After Ryoji finds his resolve through the Hero, he offers to join his team. He gives him a choice to go through a better, yet harder way to get through Tartarus, a way only he can access. It features new bosses, content, and a new spin of the final fight with Strega.

Contains: Art, battle stats, Theurgy, combat dialogue, Tartarus dialogue and banter, and more!

Full post under the cut:

This AU explores the idea that instead of Ryoji leaving for the last month, he offers to join the team as a temporary team member to lend his power to help SEES reach the remaining floors of Tartarus before he merges with Nyx. More events happen that prolong the time you spend together.

Ingame, it’s treated like a bonus mission and an addition to get to know Ryoji better during the aftermath of November.

As a new addition to the team, he’ll join SEES in the dorm and have his own version of FTEs with plant tending, movie watching, book reading and cooking. He’ll have interactions with other party members.

The player will also get to know more on his personal feelings as the Appriser. Through conversing with Ryoji, you learn in depth about Tartarus, and the player gets to see a more subdued side of him as he tries to come to terms with his identity.

He uses an evoker to trigger his form as Thanatos instead of using it to summon a Persona.

The player can choose to go through this route, or play the game like how it was originally set. The ending remains the same.

Party Stats:

Level: Scaleable, 2 levels higher

Element: Dark and Almighty

Weakness: None, reflects pierce damage

Combat style: Prioritizes debuffing, tank

Theurgy - Death’s Call: Deals massive almighty damage to all foes. Fears both enemies and allies.

Theurgy condition: When Ryoji sees his friends suffer a lethal blow, he feels determined to take vengeance.

Theurgy Personality bonus:

Chance to grant Arcana Burst even without completing your Major Arcana stack.

+ More damage to weak foes.

Intercepts an incoming lethal blow for a party member.

DIALOGUE:

Ryoji’s first Tartarus entrance dialogue:

Ryoji: - So this is Tartarus.

I, I can feel her. She’s keeping an eye on us. On me.

Remember that I’m here to help. Tartarus is Nyx’s realm, but I should know a better way to help you get to the top.

Keep in mind that I may not be as impenetrable while I’m here, and shadows will be a lot more hostile if we go this way. Are you sure you wanna do this?

MC:

> Nowhere to go but up.

> Let’s do this.

> Are you sure there’s no other way?

Don’t worry. Whatever‘s waiting for us, I won’t let anything happen to you. They’ll have to get through me first.

First Summon dialogue:

I have to do this. Everyone..I’m sorry for what you’re about to see.

Get out here, Thanatos!

Turning into Thanatos (Persona Summon)

If this is what it takes.

Please look away.

Thanatos!

Do what you must!

Combat

Shift dialogue:

All up to you!

We’re in this together!

Receiving end of shift dialogue:

I’m on it!

They’ll get what's coming to them.

Item use:

This will help, right?

Getting healed:

I don’t deserve this.

Death:

I-I hope it was enough.

Sorry..

AILMENTS

Distress

It’s over.. Why do we still try?

Confuse

Guys? What’s going on?!

Rage

Come on! Take me down if you can!

Charm

So, how about dinner?~

Down

You’re kidding me!

Shock

What is this?!

AOA

Before All Out Attack:

We’re going in!

Before splash art:

And that's how it's done!

Splash art Caption:

DEATH IS INEVITABLE

All Out Attack splash art line:

Pointless to deny your fate.

Basic victory dialogue:

I hope it was worth it.

Heh, how was that?

Battle aftermath:

That was impressive. You’re all amazing!

Stairs discovery

Found the stairs. There’s no time to lose!

Found the way up! You know best, leader.

Treasure

Ooh, something shiny!

Hey, guys! Found something useful? Maybe?

SEES advantage:

They never saw it coming!

Ambush / enemy advantage:

Leader, stay close to me!

Hit by crit:

That’s impossible!

SEES Tartarus dialogue w/Ryoji

Junpei: Hey, so.. Ryoji… What’s with the long scarf? And how do you not slip from it when you run?

Ryoji: I don’t think it’s that long!

Yukari: Seriously? Out of all the questions you can ask him, that’s what you go with?

—-

Mitsuru: For someone with no prior experience, you’ve been keeping up well, Ryoji-kun.

Ryoji: I’m glad you think so, Kirijo-senpai.

Akihiko: Don’t push yourself, though, alright?

—-

Junpei: Ryoji! Now that you live with us, we have got to continue the game we were playing!

Ryoji: I don’t think you’d want to…Didn’t I delete your save on accident?

Junpei: Eh, I wasn’t paying much attention to the story in the first place.

—-

Ryoji: I never got to thank you before for helping me settle in, Fuuka. How about I take you out?

Fuuka: Oh, of course! Let’s invite the others too!

Junpei: …Yikes, dude.

—-

Fuuka: I’ve always wanted to do karaoke with you all. You should join us, Ryoji-kun!

Ryoji: Oh, m-me...?

Junpei: Yeah, you’re always holed up in your room and we never know where you’re out at night! How about we sing our hearts out instead?

Ryoji: Ahh.. haha..I… I’ll think about it.

—-

Ryoji: *Humming Mass Destruction*

Aigis: Ryoji-san. Were you the one making those sounds?

Ryoji: Sorry! Makoto-kun and I were listening to some songs, and now I can’t get it out of my head.

—-

Ryoji: Aigis..About what happened before. I feel like I should apologize one more time.

Aigis: Instead of apologies, let’s make a promise. That we’ll see this through, together.

Ryoji: …Yeah. You’re right.

—-

Aigis: It’s strange. In the real world, you’re impenetrable. But in Tartarus...

Ryoji: Until the promised day, I’m an obstacle to Nyx. I wouldn’t put it past her to limit my power.

Mitsuru: So she was expecting this. Well, we just have to plan accordingly, then.

—-

Aigis: I decided to live, but…how do I even begin? How would I know?

Ryoji: I already sense life within you, Aigis. You’re doing more than enough.

—-

Ryoji: Wandering Tartarus must feel repetitive. Maybe I can try something! I can add some arcade machines?

