Spicy Elucien Headcanon

Below the cut because I don't want to get flagged.

It may not be every every time, but it's not uncommon for Lucien to tie his hair back--like he does when he's about to get to other kinds of work--when he's about to go down on Elain.

His eyes stay locked on hers the entire time as he does so, fully aware of the effect it has on her as he holds that leather strap in his teeth and gathers that gorgeous, fiery, silken mane in his hands; a few loose strands falling round his face. How her own eyes blaze as she takes in his form and the color that floods her face as she takes in the sight of him kneeling before her.

Elain is mortified later on when Lucien ties his hair back again during a meeting with Rhys, Cassian, and Az and her body immediately reacts. When Feyre and Nesta catch her biting her lip and looking from her to Lucien before exchanging a knowing look.

She briefly debates climbing back into the Cauldron at that.

This is just a thought that I had but I like that we get a different side of Elain with Lucien.

Not only was their conversation together one of the only times we got a glimpse inside her mind and her struggles, but we also got the glimpse of her ruthlessness. She’s usually very tame and tries to not hurt people but when it comes to Lucien we feel her anger, even if quiet, it sizzles.

She’s not sorry for breaking his heart. She raises her voice to Feyre when she asks her to give him a chance.

Lucien brings out her rebellious side, her non-conformist side, even in spite of his happiness I guess, but she doesn’t owe it to him and he knows that. She did shrink to herself after he gifted her the pearls, but I don’t think it means she is complying to him, in fact she’s not, she’s dominating the situation all the time.

The other times we see Elain become this bold is when she wants to do something and people keep coddling her. These two issues go hand in hand.

It makes me think about when these two triggers collide, when Lucien has the opportunity to also coddle her and she’s about to go off on him but instead he aids her. I would like to see how her anger tries to come out anyway, unable to accept that he, the one who was placed upon her, is undeniably the one to see her. She will be so angry at that too.

This is the tension I want.

Thinking about elucien on Valentine's Day and how Lucien most definitely waited until Elain was asleep the night before to sneak in the many bouquets of roses he'd prepared, leaving them all around their home for her to find with little gifts to go with each set of flowers.

Thinking about Elain waking up to make Lucien heart-shaped delights for breakfast and finding all those flowers/gifts and squealing with joy.

Thinking about Lucien waking up to the sound of her humming happily in their kitchen and smiling stupidly when he finds the gift she'd left waiting on the bed for him.

Thinking about Lucien walking into their kitchen and hugging Elain from behind, holding her close as she giggles in his arms, nuzzling his face into her hair.

Thinking about how they're so in love and feel like they're the luckiest two in the world to have found each other. Thinking about how every day feels like Valentine's Day because they found a home in each other and it simply couldn't get any better than this.

In honour of the final day of @elucienweekofficial I present...

Reasons why elucien is happening:

SJM has been teasing the fired*ck since acowar which means she'll need to give us Lucien or his love interest a pov sooner or later otherwise there will be rioting in the streets.

The only way Lucien will get a pov is if he's paired with an Archeron sister so unless SJM is planning on giving us some crackship action, I see no other alternative ;)

#just a silly little way to end off a great week! #👏 to everyone who participated #elucien #elain archeron #lucien vanserra #elucien headcanons #elucienweek #elucienweek2023

[bookofmirth]

Someone said, feysand was “you owe me a thought” and nessian was “keep reaching out your hand” and gwynriel will be “tell me a secret” and I think it would be nice. I’m curious what elucien’s will be.

Hmmmm I wonder! I imagine that they would have names for each other that belie their intentions or meanings. Like they call one another by their first names normally and it always has a hint of feeling affectionate. Like Lucien calling her "Elain" means he sees her and not the High Lady's sister, or the Valkyrie's sister, or the one who used to be human and now is Made. And when Elain calls him "Lucien", it's about him and not the son of Autumn, or the future High Lord, or his connection to any other court. And they call each other My Lord and My Lady when they are playing diplomat. I can see that being like a game between them, to see what names they can come up with that have a double entendre.

It's like how feysand and nessian had bargains - maybe the other couples will too? I can especially see it with elucien because they need to find a "truce" while dealing with their tension. With gwynriel, I can see it being more of a competitive bargain, like a bet.

Elain Archeron Week 2023 Day 5: Lover

Do we think Lucien thinks of Elain when he wears his fawn colored jacket? And the gold thread…

“We don’t know,” Lucien replied, the dappled sunlight glinting along the gold thread adorning his fawn-brown jacket as he crossed his arms. (ACOWAR, Ch.3)

Her eyes were the brown of a fawn’s coat. And he could have sworn something sparked in them as she met his gaze. (ACOWAR, Ch.24)

…one single thread of gold tied me to you.

