Not at first, no! I'm not even sure she awakens on the Source with any accessories to speak of—the ring she gets from Bremondt is probably the only jewelry she wears for a little while, canon be darned. But over time, as she acquires more, I think she would come to wear a variety of rings and bracelets (when her gear warrants wearing wrist adornments), so she always has something to fidget with. Bit of a callback to her past life, when she would have worn lots of trinkets found and gifted to her by members of the crew of her ship.
As for stories, Aeryn does eventually come to possess a few more notable accessories. Late StB and ShB spoilers below, along with a hint of a HW spoiler!
After The Vault, Aeryn takes to wearing a certain house crest around her neck. It's her little way of taking that person with her on all her adventures, and she does so for some time. One day, she just... forgets to put it on. She very nearly has an anxiety attack over it, sparked by the notion that she has somehow forgotten that person by neglecting a piece of jewelry. But Alphinaud unwittingly circumvents her panic by noting that he approves of the change—and he thinks the very person she wore the accessory for would agree.
While practicing alchemy, she learns how to preserve certain types of plants as charms or for future use in potions. She practices on wildflowers she finds on the Limsan hills and throughout the Shroud. At some point, she picks a tiny yellow blossom and preserves it in a small bead she wears around her neck—and later realizes, after she's seen his face for the first time, that it reminds her of Urianger's eyes. She leaves it in the infirmary with the Scions when she departs to explore the findings below the Crystal Tower, then starts wearing it again upon her return, until some point in Endwalker, when she gives it to Urianger.
Even though I have no way of showing it in-game, Aeryn acquires a new bracelet in ShB—she fidgets with Urianger's rings and bangles so much that one day he takes one of them and slides it around her wrist. It doesn't fit properly, of course, but I imagine she either has it sized or wears it as a cuff around her upper arm.
In my silly little maybe-headcanon about elezen courtship braids, Aeryn eventually comes to wear a little bead forged of aether that Urianger braids into her hair. Yes, it's sappy as blazes... but I love it. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)

Does your wol(oc) wear any jewelry? Does any of it have a story?

I realize it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm honestly enjoying watching this place evolve and grow and get so excited when I happen to be online for one of the new phases (like today).

W E A V E R: Her main canon crafting class. Aeryn doesn't necessarily excel in it, but she is committed, and she loves the satisfaction of completing something that will bring someone else comfort or joy. She does occasionally sew or mend her own clothing, but I do focus more on the weaving element of this for her (she both knits and crochets).
A L C H E M I S T: Stupid Severian and his stupid quests that I love and that make me cry every time. Aeryn's inability to use magic means she relies heavily on potions for energy, healing, and other buffs, and so she seeks a means of crafting them herself. She takes to it fairly well and doesn't struggle to keep recipes in her head with alchemy the way she does with cooking.
G O L D S M I T H ?: I go back and forth on this one. I think Aeryn would express an interest in embellishing some of her weaving, and Redolent Rose might point her Serendipity's direction, where she could learn to weave bracelets and chokers. She'd be good at it, but she'd be more of a hobbyist and would never fully dip her fingers into metal- or gem-crafting.
Honorable Mention
B O T A N I S T: Starting in Gridania, Aeryn does befriend Fufucha and help the botanists' guild by scouting for supplies while out on her adventures. She is useless at growing things on her own except a select few extremely resilient specimen of plants, but she's quite good at finding things when needed.
What gathering and/or crafting jobs does your WoL excel in?

I never buy stuff at full price from the online store, but considering she is a fictional incarnation inspired by my old nickname ("Bubbles"), this emote was basically mandatory for her (and for me).
It's perfect, and I'm obsessed. 🫧⋆。 °✩

Glamtober | Day 31: Spooky or Supernatural
...alksdjflajksdf. (° - º ς)
Anyway, so I have the hots for a completely OOC AU evil version of my character, now. Aeryn as Ascian, maybe? (♡⌄♡) This might officially be my favorite set.

It's uncommon, especially in the actual in-game years of their whatevership, for Aeryn and Urianger to rest together in a bed at all. Though they do eventually grow much more comfortable with physical nearness, they're still both such natural night owls that they often fall asleep in common spaces: while reading together on a couch, for example, or studying/crafting (respectively) side by side. More often than not, it's just one of them dozing off close by while the other lingers quietly to avoid disturbing their much-needed rest.
That said, I do think as they get older, it might become more common for them to sleep like normal people. Aeryn might find Urianger properly asleep in bed and decide to curl up beside him; or vice versa, Urianger might carry a dozing Aeryn to rest and then choose to sit beside her until he inevitably falls asleep himself.
Anyway, that all said, in the less common circumstances where they actually share a bed: by nature of size alone, Urianger takes up more space—even moreso because Aeryn's sleep-instinct is to curl up and/or nestle into her place of rest.
Extra lore: I like to imagine Urianger's typically a still, sound sleeper who doesn't move much over the course of his rest. Aeryn generally doesn't move once asleep, but she often experiences interrupted sleep: sometimes because of the dreams she can never remember; and sometimes because her natural instincts alert her to some minor change in her vicinity that might portend danger. So she would wake and reposition frequently. Nevertheless, it is Very Extremely Canon that she sleeps more soundly, with fewer disturbances, when she's near Urianger. If she falls asleep knowing he's nearby, she's less likely to wake up before the end of her rest.
Among your WoLship who takes more space on the bed?

Glamtober | Day 28: Sun or Moon
There is so much sun symbolism associated with the WoL, which does of course fit for Aeryn, actual fusion of remnant soul shard and dying star. But given the choice, she would step out of her appointed role of shining star and instead retreat, quietly orbiting those she treasures and reflecting light back to them.

Glamtober | Day 11: Holiday
...I just wanted to show off her Halloween All Saints' Wake glam for this year again.
(Please ignore full size. I had to hyper-sharpen this. Forever weeping.)

Glamtober | Day 24: Dress to Impress
Aeryn doesn't dress to impress—nor does she dress formally at all if she can help it! It's why Tataru takes it upon herself to see that the Warrior of Light is properly attired for all occasions. But left to her own devices, she would choose something like this: light, soft material; plain and easy to mend; flats she can run in if needed; and most definitely a pair of short slacks underneath.
If this looks familiar, it's because I made a very similar glam for a bonding ceremony I was invited to, and it's still just perfect for her.

Aaaaahhhhhhhh I'm in a state of perpetual awe over how bright and magical this is!!!! Still crying (positive), days later.
Another commission I treated myself to back around my birthday! I've not been quiet about my obsession with the Celestial Intersection spell and have long had an image in my head of Aeryn (in her astro AU) and Urianger reflexively casting it on each other in the midst of battle.
@vicious-mongrel captured this so, so perfectly, and I'm tremendously grateful!!!! Please go check out all their lovely work and put heaps of hearts on them! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Illustration commission for @caffeinated-moogle ✨✨

I just wanted the pretty sky behind her, but this is accidentally giving recruitment poster vibes.
