December 2nd | @krem-does-stuff

Krem's art is very special, it has something that immediately catches you, and captures you. She has incredibly much talent, and shows this in each and every piece of art work. I could have picked each single one, but I decided on two that are especially beautiful. 

Azriel and Eris dancing

The first one is for Azris, and it is one of the things that truly made me fall in love with this ship. Her art perfectly conveys their relationship and is just beautiful.

Elain and Lucien in nature

Speaking of beautiful, it is the only and most perfect word to describe this Elucien art of hers (commissioned by the @the-lonelybarricade).

Stargazing (Azriel x Reader) - azrielscrown

Stargazing is an incredibly beautiful story (like all of her other stories, but this one stood out specifically). It contains mutual pining between two best friends who are so obviously in love. I had tears in my eyes reading it — incredible writing, wonderful story building and the description of the characters is just perfect. 

Building Bonds (Azriel x Reader) - cosmic-whispers

This little mini-series is absolutely incredible. I loved it sooo much and have re-read it a few times already. It absolutely adorable and so worth reading. A very well written story from an incredibly talented author.

Our Bodies Possessed By Light (azris)

This was one of the first Azris fics I have read (back then having no idea how ao3 even worked, I think I didn't even have an account) and I loved it. It was one of the fics that got me to ship and like Azris. The story is absolutely thrilling, breathtaking, makes you cry, beautiful and simply amazing. You can only love it if you love Azris. It is must read if you like this ship and every second of reading so very much worth it. Thank you for writing this wonderful story. 

Howl (azris)

I still haven't finished this story (I am only a few chapters in) , but omg does it look good. It is such an interesting take and what I have read so far looks so good, was so good, and makes me want to read on so bad It is a great story, just like everything else this author writes - I mean have you take a look at their stories?

Remember, We're Madly In Love (Feysand)

An incredibly well-written and very exciting story connecting both Hunger Games and ACOTAR. You won't be able to stop after you start reading it, always craving the next part, so save some time to read it, it is so worth it. Not only are the characters were well developed, but everything is described in so much detail and with so much love. A great story. 

I Was Never There (Bone Carver x OC)

This story is something you haven't read before and about a person from the ACOTAR universe we know very little about. That is what makes the story so incredible (apart from the phenomenal writing). It gives you an insight into something wholly different and new and is absolutely worth reading.

You Look Like Bad News (elucien)

This is most definitely the fic I have read the most times on this platform. I cannot even count the times of how often I went back to this fic just to read it again (or to devour it again). I don't know what it is about that fic, but it is just so wonderful. You all have to read it, this is an order!!

A Ripple, A Tidal Wave (feysand)

Broke my heart, made me cry, was so adorable, repaired my broken heart — it was just wonderful and absolutely amazing, written by one of the best authors and kindest human beings on this platform. This story was a masterpiece just like basically of the auhtor's other stories. 

Also LB is super sweet any kind and so very supportive with this blog - thank you sooo much🤍

An absolutely wonderful and amazing Starfall piece. I loved every part of it, it touched my heart and made my eyes water. Great piece of work that you should definitely check out. 

On My Mind In My Heart (Elucien) -darling-archeron

This Elucien story was absolutely cute and wholesome and I enjoyed every single part of it. Absolutely great work, and I am probably re-reading it for the 500th time. 

If I could Hold You For a Minute (Feysand) - darling-archeron

That was an incredible Feysand story. It was so interesting to get into Rhysand's head and see what is going on there. Absolutely amazing work, I enjoyed it sooo much, thank you for providing us with this story.

Lost In the Labyrinth of My Mind (OC x OC) - goldenmagnolias

OC High Lord of Dusk x Archeron!Sister - uhm, yes yes yes!!!! The story looked so promising from the beginning on (I have to admit, I am only in chapter three) but god, is this story good and exciting and well-written. It is something new and something I haven't really read before, so please definitely go check it out, it is so worth your time. 

A Second Chance (Eris) - acourtofladydeath

Heartwarming, heartbreaking, absolutely amazing. This is the only way to describe this absolutely amazing story, by this absolutely amazing author. Wonderful work, I've re-read it many times and loved it each single time and will do so when I read it again in the future.

Enter: Uncle Autum (Azris) - acourtofladydeath

Love, love, loooove the relationship reveal. This story was perfect and adored it soooo much. Stories including little Nyx and Azris can only be perfect, right? This was very well written as well, super lovely.

I am just quickly coming on here again to say a few things:

First of all, once again thank you for every sweet message and all the positive feedback and the shout-outs you give each other. You are all so wonderful.

Secondly, I know that I definitely forgot people (I am just a girl in my little fandom world and I also forget things). I am very sorry if I forgot someone, I never meant it in a rude way and I love you all very much. I took some time today to add a few more creators...

Thirdly, the time when I post someone's stories/art has nothing to do with how much I like a story or a writer/creator etc. The posts are in a complete random order, I sometimes tried to put certain ships together, but also not always. When you get a shout-out has nothing to do with how much I like you!! 🤍🤍🤍

[itsthedoodle]

You are doing so much right now, never apologize for anything. Your account is one of my favorites, I look forward to your posts daily. You’re doing this daily, for several creators at a time, for all ships. I don’t know who you are but like everyone, you have a life, and a job, and you juggle all of these things during a month that is usually so loaded with kindness and grace.

You are good, and kind, and a bright light and know that you are so appreciated and loved by many people 🩵
