Fairy Queen

Queen Clarion of Pixie Hollow.

[the-queen-clarion]

This musical tells the story of Clarion from childhood until now, at the moment where she is so close to handing off her duty to a young queen and moving on. I honestly thought I was gonna do someone else at first, but I think it feels right to do this for Clarion. I did my best picking songs. Some are sung, some are instrumental but it all fits the narrative I think.

1. Fruhlingsstimmen, Op 410 by Johann Strauss II

Clarion is a young fairy for this one, a royal talent in training flitting around the Hollow, getting to know the places she’d have to help, learning from King Cassander. She is energetic, free spirited, and while she’s passionate about the Hollow, she’s busy enjoying being a fairy and not letting herself be burdened with the weight of her future yet.

2. I Can’t Help Falling In Love by Elvis

When she’s in her late teens, early twenties, Clarion meets Milori. A fellow royal talent like her, it’s the first time Clarion meets someone who can really relate to her other than the King. Clarion and Milori fall in love, and Clarion starts sneaking off here and there to meet him when she can.

3. An der Schonen Blauen Donau, Op. 314 by Johann Strauss II

Clarion is still young when King Cassander declares she’s ready, and she goes through the ritual to be tied to the Pixie Dust tree. There’s a grand ceremony, and she is crowned Queen Clarion, Pixie Hollow’s new royal. 

4. Almost Lover by A Fine Frenzy

Now weighing the duty she has to her fairies, and the danger she accidentally put the Hollow in going to see Milori again...she chooses to break things off with him. Despite the love she feels for him, she knows that they won’t work out, and that they need to call it.

5. Talking to the Moon by Bruno Mars

Despite knowing it’s for the best, Clarion suffers with the sadness of losing Milori for a few years, overworking herself each day and looking at the moon to try to soothe herself. 

6. 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton

The next hundred years are just Clarion focusing on her duty in the Hollow, studying to become a lawyer, becoming a lawyer and creating an office for herself. Picture a montage of fairy work activity with 9 to 5 playing.

7.  If I Fell by Evan Rachel Wood

Clarion has met her scout captain Nyx, and despite knowing that she shouldn’t think of anyone romantically again...she can’t help but look at the way that Nyx treats her, respects her and pine. 

8. Fix You by Coldplay

The Winter Hollow fairies from Orkney arrive and seek refuge in Pixie Hollow. Clarion dedicates herself to helping them settle in and giving them a new home. She meets a young royal talent Atta and sees something in her.

9. Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield

The magic goes wonky, and Clarion realizes that Atta IS the one who must take over for her in the Hollow. Everything about the situation tells her this is true, and she takes Atta under her wing.

10. Let Me Be Your Wings from Thumbelina

Clarion has finally accepted her feelings for Nyx and they are reciprocated. The two of them get closer and closer and really start building a relationship and planning for a future together. The musical pans out after Nyx asked Clarion to be Promised to her, the two of them dancing in the air in joy.

Nyx’s smile broadened, and for a moment, no one else was there. Just her and Clarion gazing into on another’s eyes as they spoke of Promises. At Clarion’s words, the fluttering beats of her heart pounded up against her chest and felt like they would burst forth. She murmured, still amazed by all that had gone right in the end, “I was hoping this would all go according to my strategic planning.”

And with that, she pulled Clarion in, for all the Hollow to see, and pressed her lips to the Queen’s. The kiss was the first of many, and a start to a new chapter for them. One out in the sunlight where it could continue to blossom and grow. 

.

Clarion melted into her lover, forgetting for a moment everything else, just the feel of her promised, of Nyx’s lips against hers, her arms wrapped around her scout captain. The queen practically glowed, her wonderful thoughts allowing for the dust around her to really shine. 

“I think it’s gone perfectly, sunrise.” Clarion beamed at her, leaning in to kiss her just once more because she could, because there was nothing to hide anymore. Atta would become the new queen soon, and Clarion had full faith that the young fairy could do it. She would shine even brighter than Clarion had.

“We should go home and plan. For our future.”

Promise-Posal || Nyxion

-

The petals swirled across the grass as more and more eyes turned onto them, Nyx pulled her hands from behind her back and for the first time, not under duty or as official escort to a function, she took Clarion’s hand. She initiated the contact in front of all of the Hollow to see. 

