Backstory 1 | 2 | 3 | 4
You were highborn, but you barely knew it. Your mother a distant cousin of the tsaritsa. Nobody ever called you a "princess".
Your father died in the war when you were a child, and you moved to the countryside along with your mother, at another aunt's place.
You learnt the etiquette and studied your lessons, but you also fetched the water, picked up the eggs in the morning and went running in the woods with your cousins.
Staring at the night sky without falling asleep was the game you liked to play the most. There was a special feeling to the darkness of the cosmos. The city lights were far away, and you could sense the shadows all around you, like a comfortable blanket. Your cousins were sometimes scared, you were not.
You liked it there. You felt the world at your feet. It all changed when your power came to the surface.

𝐁𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐙𝐨𝐲𝐚
⤷ female, ambiguous race, and any size reader. Requests are open, thank you for reading! 
a/n: honestly ... this is the relationship I want ...
ᴹᵃˢᵗᵉʳˡᶤˢᵗ  
SFW🌿
⭑ At first, it was a love triangle -
⭑ Both Grisha women were vying for your attention, and it was MAYHEM. ANARCHY. CHAOS. 
⭑ Genya would wake up extra early, attend to the queen and then herself (more so than usual-)
⭑ Zoya’s ego seemed to be inflated, while secretly she felt the most insecure she ever had. Which probably is a red flag, but she’s never had to fight for someone’s attention. Not ever. 
⭑ You were confused, completely and utterly. 
⭑ Because there were these two absolutely GORGEOUS women who wanted ... you. And that’s not to say that you aren’t attractive, but this has never happened before. 
⭑ You weren’t the most popular growing up, sports were never really your thing. 
⭑ You knew you liked to make people smile, or laugh, or feel like the world was something worth living for. 
⭑ And that’s what they saw in you - hope. 
⭑ Because just by being around you they felt uplifted 
⭑ So that’s why they fought for your attention
⭑ And I don’t mean squabbaling. I mean ... trying to one up the other. Being more romantic, or being the one to talk to you after training was over. 
⭑ And lets be honest ... it wasn’t the worst feeling. Even though you knew at one point you would have to choose. 
⭑ But one day you were talking with one of your friends and she said, “why choose?”
       “Well... I have to...”
“Who says?”
        “Everyone?”
“Fuck everyone.”
      “I know you do-” you played it off as a joke, not taking her seriously. But that planted a seed in your mind that you couldn’t get rid of. 
⭑ I think Genya would be the first to agree to polyamory. Although she likes to fit in with the people around her, the thought of having more than one person excites her. And Zoya is a very beautiful woman ... Genya secretly had a crush on her for years
⭑ Zoya on the other hand ...
⭑ Well, lets just say she doesn’t share with others
⭑ But no one was pushed into this relationship. 
⭑ There was no rush
⭑ So over time, it happened organically ... you and Genya started the relationship and let Zoya know she could join at any time
⭑ She would point her nose in the air and ignore the two of you
⭑ Until one night, when the moon was high and the Darkling had gone to sleep. She had seen you and Genya kissing, and something inside of her had cracked. Not in a broken way, but in a birthing way - like a bird freeing itself from an egg.
⭑ “Maybe ... this isn’t such a bad idea...” Zoya muttered one afternoon
⭑ Your poly relationship moved around the Little Palace quickly, and I mean ...  very quickly.
⭑ It was hot gossip, and I mean who could blame the other Grisha? Not many exciting things happened at the Little Palace. 
⭑ At one point, when the gossip was at its peak, you thought the Darkling might actually come and talk to you about it. But that never happened. 
⭑ A few days after Zoya said yes, the three of you sat down in the gardens and talked about boundaries. What was appropriate, what you definitely did not want to do. 
⭑ It wasn’t so much as creating a set of rules ... but guidelines that helped keep the relationship positive and healthy
⭑ You’re all a force to be reckoned with ... and in a way, you sort of run the Little Palace in terms of hierachy 
⭑ And Genya is accepted within the ranks. You and Zoya make sure of that
⭑ But she keeps hidden (for now) what the King does to her (she knows that the two of you will ruin him.)
⭑ Zoya always wants to go on fancy dates - chandeliers, makeup, jewelry. While Genya likes being near the water/outside. You love nature, so you had an idea that you would dress up and walk amongst the forest, the trees, the grass. 
⭑ Zoya thought that idea was stupid, until you three actually did it and she felt so ethereal
⭑ SO MUCH SASS ALL THE TIME
⭑ And some people are like, “bro did they really just say that,” and you’re like ??? 
⭑ Absolutely NO ONE fcks with you, (or Genya, or Zoya for that matter.)
⭑ Power houses, because you train together - 
⭑ Oh and no one holds back, so it’s serious training 
⭑ Relationship Tropes: 
  ✧ Rival x Flustered, Never Been Shown Affection x Rival (But both rivals are soft and supportive of one another)
  ✧ Touch Either One Of My Girlfriends And You Die x3
  ✧ Asshole (Genya) x Also An Asshole But It’s Tough To Tell Because Of Their Cute Exterior (You) x Even More Of An Asshole (Zoya)
✧ “Trust Me, Given The Legal Opportunity, I Will Kill You” (Genya) x If It Were Not For The Laws Of This Land, I Would Have Slaughtered You” (You) x “If I Were Not Holy I Would Beat You Senseless.” (Zoya)
  NSFW🔞minors dni!
⭑ They both LOVE TOYS; dildos, nipple clamps etc
⭑ Genya has a HUGE mummy kink, while Zoya has an even bigger daddy kink
⭑ They both love playing with your tits and pulling, biting, licking your nipples
⭑ Have had library sex 
⭑ Sometimes Genya likes to watch as you and Zoya touch each other 
⭑ Mutual masturbation
⭑ “I’ll watch and learn how you like to be touched.”
⭑ Leaving marks on each other to find when getting dressed
⭑ Sex is way more light-hearted and fun than you would think. Zoya can be very serious when she’s trying to seduce you, but paired with Genya as well - you guys cannot help but giggle
⭑ Making out after training, or mid-training - everyone is sweating, their heart-beating fast and no one can stop their desire 
⭑ Probably have been caught a few times\
⭑ Sex is the only time where Zoya lets others tell her what to do - she’s a switch but moreso a sub
⭑ Genya is a dom 
⭑ Aftercare is wonderous. Both Genya and Zoya become very very cuddly, and like to stroke your high and nuzzle into your neck.

