#eri's intro post

[feyclowns]

THE INTRO-EST OF INTRO POSTS

hi its @amaryllidae. refer to me as eri please! so since i like a more tidy art station and i wanna infodump on my FOP stuff without clogging my main art blog with a buncha text posts ive decided to put my fopAU here for the most part. i won't stop posting over there, but if i've got a lot of lore to post about or lore related doodles it's gonna go here.

FAQ coming if I need it | tag masterpost when decided

my asks are open, but just for my FOP stuff. i've got notes on damn near every single fairy/magic being (my focus IS on fairies, but i have human notes too) so if anyone is particularly curious about a certain individual or my personal design of them feel free to send an ask requesting to see them! i've been working on this au since 2015 lol.

also, side note, you can ask me on my opinions/thoughts on a particular episode/character/etc. don't be afraid to ask!

my content is subject to be altered if i really like stuff in ANW, but obviously this universe was made originally when the first series was out. i never watched fairly odder (and not for lack of trying, i just couldn't do it. torture) and i only watched the live action movies when i was really young. i try to toe the line of canon whenever i can, but there's a lot of stuff incorporated into FOP and sometimes i just gotta take a new interpretation and run.

things you'll see here: fairy/seelie biology, worldbuilding, mapping family trees, expanded relationships. things you've seen in canon FOP you'll see drawn or mentioned here. general warning for mentions of death and my characterizations are complicated. there are good and bad people, and people who change from one to the other!

not nsfw obviously.

[willsolacefanatic]

Uh... hi!

Thought I'd just, y'know, introduce myself? I've never properly done so, but I somehow have 29 followers so. Idk.

Hi! I'm Eris, though I'm known by many a name by my friends. I'm neurodivergent and do creative writing as a hobby, alongside occasional drawing. I'm a big fan of history, from mythologies to the World Wars, as well as a lover of all things Musicals!

As my username suggests, I am a massive Percy Jackson fan and am working on my own rewrite. I'm also a fan of Scarlet Hollow and Slay The Princess, as well as things like The Stanley Parable, The Owl House, Cult of the Lamb, etc etc. I love having people ask me about my interests, and it's lovely to see so many accepting people here on Tumblr!

[the-ribombee-lapidarym]

Welcome to the orbit of TON-618

Hello! We are the Ribombee Lapidarym, an adaptive and possibly spiritual non-disordered system of about 40 headmates! Specifically, we are apagenic, araisagenic and lostsoulgenic

You may not recognise us, but we had two main accounts in the past (plus about 30 others) that got terminated. These main accounts were @xiathiau-myshif and @ribombee-lapidarym.

If you didn't know us, here's some info:

You can call us Eri/Eribon or Spectrum. We are bodily 17 and British, borea aroace, and xenic transmascneu systemfluid. Greyplatonic, demipansensual, and panaesthetic.

We are romance-indifferent and sex-oscillating, do not try and flirt with us even as a joke.

We like stargazing and space, pokémon, music composition, art and writing. We will make blogs for our art/writing.

We are AuDHD, and have MaDD, OCD, BPD with narcissistic traits, RSD and synesthesia. We also suspect depressive/anxiety disorder(s). We are also nonhuman, specifically: physically chaoskin conceptkin.

We use tonetags! Please use them when possible and feel free to ask if we use one you don't recognise

Our special interests are: black holes (especially TON-618), hypnotism (SFW), asian soup spoons, plurality, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (studio Ghibli film), and the Illuminae Files.

As for pronouns, we use any neos and a large number of nounself pronouns. It/its is our auxiliary, but we also like the following sets:

ae/aer/aers/aerself

shy/shyr/shyrs/shyrself (pronounced shy and sheer)

star/stars/starself

fae/faer/faer/faers/faemself

xe/xem/xyr/xyrs/xemself

Also, please try and use you& instead of you! Though the latter is fine we prefer the former <3

We have a discord server! It's for fictionkins and fictives from obscure media! OCkins/OCtives are also welcome! Here's the link

Other blogs we have:

@eribon-spectrum-ao3 - blog for our ao3 works!