Ryoji: Oh… but if I do that, Tartarus will just take it away again. *sigh* Nevermind, then.

Ken: Can.. Can you actually do that?!

Yukari: *sigh* Of course he can’t.

—-

Akihiko: How are you holding up, Mochizuki? Think you can still keep up?

Ryoji: Heh, that’s not even a question, Senpai.

—-

Ryoji: I hope I’m not bringing you guys down. What do you think, Koromaru-san?

Koromaru: *barks enthusiastically*

Fuuka: Hahaha. Koro-chan seems to enjoy your company!

—-

Yukari: Whew..! You guys notice the shadows have gotten…much more alert?

Akihiko: You’re right. It’s like we unlocked the deepest depths of Tartarus that Nyx didn’t want us to see.

—-

Junpei: Jeez Ryoji, you weren’t kidding. The shadows of this detour are a whole different monster!

Ryoji: I’m sorry, Junpei. But I promise it’s just a little longer.

Junpei: Who am I to back down from a challenge? This’ll be a piece of cake!

—-

Mitsuru: Are you settling in the dorm well, Ryoji-kun?

Ryoji: Oh. I am, thank you.

Mitsuru: Of course. Just let us know if you need anything.

—-

Ken: Did anyone hear footsteps in the boys’ dorm last night?

Yukari: Must have been Aigis sneaking to Makoto’s room, even if I told her to not leave past curfew…

Aigis: It was not me. I was out for my monthly checkup.

Yukari: Then… who was it?

Ryoji: It wasn’t me!

Yukari: No one said it was you!

—-

Ken: So, where have you been living before, well, all of this, Ryoji-senpai?

Ryoji: I-I actually don’t know. Anything outside of school and Makoto-kun becomes a blur.

Fuuka: Ryoji-kun…

—-

Ryoji: You’re amazing to lead such a capable team, Makoto-kun. You look good like this.

—-

Yukari: Ryoji-kun and I went thrift shopping the other day. It was actually pretty fun!

Ryoji: Thanks for taking me out, Takeba-san. I wanted that jacket, though..

Yukari: Unless you wanna blind someone with that thing, there’s no good reason to wear it!

Ryoji: *sighs sadly*

—-

Ryoji: There were so many couples on Paulownia Mall for Christmas Eve. It was lovely to see.

Junpei: Ooo, does our newest member have a special someone they have in mind?

Ryoji: I-I wouldn’t say that..

Junpei: Hahaha! You’re like a tomato right now, dude!

Ryoji: Hey, knock it off!

—-

Ryoji: Wait, you’ve reached past the 200th floor?! Akihiko: All in a day’s work. Everyone has been putting in their all.

—-

Akihiko: You’re hardly breaking a sweat. What’s your routine, Mochizuki?

Ken: I’m guessing it’s him not being human in the first place?

Akihiko: Ken, that’s not..!

Ryoji: It’s alright, I don’t mind. He has a point, though.

—-

Yukari: I won these chocolate bars, I brought them in case anyone wanted a snack. Want some?

Ryoji: Oh, that’s okay. I don’t eat sweets that much.

—-

Mitsuru: I have to say it was quite convenient for the Kirijo Group to have an extra weapon.

Ken: Yeah, and what’re the odds it was a scythe too?

Ryoji: Hahaha…. I guess.

—-

Koromaru *bark*

Aigis: Koromaru-san is asking that if you’re Death, what will that make of the Reaper?

Junpei: I bet Ryoji here can take him down, no problem!

Ryoji: I’d rather not stick around to find out. For your sakes.

—-

Ryoji: I was told you lost a close friend to the Dark Hour. I’m sorry for your loss.

Mitsuru: …Thank you, Ryoji-kun.

Akihiko: He’d want us to move forward. There’s no use dwelling in the past.

Ryoji: I guess you’re right. I’m here to help however I can.

—-

Koromaru: *bark bark*

Junpei: Hey… you think Koromaru sensed Ryoji’s true identity?

Ken: Oh, do you mean because of dogs’ intuition to ghosts and spirits?

Fuuka: I don’t think Ryoji-kun’s just any ghost though..!

—-

Ryoji: Hey Takeba-san. Can I ask you something?

Yukari: I swear, if it’s you trying to ask me out again…

Ryoji: Oh, that’s not what I was gonna- Wait, do you want me to? Because-

Mitsuru: -I think I saw something important there, leader. Let’s check it out.

Ryoji: This feels too familiar.

—-

Junpei: Kyoto was so fun! School trips should happen more often.

Yukari: *glare*

Junpei: Eep!

Ryoji: Ah-! I-I swear, that wasn’t our intention! It was all a misunderstanding! Leader, tell her!

—-

SP LOW:

Mitsuru: Ryoji-kun. Make sure not to strain yourself.

Ryoji: I’m fine, please don’t worry. I can’t let up in front of a pretty girl like you, now can I?

—-

Fuuka: Leader… Ryoji seems tired.

—-

If Makoto has low SP:

Ryoji: You don’t look good…Please, pace yourself. I don’t know what I’d do if something happened to you.

FTEs: (WIP)

'professional associates' dialogue masterpost (in hades 1)

hi im insane. here's a list of timestamps of instances charon and hermes are mentioned or associated with each other in the first game. thought i'd compile them since their dynamic is pretty miss-able and heavily implied through dialogue

using tazzie gaming's 94-run playthrough videos for these. thank you stranger, whoever you are

if anyone has any clips of other interactions lmk, i'll update this post. clips of other characters talking about these two together is fine too!

