Amidst the Madness Chapter 4
Wanted to get this one out for the final day of @nestaarcheronweek
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55268251/chapters/140863876
Teaser:
“I believe Rhys promised not to take her back to Velaris,” Azriel’s voice was as close to enraged as she had ever heard the usually polite male. “You should word your bargains more carefully, Cassian.”
“It wasn’t a bargain,” Cassian kept his eyes on her as he spoke to Azriel. “I was under the impression we were all trying to trust each other.” Now he flicked his eyes to the other male, “at least for the duration of the war.”
Azriel shrugged, “I don’t trust quite as easily as Rhys. It’ll take more than a few calculated words and some battle skill to win me over.” Nesta rather thought that should have been her line.

“I can fix him (No Really I Can)” was actually written about the three-way relationship between me, writing fanfiction, and Canon Cassian.

Should we be expecting any smut in Amidst the Madness?
Asking for a friend ;)
Nesta and Cassian? Fighting for their lives and living in war tents next to each other? Slowly falling in love as the threat of death hangs over their heads and every day needs to be gripped as if it might be their very last? Naaaahhh can’t imagine THAT could lead to anything … spicy …
That said - it’s gonna be a while. I’m a BIG believer in earning your smut and both of these characters have a few other things to focus on right now.

Amidst the Madness Chapter 3
You've all had me so absolutely FLOORED with the reaction to this fic so I decided to move chapter three up and get it out for Lover day of @nestaarcheronweek
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55268251/chapters/140703211
Teaser:
“You faeries have such strange romantic notions.” She plucked at a loose thread on her dress, “at first I thought it was because things are better here, more pregressive, but now I see it is only delusion.” Rhys inclined his head, inviting or daring her to continue, she wasn’t sure which. “What a ridiculous thought, that a man would not hurt a woman that belongs to him.”
“You don’t belong to anyone,” Feyre growled. Nesta only shrugged.
“Why do I get the feeling that isn’t exactly true in this frigid wasteland of a territory.” Rhys’ face went pale, the truth revealed in his darkening eyes.
“You are not Illyrian. Their customs do not apply to you.”
Nesta hummed, “How fortunate for me.”

Hi!! I just wanted to ask if you know when chapter 3 of the new fic will be posted? (No rush at all- was just curious). It’s such a fantastic fic already, I love it so much x
I am planning to post it for the last day of @nestaarcheronweek but until then here’s a little teaser:
Nesta nodded. “I like to see my family alive.”
“Your happiness comes at a very high price, then. Times being what they are.”
The invitation was clear. The offer he was begging her to make. Such hunger in those hazel eyes, more gold than green in the rapidly fading light.
“Oh that isn’t the price,” a tiny twitch of a smile, “it’s just the first test.”

“Hello I am someone who likes to use a bow and arrow and will be made into a faerie by the end of this book”
“Oh cool and what is your name?”
“FEYre ARCHERon”

Amidst the Madness: Chapter 2
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55268251/chapters/140412451
Teaser:
7 siphons flared in response. Not a match for Rhys’ magic, but plenty threat enough. “You might have that pretty magic, but I have the one thing you never will.” Cassian’s smirk was slow and measured, a healthy reminder that this male had not been elevated from a bastard by mistake. Or by pure brute force. Cassian was not a mindless killer, unfortunately. Those were so much easier to manage. This male … he was a strategist. Cauldron, Rhys would be lying if he said it hadn’t crossed his mind to put the male in charge of his entire military force even before this war started brewing. “You need my army.”
“It is my army,” Rhysand spat.
Cassian laughed. Head thrown back, teeth gleaming. “Go tell them that, high lord,” he grinned. “No, seriously. Go order Illyria to fight in your war.” Thick arms crossed over his chest, “I’ll wait. Let me know how it goes.”

My fav?
“Oh fuck you.” (To Elain)
But in all seriousness my actual fav is from the Kelpie scene:
“They had all happened to her. She had survived, but she had been helpless and afraid. Not today. Today, she would happen to him.”
🤍🩵 Nesta Week 2024 is ONE DAY away 🩵🤍
Thank you to everyone who voted in our polls over the last ten days! We can’t wait to celebrate Nesta with you 🩵🩵

Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me is so Nesta coded and I’ll die on this hill.
The who's who of "Who's that?" is poised for the attack
You don’t get to tell me about sad
Crash the party like a record scratch as I scream/"Who's afraid of little old me?"/ You should be
The scandal was contained/The bullet had just grazed/At all costs, keep your good name/You don't get to tell me you feel bad
Is it a wonder I broke? Let's hear one morе joke/Then we could all just laugh until I cry
I was tame, I was gentle 'til the circus life made me mean/ "Don't you worry, folks, we took out all her teeth"
I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me/ You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me
You caged me and then you called me crazy/ I am what I am 'cause you trained me

I thought the new Taylor album was going to really help my fanfic writing.
Instead there’s 2 albums and I’m lying on the floor silently.
Once I emotionally recover in 4-6 business months, though … it’ll be over for the IC.

