Nessian prompt? Nesta braiding Cassian’s hair (or vice versa)

"I think I'm doing pretty good."

Nesta winced. "Yeah, Cass. You're...doing great."

Cassian's fingers stilled. "Too rough?"

Nesta laughed, quietly, as she looked at their reflections in the mirror. Cassian was sitting on the edge of their bed, his fingers in her hair, while Nesta sat cross-legged on the floor, a book in her hands.

He had been learning how to braid.

Nesta had been his practice-tool.

"Stop looking at the mirror," Cassian said, his wings wrapping around her, hiding her line of vision, for emphasis. "I want the end result to be a surprise."

"Then why did you make me sit in front of the mirror?" Nesta asked, unable to stop her laughter. "It brings temptation."

Cassian shrugged, continuing to braid her long, golden-brown hair. "I've always thought you were pretty good at controlling your temptations. We lived under the same roof for months before you finally caved and crawled into bed with me, after all."

Nesta looked over her shoulder and rolled her eyes.

Cassian laughed, quietly, and straightened her head. "Keep still, Nes."

She did as she was told, holding her book back up so that she could see the pages.

Braiding had been Cassian's latest hobby. Since finding out Nesta was with child, he was destined to learn everything he could about being a father. The week before, he had brushed up on every Illyrian lullaby and folktale he could find in the library's history section. The week before that, he had learned how to crochet from some elderly women in town. 

The first blanket he'd brought home was rough.

The second one was slightly better...it was currently sitting in the nursery, draped over a chair, but Nesta hoped he'd give it a third try before the baby arrived.

This week, his mission was to perfect the art of braiding.

Cassian was halfway done with her braid as Nesta looked up to the mirror, but Cassian’s wings were soon blocking her view, yet again.

She snorted. “Seriously?”

“I told you not to look until I’m done. You get the wings.” 

With quiet laughter, she said, “Fine.” 

As Cassian was nearing the end of the braid, Nesta reached up and brushed the tips of her fingers along the edge of his wing.

Cassian jumped, swearing as he did so, which only made him pull on the end of Nesta’s hair, making her yelp.

“Ow!” she laughed. 

“You can’t touch me there!” he scolded, tying a ribbon around the bottom of her braid. 

“Why not?” she crooned. 

“You know why,” he muttered. “It...tickles.” 

“Illyrian baby,” she mumbled. 

“I heard that,” he said, only to see Nesta’s shoulders shaking with laughter. “Alright, alright.” He moved his wings out of her view and she met her reflection in the mirror. “How’d I do?”

Nesta looked at the braid, twisted her head to the left, then to the right. She pretended to study it far longer than she typically would have, only because she knew it drove Cassian mad. 

She leaned her head back and looked at Cassian. “My honest opinion?”

His eyes narrowed. “Yes.”

Nesta sighed, and looked back at her reflection. “I think it’s beautiful, Cass.”

Cassian reached forward and pulled Nesta’s back against the bed, between his legs. “Beautiful enough to cross braiding off my checklist?” 

Nesta chuckled. “Depends, what’s next on your checklist?” 

“Hmmm,” Cassian began, his head tossed back as he looked up at the ceiling. “Wood working, I think. Kid’s gonna need a crib.” 

A light sparked in Nesta’s eyes as she looked back at their reflection, and Cassian wrapped his arms around her. She reached up and fiddled with the end of her braid. “Yeah. I suppose you can cross braiding off the checklist.”

His grin made her toes curl as he kissed her forehead, then stole the book off her lap before pulling her onto the bed on top of him.

Another prompt? Nesta reading to Cassian and him resting his head over her chest and letting her voice and heartbeat lull him to sleep. Maybe after a nightmare or a night where he is having trouble sleeping

This is precious AF and I loveeee the idea so much you have no idea

[nestaswife]

PLEASE DO NOT THINK FOR EVEN A SECOND THAT YOUR VOICE WILL NOT HAVE AN IMPACT THIS IS LITERALLY THE BARE MINIMUM

nesta isn’t evil,

nesta is victim of abuse. she is traumatized, and strong, and cold, and head-strong, and broken, and lonely, and angry, and hurt. honestly, nesta is probably one of the most complex female characters I have ever seen. she’s just a girl, who has massive trauma and a girl who is terrified to take a bath.

she has so much trauma that she doesn’t know how to deal with.

nesta is many things but evil she is not. as a character, nesta is one of the most realistic and frankly one of the most relatable.

I’m so sick of this fandom hating female characters for the same traits they praise male characters for. some people will talk about how much they hate nesta then reminisce about when rhys dressed feyre in body paint, scanty clothes and then paraded her around in the same sentence.

damon slander

i’m watching the vampire diaries for the 2nd time? i think. and i cannot express how much hate i have for this man. i’m on season 3 and i honestly think there’s nothing he can do to redeem himself. WHY DO PEOPLE LOVE HIM SO MUCH? here are a few reasons.

1. he abused and raped caroline, not just her but other women. constanly.

2. he killed jeremy (not that i minded, but still)

3. when stefan and elena were together he had such little respect for their relationship. he kissed katherine thinking it was elena AFTER STEFAN SAVED HIM. 

4. he made elena read through his damn diary when stefan was off on a ripper binge so she would be “prepared for anything she might see” LIKE WHAT.

5. he killed lexi. stefans oldest friend. FOR WHAT

i think its kind of distubring how much the show wanted to shove down our throats how damon was a “good guy”. how we were supposed to feel bad for him, because deep down he cares. buuuulllshiiit. i just don’t understand why he is so loved by the fandom.

the entire winter court is just this picture.

i remember when i first read the first three books of acotar i wanted a kallias and vivianne book so bad. i just love them so much. i always end up liking side characters that get no attention more than the main characters. help.

inspired by @lord-of-perranth :)

crying

nesta laughing and cassian losing his mind over it >

Nesta laughed. The sound might as well have been a lightning strike to his head for how much it rocked him, that laugh. Free and light and so unlike anything he‘d ever heard from her that even Azriel blinked. A true laugh.

and

She couldn‘t help it. Couldn‘t stop it. Not the flash of desire, but the smile that overtook her face. She huffed a laugh. Cassian stared at her like he hadn‘t seen her before.

and

She laughed again. [...] He couldn‘t tear himself from the quiet joy lighting her face. So he offered her a soft smile.

and

She smiled, and damn if it wasn‘t the loveliest thing he‘d ever seen.

PLEASEE IM SCREAMING

Just a PSA that I am truly an IDIOT!

*ive decided to aggressively post things that don’t acknowledge this TV show madness so here’s a fun story about me being an actual dumbass*

For over a month I have been confused by the whole “cut the ribbon” thing in ACOSF. Is it really that hard to cut a ribbon? Like is this actually some big test?

Well recently my friend informed me that I was picturing the whole situation very much incorrectly.

I WAS REALLY OUT HERE FOR WEEKS PICTURING THIS RIBBON TIED TAUT BETWEEN 2 POINTS.

I DID NOT REALIZE IT WAS TIED TO THE TOP OF A BEAM AND JUST FLUTTERING DOWN LIKE YEAH THAT’D BE FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE TO CUT.

I’m aware that this is described very clearly in the book.... I am just literally an idiot omfg for WEEKS I’ve been confused 🙄🙄🙄
