Eris definitely drank too much champagne at the Starfall ball in Velaris. But it looks as though a hangover isn’t the only problem he's left to contend with…

Summary and taglist below the cut.
A very silly Elucien fic with an Eris Vanserra POV, inspired by the works of Oscar Wilde.
Rated M, Chapters 5/6, Elucien endgame
Summary:
Charm, style, speedy proposals and a villainous reputation… Eris Vanserra would be the perfect main character in an Oscar Wilde drawing room comedy. So now he is one.
In a Prythian re-imagined as Victorian England, Eris is enjoying a life of leisure as temporary steward of the Spring Court. That is, until a letter from the Night Court threatens to reveal a very delicate secret…
Brace yourself for Wilde-style tropes such as: double lives, mistaken identity, unnecessary flirtation, attempts at wit, overuse of adverbs, unforgivable idiocy, inept clergymen, backstage debauchery, comedic misunderstandings, convenient couplings, soft everyone, and a handbag.
“I’ve now realised, for the first time in my life, the vital Importance of Being Eris.”
(Hopefully this goes without saying, but... this fic is not to be taken too seriously!)
Also a huge thanks to @themadmorrigan for guiding me through the Canva banner process, @chaol-apologist and @tinyy-jj for beta reading this chapter for me, and @saradika-graphics for the gorgeous art nouveau dividers!