Hermes's dialogue

youtube

00:30 - first time hermes calls charon his "professional associate"

00:47 - hermes notices zag has charon's keepsake (bone hourglass); calls charon "a real gentleman"

2:44 - hermes talks about his job and charon

3:40 - hermes and his "one-sided chats" with charon

5:10 - hermes tells zagreus to keep his association with charon a secret

5:17 - hermes knows about persephone returning to the underworld despite it still being a secret at that point, implying charon (!) told him

6:05 - charon and questions

10:41 - what hermes thinks of charon :)

11:05 - hermes imitating charon

14:59 - how long hermes and charon have been working together

16:36 - charon dropping off hermes

16:58 - hermes about zag's first fight with charon

17:09 - hermes's bet with charon of zag beating charon twice in a row

17:30 - zagreus completing the bet

Charon's dialogue

youtube

shorter list because you know how charon is lmao

1:55 - zagreus first mentions hermes to charon

5:38 - zagreus asks charon why hermes is helping him escape the underworld

6:13 - zagreus asks charon if he can ask nyx why hermes is helping him, charon gets mad (lol)

9:04 - zagreus and charon after the feast with the olympians; charon and hermes "having a good time" (!!!!!!!)

11:17 - zagreus mentions hermes's bet with charon

13:06 zagreus to charon after beating him twice in a row

if there is ever a good hades 2 dialogue video of these two i'll use that to compile the dialogue in another post lol

edit 6/5/24 - found a charon compilation video that depicts how charon and hermes were subtly conspiring together. thanks youtube user opal!

i'll be listing some dialogue from other characters, and the lucky tooth saga included in the vid. i think it's very funny that skelly is also deep into this.

youtube

22:07 - alternate dialogue from hermes after completing the wager

23:50 - zagreus asks hades about hermes working with charon

24:38 to 24:50 - artemis and zeus wonders where hermes is

24:58 - hermes tells zagreus not to tell anyone he's helping him

25:26 - zagreus asks nyx about hermes

25:54 - hermes comments on skelly's keepsake (lucky tooth)

26:06 - zagreus asks skelly about hermes

26:48 - hermes admonishes zagreus to keep what skelly said to himself

27:00 - hermes about skelly

27:13 - zagreus asks skelly about what hermes said

27:35 - hermes about zagreus's friendship with skelly

33:28 - zagreus confronts skelly about who he's working for; gets confirmation that it's charon, and that hermes works for him too

35:54 - zagreus asks charon about skelly, charon gets mad (lol)

36:18 - hermes heard from charon (!) that zagreus knows the extent of charon's involvement; admonishes zagreus (again) to keep that to himself (lol)

36:33 - zagreus asks skelly if he told charon and hermes about their conversation

39:22 to 39:50 - various lines of dialogues from zagreus telling charon to say hi to hermes as he's exiting charon's shop (!!!!)

#hades game #charmes #professional associates #hermes hades #charon hades #i hope this is also useful to other people!?#Youtube

Astrid, Jamie, and Tooth Fairy designs for the Dragon Prince au

The Dragon Prince Au Masterpost

(design notes under the cut)

Astrid - for her design i tried mixing a bit of both General Amaya's armour and her HTTYD 2 costume. - since Astrid is a part of the dragon killing training program on Berk, i wanted to give her a mix of practical armour that she could wear casually (because she's always ready if shit happens) but also keep it comfortable enough for her to wear regularly. - hence the greaves, bracers, and small pauldrons. - her skirt and shirt were my favorites to draw and im really happy with how her hair came out

Jamie - Jamie's was also an easy one to work on. I mainly worked on interpreting his OG design into the Dragon Prince universe and i thought giving him a blue vest (like in the beginning of RotG) and orange shirt would do the trick. - I made sure to keep it simple though, because he is a commoner living on an outpost/village in Katolis, but still tried to give it the same level of depth that DP character designs always have.

Tooth - undoubtedly my favorite one to work on, and it was entirely because of the colors! - i gave her gold cuffs and earrings like we see in her OG design (even tho those are feathers) and the boots were probably my favorite part of the costume to work on! - her Elven markings are meant to be similar to how her feathers shape her face in her OG design, and the hair was so fun to work with and i think it really pulls it together! Thank goodness there are other Skywing elves with multicolored hair (i.e. Nyx) - the vest was probably the most difficult, i couldn't settle on which pattern to go with, but i wanted to make it look like the pants and vest weren't connected like a bodysuit. So the frilled collard shirt was a great help in distincting the two and the slightly different tones on the pants and vest helped to make it look like they weren't a part of each other. - so over all i'm really happy with how her design turned out!

#also yes #Tooth is shorter than Astrid #Astrid deserves to be tall and buff #will probably give her more muscle when i draw her next eheheheh #I absolutely LOVED drawing these and i got the next set of character designs in the works!!#hoping to finish that up soon but we'll see #life has been weird lately and my wrist has been acting up from all this drawing and work #so i probably need a little break #the dragon prince au #astrid hofferson #jamie bennett #toothiana #rotg #httyd

From the Shadows, the Beast Will Rise CH. 7

Pairing: Azeris | Word Count: 2464 | Chapter Rating: T

Warnings: Canon Typical Mentions of Violence

Previous Chapter | Masterpost | Read on AO3

Fic Summary: Months after that one encounter, Eris receives demand for a response to his summons to visit the Night Court. He ends up with warning for the future and a certain shadowsinger back under his skin.

Chapter Summary: Shadow Intervention forces Az and Eris to confront each other.

A/N: Hi, So if you don’t follow my other posts or fics, I apologize for the lack of update on this. Life and the AO3 curse got me. That said for the new year I hope to keep this up and finish this fic. Also did I spell Koshei wrong? IDK lol

Tagging: @hieragalbatorixdottir @mybestfriendmademe @thisblogisaboutabook @daycourtofficial @ninthcircleofprythian @acourtofladydeath @ysmtttty @pit-and-the-pen if i missed you or added you by accident let me know

Azriel had ignored the tugging of a rogue shadow all day. The others seemed agitated but not as much as the single one tugging on the straps of his leathers. It was a gentle, repetitive nudge. One that he could ignore as he went about his day in the depths of Hewn City. He’d been volunteering more and more to keep himself occupied. And there was no lack of work because Koschei was getting restless with Beron out of the way.

Azriel spent the whole day with a nasty fae from the continent. He’d delivered a message for Vassa and Lucien struck him unconscious before he could leave. Then he brought him to the Night Court and Azriel brought him to the bowels of the city. Not much was learned. By the time Azriel was done with him not much was left either.

“The bond chafing that bad, brother?” Rhys looked over the body, scowling.

