Could you ever choose between Eris or Azriel cause I know I never could

Nope lol. May depend on the time of season you ask. It goes back to my previous ask & one of the reasons I enjoy Eris x Azriel x Reader…

por qué no los dos? (why don’t we have both?)

[prythianpages]

I think the idea of Az x reader x Eris poly sounds like comedic gold but realistically I could never see either of them sharing anything like at all,, they’re just too greedy like that but alas this is what fanfiction is for LMAOOO

Since neither of them have been in a romantic relationship (or at least that we know of so far in the books), it’s really hard to know how they’d be like or what kind of lover they’d be. Sure, we do have some ideas based off of what we’ve read so far.

We do know they really don’t like each other rn in canon…but hate is a passionate emotion 😏

It is the beauty of fanfiction! I enjoy reading love triangles with them, regardless of it’s a poly ending or one ends of heart broken.

To what the last anon said, I always thought it was kinda weird how the ACOTAR fandom (and even the author herself) can be so non-woke when most of the topics in the books point in the opposite direction. For example, it felt pretty obvious to me from the start that Mor was a lesbian. So when I got into the fandom and started looking at TikTok content, I was genuinely BAFFLED to find out that so many people primarily ship her with ERIS of all people 😭😭 There were so many theories that said shit like "I headcanon that they’re secretly mates and only Eris knows" boy yk damn well 😕 I think it has so much to do with the fact that the majority of people who read the series are misogynistic "BookTok" girlies that are only here for "spicy" scenes and nothing else

Yeah, everyone interprets things differently and come up with their own theories. I’m all for people having their different opinions but some theories can be questionable 😅

But that’s also why I love fanfiction. I like reading different interpretations and theories (preferably ones that make a little sense y’know.) I feel like sometimes fic writers even add more depth to these characters we love.

I have nothing against the booktok girlies or the popular books/series within booktok. (I’m not saying you do either, anon. Just saying it more as a preface.) Bc I eat up these cliches too & they’re fun reads & any type of reading is better than no reading.

But we are going through a literacy crisis 😅 I had seen a tiktok of a girl who said she was able to read so many books because she only read the dialogue. Or some complaining when they read books and there’s too many words. Which to each their own but that’s how people don’t pick up on context & that’s what can lead to missing the plot.

Hello! I wanted to ask something out of curiosity, and you absolutely don’t have to answer if you’d rather not.

I really enjoyed your fics when I first found them, but I’ve noticed that a lot of people in the ACOTAR fandom (and SJM herself) have been supporting Zionism. I know that enjoying a piece of media doesn’t automatically mean you share every belief of its creator — just like not every Harry Potter fan is transphobic and racist because of J.K. Rowling.

That’s why I wanted to ask whether you write about ACOTAR simply because you enjoy the series, or if you also actively support the author herself. I completely understand that some people prefer to keep politics separate from their fandom spaces, so there’s genuinely no pressure to answer. I just wanted to ask because I like your content, and it helps me feel more comfortable supporting creators when I know where they stand on certain issues. Especially when it comes to Palestine.

Of course, you don’t owe me an explanation, and I appreciate your work regardless. ❤️

I was not aware that there were some Zionism in the ACOTAR fandom 😅 with SJM, I have been aware and I was disheartened when I saw it awhile back. Same way I was disheartened with JK Rowling and her transphobia.

I write for this fandom and have written some Harry Potter AUs in the past too because I love the series. I don’t support the authors and try to separate from them. It is a gray area when it comes to separating the art from the artists in some cases. Like you’ve fallen in love with the stories and characters but are upset and conflicted when it comes to the author themselves. Even more so when you weren’t aware of the author’s beliefs before you got into their works.

I do not support the genocide of the Palestinians or any hatred towards any group of people. It’s free Palestine 🇵🇸❤️, fuck ICE and any form of racism!

Happy Pride too! 🏳️‍🌈💜

not now kitten, mommy needs to get up off her ass and overcome her fear of writing poorly because it's better than not writing at all.

[prythianpages]

I was tryna come up with a happy!Eris request but all i can think about rn is young Eris in his 20s-ish getting "trained" by his father and girlfriend!reader taking care of him fluff 🥹

Eris always pairs well with angst lmao but we can soften the blow by giving him some fluff in the end. I actually have a WIP that follows this general gist!

It’d be part of my the mark he left behind au. I’ll revisit the draft and see if I can finish it! I want to say it’s the next update to the series too

[prythianpages]

I’m not sure how this would work timeline-wise tbh (but everything works in fanfiction), but the thought of Nyx and Eris’s kids having a little childhood crush on each other is the funniest thing ever to me!!

Though now that I think about it, this still somehow involves Eris suffering (it’s not angst though, so it’s fine). I’m just imagining Rhys and Eris constantly competing over dad duties while their wives are completely over it.