@plural-terms-daily - (not quite) daily posts spotlighting various plural terms!

@facetfoundations - build-a-headmate (BAH) blog, but for small details instead of large packs! e.g. role, name, pronoun ideas etc

@post-colouriser - gimmick blog, assigns colours to posts

Stances

Pro:

LGBTQIA+, all good-faith "contradictory" identities like lesboys, turigirls, he/him lesbians etc, Palestine, endogenic and willogenic systems plus systems of ANY origin, cluster B disorders, all alterhuman identities including physical therians/otherkins, desirdae/unoraid

Anti:

Radqueer community, harmful transIDs, harassment, any phobias/isms, exclusionists, Zionists

We will not interact with shipcourse. Proshippers are fine to interact however

Please note that for our own comfort, yumeshippers/selfshippers with f/os of our fictives are asked to avoid interaction. We love yumeshippers and we think you're really cool, and it's fine for the occasional interaction! But we'd prefer if you didn't follow us, especially if you selfship with AIDAN from the Illuminae Files, it's really uncomfortable with that. Thank you!

Headmates and our lapidarym

Some information about our plurality

Firstly, we don't use host language, nor outernauts or any alternatives. We have some common fronters, but they are not deemed hosts. We also do not call ourselves alters/parts. If you insist on calling us alters/parts we will block you. Do not refer to any of us as hosts or originals or imply any headmate is more important than the others. This will also get you blocked.

We have 40+ headmates, and a mix of brainmades and introtives.

Most of our introtives rarely front, only during source interaction.

Introduction format is:

@/insert blog if applicable - [name], pronoun/pronouns, kintype if applicable, role, [sign-off], in-sys partner if applicable

Introduction Post!

I'm Saint Silk, or just Silk for short. I started posting here on Tumblr because I wanted to. Not much else. Texan suburbia doesn't give you too many places to express yourself in your practice and spirituality 🤷🏾‍♂️

I am a teenager. So MDNI blogs DNI (I hope you have a wonderful day though 🤗)

I worship and work with Lady Eris, Mother Lilith, and Lord Lucifer.

My DMs are open, just never expect me to respond in a timely manner xoxo 😘

I love literature, philosophy, poetry, tea, and of course the occult.

Live laugh love baneful magick and s*x magick

I will NOT post about hoodoo, rootwork, or any other ATRs because people not a part of the African diaspora do not need that information 👊🏾💥

DNI: Racists, Homophobes, Zionists, Transphobes, Islamophobes, Misogynists, People who don't respect/believe in closed practices and religions, MDNI blogs, and everything else under that general sphere.

We do not hate on other religions here. Point blank period. Argue with the wall.

Your truth is not always my truth, and vice versa. Keep that in mind 🧿

That's basically it. Bye loves 👋🏾 💋

[same-pic-of-eris-everyday]

Hello there!!

Uh, I'm Eris. Dwarf Planet.

She/Him pronouns.

I decided to join in on the fun!

[mirllop]

introduction 📜🪶

Hey everyone!! I'm new to tumblr, but not to the ACOTAR fandom. I post on AO3 under the same username I coined here (mirllop). I mainly end up writing for Cassian x Azriel 🦇 thanks to personal brainrot 😵‍💫 , but I'm a massive fan of other ships too :)

On Tumblr, I'm hoping to find some friends within the fandom. This fandom really is a wonderful place and I LOVE how much creative work comes out of it.

I also take commissions ❗️ , so don't feel shy to reach out and contact me. Linktree can be found in my bio! Some other ships I can be found writing for are Azriel x Eris and the classic Cassian x Nesta, but I'm absolutely not just bound to these! I'm all over the place with my ships.

