i haven’t been able to read the grandest game yet but if grayson has a love interest in that book i’m gonna throw hands
#his entire character arc in the brothers hawthorne was learning that he didn’t need a significant other#and that he was just as valuable without one#and that platonic and familial love can be just as fulfilling#and that was (and is) SO IMPORTANT TO ME#especially as an aroace person#our society is so amatonormative that the idea of having a ya book without a love interest can be daunting sometimes#but the brothers hawthorne did it so well#and it was again so important to me#if he has a love interest in the greatest game it COMPLETELY reverses that entire development#i’m not sayin he can’t have a love interest whatsoever; i don’t think he should be without that forever#but i think it shouldn’t be a terrible idea to let the plot live for a bit longer#and let him heal a bit more#and let him form important platonic and familial connections in the meantime#especially if it just ends up the same way as avery and eve and emily#he needs time to live and learn the lesson that he can do more without romantic interests#you can’t just give him a love interest in the next book#but nooo we can’t have books without romance!1!#fuck this bro#i hate amatonormativity#holy shit i just wrote an essay about amatonormativity in the tags of a post about the inheritance games#i’m so sorry to all inheritance games fans who stumbled upon this#my bad yall#the inheritance games#the grandest game#axel rambles#axel REALLY rambles damn