[captain-of-the-gwynriel-ship]

I went on a mini elucien rant in a comment on FB so I thought I would add it here

People do not realize how much Elain and lucien are similar.

They are both quick witted. Elain doesn’t speak much, but when she does she is sharp and smart and funny. I think once they get more comfortable around each other, their banter will be top tier. Honestly elucien and gwynriel banter is gold standard.

They are both lovers/courtiers not fighters.

She has always wanted to travel the world, and he is a nomadic emissary and has been everywhere.

When she was at her worst moment, he broke his magical restraints and was the only one to show her kindness.

They both have loved deeply and thought that their past partner was their soulmate.

After turning, she consistently sits outside in the sun and constantly asks for sunlight. When feyre comes home in ACOWAR, she notes all the windows were drawn open in elain’s room and there were no shadows just sunlight. Her mate is the heir of the day court.

She prefers pastel and light color clothing, and that is what makes her stand out while night court black makes her dull and sucks the life out of her.

SJM has been giving us SO MANY CLUES that these two are endgame.

This is really just my shortlist.

Little headcanon: whenever it’s Elain’s turn to babysit Nyx, she takes him to her garden, so the little dude naturally learns all the random things you could possibly learn about flowers, so once he grows up and turns into a shameless flirt like his father, he will impress all the ladies with his tmi flower knowledge and he will be so smug about it. 💐

#also he will gift his auntie elain the most pompous bouquets whenever she visits #and elain will shoot a glance at lucien every time like you better take notes #elain & nyx will have the cutest bond #elucien headcanons #elain archeron #lucien vanserra #elucien #nyx #ll

If Lucien and Elain were in the modern world, they would have food or animal nicknames for each other like pumpkin, cookie, jellybean, muffin, dove, bunny, and on and on it goes.

Lucien would bring out this very giggly, squealing, chasing each other around the house side to Elain. It would be disgustingly cute. She just glows and comes to life. And when he does finally catch her…..well, let’s just say there’s nothing “cute” at all about what’s gonna happen next 🔥🔥 even when he adorably calls her cupcake.

Getting a little cheesy thinking about Lucien watching Elain dancing and singing along to one of her favorite songs in their living room. She has no idea that he’s watching her with this stupid smile on his face and when she finally does notice, she blushes just a little but keeps dancing and starts singing to him. It’s a good night.

#elucien #lucien vanserra #elain archeron #elucien headcanons #i just love of idea of her being in her own little world and he’s watching her like ‘yup she’s mine’ #ITS CUTE #gpost #don’t mind me in my fluffy elucien feels lol #inspired by Every Little Thing by Russell Dickerson

Elain Watches Lucien Chop Wood 😏

a drabble for @elucienweek2022 day six, home

Elain watched rapturously through the window as Lucien shrugged out of his jacket, leaving him in white shirt and dark green trousers held up by suspenders.

He rolled back the cuffs of his shirt to expose the sun-darkened, golden brown skin of his forearms; the veins crisscrossing the corded muscles visible even from where she stood.

Lucien bent over to pick up the axe, giving Elain an ideal view of his perfectly sculpted ass, and those thickly muscled thighs she loved digging her fingers into. She watched the muscles in his back contract and ripple beneath the thin linen as he stood.

Her heartbeat sped up as he hefted the axe over his shoulder and swung with enough strength to split the thick log as if it had been butter left in a patch of sunlight. Elain’s thighs shifted together as she observed.

He did this every day, and every single time she watched until he came back inside, desperate to give him something else to do with those warm, calloused hands.

Domestic Elucien Headcanons

Some soft headcanons for your Sunday. ♥️

Elain will always be the baker in their household, but Lucien is very competent in the kitchen in his own right. He enjoys cooking some of his own favorite recipes from other courts and that he's learned over his travels, and he always gets the fire just right. Elain loves his cooking and finds the whole process extremely attractive, especially with the way he ties his hair back and rolls his sleeves up before getting to work.

She's no Nesta in terms of skill or technique, but she loves to dance with Lucien. Whether they're just swaying peacefully in the comfort of their own home or at one court function or another, she loves the feeling of being in his arms and how confident and competent he is in his lead. Lucien figures out she likes to dance with him and will sometimes make little excuses to do so.