“You know how it feels. You tell me,” Az grunted in reply, wiping his hands despite having washed them three times already.

Rhys snapped his fingers, the body disappearing. There was an immediate sound of the beasts below thrashing about in the water, hissing and snapping. It had been a while since they had a treat of fae flesh.

“Still no word?” Azriel knew who he meant and shook his head. Rhys relaxed his shoulders. “Maybe you should go speak to him. Request an audience.”

Azriel scoffed. “He doesn’t want to see me.”

“You don’t know that-“

“I think I do.” Az cut him off. He hated the pity he saw in those violet eyes. Az added. “He’s still establishing himself. It takes time.”

Inside the bond squirmed. Like it knew Azriel was making up bullshit. Rhys didn’t call him out on it.

“He’s sent out correspondence since he’s been High Lord.” Then Rhys got a gleam in his eye Az didn’t like. “Write to him about this new development. He is our ally.”

“You’re high lord-“

“And I am busy. I have a date with the high lady.” Rhys smirked. “First real one since Nyx was born. You wouldn’t want me to cancel that to waste time writing letters on information you have, right?”

Az made a vulgar Illyrian gesture, causing Rhys to throw his head back laughing.

“Your sacrifice is appreciated, Azriel.” Rhys said before winnowing away.

Azriel didn’t know if he wanted to thank or punch his brother in the face. Wearily Azriel winnowed to the House of Wind, wings outstretched to catch himself so he could land. Nesta and Cassian weren’t home; both stationed in Illyria after a joint decision with Rhys and Feyre to keep the armies on call. Without Nesta, the house felt dormant. The only indication of it still being alive was the plate of hot food waiting for him in the kitchen.

He almost didn’t take it.

Resigned, he sat down at the table and forced himself to eat. It was a mindless action- one to replenish the energy he expended in the dungeons. He scarfed it down quickly, mentally preparing for the letter he was going to have to send for Rhys. He still was dreading it when he dropped the empty plate into the sink and made his way to his room.

Come. A shadow curled around his ear. Another tugged his wirst.

What are you doing? He tried to stop but more shadows pushed him forward.

Now he was curious. He entered his room and the shadows scattered. Glancing around nothing seemed different or out of place. The shadow on his wrist tugged him forward. He stopped at his desk. Under the fae light lamp was an envelope he hadn’t seen before. Shadows pushed him to his chair to make him sit.

“Okay, okay,” he said aloud.

Read. The shadows hissed and dragging his hand over to an envelope.

He picked it up. The smell hit him first, making his stomach twist. It smelled like him. There was no writing on the envelope, but when he flipped it over a shock went through him and the bond in his chest tightened. It was an Autumn Court seal- Eris’s seal. He suddenly felt nervous.

Open shadows whispered. With shaky hands he pulled open the envelope and pulled out the letter inside.

Azriel

If you’re reading this, you are a better male than myself. I would not wish to speak to someone who denied a bond such as ours. Nonetheless, I apologize for the lack of correspondence. There are obvious reasons, as I’m sure you know, for why I have not been able to formally reach out to you. I am (Azriel noted that ink gathered in a large dot next to the m) sorry, for how I reacted. It’s not everyday you find you have a mating bond with someone who’d skewer you with their knife at any given chance.

Azriel winced. A shadow curled around his ear. Read. More. With a sigh he continued.

And it pains me. It pains me that it lay dormant for so long. It pains me that centuries have gone on and I thought the pull to you was a weakness I had to overcome. That the history between us is full of sins I cannot atone for. For that I am content to let it remain as it is, as much as I wished this would work. I do not deserve this sacred link between us but I will never reject it. Despite what you think of me I am not that cruel. Maybe in another life we could try again. I know it isn’t what you want. That I am not what you want.

And yet everyday I am filled with a longing for your presence that all but suffocates me. I dream of what could be if we were different fae. If I had not been a coward centuries ago. It enrages me at times. How the Mother could be so cruel and me so unworthy of my destined half. I dream of another life with you often. So much it’s pathetic-

Azriel stopped reading, and tried to not ball up the letter as realization set in. Eris wants the bond. It played in his mind over and over as shadows whirled around him, whispering things he couldn’t focus on. His wings flared out. The bond in his chest felt heavier than it had in weeks. Urgency rose in him as his thoughts went frantic.

He needed to see him.

He needed to tell him.

We will take you. Shadows startled him with how loudly they spoke. We will see our mate.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Eris let himself fall back onto his bed, hoping the tonic would start working. His head was pounded- Edith said he needed rest but what rest was there to be had? He’d yet to make his rounds as new High Lord through Autumn. Untangling his father’s previous treaties and laws was proving to be a more daunting task than he anticipated.

He rubbed his forehead and he smelt it, the air shifting. Crisp evergreens. Azriel.

Eris sat up. Out of the darkness in the corner of the room Azriel stepped forward like an angel of old. No words left Eris’s mouth, just the bond aching in his chest and Azriel approached him. He didn’t speak as he pulled Eris forward, those blessed hands threading his hair and pulling Eris up into a kiss. The way his body relaxed in Azriel’s hold and the sigh he made as he kissed him back was unlike him. The bond in his chest flared and squirmed, wanting. Eris wanted to lay back and pulled Azriel down with him. Instead he forced himself to pull away.

“What are you doing here,” Eris panted out his breaths, trying to get a hold of himself.

Azriel did not move back, hands gripping the lapels of his jacket. “I got your letter.”

Like cold water tossed on to him, Eris recoiled and his mood dampened. “What letter?”

“It had your seal- Eris,” Eris swallowed hard at the sound of his name on Azriel’s lips and the way his hazel eyes were frantically searching his own. “I want the bond too. I want this. I want you. I don’t care what I have to do- we can make it work-“

He shook his head. “You weren’t supposed to get that letter.”

Az stiffened and frowned. “What?”

“I wasn’t going to send it. I don’t understand how you got it.” As if taunting him a shadow appeared, poking over his master’s wings. Eris glared at it.

“But you meant it, right?”

