Was it casual when? No, nothing about this relationship was ever casual.

Nicolibby:

[septxwber]

Get in losers, we’re fangirling over another slow burn

[happygirl2oo2]

Libby: "If I fall…" Nico: "I’ll be there to catch you." Gideon: *looks at Nico* "What if I fall?" Nico: "Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side." Callum: *watches these two interactions* Callum, to Tristan: "And if I fall?" Tristan: "I’ll be the one who pushed you."

just Nico de Varona and his two other halves

Nico de Varona, about Libby Rhodes

[hannigramismyreligion]

I keep seeing everyone ship nibby, but it just feels so weird?? They have no romantic chemistry, and it just doesn't feel right for them to end up together. Perhaps I am desperately in need of platonic opposite sex besties, but yeah, that's my take. I don't hate the ship, but it just doesn't sit right with me.

[maliha-lili]

even if they're not endgame nicolibby should at least fuck once to release all that built up tension

[belle-keys]

my deep dark ta6 confession is that i was never on board with nicolibby, not even from the beginning

THE ATLAS COMPLEX SPOILERS ‼️‼️

Seriously don’t read if you don’t want spoilers.

Okay so I think I’ve scrolled through all of tumblr. All thru Goodreads. Read all the terrible reviews and rants and still nothing has quelled my anger. I feel so rageful. Nothing has ever pissed me off more than this ending

How could Olivie Blake set up something as amazing as academic rivals to lovers, binary stars, meant to be soulmates in every universe AND FUCK IT UP? ARE YOU SERIOUS? HOW COULD YOU TEASE ME WITH THAT AND NOT. GIVE IT TO ME.

And the same with Novacaine??! At the very very very very least you could have at least had Tristan be the one who kills Callum.

and of course. OF COURSE. MY TWO FAVORITE CHARACTERS IN THE ENTIRE SERIES ARE THE ONE WHO DIE. are you kidding me? H O W DOES THIS CONSTANTLY HAPPEN TO ME?? AM I CURSED?

ALSO HOW ARE THERE NO FIX-IT FANFICS YET?? i’ve only seen like one new nicolibby fanfic on ao3 and like two new novacaine ones but that’s not enough to fulfill me??! what happened? did y’all rage quit (cannot blame a single soul??)

so yeah. I feel incredibly betrayed and I need to scream and cry and dig a hole and give Nico and Callum fucking Nova a hug in the afterlife because GODDAMNIT NO ONE DESERVED THEM

One last note: I have always been a Nicolibby shipper, but I would have been happy with a throuple or if Nicolibby had at least kissed once. But you couldn’t even give me that Olivie Blake??

I am shattered. I will never trust again. Use this post to rant about anything you hated about the book in the comments please. I am 100% a hater right now and I have no shame because that ending was downright malicious and fucked.

In a few days, we get to see which ships will come to full fruition in The Atlas Complex. I am literally losing my mind because of it.

I think that Nico, Gideon, and Libby would make an amazing polycouple (like The Sacred Hospitality). Their dynamics are super wholesome. Also, I was down bad for Nico/Libby in the first book. But I also love Nico and Gideon.

I also desperately wish for Tristan and Callum to end up together. The tension is unmatched; they just need to communicate. I can see the potential.

I wouldn't mind some Parisa/Reina content, but I believe it makes more sense for them to not have a love story arc. Reina obviously doesn't care. Parisa, on the other hand, cares, maybe? I'm not really sure. Her story with Dalton confuses me, but there is still some potential for Parisa/Dalton since he showed some new colours at the end of The Atlas Paradox.

This trilogy has way too much power over me.

*slaps rivals-to-lovers ship* “these ships can fit so much codependency in it.”

You know what kills me about NicoLibby? How Nico is (stealthily) Libby’s biggest champion. He keeps telling her she’s enough, he wants her to believe it, he hates when his arguments make her feel small, he hates Ezra because he doesn’t consider him worthy of her, they might bicker and argue and constantly try to best each other, but in the end no one believes as blindly in Libby Rhodes as Nico de Varona does. But they both have too much animosity against each other to ever acknowledge it.
