mamma mia!

pairing: cassian x reader x azriel

summary: cassian has loved and longed for you for as long as he can remember, despite your long established relationship with his brother. he teeters on the edge of giving up on the idea of you ever loving him back. until…

(heavily inspired by ripley’s rendition of the original abba song)

warnings: angsty cassian, cass’s inner musings and monologue, very slightly alludes to sexual content

word count: 2.5k

a/n: first writing post on this silly little sideblog of mine :’) toying with the idea of a pt. 2 but i’m not too sure yet & credit to cafekitsune for the cute banner!

Cassian had never been so completely and utterly in love with anyone the way he was with you. One look at you smiling up at him made golden bells ring in his head, reverberating in his chest and filling his limbs with a tingling urgency to hold you. The feel of your skin and body slotting perfectly against his made the world stop spinning on its axis, leaving him lightheaded with sheer bliss. You incapacitated him in a way that not even the most fearsome of enemies he’s faced have before.

But you were not his. You would never be his.

You were Azriel’s through and through.

Though he would never think to scorn his brother for finding love, Cassian had asked himself on countless occasions…Why did it have to be with you?

You, who he would shun the very moon and stars his court cherished for. You, who could bring him to his knees with a simple brush of your fingers against his hand. You, who he wanted so intrinsically but could not have.

When he brought you to the townhouse all those decades ago, he had never once thought feelings like this would develop for you. At the time, he had just thought you a skilled fighter, one who could be trained and honed for the advantage of the Night Court. You were his friend and training partner. Someone he could shoot the shit with at the end of a long day, someone who listened and empathized and cared for him in a way no one else had before.

Cassian wasn’t entirely sure when he started realizing that his feelings for you ran deeper than friendship. He presumed he had begun to become aware of them after he had told you the story of his mother and you cried for him, looked into his eyes and told him you saw him.

He knew for sure he loved you after you had come to him in the middle of the night once, waking him to train. You had hit harder than you ever had before in between telling him of your own losses and suffering, cueing him into the nightmares that often plagued you because of them. That night he had stayed up with you until day broke over the horizon, exchanging stories and laughter and tears.

It was that night that he had unwittingly begun planning his future around you. He thought he had all the time in the world to explore these newfound feelings, wanted to let them simmer and develop with the beautiful slow burn courting that you deserved. He had wanted to take his time to do things right, show you just how much he cherished you, how much you held his devotion in the palm of your hand.

Cassian knew himself, and knew he fell hard and fast, and he never wanted to risk ruining things with you until he was absolutely certain you felt the same. But, if Cassian could turn back time, he’d kick his own ass and tell himself to just fucking tell you.

He never stood a chance, though. Not when you looked at Azriel like he had hand placed every star in the sky for you.

Initially, Cassian had been so blinded by his own infatuation with you that he failed to see the burgeoning love between you and Azriel. What he once thought was camaraderie between you blossomed into something much, much more. And it wasn’t until you had confessed to Cassian during one of your nightly training sessions that you felt crazy for falling for the Shadowsinger did Cassian finally piece everything together.

The lingering gazes, the pink cheeks, the brushing of hands beneath the table when you thought no one was looking.

It was all right in front of his face and he felt humiliatingly moronic for not noticing it sooner. His best friend — brother — and the love of his life, falling together like two pieces of a puzzle. He had felt his heart shatter that night, unable to respond to your heartfelt confession. You had taken it as confirmation that he thought you were crazy, that Azriel could never feel the same way that you did, and panicked. Cassian had been quick to assuage your fears, telling you that Azriel would be the insane one if he didn’t feel the same way, that you were more than Azriel could have ever dreamed of having in his lifetime.

Looking back on it now, he supposed he was confessing his own love to you. In a twisted, cruel sort of way, hoping that you’d see he was speaking of his own feelings rather than Azriel’s, that he was so desperately wanting to give himself to you the way you were eager to give yourself to his brother.