“See? I changed that diaper faster than you.”

“Shut up, those were mediocre changing techniques.”

Meanwhile their kids are playing peacefully in the corner while Rhys and Eris are treating fatherhood like an Olympic sport

It’s Eris suffering but very mild compared to what he’s unfortunately been used to lol

I can’t promise anything but I’ll see what I can cook with this 💜 maybe a small drabble over this where we see girl dad Eris? 👀

I hope that Eris gets a happy ending in the series. Because if he does, I can see the high lord babies hanging out and being more unified 🥺

[prythianpages]

I rly rly love all of ur fics but did you ever write smth happy about Eris 💔💔🙏 my boy is always going through it wether it’s in canon or fanfiction someone give him a break yo

I do love making Eris suffer haha. I actually didn’t realize all he’s done is suffer in my fics. But he does get happy endings in 2 of my series, I just haven’t gotten that far yet 😅

Eris and angst pairs so well. I would like to write something happy for him. Just don’t know what 🤔

[prythianpages]

kinda getting the urge to edit & possibly rewrite some of my az x mermaid au 🤔

[prythianpages]

I started my editing and am just surprised I actually wrote something new 🫪 dw, I’m not changing the main plot! Just shifting some details & my goal is to add a bit more scenes/context.

kinda getting the urge to edit & possibly rewrite some of my az x mermaid au 🤔

[prythianpages]

finished lover awakened (book 3 of the black dagger brotherhood series) and I’m not okay 😭

[prythianpages]

Hello hello, the sea has brought me back after overflowing with work and life itself 😭😭😭😭 and oh how i have missed your writings, your comments, and all the lore in general. I just recently saw all the talking about mermaids top and the idea of persuading Eris with mermaid skills and omg really how I have missed all the world you have created 😭😭😭 i hope life is treating you nice and everything is going right, I know I need something like that right now but anyway, sending a sea 🤭🤭 of good vibes, love and positive thoughts ✨️✨️✨️

Hi!!! So good to see (hear) from you! 🥰

I miss my little mermaid au too 🥺 this year is going by so fast! I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve updated. Work, life and world stress has really drained me. But I am switching jobs end of June and am hoping to have a change in pace. I’ve also been reading and catching up with tv shows. Consuming any form of media always gives me inspo and motivation to write, which I have been feeling! 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 that I can cook something up soon!

I was thinking about mermaid’s persuasion/siren skills and thought maybe to test her skill, the inner circle would like to see it first. Azriel, of course, offers to be the one sirened (is this even a word?? lol but you know what I mean.) IC don’t let him bc this man is whipped and would do anything for her anyway. So they volunteer Cassian 😂 idk what they would make her siren him to do.

Mermaid can lure people in with her voice. The more she did it, the less singing she had to do. But it’ll always be more powerful when she actually sings. (Her singing definitely has an effect on Azriel, which was kind of hinted at when he woke up from a heated dream about her.)

Thank you for the positive vibes 🌊💙 hope work and life ease up for you too!!!

I know it's almost summer, but what about mermaid's first time seeing snow? xx

This one has been on my requests/ideas for a bit but I started overthinking it when I learned about marine snow 😭

I feel like mermaid would be freaked out over it in the beginning. But still don’t know if I should go the “I love this!”/what’s this jack skellington vibe or keep her a little apprehensive (but it’d grow on her!)

So if you or anyone would like to toy ideas with either scenario, I’m down 👉🏽👈🏽

Though I can say for certain that if it ever hails in Prythian, she’d hate it. Like what do you mean the water is trying to hurt me?? Type of vibe lol

[prythianpages]

I imagine that if Az ever saw mermaid wearing this Rhys would have to find a new Spymaster because Az would no longer know how to function.

omg there would be a storm of emotions raging on inside of him! His brain would stop working for a moment 😂 and his shadows would freeze too

I did want to write a bit where they’d like to use mermaid’s persuasion/siren skills on Eris so they take her to the court of nightmares. Idk when in the timeline this will take place, maybe after they’re established? Essentially, Azriel doesn’t want anyone to know about their connection for safety purposes.

So mermaid is going to be introduced as nobility from Summer and because of this, she does not make the grand entrance with them. Mor is the one who takes her there and helps her get dressed. Mermaid is not afraid of showing more skin so she’d def wear a top like that. Az has no idea what she’s wearing but as soon as he sees her, this is the vibe I’m going for:

hot and bothered and horny but can’t act on it or at least shouldn’t act on it

Meanwhile mermaid walks by like:

Az would retire as spymaster bc there’s no way he’d be able to focus when his girl is walking around wearing that

(but more so bc no one knows they’re together, if that makes sense. His jealousy would take over. He’d be a little more chill if their relationship was publicly known, still hot and horny but not as bothered lol)
