A Court of Memes & TikToks 📸
The meme of the week is dedicated to the most handsome High Lord and his secret silly side 😜
📸: @zeythedreamer
This is equal parts accurate and adorable 🥹 The fact that Rhysand can be his true self with Feyre is everything!
And if you have been following my ACOTAR Fandom Facebook Page for a while, you know that I absolutely love Rhys as Toothless memes 😂
This week’s TikTok goes out to our favorite fox boy and his unfortunate luck in love (and life) 😭
🎥: @itsthesuriel
Ugh, this poor male deserves his happily ever after and I will remain utterly heartbroken until it happens (looking at you, Sarah 👀)
I’ll be honest and say that I don’t actually have an opinion on who he ends up with, I just need my sweet Lucien to be showered in love and affection 🦊🧡
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 Gallant General Cassian?
Which of these is NOT one of those names The Bone Carver calls Cassian when they visit the prison?
Prince of Bastards
Lord in Good Deeds
Warrior-heart
Lord of Bloodshed
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 Morrigan quote:
There are good days and hard days for me—even now. Don’t let the hard days win.
Mor’s message, especially the last line, hit me so hard the first time I read ACOMAF, and I still get chills every time I see it quoted. “Don’t let the hard days win” is definitely a mantra I think we all try to live by 🙏
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 pick is dedicated to our leading lady Feyre and her painted dresser drawers 🎨
📸: @bethgilbert_art
I cannot get over the level of detail that was put into this piece- it’s absolutely stunning! I especially love the bottom drawer 🤩
This incredible artwork was created by the insanely talented @bethgilbert_art and is available for purchase on her shop ElvenwoodDesign.
*If you reshare any artwork, PLEASE credit the artist. They work so hard and deserve all the recognition!*
This week’s fanfiction is a spin on a scene that we all know and love… THE INN! 😈
Except this time, instead of Feyre saying she wants a distraction, she answers Rhys’s question by simply saying “you”…
Spoiler alert: He delivers 🥵
Title: You
Author: mmvalentine
Summary: An alternative inn scene (from ACOMAF) where Rhysand asks Feyre what she wants and Feyre replies with 'you' instead of 'I want a distraction'
*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:
Ok, I guess I should have seen that one coming 😆 But I was curious to see if there was anyone who may prefer another court’s holiday over Starfall (shout out to the 11 people who did!)
Week Six Poll:
*As always- feel free to message me with any ideas you have for future polls. I’m always open to suggestions!