Part of him regretted placating you, and he wondered what might have been different if he had lied and said Azriel didn’t feel the same way. But he knew that would hurt you, and though he could be selfish, he loved you too much to ever be the source of your anguish.

Cassian would rather tear himself to shreds than make you cry.

And so he stood on the sidelines for the first time since becoming General of the Night Court and watched you fall hopelessly in love with Azriel.

It pained him to admit it, but the love you and Azriel shared was one for the legends. More nights than not, Cassian had willingly tormented himself, asking Azriel of the state of your relationship. Cassian had listened with rapt attention — desperate to gain any morsel of you that he could — as Azriel waxed poetic about how perfect and lovely you were. That he would quite literally go to war for the way you smiled at him, a sentiment that Cassian so deeply empathized with that he wanted to rip his hair out. Azriel loved you so completely, though — maybe even in ways that Cassian himself had never done — and he’d do anything to preserve your happiness.

Everyone else saw it, too. Said it was only a matter of time before the mating bond snapped into place. And when it did, it would be a nail in Cassian’s coffin, cementing his feelings beneath an ironclad lockbox six feet under.

But it hadn’t snapped yet, and Cassian could continue living in his self-indulgent fantasy of you for a little bit longer. Over the years, his love ebbed and flowed, sometimes almost disappearing before rearing its head in full force. But for the most part, he kept it under lock and key, watching with an aching heart as you and Azriel fell deeper in love with each passing moment.

Even now as he looked on at you and Azriel, cozied up on the balcony watching the array of stars pass during Starfall, Cassian didn’t let so much as an eye twitch give way to his true feelings. You and Azriel truly were a sight to behold; two of the most beautiful fae in the Night Court — probably all of Prythian — illuminated by the light of the stars. The thought made Cassian sigh, unable to tear his gaze away from you so beautiful, looking at another male with so much adoration twinkling in your eyes. He looked and looked even though it was shredding every last bit of dignity he had.

You said something that made Azriel toss his head back in laughter, your own tinkling chuckle winding with his in a beautiful symphony that curled around Cassian’s ears mockingly. He watched as Azriel placed a firm kiss to your forehead, muttering something against your skin that made you blush. He was sure it was something complimentary (and maybe even a bit lewd), what with how you looked tonight. And Cassian didn’t blame his brother one bit for wanting to let you know just how captivating you looked. Dress shimmering under the starlight, you were radiant, a perfect imitation of the stars streaking across the blackened sky.

Cassian’s hazel gaze slid to the curve of your back where he found Azriel’s ringed fingers teasingly playing with the zipper there, his lips pressed to the crown of your hair, no doubt whispering the fantasies and plans he had for the two of you once the night ended. Cassian forced his thoughts away from the image of you bare and wanting on the plush sheets of your bed, reaching up to skate your fingers across the tattoos on Azriel’s chest.

It was a sight he’d move Heaven and Earth to see, even if it were through his brother’s eyes. Even if he knew you’d never look at him the way he so desperately wished you could.

The ache of pining lingered deep in Cassian’s chest and he snapped himself out of his longing. He was being ridiculous, he thought. You and Azriel had been together for years — it must’ve been at least a decade by now. It was about time that Cassian had started the painful ascent from his fall for you all those decades ago.

Cassian knocked the rest of his drink back, and resolved to enjoy Starfall with you and the rest of his family despite the complicated stir of emotions that had plagued him for decades. But before he could turn and find Mor or Amren or Rhys, you were approaching him, two empty champagne glasses balanced between your fingers.

You smiled at him and he felt his chest tighten at the exhilarating urge to feel it against his own lips, “Enjoying Starfall, Cass?”

“Not as much as you, clearly,” he said with a wink, gesturing to the glasses in your hand. “That’s gotta be…what? Your sixth glass tonight?”

Teasing you like he always had came easy. No matter how he felt about you, you were still his dear friend, something he valued above almost everything else; he could put his love for you aside for right now.