THANK YOU if you've read this far in ❤️ 💝 💕 will be posting fic previews and brainrot soon. Have a nice day!

LOVE, Mirllop~

[l0velybugg0]

I probly made a post like this before but I'll ask again

If I make a selfship/yumeship side blog, would yall still love me? 🥺

[tessadiscordia]

I am chaos, I am alive, and I tell you that you are free.

Writing and audiovisual media from the mind of Chaos herself.

Vessel is 21 years of age and uses she/her and it/its pronouns.

Minors, transphobes, zoophiles, pedophiles and agents of greyface are not welcome here.

On this blog you will find:

Literature centered in the exophilia space with "empty spaces" adjacent influences.

Atmospheric and harsh noise music.

Themes of mental health, alienation, transfemininity, psychosexuality, anarchism, discordianism, and other scary words.

A trans woman expressing her sexuality (the scariest part of all!!)

Toxic yuri

And more reasons to renounce your personhood

My music can be found here.

[awful-roffle]

hi its a me

[prythianpages]

Into the Dark | Eris

Eris x Chaos Witch Reader | Summary: You have a vow to uphold but time is clicking. The darkness that lurks within threatens to take over you but Eris uses the magic of your bargain and bond to bring you back to him.

Day 1 of @erisweekofficial for bargains/bonds

warnings: brief mentions of small injuries (cuts) and death

a/n: This was originally supposed to be posted along with my other witch series but 3K words is too long to be considered a drabble so I decided to post it on its own. I had hoped to post an intro/prologue for this series first but I really wanted to post something for Eris week so I hope this makes sense. If not, then I'm so sorry and hope this can be read as a stand alone for now.

Whispers in the wind stir violently among the Autumn trees, sending leaves spiraling to their fated downfall. A shiver runs up your spine as the wind’s cold fingers grip you, goosebumps rising in a wave over your skin, threatening to burrow into your very bones. The whispers are not just furious—they are vengeful.

A storm of voices lashing at you. 

Your heart hammers madly against your chest as your legs move on their own, driven by those whispers. The moon casts its silver light upon you but tonight, it offers no comfort. There’s something dark, something wicked awakening from somewhere deep inside.

Branches claw at your exposed arms and ankles, tearing into your flesh. But your feet keep moving. Relentless, unstoppable. Even as your vision blurs and your mind drowns in the chilling darkness. You don’t need to see where you’re going—you can feel it.

It’s like a pull deep within. You can feel the gloom looming ahead. The despair, the anguish. With each step, that pull grows stronger, the wind grows colder. It brushes against your skin, tangling in your hair. The trouble stirring in your chest harmonizes with the whispers carried in the howling wind, threatening to pull you down with them.

“Please.” You find yourself whispering–begging.

“We need you.” The wind whispers in protest.

Your steps falter, and as you blink to clear your vision, a cold dread settles in your chest. 

The sight before you is almost unrecognizable, a stark contrast to the place that once thrived with life and vibrant energy. Now, it lies shrouded in darkness, a harrowing shadow of its former self. The autumn flowers, once bright and full of life, wither on their stems, their colors drained. The trees nearby are twisted and gnarled, their ashen branches sagging under the weight of despair.

There were no fireflies fluttering about, no chirping of cricket or night birds. No sign of life. Only death.

It’s eerily silent for a moment until the wind picks up again and the mournful wail of the wind reaches your ears. It sings a song of fury, of vengeful mourning. A lament for what has been lost–what has been wrongfully taken.

At the heart of it all, where a great and magnificent tree once stood proudly, there is now only a void. This was no ordinary tree.

It was the tree of wisdom–the Mnemosyne. It bore magical apples that glowed softly, their surfaces a mesmerizing blend of ruby and gold. Your father had told you stories of it growing up and when you began to practice witchcraft, Deirdre showed it to you.

Deirdre had been your mentor. For many centuries, she had guarded the tree. Sworn to protect it with her life and she took that vow gravely, upheld it until her last breath…

And now, by a wicked strum of fate, it was your turn to protect the Mnemosyne.