“I think it’s time to step out of the darkness, petal.” She whispered gently before projecting a bit more so all the nosey little fairies who helped could hear. “Clarion, I’ve been at your side more moons than even the greatest scribe talent could keep track of. I’ve watched you give your heart to this Hollow, watched you foster it, made it grow more rings as time passed into an even sturdier Oak. And in all this time, I have given my heart to the Hollow as well.” Her smile curled up, eyes soft as she spoke to her queen and lover, “And if that isn’t telling us that once we put our hearts together, anything is possible, I don’t know what else will.”

She fluttered her wings behind herself a bit nervously, those strange butterflies fluttering even faster, “It would be the greatest honor I’ve ever been given, if you would be my Promised. Be mine for all the moons to come and never doubt that I will protect you as you will always be queen of my heart, which once felt very hollow, but is now full.”

.

Clarion’s heart was so full she thought for a moment that surely it would burst with so much happiness flooding through her. The love that Clarion felt for Nyxion was unlike any feeling she’d had before in her long life. Yes, she’d loved once before, but that love had been over in the flit of a moment...and it hadn’t felt as real, as possible as this one.

Back then, Clarion had been young, a royal talent in training to a new royal talent. Now...well now Clarion was looking to a beautiful retirement. And Nyx was going to Promise herself to her. 

Tears blurred her vision for a moment, though Clarion refused to allow them to fall. She wanted to see Nyx, to watch her face, to study the love of her long life. “My sunrise...there is nothing in this world that would delight me more. I’ve seen you grow, and watched you become a wonderful scout, an incredible captain, and you’ve become someone I cannot see myself without.” Clarion reached up to wipe at her eyes quickly.

“I never allowed myself to hope for a love like ours. But because of you, I’ve let myself hope. To dream of something other than my duty and what’s expected of me. I can see beyond that to a life of joy and rest with you. I would be honored to be your Promised and spend the rest of my life with you.”

Promise-Posal || Nyxion

As they flew at their leisurely pace, Nyx felt her heart beat as quickly as her wings, busying her hands behind her back to channel the pent up energy of the impending task she was about to perform. 

There was not always a grand promise-posal. There was maybe a small one, or one she could easily have done for Clarion behind closed doors. But, it was getting to be time where they would take their relationship into the light rather than the shadows and she felt the best way to do this was to present it publicly. For all the Hollow that they loved to be involved in some way of showing the Queen to a new part of her life with them. That although it was an end, it was also a beginning, a bud waiting to bloom. 

As they neared the training grounds, pathways of flowers grew and sprouted underneath them, the faint sound of giggling of apprentices could be heard and the shushing of their mentors. 

“Just some tunnels, tangled brush, hedges and low branches.” Of course, none of those were found as they emerged onto the training grounds, the archery targets lined up to run alongside them rather than in front of them and an archway of flowers of every color in the middle of it, twinkling with fairy dust (a favor she called into her father and the dust fairies for (they’d pooled a small surplus of their own dust allowance for the occasion). A light breeze (generated by the fast flying talents) carried petals across the field and swirling them up into the air. “Oh no, maybe they’d already seen this.”

“Clarion,” She said softly, in public, without formality or title, for all the Hollow to hear. 

And all the Hollow responded, eyes peaking up from targets and the brush, poking up through branches as they rustled. Nyx could roll her eyes, but then again, none of them were Scouting guard talents trained in the ways of stealth. 

The grin on her face bloomed, a grin that few in the Hollow had ever seen, but was on full display now, “Shockingly, I didn’t bring you here for new training grounds or our fly about.”

.

Clarion should have suspected something was up the moment that she spotted none of the things that Nyx described as obstacles. Or perhaps she should have the moment she heard some quiet giggling and felt eyes on them that she hadn’t anticipated. 

But here they were, with petals swirling across the field, and Nyx speaking to her like...like she was everything. A smile spread across the fairy queen’s face as she got the sense of what this situation really was, wings fluttering and pixie dust spilling out beneath them.

“You know, I should have caught on to that sooner, but here we are. What are you doing, my sunrise? Plotting?”

She could guess what Nyx was wanting to do, but she could also have something entirely different in mind. Still, her heart sped up, and she felt as if the air around her shimmered as her joy was exposed to the world. 

[the-queen-clarion]

captain-nyxquillspear​: 

Promise-Posal || Nyxion

Every time her queen kissed her was a welcome surprise. She didn’t know if she’d ever fully get used to the level of affection she was shown whenever she arrived. Like she was something exciting and important all wrapped in one to her Queen. She felt the shy smile appear on her lips, fluttering of wings in her stomach that only her queen seemed to orchestrate and the bit of nerves that accompanied it for what she was about to ask. 

