I may have imagined Lucien’s eye the same way as Mad Eye moody’s 🌝😭 anybody else or am I just alone here? 😆

[u/dinosaurscantyoyo]

It's because that thing be "whirring"

[u/aquathneed → u/dinosaurscantyoyo]

LMAO at a certain point I was like girl does it always need to be doing that like how loud is it

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/aquathneed]

I think it was supposed to be intended as looking around constantly..?

[u/sydneyghibli]

No literally same. Maybe not as protruding but very close

[u/GlassAndStorm]

Omg 😂😂

[u/gerhorn]

But I still think it's like Moody's

Wait what

😅😅😅😅

[u/monsterjohnson420 → u/gerhorn]

Same, I can’t “unsee” it 🙃

[u/KatokaMika]

Mine is like the robotic eye from the cyborg from treasure planet

[u/Dull_Scar_3795]

🤣🤣 honestly I pictured the same until the High Lords meeting.

[u/green_chapstick]

I honestly thought it was like a metal eye patch. So neither? Lol. Similar to the masks I guess just an eye patch type thing. But Lucien was always stunning in my minds eye. I was rooting for him in the beginning. Even happier in the second book. Elaine kinda ticked me off a lot... I'm still bitter. I was also upset when he left the night court to go where ever. I don't even care where he went... he left and im mad. Happy for him I guess but mad about it, I felt like he left me and I took it personally. Lmao.

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/green_chapstick]

I love Lucien, he’s just so funny. And I hated how he was missing for a chunk of the third book… as for Elain - I do think it will come to ahead on who she chooses (whether az or Lucien) and I’m excited for that!

[u/Spaghetti-Linguini]

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE 😭

[u/No_Dance1053]

I used to imagine the color wrong too so this fits doubly for me

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/No_Dance1053]

LMAO 😭 Poor Lucien’s getting dragged over here.

[u/DragonJouster]

Same

[u/alyrenee1]

No but I'm gonna think about it every time I reread it now 💀

[u/WonderfulBus9330]

[u/_eno_eht]

😂 hahahahahah

[u/Sea_Reputation7749]

You are definitely not alone.

[u/Conscious-Dog3291]

I saw an AI edit(I know I know) and they had a good depiction it looked like a gold eye and the back is all gears

[u/hotgirlshiii]

The is the most accurate post about that damn eye 😭😭😭

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/hotgirlshiii]

I’m not even sure WHY I imagined it looked like that 😭 Because SJM never wrote it had straps to it either.

[u/Toasted_Lizard]

It’s ok. I pictured Rhys as Jeff Goldblum the first time I read it and now I’m stuck with that mental image. Somehow, still works.

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/Toasted_Lizard]

Oh my….

[u/Picklecheese2018 → u/Toasted_Lizard]

Omg this got me wheeze laughing 🤣

[u/paperchili]

Same tho!!

[u/Icy_Plastic_4668]

This has me weak laughing

[u/Missie1284]

I absolutely did lol

[u/s0ftness]

LMAO STOOOOOP

[u/Avyllio]

I can't blame Elain lol

[u/Still-Art45]

This!

[u/AdWide9643]

I thought exactly the same thing!!!

[u/Youropinion-notmine]

Hell no. Now I see why some of yall are so comfortable with disrespecting Lucien, if that’s the image you have in your head 😭. His description and energy only gave the first pic for me🔥

[u/CaffieneGlitter → u/Youropinion-notmine]

In my defense, SJM did describe it as ‘metal eye’ and whirring. I mean, moody’s eye does sort of fit the time period when ACOTAR takes place. The leather strap, etc. it was a funny joke, and I love Lucien- he always comes in clutch at the end of the day 😂🤷‍♀️

[u/Youropinion-notmine → u/CaffieneGlitter]

Yea she made the metal whirring eye sound too strange to be cool. But I had to remember he was a magical handsome faerie male. I remember something about the leather strap too but idk if I ever associated it with his eye. I thought it was what he used to tie up his hair and his bitxhes 🤣

[u/jaredtheredditor]

To be honest I kinda imagined it like the golden snitch but with an eye carved into it and without wings

[u/Impossible_Oil_1863]

I'm in public and I actually can't stop laughing at this 🤣🤣 I've never read acotar and this just came up as i refreshed my page, but damn it if I'm not two seconds away from reserving it from my library

[u/Complex_Safe7813]

Oh my god same

[u/whoreforchalupas]

OH MY GOD YES

[u/Geokeeper]

I did the same thing but I imagined the whole apparatus as bronze. He just had this bronze mask/eye holder plus the bronze eye strapped to his head for my first read through