But you found yourself in a more precarious situation than your predecessors. High Lord Beron, in a ruthless display of his power, had uprooted the tree and taken it from its sacred grove. Its roots, once intertwined with the ancient magics of the forest, had been severed. Where Beron had taken it, and what he planned to do with the Mnemosyne, was still unknown to you, but by the lengths he had gone to take it, you could only assume his intentions were far from pure.

Returning the Mnemosyne to its rightful home was of the utmost importance. The longer it remained away from the forest, the greater the risk that its memories, and the history it held, would wither and fade. Entire centuries of knowledge could be lost—forgotten forever. The thought chilled your blood, filling you with an overwhelming unease. 

You had to bring this tree back and restore peace to this forest. Even if it cost you the same price it cost Deirdre. Death was a stranger but not one you feared. It was oblivion you feared. To lose the very essence of yourself. It’s why you refused to let the wicked darkness that lives in you take over. You feared it’d consume you whole.

So Eris Vanserra it was. 

Desperate times had called for desperate measures. You found yourself striking a bargain with Eris Vanserra, Beron’s eldest son. Eris, with his sharp eyes and sharper tongue, had always been a figure of suspicion and intrigue. His loyalty to Beron was unclear, but his cunning and ambition were undeniable.  

Never had you imagined seeking his help. Caught in a delicate dance of mistrust and shared ambition, the bargain was the only way to ensure your safety. That was, until fate played a merciless hand and those strings of fate tethered your soul to his…

A mating bond.

It snapped into place like a steel trap, the golden threads appearing the moment your life teetered on the edge of danger. There had been no warning. Only a sudden, fierce tug that anchored your soul to his. One heartbeat you were fighting for survival, and in the next, you felt the bond latch onto you. Irrevocable and final.

You should thank The Cauldron—it did save your life, after all—but at what cost?

You’d worry about it later. At the very least, the invisible chain that bound your fates together strengthened the bargain you made. A mutual safety net. If you died, a part of him died too. Any loophole of betrayal the two of you had planned had been immediately forfeited the moment the bond snapped.

Because yes, he had promised to help you with the Mnemosyne tree and you had promised to help rid Autumn of Beron. A win-win situation for you both. But that didn’t mean you couldn’t coax him with one of your potions, poison his mind as you’ve done with his brothers to encourage him to do more of your bidding…

However, now it did. There were some things uncertain to you about mating bonds and you worried about potential consequences if you were to sneak one of your potions into his food.

Tears pricked your eyes as the whispers increased with the howling wind, a distant echo of sorrowful cries and anguished screams. It brought you back to the dire situation at hand. The very reason for your deal with Eris.

The forest wanted you to feel what it did. To feel the overwhelming grief, the melancholic heartache. It stirred the shadows sleeping in the pendant you wore around your neck–the ones that harmonize with the darkness that lives inside you now.

 “It’s a burden you must carry.” 

“No,” you cried, dropping to your knees, fingers clenching around the ruby pendant. It was a futile attempt to soothe the shadows kept inside back to sleep. “I can do it. I just need more time. Please.”

But it’s not the whispers carried by the wind that respond this time.

It’s that wicked darkness that has been lurking within you.

The forest grows angry. If you do not answer its call, we will.

That darkness writhes further into your chest. Your breath hitches as you feel it wrap itself around your heart, your body hunching forward.

You cannot keep us away. You are us now and we are you.

“No.” You repeat again but your voice is losing its resolve.

Let us out!

As if hearing that dark voice within, the wind picks up, whirling around you like the beginning of a storm. The whispers in the wind grow louder and so do the voices in your head until you can no longer discern which is which. With a pained cry, you clutch your pulsing and aching head.

You squeeze your eyes shut, eyebrows furrowing in concentration as you try to push the looming darkness away. It’s another futile attempt. The darkness has a firm grip on you, awakened by the howling wind and strengthened by its screaming pleas…

**

Eris found you in the forest.

