    Summary

    In the end, she had been given one semi-normal Solstice. One where, while still feeling more than a little outcast, she had been embraced by enough of these people to feel something other than abject despair or disdain for the fae holiday.

    Naturally, she’d ruined all of that just in time for the next one.

    Semi-good graces one year, back on the periphery the next.

    Such was the price for saving the universe.

    Nursing a warm cup of mulled wine, she observed the rituals of the day in solemn silence.
    ---
    In which Solstice is a time to be grateful for those we love, and in the aftermath of Bryce Quinlan wreaking havoc in their world, some holiday magic just might be what is needed to heal the wounds left behind.

    Summary

    “You brought me breakfast. Of course. Some kind of peace offering from the great High Lord and his inner circle?” Cassian finally rallied his composure before this conversation could get any further off track.

    “Yes. Breakfast.” He held out the bag to her. “Seemed like an appropriate gift, from a new neighbor.”

    Someone who didn’t know her might have been forgiven for thinking they were already witnessing the pinnacle of Nesta Archeron’s rage. But as her scowl twisted into something deeper, Cassian knew he’d only scratched the surface. “Neighbor?!”
    --
    Cassian is outraged by the Inner Circle's plan to force Nesta to move into the House of Wind against her will. To make sure she has support available without taking away her choices, he proposes an alternative : he's moving in next door to her, and is determined to earn her trust by not repeating their earlier mistakes.

    Summary

    The bond flares to life in her chest—sharp, bright, Cassian—and Nesta’s entire body goes rigid even as she forces herself to reveal nothing.

    Cassian lands first, Azriel following close behind. They’re both in their leathers, both clearly having come straight from Windhaven. Cassian’s face breaks into a grin when he sees her, sees the gathering, and something about that unguarded joy makes her throat close up.

    “Well, isn’t this nice,” he says, striding inside with that easy confidence she used to find thrilling. “A family gathering and nobody told me?”

    He crosses to where Nesta stands with Nyx, and before she can brace herself, he’s there, solid and warm and overwhelming. His hand comes to rest on the small of her back, familiar and possessive, and he presses a kiss to her temple that she feels like a brand.

    “Hey, sweetheart,” he murmurs against her hair. “Miss me?”

    —————

    Months after Bryce Quinlan returned to Midgard, Nesta barely recognizes herself anymore. She can't wrap her mind around the concept of forever when she never asked to be immortal in the first place.

    When Nesta finally breaks, Cassian is forced to confront every way he's failed her.

    Summary

    The breaking happens three weeks to the day after Bryce Quinlan retrieves her parents from the House of Wind.

    It is brutal, and as unapologetic as Lady Death herself often was, when fighting for what she believes in.

    More than anything, it is loud.

    Books are thrown around the private library, glasses are shattered with the intensity of a power that was supposed to have been bargained away yet lingered.

    Unofficially (yet all but officially) confined to this place that was somehow both a beloved home and glorified prison, banned from her work in the Library or from interacting too frequently with her Valkyries, Nesta Archeron shatters into a million pieces.

    Screaming and wailing, she breaks for hours, nearly throwing herself off the nearest balcony, before the lights flicker and a stray curtain wisps out to catch at her ankles, drawing her back.

    Nesta Archeron breaks on a bright, sunny morning.

    No one is there to witness it.

    No one except a magical abode and its many, many ghosts.

    The aftermath is as follows.

    Summary

    Emerie has long tolerated Cassian's goading of Nesta, but after a tense morning session, she finally reaches her limit and dresses the General down properly for how he's treated her friend.

    And when Feyre and Rhysand arrive to evaluate Nesta's progress, Illyrian wings and all, well, it might just be time to tell them a thing or two about their treatment of Illyria as well.

    AKA the one where Emerie calls out IC privilege, Illyrian discrimination, and defends Nesta and Illyrian Females all in one breath.

    Summary

    “Come here,” he said. So close to a plea. “Everything else aside, just…come here, Nes. I’m still here.”

    He wasn’t—he’d been more distant than ever. Coming to bed late, and leaving for the dining room before she even had the chance to wake up properly. It felt like their last conversation had been ages ago, before the girl fell onto Rhys’ lawn.

    She remembered the night before it all happened. Their last night together: her hands held above her head, and him smiling and whispering words against her neck while he made love to her.

    “You are the most precious thing in the world to me,” he’d said, under the bright moonlight.

    She missed his steady presence, and the physical comfort he gave so easily.

    She missed him.

    ***

    Or, Nesta and Cassian struggle to come back to each other after the events of CC3.

    Summary

    "Azriel watched as Nesta’s head lifted, so she could stare into his brother's eyes, and for several moments, they seemed enraptured by each other. Cassian even lifted a hand, to brush a strand of hair from her eyes.

    But then, Mor’s vibrant red dress appeared into his periphery, and her sing-song voice called out,

    “Cassian, I thought you promised to show me a good time!”

    In an instant, whatever moment that was happening between him and Nesta was shattered. Abruptly, Cassian detached himself from Nesta’s side, dropping her hand like it was ice and responding loudly about how he always kept his promises.

    Seemingly without another word, he was moving back into the blonde’s orbit.

    It was a frigid slight, the absolute definition of a dick move. Azriel felt the horror that Nesta was valiantly trying to hide as acutely as his own – so much so that he cringed.

    Cauldron, what a fucking idiot."

    ---

    A post-ACOWAR pre-ACOFAS/ACOSF missing scene/fix-it of sorts in which Azriel has had enough of Cassian being a Moron and calls out his behavior surrounding Nesta and Mor ft. angst with a happy ending.

    He smiles, all teeth, “Come on Replacement, I even got to the door with both legs busted. This should be nothing.”

    “You’re right. Jason… Jason wouldn’t have given up. He would fight, I can still—“

    The boy wobbles, and Jason has to suppress the mortifying impulse to jump to his aid.

    “I can still fight. Batman needs me.”

    “That’s a terrible idea,” he muses aloud, and if there’s a hint of real concern somewhere under all the roiling green, well, nobody can prove it.

    Peter's trapped beneath a collapsed building during a mission, hurt and unable to move. Luckily, his comm still works. Unluckily, the Avengers don’t realise how bad of a state Peter is in, and Peter isn’t inclined to tell them.

     

    “Spidey, they’ve got reinforcements. We’ve hit a bit of a snag here, and I don’t think anyone will be able to help you for a while. Think you can sit tight while we deal with this?”

    The pressure on his lower back and legs was becoming too much. Peter swallowed thickly, fighting down panic. He could handle this.

    “Yeah,” Peter said. “I can do that.”

    Summary

    Death was not what Harry thought it would be. An empty train and a being proclaiming himself to be the Death, telling him that, “sorry, no afterlife for you” certainly wasn't anywhere near his expectations.

    And having his soul and magic crammed back into his four year old body, being told that he can never die… That was another painful kick to the groin.

    But Harry is British, and the phrase “keep calm and carry on” is practically a part of him by now. He realises that this is a second chance at life. To actually live and do whatever the hell he wants without being someone else’s pawn. It is a new beginning, and things are going to be vastly different this time around.

     

    UPDATE: As of April 2025 this story has been fully edited/rewritten.
