the beginning of everything: After the war, Gwyn and Azriel are sent on a diplomatic visit to the lantern festival at the Autumn Court.

Our final featured fic is Rules for Spies by @houseofhurricane!

Thank you everyone for participating in this fun little game and we cannot wait to celebrate Gwynriel Weeks with you all!

Synopsis:

When she meets his eye, it’s like those times when they glance at each other during training, when they’re in perfect agreement for an extended, shining moment. Azriel extends his hand, his Siphon gleaming cobalt and his fingers bare even in this cold, the scars an intricate mark of whatever he himself has survived. “Welcome to the mission, Gwyn,” he says, and Gwyn wants to savor it, the feeling of his hand wrapped around hers, his long fingers brushing her wrist. The approval she sees in those lovely eyes. She could swear she sees one of his shadows make its way up her arm. ~ While Azriel and Gwyn work to free Koschei’s captives, attraction turns into something more.

This is so kind, thank you! I really appreciate you featuring Rules for Spies ♥️

i feel like the youth should be reminded that the point of shipping is not for a ship to become canon. the point of shipping is to collect all the canon crumbs like starved mice, run away cackling and make some fun little scenarios with them just for the hell of it.

ao3commentoftheday

you're not turning your fandom hobby into a job are you? giving yourself deadlines and quotas that you have to meet? focusing on the numbers instead of your enjoyment of the act of creation?

ao3commentoftheday

you're not taking your love of something and using it as a tool to hurt yourself are you? loving it so hard that you forget to take care of yourself? telling yourself that people only care about you because of what you make and that they'll stop if you take a break? pushing yourself to work instead of rest so that the thing that used to give you joy and energy is now also burning you out, like everything else?

God I want Elain to be chubbier in her book

I want her to lament about how much weight she's gained and how she used to be thin and lithe and lady-like and thinks of it as a moral failing. But as time goes on she starts to accept her body both in terms of her weight and being fae. She grows to appreciate her stomach and hips and find new ways to wear clothes that flatter her. And she remembers how thin and depressed she was when she first became fae and how much healing shes gone through and her weight gain is proof of that

And of course Lucien crawling on his hands and knees and drooling over her but whatever

This is a slow fandom zone

None of that "Oh no they bomb-dropped all the episodes in a week 1 month ago, I'm late!" "The tag hasn't been active all week is the fandom dead?" "I only got a hundred shares the first hour no one cares about my art"

Slow down

Take a deep breath and slow down

Fandom is YOU. And me and everyone. If we doodle stick figures for a show that ended 30 years ago we aren't "late" or "doing too little", we're playing dolls in our own time and having fun with works of art that mean a lot to us

You can literally watch and engage with something that aired in 2004 as if it aired yesterday

If the tag hasn't been active for 14 months guess what? If YOU post there, it isn't dead. Literally you can talk about anything you want whenever you want there is no weird law against watching things that people aren't actively talk about

Let's be deranged about stories together

acourtofthought

Elain will definitely lead her book (the way Nesta led hers and Cassian played more of a supporting role) and I can't wait but with that said: I'm ready for Lucien's story. Are you ready for Lucien's story? This was written into book 1: "His father has never apologized, and his brothers are too frightened of me to risk harming him. But he has never forgotten what they did to her, or what his brothers tried to do to him. Even if he pretends that he has."

Sarah introduced a plot for him all the way back from the very start of the series, even before she knew that the sisters would play a bigger role. She set the stage for his future revenge on those in the Autumn Court who have wronged him and we've yet to see it's resolution though SF seems to be laying the groundwork for that to finally come to pass, what with Beron now setting his sights on Spring and looking to ally with Koschei. With Eris showing up at Vassa's / Jurian's to "feel them out" but no mention of doing the same for Lucien which Cassian noted. With us being reminded of the cruelty Lucien suffered at Beron's hands and the new information that Eris was tortured by him. I'm definitely looking forward to our future ACOTAR Sun Lord getting his due and finally rising.

My asks are open for Gwynriel prompts!

I want to write some one-shots.

Help me ease back into this pairing so I can dive back into the epic “my version of ACOTAR 5” Gwynriel fic that’s kicking around in my brain.