Eris looked back and hazel eyes were practically begging. Azriel wasn’t supposed to see that letter. No one was supposed to see that letter. The things Eris said were never meant to see the light of day. He wanted to lash out- to lie. His tongue was tied; he couldn’t make himself hurt Az.

“Yes. I did.”

Eris never felt so vulnerable in his life. Relief washed over Azriel’s face and by the gods he’d never looked more handsome. One of those hands reached up and cradled up around his cheek and neck. Eris reached up and grabbed that leather wrapped arm like his life depended on it.

“I told them about the bond.” Az whispered, eyes lined with a sliver of tears waiting to spill over. He didn’t need to elaborate who them were.

“And?”

“Mor is angry.”

There was a hint of sadness in Azriel’s tone. It felt like it squeezed the bond in Eris’s chest.

“Of course she is, I do not blame her.” And he meant it.

“Nesta was…” Azriel shifted his gaze. “Concerningly pleased when I told her.” Eris raised a brow. “She all but said it was hot.”

Eris let out a laugh- the first one since the mother knows when. Azriel snorted which made Eris laugh harder. By the time they caught their breaths, Azriel had his forehead pressed against Eris’s.

“How did we get here?” Eris murmured. More to himself than to Az.

“Only the Mother knows,” Az replied.

When he stepped back, Eris damn near whined. He hated how much he wanted to keep Azriel close. Azriel cleared his throat while Eris just studied him.

“I was supposed to write to you actually. There’s been a development with Koshei.”

Just like that Eris shoved down his feelings. “Right. Lucien mentioned he took a fae to the Night Court. I assume you were the one who interrogated him?”

Azriel seemed tense when he replied. “Yes. Didn’t offer much. Only that he was hired by someone on the continent. We think someone in Rask may be behind it.”

Eris stood from his bed and paced. “Lucien said the message was that someone would come for her soon. I sent some men to their home to stand guard.” He paused for a moment, wondering if he should volunteer the other piece of information he had.

“What are you thinking?” Azriel asked after a moment.

“It’s nothing.” He replied quickly.

“Doesn’t seem like nothing,” his gaze narrowed and he crossed his arms.

Eris scoffed. “And how would you know? Have your shadows whisper to you?”

“Not even five minutes and your defenses are up.” Az shook his head. “I don’t know what I expected from you.”

“I don’t either. You are the spymaster of another court. Just because we have a bond doesn’t negate that.” Eris could feel the heat rise- from anger or hurt he didn’t know. He did his best to taper it down.

“And I have already talked to Rhys and Feyre about that.” Azriel shoved at his leathers on his shoulder, pushing them aside to reveal a tattooed rune. “I made a bargain.”

He scowled, his eyes lingering on the rune. “Why? Did they make you bargain?”

“I offered.” Azriel dropped his hand, the leather sliding back in place.

“Have you lost your senses?” Eris hissed. “Why would you offer a bargain if they didn’t make you?”

“If I choose to pursue the bond between us, I will be relieved from my duties as their spymaster.” There was a hurt in his eyes that twisted Eris’ gut more than a knife.

“In exchange for?”

“I keep their secrets.”

“Just secrets?” Eris could feel his temperature and the room’s temperature rise again as his anger flared. “That’s a broad statement, Azriel. Are you really that daft to place yourself in such a dangerous position? Secrets could be a surprise birthday party for the heir. One slip of the tongue and my mate is dead.”

“Their court secrets, Eris. I’m not an idiot.” Azriel’s wings spread out behind him. “That’s not the point. That isn’t even why I’m here. I just-“

He felt the longing in the bond before Azriel shut it out. That instantly cooled his temper.

“I’ll tell you. But you will not like it.” Eris sighed. “Trust is hard when you spend half a millenia without it. We get through whatever is coming, then we talk seriously about the bond.”

Az relaxed his wings and nodded.

Eris continued. “Considering you’re here, that means Lucien didn’t tell you he spoke with Vassa about the conditions of her release.” Azriel’s gaze narrowed, shadows coming out to peer at him. “He thinks Mr. Archeron offered something he couldn’t give. Vassa was tight lipped but he seems to think he gave one of his daughters as a bargaining piece.”

“What?” Siphons flashed on Az’s chest and hands.

“He has no proof. It was a snide remark from the firebird herself that peaked his interest. Something about Archeron’s daughters not being human anymore and it changing things.”

Azriel balled his fists. “And sure of this?”

“I wouldn’t tell you if I wasn’t. Consider this me trusting you.” Eris needed a drink, the headache already returning. “Tell Rhysand to keep an eye on the other sisters. I doubt Feyre is in any danger.”

Az nodded. “Thank you for telling me. Nesta is with Cassian and can handle herself. I’ll ensure Elain is kept an eye on.”

“Keeping an eye on a seer sounds redundant.” He said, more to himself than Azriel.

“Funny,” Az rolled his eyes. “I’ll send word if something changes.”

“I’ll do the same.”

Az left in a whirl of shadows. Despite them parting on serious terms, Eris felt a sense of ease he hadn’t had since becoming high lord. Azriel wanted the bond too. He wouldn’t admit it to himself but whatever happened with Koshei, that knowledge alone would keep him going. At least he thought it would, until not even hours later a letter landed on his desk from Lucien just as shadows whirled in his study.

“She’s gone,” Az said frantically as the shadows parted. “Elain is gone.”

The master list itself will be below the cut, along with the badge for using all the canon glaives across the week's fills!

Not an icon this year, but instead a "signed" poster of the glaives by the lovely @starjunco. If you wondered what they glaives were up to in their various poses this week, now you know. Of course they couldn't even behave long enough for a good picture. On the other hand, who put Tredd next to Libertus? Drautos doesn't get to look exasperated by the shenanigans when he indirectly caused them.

