What an incredible week! Together, we created over 400 posts, from stories and memes to aesthetics and art, and even an original musical composition! Your creations were re-blogged by the official @playchoices account, and tweeted by Andrew, the author of Blades himself! And best of all, we had a hell of a lot of fun celebrating a book we love together.
Whether you created content, re-blogged posts, or just followed the tag, we want to thank you each of you for making this week possible.

Such was the life of a second child. Years spent being left out of your parent’s expectations and being taught that you’d only be needed as the last option. For the longest time, there’s nothing but darkness and the fear that maybe that’s all there is to life. Darkness, deep and inviting like the warm embers of a dying fire. Mesmerizing, but you stand still at the thought of getting burned. And fear, for most, it feels like nothing but a cold and lonely bed for your entire life. Like chills down your spine and nails down a chalkboard.
However, that’s not how it was for him. No, Aerin knew what his darkness was. He had spent years nurturing it like a mother would a child, he cared for it, loved it even. The cold abyss that pulsed where his heart should. His heart was a different shape than most.
It was the imposing figure of his brother’s shadow and the heavyweight upon his head called the second prince’s crown. He knew this was this life, it’s what he was born into. Forever forced to play his role as the meek younger brother with a smile on his face. The spare prince. He could never be more than that, it’s what he was made to believe.
Pairing: Tyril Starfury x f!elf MC (A. Soile Nightbloom) - Blades of Light and Shadow

A/N: This fiction is my entry for the @bladesappreciationweek Epilogue day. It is based on several sentences written in Of Starlight and Love for Day 1. Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to get it ready for Day 7. It’s pure fluff and I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it.

Two arms enveloped her waist from behind with a chin carefully resting on her collarbone. She put her hands on his and laughed. It was another lovely day in Undermount. Another day where love was prevailing. Soile was opening the window to renew the air in their bedroom. She closed her eyes to relish his embrace.
“Good morning, my star.”
“It’s too bright to see a shining star.”, Soile answered.
She slowly raised her hand to put it in his hair and faintly closed it. Tyril sighed and brought her closer to his chest.

Even now, as the unfamiliar rage morphs her expression into something akin to hatred, her dagger only a fraction of an inch away from his throat– yes, even now he drinks in the sight of her with nothing but love in his gaze.
Too busy defeating The Dreadlord and the Shadow Court to finish that fic? Chasing too many Contessas to finish coloring your art? Or perhaps you got carried away making your twentieth eleven cream cake?
We understand! We’re hosting one last day of #BladesAW for anyone who couldn’t participate in the first round (and for anyone who wants to share even more content!)
When: March 10, 2021
What: Drabbles, head canons, art, mood boards, shit posts. Anything you wanted to create for BladesAW but couldn’t!
How: This is important. You have to tag the AW blog ( @bladesappreciationweek). And please also tag it #BladesAW!
Who: You. Seriously, you. I don’t care if you’ve never written, or drawn before. We’d love to see your work! Come join the fun.
Prizes: Most of them will be ridiculous celebrations of slacker-dom like a terrible drabble or an edit @choicesarehard makes in 5 minutes. But we’ll also be giving away a $25 digital gift card to a randomly selected writer and artist!
Why: Because we get it. Life happens. And we want BladesAWto be something everyone has a chance to participate in! 💕
Ok this is officially, my last @bladesappreciationweek post, I didnt exactly finish it in time but I wanted to do a group pic with some low key redesigns for the whole crew :) I had a lot of fun doing these redesigns all week, & thank you very much to everyone who helped organize this!
(As an aside what absolutely rediculous story do u guys reckon mal is telling 🤔😂)
