i just saw the eiris inspo pic you rb’d of that couple in the ocean, and that woman’s arm is so pale my mind immediately put eris’s pasty ass in her position and made myself giggle thinking about the following:
✨ eris having to paint on spf 75 (at minimum) every 45 minutes on the dot (as a fellow redhead, i can confirm)
✨ eris clinging onto iris to A be annoying but also because
✨ B — and here me out here — he might be a little spooked?? autumn is not a beachy place and it’s big and unpredictable and unknowable! iris calls him out and ofc he’s like “i am not scared, i just don’t trust it.” ☠️☠️
✨ he starts talking about dropoffs and riptides and iris is just like “i will throw you into one on purpose if you don’t get off of me”
so yeah. eiris beach day
Hahahahhaha I love this! Iris would 100% make so much fun of him for it but secretly thinks it's SO cute. It's like you're reading my mind tbh because I have this little post about them having a beach day.
Eris likes the beach in theory but in reality, it takes him a while to warm up to it. This man rarely knows what "relaxing" means or how to do it lol. He's sunscreening aggressively, wearing a hat and sunglasses and laying only under the umbrella. He will NOT risk his skin thank you very much.
Do you have any head cannons of Iris healing eris? Because I can totally see, in the fun moments, eris getting a paper cut and being SUPER dramatic about it. Like Disney princess throwing himself on the nearest available surface and sobbing type of dramatic, but iris of course is happy to help. And then he asks her to kiss it better and she does 😏😏
This made me laugh because my god, would Eris love to be a dramatic little bitch about getting injured just so Iris could heal him.
He would also absolutely want Iris to play nurse to him in more than one capacity 😏😌
Enjoy!
“Steady, steady.” Nevien said slowly and Iris focused on the Head Healer’s words as she let her magic flow through. “You want it to feel soft, like the wind is caressing the skin when you’re healing a flesh wound like this.”
Nodding, Iris continued slowly mending the soldier's wounds. He had gotten injured on the border — some beast had attacked and sliced his arm. She watched, and it never ceased to amaze her how magic mended, ensuring the wound had been thoroughly healed. Sitting back she glanced at Nevien, who inspected her work then smiled warmly.
“Excellent work, your highness. Feel free to wash up.”
Iris returned the smile and nodded to the soldier who bowed his head in return. She knew he was one of Eris’s men based on where he was stationed and hoped whatever beast roamed had been thoroughly dealt with. “Rest easy.”
She quickly walked over and carefully scrubbed and washed her hands, counting in her head to ensure her hands were squeaky clean when it fell silent around her.
“High Lord.” Nevien’s voice greeted and Iris turned to find her husband standing in the doorway of the infirmary with a thin smile.
“Nevien.” he nodded and gestured with his chin to the soldier Iris had just treated. “You’re all patched up, Percy?”
Percy stood and nodded, bowing to Eris, then to Iris and then leaving. Nevien nodded her head to him and moved on to her next patient as Eris stalked over to his wife.
“What are you doing here?” she asked him, her eyes roaming over his clothing, noting the weapons on him. “Is everything alright?”
“Oh, you didn’t hear? I was gravely injured and needed to see my wife so you can heal me immediately.” he said quietly and Iris felt her heart stop.
“Injured where?” she said as calmly as possible, her hands sliding all over him, sensing and seeking where he needed fixing. She would not panic. If he was still standing, he had to be fine.
Eris’s lips twitched and he grasped her hands in his, leaning closely to whisper, “On my lips. I’m in pain and I need you to make it feel better with your lips.”
Iris’s expression flattened and she shot him a glare. “You bastard.” she snapped. “I thought something was actually wrong with you!”
“There is. I wanted to kiss my wife and she was far away. That seems very wrong to me.”
Iris closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm her raging heart. She didn’t think it would look too well if she throttled the High Lord in front of people.
“You are a piece of work.” she muttered and yanked her hands away from him. “Get out of here so people who actually need help can find it.”
“Wife.” he said indignantly and crowded her space once more, backing her against the sink. “Don’t ignore my pain. I need you to fix it.”
“We are in the middle of the infirmary, you pig. Have some respect.” she hissed, and tried to push him back. “People can see us.”
