Nesta Archeron.

I’m so existed for her book! can’t wait to read her story

ig: arttbarbie

Emorie♡

I really want them to be together

ig:barb.arts

In the short time that Nesta has known Cassian she has seen him literally on deaths door step like 3 times. She has seen him in pain countless other times. She avoids him because she doesn’t want to be first in the long line of people waiting to get the news that he died. She is trying to protect herself.

Now love is worth the risk but she doesn’t know that yet

So I’m not super in to the Nesta and Azriel best buddies for forever relationship BUT

I do love the idea of them having conversations about and connecting through the darkness and the shadows they both deal with on the regular. That is where I think the mutual respect will come from

I don’t like going to parties, I hate public speaking, talking about myself gives me hives, I would throw myself in front of the bullet for those that I love, my family misunderstands me, it’s hard to “get” me, I hide my soft feelings behind a suit if armor made or rude remarks, there is definitely some sexual frustration and tension in my life, I find it hard to start a fire, I never want to go to the gym and train, and yeah I love a good romance novel.

Oh crap. I AM NESTA

I have often thought that Nesta’s power isn’t death

First, because Feyre is convinced it is death. And When has Feyre ever been known to truly get her sister?

Second, it was said at one point that Nesta took from the cauldron everything it had taken from her. It is assumed she got the death powers because it had killed her but in reality the cauldron was also giving her life, a new life.

Third, I think often because if Nesta’s bluntness and brutality in conversation it is thought that she is similar to death. But no we know she is sensitive and caring behind her outer wall. She is life and creation more than death and killing

Fourth, just because the bone carver heard of Nests dosent mean she is death. She could be deaths greatest enemy - life

Nesta is life she is creation she is a new beginning

So in ACOFAS Nesta is still clinging to her character of being clean, holding herself up, and having pride.

Yet

In the flash forward to ACOSF She is apparently filthy. Has dirty clothes, dirty apartment, never changes her sheets, show up to the IC summoning looking and smelling gross.

WTF either something major happened (probably the same thing that broke up her friendship with Amren) or SJMaas forgot her characterizations and book cannons.

Honestly could go either way

So like if we bought the ebook we get it at midnight, right? Like that was the whole point, right? Till Feb 16th at 12:00am ACOSF we have a date!

I freaking love this scene. It shows why I can’t stand Feyre at all! Her sister is telling her how uncomfortable she feels, how she needs them to leave. And Feyre dismisses it like 3 times. She doesn’t believe Nesta untill Cassian starts taking her seriously. She doubted her te whole time Come on Feyre, she deserves better. You treat her like Tamlin treated you. Very bad, very, very bad.

At the Illyrian camps Nesta is going to be cool as a cat. She will get on with life and keep going. Cassian on the other hand is good to be on edge the whole time. Just lusting after her. Don’t get me wrong Nesta wants him too but she knows how to handle it. Cassian is going to be a mess

I almost don’t want Nesta to heal at that Illyrian camps because you know. You just know, Feyre is gonna take all the credit.

I want Nesta to get better I want her to heal, but when she does you can bet Feyre will have had nothing to do with it. The end

My pre-order for ACOSF on amazon just got cancelled. What does this mean ????!

AM I ALONE IN THIS

I love Nesta. I do but to be honest is she doesn’t learn to communicate and get along with people on a general level she is going to have a pretty miserable future.

I say this because she needs more and you can tell she wants more deep down. She wants love. She wants family.

Hopefully this new book will give her the space from the IC she needs to heal and make friends. This will allow her to see healthy communication and give her a desire to get along with people.

I don’t want her to be miserable and that is where she is right now

I Voted

For NESTA to get the happiness she needs in ACOSF.

Normalize This…

It’s ok to hate the main character and consequently most of the series but still love it for the side character that carries the story emotionally and makes it relatable because they are not perfect and neither are you.

Nesta. Nesta. NESTA

Nessian Head Cannon

Even when depressed Nesta keeps all the newspaper clippings or updates on what the heck Cassian is up to.

Kind of like Nathan and Haley from OTH

A COVER REVEAL WON’T MAKE ME FORGET THAT THE RELEASE DATE GOT PUSHED BACK

Dang this new book better come out before I am persuaded by all the anti’s on tumblr to hate the whole fandom

ACOSF I’m looking at you

People! Please comment with your favorite Nessian moment!!! I need some good nessian crap to get me through this week. I’ll start it off

My favorite Nessian moment is….

Right before the meeting of the high lords when Nesta and Cas talk as everyone is leaving. All of it! How she changed her mind to be more active in the war and didn’t want to be a coward. How he was so excited to see her. How they communicated by understanding and not so much words. I love that Nesta was vulnerable and safe and Cas saw that and her. I loved it!!!

Nesta is probably the most relatable character in the ACOTAR universe

Feel free to add to this!

List of Special Nesta Moments

Moments that hunt at Nesta being more aka more powerful, not fae, future queen of something

- Tamlin’s fae magic couldn’t trick Nesta’s mind. She saw right through it all ACOTAR

- Nests could tell when Feyre went into Lucien’s mind and Feyre had know idea how she knew ACOWAR

- Devon and all the Illyrian commanders were freaked out by her (and they live in the dangerous mountains) ACOWAR

- the Bone Carver spoke about how she is acient and yet she is newly born ACOWAR

Proof that Elaine the seer had a vision about last battle of ACOWAR

1.Elaine has been having visions and has mentioning them to people in her. Kirk when she says to Nests “twin ravens are coming” then Nests gets attached by the king’s 2 ravens

2. Elaine mentions to Cassian that he would die with broken wings and bones. While eating breakfast she says to Cassian “he snapped your wings, broke your bones” cassian replied saying “it will take more than that to kill me.” Elaine then tells him “no it will not”. It’s like she has seen it right?!

