i think it would’ve been better if rhysand hiding his wings chafed a bit. like his body prefers to have them out and that hiding them goes against what’s natural to him. but he does it as a way to ‘fit in’ with the rest of High Fae society who would probably not take him seriously or treat him as lesser if he showed up to a meeting with his wings out. i think it would humanize, for lack of a better word, him if he had moments around feyre or the ic where he lets his wings out and it’s a relief to, instead of using them as a scaring tactic or a display of strength.

#sjm should've made rhysand born with wings #a lot of rhysand’s scenes in acomaf specifically lack character and history #when things aren’t happening he’s expo dumping #when things *are* happening sjm gives him two witty remarks and then makes him stand silently next to feyre as things happen #there’s even a lack of feeling/emotion when it comes to his relationships with the ic #wdym we skipped over rhys and cassian’s immediate reactions after azriel gets shot with an ash bolt???#anyways all this to say there’s no part of rhysand that’s just him #no quirks no characteristics #sports equipment and getting roaring drunk do not count #would’ve loved it if sjm allowed him to also be his own character in small ways #or explored the affection between him and the ic as family #anti acomaf #anti sjm #sjm is a terrible author #this is more pro rhys/ic? i just think sjm did all her characters dirty atp