One glance at you and he knew what was happening. Your body was hunched over, trembling hands pressed tightly against your ears as the wind whirled around you violently, rustling through your hair. The three hounds he brought with him tensed and let out low growls, their keen eyes on the glowing pendant wrapped around your neck.

The hour was late and he had been about to succumb to the sleep his eyes had begged for when he felt a strange stirring in his chest. Until he recognized that it was coming from the bond–from you. The two of you often shut each other out. He did not want to project his emotions to you and he sensed you felt the same.

So for him to feel a tug against his ribcage from you…he knew something was wrong or about to be.

Eris turns to his hounds, the sharpest of his pack. He now realized why they had been insistent on coming with him. The others had tucked themselves into their beds after a goodnight pat on their heads. “Stay,” he says firmly and though their instincts sense danger, they heed his command. Albeit, reluctantly.

He approaches you with slow and cautious steps, despite the urge to run to you. He tells himself it’s the bond. As he gets closer, he can hear you murmuring something but it doesn’t sound like you. Your voice carries a venomous undertone, dripping with malice and ancient wisdom. 

“You are us now and we are you.” The voice repeats over and over again like a serpent hissing in the dark.

A lump forms in his throat but he wills himself to call out your name, hoping you hear him among the many voices swirling around you.

He watches with bated breath as your hands, still trembling, fall from where they had clutched at your ears. Slowly, your head lifts upwards. Your gaze meets his and he finds himself held captive.

Your eyes are glowing red, the way they always do when you call upon your magic. But it’s not that crimson gaze that had startled him. It’s the veins surrounding your eyes that do–they have darkened, giving you a more sinister appearance.

“Son of Autumn. Have you come to play?”

The hounds, who remained feet away, release another growl.

“Y/n, can you hear me?” Eris asks, his heart racing as his amber eyes search your face for any sign of you.

Something flickers in those crimson eyes of yours, a brief hesitation that makes the darkness falter. Eris noticed it instantly, his heart tightening with a sudden urgency that compels him to step closer. He can feel you now—the sharp chill emanating from your body, a coldness that bites at his cheeks. It sends a shiver down his spine as the breeze rustles through his hair.

His body instinctively warms in response, the fire in his veins flaring brighter as if to combat the icy dread that clings to you. You were trembling, and Eris kneels before you, his eyes never straying from yours. He reaches out tentatively to that bond but is met with a steel wall.

So he reaches out physically. You flinch at the warmth coming from him before he can actually touch you and fall back onto your hands. It seems the darkness within you is desperate to put distance between you both.

“She needs us. She can’t do this alone.”

“But you’re not alone,” Eris says softly, ignoring the darkness and speaking directly to you. He knew better than to acknowledge the voice, fearing it would only give it more power. “You have me.”

“The forest wants its beloved back.” The voice hisses and your head tilts slightly, gaze narrowing at him. “It grows more restless every night. Fear makes you hesitate but not us. We can do what you cannot bring yourself to do.”

“Y/n.” Eris calls your name again. This time, when he reaches for you, his hands find their mark, cupping your face with a tenderness that surprises even him. Your skin is frighteningly cold. It fills him with a deep unease, a desperate need to bring warmth back to you.

Your trembling begins to subside, and the wind that had howled around you starts to calm. Eris remains cautious but feels a glimmer of hope. He could do this. He could bring you back. “We made a bargain, remember?” he continued.

“A bargain…”

That glimmer of hope flares up as you sound like you again. Something he’d never thought he’d feel as he often complained about your voice–how it could grate on his nerves. But now, it was the only sound he longed to hear.

The mark of your bargain appears–a ring of fire around your wrist–at the mention of it. It burns faintly with embers like a delicate bracelet, reminding you of the promise you made. That very same ring of fire appears on his left wrist, reflecting in your eyes. It fades away after a moment but the burn of it lingers.