Do you have a schedule for the new fanfic? It’s the only thing keeping me happy this final season 🥹 the first chapter was perfect!!!
This is so sweet! As some of you may know, the word “schedule” and I are mortal enemies however I am actively working on it and expect chapter 2 by the weekend.
In the meantime have a snippet:
A gust of wind slipped through where tent flaps pulled aside. The wrong sister for comfort stepping into the small, though admittedly comfortable space. “Do you want to go back to Velaris?”
Nesta scoffed. “And be blamed for its destruction?”
“Rhysand and Azriel will control him.” So confident, so entirely wrong. “If you wish to leave just say the word.”
Nesta blinked up at her sister. Her baby sister who knew so much of swinging sword and so little of how this world worked. Whichever one they were in.

New Fic: Amidst the Madness
link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55268251/chapters/140196829
summary:
Love and war have always followed the same rules: Quick to ignite, slow to extinguish. There aren't many things Cassian has dared to openly want in his 500 years of existence. Not even the position he currently occupies as Lord of Windahaven (far too lofty a spot for nothing more than a well-blodded bastard, if you ask the other Illyrian Lords), but from the second Nesta Archeron stepped foot in his camp, the entire world ebbed into a single truth. She is his. He is hers. Everything else - the war he is meant to lead, the people relying on him, the legacy he should be fighting to protect, cease to exist the second his eyes are caught in roiling silver flames. There is pain in this female, his female. And retribution will be exacted. Rhysand has his war, and now so does Cassian. Whether the two align ... only Nesta can give that order.
teaser:
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you, High Lord.” Cassian didn’t even look at the little prince as he spoke the threat. His hands and one knee pressed the spy into the dirt, but his eyes were on her. It was where they belonged. That face, those sharp, high cheek bones, deliciously scowling lips and the endless rage and power swirling inside silver eyes … that face was the reason he had been given the ability to see. The truth of that thought settled into his very bones. The mountains were no longer true North, she was. Mate. His mate. Imperious as the mountains behind them, cold as the first snow, powerful as the very wind that whipped through his camp. She was his. And there wasn’t a corner of this world Rhysand could hide her away in. “I will tear your little city down one building at a time if you take her away from me.”

I love to torture the people so I’ve started writing this and uh … Cassian is so hot when he’s not being Rhys’ bitch boy???? Tiny sneak peak hehe
“I stomped your ass into the dirt your first day here just because I didn’t like your face, Little Prince.” And then continued to do so through a half century of training. Rhys didn’t need the reminder. “Imagine what I’ll do if you try to keep my mate from me.”
I’ve recently become obsessed with the idea of an AU where Cassian was never taken in by Rhys’ mom and instead worked his way up in Illyria as a warrior and he and Nesta don’t meet until Rhys brings them to Illyria during ACOWAR and it’s just INSTANT near bloodshed and Rhys and Cassian already have a sort of heads butting relationship characterized by mutual respect but more begrudging than actually liking each other at all and Cassian has 0 reason to hide the mating bond so he just gets all possessive real quick and Feyre is freaking out and Rhys is like of fucking course and Nesta is just like HA yeah that’s gonna be a no on the mating bond to a warlord thanks and it’s all just an absolute chaotic disaster
So anyway … if anyone wants to write that … (maybe I’ll try to get something together for Nesta week but I don’t have much faith in my free time these days)

I have not read Crescent City.
I know nothing about either of these characters.
But I’m getting the fan art on my dash,
And I can already tell you …
I ship Rhun and Lidia. If I read the series I would be obsessed with them I just know it. It’s a vibe. It’s an intrinsic knowledge. I need no further information. I know know this to be true.

"But Nesta was mean!" Good for her. I think she should've been meaner actually. If you're 500+ years old and you can't handle a 20 or so year-old formerly human woman snapping back at you then you're just a loser.