Day 1

Art

Title: Sacrifice Artist: dablotte Link: Twitter Glaives: Nyx Ulric, Crowe Altius Relationship: Crowe Altius & Nyx Ulric

Title: Day 1 Artist: StarJunco Link: Tumblr Glaives: Luche Lazarus Relationship: N/A

Fics

Title: Exhaustion (ft. Drautos) Author: Blossom Adventures Link: Tumblr Glaives: Titus Drautos Relationships: Titus / Cor Summary/Excerpt:

Cor woke up to an empty bed, he’s probably already up, he thought as he realised what had actually woke him, his phone was ringing, it was Clarus, he looked at the time in his phone screen, 5:15am. The Marshal let out a groan and answered the call.

Title: Call and Response - Chapter 2 Author: Awlwren Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Axis Arra, Tredd Furia Relationships: N/A Summary/Excerpt:

Axis has seen how useful Oracle Sign is. Now to get everyone else to.

Title: Holding Out for a Hero Author: Garbria aka Loki_chan Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Pelna Khara Relationships: N/A Summary/Excerpt:

Pelna knows he’s not the Hero of the Kingsglaive but when he runs into trouble on his own, he rises to the occasion.

Title: Love, War, and Sacrifice Author: Firechocobros Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Titus Drautos, Nyx Ulric, Sonitus Bellum, Luche Lazarus, Axis Arra, Crowe Altius, Pelna Khara, Tredd Furia, Relationships: Polyglaive, DrauCor Summary/Excerpt:

“If it will end this fucking meeting,” Titus started with a heavy sigh. “I will sacrifice the stupid fucking closet to the Guard.”

There were head nods, and they all moved on to the next thing on the agenda. Little did they know that Titus was not giving his closet up without a fight.

Featuring Titus being a petty king and using his Glaive to the best of his abilities.

Day 2

Title: Lichtenberg Figures Author: Firechocobros Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Nyx Ulric, Sonitus Bellum, Luche Lazarus, Axis Arra, Crowe Altius, Pelna Khara, Tredd Furia, Relationships: Polyglaive Summary/Excerpt:

It had been storming all week, and Nyx’s parents had warned him to stay inside, but he was getting restless. Something kept telling him to go outside; the voice was getting stronger, and Nyx was about to listen to it out of pure boredom.

How the Glaives found out who their Clustermates were and what their Asteral Event was.

Title: Delta Blues - Chapter 2 Author: Awlwren Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Libertus Ostium, Nyx Ulric Relationships: Cor / Nyx Summary/Excerpt:

He whirled, sole remaining kukri at the ready as the Princess spread her feet and crouched slightly, ready to run or attack. A car pulled up behind them and jerked to a stop. Libertus rolled down the window and beckoned them over.

“C’mon, get in! They set up a trap in the square, I heard it on the radio,” Libertus yelled in that tone that he was convinced was quiet.

Continuing my Nyx Lives AU where Libertus finds Nyx before he gets shot, and so he never puts on the ring. And things go from there.

Libertus PoV this chapter!

Title: Not All Who Wander Are Lost Author: Garbria aka Loki_chan Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Luche Lazarus, Nyx Ulric, Libertus Ostium Relationships: Luche & Nyx, Libertus & Nyx Summary/Excerpt:

Title: Training (ft. Nyx & Drautos) Author: Blossom Adventures Link: Tumblr Glaives: Nyx Ulric, Titus Drautos Relationships: Nyx / OC Summary/Excerpt:

It was the hottest day of the year, the height of summer, the training grounds in the Citadel were exposed to the full sun at this time of day. Captain Drautos had called off training when he saw how the Glaive were struggling, he let them go home, and they did just that, all but one.

Title: All That Is Gold Does Not Glitter Author: Garbria aka Loki_chan Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Libertus Ostium, Nyx Ulric, Luche Lazarus, Crowe Altius Relationships: Libertus & Nyx Summary/Excerpt:

On their way to Insomnia after the attack on Galahd, Libertus decides Nyx needs some time away and invites him on a hunt. Unfortunately, he should have realized that nothing is simple when traveling with an Ulric.

Title: Hide and Sneak - Chapter 2 Author: Awlwren Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Pelna Khara, Nyx Ulric Relationships: N/A Summary/Excerpt:

Pelna loved figuring out secrets. It was one of the best things about being a scout – putting together puzzles and learning the crucial pieces of information that could save his fellow glaives, or the Crownsguard holding the lines, or the people just trying to live their lives as the tides of war swept over them. He might not be able to liberate whole towns himself, or smash through the enemy lines to allow advances and retreats, but he could find things no one else could, and that saved lives, too.

Pelna is clever, and sneaky, and learns a lot, maybe even more than he wanted to.

Chapter 2/2! Pelna heads home.

Title: Where Angels Fear to Tread Author: Awlwren Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Nyx Ulric, Titus Drautos Relationships: pre- Cor / Nyx Summary/Excerpt:

When he’d turned back enough to have a clearer shot of where Drautos had been standing guard over the glaive wounded, Cor had a moment of confusion when he didn’t see the man. A quick survey of the field showed the lone glaive who’d reinforced the western flank holding back a wall of gunfire with an impressively sturdy shield, one that surely couldn’t last, but no sign of their Captain.

As he got close enough, Cor finally realized that the hunched figure in the middle of the courtyard he’d previously missed was not wearing the red of blood but the darker shade of Drautos’s uniform.

Somehow, while he’d been being cautious, Titus Drautos had fallen.

Cor goes to meet the Kingsglaive returning from their latest raid and helps them out of an ambush, and meets someone who might be worth keeping an eye on.

Title: Fools Rush In Author: Garbria aka Loki_chan Link: Tumblr, Ao3 Glaives: Nyx Ulric, Titus Drautos Relationships: pre - Cor / Nyx Summary/Excerpt:

Things go badly when Nyx’s unit gets ambushed on the way back from a mission. Then Cor shows up.

Elriel Masterpost

Elriel - Writing prompts & Masterlist.

(reposting from my main)

Just some ideas I’ve been thinking about (over and over). Posting them to inspire others or I may take a stab at them myself. Completed fics are linked. Open to requests.

Completed

Elain is struggling with her first Fae blood cycle alone and refuses to ask for help because she’s embarrassed. Azriel leaves her a tonic. - oneshot

Their first time is obviously out in the garden - oneshot, M rated.

