Azriel: Allow me to introduce myself.

Azriel: My name is Azriel.

Azriel: So if any of you have anything else you’d like to say to my high lady, I will drag you outside and we will handle this Night Court Style.

Cassian: Can you keep a secret? 

Azriel: Do you know anything about my life? 

Cassian: No, I don't. Good point.

I realized then that the color of death, of sorrow, was white. The lack of color. Of vibrancy.

- A Court of Wings and Ruin, Sarah J Maas

I don't think Sarah J Maas paid attention in her physics class. "White, the lack of colour". Seriously? BLACK IS THE LACK OF COLOUR YOU DUMBASS.

Let's face it.

Nesta is a bitch. I don't care if she tried to cross the wall to save her sister. I don't care that she threw herself before Cassian in the war. She is too full of herself and way too insensitive to be liked by anybody. But if you have anything to say in her defense, feel free to reply. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Not the best but this is as good as I can get, for now. :p

Masterlist

Amren was waltzing down the streets of Velaris towards the rainbow, completely ready to order ask Feyre to paint something for her when she felt it. A shift in the world, nearly impossible to detect but she knew this feeling, it was what she felt when she'd fell through the folds of the universe itself and into this world. A slight tilt of the world, barely half a degree. Someone had just opened a portal straight into Prythian, maybe even straight into Velaris based off how easy the shift was to detect.

Amren looked up in time to see tear appear in the sky, and a female fall through. As the female fell she was franticly pressing her fingers to her shoulders and cursing when nothing happened. Amren wondered if she should save the female, she'd been in that situation a few centuries ago after all. But her magic was gone and she couldn’t do much other than watch. But 15 meters from the ground a parachute sprouted from her back and slowed her fall. The people were looking up now, at the female that floated down and landed among them. She was beautiful, like a dream. White hair, blue eyes ringed with gold, pointed ears and a climbing outfit that showed her body spectacularly.

The female looked around and spoke warily, “hello?” Her voice was soft and carried over the small crowd with the authority of a commander.

The fae around her had mixed reactions, some glowered while others smiled warmly. As Amren watched a male stepped forward. He had a sneer on his face as the female backed up, hands on the hilts of knives. Amren took a step forward, noticing the knives had a hole between the blade and hilt. Climbing knives that matched her outfit, what was this female doing?

“How did you get here? What do you want with this city?” The male started to advance on the female as she held her ground. The people were on high alert after the War and some had begun to get hostile. Amren recognized this particular male, Kian.

This was trouble especially since this female wasn’t backing down. Amren hesitated, she could save her without anyone dying.

As the male advanced and the female raised her knives, Amren stepped forward and spoke, “She is my assistant and was up there by my command testing out a new parachute so go back to your business and stay out of ours.”

Immediately everyone scattered and Amren grabbed the girl by the arm and led her away.

Guess she wasn’t going to Feyre’s studio after all.

Y/n’s POV- three hours earlier

Y/n grinned as her parents rode off to go have vacation that probably involved a lot little fun. She strapped on her gear as her older brother gave her a look and she grinned back at him, tipping her nonexistent hat. Hopping on a horse Y/n rode to the only mountain she hadn’t climbed yet. It was taller than she could see and the rock was smoother than all the others. This was the final test, the final self imposed challenge. There was already a rope at her feet that she’d begged her dad to fly up to the top. He’d agreed but only if she didn’t rush it. (Have you all guessed who her parents are yet?)

She grabbed the rope, testing its strength before pulling out her favorite climbing knife and beginning the ascent. Around half way up, the first problem occurred, she’d skipped a rest stop because she was feeling energetic. But now her body was at its limit, it seemed this particular stretch between stops was longer than the others. Y/n looked around trying not to panic, all around her smooth stone with no crevice’s to be seen. She glanced down and saw the spot she’d skipped 100 meters below. She tilted her head back and looked up, above her another 75 meters was the next stop. Spewing out a few colorful words her mother would have been proud of she used one hand to scrawl a quick note to her parents and siblings before pinning it to the rope with a small pocket knife. Using the rest of her strength she hauled her body up another 5 meters, cursing when her left foot slipped.

Then her right foot.

Now dangling in mid air she kicked at the rock to try to anchor her feet. But with the force of the kick her right hand lost it’s grip on the knife she’d imbedded into the rock. Cursing the gods and herself, she was suddenly glad of the brutal training she and her brothers had endured. Managing to get her feedback anchored and her hand back on the hilt of her knife she decided it wasn’t possible to continue for now.

If there was one thing her uncle Fenrys had taught her it was to know your body’s limits and how far to push. She’d already pushed herself farther than she could endure and if she pushed any farther she wouldn’t make it. So y/n pulled out her knife and let her body drop.

Pushing at the shoulder pads that activated the parachute she desperately searched for a good place to land.

But she never got the chance.

A flash of light sparked and she fell through what looked like a rip in the world. As y/n fell she cursed every deity she knew, just her fucking luck. One of the cuts through worlds right here! How many times had the creature that was made of nightmares gone back and fourth through the worlds?

Time to worry about that later.

As she fell for what seemed like forever she would occasionally glimpsed people laughing in a city or two men brawling with a crowd cheering them on. Once she even glimpsed a black dragon soaring through the air with a navy blue one.

After a glimpse of a women in blue playing with fire like her mother she jolted as she felt herself cross into a different world. Holding her breath she fell through puffs of clouds until a city came into view. She knew it was going to be hard to go back but she could try if she survived. Just climb another mountain and jump right?

