@nessianweek | Day 05: Behind Closed Doors
Sarah J Maas was once asked during an interview, “What would be the perfect modern-day dates for the ACOMAF couples?”
Sarah said that, “Nesta and Cassian would go to a private island or the Maldives where they would have some quality time alone” 😉☺️
@/kotikomori nailed this perfectly, and showed the sweetness of their mate bond. Thank you @/kotikomori for this devastatingly beautiful artwork of Nesta and Cassian!

My first idea for this art was to focus on the dialogue from the Acosf Prison scene, where Cassian says “I can’t risk you” and this phrase was repeated at a time when they were alone, after Bryce returned the mask to Nesta, because I believe it is one of the reasons, among others, for Cassian to be “the most furious” person with Nesta in that situation. However, the same Acosf Prison scene develops in a way that allows me to believe that Cassian recognizes that he should believe her. So I decided that, in response to Nesta’s “I’m fine” after the worlds were safe, in part because of the decision she made, he would again respond with an “I don’t know why I doubted you”, because I want Cassian to increasingly allow himself to consider Nesta’s perspective first, instead of criticizing her in favor of others, especially in cases where she is the most appropriate person to assess the situation.
My dear Jaque made this wonderful illustration, which I was super excited to share, and I don’t have enough words to praise and thank her.

Viviane and Kallias really did get one of the best possible deals when it comes to mating bonds.
They've been friends since childhood (and he'd always loved her). I love a good friends-to-lovers story.
He did everything he could to keep her safe and trusted her with his court.
He flings out the last of his magic to tell her he loves her and asks to keep their people safe. She spends fifty years doing so and thinking about his words and what he means to her.
The minute he's free and reunites with her she kisses him and they decide to get married.
The bond snaps on their wedding night.
They're happily married with a baby on the way.
They really did get the most seamless and smooth deal of the gang and I absolutely love that for them.
More of Them. uwu
Was finally brave enough to start ACOSF and put my fear aside of this one being where I’d begin to legitimately hate the IC because I really like Nesta, esp in ACOFAS—
but the book got a lot easier when I decided to take their anger towards her with a grain of salt. PLUS I accepted that Feyre understands her sister better than anybody else in that fucking universe (Pre-Valkyries of course, because I haven’t gotten to them yet.)
Nesta loves, and hurts, and hates too much…. She is both unintentionally overly sensitive and purposefully ruthless.
A key note about Nesta though, is that she spits vitriol at everyone because it is safer and easier for her to have every single fucking person in her intimate vicinity hate her, than it is to love AND TO LOSE THEM!
She gets to the point where she even does the heavy lifting for them, she presents herself in her worst form and internally goes: “See? Aren’t I awful? Don’t you hate even the mere sight of me? I sure do. I am a piece of shit that doesn’t deserve your time, or your care, or your consideration. I hate me. So you should hate me too and fuck off already.”
At the end of the day, I wish people gave more grace to people who purposefully self isolate, self harm, and forceably push others away.
It is a defense mechanism. A shitty but odd, sickly form of a self-soothing coping strategy for control and power when you have none else in the most meaningful areas of your life.
And on a lighter note, I wish people actually enjoyed bitchy women more in media! Nesta is so fun without even trying to be.
And it’s even funnier that these immortal beings, who have lived 500 to 10,000 YEARS, manage to let a 25 year old with the size and attitude of a wet, 3 week old kitten get them so fucking unreasonably angry at her.
She’s a baby in comparison to you, dude. You are basically beefing with a toddler, my guy. That isn’t funny to you? It’s funny to me.
Because y'all love selective reading...
Nesta doesn't care about anyone but herself.
refusing to leave Cassian as he dies in ACOWAR
"What I care about is making sure no children-fae or human-are harmed."
Staying by Cassian's side as he dies in ACOSF
Staying behind so that her friends could survive the rite.
"She would save him, save them, even if it took everything."
Nesta needs to acknowledge what Feyre did for her/how she treated her!
"But beneath the wall, I witnessed children-entire families-starve to death. Were it not for my sister...I would be among them."
"It consumed me so much that...that I let Feyre go into that forest and told myself I didn't care."
"Wished someone would smother the voice that whispered every horrible thing she'd ever done, every awful thought she'd had, every person she'd failed."
"You loved me when no one else would. You never stopped. Even when I didn't deserve it, you loved me, and fought for me."
"I swallowed my shout of pain as Nesta's arms went around my neck, and she embraced me so hard it snatched my breath away." "Her body shook, shook as she sobbed, and said over and over and over, thank you."
Nesta didn't experience enough trauma to act the way she did!
girl, bye be so fr
comparing trauma is gross, and if you think you have any right to do so, you won't fit in on my page :)
Nesta thinks she is superior to everyone around her.
"I am worthless and I am nothing. I hate everything I am, and I am so, so tired. I am tired of wanting to be anywhere but in my own head."
"You're right to hide your children from me, I am the monster you fear."
"She had been suffering, and he'd had no idea how much it consumed every facet of her life. He'd seen her self-loathing and anger-but hadn't realized how much she'd been away of it. How much it had eaten her up."
Nesta can never allow anyone to love her.
"Nesta leaned forward until their brows touched. And despite all that brimmed in her heart, all that flowed through her body, sure and true, she merely whispered, thank you."
"I love you, too, Feyre whispered to her sister, and smiled. Nesta didn't stop her sob as she launched herself onto Feyre and embraced her."
"I didn't know how long my sisters and I lay there together, just like we had once shared that carved bed in that dilapidated cottage. Then-back then, we had kicked and twisted and fought for any bit of space, any breathing room. But that morning, as the sun rose over the world, we held tight. And we did not let go."
THIS is the cassian i want to SEE!!!!! yes please tell your high lord to back the fuck off!! king!!
I want Mor to say something mean about Nesta in front of Emerie and Emerie puts Mor in her place.
Mor: *Bitching about Nesta*
Emerie: For someone who came from a place who didn't think much of women and treated them like cattle, I'd think you'd be a bit more understanding and open to getting to know the real Nesta instead of judging her on just outside appearances. I'm disappointed in you Mor and I can not continue being around you until your attitude changes towards my best friend.
Mor: *Left speechless as Emerie walks away*
Feyre: Can you keep a secret?
Azriel: Do you know anything about my life?
Feyre: No, I do not. Good point.

Can I ask WHY ACOSF had to be about making Cassian a courtier and Nesta a warrior when the storyline of brilliant, cunning, kill you with her political skills Nesta and strong, rutheless, kill you by just killing you Cassian is RIGHT THERE?
Like you wrote the line, Sarah - “he would be her sword.”
Imagine the dynamic that would create - I can practically HEAR Rhys smirking and plucking invisible lint as he goes over a political problem he’d rather not wage war over - “First, we send Nesta. Then, if she deems it necessary … her mate can join her.”
Nesta: laying out terms for a treaty, “this is our final offer and you would be wise to accept it before we are forced to take further action”
Courtier(snarling, probably): “Yeah, you and what army?”
Cassian (busting through the doors with like 6 weapons strapped to him): “THAT’D BE ME PRETTY BOY THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY???”
Another one thank you 🫠💞
