I've been in the SGE fandom since early 2017, but wasn't very active online til around 2020
I post fics, fanart, a variety of reblogs, and the occasional awful meme
You can find my writing @feathers_and_thorns on Ao3
Despite how small it is, the SGE fandom was and still is important to me as one of my first and favorite fandoms. Many thanks to the SGE fic writers and artists who inspired me to write my own stories and become a more active part of the community!
Thank you guys so much for the support on the first SGE post i made, thought i'd continue the character sketches! featuring the best side characters ever 😈
fyi, this is my personal interpretation based on the book descriptions!
Figured I’d start with some little Coven headcannons
Hester
Tall, like 5’10”-6’
I like the idea that she has a slight German accent considering her mothers fairy tales origin
Fell harder (Hestadil)
I’ve seen a lot of art I really like but I think my favorite style for her is shorter hair (+bonus I think the red is connected to her demon not dyed)
I would find it interesting if she had some burn scars from being there while her moms fairy tale played out
Anadil
Shorter than Hester but not short, like 5’5”-5’7”
RICH family, I love that that’s the case in most fanfics (my favorite one that displays this is Malevolence by feathers_and_thorns on ao3 it’s so good)
Really good at singing but no one knows except the coven, like gorgeous soprano (+bonus sang to Hester each time she helped her recover when she got hurt)
Fell first (Hestadil)
I’ve always believed her eyes were red, I don’t actually remember if they were in the book? but that’s what I’ve always thought they were
Dot
Short, like 5’3” or 5’4”
Clocked Hestadil immediately
“MOM AND DAD ARE FIGHTING” when Hester and Anadil have a disagreement
Her and Hester bake together, only Anadil knows
Pansexual probably, with her loving nature I can just see her not caring about gender (+bonus ✨Kiko✨)
My School for Good and Evil fanfics over the last five years! Most of my fics focus on Hester, Anadil, Dot, or a combination of these characters.
Multi-chapter Fics
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is a post-canon fic that focuses on Hester & Anadil’s relationship, Anadil’s complex relationship with her mother and childhood, and Hester’s backstory. It is genuinely one of my favorite things I’ve ever written (and the longest too!). There is also a moodboard and Spotify playlist for this fic.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This fic takes place between books 3 and 4 and focuses on Dot’s backstory and relationship with her father, as well as the friendship between Dot and Anadil. I had a lot of fun writing this, as Anadil and Dot’s friendship outside of Hester isn’t ever really explored in the books.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is a Hestadil AU set in the 90’s in which Anadil is hired to tutor Hester after her declining mental health causes her grades to slip. The chapters are pretty short, and I think it’s interesting to look back on even if it isn’t my favorite fic I’ve written.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is another post-canon Hestadil fic, completely unrelated to Malevolence. It mainly focuses on Hester’s backstory and relationship with Anadil, but there are aspects that touch on Dot’s resentment at being left behind and Anadil’s emotional struggles too. This was my first fic in the SGE fandom, and even though I originally posted it to Wattpad when I was fourteen, I think it holds up pretty well.
Oneshots
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is a companion fic to Treasured Bonds that focuses on Hester, but you don’t have to read that fic to understand this one. This is based on the letters in the SGE official handbook.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is another companion to Treasured Bonds that focuses on the entire coven, but I recommend reading that and the above oneshot before reading this one. They’re grouped in a “series” on Ao3.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This oneshot is set after book 3 and focuses on Dot dealing with the negative treatment she underwent in the first arc.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is a short comedy fic I wrote for my friend’s birthday and decided to post. It’s about Sophie wanting to become the new School Master.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Notes: This is a Hestadil oneshot that takes place between books 1 and 2. I wrote it when I was in middle school and haven’t reread it in years (not since I reposted it on Ao3 three years ago) so I apologize if it’s bad haha.
Anyways, if you read/have read any of these, I hope you enjoy! I know that SGE is a pretty niche fandom nowadays and has been for a few years now (especially in regards to a focus on side characters like the Coven) so I always appreciated all of the support. :)