As she fell she took in the sprawling city below, it was beautiful, more beautiful than anything she’d ever seen before. Spectacular buildings with a sparkling river running through the city. On one side of the river, large buildings with many windows and clocks, the other smaller buildings with all the surfaces colored. But what stood out the most was the rainbow in the midst of the city.

Speaking of the city, the ground was approaching terrifyingly fast and Y/n hurriedly tried to activate her parachute. With barely 20 meters to the ground it activated and her fall slowed to a more bearable speed.

When she landed there was already a large group of fae staring at her like she’d just come in from another world. Which she had. She eyed the people carefully, noting the mix of hostile and welcoming faces.

“Hello?”

They all stared at her as if she’d spoken a different language which she was pretty sure she hadn’t but then some smiled and other glowered. A moment of confusion and silence later a muscular male stepped forward.

Y/n could tell this male wanted a fight, she placed her hands on her climbing knives. Not ideal weapons for fighting but better than nothing. “How did you get here? What do you want with this city?”

The male continued advancing and Y/n drew her knives. She wasn’t sure how she’d gotten here and she certainly didn’t want to be here but she doubted this male was going to believe her.

Suddenly a petite female stepped forward with authority and spoke.“She is my assistant and was up there by my command testing out a new parachute so go back to your business and stay out of ours.”

Y/n eyed the female with suspicion before sliding one knife back in its sheath. If this female had the power to make that crowd scatter with just a few well placed words, she was definitely dangerous. The female grabbed her by the arm and pushed a path through the bustling city.

Y/n opened her mouth, “who-”

“Quiet,” snapped the female looking back at her and Y/n reeled back slightly at the unsettling silver eyes.

But she followed the female as she had aced her from trouble and maybe had a way to get back to her world that didn’t involve falling off another cliff.

Might be a little much to hope for though.

That wasn’t the greatest but ok, please vote below

Guessed who readers parents are yet?

I have the feeling that Rhys and Gwyn are going to have a very strong bond but they will have a huge fight regarding Azriel.

I have the feeling that Gwyn is going to realize how much the IC ignores and dumps the worst jobs on him (and she is also going to realize that he accepts those jobs because he is scared that if he says no, then he'll be rejected and forgotten) and she is going to be furious about it.

I hope it happens after Azriel comes back from a mission hurt, I hope Gwyn hears one of them say "He always does this kind of stuff", I hope she screams and shouts at them how awful they are to him and how they don't deserve him .

I hope Rhys gets riled up and then proceeds to go on a full on word battle with an acolyte, I hope Gwyn won't hold back and I hope she makes the IC realize that they are exploiting Azriel and using them.

I hope it hurts them.

Once upon a time, in Velaris...

*Rhys stretching in the morning, his eyes set on the city, his hands on his hips*: How shall I stop Azriel from sleeping with Elain today?

So I've read A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas and became kinda obssessed with it and that's why I just had to draw my favourite High Lord of the Court of Night 🌌

“And that time, I pushed a thought back. Of the night sky—of the image that brought me joy when I needed it most. Open night sky, stars, and the moon. I didn’t know if it was received, but I tried, anyway.” - Rhysand, A Court of Mist and Fury 🌠

“He thinks he'll be remembered as the villain in the story. But I forgot to tell him that the villain is usually the person who locks up the maiden and throws away the key. He was the one who let me out.” - Feyre, A Court of Mist and Fury 🖤

Can't wait for the release of A Court of Silver Flames🔥

"Night Triumphant - and the Stars Eternal. If he was the sweet, terrifying darkness, I was the glittering light that only his shadows could make clear." - Feyre, A Court of Wings and Ruin ✨🌌

I’ve just seen this TikTok. You can’t tell me this isn’t Feyre’s room in ACOMAF.

This is exactly how I imagined it.🙀

I’ve been reading acowar and I’ve realized something that I’d never paid much attention to before. And I have a theory about the next book.

So, you know how a lot of people hates Elain for not giving Lucien a chance. I have realized that Elain started to put a distance between her and Lucien after this scene below.

In this scene we see Lucien stepping up to be the one to go to the human lands to find Vassa. And right after this, we see Feyre sensing something different about the way Elain looks at Lucien (As if Elain had seen something).

Before this scene she would talk and treat him nicely (Nothing special for him but just the way she treats everyone).

After this scene, she stars acting as though she knows something about him that no one else does.

So what if Elain kept her distance with Lucien because she had seen Lucien and Vassa’s future -where they end up together. And since she knows they are to be together at the end, she thought if she stayed away from him, she would save him from a mistake and let him be with the person he is destined to be.

So, the reason she was so uncomfortable around him is because -just like how Mor felt with Az- she’d seen that he was a nice person and didn’t want to disappoint him.

This is my very first theory post so let me know about your ideas.🤍

(And be nice)

Rhys, seeing Mor for the first time in 50 years:

-She’s my mate

Mor:

-Nice to see you too, Rhys

*The Grim Reaper, visiting Feyre and wondering if she’ll die this time*

Feyre:

*Feyre returns from under the mountain after getting drunk on fairy wine almost everyday, trusting the wrong people and making several bargains*

Here I present you… The Band of Exiles

Elain is the only one actually doing something/making a cake for Feyre (Also picking a Tylenol on the way for a spymaster✨friend✨ but she is mad at him so no specially made powder this year)