“I assure you no one is paying any attention to us.” he said, the corner of his mouth curling up. “I have my shields in place.”
Iris rolled her eyes and hesitated for a moment before leaning up and quickly pecking his lips. “There. Now go away.”
But Eris only smirked and shook his head. “You do love to play games, wife.” he said and Iris knew his shields were gone when he stepped back and Nevien’s eyes flickered over to them for a moment. Right before Eris unsheathed a dagger and opened his palm. Before Iris could stop him, he had sliced open his hand and sheathed the dagger once more, giving her a look of complete innocence.
“I’m injured, wife. Won’t you treat me?”
Iris made a noise of disbelief, her hands frozen in midair when she had tried to reach out to him. “Have you lost your mind?” she whisper-shrieked.
But Eris only grinned and stalked over to the nearest empty bed and flopped rather dramatically on it. “I think I’m going to bleed to death. Whatever am I going to do?”
Iris shot Nevien an embarrassed smile that the healer pretended not to see and grabbed a small cleaning kit before she stalked over to her idiotic husband’s bed and nearly ripped the curtain closing it around them.
“I have one question for you.” Iris started and Eris grinned at her.
“Yes, I would delight bedding you right here, right now, little gazelle.”
“Are you insane?”
“Probably. In some capacity, I’d say.”
Iris glared at him and dropped next to him on the mattress, shoving him back. “You’re an idiot, is what you are.”
“Your bedside manner needs work, wife.” he said as she yanked his hand towards. “Then again, you being mean to me worked out well for us.”
“I am going to truly injure you if you don’t shut your mouth.
“Oh, yes. Keep being mean to me. It gets me worked up every time.”
“If you want attention next time, just say so.” she muttered and even though her tone was violent, her hands were gentle as she cleaned his hand and healed it. “You giant child.”
Eris’s lips twitched. “I did. You ignored me.”
Iris shot him a murderous look that had him clamping his lips together, fighting back a laugh. He stayed silent until she had gently wrapped a bandage around it.
“There. Your unnecessary injury is all patched up.” she said and sat back. “Even though you are fully capable of healing it yourself.”
“Why would I do that when I could have the prettiest healer’s hand on me?” he said with a smirk that had Iris rolling her eyes.
“You’re an idiot.” she muttered again and watched him for a moment more, as he watched her. And just as Eris aimed to open his mouth and say more, Iris had leaned closer and yanked him by the front of his shirt. She kissed him furiously and Eris immediately cupped the back of her head with his uninjuried hand and kissed her as intensely as she kissed him.
Only when they finally needed air and Eris began to do things with this mouth that would make Iris’s clothes disappear too quickly, did Iris pull back with a deep breath. She swallowed and adjusted his shirt then smoothed down her own dress before glancing at him.
“Hurt yourself on purpose again like that again and I’ll skin you alive.” she deadpanned and for good measure, kissed him quickly once more then stood, and yanked the curtain open to walk away from him. “Idiot.”
Eris only sat back and grinned wildly as he watched his wife walk away from him, at the way her face was flushed and how she was deliberately ignoring him. He would wait at least a few days then try this again. She had resisted bedding him here today but..Eris was anything but a quitter. She would cave and he would get a thrill trying until she did.
Thinking about Eris and Iris at the beach. Iris is joyfully soaking up the sun, running around with the pups and Eris is sitting all grumpy, watching her from under their beach umbrella like a little creep where he's safe from the sun despite being slathered with sunscreen. Somehow he still ends up sunburned.
IF EIRIS HYPOTHETICALLY HAD A FAMILY, how many kids would they have and what would their names be?
SO. Eiris definitely wait a good while to have kids.
They plan for one and their firstborn is a girl! Her name is Aurelia (the golden one SOBS), Aura/Ella for short! Eris is freaking out, it's great. A few years down the line, they get a little too passionate and oops, it happened again by accident and they have a baby boy. Eris really freaks out, it's fabulous. His name is Aleksander.
Their family stays small and they get the best of both worlds with their kiddos.