3.In battle with the king Cassian breaks his bones and his wings and is about to die! “Not twenty feet away, Cassian was on the ground. Wings—snapped in spots. Blood leaking from them. Bone jutted from his thigh.”

4. Cassian and Nesta are literally about to be killed by the king when out of nowhere Elaine appears and saves them. How did she know where they where? How did she know they needed help? She saw them

5. This is the girl that was dizzy at the thought of war. She was a rose bloom in a muddy pin of horses. How did she muster the strength to get up go through the battle field, find her sister and Cassian, and then kill the king a man I’m sure Elaine fears. How did she do this???? She had seen it in a vision. She had seen Cassian and Nesta dying and knew they needed her. Only that would have brought her to that field ready to use the sword and stab the king.

“My sisters ate breakfast with Rhys and me, Azriel gone to wherever he’d taken the Attor. Cassian had flown off to join him the moment we returned. He’d given Nesta a mocking bow, and she’d given him a vulgar gesture I hadn’t realised she knew how to make.” Acomaf, Chapter 28, page 273.

Popping in real quick to post this for you all before leaving again from fear of acosf being spoiled! I’m trying out a new art style, which is this detailed linart (over the next couple of days before acosf release, I’ll try out colouring techniques and will post the results).

I have an Instagram now for my art, @bec_speight.art - so feel free to check it out, give it a like and follow also I’ve uploaded a time lapse reel of this and my Cassian piece on Instagram if that interests you

My fan art of Bryce ❤️

For my fellow Taylor Swift and Sarah J. Maas fans. Since it’s A Court of Silver Flames eve, here’s a thread of Taylor Swift lyrics that fit ACOTAR characters and ships.

Feyre Archeron / The Archer: I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost, The room is on fire, invisible smoke, And all of my heroes die all alone, Help me hold onto you

Rhysand / Peace: I never had the courage of my convictions, As long as danger is near, And it’s just around the corner, darling, ‘Cause it lives in me, No, I could never give you peace

Starfall Feysand / Enchanted: This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go, I’m wonder struck, blushing all the way home, I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew, I was enchanted to meet you

Feyre and Tamlin / exile: I never learned to read your mind (never learned to read my mind), I couldn’t turn things around (you never turned things around), 'Cause you never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)

The ACOMAF wedding scene / Speak Now: Don’t say yes, run away now, I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door, Don’t wait, or say a single vow, You need to hear me out, And they said speak now

Nesta Archeron / The Man: And I’m so sick of them coming at me again, 'Cause if I was a man, then I’d be the man

Elain Archeron / Breathe: And we know it’s never simple, never easy, Never a clean break, no one here to save me

Cassian / State of Grace: And I never saw you coming, And I’ll never be the same, You come around and the armor falls, Pierce the room like a cannon ball, Now all we know, is don’t let go

Nessian / Treacherous: And I’d be smart to walk away, But you’re quicksand, This slope is treacherous, This path is reckless, This slope is treacherous, And I-I-I like it

Azriel / Beautiful Ghosts: So I watch from the dark, wait for my life to start, With no beauty in my memory

Mor / ME!: I promise that you’ll never find another like ME!, I’m the only one of me, Baby, that’s the fun of me

Amren / Ready for It?: Knew I was a robber first time that he saw me, Stealing hearts and running off and never sayin’ sorry, But if I’m a thief, then he can join the heist

Lucien / I Know Places: They are the hunters, we are the foxes and we run, Baby, I know places we won’t be found, And they’ll be chasing their tails trying to track us down, 'Cause I, I know places we can hide

Elriel / gold rush: 'Cause I don’t like a gold rush, gold rush, I don’t like anticipatin’ my face in a red flush

Elucien / invisible string: And isn’t it just so pretty to think, All along there was some
Invisible string, Tying you to me?

@taylorswift@taylornation@worldofsarahjmaas@bloomsburybooks-blog-blog

i’ve been trying to decide if i ship elain with azriel or lucien since acowar but i haven’t been able to come to a decision.

i finished acosf yesterday and i realised why:

it’s literally because elain is so devoid of personality, character development and any notion of a storyline that i genuinely couldn’t care less.

a fucking house has had more character growth than her ?????

someone needs to tell SJM that:

• branding

• growling

• impaling

• + all her other weird ass terminology

is NOT sexy but is in fact rather disturbing

Nesta in ACOSF if she’d gained weight and not lost it, and no — she wouldn’t lose it by the end of the book! Just wish more authors would let their traumatized characters gain weight. If I see any fat phobia on this post, you’re getting blocked

A few things from SJM live 12/27:

She wrote a threesome for ACOSF but then deleted it because she didn’t think she could face her family after it because it was so dirty. But she also said that it would have pulled emotional strings for those characters in ways that she didn’t want to deal with the consequences of. Only SJM and her editor only know about who is in it. Not even Josh. She promises that “if a Meteor was going to strike us (or Donald Trump and his goons stage a coup)”, she will release the scene.

She said she still has a lot she wants to tell in the ToG world. She also has about 60 pages of Aelin/Rowen scenes from Heir of fire that didn’t make it in the book. For instance, she wrote the scene where Maeve sends Rowan (over all the rest of the cadre) to train Aelin. Also, in the end of HoF, when they are in the cold pool after Aelin tells Rowan her whole story, she wrote a sexy scene that didn’t make it in there:

Josh: How is a cold pool sexy?
SJM:Nipples
Josh: Sure but the guy gets shrinkage
SJM:Rowan would never have shrinkage
Josh: Rowans like a turtle

There was a lot of talk about farts.
