celeana/aelin and chaol ceased to exist as a couple the moment she was unable to forgive him for his part in nehemia's assassination. he didn't kill nehemia, but he trusted his kingdom more than he did celeana. in her eyes, he was as responsible as the person who held the weapon.

elain and lucien ceased to exist as a couple the moment she looked him in the eyes and told him "you were there. you betrayed us." he didn't kidnap nesta and elain and forced them into the cauldron, but in her eyes he's as responsible as ianthe, tamlin and he king of hybern.

#the parallels are there #you could argue about the technicalities of responsibility and blame #but unfortunately for you feelings are never ration or technical #when i read tog all those years ago i shipped chaol and celeana #but as soon as nehemia was killed i knew there was no hope for them left #it doesn't mean chaol and lucien are bad people #they just did something they couldn't be forgiven for by the people they asked forgiveness for #anti elucien #chaol westfall #tog #throne of glass #acotar #a court of thorns and roses #pro elriel