#gwynriel #my asks are open

houseofhurricane

Look, I can’t promise anything, as I have an eight-month-old baby and am lately quite bad at finishing writing projects, not to mention the fact that I’ve been MIA in the ACOTAR fandom for a long, long while, but…I’ve been working on a Gwynriel fic again.

There’s something about these two that always feels like coming home.

JUST IN TIME

houseofhurricane

This feels like peer pressure and I cannot emphasize enough how much I need it!

#one cannot disappoint mb #the one acotar fandom rule i acknowledge

There’s something about these two that always feels like coming home.

#gwynriel #lamest return from hiatus ever?#yes the world is on fire but the fanfic still needs to get written

separatist-apologist

Azris fic recs please? I am more of a plot person though obviously I don't dislike the porn. The best plots you have read recs.

Anyone is welcome to add to this list if they'd like! This isn't comprehensive, just some of the ones I've really enjoyed, with a mix of plot (and some porn sorry anon but I am a simple girl).

Our Bodies, Possessed By Light by @iftheshoef1tz

After Koschei’s war, Prythian rebuilds. While the Inner Circle grapples with the burden of responsibility, they are forced to face the consequences of their choices, both past and present. Azriel finds himself at the center of trouble brewing in the Hewn City, with a certain Vanserra brother sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong.

There is always a price for freedom.

Decode This Case by @witch-and-her-witcher

There couldn't be worse timing for the new allegations against Night Co's coder as Azriel struggles with his emotional state of isolation and loneliness as his family and friends seem to move on without him. Enter Eris Vanserra to make Azriel's life even more complicated, smug and regrettably handsome as ever.

Eris has impeccable timing - or is it all just careful calculations? Whatever has aligned their reunion, he knows nothing will be accomplished until he can pull Azriel from his fog.

Only Know You Love Him When You Let Him Go by @fieldofdaisiies

Almost exactly a year after their painful breakup, Azriel and Eris unexpectedly meet again and find themselves trapped together in a snowstorm. With no choice but to spend time together in a small space, the long hours lead to conversations of their past, memories of their adventures togethers, unresolved feelings and heartbreak…

Once More To See You by @buffy-vanserra

Days after Feyre and Lucien are rescued from the Winter Court border, Eris finds Azriel snooping in his father’s woods. They fall into old habits and discuss a path forward.

Or: The story of how Eris entered his alliance with the Night Court

Just Enough Light to Cast Shadows by @jules-writes-stories

Eris Vanserra has been plotting to overthrow his father for centuries. But when the High Lord’s removal becomes a matter of life and death, Eris allies with the Day Court. In his desperate quest, he unearths secrets that will change the course of Autumn Court history, and all of Prythian's, even as his mating bond pulls him towards a male who will only ever see him as a cruel prince.

Rhysand becomes suspicious, ordering his spymaster to keep watch of the Autumn prince. But the more time Azriel spends with him, the more he is drawn to Eris’s cause.

When desire and duty collide, the Shadowsinger is faced with an impossible choice. Will Azriel take Eris at his word, or fulfill his role as Night’s brutal enforcer? And what will become of Autumn’s heir?

games without frontiers by @houseofhurricane

Azriel and Eris, in the Autumn Court at the winter solstice. But who has the knife?

My Heart's Aflame, My Body's Strained (But God I Like It) by @acourtofladydeath

What happened when Azriel brought Eris back to the Hewn City after saving him from Koschei at the end of ACOSF?

I Want To Believe by @secret-third-thing

Azriel travels to Boston to solve a murder case and leaves having experienced Alien dick. Or.... X-files / Roswell, but make it acotar.

Betting Like You Know The Odds by @fourteentrout

"But, if you so choose to believe my display of weakness was entirely genuine, then perhaps a rematch is in order." Eris suggested to Nesta, his mouth twisting into a smile a bit different from his others of the night. Something less soft around the edges, less weighed down by inebriation.

"Well, then, one could argue that it would be just as unfair. You're a High Lord now, after all." Rhys pointed out. Eris' smile melted away naturally, and he reclined back in his spot, throwing a hand around the back of the sofa.