Yes, they’d talked about it. And yes, in theory they’d wanted to spent the next lifetime together, but when it was real, would that still be the case?

She pushed that thought down and whispered softly, the secret always lingering between them, “Of course, petal.” 

She led her out and kicked up off the limb of the tree, easily fluttering her wings up into the air, “I thought I’d show you the training grounds, I’ve been thinking about agility training for the Scouting talents and thought perhaps the fast flyers could utilize it as well. I enlisted the help of some garden talents to set up some obstacles.”

Her heart was like a hummingbird in her chest. Truthfully, she had pulled a few strings with the garden talents and the moment they got wind of the premise, they gave her a rather knowing look that baffled her. Evidentially, they weren’t subtle.

A few overly friendly fairies came up to them with grins and smiles, giving a greeting and a look to the Captain which was met by a brief unamused glare.

.

Clarion felt like a fledgling again, the giddy joy carrying her along after Nyx with an energy that she hadn’t had in a long time. Each moment Clarion spent with her guard was wonderful, and she forgot for a moment who she was. What she should be doing. She let herself forget about her duty for a while.

“Oh? What kind of obstacles were you thinking?” Clarion asked curiously as they flew, already running through some ideas in her head. She knew how Nyx tended to work, so she had an idea of how it might look. But seeing was better than imagining. 

She was surprised a bit by the friendly fairies greeting them with rather sly looks. Clarion glanced over at Nyx, but her beloved didn’t pay much attention to it. “Is something going on? Did they help you with the obstacles as well?”

Promise-Posal || Nyxion

Clarion’s reign was winding down and it was approaching the time when the Spring and Winter fairies would have their annual promise ceremonies. Nyx didn’t want to wait another moon let alone another dozen to make sure Clarion was completely hers and they could start their life together. 

So she had devised a little something with a few talents that Clarion would see on their fly-about today. She would act as normal until they got towards the training grounds and then things would look a little different than usual.

She knocked on Clarion’s door before peering her head in, small sort of secret smirk on her face that only Clarion saw behind her serious demeanor, “Queen Clarion? Are you ready for our fly-about?”

@the-queen-clarion​

.

Clarion had admittedly taken a little more time to make her hair nice, a flower crown she’d made for herself placed upon her head. Taking time like this with Nyx always felt like the greatest gift. She had spent so much of her life not allowing herself something like this. But now...when someone else would take over the mantle soon...Clarion could let it be. She twisted around as she adjusted her crown a little and smiled at Nyx. “Of course. I felt ready an hour or so ago already. Spending time with my sunrise is...there’s nothing like it.” She fluttered toward Nyx, leaning in to press a soft kiss to her lips.

“Shall we?”

Susan stumbled to get to her feet. Oh my god, the fairy Queen was just casually stopping by to meet… her? 

“Queen Clarion!” She exclaimed, not having realized who she was talking to. “I wasn’t expecting any kind of royalty to come see me. I’m so sorry about the mess!” Susan reached out to shake her hand and then hurried to gather her stray papers and folders and shove them into her desk. She tried to be nonchalant about it, but she was very chalant. 

“Well, I would love to answer any questions you may have. Did you have concerns regarding the Hollow? I don’t think I have any jurisdiction there, but if you need something from the Swynlake Board, I can see to it.” 

Clarion never did get used to the startled responses she would get when she did approach someone for a conversation. Several hundred years of her duty, yet somehow this awe never stopped amazing her. It was an honor for her position as Queen of the Hollow to be respected by humans. “Oh don’t worry about that. I know my law office can be a right mess if we have a big case.” Clarion spoke sympathetically, a warm smile on her face to try to ease the woman’s nerves a little.

“No questions necessarily. I simply thought I might meet with you and we could get to know each other a little.”

Late Night Flutter | One Shot

Clarion wakes up early and consults with someone familiar with her late night thoughts

It was rare for Clarion to wake before an alarm of some kind. She tended to overwork herself to the point of such a deep exhaustion that only an alarm or another fairy could get her awake again. But at four in the morning, Clarion stirred...this feeling of unease heavy in the air. 

Clarion’s wings fluttered and lifted her out of her bed, pixie dust flurrying to the ground as she drifted toward the entrance to her home. Something was off, though the fairy queen could not place what it was. She had felt this way a few times in the past few months, as if something was building...some pressure or a new threat that was lurking in the shadows.