While rewatching "Shadow and Bone" on Netflix I heard something that made me giggle.
In the first ep Kaz says something like: “If it would’ve been a trap it would sound easy”
And I get what he says, but knowing the plot of SoC it sounds so funny

SHADOW & BONE - CHAPTER 5
“Well,” I said, “there was an old serf who worked on the estate …”
“Go on,” he said. “Tell me.”
“He … he said that Darklings are born without souls. That only something truly evil could have created the Shadow Fold.” I glanced at his cold face and added hastily, “But Ana Kuya sent him packing and told us it was all peasant superstition.”
The Darkling sighed. “I doubt that serf is the only one who believes that.”
I said nothing. Not everyone thought like Eva or the old serf, but I’d been in the First Army long enough to know that most ordinary soldiers didn’t trust Grisha and felt no allegiance to the Darkling.

Notes: there is so much I want to explain about this fanfic! But i have decided to let most of it to the plot.
First, this is an au set on Os Alta University in some version of modern Ravka and that means will have mentions of others Grishaverse’s characters. The most important thing that I want to let clear since the beginning: Kaz will not have full touch aversion, the same goes for Inej trauma, but don’t worry we will get the angst.
I’ll post this on AO3, but I’ll keep you guys updated here also!! You can find me on AO3 here.

Ride on
Tumblr media
Ch. 4 When you meet the Black General during your morning ride, challenging him to a race, you are not expecting to face a life changing consequence. [Masterlist] Previous - Next
You need a distraction. You go riding at first light, up to the hills on royal grounds. You don't care if the tsarina has given you permission as long as you have a chaperone - you go all alone and you ride as fast as you can, until dawn breaks in.
The moon is no longer in the sky and you sigh with relief. The dream still lingers on, though. You just can't stop thinking about it.
You almost don't believe your eyes when a rider emerges on the other side of the hill. It's a black rider.
It's him.
As he comes closer, you have to believe it's a coincidence. It's too scary to think that he's following you. It's even scarier to think that he had the same dream as you, last night.
"A morning stroll", he says, half smiling, instead of a formal greeting. But he doesn't forget his manners and bows his head. "Milady".
You do the same, happily avoiding his glare. "We seem to share this habit".
"Indeed, we do".
"Well, I'd hate to keep you, General", you mutter, your heart beating fast and not for the ride. "I shall-"
But he doesn't let you go. "Allow me to apologize for last night".
For a moment, you think he's speaking of the dream. But he couldn't actually have had the same dream as you, couldn't he? You look at him, harshly, and you wait.
He continues. "I could see I made you uncomfortable. Forgive me".
"I shall forgive you", you say, abruptly. Your horse is restless, he's struggling to go, and you feel just the same, so you get bold; too bold, as usual. "I shall forgive you if you reach the top of the hill, before me".
He looks puzzled.
You continue. "Oh, c'mon, General. You wouldn't think you could lose?"
He smiles, now, slightly amused. "And if you win?"
You smile back. Too bold. "I will not forgive you, then".
Your horse takes off and you leap forward, eyes on the hill, not even bothering to look if he's coming or not.
He is, of course, galloping straight towards you, so you spur your steed even faster, so much it feels like flying.
He could easily beat you, you are sure of it, but he doesn't, and now you're running up the hill side by side.
You realize it's more fun to ride together, than to ride alone.