OH MY GOD CAN WE HAVE A SMALL SNIPPET OF IRIS WEARING THAT SHEER GOWN AND BEING NONCHALANT ABOUT IT AND ERIS IS LOOSING HIS FUCKING MIND. and then they boink afterward obviously 😗😗
I hope y'all know how generous I am 😂
Enjoy this little somethin' somethin'
Eris couldn’t breathe. One moment he was fine and the next, air had no way into his system.
He gaped at his wife, who had walked out of their bathroom with Sirius at her heels, and could only watch in silence as she paused at their vanity and began to apply her nightly lotion routine.
But tonight — he could see every inch of her skin beneath that sheer gown. That lovely little gown that was going to be ripped off immediately.
“What are you wearing.”
And his tone had her look over her shoulder at him, her hands sliding down her arms as she smoothed the cream.
“This?” she said with a small smile. “I found it in the closet and didn’t want it to go to waste. ”
“Right.”
“Do you like it?” she asked and tilted her head, turning back to watch him through the mirror. “It’s pretty, isn’t it?”
Pretty. She thought it was pretty. He thought it was magnificent.
“I like the material. It’s very soft against my skin.” she continued and Eris was rock hard as he watched her.
“Mm.” he could only say.
“I need to visit the modiste and see if she can make me more like these.” she said distractingly and Eris knew he would pay thousands to get her an endless supply of gowns like this.
But first. He would play.
“Iris.”
She looked back at him with a smile that made him nearly come right then. “Yes?”
“Get over here.” he demanded and the voice he used had Sirius immediately finding a corner of the room to settle down far away from them.
Iris quirked a brow and turned back to the mirror, the corner of her mouth ticking up. “I’ll come over when I’m done.”
A smirk slowly appeared on Eris’ face, his gaze predatory as he watched his wife. “Oh, you’ll come when I tell you, wife.” he said and fought back a grin at the gooseflesh he could see already erupting on her skin. “You know what happens if you don’t listen.”
Iris bit the inside of her cheek and met his gaze again. “I must’ve forgotten. What happens, husband?”
And Eris’s cock hardened further. “I make you beg for it.”
In typical Iris fashion she had made him wait a bit. And only when Eris looked about ready to pounce did Iris move. She had barely moved onto the bed when Eris had her pinned beneath him. His tongue had tasted every inch of her through the sheer fabric, and he had licked and sucked at her breasts until the gown stuck to her skin. Indeed, by the time he had granted her wish of sliding inside her, Iris had begged her husband quite a bit and whatever was left of Eris’s sanity had disappeared as quickly as the tattered pieces of what was left of the gown had been ripped to shreds.
Can you by any chance give us a completely random Eris/Iris head cannon ? It could be like weird quirks about each other or something that they do, around that area, it doesn’t necessarily have to have anything to do with SMTB and the direction the story’s going! Of course I request this if it isn’t too much of a bother! Love you and you’re writing !! I miss flower girl and fire boy (the other one, not elucien, tho I love them too)
Babes, you can always ask about my darlings and I will always want to answer.
They like to do their own solo activities throughout the day but like to be in the same room doing it.
Part of their daily routine is to take all 12 doggos for a walk.
Eris wakes up earlier than Iris so he always leaves her something on his pillow for when she wakes up. Chocolate, flowers, a little dagger. Sometimes an erotic and highly inappropriate poem. In return, Iris likes to leave him something on his desk. A flower, a drawing with a middle finger on it, an erotic letter with a kiss stain on the bottom as her signature.
Iris likes to wake him up with kisses on his back (especially when she's the big spoon), Eris likes to wake her up with kisses on her thighs and makes his way up between them.
When Eris is reading reports and concentrating, he likes to play with something in his hand.
Iris ends up creating a program for those interested in becoming healers and is very hands-on with it.
When they're in public and either of them becomes overwhelmed (Iris usually more than Eris), they squeeze the other's hand three times to indicate that they need a break.
They have a specific look that is their public smoke signal for sex. The look is accompanied by a light tug on the earlobe and they find themselves quickly looking for a private space.
Iris struggles to make friends in the court at first and it takes her a while to be comfortable approaching people without worrying they're being two-faced about it. She's a friendly introvert so it doesn't bother her as she's used to and enjoys her own company. She mostly sticks to her friendship with Elain and Lucien and they become really close, especially after Beron is kicked to the curb and they actually visit the Autumn Court more often. Once she starts the healer program, she finds a lot of like-minded people she begins to trust.