Her wings flapped as she hovered in place for a moment, pixie dust steadily falling beneath her feet that were hovering just a rice kernel or so off the ground. She would do as she usually did to appease her worries. She would fly about the Hollow and make sure everyone was resting well and doing okay.

Clarion flew away from her home and started slowly traveling around the Hollow, near the perimeter, but not so close to it that it would concern the scouts on watch at that moment. Clarion had no desire to cause them any trouble. She eyed each aspect of the Hollow, and was able to conclude that there was no evident sign of disaster. But something was warning her. Something was coming.

Soon Clarion found her way toward the Pixie Dust Tree, zipping past the area where dust was collected, a trail of her own dust sprinkling behind her as she went through the secret door and toward the area where she would commune with past royalty. 

The fairy queen found her usual spot, crossing her legs while she was still in the air, and letting her wings slowly lower her to the ground there. Her eyes closed, and she set her hands on her legs, sucking in a deep breath as she concentrated. Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six....

“What do you need Clarion?” A familiar voice called to her, and Clarion opened her eyes to see none other than her mentor King Cassander. “Your Majesty...lately...I have felt restless. Restless as I haven’t been since the last time the humans in this country were waging war. So much has happened in this town lately...and I can’t help but feel as if something is...off with me.” 

Clarion watched as the stern fairy considered her words, weighing them thoughtfully as he always had when he had been alive. “Did you notice when this feeling first occurred?” Cassander asked after a long pause, and Clarion had to reflect back as to when that was...but yes. She could pinpoint the exact moment. It was when that vampire had poisoned her and so many others to successfully bring down the town charter.

“Ahh...yes I did. When I was poisoned. I know I mentioned the incident to you. It was truly....horrific.” Clarion nodded, debating over what that detail could give them. But then...something had to have happened then. Perhaps fairies were extra susceptible to whatever poison? 

Cassender nodded, as if he had suspected as much, but needed to hear Clarion say it. “Do you think the poison has weakened me?” Clarion asked next, worried that the next time an emergency came up, she might not be able to do what was required of her to protect the Hollow. 

The former King pursed his lips. “I don’t want to say anything without investigating further. I would advise...perhaps consulting one of those loathsome sorcerers. They’re rather tiresome individuals, but they do have an affinity towards assessing magic and its potency. One of them might be able to sense if something were off with your magic. Of course, speaking to one of them can be a double edged sword, so I suggest you take a little time to assess yourself further before such contact.” 

Clarion had to stop herself from rolling her eyes. Cassander always had been an extra paranoid one. If she needed to consult with a sorcerer, she would. Clarion had built enough relationships in this town to likely find one that she could tolerate examining her reagents or whatever it was the sorcerers called the magic sources. Either way, Clarion would do it if she had to.

Though much like Cassander, she would prefer not to have to. “I see. Thank you for the advice as always Milord.” Clarion gave the spirit a bow. “I have much to think about going forward.” “As always, you know I am here to offer you what I can,” Cassander replied warmly, fading away into the memory of the tree as Clarion studied the clearing he had just been in.

“Well...I’m not certain that helped me, but I do at least feel settled.” Enough that she thought she might be able to get an hour or two more of sleep before the day required her attention. Clarion got to her feet and flew out of the secret door, making her way back toward her home, a trail of pixie dust following her journey once again.

March rolled around and Susan had finally gotten her ducks in a row. Regarding her new board member status, that is, nothing else really… She was still waiting to hear from Howl about her requests. In the meantime, Susan threw herself into work. Call her overeager, but she tended to be the first one to submit her responses and revisions. It wasn’t that she took it lightly, no, she just wanted to be efficient. 

The woman was pretty much the only person with office hours so early on a weekday. The other board members had day jobs to attend. Hers was mainly after the twilight hours, something so casually thrown at her in the debates. So she was the only body at a desk currently. Susan forgot this fact right until someone waltzed into the office. At first she didn’t bother to look up from her screen. She expected it to be Pacifica or Hades, they came in at odd hours sometimes. And when she noticed it wasn’t either, she sat up straight. “H-Hi?”

Susan glanced around, affirming it was just her, “Are you here to see me?”

Clarion had intended to make herself known with the new board members sooner, but time had drifted away from her, and problems in the Hollow had interfered. She’d met with the mayor, but other than that her duties had kept her distracted from the human issues.