You rolled your eyes and swatted at him playfully, “Seventh, actually. And I’m here to collect my eighth.”

You weren’t as drunk as Cassian thought you were, but you were pleasantly lightheaded, feeling floaty as you maneuvered around the room. A heady feeling of light relaxation settled in your bones. But maybe you were drunker than you thought, as one staggering, misplaced step had you stumbling over the hem of your dress.

Before you could fall and knock the entire table of faerie wine over, Cassian caught your elbow and steadied you. You turned to him, sheepishly offering him thanks and making a joke about your state of intoxication and lack of coordination.

Cassian didn’t hear any of what you said, though. Only felt the electrifying pulse of your skin beneath his fingers and a persistent tug beneath his ribcage. It was like something whipped into place, and he heard those golden bells again, taunting him as the breath whooshed out of his lungs like he’d been punched in the gut with an iron fist.

Mate, the bells sung to him.

Cassian thought he would pass out, and by the look of concern that swiftly marred your beautiful countenance, he knew he looked the part.

“Cassian? Are you alright?”

He let go of your elbow so swiftly that if you didn’t know any better you would’ve thought you burnt him. He shook his head, schooling his features back into his usual playful demeanor with practiced ease, “I think maybe I’ll take this off your hands before you fall into the Sidra next.”

The Mother — cruel, cruel thing — knew he needed it.

He plucked the faerie wine from your hands and chugged as Azriel approached. The cocktail of emotions he swallowed burned their way down his throat much more painfully than the alcohol, and his head spun in such a way that not even the hard liquor at Rita’s could emulate.

The shadowsinger wrapped a steadying arm around your waist and Cassian did his best to tame the roiling possession that threatened to cleave his ribs apart.

Truthfully, Cassian didn’t hear any of the conversation that he partook in with you and his brother; he could only hear the thundering of his pulse in his ears as he grappled with his revelation and the bittersweet feelings that came with it.

Wasn’t this what he’d been wanting this whole time? He should be happy, but he wasn’t.

His thoughts drifted to the past, hearing Azriel talking about you like you were an angel sent to deliver him from the clutches of earthly suffering. He remembered snippets, glimpsing into memories of his brother looking at you with a softness Cassian didn’t think he was capable of, recollections of him worshiping you in small, meaningful ways. It was the way Azriel was looking at you now, and Cassian felt a wicked, torturous twist in his gut.

In this moment more than any other, Cassian was cruelly reminded that while he loved you from afar for decades, Azriel had cultivated a life with you filled with passion and love and plans for the future.

The sound of your yawn broke Cassian out of his mental turmoil, demanding his attention once more. He couldn’t help the smile that curved his lips at the cute way your nose scrunched when you yawned, sleepy tears collecting at the edges of your eyes. When he looked at you now, the noises echoing off the walls of the House were muted, muffled as his ears attuned to you and you alone.

You leaned into Azriel tiredly — something Cassian did his best to ignore — and fixed your gaze upon him.

“You should go and enjoy Starfall, Cass. You’ve been inside for the past hour,” you said, hints of fond amusement in your voice. “I heard that Feyre’s brought a friend that’s been dying to meet you.”

He knew you meant well, knew that you played matchmaker only because you wanted him to be happy and find the love that you knew existed. But your words and the conspiratorial wink you tossed his way, sent his heart into a painful spiral. Your encouragement that he put himself out there to find someone to love was a cruel reminder that you did not feel for him the way he felt for you.

“Maybe I’ll go find her, then,” Cassian responded, doing his best to maintain the nonchalant bantering tone everyone expected of him, despite knowing that you’d be going to bed with another male. His mate, happy in someone else’s — his brother’s — embrace.

It was only when Azriel led you away with a laugh and a quick goodnight in his direction did Cassian allow himself to loose the breath he was holding.