"You didn't win on purpose", you say once you reach the top. You're out of breath, so you sit under a tree. He dismounts too, but remains standing, and you feel relieved he doesn't come to sit next to you. You almost laugh thinking of what the tsarina would say, if you told her you eventually had a chaperone, on your morning ride, and that it was the Black General himself.
"I also didn't lose", he replies. "Sometimes, a draw is the wisest result to be achieved."
He's clever. You like that. You also know you can't trust him.
But the dream you had last night lingers in your body and makes it difficult to keep a straight face.
You wonder how it would be if you told him everything.
No more hiding. You could blend with the moon every night, if you wished so. Your eyes fill with tears just thinking about it.
"There is something I must tell you", you suddenly say. The thoughts so fast, they escaped your mouth.
He tries not to look too interested, but he is. He's trying to hide it. "No need. It's a draw, isn't it? A truce".
"I must", you repeat, mostly to yourself. "I..."
Then you remember that Grisha are weapons, around here. That war is not a symbol on maps and books, and that you are no fighter. That's what you had been told, over and over, and it scares you.
"I... sleepwalk".
"You... sleepwalk?"
"That's how I ended up on Little Palace grounds. An incident". That's not even a lie. It's fine. You didn't lie to him. Nothing to hide. "I trust you will keep my secret. I should get back, now. Thank you for the... ride."
You raise your eyes, to meet his. He is bending over you, offering his hand. "Of course I will keep your secret".
Those words make you shiver. He's just helping you up, there's no reason to refuse. Still, you hesitate.
"I could never go with you", you think. "No matter how I wanted to".
But you do want to take his hand. That's the point.
You place your hand in his, and he pulls you up.
But he doesn't let go.
Instead, his grasp grows so strong it almost hurts.
Right in the moment your bare hand has touched his, you have started to shine. Moonlight runs on your skin, in your eyes, on your hair, and you look at him in shock. You didn't even know you could summon in the daytime. What is he doing to you?
You feel naked. You feel free. You feel terrified. You feel powerful.
The Darkling looks at you like he knew all along. Your faces are so close, you could just lean over and resume were the dream has ended.
Instead, you pull away, abruptly, freeing your hand.
Like a signal has been cast, his shadows come out from everywhere. You have never seen them before. They run towards you like wolves, they crawl like dragon tails, and you respond.
Beams of moonlight spur from you, glimmering and glistering, pure ferocious night light in the middle of the dawn, chasing the shadows away.
But they are not really gone, they are hiding in the grass, observing you.
The Darkling has said nothing yet.
You turn away, get on your horse, look at him - just staring at you, and a million things unsaid in that stare - then you leave.
The Darkling doesn't even bother to come after you. He knows that you are not running away.
There's no running away, not anymore.
Are you having fun with this, yet? I'm having a LOT of fun. Feel free to leave a comment, if you appreciate this pastime and want to know what happens next.

aesthetic meme: [1/7] AUs → pre-canon!darkolai
“Do you think I’m like the Darkling?” I studied him — the golden hair, the sharp uniform, those too-clever hazel eyes. “No,” I said slowly. “I don’t think you are.” I rose to go join Mal. “But I’ve been wrong before.” — "siege & storm" *** At night they were the jaunty dandies, at daylight — knights of bitter wars. They weren’t "royalists" and "traitors" — they were all their country’s sons. But that life span in short-lived cyclone, and passed like fleeting summer cloud, Above impassible horizon their guiding star was burning out. — "to the generals of the russian civil war"
