      I definitely think Adolin deserves better. He deserves an equal partner. All he does is care for everyone around him, go be a boss in battle, come back to take care of everyone. I would love to see him with a partner that takes care of him too.

    I really do not care for Shallan and Adolin. I don’t get it. It feels forced not natural. And I feel like Adolin is constantly taking care of everyone around him and it would have been nice for him to end up with someone who who was a better partner and support instead of always needing to be taken care of. But Adolin’s also my favorite and Shallan is not so I’m probably biased.

    Love triangles are only triangles if ALL the sides touch. Otherwise it's just a 'eventually-settle-with', with pointless side-plots.🤷

      @jaginaiaelectrizs6341 3 месяца назад +1

      Technically, this is the absolute opposite of the truth, since a love triangle is a very specific trope / type of literary tool or narrative device-and it could be argued that a love triangle is no longer even a love triangle at all anymore if it goes equally all three ways.
      Technically, a love triangle is three characters and there is some kind of a choice to be made between equally valid possible options that if done right isn't merely settling for anything in the end, it's typically meant to be figuring out which option would be settling and then NOT settling-like realizing what they really want/need versus what they thought they wanted/needed, or dependable stability versus whirlwind adventure, or something familiar and complacent versus something unfamiliar but enriching; and the sideplots should all very much have a purpose, or an important role along the way progressing the character and their relationship from point A to point Z and/or in establishing precisely why or how the choice they make in the end was the best choice or at least why it was the choice that they made for themself irregardless.
      If it's a hinged/V-shaped poly!ship, it's not really a love triangle because there is no torn between multiple options for various (ideally thematic) reasons, it's kinda just happily having your cake and eating it too and more power to you!.
      And if it's a full on poly!tri-way/throuple kinda ship, then it's also not really a love triangle for basically the same reason unless there is some risk of one pairing/ship/ or the other possibly not lasting for keeps and/or getting outshined somehow by another in a way that is ultimately going to result in some kind of a choice or another being made.
      But it depends if you're coming at things from a literary trope type angle, or from a poly!ship terms and definitions type angle instead. Lol

    I've only read RoW once so far, but the one time I read that one you didn't say at the start? Not a fan. The scene made me feel icky. The female character involved is one that both started in a place where I can relate to her a lot but also stalled in terms of character growth, and the way she thought about him sticks with me as a very "I'm not actually into him, but he's useful" vibe. Maybe upon my upcoming re-read, that will change. As things stand in my memory, however, that's the one I disagree with the most.

      sorry, just want to confirm if you’re referring to Jasnah and Wit? There seems to be agreement in the fandom that she’s asexual, so maybe that feeling of “I’m not into him” that you noticed is more in reference to that, but maybe not as negative?

      Yes! I'm also ace, which is part of the reason why I saw myself in her. It's absolutely understandable that she's attracted to his intelligence, but the little bit we've seen didn't sell me on the ship itself. TBH, I think it's more to do with how she seems to be with him more for the information she can get from him than for any other reason, and that's what bothered me the most. I'll go into the next book with an open mind, though. I'm hoping there's some good development.
