Azriel x Day Court Librarian Reader

i like it when cassian is mean to mor for nesta GIMME SOMETHING QUEEN anything at all i love eating well

I bestow this upon you because I love to be flattered, tbh 🤷‍♀️ (also peep that Gwynriel - I couldn’t resist)

“You can leave now,” Cassian stared at the tent flaps, willing them to open even though he knew they would never reveal what he wanted them to.

“I’m not going to leave you, Cass.” Mor smiled, full and sweet. The way she always did. She smiled like he was being ridiculous, thinking of her and her comfort and telling her she did not need to stay. That was not what he was doing.

“I am asking you to leave, Mor.”

His friend’s jaw went slack. Not enough to part her lips, but enough that he could see bone and muscle droop. “You need someone here.”

“You know who I want to be here.” Cassian winced as he shuffled on the narrow healer’s bed. Eyes fixed on the bandaged up arm he hadn’t let Madja touch.

Mor shook her head, “you’re too competitive for your own good.”

“Excuse me?”

“Don’t pretend I don’t know you,” Mor rolled her eyes halfheartedly. “She’s beautiful. A beautiful, cold, unattainable, challenge. You thrive off of winning-”

“You think that I am wasting time and muddying my fucking brain in the middle of the largest war Prythian has seen in 5 centuries because of a challenge?” Cassian’s voice wasn’t accusatory. It wasn’t even angry. It was exhausted. Tired of pretending and hiding.

“I hoped that was what was happening,” Mor grumbled.

“Don’t,” Cassian growled, the movement jostling his bandaged ribs. “We aren’t doing this, Mor.”

“Like hells we aren’t.”

“Let me rephrase,” Cassian’s voice took on a tone he had never directed at Mor in 500 years of friendship, “I am not doing this with you.”

Mor staggered back a full step, dramatic as always. “You would choose her over-“

“Don’t finish that sentence,” Cassian spoke to the canvas wall. “You won’t like the answer.”

“When I learned of Feyre’s arrival in Prythian, I was overcome with joy,” mor stared down at her hands. “We all were.” The wind whipped hard against the weak barrier of the healing tent. How Cassian longed for his own tent. His own bed. No, how he longed for someone else’s bed. “Because we knew we were to gain a sister.”

“What is your point?“ Cassian ignored the shadows that seeped in at the edges of the tent, just as confused by his duress as they were consumed by Mor’s almost tears.

“My point is that this is different,” Mor sighed, “Because this time, with this Archeron, I will be losing a brother.”

“That is so unfair.” Cassian made the effort to contract his bruised ribs and torn muscles up enough that he was sitting straight and staring at his friend. “Whether or not you lose me is entirely your own choice, Morrigan.”

“The fact that losing you is even a possibility makes you someone quite different from the male I knew of a year ago.”

“War changes us all.” Azriel’s voice was steady and welcome as he ducked quickly into the tent, pulling shadows that knew not where else to go along with him. “As it must.”

“What happened?” Cassian sensed the change in his brother immediately. Azriel was always haunted. Quiet and aloof, but he was never callous. Not where Mor was concerned.

“I just returned from the temple in Sangravah.” He said the words simply, but Cassian read easily between them.

“Hybern took the temple, then.”

“No,” Azriel’s eyes darkened, “but he took many things that can never be returned.”

The dead glaze that covered his brother’s eyes was answer enough. Truth enough. Cassian knew what war was. Knew the never deserved consequences of being a pretty young priestess at a temple that guarded a necessary object.

“They are safe now,” he whispered. Not a question, but a reassurance. He knew his brother. Those women would have been well taken care of.

“Only one chose to leave.”

Mor tilted her head to the side. Truths washing across her skin.

“She will shape this world.” The words were barely her own. Strange, how she could know things so definitely and yet be so oblivious.

“That does not surprise me at all,” Azriel nodded with an uncharacteristic sort of reverence.

“All of this,” Cassian turned back to Mor, “and your greatest concern is who I choose to spend my time with?”

“Not your time,” Mor said quietly, “your eternity.”

“My eternity is none of your concern.”

“But it was. Once.”

Cassian swallowed. “And it may be again. The choice, as I have said, is entirely your own.”

Mor shrunk back, clearly displeased with the ultimatum.

Azriel rise an eyebrow, but asked no further questions. His mind, Cassian could tell, was entirely elsewhere.

I've been thinking a lot about why people are so mad about Azriel's bonus chapter and the biggest thing seems to be that they read his outrage as feeling somehow... Entitled to Elain. And I can see that, I guess, if you completely disregard literally everything about him lmao.

This is a man who has always been the outcast. He was abused and locked away as a CHILD because people were afraid of him. Do y'all realize how damaging it is to be so thoroughly othered from the time you are born? It has been so violently inprinted into his mind that he doesn't belong, that he is other, that he is somehow lesser, because of how he was treated as a child. Because of how some people STILL treat him! Cassian earned the begrudging respect of the Illyrians but none of them want anything to do with Azriel even now. He struggles, constantly, with these feelings. It's obvious in everything he does.

Cassian and Rhysand love him, dearly. There's no doubt about that. They know he belongs right there in Velaris with them, they know without a single doubt in their hearts that regardless of blood he is their brother.

But he doesn't. That damage runs deep. He will never, never feel fully totally secure in his worthiness to be associated with these people who he loves so much they may as well have put the moon in the sky for him.

Now imagine that everyone around you has scorned and hated you your entire life, save for two people. Two people who you could see yourself in- outcasts, bastards, unwanted, abused. And you grow alongside them, you watch them flourish, and together you become the most accomplished bastards in history.

And then the universe itself unites them both with beautiful, powerful, amazing mates who love them just as much. Sisters for your brothers whom you adore so deeply.

And then the universe itself seems to tell you that you are not worthy of your own mate. You are not worthy of the third sister.

You are not worthy because you do not belong. You do not deserve your brothers' love and you do not deserve to be a part of them.

You will never belong. Those people who burned you, who beat you, who locked you away, were right. You are a monster. You do not belong.

Do I reread both Crescent City books or finally start the From Blood and Ash series...

[dreammoutlouddd]

thinking about how if SJM writes House of Flame and Shadow as part of the Crescent City series, the book itself will probably be black and all sorts of dark colors and it’ll be beautiful😍

What I don’t understand about the whole “Az and Elain are together and living in the townhouse because Bryce said it smelled like bread and roses” argument is, do they really think that Azriel, spymaster, notorious protective, paranoid bat, would bring an unknown threat, one covered in blood and carrying a sword nonetheless, to his home, to a place where the female he “loves” lives? No, he wouldn’t.