Azriel’s POV when they go to the Hewn City in Silver Flames. He and Elain steal a quiet moment together while Nesta dances. - oneshot with angst and smutty thoughts.

Azriel teaches Elain how to use a dagger. - oneshot

Azriel teaches Elain how to winnow and they end up angrily expressing their feelings. - angsty oneshot.

Elain learns about Rhys’s interruption on Solstice. She tells her brother-in-law to back off and respect her choices. Rhys, to her surprise, agrees to support her.

Elain and Azriel are about to die and confess their feelings. - oneshot, angst party

Elain asks the cauldron to take back her gifts, she wants Azriel instead. - oneshot

Prompts

Elain still finds it difficult to put her head under the water in the bath. She prefers her baths to be piping hot against the chill.

Elain dancing at Nesta and Cassian’s mating ceremony – she wears cobalt blue and the stars are shining.

Elain sees the sea for the first time. She wants to swim in it but she doesn’t know how.

Mor spots Elain admiring the Illyrian boy’s wing’s and tells her about the wingspan rumour. Elain laughs until she cries. It’s the most she’s laughed since the Cauldron.

Elain catches a bit of the Valkyrie training and admires the strength and power of the fighters, though she knows her own inner strength can match it.

Elain makes a pledge and gets her very own tattoo. It’s not in a place you see easily. Azriel has a look for it.

Elain rejects the bond with Lucien and he's thankful. She feels a crushing sense of relief as the bond vanishes and they work on their friendship (they actually get along well now the drama is gone).

Elain sees her first Starfall. Azriel flies her somewhere to get a better view.

Elain tries on some Illyrian leathers for the first time. She can feel a certain person’s gaze on her. She looks just as good in a flowing dress though (and better yet - nothing at all).

Elain embroiders something for Azriel and he keeps it by his bed.

Gender Swap AU - Elain is the deadly shadowsinger and Azriel is the quiet gardener.

Elain and little Nyx play together. She thinks about children and motherhood and what it might mean for her.

Night at the Club

AO3 | ACOTAR Masterpost | Masterpost of masterposts |

A/N: Mostly a fluff and comfort fic I wanted to write for myself.

Summary: Azriel and Gwyn have a deep conversation after a brief misunderstanding. Includes descriptions of canon-typical violence and some harsh name-calling (not between Az and Gwyn, I promise).

Word Count: 2118

The music pounded into her skull, and the flashing lights did little to ease her building headache. Nevertheless, Gwyn could feel each beat of the music perfectly synced up with her own heartbeat, and she didn’t mind that at all. No, she had always loved music, be it that of an opera or that of a brothel. The music was equal parts her and she, it; had always been so.

Looking around, she saw Nesta and Emerie thoroughly enjoying themselves on the dance floor, the former with her mate and the latter with Morrigan. Each wore stunning dresses that left little to the imagination, but their eyes seemed to be locked on their respective partners.

It was such a rare moment that they got to spend time with each other because of their schedules and duties for the High Lord. Nights like these were few and far between, when everyone could let loose without worrying about something or the other, and Gwyn didn’t want to take this precious night away from them simply because she had no one to talk to.

They had decided to come to Rita’s tonight after a pleasant evening and dinner at the townhouse, Feyre and Rhys deciding to join them later after Nyx had been put to bed. Nuala and Cerridwen were to watch him tonight. It really did take a village to raise a child, she supposed.

Gwyn didn’t know how she had become part of this strange, and yet wonderful family. She was still getting used to the dynamics of it all: Cassian and Feyre’s easy banter, the love and adoration the High Lord and Lady held for each other and never hid. Thoughts like these tended to make her feel more alone than ever, hence why she was sat at the bar feeling sorry for herself as her sisters-in-arms were having the time of their lives on the dance floor.

She looked quite the opposite of how she felt, however: copper hair flowing in loose waves down her back, glinting in the dim light of the club, the tight emerald dress she wore clinging to her body like a second skin and showing off her generous curves. The golden jewellery Emerie had helped choose for her this afternoon didn’t hurt either, the necklaces and bracelets she donned making her glow like a goddess of the sun.

There had been a time when she hadn’t been able to look at her body without nearly throwing up. A time when she couldn’t stomach anyone looking at her, when all she had wanted to do was fade away into darkness and leave no trace of herself behind. When she had refused to eat, and had refused help because she hadn’t believed she was worthy of it. She had been ready to throw herself into the void and never resurface again.

The Library had helped, in that regard. She no longer felt the need to hide away, and her anxiety had gotten better after she had been exposed to women with similar scars. That didn’t mean she adored her friends any less; not at all. But she had to admit, it did feel nice getting out of the Library occasionally and meeting with people who had flipped her worldview upside down, and then some.

She would forever be thankful to Nesta and Emerie for that. For helping her climb out of that festering hole deep within herself, and giving her a chance to show them who she truly was. A chance for her to heal.

She sighed, and downed the shot glass in front of her, the liquid burning down her throat in a feeling she had come to enjoy. Rhys had insisted that everyone drink tonight, as a thanks for six hundred years of service.

She sometimes forgot how old the High Lord and his brothers were.

Speaking of the High Lord…where was he? Neither Azriel nor Cassian could be seen from where she sat anymore, and panic started to seep into her bones like a steady dose of poison. Breathe, she reminded herself. They wouldn’t have left you like this.

Just as she rose to take a look around, the scent of cedar and wind-chilled mist enveloped her senses.

“Looking for someone?” A deep voice crooned in her ear from behind her.

“No. Well, yes, actually, I was…Well I was looking for-” Gods, what was happening? Gwyn was never this uncoordinated, but being around the shadowsinger seemed to put all her senses on alert and usually tended to turn her into a blubbering idiot.

“Looking for who, Berdara?” Gwyn’s brain nearly short-circuited right then and there. The way he said her name, with that husky deep voice of his…it was enough to make any female go feral. “Was it me?” Gwyn blushed furiously, and she felt more than saw Azriel’s mouth quirk up slightly out of the corner of her eye.

“I’ll take that as a yes. Now, might I know why, exactly, you were looking for me?”