They're both extremely, intuitively considerate of each other and aware in even the littlest ways. It's not unusual for him to use his magic to warm up her towel before she steps out of the bath or for her to bring him a hot, comforting cup of tea before he even expresses that he's tired or stressed.

Elain loves when he's fully relaxed and reading. She'll lie with him for a while under the blanket or curl up with him in the armchair, but eventually can't help herself in distracting him from his book.

He is 100% the hug-from-behind type when she's baking or working out in her garden and Elain loves it.

They love to go on walks in the woods or horseback riding together, and especially with the former, Lucien likes to pull her aside and quietly guide her to one animal he knows she loves or another. Foxes, fawns...they'll stay there together and observe them in silence.

They're not nearly as all over each other around their friends or family (as Elain prefers to keep things as private as possible with him) like they tend to be at home, but the vibe's still there and so palpable it's borderline nauseating to a few of the others.

[lucienarcheron]

what love languages do you associate most with Elucien?

They both strike me as Acts of Service types of people in how they give love. I always see them as wanting to give/do things for their loved ones and being there for them. Lucien especially always comes off as a "how do I make this easier for you?" type of guy just like Elain is someone I see as a "how can I help?" person.

I see both Lucien and Elain as people who like to receive love through Quality Time and Words of Affirmation. I think Elain would also like Physical Touch which is something I don't see for Lucien but he is happy to touch her as much as she wants him to haha.

I think receiving gifts is probably last on their list but that doesn't mean they don't love giving/receiving those too it's just not as important as the others.

Elucien | She Deserves Better

type: angsty

warning(s): curse words

word count: 1278

*all rights reserved*

——————

Elain didn‘t want to eavesdrop. She didn’t want listen. But most importantly she didn’t want to believe what she was hearing. She peaked around the corner for just a brief moment, hoping to catch a quick glance at her mate.

"Feyre, you don’t get it. You have to break the bond. I know you can do it. Break the stupid bond, Feyre Cursebreaker.” 

Elain’s younger sister shook her head. "Lucien, why now? Why all of a sudden?“

"Because I see what it does to her. I see how much of a burden this bond is. I see how it…pains her to be mated to me." 

Once again the High Lady of the Night Court shook her head. "That is not—"

"It is. Try not to make anything better than it is. This bond is useless. No one wants it."

"You do!"

The Autumn Court male smacked his palm flat onto the table, standing in one quick movement. "I do not. I do not when I see what it does to her. It destroys her and I don’t want to force her into something like he did with my mother."

"You are nothing like Beron." Feyre responded quickly, also standing.

"I am. If I force an innocent female into a bond with someone she despises. Elain does not want me. She does not want a male. And she deserves better than me. I do not deserve her."

"You know that this is bullshit." Feyre protested.

"It is not. I am not good for her. Maybe your Shadowsinger is, I am not. I will never be the one she wants." Lucien’s voice was hoarse, breaking with the last spoken syllable. Sorrow collided with the feeling of longing, coating his insides with something like icy-hot fire.

"Again this is bullshit. Why else do you think," —spinning on her heel, Feyre lifted her hand and pointed a slender finger to the door leading to the corridor— "would my sister pry behind this door, eavesdropping."

Elain’s breath hitched in her throat, her eyes going wide.

"Yes, sister, your thoughts are very damn loud and all of them are surrounding you, Lucien."

A cold, unimpressed snort left Lucien. He rolled his eyes, pushing away from the table and past Feyre. He pivoted into the direction where Elain apperently was hiding. 

He had enough. Enough of the pain. Enough of the shit. Enough of the…Archeron sisters.

"I am sorry." It was all Elain could say once Lucien stepped into the corridor, not even glancing at his mate.

"I don’t care, but I hope you now know what my plan is. I hope you know that I am going to break this…this fucking bond. Because I am so sick of it. Three years. And you cannot even look at me. I won’t force you into something you don’t want. It would not be fair. You deserve better. You deserve happiness and love." Lucien passed by Elain, heading for the door. 

Or he tried. 

Elain was quicker, her slim fingers curling around Lucien’s warm wrist, stopping him. His face snapped towards her, their gazes meeting and…locking. 

For the very first time. For the very first time they really looked at each other—into each other eyes. Warm hazel met with russet and gold. Elain’s stomach dipped, lips parting. Her fingers curled tighter around her mate’s wrist, their gazes still locked.

"I am sorry." Elain breathed again. 

