Just a little bit of a passionate Elucien for you!
Okay so I’ve had the Gwynriel head canon for a while and I need to share it.
Imagine it’s “Family Dinner” for the IC and gang and they’re down at the River House
I mean everyone is there, including Lucien and Varian
(for the sake of the story and the fact that I’m a huge Elain/Lucien shipper let’s say they are together at this point)
They’re all eating and all of a sudden Feyre turns to Azriel
She then says “Hey Azriel, there is this girl in my art class”
(at this point the rest of the table shuts up real quick)
She then, with the help of Rhys, tells him all about this girl who they think is just perfect for him
But what no one at the table knows is that he’s been seeing Gwyn for almost a year (they swear they didn’t mean to make it a secret, it just kinda happened)
And Azriel has to tell them “she sounds great but I’m actually already seeing someone”
Dead silence
Then the room ERUPTS
(Let’s remember, Azriel only had feelings for Mor for 500 years, then another women who was unavailable. And this friend group also has absolutely no concept of privacy, so this would be big news.)
Cassian and Rhys are trying to be calm but they are effectively losing their minds
Mor is just grinning and hammering him with questions
As is Feyre
He eventually agrees to bring her to Family Dinner™️ the next time they all get together
So the next day he tells Gwyn
She is understandably very nervous, but excited to officially meet everyone
(Of course she already knows Nesta and Cassian, and she’s met Mor a few times. She met the rest of his family very briefly at Nesta and Cassian’s mating ceremony but that’s it.)
She then insists they have to go shopping so she can find something to wear, since all she has is her priestess robes and training leathers, she also has that dress she wore to Nesta’s mating ceremony but she’s meeting her partner’s family, it’s a special occasion
And it’s not like she can go with Nesta or Emerie without raising alarm bells
So Azriel goes with her
And she has to look perfect, she insists she can’t overdress and she certainly can’t underdress, not when she’ll be dining with the High Lord, High Lady, and the Morrigan
So she eventually finds this dress that she thinks is just perfect
She tries it on and shows Azriel and he is blown away
“You look so beautiful Gwyn”
He says a bunch of other cute shit
Needless to say she buys it and heads back to the House of Wind with Azriel
The day of the dinner, Gwyn is surprisingly calm
Azriel on the other hand is freaking out
I mean he is so nervous
He knows he is in love with Gwyn, the way he feels about her doesn’t even come close to how he felt about Mor or Elain
And she’s about to meet his family
When they get to the River House, they’re the last to arrive
They stand outside together for a moment, Gwyn can tell he’s nervous
She comforts him somehow idk
They walk in, hand-in-hand and are greeted by a grinning Rhys and Cassian standing in the entry way (á la Cassian and Azriel meeting Feyre in ACOMAF)
And Cassian busts out laughing
Rhys just stares, eyes wide
Once Cassian recovers, he says “Oh Nesta is gonna be so pissed I found out before she did”
Rhys, ever the gentleman, steps forward and shakes Gwyn’s hand, introducing himself
They chat for a few minutes before heading into the living room, where everyone else is
Nesta is the first to see them
She looks right at Gwyn and says “oh you bitch”
After somewhat awkwardly introducing Gwyn to everyone, they all sit down for dinner
The group grills Gwyn with questions
They chill out after Gwyn says something that has Azriel burst out laughing
Long story short they all end up loving her and are very happy for the couple
And if they notice his shadows are more lively around her, they don’t say anything
I have so many Gwynriel headcanons so let me know if anyone wants more
I don’t care who the next ACOTAR romantic pairing is I swear if I don’t get a WELL THOUGHT OUT AND COOKED MATING MEAL….
I’m gonna freaking lose it
I’m currently watching the Swifties use their master deciphering skills to try and determine if SJM’s insta post is more elriel or elucien coded
(Guilty as sin) what kind of vibe is it giving???
My favorite thing is when the ACOTAR/TOG/CC men look at their mates for the first time and describe them as the most beautiful woman they’ve ever seen
When I first joined Acotar tumblr I followed ALL of the tags because I wanted the most content. Now my feed is a war of ships and pros and antis.
I’m here for the drama tho.
Booboo Stewart- Lucien
Age- 29
Hear me out... he'd dye his hair. Or wear a wig. He may not look like the fanarts that people are used to, but Booboo Stewart would fit Lucien's character really well. His charisma is off the charts. Have you seen his smile? From playing Seth in Twilight to Jay in Descendants, he often becomes a fan favorite. This would be no different. He would be exceptional playing our clever Spring Court Emissary.