Today that was not the case. Today she chose to reach out, figuring it would be best to get to know more of the members on the board. At least those she thought might be helpful when issues that concerned the Hollow came up.

Clarion made her way to Susan’s office, a polite smile spreading across her face. “Yes, of course. Susan, I’m Queen Clarion. I was hoping to get better acquainted today.”

[the-queen-clarion]

captain-nyxquillspear​: 

Though Nyx once valued her wings and her duties above all else, Clarion was a new priority, one that she knew would factor into the mix of things. 

It was hard to let someone take care of her when she’d shut herself off completely to that sort of thing, diving into her work and simply plowing ahead. Clarion made her stop. Made her walk and take in the scenery.

As the kiss deepened, her fingers tangled into Clarion’s hair, pulling her that much closer as the two lay there, isolated from the rest of the world, just being together if only for a few moments, but there would be so many more to come.

Clarion gasped at the hands in her hair, pulling in closer to Nyx and forgetting in that moment about the rest of the world. For the first time in hundreds of years, Clarion was just a woman. 

She pulled back for a moment to catch her breath, a smile lighting up her face. “We’ll have to get back to work soon.” She didn’t want to say it, but the longer they sequestered themselves, the more likely someone would notice.

“But we have to do something like this again soon.”

[the-queen-clarion]

captain-nyxquillspear​:

Nyx sighed softly at the hands moving down her spine, her wings fluttering a bit as she lay next to her partner. She couldn’t believe the eyes looking up at her. They were so beautiful, so deep, like they’d seen so much but still there was so much behind them that was light, hopeful. 

Her brows rose at the request. It was very intimate. Her wings were arguably her most important asset as a Scouting fairy. She needed her speed, her ability to generate lift as she hefted things in her arms, her agility. Aside from her arms, her wings were her identity. She’d never let anyone (aside from her parents when she was young) touch her wings like that. Moreover, her wings were the one thing of her mother’s she new she always had. The pattern on her wings mimicked her mother’s in every crease of them, they made her feel connected to her and a lot stronger because of it.

She brushed her nose up against Clarion’s, “I’ve never let anyone touch them like that before, you know how important they are to me.” She exhaled softly, “But I would let you, I trust you.” She pressed a soft kiss to her lips, hoping she could feel how genuinely she cared for her.

.

Wing washing had always been a deeply personal affair. Clarion herself had only ever let her sister do so when her sister had been alive, and her parents. She’d once considered it with her past romance with Milori, but that quickly changed when she realized how foolish it was to let herself be pulled into those feelings.

It was different with Nyx. She wanted to know and be known. She wanted the shared experience and tenderness of taking care of each other in such a way. 

“Thank you, my love. I trust you too.” Clarion leaned into the kiss, a hand reaching out to cradle Nyx’s cheek as she moved to deepen the kiss just a little. To express her love just a little more.

Nyx Quillspear & Queen Clarion ::  Leader and their Infallibly Loyal Second-in-Command, Who Are Pining For One Another But Cannot Compromise Their Positions

Be still with me If you want To be alone (Be still) If you’d rather die then tell You’ll know where I’ll be (Be still) Where to find me For high talk To cut it off or bring it on

Everyone and their mum already did Nyxion, but that’s just because it’s so damn good. I am also going to put my own spin on it and pick a DIFFERENT trope besides bodyguard romance. I am a SUCKER for this trope and all my favorite ships of the moment (Royai, Kanej, Shakarian) have that same dynamic and I was trying to think if we had a roleplay ship that fit the same vibe and it hit me immediately.

I just love pining! I love pining when there is a very good reason why they cannot be together and I love pining when it is clear that they both love each other so much but they have other duties and goals and ugh! I love the stakes! I love that the second-in-command will do absolutely anything for the leader, without any hesitation (see the Royai exchange of “Will you follow me?” “Into hell, if you so desire” which FUCKS ME UP and NYXION DOES THAT)! And and I love when they GIVE THEMSELVES A CHANCE TO GIVE IT ALL UP FOR EACH OTHER AHHHHHHHHHH!! THEY’RE GIVING ME ALL THIS AND EVEN MORE BECAUSE THEY ARE GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am just excited to see where this goes and I am eating it up like candy.

Nyx ran her hands up along Clarion’s side. Though they were rough and strong, they were gentle with her. They treated her as if she were made of the thinnest piece of parchment, that if a hand ran over her too roughly it would tear. Of course, Nyx would be rougher with her when the time came, if she asked. But for now her fingers glided as lightly as a feather in the breeze, ghosting across the queen’s body as they kissed softly, lips meeting only for moments but those moments made her heart jump in her chest.

