@rootedpetals sent (Lucien) an ask //

You pushed me away.

He doesn't turn immediately to look at her as the words drift across the room, feeling like they pierce the very core of his being. Lucien frowns at them, though, like he cannot understand them.

❝ I-- I gave you space... Was I not supposed to? ❞ Ever since he first saw her, first held her in his arms--first felt the snap of their connection that day-- Everything has seemed strange. What used to make such sense, what knowledge he'd held, all seemed to abandon itself.

Like every step he made, every word he spoke, isn't the right one.

❝ I didn't want to make you-- I didn't want to make things uncomfortable, Elain. You gave no indication that you wished for my presence, and it wouldn't have been right to force such company on you if it wasn't your desire-- ❞

[loath3d]

he does his best to refrain from smiling at the female, but it's near impossible. azriel does, however, manage to keep an even tone as he replies. ❝ is that the real reason you're here? ❞ it seems like such a silly thing she'd feel the need to tell him in person, yet here elain is, standing mere feet away from him as he rests at the table in the house of wind's dining room. he's been reading through various reports, but all of his attention is on the middle archeron. after all, it is so very rare for her to leave her bedroom most days.

So kiss the others for all I care, but don’t hold back with me.

❝ Do you really think so little of me? ❞ he mutters, Lucien turning on his heel to immediately pierce Elain with a sharp look. ❝ That I would be intimate with another if you did not wish it? That I am such a poor male? ❞

Lucien scoffs, starting to stride back to her. ❝ I will not force you into something you do not want, Elain. But neither can I wait around forever. So tell me-- what do you want? ❞

@rootedpetals:

fire. her skin was on fire. her emotions were ablaze and on high alert. how dare he. how dare he! a snarl leaves her lips as she looks over at rhysand with pure hatred. "you had no right to do this!"

starlight filled shadows die out, power dimming away until he is seen as just a passive form. if she was fire, he were to be the opposite — unyielding, void of any emotion. unwilling to add any fuel to her flame. he knew elain figuring out about his talk with azriel was inevitable, it was only a matter of time they had this conversation. this is where having his court be made of family became tricky: decisions needed to be made for the wellbeing of everyone, even if it's to their dismay. he wears the face of a high lord, not her brother, calculated grace as his hands fold over themselves. " seeing as though it effects my court, i had every right. " a breath, his voice softening to become a still, dark night. " i don't expect you to know of all the inner workings of this court, or the politics at hand. this would destroy any alliance we have — shred any sense of peace. azriel should have known better. "

@rootedpetals: ♡'d for a starter from FEYRE

WATCHING her sisters suffer at the hands of the king of hybern had made the desired impact on feyre, and that impact still lingered every day. the lasting impact was also evident in both elain and nesta and it broke the high lady's heart. while true that she wanted to reunite with them, a forced high fae transformation was far from what she'd envisioned. now, in the aftermath of it all, feyre was doing her best to help them through and reconnect with them; one such attempt was being made now, as the high lady of the night court knocked softly on her sister's door. ❛❛ elain ? ❜❜ the femme called out gently. ❛❛ i brought you some tea. ❜❜

Nesta's arms curled around her, like a part of her sought to hold herself together. She'd been pacing across the hall, back and forth, but that hadn't remotely alleviated the tension she felt. She turned her eyes on Elain.