Mate, that persistent voice in his head whispered, which he pointedly ignored as he sauntered off to find Feyre, desperate to rid himself of the gnawing guilt and sick heartbreak that clawed at his chest.

Holy Mother above… the Cauldron was cruel and he was so fucked.

Remeber You As You Were /visual story/

Sam watched Cass and AJ bolt into the water, daring who could reach the deep end faster—a promise of ice cream on the other's short allowance.

It was their annual family outing; every June they'd drive to the beach and stay till late in the afternoon.

"What?" Sam asked. Sarah had been staring at him, at his arms and back, from her peripheral.

"Nothing." She said.

"Nah, c'mon tell me. Admiral Finny."

Sarah elbowed him. "Don't call me that," She laughed. Then she was quiet. "You didn't always have so many scars, y'know."

Sam looked at himself, swim trunks exposing the pink rivers of scars over his shoulders, back and arms.

"When we were kids, the most you had was that cut from when you fell off the tree house," She swiped his left cheek. "Mamma was so mad at you...but you swore it was like flying. Like an idiot, I might add."

"Hey for the first twenty seconds before I hit the ground it did."

They smiled, good memories with their parents were fewer and fewer as they got older.

"Now it's like it didn't matter. You have too many to count, and I wasn't there for any of 'em," She said. "Feels like I don't know you, sometimes. You're so different from when we were kids. I just can't wrap my head around it."

Sarah's voice was low, distant, and Sam pulled her into his side.

"It's still me," He said. "The same older brother who wouldn't let you date any of his friends." He joked.

Sarah giggled. "Asshole...just wish I knew you. What you went through, all of it. I used to know all of it."

The silence crowded them in, waves eating at the shore and kids yelling dulling to a hum.

"Y'know I don't know you much either," Sam said. "Those five years after the blip...you used to be seven years younger than me...still figuring out your thirties." He stopped, letting the words sink into him.

"But you're still my little sister." He continued, kissing her hairline. "Maybe we can figure out who we are now together."

Sarah smiled, leaning her head on his shoulder. "Yeah. Maybe sounds good."

maybe I'm basic but I feel like Duke would have a really impressive singing voice

like if jason's got a rough and swooping bass, tim's got soft high baritone and dick's got a theater-approved tenor?

duke's got just the right range to sing softly to himself on the balcony waiting for his siblings to come home from patrol, and the perfect confidence to belt in the car or the shower

he joined one act and the school musicals every year and he got a leading part in Mamma Mia! so when his whole foster family shows up to watch him perform he nearly starts crying

and then he's on stage and singing, inside of the role with the ensemble at his back

dick is openly crying, Jay and Bruce have tears in their eyes, Dami's lost in the music, Cass is enraptured, Steph's excitedly pointing out every run Duke does, Tim, for once in his life, doesn't even have to pretend to be awake as Duke takes the stage by storm

and once they know he can sing he doesn't hold back. when he's helping Alfred with breakfast, he sings to pass the time while the bacon cooks. when Tim's awake on the couch late at night, he hums in the chair next to him until he nods off. Damian plays violin in the second living room and occasionally Duke will pass by and sing the lyrics to the classical piece he transposed.

and Jason and Duke at karaoke night? unmatched.

Batfam Theatre Kids Au

Alfred- The music director. He’s kind but also gets things done. Bings cookies for the cast, backstage crew, and pit musicians during tech week. Also subs in for Bruce when needed.

Bruce- The director who was on Broadway/in a major show. He always brings up how “these things wouldn’t fly” when he was acting. Seems like he’s almost always annoyed but loves his theatre kids nonetheless. Even when they’re fucking around on the catwalks---”DICK GRAYSON GET BACK ON THE CATWALKS I’M NOT GOING TO JAIL BECAUSE YOU FALL--JASON NO DON’T JOIN HIM”

Dick- *The* musical theatre kid. He has been in Mamma Mia more times than probably healthy. Almost always gets the male lead. Notable roles include Corny Colins, Emmett Forrest,

Jason- The superstitious theatre kid. If you say “macbeth” in front of him...well you know where your tires went...

