jealous, feyre?

🌙 welcome back to episode 4 of solstice rising, an acotar companion pod! I am on page 440 of  a court of mist and fury (acomf) and we are reflecting back on feyre and rhys’s time at the summer court and the evolving state of their relationship. we focus on the barge dinner and how envy forces feyre to confront her feelings for rhys, which although painful also jolts her back to life.  

🤍 highlights of this episode: 

♟️ the slow-burn dynamic between feyre and rhys, and how they hold romantic tension without needing it to be more — like they are both on the same page about not being ready for that and knowing that the other isn’t either. 

✨what it means, in our world, to be a person without magic or power… 

🖤 feyre being forced to reckon with her feelings for rhys when spurred by envy. 

🌙 the relationship between feyre and rhys as a reparative space of honesty, consistency and mutual recognition, where truth replaces fracture and miscommunication.