“I…didn’t have anyone to talk to.” Cauldron, the words sounded infinitely more pathetic as she said them out loud. What had prompted her to say that, she had no clue. Azriel hummed noncommittally, and took a seat on the barstool beside Gwyn.

Tonight, his enormous wings cast long shadows on the worn wooden floor, and Gwyn couldn’t help but admire them. A part of her knew she might be acting a bit rude, staring at his wings so outright, but she’d never seen them so up close. Even during training, it was generally Cassian that helped her adjust her stance or correct her movements. Azriel, for some reason that only the Cauldron knew, always stayed a step away; never too close, yet always watching. Watching in that quiet, thoughtful, and utterly maddening way of his that Gwyn had never minded, not a day in her life.

She was drawn out of her ever-saddening thoughts by Azriel gesturing to the bartender with a scarred hand. He came, wiping a wine glass with a filthy cloth that made Gwy nearly gag. Azriel said, “One bourbon shot on the rocks, please.” He looked to Gwyn raising a brow. Want anything? She shook her head, and murmured, “No thank you.” She’d already had quite a bit to drink, and her tolerance for alcohol of any kind was fairly low.

The drink finally arrived, and Gwyn eyed the golden, caramel-coloured liquid swirling in the glass before she looked up at Azriel and said, “You don’t have to stay with me the whole night, you know. I’ll be fine on my own.”

“Is that a dismissal, Berdara?” he teased. Despite her, she cracked a small smile. She wouldn’t have Azriel wasting his evening on keeping her pathetic arse company. It was his night too, and he deserved to enjoy it.

“No,” she said. “I just don’t want you to miss out on anything because you’re sitting here keeping me company.” Azriel’s gaze softened, and he said, not tearing his eyes away from her, “Trust me when I say that there is nowhere I’d rather be right now than here with you.”

Gwyn’s heart exploded then, into a million little fireworks. No one had ever said those words to her, and it felt so agonizingly wonderful to hear them from Azriel, of all people. At least until she realized that Azriel had probably had one too many drinks tonight. It had to be the alcohol talking. After all, why would anyone want to be with her, especially after what had happened in Sangravah?

The words those horrific males had said to her while she had lost control of her body still echoed in her mind like poison, even after all these years. The scars and wounds still lingered on the darkest nights when the thoughts of the temple that had once been a haven filled her head.

Azriel seemed to notice Gwyn’s change in mood though, because he turned to look at her with a concerned expression on his face. “Are you alright? What’s wrong?”

“Yeah,” she forced herself to say, and plastered a smile on her face. “I’m fine. Just a bit tired, I suppose. I’ve never been out this long drinking, and I think I’m a bit overwhelmed. I’m going to get some air,” she added, then got up and left the now deafening sounds of the music and the heat that somehow never seemed to lessen, even during Velaris’ winter season.

Sitting down by the docks, she breathed in the briny scent of the Sidra and sighed. Water had always calmed her, even as a child. She supposed it was her river-nymph genes taking control.

Azriel sat on the barstool with his glass of whiskey in hand, not quite noticing the flashing lights or giggles around him. His mind was on one thing, and one thing only: what had prompted Gwyn to make such a rushed exit? Was it something he’d said? Guilt began to gnaw at him then, a steady knife to the gut. No matter how much he wanted to go to Gwyn and ask her what was wrong, he knew she needed space, and would talk to him when she’d sorted through her own thoughts.

Azriel sat there for another ten minutes or so, before he got up and made a beeline for the bar door.

Gwyn was about get up and make her way home when she heard soft footsteps behind her. Whirling, teal eyes met hazel, and she immediately relaxed. “Hi,” she breathed. Azriel only looked her up and down, assessing her. For injuries? He found nothing amiss though, and instead said softly, “I’m sorry. Whatever it was I said or did.” His brow was scrunched up in concern for her, and immediately, Gwyn’s heart stretched to the point of pain. It was so like Azriel to think that it was his fault, even when it was her own damn heart that needed fixing.

“No. Az, I swear it wasn’t you. Me running out had nothing to do with you.” Azriel still didn’t look convinced though, so Gwyn added lamely, “I just…I have a hard time accepting compliments.”

“Compliments? What-”

“You said you’d rather spend your time with me rather than with your family. Azriel, I-” she swallowed, and tried again. “This was supposed to be a night when you could let loose and relax with your family, not for you to worry about something new.”

“I can’t relax when I know someone isn’t feeling well.”

“I’m fine.” It was the standard response she’d said to everyone at some point, so much so that it had become second nature to her.

“Except you’re not.” Gwyn didn’t quite know how to answer that, so she opted for silence instead, watching the ripples over the inky water.

“Gwyn, please.” Azriel’s voice broke, and she turned to look at him. There was nothing but pain and guilt on that ethereal face of his, and Gwyn felt tears lining her own eyes as he continued, “Please tell me what’s wrong so I can help you. You don’t have to go through this alone. Please.” He whispered the last word, so quietly that Gwyn had to strain her ears to hear it.

Still silent, she gestured to the spot beside her, patting it. Azriel took it as his cue and sat down beside her, legs dangling over the water. Neither said anything for a while, simply observing the city around them. The market squares beginning to wind up, restaurants starting to clean and leave for the night.

Finally, Gwyn murmured, “When I was…In Sangravah, when…” she had to choke back a sob then. She had never said these words out loud to anyone, not even a healer, fearing that it would make them real. “They told me that I was a worthless bitch and all I deserved was…what they were doing. I was called a whore and a fucking cunt more times than I could count. They said I didn’t have any other value and that I should be happy I was…chosen, they called it, for their own personal breeding, like some sort of dog.”

Gwyn couldn’t stop the tears as they flowed then, like a burst dam. Azriel only held her as she collapsed into his arms and sobbed into his shoulder, his muscular arms a warm, steady, and needed comfort. Once she had calmed down a little, he said, “Let’s get you home.” She nodded, lifting her head and wiping her eyes. Azriel picked her up, and shot up into a sky full of stars, the Sidra river a band of inky, black night winding through a stunningly lit Velaris.