Tim- The godly lighting person. He’s overworked and tired of the outlandish requests but if you get him coffee, you’ll get on his good side.

Steph- Passionate ensemble member. She almost never gets leads but she’s satisfied with just adding ambiance.

Damian- Backstage. He’s a fantastic set designer and has acting potential though he prefers to be behind the curtain rather than in front of it.

Cass- Choreographer. She’s not big on singing but dancing? She comes up with the most beautiful choreography.

Duke- Newbie theatre kid who’s just trying to understand things. Has lead potential but also tech potential. The actors and backstage both love him. Always makes sure the prop tables are organized.

Barbara- Holy stage manager. She manages literally everything. The show would not happen without her. Does not get as much credit as she deserves but the cast and crew love her (and are slightly scared of her).

- È solo un incubo?... - È come se fosse un incubo, Cass. - Quello che è capitato a Bridget e alla mamma succederà anche a noi?... - No, io non lo permetterò. Te lo prometto! - Un giorno sarai una brava mamma, zia Beth. - Davvero? - Sì. Sai mentire ai bambini. (Dialogo dal film La Casa. Il risveglio del male).

Random question. What do you think about next gen ACOTAR? Like with gywnriel, elucien, nessian, and feysand kids?? Oooo also also! I just read the gwynriel kids post and I loved it! I also read the fine print and catrin and nyx?? 👀👀. Oh, also who do you think the gwynriel twins would end up with? 🤔🤔

Hello Thank you, and so sorry I am only answering it now!

Ooo, the next ACOTAR gen (except Gwynriel kids because I already wrote about them here):

Feysand: I see them having another child, a girl (and name her after Rhys’s sister🥺). Everyone’s first thought when they see her next to Nyx is that they’re twins. That’s how similar they are. I see her as inheriting most of Rhys’s powers, and her being more powerful than Nyx. Loves painting and flying with her family. Mischievous, but nobody can stay mad at her because of how cute she is. Oh and 🗣daddy’s princess🗣. Seriously, Rhysand loves her so much, and he'd would bring the moon over for her if she ever asked.

Nessian: daughters. When I think about Nessian's children, I can only envision them having daughters, perhaps three or four. They’re as sassy as their mother. Strong, independent, love reading and training with their parents (secretly enjoy sparing with Cassian more thought because they’re all 🗣daddy’s princesses🗣); once they grow up, they join the Valkyrie’s union, led by their mother. Also, prank Cassian a lot, but he can never get mad at them (you already know why). Nyx sometimes takes part in pranking uncle Cass.

Elucien: I imagine them having a son. A soft spoken, sweet boy with light brown eyes and beautiful red hair. A bit shy. Has a way with his words. That doesn’t mean he’s not sassy; how can he not, when his parents are Lucien and Elain? But nonetheless a cutie pie. Has a soft spot for gardening with Elain; grows out flowers that remind him of her. A huge mamma boy! Reads a lot with Lucien, and is interested in everything human related.

As for relationships, I see one of the twins ending up with one of Nessian’s daughters (just imagine Cass and how he’d act 🤣). And for the other twin, only if Gwyn is NOT related to the Vanserras in any way!!!! : I’d love seeing him and Elucien’s son together; I think it’d be a soft love story I’d live for (again, only if Gwyn has no blood ties to any of the Vanserras).

present !!

reagan came to elias after being freed from gothel’s grasp. her parents, while reluctant to let their daughter go again, felt she needed to spread her wings and the university offered an excellent art program their daughter would thrive with.

reagan wasn’t ready to be a princess nor was she ready to take on the role of a ruler. she didn’t know the first thing about being a royal and feared she’d fail her parents and kingdom. coming to elias she planned to figure out who she was and what she wanted.

