Elain's trauma is real and quite severe, yet it tends to receive far less analysis than Nesta's.
Nesta makes this very apparent. Her trauma manifests as rage, alcohol, sex, isolation, self-destruction, and anxiety attacks+

acabei de ver no tiktok um vídeo que fala que a primeira coisa que o az fala depois de resgatar a elain do acampamento de hybern eh “get these chains off her” pq ele sabia oq era ficar preso e isso acabou com meu dia
I think Elain understands Azriel better than the fandom realizes. The compliment about his scars, the headache powder, and the earplugs... it really stands out to me because these are things he doesn't say, yet she understands.
That would be your interpretation, because as you said Cassian asks him, and he replies, "It doesn't matter what I want," implying that whatever his partner chooses will be fine with him. He LITERALLY says, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT I WANT
GURL C'MON!!!
Da onde você tirou que ele não liga pra ter filhos quando não tem nada confirmado sobre isso? Cassian pergunta a Azriel se ele deseja ter um filho. Azriel responde: “Não importa o que eu quero.” Isso não confirma que ele queira ou não queira; apenas mostra que, naquele momento, ele considerava esse desejo impossível ou irrelevante.
You’ve been a total pain in the ass for so long going on about Az’s wings and Elain’s womb it’s actually hilarious that the things you care about most don't matter to Az at all he doesn't care about having kids if that's what his girl wants and he doesn't give a shit abouthiswing
TÃO FALANDO QUE SE O AZ PERDER AS ASAS OS FUTUROS FILHOS DELE VÃO NASCER SEM ASAS KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKKAKA
Será que o filho do Lucien vai nascer sem um olho? KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKKA
“elain is evil and she’s making azriel’s shadows disappear so he doesn’t suspect it” DEAD
“elain can’t have kids with wings and azriel won’t be with her cause that’s something that’s special to him” DEAD
“nuala and cerridwen are irrelevant” DEAD
I’m pretty sure Azriel’s shadows feed on pain or malice, because Azriel is the torturer he’s not exactly doing nice things for the Night Court so maybe it’s a way to keep them calm.
