We canโt wait to read Elain and Lucienโs love story. I know Sarah is going to give us so much tension, growth, and healing like she promised. Iโm ready for their slow burn to turn into a wild fire that can no longer be contained.

Ugly crying ๐ญ๐ซถ love love love Gwyn
I LOVE it when artists depict a very clear dynamic between lovers, so much so that I could literally ship that couple without even knowing them. I hope Iโve managed to draw enough of the kind of dynamic I envision for Elucien. Itโs not the full scope of what I imagine them to be like, but certainly a chunk of it!
And alsoโฆ I heard that the people who voice Elain and Lucien both ship Elucien. If thatโs true, Iโm gonna scream. You know how the voice actor of Zuko made a fan audio in which Zuko confesses his love for Katara? I need something like this for Elucien ๐ญ

okay so one of my favourite things about gwynriel is the fact that the two of them arenโt in love.
I adore the fact that they are just becoming friends at the end of ACOSF and thatโs so much space for them to grow both as individuals and eventually as lovers (maybe even mates๐)
The two of them have been tied to each others stories and personalities so many times in ACOSF.
During their first meeting Gwyn witnesses a side to Azriel he purposefully tries to keep hidden away. The darker more volatile side of him when he absolutely slaughters the Hybern soldiers. Despite this she is never scared or judges him for it. She accepts all these sides to him.
On the flip side, Azriel saw Gwyn in her most vulnerable moment, a horrific moment that she never should have gone through. But he never coddles her. He trains her, gives her advice, private lessons, looks at her with quiet admiration and encouragement as she becomes the first Valkyrie in 500 years, and trusts in her and her abilities during the Blood Rite.
Additionally thereโs all the little similarities between them.
Their competitive side which is high lighted in ACOSF, Gwyn wanting to wipe the smirk especially off of Azrielโs face, the way they both sing and find joy in music, and most importantly to me, the path of growth and self worth they both need to go on. Not to mention the way Azrielโs shadows sing and dance for not just their master, but for Gwyn as well.
The two of them have flirted once on page and is a moment that Nesta points out, but other than that the two have had friendly interactions, not romantic.
And I love that.
I love that weโll see them on paper go through all the stages of falling in love. The easy going banter in their friendship (as seen in the bonus chapter), the hesitation as they feel something more but are so worried to ruin a good thing, the confession weโll get when these two people who never believe they are worthy of love, heal together and find it in each other.
There are so many places where Gwyn and Azriel can go. So yeah, my favourite thing about Gwynriel is that theyโre not in love, because Iโll get to read their full journey of healing, acceptance, and love through their eyes, their POVโs, and in their book.
She was indeed very distracted.