Eris likes to subtly match all his outfits to what Iris wears. In public events, he's very obvious with it and almost as obnoxious as Rhys about it.
One of the things that ends up happening once Beron kicks the curb is Iris bringing out the child in both of them. Their inner child comes to the surface so there are a lot of childish pranks that occur and just...a lot of fun to be had. Putting a bucket on top of a door so when Eris opens it, he gets soaked. Iris waking up and realizing he had put shaving cream in her hand and now she smeared her face and hair with it. They find a mostly abandoned hallway to slide in their socks because Eris will be damned if as a High Lord he's caught doing that. It doesn't matter that she forced him to get some kind of small mattress that they ride down the gliding staircases with and everyone pretends not to see their High Lord laughing his ass off. Simple joys that they didn't get to experience as children, they make up for it as adults. And when they have their kiddo? It gets even more ridiculous.
I hope you enjoyed hehe. Eiris are always on my mind and I appreciate you so much for loving them and asking about them!! ♥️♥️♥️
Well, considering you insisted I continue with more eris/iris questions, could you possibly give us a domestic moment, like specifically them getting ready for bed or something? Or like Eris is in bed (w/ glasses of course) and going over some papers, and iris is washing up, and then she comes to bed eris kisses her hand and then he puts his stuff away and they go to bed. Ya know? There’s something so intimate about a couple getting ready for bed. Idk I think it’s just me tho. All love ❤️
Okay but you're definitely not the only one! I love stuff like this because it's so simple and sweet and fluffy.
Enjoy :)
"Did you hear about Lord Braham's engagement? He's going to wed Lady Arabella. I met her once. She seems nice."
Iris's voice floated over to him from where she sat at their shared vanity and he lowered the reports in his hands to gaze over at her. He watched her silently for a moment, his lips twitching as she slathered the lotion all down her arms and up again, sliding to her shoulders. He continued to watch as rubbed gently beneath the straps of her lilac-colored gown, the strap slipping down for a moment until she adjusted them again.
Eris really did like that color on her. It looked so lovely against her skin. He’d tear it off later.
His gaze focused back on his reports.
"I did hear. Braham came to me first to indicate his intentions and invite us to the party." he said absently. "Lady Arabella will be good for him."
"But is he good for her?" Iris asked and Eris glanced up again as she started to shuffle over, Lyra wagging her tail at her feet before settling at the foot of the bed. He watched his lovely wife climb their bed and crawl over to him until she was seated on her knees in front of him with a scowl.
"What did we say about this?" she asked, pointing to the papers in his hands and Eris glanced down then back at her with a sigh.
"It's just a short report."
"Yes, but what did we agree on?"
"I'm almost done reading it through."
"That's not what I asked." she said and flicked the sheets in his hand. "What did we agree on?"
He pursed his lips then let out a rather dramatic, long-suffering sigh. "No work in our chambers."
"No work in our chambers." she repeated and gestured for him to the papers. With a wave of his hands, the report disappeared to his office desk and instead, he focused on his wife.
"You're so pushy."
“I wouldn’t have to ask twice if you had listened the first time.”
Eris snorted. “Don’t blame me for having an excellent work ethic.”
“I will if it comes at the expense of everything else.” she said with a firm look. “Specifically when every other aspect of you is in abysmal condition.”
Eris made a disapproving noise. “I am offended, wife.”
“Kiss my ass, husband.” she only said and shifted so her back was to him. "Now be quiet and help me with my hair."
Eris couldn't help the chuckle that escaped him and sat up, giving Iris room to shuffle back until she sat between his legs and handed Eris her brush.
"You didn't answer my question about Braham." she asked and closed her eyes as his fingers began a gentle massage through her hair. "Will he be good for Arabella? I heard he's a rake."
"Rakes make the best husbands." he said quietly, focusing on the strands of her silky hair between his fingers.
"Not when they're cheating on their wives."
"Ah, you are correct." he said and leaned in to place a delicate kiss on the tip of her ear and grinned when she shivered. “I should say reformed rakes make the best husband. Look what you’ve done to me.”
“Because you knew better and I know how to use a knife.” Iris said and shot him a smile over her shoulder that had him chuckling.