a year ago while exploring with cass the two discovered black rocks outside of elias. reagan touched them causing her hair to grow back after it was cut the day she fled from her tower. her powers were back but reagan felt that the rocks were connected to her in someway.

also a year ago she met beckham teague and fell head over heels for him. he was the first boy, besides eugene, she had met outside of the tower. no one could blame her for falling for his charm. their fooling around ended up leading reagan to become pregnant and on march 30th, 2022 the pair welcomed their son benjamin baer teague.

currently, reagan is navigating life as a single mother. her dreams have shifted into something entirely new. while she still wants adventure and to see the world she was hidden from all these years right now she’s taking care of her new dream: ben.

past !!

tw: reagan’s past mentions kidnapping.

princess reagan cymbeline was born to king frederic and queen arianna of the kingdom of corona. the night of her birth her mother fell deathly ill. her father had heard tales of the sundrop, a magical flower with the capability of healing. desperate to save his wife and unborn daughter the warning of taking the sundrop would reap unimaginable consequences fell on deaf ears.

the sundrop worked and soon the king and queen of corona welcomed their daughter. the joy they felt was short lived. late that night reagan was kidnapped by a mysterious woman. that woman turned out to be gothel. for years she had been using the sundrop to keep her youth. she thought snipping a piece of the baby’s hair would be able to keep her young but once her hair was snipped the sundrops powers faded. desperate for her eternal youth gothel stole reagan.

she hid the princess away in a tower and posed as her mother. gothel warned reagan that the outside world was a dangerous place. people would use her for her powers so it was best that

for years reagan lived the same routine. there was one day a year she looked forward to the most and that was her birthday. every year lanterns would be released into the sky. she couldn’t help but think they were for her. they were in fact for her because every year on her birthday her parents lifted lanterns in the sky hoping one day their daughter would come home.

when her eighteenth birthday rolled around reagan had grown restless. she dreamed of seeing the lanterns that night. it’s all she wanted. gothel however was not having it and forbid reagan from leaving her tower. ever. to ‘make up’ for it gothel went to travel to get the special paint that reagan loved, leaving the princess alone.

she expected to be in her tower once again but fate had other plans. a thief by the name of flynn rider snuck into her tower to lose the royal guards. reagan knocked the poor guy out with a frying pan and saw that he had a crown with him. reagan agreed to let flynn go and give him his crown back if he agreed to take her to see the lanterns.

an unlikely adventure came about between the two. reagan saw the outside world for the first time, experienced so much and also found a friend.

on their journey she heard tales of a lost princess. she was the reason the lanterns were set off every year and reagan slowly began to put the pieces together.

she finally saw the lanterns thanks to flynn but gothel was not far behind them and dragged reagan back to her tower. she planned on leaving again with the princess and hiding her away for good. to make sure reagan would follow flynn had been stabbed and threatened to be killed if reagan didn’t cooperate. reagan promised she would go with gothel if she was allowed to heal flynn. before she could recite the healing incantation flynn cut her long locks with the very dagger he had been stabbed with. on their journey she had told flynn that if her hair is cut it loses its powers. her powers were gone now with no way to save flynn.

before things could escalate the royal guards arrived. it turns out flynn had tipped them off before heading to the tower. gothel was taken into custody, flynn the hospital and reagan was finally returned home to her parents.

at only eighteen, the king and queen understood that there was so much their daughter had not experienced. while they were reluctant to let her go they had her enroll into walt university where they knew she would be safe and protected ( with the help of cassandra ) and be able to spread her wings. she would return home to them when the time was right and become the queen they knew she was destined to be.

future !!

in the future reagan will discover the truth about the sundrop and moonstone. angst and tears are in my future. on that adventure she’ll learn more about who she is as a person and step into her greatness. while she’s always wondered if she was truly meant to be queen the time that she took was exactly what she needed to rise to the occasion and become queen of corona. her golden locks as well as her powers will fade and be transferred to her children.
