Fuck all romance except for whatever the fuck that sun king and the captain of his vanguard had going on

Avad, pointing at Erend who is being prevented from entering a meeting by some noble: Excuse me, sir? That's my emotional support himbo, let him through.

Erend: Yeah, you heard the king-... wait

Avad: :)

Hmm... Erend and Avad ruffling some formal wear, perhaps? Learning that the fun part of the fancy clothes is getting one another out of them?

Alternatively, Shepard and Kaidan in Star Trek cosplay?

Finished the new season of Bridgerton so of course I had to go with Erend and Avad as a couple of regency era gentlemen >w> (not quite as horny as i originally intended but oh well lol)

[cryptid-jack]

So someone on the PC release of HZD made a mod that let you teleport child Aloy out onto the main map and it gave me a fun AU idea where the overarching plot is the same, but Aloy is baby and has help from Erend, Avad, and all the other friends she makes along the way, and winds up getting adopted by Erend and Avad who wind up being her very protective gay dads XD

Erend still meets Aloy at the proving ceremony, though this time it’s because Aloy sneaked in. Her focus still reacts to Olin’s and winds up making her a target when she sneaks up to the finishing line of the proving to watch. Rather than being found by Teersa, however, Aloy winds up washed downstream where she’s found by Erend and the others from Meridian while they’re being escorted out of the sacred lands. He tries to give her back to them so they can get her to her family, but with Aloy being outcast, none of them want her, which roundly pisses Erend off and he takes care of her himself and brings her back to Meridian.

Things kick off from there when Aloy comes across one of the other ruins first and Erend, Avad, Talanah, and a very perplexed Nil wind up chasing all over creation trying to keep up with her XD

Welp, this is it, folks, we’ve finally reached the point in my fandom obsession with HZD that I finally made an au that involved wings in some way XD

So, yes, an Erevad au where Erend is King Avad’s guardian angel or somesuch, sent by the powers that be to protect him from... something.

I dunno, ya’ll, I just really like wings okay 8′D Sure I’ll come up with something eventually XD

Time for some erevad casual modern boyfriends because... reasons. Probably going to raid the nearest bodega for late night snacks.

“Knew I’d find you here.”

Avad looked up in time to see Erend round the wall of vine covered latticework that surrounded the small gazebo he had taken refuge in and smiled. He brushed a few stray locks of his jet black hair from his face and watched the Oseram catch one of the support posts with a hand, arresting his forward momentum so he swung up the steps and onto the raised platform in one graceful, swaggering stride.

“Have I truly become so predictable?“ Avad asked with a sigh as he pushed himself to his feet and stepped forward to join the captain at the entrance to the gazebo.

Erend cocked his head to one side as he leaned into his hand were it rested on the post, gray eyes crinkling a the corners with good humor. “Maybe a little,“ he remarked. “But after everything we’ve been through, I’m glad for a little predictable.“

The king chuckled and flashed the taller man a bright smile. “Perhaps you’re right. On the other hand, that simply won’t do if I’m going to keep the nobles in check. You know how overbearing they get when they think they have their king on his heels.” Erend grimaced at the reminder and Avad laughed again, then, on a whim, stepped in closer to the other man, who fell still rather than pull away to make room for his king.

He liked that about Erend. Liked the way his pale eyes watched him, keen and curious as he tried to guess at his king’s motives. Avad liked the way the other man smelled, too; like leather and iron with just a hint of pine, though what its source might be, the king could not begin to guess. He found himself nearly overcome by an urge to close the remaining distance between them, push himself up against that broad, muscular chest and press his nose to the column of Erend’s throat; take a deep breath to discover if it was a cologne or something else.

Maybe it’d help calm the butterflies currently rioting in his stomach.

“But then-” Avad murmured as he tore his gaze from a thoughtful contemplation of the captain’s open fronted shirt, “If it’s just around you, I might be able to get away with it.”

A soft huff of amusement escaped Erend at his words and the king didn’t think he was imagining the flush that seemed to be creeping up the back of the man’s neck to his face. Regardless, Avad’s pulse quickened as Erend leaned in and said, “You’re welcome to test your luck all you like, your Majesty,” in a low, soft voice that came from the very depths of his chest and threatened to make the king’s toes curl in his sandals.

Acting on reflex, Avad reached out to Erend, who held his ground, watching his every move with half-lidded eyes. The king wasn’t entirely sure what he’d intended to do, but he caught himself part-way and settled on nudging the other man’s bearded chin with a finger. “Impertinent,” he teased, mouth unaccountably dry as the corners of Erend’s lips curled into a smile that bordered on coy.

“Yeah,” the captain admitted with a one-shouldered shrug, then pulled away unexpectedly and descended the steps of the gazebo. “But you like it,” he added as he cast a wide, teasing grin back over his shoulder at the king.

Avad laughed and followed after, heart still pounding behind his breast bone.

Well, the man wasn’t wrong.

[Full naughty version over on my Pillowfort!]

If you want me come and get me I see the hunger in your eyes I don't know what to say With your body wrapped around me Take me away to the other side I don't know what to say tonight

I am the circuits bent, I am the lone disease And every caress is a medicine, bringing me to my knees Now I am in your hands, rattling in my bones Every sound just fades away until we are all alone

Alright, I might have gotten a little carried away with this one, lol. Erend just couldn't keep his hands off Avad after seeing him get painted up for some ceremony on one of the Sundom's holy days >3c Erend may be an atheist like most Oseram but that doesn't mean he doesn't like to worship his Sun-King, heheh. Shame that gold body paint smudges so easy...
