rolled his eyes before tearing them all down. Both Gwyn and Hubert would blow gaskets if either of them saw this.

.... Maybe he should let Gwyn see one. Her idea of 'consequences' did tend to be... enjoyable, albeit exhausting.

Me, upon seeing two women get pitted against each other for the sake of some guy: ok but what if they kissed instead? #feminism

Are there any fandoms you haven't written for yet but would like to in the future? Or future fanfic ideas/stories that have been on your mind that you want to do after you finish your other fanfics?

I love reading your replies 😊

There's...

There's so many, anon

You know how some people worry about running out of stories to write? Yeah, I'm out here begging my brain to shut the fuck up because I already have enough stories to write.

I don't have anything seriously on my mind. I have wanted to write for the Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji fandom, and the Bungou Stray Dogs fandom for a long time. I have another long Bull/Dorian/Cullen fic I want to write for Dragon Age but that might get superceded by the latest game coming out and new characters.

I also have quite a few original stories with completely original characters that I want to write.

And don't get me started on the amount of fandoms I want to write PWPs for because we'd be here all day. I've also written for additional fandoms and not ported my fics over from Livejournal and FF.net and other websites. So I'd say there's like another 10 fandoms I've written for where if you don't know my old usernames (no I'm not going to share them lmao), like...they're just floating out in the ether.

The ideas do not stop, and sometimes I am in bed like 'pls just...let me sleep' and they fall on me like when you open an overstuffed ADHDer's cupboard and everything falls on top of you at once sdalfkjdsa

Gwyn is a Priestess, a Valkyrie, a Carynthian Warrior. She is the living essence of a brave, loyal, and strong woman. She deserves nothing but good things for all her life after everything she has been through. I, for one, can't wait to read more about her continued journey and growth 💙
