♕ Announcing Nesta Archeron Appreciation Week 2023 ♕

Join us in celebrating Nesta Archeron from April 23 through April 29, 2023!

Welcome back to Nesta Week 2023! We decided to move the event up sooner in the year in honor of Nesta being born sometime in the spring, so we hope you're ready to celebrate our queen a little sooner than expected! Feel free to participate in any way you can, from headcanons, fanart, moodboards, fics, drabbles…. no matter how big or small, anything celebrating Nesta is welcome!

Please tag @nestaarcheronweek and use the tag #NestaWeek2023 so we can see all your lovely posts!

This year’s prompts are as follows:

Day One: Sister ♕ Nesta has a unique bond with her sisters, whether that's with Feyre and Elain or Emerie and Gwyn. How do you see her interacting with them?

Day Two: Sharp ♕ Nesta's wit — and her love of pointy objects — has been well-documented across the series. What's your take on how this word applies to her?

Day Three: Valkyrie ♕ Nesta trained hard to earn the title of Valkyie in A Court of Silver Flames. How do you see her embodying the title of Valkyrie?

Day Four: Lover ♕ Nesta has had many opportunities for love across Prythain — who do you ship her with? Cassian? Emerie? Eris? Gwyn? Azriel? Cresseida? Any and all ships are welcome!

Day Five: Birthday Girl ♕ While Nesta doesn't have a specified birthday in canon, that doesn't mean we can't celebrate our favorite character turning a year older! How do you think Nesta and the people who love her would celebrate her special day?

Day Six: Lady Death ♕ After surviving the Cauldron, Nesta became one of the most powerful characters in Prythian. What do you think Lady Death's magic looks like?

Day Seven: Free Day ♕ Any topic of your choosing!

A huge shoutout to @dustjacketmusings, @c-e-d-dreamer, @talkfantasytome, @isterofimias, and many others for helping to plan this event!

Please contact @moodymelanist with any questions about the event. We can't wait to see what you all create!

When you think you can't go on, when you lack the strength to even move, and when everything seems hopeless... Sora. Find your Flame. Let it burn.

♕ - As it stands, for all great heights that he reaches, the stark awareness that something insidiously greater waits with wicked tooth and claws turns out to be fearfully true. Currently doused in a pool of his own blood, his beloved blade tucked into a grip that refuses to relent, the grim reality of his current situation grows all too blinding with abyssal darkness. Even now the drenched appetite of a dangerous hunger flares threatening upon his senses, the agents born from the great amalgamation were here to collect.

The hero who broke all boundaries.

Who believed no sacred law to be too great of a price for his beloved friends.

Someone who stepped to the scales of an unwilling planewalker.

'This... Can't be the end.. I... Promised...' No. Amidst this grueling pain, of the searing burns and cuts across his frame, what dawns within his memory is the crystalline clear oath that he bravely declared upon the sunkissed shores of Destiny Island. That resolution has served as a fiery and courage armor, a blinding light that made him willingly prepared to endure the scale of loneliness that oblivion itself would draw as his only companion.

..And even now? It hasn't exactly turned out the way he thought it would. As a boundless number of thorn knitted Heartless approached, as the hollow, ghastly sheen of Nobodies also prepared to descend, claw, spear and magic towards him, a voice manages to succeed in breaking through the violent chaos determined to make him ill focus. The endless sensation of falling is suddenly stunned, left in a state of perpetually frozen time as a voice manages to bring kindle to that dwindling flame that hangs upon a dangerous precipice.

'W.. Who is...?'

Their offered courage is in essence, an incredibly simple message, the sort that finds itself carried in the hearts of many yet never fully believed. However, for the lonely Keybearer who remains adrift upon the primordial cosmic pool of creation itself, the fact that these words alone could manage to caress his heart with a tender message is enough to let a heart fueled by a genuine and true love find it's once veiled luster, to discover a reminder of that great strength he forged in order to brave the very wrath of Kingdom Hearts drenched in darkness itself.

An echoing, roaring heartbeat slams through his chest, reverberating beyond as it allows a knowing shiver to erupt through the hero's Heart of Hearts. With the domain of everlasting darkness, the once stasis induced realm discovers ripples as the struggling heart begins to find the strength of warmth once again.

Power, a deep, profound light manages to to reflect a glittering brilliance upon his very being. As his fingertips scratched at the vantablack surrounding him, the Kingdom Key fixed within his grip begins to hum with life, scraping against the ground as Sora's body fights through the incomprehensible weight of potential demise, of the comfort of sleep that would be too happy to steal him away from the pain of life.

Thinking about them..

And not only that, more, think about the very strength you've rightfully earned through your perilous passage of self discovery.

The very worth that so many spoke of, praised and believed in.

Against that very demon better known as your self-doubt, you triumphed amidst that dangerous whisper and the wrath of Xehanort's machinations...

You believed in yourself.

Brilliant torrents emerge from his being, igniting a massive, forceful shockwave that blows away all opposition as the frozen stint of time is shattered back to normalcy. The once blurry vision of his eyesight finds itself restored, drawn to pristine clarity as the agonizing fury of his wounds are blended back to shining health due to a blessed angel's kiss. Even now, the dual rush of his racing hearts within, body and soul were continuing to drum up the hidden force that despair nearly claimed as the greatest morsel.

Use this strength to protect yourself and others. Let it become a beacon of not only hope, but a power that can bring the best out of those who intend to fight for the world.

Recognizing this, Sora once again awakens.