"Don’t…" Lucien murmured, drawing in a deep breath. "Don’t apologise. You have done nothing wrong. If anyone has done something wrong it’s the Cauldron or the Mother. They put us into this awful situation. If the Cauldron had just made the third Illyrian male your mate, it would be so much easier."

"It wouldn’t!”

"It wouldn’t?" Lucien’s heart halted, his palms dampening.

"I said, I don’t want a male or a mate because it would rob me of the last mortal thing I had. If Azriel was my mate it would change nothing. He is fae as much as you are." Elain explained, serenity and honesty lacing her voice. Lucien felt relief which was odd given the situation, but something about what Elain had said relieved him.

"It has nothing to do with you, Lucien. You are a kind, genuine, honest, smart, handsome male. But you are—"

"Fae."

Elain bowed her head, her throat burning and her lashes dampening. 

Everything around the two of them was forgotten. Where Feyre had gone to—neither of them knew. Elain still had her fingers curled around Lucien’s arm. The sunlight shone through the window, drawing small shadows of Lucien’s thick lashes onto his cheeks. 

And then he spoke the words which made the small crack in Elain’s heart about her mate’s decision break even further.

"So are you. You are fae. And there is no way of going back, I know you don’t want to hear that."

"I don’t. But yes, I know that, I am not stupid."

Lucien’s shrugged his shoulders. That reaction was not planned, it simply happened.

Elain gaped, furrowing her brows. "You think I am stupid?"

"What? No, why? Never."

"You shrugged your shoulders."

"I did not know what to answer." Lucien stated, eyes trailing over Elain’s beautiful face.

"That I am not stupid? I am your mate. Calling me stupid would be rude." A small smile tugged on Elain’s mouth. As much Lucien wanted to smile as well he couldn’t bring himself to it.

"Are you now? As much as I remember you didn’t want a mate. Or a male. Or anything fae."

"I want you—no…I—" Elain cut herself of, internally cursing her traitorous mouth and heart.

"And what of me do you exactly want? I doubt there is nothing not fae on me."

"I want to get to know you. Properly. Without my family watching over me like hawks. I want you to take me with you to Jurian and Vassa. I want to spend time with you—just you. Talk. Chat. Go on walks. Simply get to know you. Everything."

Pursing his lips, Lucien deliberated. "Yes, I can do that—bring you along. At some point maybe. In the future.”

Elain’s throat started to burn a bit more. Gods, what she felt through the bond—anger mixed with sorrow. "It wasn‘t fair how I treated you." she breathed, voice barely above a whisper.

"The whole bond is not fair. It will be the same as with my parents. And I don’t want this for you. I want you to be—"

"Happy. I know. But you are nothing like Beron. Lucien, I am struggling with being fae and the whole concept of having a mate. It is not you that is the problem. It never was. You have been nothing but kind and if I had met you under different circumstances I—" Once again Elain cut herself of, heat dashing into her cheeks, colour now spreading down her neck.

"Then what?" 

"I think I would have fallen for you the very first moment I laid eyes on you."

Something in Lucien cracked. It was nothing negative—no negative feeling, rather something positive. Warmth swarmed through his body and he smiled. And that smile—it was genuine and honest.

"Is that so? And the scar for example?"

"Makes you nothing less beautiful. Rather…interesting and oddly stunning." A grin broke out on Elain’s face, her skin colour now a beetroot red.

Lucien sucked in a shaky breath, slipping his wrist out of Elain’s hold, taking her hand into his and bringing it up to his face. Then he kissed her knuckles. The softness and warmth of his lips against her skin made a happy giggle burst out of Elain. Lucien grinned from ear to ear. "When are you ready to leave for the mortal lands, my lady?"

[bookofmirth]

I have this headcannon (a lot of ppl might have thought this actually) that Elain and Lucien are already together and they’re invited to a ball at another court. They like to casually gossip (not in a malicious way) about others around them making a spectacle. They like to stand in the sidelines chatting, people watching, and make inside jokes

They see the IC somewhere near by and poke fun at them (I say this with love)before they go over to say hi to them, bc it’s so easy for them to tease the IC

I absolutely love this and agree that they are the reigning champs of the inside jokes. They are the originators of the bit and have a hard time not reacting visibly to each other’s teasing when in public.

It will be SO easy for them to tease the IC because the IC are all “we’re so old and tough and powerful” and meanwhile Lucien and Elain know all the right buttons to push. Like you say it’s not malicious, they’re just good at making fun of people who take themselves too seriously.

They aren’t ever cruel, they can just see what people around them are up to and finally, finally, have someone else who sees it too.
