#just to be clear lmao

wondering whether elain is rejecting the bond so hard because she feels like she’s had a glimpse of true love with her engagement, with a man picking her over nesta or feyre, feeling what she sees as genuine desire from az, and being distressed by the notion that lucien is only expressing something that has been thrust upon them, or that he is trying manufacture a relationship out of something he may not want, that he may feel stuck to her.

idk man help they just seem to grimace at each other and i hope sjm doesn’t just have her flat out reject it even tho i think that’s what will happen
