Nesta and Eris find more than a superb dance partner in each other, and their mates, Cassiand and Azriel, go on a wild goose chase to figure out why they’ve been secretly spending nights together.
Day 3 of @erisweekofficial has Nesta and Eris dancing their way through therapy together, as best friends are wont to do. Read a snippet below, or find the full fic on AO3.
It was the night of the month Nesta most dreaded and looked forward to, the simultaneous emotions warring within her. She zipped up her favorite gown and tried to steady her nervous hands by running her fingers through the gossamer fabric that seemed to float on air. It moved beautifully as she brushed it back and forth, a calming dance that kept her transfixed until her breaths evened. With her nerves under control, Nesta checked her reflection one last time to confirm her braids were tightly pinned in place. Practiced hands smoothed back the few fly-aways that could become a distraction until she was satisfied. She gave herself a small smile while she combed through the skirt of her gown once more and watched it move between her fingers in the mirror.
When she was ready to leave, Nesta went back through the room to cover her tracks. She rearranged the closet so her missing dress was less obvious and placed an outfit inconspicuously in the corner so she could easily change upon her return. The note she wrote for Cassian was brief, asking him not to wait up and giving a vague excuse for her absence. He respected her independence, so she didn’t think he would read too hard between the lines. As she snuck down the hall, Nesta could smell her mate walking toward their room and ducked away as quickly as possible, off to her monthly rendezvous.

It's officially time to start dropping @erisweekofficial snippets!
"And So, We Danced" is a Nesta and Eris brOTP fic with some background comedy from their mates, Cassian and Eris.
“Your form is off.” Eris said as he pulled Nesta’s body back toward him. Her last turn had been a quarter second off from the beat of the symphonia. It was so unlike her usual pristine tempo that Eris grew concerned for the female. He led her into a lock step, halting their waltz mid song and dropping his arms.
The flames in Nesta’s eyes grew as she stared down her partner. “What was that for?” Her arms held perfect posture, waiting for Eris to take up position again and continue their promenade.
“Don’t give me that,” Eris scoffed, crossing his arms over his chest. “You couldn’t even do a natural spin turn, something you learned practically before you could walk.” He softened his shoulders slightly as he spoke again, “what’s on your mind, Nesta.”
Nesta’s arms held the same perfect position, though her shoulders and lips tensed in response. “Finish the song.”
Stay tuned for day 3 of Eris week (healing/ betrayal) on 9/10 for the full fic!
Hello loves! I hope you're all doing well! It's time for a little update:
🐶 @erisweekofficial prep is WELL underway, with two fics fully drafted and ready for edits including the newest "To Become a Vanserra" installment "The Clause". I've got lots of lofty plans for this event, but I don't want to promise anything until I have drafts! Keep and eye out on WIP Wednesday posts for teasers.
🦇 Only two more chapters of "Take These Broken Wings"! I plan to come back to this fic very soon, and hope to get the entire thing finished by the end of 2024. I know that's a LONG ways away, but we have Eris week, Secret Santa, and a few other events I may try to participate in between now and then.
👩🏽🏫 Unfortunately this week school starts back up again and my schedule will be even more rigorous than before. I'll try to keep being consistent, but we will see. (We all know consistency was never my game...)
As always, please feel free to reach out in DMs or asks if you have any questions or comments! Love to hear form you all. Thanks for following the journey so far!