“Oh absolutely,” he said and brushed her hair gently. “But yes, Braham will be good for her. He’s only been in love with her his whole life.”
“I heard he waited this long because she was promised to another.” Iris asked in a hushed whisper.
Eris tsked as he placed the brush down and split her hair into three sections to start braiding it. “I didn’t know my wife subscribed to the gossip of this court.”
“You told me to learn about my people.” she said and gave him a smirk over her shoulder before facing forward again. “Besides, this is how Mother knows everything about everyone. We listen for it.”
Eris shook his head with a snort and finished off her braid with a tug. “Trust my mother. She never says a word about anyone but knows everything there is to know.”
“The key to knowing all the gossip is to be a great listener.” Iris confirmed and turned to face him. “We listen and then only share with each other. You wouldn’t believe the things you’d hear if you just remained quiet.”
“Well, I find everything out because people are scared not to tell me.” he said with a smirk that had Iris rolling her eyes. “You wouldn’t believe how afraid they are that I hear about something from anyone other than the direct source.”
Iris snorted. “You love gossip as much as anyone else.”
“It’s not gossip when I have to know things to protect my people.”
“And knowing about the reformed rake's love stories is vital to safety, how?”
“It is when the jilted fiance Arabella left for Braham is threatening to murder them both at their engagement.” Eris said and laughed at Iris’s dramatic gasp.
“No!”
“Oh yes.” Eris said. “But we settled it before it got out of hand. She never wanted him anyway so it’s about time he moved on.”
Iris’s face lit up in curiosity and she quickly slid Eris’s glasses off his face and reached across him to place them on the nightstand. Pushing him down rather roughly, she tangled her legs with his, and settled with her chin on his chest. “What else did you hear? I want to know everything.”
Eris let out a low laugh and wrapped an arm around him, squeezing. “Nosy, are we?”
“As their future High Lady, I need to be informed about these things.” she said matter-of-factly. “Tell me so I can tell you what I found out about Lord Piers in my lessons today.”
Eris shook his head, his lips twitching as he brushed back her loosely braided hair. “You’re turning out to be just as sneaky as my informants.”
“Maybe.” Iris said with a grin. “But I don’t think they get to kiss the Prince while giving him reports.”
“Oh no.” he said and leaned in to brush his lips against her in a wicked promise. “These lips are reserved for one lady and one only.”
I know you said its going to be a bit before we get an update for eris and iris but can you give us anything? Please babes we are starved ive read it like 5 times now. I need anything! I'll take anything please, smut, fluff, angst!!! It can literally be a sentence 😭
Side note how would eris and iris react if one of the dogs got hurt? Cause you know those are their babies and i would love to see Eris going full mother hen over his babies
I feel so bad HAHA. I'm trying to write as much as I can to make the wait worth it, I promise. I will just say there are ~moments~ in the next bit.
As for the doggos getting hurt, Eris is a nightmare. Per usual. He usually has the head healer take care of them because he literally doesn't trust anyone else.
But Iris walks in on him cooing and frantically trying to calm Atlas one evening because he was with Eris on an outing and ended up getting hurt.
Iris takes one look at Eris, who is starting to fret, and just gives him a knowing look before gently (and firmly) shoving him over. "Let me handle this."
"But —"
"You're in the way, step back please."
His pout is a great look on him and Iris tries not to laugh, turning her attention back to poor Atlas who is whining sadly. But she starts speaking softly and gently and slowly running her hands over the leg that was twisted in action. The other doggos are surrounding them and mostly rubbing/nudging against Eris who is watching this all unfold, tense as hell. He loves his dogs too much and for any of them to get hurt for him? It makes him feel like shit.
It isn't until Iris starts scratching behind Atlas's ear and he starts whining happily, kicking the leg that was hurt easily that Eris' shoulders start to relax. Only when Atlas gets up to rub against Eris does he truly breathe easily.
Iris takes one look at Eris and said with a barely contained smile. "I assume we'll be having a visitor tonight?"
Eris blinks at her and just says, "Two visitors. It's technically Ara's night too and I don't want to upset her by skipping her turn."
Iris just chuckles with Ara already nudging Iris's hand for a touch. "Two visitors it is."
