The Human Sisters by noyeahforsure
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
12 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
An alternate universe of sorts where Nesta and Feyre don’t actually hate each other, they just fight sometimes. Like real sisters. Nesta goes to Velaris while she is still a human to spend time with Feyre at Rhys’s request. Their relationship slowly improves, while Nesta explores her sister’s new world.
What is the same as canon: the world, the characters (not necessarily how they act, just the basics), the plot up until the moment that Feyre asks her sisters for help with the queens
What is different from canon: everyone has at least a modicum of emotional intelligence, Clare Beddor was (is??) Nesta’s best friend, Elain is into Mor (because why not), Illyria is not a terrible place, Nesta and Rhys form an unlikely but ultimately adorable friendship

Summary
Elyssia is born among the cruelty of the Illyrian Mountains and, after finding solace at the hands of an otherworldly creature, she dedicates her life to give her fellow females and their wings the safety she was blessed with - only to have it all shattered by the well-meaning but, in her eyes, clueless aid of the Night Court’s general and the Inner Circle he’s a part of.
Life, and the clusterfuck of drama Cassian brings with him, would’ve been easier to navigate if the mate bond hadn’t snapped the second they crossed eyes…. or if he didn’t have a lover at home he refuses to part with.
Now Elyssia has been thrown into the thick of heartache and unavoidable longing while trying to remain faithful to her self-imposed duties and keeping her distance from the found-family of the mate that doesn’t want her.
Add in a mix of High Lords drama with their unresolved issues, weird demonic creatures breaking havoc all over Prythian, and seductive High Fae that have no issue expressing interest in what Cassian so carelessly dismissed, and you have the making of the perfect recipe for absolute disaster.

The Shadows of the Lost by InkognitoDeki

Summary
Throughout his life, Azriel couldn’t remember a single day when he wasn’t someone’s property. He never had a choice, never was asked what he wanted. And even if someone had asked, he wouldn’t have known what to say.
The amber eyes that now watched him appraisingly, as if they could see through his carefully crafted mask, made him all the more nervous. As if they could see past the Illyrian leather, beyond the cold facade, and deep into the shadows of his trauma... only to find nothing.
Nothing that could ever be worthy of catching the attention of someone like Eris Vanserra.This story is a deep, intricate character study that delves into the life of Azriel - from his traumatic childhood to the years that shape him into the shadow he has become. It is also the tale of a spark of hope in the form of a redhead who isn't afraid of his darkness.

Summary
Nesta has finally agreed to train with Cassian, and as she grows stronger, so does the tension between the two of them. But when she watches Cassian and Azriel spar in the training ring, a fantasy takes hold, one that she never expects to play out.
Cassian and Azriel both see the way her body reacts to the sight of the two Illyrians, and while it's not the first time a female has lusted after them both, Nesta may be their undoing.
***
Enjoy my take on Nesta's fantasy, one where she doesn't have to choose, and where everyone gets their happy ever after!
I also try to be as true to the original work and canon events, but I've rearranged some minor events and information to make more sense within the story.
Happy Reading!

Summary
Months and months have passed since Nesta Archeron cut the King of Hybern's head off.
In that time, the River House has been built, Velaris is once again vibrant, and everyone is enjoying the happiness that was hard earned, and at great cost. Well, mostly everyone.
Nesta, who spirals further and further into her own grief with every passing day, has instead burrowed into her tiny apartment in the city, intent on drinking her sorrows away.
But when she goes missing, a concerned neighbor shatters the relative contentment the Inner Circle had been enjoying. Now, faced with the very real possibility that she is once again in the clutches of the enemy, they must stop at nothing to get her back.
For Cassian, that means tearing the world apart, until he has the chance to make sure his mate comes home safe.
But Nesta is no damsel. She was taken by Hybern once, they will not succeed twice. Now is the time for vengeance, and she will not stop until every last one of her enemies is vanquished.
A post-ACOWAR revenge plot AU, in which Hybern kidnaps Nesta as revenge for the death of the King.

Summary
Sacrificed to a brutal species of lesser Fae when she came of childbearing age, Scarlett has endured nearly a decade of darkness, her only source of comfort - the strong bronzed hands and hazel eyes she sees in her sleep.
Plagued by the same reoccurring dream of a young mortal woman shrouded in blackness, Cassian takes matters into his own hands to find her.
Offered sanctuary in Velaris, she is given a place within the Inner Circle in hopes of proving that a peaceful coexistence between Fae and Mortals is possible...
But dangerous ideologies linger in Prythian, seeking to destroy the delicate peace that was hard-won. For Cassian, the mating bond snapped into place the moment they collided. For Scarlett, the darkness of her prison lingers in her dreams, and only Cassian seems to be able to pull her from the depths. After half a millennium, Cassian has just found his mate. And he will stop at nothing to keep her safe.

Mates of Circumstance by ScorpioSunset88
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas

Summary
The story focuses on a Princess of Hybern; the events in ACOTAR (first book) occur but after that it diverges. Relevant character information: Rhysand and Feyre are High Lord and Lady of Night Court. Tamlin never went to the King of Hybern and thusly his Court remains intact, Elain and Nesta are still human and do not have much impact on this storyline, other characters exist but are not as relevant.
Mating bond between Princess, Azriel, and Cassian (but not between the bat boys).
Pulled elements from LOTR into the story because I adore Middle Earth as well.This is my first shared fan-fic and I realize there are probably errors that I just did not catch so I do apologize for any frustration when you read. I hope that you enjoy :)

Summary
Any semblance of calm Cassian was gripping onto, shattered, “You mean to tell me that I unknowingly took my High Lady into enemy territory? That I allowed my High Lady to sacrifice herself to save my life and the lives of my family? That my High Lady is now on the other side of the realm, risking her life as a spy when one of us,” A pained gesture to Azriel and Mor, “should be protecting her?”
Or: Cassian wakes 2 weeks after Hybern and has to come to terms with what happened. Azriel helps him to regain his strength and prepare for the war ahead. Cassian realizes even his long life may be too short to not settle down.
This fic takes place after the events of ACOMAF. 3rd person objective Cassian POV for beginning of ACOWAR.

As of now, just a collection of short stories about the most powerful pack in the Night Court. Might be somewhat Azriel-centric since I’m a sucker for the brooding type.

Summary
While Azriel was happy, he rarely ever participated in so-called “pack bonding moments”. The relationship he has with his brothers was built upon collective hardships. His ultimate language being violence, he was not used to the softness. Nevertheless, a chain of deliberate actions will change that forever.

Summary
“Because,” she said with firm resolve, “It’s better to stay behind it, and downwind.”
Something in the way she said it made the hairs on Cassian’s neck prickle, and the muscles of his shoulders bunched as his wings tightened against his back. Standing in the trail of whatever beast she was following, he could see the ghosts of the child she’d once been in these forests.