"Why don't we ask him what he thinks? Shadowsinger," Eris called, jutting his chin right towards where Azriel stood, wreathed in shadows. "What are the odds that you could hold up in a fight now that I'm a High Lord?"

Azriel stood rooted to the spot, as if he were in a nightmare. He stared directly at Eris' smoldering eyes. Eris stared back.

Say it With Your Fists for Once by @mudandmire

After their close-call with Briallyn and Koschei's plot, Azriel and Eris crash-land somewhere near the western coast and have an all-out brawl about it.

After blood and tension cools, Azriel begins to put pieces together much to Eris's trepidation and the shadow's delight.

Counter Tension by @ninthcircleofprythian

Eris is wound up tight in more ways than one

Your Scars on My Pulse by @shadowsandlint

For Azris Week 2024. A story following each prompt, where Eris Vanserra navigates an increasingly more confusing relationship with his nemesis-turned-ally.

Eris is haunted by what happened between him and Azriel at the High Lord Meeting, and feels completely overtaken by the male's accursed presence. His usual snarky comments land him in trouble when the furious shadowsinger wraps his raging hands around his neck in front of the whole assembly.

"A mixture of surprise and panic had taken over Eris, sending his body into a wild, meaningless thrashing, but before he could hope to regain control of his limbs, a third, more confusing feeling had entered him. Azriel’s all-consuming presence had sent a shock wave into the place in his chest where air was supposed to be, and in its absence, a spark of joy had lit up the vacated darkness. The recognition of this had so thoroughly bewildered Eris that all hope of fighting had evaporated, and the bewilderment hadn’t left him since."

Tell me what you want by @lady-of-tearshed

Azriel had too much to drink at a boring High Lord meeting. He decides it would be a great idea to drag Eris Vanserra, new High Lord of the Autumn Court, to an empty bedroom and kiss him with everything he has.

houseofhurricane

I love this list — thank you for including me on it! Looks like I need to catch up on some Azris fics 😍

this tweet has given me more motivation to stretch than any "it's good for you" post ever will

the-cassquatch

I want to recommend qigong, and particularly shifu Yan Xin's youtube channel. He has GREAT energy. Qigong especially is amazing for working your lungs and other core muscles, and it's low intensity so it's relatively easy to do. For someone like me that didn't start doing regular stretching until I was 30, it's a great way to begin!

Writing a novel when you imagine all you stories in film format is hard because there’s really no written equivalent of “lens flare” or “slow motion montage backed by Gregorian choir”

audacityinblack

You can get the same effect of a lens flare with close-detail descriptions, combined with breaks to new paragraphs.

Your slow-motion montage backed by a Gregorian choir can be done with a few technques that all involve repetition.

First is epizeuxis, the repeating of a word for emphasis.

Example:

Falling. Falling. Falling. There was nothing to keep Marie from plunging into the rolling river below. She could only hope for a miracle now, that she would come out alive somehow despite a twenty-foot drop into five-foot-deep water.

Then there’s anaphora, where you write a number of phrases with the same words at the beginning.

There were still mages out there living in terror of shining steel armor emblazoned with the Sword of Mercy.

There were still mages out there being forced by desperation into the clutches of demons.

There were mages out there being threatened with Tranquility as punishment for their disobedience, and the threats were being made good upon.

Mages who had attempted to flee, but knew nothing of the outside world and were forced to return to their prison out of need for sustenance and shelter.

Mages who only desired to find the families they were torn from.

Mages who only wanted to see the sun.

This kind of repetition effectively slows the pace of your writing and puts the focus on that small scene. That’s where you get your slow pan. The same repetition also has a subtle musicality to it depending on the words you use. That’s where you get the same vibe as you might get from a Gregorian choir.

sarahtaylorgibson

Damn I made relatable reblog- bait post and writer Tumblr went hard with it. This is legitimately very good advice.

ariaste

For more neat tricks (aka figures of rhetoric) like epizeuxis and anaphora, read THE ELEMENTS OF ELOQUENCE by Mark Forsyth. It’s both educational and delightful, not to mention overflowing with wry wit. Great book.