A rolling sheen of cosmic power begins to engulf his figure, allowing an unnatural blow glow to encompass Oathkeeper and Oblivion, allowing their potential to shore to those once untold degrees as revealed before, the Kingdom Key happily allowing the spotlight to ignite upon newly conjured weapons. Taking his stance as the endless army of darkness draws its preparations...

Sora was no different.

"This isn't over yet!"

♕ - Years could pass. Centuries. Eons. All of it could be encompassed in the many brands of timeless void that managed to stitch itself alongside the undeniably, sharpened truths of reality he’s come to learn.

However, what could it truly do against the heart, a force that nature itself built itself around?

Questions that burgeoned upon the precipices of finality seemed to be in a constant flow wherever this bearer of the Keyblade walks. Decisions he gripped, demanded and ripped into his own writhing brand of destiny were adamant in never letting him forget. In truth, it was a weight where oblivion itself would often try to see the unprepared with a hollowed smile, so eager to watch them crumble underneath their preparedness.

Keyblade Wielders however, those born to hold hearts malleable like paradoxically tough were a different matter entirely. No amount of the ‘big picture’ changing in a flux of energy or reality holding laws would deter him from the bravery of new ventures that must be travailed. His truth rests deep beyond flesh, into the crux of the soul, humbly remaining with a firm sense of adventure that balances with the responsibilities that are proudly worn as a cape upon his back.

Tragedy may have been the end of a pivotal chapter of his tale, yet, does he look as if the only choice is to allow the rapids to consume him?

Regardless of what the future brings, that his paces end at this grand canvas of the unknown settled clear before him, the precious knowledge that many stubborn and loving faces were pushing with their best foot forward was motivation that endlessly ignites the fervor of his light. Akin to flaming iridescence does it shimmer, a strength that bats adamantly to twisted whispers of the void. “Looks like I can’t always keep counting on them being my alarm clock.. Signed up for that myself this time around, heheh.”

“I intended to see this through down to an ending where we can be happy. So, if I have to be a bit more selfish? I hope the worlds out there are ready for that.”

With an apt wave of the hand, light would coalesce and gleam with brazen brilliance, igniting golden and silver steel committed to his heartbound nature. A gentle, airy song sighs whimsically from the Kingdom Key as the weapon aimed towards the beyond.

This particular beacon was his heart’s oath that he intends to keep his word. That strength has only grown more formidable.

“Time to Ske-daddle. This heart of mine has its fair share of words it needs to tell a lot of people!”

Re:Connect.

[valorxdrive]

♕ - Always did it stir within his hearing sense, echoing further down into the starlit abyss of the heart, promoting tremors that bloom to wider arcs through the scope of his emotions. Similar to the piercing whine of the sun above, another song reigns as the most prominent, one that sings to multiple rhythms whether it’s through battlesong or causing any lock bordering existence and the non to yield to it’s might. Just keeping it within his trained grip allows the pleasure it feels to transmit to him through a special ‘voice.’

When has he been so ignorant of it? Why did it take peeling back those layers of that crippling self-doubt for it to truly be realized? The Kingdom Key had never picked and choose the times to speak to him, it always wanted too, a resonance that chimes wondrously with his heart and adores whenever their union could be further delved into.

Impossibility couldn’t stop the smile that gradually eases onto his lips while he stares down the mythical weapon. Despite the stilled nature it currently held, he could feel the truth, how it’s power was practically making the steel reverberate within as an onslaught of destruction stands before them. Creatures born from festering desire, stolen hope, agony personified as the corrosive shadows surrounding the wielder take form. It was a particular cross that every wielder of the Keyblade found themselves inevitably bearing. Years of unforgettable adventures had cemented it as a part of destiny he’d greedily scrape into his own grasp.

Hollow golden eyes.

The erratic movements of bestial mages and swordsmen, all etched with an insignia that harbored a recent truth of their roots. Drawn to the blight of an existence that the keyblade seemingly stands for, their palpable fear is drawn into the aggression of their actions-- hesitation itself being a farcry as spellwork and the life draining song performed by darkness laden blades all aim to devour him in a bloody spectacle.

Heartless.

An enemy all too familiar as mindless soothsayers, singers of futures etched with oblivion.

Sora could only tear forward at the sheer praise of the weapon within his hand. Despite all that it stands for, all it can perform, it hungers for those ill-fated futures. Times that make the demise of civilizations and good people, it’s resonant shimmer of a growl excitedly notes to it’s current partner how it wishes to devour them all.

To leave futures where playful days and peaceful instances of rest could be promised. It was a drive that easily brews the cauldron of potential, a greater weapon to this keybearer known as the heart.

Spill the void like ichor and let the jewels known as hearts break free from what would be their timeless prisons. A natural ferocity blends well with their playful nature, causing the kind hearted hero to embrace a destiny of becoming a different brand of oblivion. To allow for the iridescence of each swing to cleave through it’s quarry, from spells to erupt in a flurry from the spring tucked deep within. Storms of piercing thunder, flames that drive their fury into pointed focus, down to the chilling halls of a different timelessness, frozen and vulnerable. The gentle heart guiding this keyblade holds an intricate understanding that allows for a more refined strength, delicacy.

Life depends on the nature that grants sustenance throughout its own laws. Every careless tip of power would draw forth damage to rattle that balance, even if the very light of this world also takes part in this dance.

To always ensure that the minimal passes by for a bygone war that craves to seemingly pass through every world these respective parties step in. Yet, the gratitude could be felt in each thrum of the heart, in the very light that shines upon this world in the midst of this destruction.

Finding a being who cares is such a devilishly high commodity for any and all.