“Ah yes, once I let it happen.” Nyx chuckled, resting her forehead to Clarion’s for a bit, “You know, with anyone else that would seem like an impossible request.” She slid her hand to Clarion’s back and just held her close, “But for you, for my queen, my petal, perhaps I could let it slide and let you spoil me with something.”

Clarion shivered a little, the light touch of Nyx’s fingers making her skin tingle, every part of her aware of where her hands were. It was exhilirating, exciting, and it encouraged her to let her own hands trail down Nyx’s spine, gently brushing against that part of her back just before her wings. She was beautiful.

“How very generous of you,” Clarion replied with a laugh, leaning in to kiss the corner of her mouth. “I think one of my wishes would be to...to help clean your wings sometime.” It was a very personal and intimate thing to do, but it was something she couldn’t help but desire.

The Mayor Will See You Now || OPEN

.

See, this was relatively painless, wasn’t it? 

He could see why Clarion and Belle had clashed, definitely. They were stubborn women. Strong women. With tightly held principles that had come into conflict with each other. Hades hoped that his own principles wouldn’t do the same, but it was a balancing act you know– keeping Swynlake economically healthy without compromising its natural resources.

Maybe Clarion would be a good check and balance in that kind of way. Hades needed someone with strong opinions after all, or else he could easily bully his way through things. 

Hades nodded. “Of course, same to you. I appreciate you coming down to meet with me properly. On my part, I promise to keep you informed of anything involving Enchantra. We can even arrange a monthly or quarterly check-in, depending on what you think is necessary.”

.

“Of course. I believe it’s important to establish a good working relationship for the future.” Granted, Clarion would want to introduce Atta to him when she could as well, seeing as she was making plans for her mentee to take over someday soon.

Clarion thought that honestly made enough of a point between the two of them that there wouldn’t be much need to linger. “Hmm...I think a monthly check in sounds reasonable enough to me. Of course if urgent matters do come up, then I’m sure we can get in touch sooner and make arrangements.”

She got to her feet and smiled at the new mayor. “I should get going, but it was great to make your acquaintance. And I wish you good luck and fair winds.”

ROMO - Forbidden Love/OG Twilight Couple Goals/Lovers to Friends to Lovers Again/Amnesia 

“And so the lion fell in love with the lamb…" he murmured. I looked away, hiding my eyes as I thrilled to the word. "What a stupid lamb," I sighed. "What a sick, masochistic lion.”

Listen. I have loved Romo for a long time. They’ve been through so much! Honestly the whole concept of a fairy/vampire romance when one could definitely kill the other and there being that very real threat in between that means they SHOULDN’T be together. Like all the signs point that they shouldn’t but they do anyway. I think that’s so beautiful.

And then of course it didn’t just STOP there. You know the forbidden love angst and all that of course is some great dramatic tension, but then you have them break up and Robbie becoming human and forgetting things and so you have that OTHER classic trope: the amnesia which leads to them connecting again and the love building again on Robbie’s side. 

And now they’re close again and doing things on their own terms, and Nemo is able to love people freely the way that he’s always wanted to. I think the fact that Robbie is so content with himself and with that and where they’ve come is just awesome. Less love triangles. More free love.

Nyxion: Bodyguard Crush 

“ If you hurt my girl, you will answer directly to me, and whatever crimes I commit against you, remember, I have diplomatic immunity in 46 countries “

But really, there are so many to choose them for this sexy pair of women. You want a forbidden romance??? Check. You want a ROYAL romance??? Double check! What about love through the ages? Hell yah. 

I pick the Bodyguard Crush though because it’s a unique little thing that we don’t have a lot of! There’s just something about love vs. duty that itches an extremely special niche. Nyx serving her queen for years, always putting the Hollow above her own feelings, only to learn that Clarion loves her too! The two of them united by a shared goal that is bigger than themselves! It’s basically a workplace romance (which I love) put on steroids, where the stakes are life and death. Plus, I love all their sneaking around and kissing in trees and dreaming about a future after Clarion is no longer queen. 

And of course, I have my fingers crossed for a happy ending. Because there is no greater romantic act than Clarion putting her crown to the side and choosing Nyx over everything else. Will it happen??? Before it does though can i request a super sexy para where we see Nyx protecting Queen Clarion in action? Thnx.
