💪 Never again would she be weak

...never again, never again, never again

Happy Monday, my fellow Maasochist! Your weekly issue of ✨The Prythian Post✨ has winnowed its way to your inbox, and now it’s time to recap all things ACOTAR!

Last week, I announced TPP’s brand partnership with The Library Closet, an officially SJM-licensed merchandise store, and I wanted to show off the awesome Velaris shirt that I ordered:

How cute is this design!? 😍 The shirt itself is super comfy but a bit more fitted than pictured, so I would definitely recommend sizing up one or even two sizes if you want an oversized fit! (For reference, I’m 5’8” and got a medium)

As a bonus for shopping through my link, my code PRYTHIANPOST5OFF will be automatically applied to give you a $5 discount on your purchase.

Full transparency: I WILL receive a commission from any sale made through my link

SPOILER WARNING: This newsletter WILL contain spoilers for the entire ACOTAR series, so proceed at your own risk!

A Court of Memes & TikToks 📸

This week’s meme goes out to the High Lord of the Night Court, who isn’t afraid to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants 😅

LMAO where’s the lie? 🤣 Rhysand gives exactly zero f***s, especially when it comes to empowering his Feyre darling.

This meme also makes me think of the scene during the High Lords meeting where Feyre uses a combination of her powers to attack Beron, and afterward, Helion says, “No wonder you made her High Lady” to which Rhys responds, “I made her High Lady because I love her. Her power was the last thing I considered.” 

BE STILL MY HEART 😭

The TikTok of the week is dedicated to one of the most underrated friendships within the series- Amren and Nesta 😈

This never fails to crack me up no matter how many times I watch it 🤣 I wish so badly that Sarah would give us more scenes with just the two of them because their banter is top notch 😆

Also, I feel like Jenna Ortega as Amren and Aubrey Plaza as Nesta would actually be great fancast options!

A Court of Trivia & Quizzes ❓

ICYMI: The Prythian Post and ACOTAR Fandom Facebook Page aren’t my only projects! I also run a website called Maasversity, which features tons of tricky trivia quizzes based on specific details and characters from the series 📚

This week’s trivia question is part of the character quiz: How Well Do You Know the Most Handsome High Lord Rhysand?

Which of these is NOT a nickname Rhysand receives throughout the series?

  • Darkness Eternal

  • Night Triumphant

  • Death Incarnate

  • Lord of Night

Find out the correct answer (and take the full-length quiz) here 👇

A Court of Quotes & Sayings 📖

One of the very best things about the ACOTAR series is the abundance of beautiful quotes and relatable sayings. From heartwarming to heartbreaking, SJM never fails to pack a punch with her words 👊

For this week’s issue of TPP, I chose my favorite Nesta quote:

Never again. Never again would she be weak. Never again would she be at someone’s mercy. Never again would she fail. Never again, never again, never again.

A Court of Silver Flames, Chapter 38

This quote is so fierce and empowering that I feel like every single reader could connect to it on some level. I know this reader attempts to adopt Nesta’s never again mentality as much as possible 🙋‍♀️

If this quote holds a special place in your heart, feel free to save and share this week’s graphic however you’d like!

A Court of Fanart & Fanfiction ✍️

This week’s fanart selection is a gorgeous portrait of Feyre at Starfall

🎨: @mftfernandez

How stunning is our High Lady!? 🤩 I’m absolutely living for all the beautiful details within this piece!

This lovely artwork was created by the super-talented @mftfernandez who has SO MANY wonderful pieces of ACOTAR fanart on her IG page.

*If you reshare any artwork, PLEASE credit the artist. They work so hard and deserve all the recognition!*

This week’s fanfiction selection is a canon divergence piece about what may have happened had Mor not gotten to Feyre in time after Tamlin locks her in his manor.

Written from Rhys’s POV, this one-chapter story details a different outcome to the actual events of ACOMAF but still delivers a HEA (and don’t worry- Tamlin is still the bad guy 😅)

Title: lay yourself out, pick yourself up

Author: VivereLibri

Summary: Tamlin locks Feyre in, she loses control, Mor doesn't get there fast enough, and now all of the High Lords of Prythian feel something stirring. Rhysand knows he might be the only person able to help Feyre, but how can he get to her?

*Here is a great article that details exactly how to download the AO3 files and transfer them to your Kindle for easier reading*

A Court of Polls & Opinions 📊

Last but not least, our poll of the week!

Before we get to it, here are the results of last week’s poll:

This was our closest poll yet, with the House of Wind beating out the Townhouse by just four votes!

Of all the comments I received from those who voted for the HOW, the most resounding reason was because of the view and its excellent taste in smutty books 😂

Week Four Poll:

*As always- feel free to message me with any ideas you have for future polls. I’m always open to suggestions!

That’s all for this edition of The Prythian Post