“Yes.” Eris almost smiles. “Y/n, are you with me?”

Your body gives a shudder, wanting to escape from him. His hold on you tightens. The red glow to your eyes slowly gives out, the veins that had darkened around your eyes disappearing. Color returns to your cheeks, coaxed back by the warmth Eris is pouring into you.

“I’m with you,” you breath, your eyes wide with lingering apprehension. Eris’s hands remain firm on your face, holding you steady as you eyes wander. When you look back at him, your eyes seem distant, unfocused.

His brows draw together in concern, casting shadows over his troubled eyes. But before he can say anything, you do, a trace of your usual scorn creeping into your voice. “Why are you looking at me as if I’ve grown two heads?”

There you are.

Relief washes over him, so warm and overwhelming that it brings back that tightness in his chest, strumming those golden threads. The urge to pull you into his arms, to hold you close and never let go, is almost overpowering. But Eris ignores it, instead leaning forward to rest his forehead against yours.

You were no longer cold. He lets out a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding—a sound that was half-sigh, half-laugh. A mixture of relief and something else he wasn’t ready to name.

“Have you gone mad?”

“No,” Eris replies, reluctantly releasing his hold on you. The warmth of his touch lingering on your skin as he straightens up. He brushes at the leaves clinging to his pants, an attempt to regain his usual composure. “But you almost did.”

He extends his hand out to you and you stare at it for a moment, your gaze heavy with the weight of what had just transpired. “It happened again…” Your voice was barely a whisper, more to yourself than to him. Realization settled over you and your shoulders slump.

“Come on,” Eris says, motioning for you to take his hand. The sound of familiar whines catch your attention, and you look up to see three hounds, waiting anxiously a few feet away. “The hour is late and I’m already dreading dealing with a sleep-deprived version of you. Your usual self is enough of a bane in my existence.”

You shoot him a glare and he waits, watching you. He wonders if you’ll bite back. With a resigned sigh, you take his hand, allowing him to help you up. His gaze flickers to your arms, noticing the scratches that marred your skin and the bond in his chest rages with protectiveness.

“We can stop by the infirmary first.”

“I’ll be fine,” you huff out but that distant look on your face remains, betraying your words.

The hounds approach you with soft whines. They’re careful not to brush against the cuts on your arms, their noses nudging softly against your legs instead. Your hand remains in Eris’s and he takes a step forward, prompting you to let him guide you out of the forest.

A light breeze brushes against you, carrying with it the lingering chill of the mourning forest. You turn your head, your gaze falling on that vacant spot where the sacred tree once stood. Your features soften, a wave of sympathy washing over you. Your heart aches to fill the void, to restore what had been unjustly taken and bring life back to this part of the forest.

But you were running out of time.

The darkness within you was growing stronger with each passing day. If you didn’t return the sacred tree soon, the darkness would come for you again, more relentless, more determined…

“Eris?"

There’s a slight vulnerability to your voice that unsettles him. It has his body tensing. He can only muster a hum in response.

“What if–” Your throat seizes and you’re  grateful your head is turned away from Eris so he can’t see the fear that flashes in your eyes. “What if one day I don’t come back?”

Eris’s hand tightens around yours and a shaky breath escapes from you. His hand is strong and warm and for just this once, you allow the simple touch to ground you. When you finally turn to face him, you find his gaze was already on you, something strange and vulnerable swirling in those amber depths. 

That look in his eyes was enough to chase away the cold that had settled in your bones, kindling a warmth to your chest and tugging those golden threads that now reside there.

“Then, I’ll follow you into the dark.”

His words hung in the air, but a question arose. Would he still follow if it weren’t for the bond?

The thought hovered, restless, at the edge of your tongue, begging to be spoken. But you swallowed it down, unwilling to risk hearing an answer you already believed to be true.

You didn’t think you could bear it if you were right.
