#elucien domestic

[velidewrites]

That bed laid out in flowers in the top left corner might just be the most Elucien-coded picture I’ve ever seen.

[crmediagal]

I’m doomed to write domestic Elucien and I’m just gonna apologize in advance, I think?? 😣

Domesticity is hardly popular as far as fanfic tropes…at least, in any of the fandoms I’ve frequented in the past (and loved in spite of that). But damnit….my favorite tormented, traumatized males becoming husbands and fathers is my kryptonite. A hill I will die on. A want I’m doomed to write again and again.

I need them loved back to life by wives who take none of their bullshit but also would kill a bitch who even breathes a hint of an insult in their direction. And then the little beings who take no note of Daddy’s physical scars or suffocating guilt, just overwhelming acceptance of who he is in their innocent eyes; who allow him to dote the fuck on them so that they are fully aware that they have him in a loving, irreversible choke hold.

I need to finish the books… But I don’t think I can wait that long to start said fic. 😫

Sweet Elucien Solstice Headcanon (Mistletoe)

Lucien is familiar with the concept of mistletoe from his many travels (and Winter has a version of the tradition, too), but it's never been widely practiced in Prythian. He's reminded that it's a tradition in the human lands too when he finds Elain trying to reach the top of the door frame to put one up.

Amused, he lets her try for a minute longer before approaching and putting it up for her. She's already blushing by the time he tucks a strand of her hair behind her ear and kisses her.

this is how I imagine evenings in at home in the elucien household

[sunshinebingo]

When Elain crossed the ward between humans and shifters, she did not expect to encounter something - or someone - that would change her life.

An Elucien story about a broken-hearted girl who meets a hot and caring shifter in a forbidden forest. This fic includes some fluff, some more fluff, a little smut and an asshole ex getting what he deserves. Written as a gift for @sparklingreader for Acotar Gift Exchange 2022. Hope you enjoy!

[lucienarcheron]

I love thinking about domestic modern au elucien waking up a little extra early to make sure they spend a calm morning together. They get ready for work together, slightly distracting each other (Lucien insists on waiting until Elain is done applying her lipstick to kiss her and Elain pulls on his tie a little too seductively for him not to do something about it). One of them starts on breakfast and the other makes the coffee/tea while they talk about the plans for the day and the date they want to have later so the work day is bearable. They drive in two separate cars to work but are talking on the phone the whole time to make sure they each drive safe and get to their destination on time. They have photos of each other in their work stations and always talking about each other to their coworkers who are almost positively sick of them. It’s adorable and they’re both so very smug about how in love they are.

• "Will Azriel get his own book in the future?"

Sjm : "I can't say anything officially right now but when you get to the end of acosf you'll know who the next book is about. Azriel's journey is one I'm very excited to write about." = Elain and Azriel

• The photo she posted holding the first copy of hofas = Elain and Azriel

• Sjm subtly brought up every gwynriel theories (mate bond, mate language, shadows dancing is very special, spark in the chest is mate bond) from Azriel's bc and dismantled them in CC3 BCs.

• She even wrote Azriel stroking Nesta's hair and hold her close to show that not every interaction is romantically coded.

It's obvious what she's trying to hint at time and time again. She made it clear on multiple occasions that the focus is on Elain and Azriel. But the delusion of eluciens/gwynriels persist. Why can't people just trust SJM ? This is the author that gave us TOG.

Their HCs don't align with SJM's vision. That's pretty much it. For three years (and Eluciens even longer than that) they've existed in a self-inflicted vacuum of assumptions, disallowing any arguments and not considering anything that's on page.

They are seriously thinking that SJM, who's been writing Elriel since ACOMAF (remember, 'and I think Elain would like it too. Though I think she would cling to Azriel just for some peace and quiet' was in ACOMAF) and who's given them some very pivotal scenes, some romantic scenes, some domestic scenes, all the while pulling Elain and Lucien further and further apart, so much so that he is now living with another woman--they think that she also ended it all in a ... bonus chapter?

Part of me wants to ask 'what are you on'? but then I guess if you drink enough Gwynriel Cool Aid, that's the result.

But like, critical thinking? Were?

You're Lucky I Love You

For @areyoudreaminof <3 The prompt: Canon Elucien. Teasing. "You're lucky I love you."

—this fic contains a shameless reference to What Lies Inside, I could not help myself nor will I apologize—

Elucien ✦ Rated G ✦ 814 words ✦ on AO3

Elain breathed a sigh of relief as the door swung shut behind her. After spending the last six months on an extended visit to Vassa and Jurian to see the newly rebuilt palace and the now not-so-newborn princess, Elain was grateful to be back in her own house. They had arrived home this afternoon, but she’d gone straight into a debriefing with Balthazar and the other court’s emissaries about a potential exchange. 

It felt amazing to be home.

She’d missed the sun-warmed limestone walls, the weathered wood floors, the grove of citrus trees in the back garden, and the sprawling bougainvillea climbing around their front door. Having known them for over a decade now, Elain had gone into the trip aware that they wouldn’t get much time alone, but she hadn’t realized how much she’d come to take it for granted since she and Lucien had moved to the Day Court.

Quiet evenings with Lucien as the sun set and painted the kitchen golden—that was what Elain had missed the most. At the moment, however, her mate was nowhere to be seen.

“Lucien?” she called into the house. There was no reply. She couldn’t hear his heartbeat. That was suspicious. 

Elain decided to check the garden, though she couldn’t imagine what he would be doing out there alone.

“Lucien?” she asked into the slightly sea-salty breeze blowing inland from the bay. 

The flagstone path was warm beneath her bare feet.

“Are you out here?” 

He wouldn’t have gone to his father’s palace without telling her… and she couldn’t recall him mentioning any other plans.

Then she heard… panting?

 She didn’t know what else to call the rapid and shallow breaths she was picking beyond the grove, near the back corner of the walled-off acre that was her haven. 

Elain took off at a furious pace, brushing past the flower and vegetable beds and through the stand of citrus trees.

“I can hear you,” she made no effort to disguise the ire in her voice. 

It had been six months since they’d had a nice evening just the two of them. She’d been looking forward to it from their second week in Scythia onwards. Even though it had been years since they accepted the bond, she still had needs. Obviously Lucien had enthusiastically sated some of those needs while they were abroad, but Elain missed the simple domesticity of their life here. And now he was off doing Cauldron knew what?!

Elain emerged from the trees. “Lucien—” 

She stopped short. 

Lucien was crouching on the ground, pointedly not looking at her. His white shirt and tan trousers splotched with rust-colored mud. The same colored mud that coated the limbs of the gray puppy whose head he was stroking. 

“Lucien Daanan Spell-Cleaver. What in the Mother’s name is going on?”

Ducking his head, Lucien murmured under his breath and the surrounding air stopped shimmering, the sound of his heartbeat filling Elain’s ears.

“You know I love you with everything I am, right?” 

Oh, the guilt in his voice was quite apparent.

“Lucien.”

“She tried to dig her way out of the garden just now, I was figuring out the best way to stop it from happening again,” he said sheepishly, gesturing to the rather obvious hole in the earth along the back wall. 

“She?”

“Eris came by earlier?” 

“Eris came by earlier, and?”

“This is Safira,” he scratched behind the puppy’s floppy ear and her tongue lolled. Lucien cleared his throat. “Apparently Cinder—the alpha of Eris’s pack of hounds—had a litter while we were in Scythia. He… uh… summoned Safira right before winnowing away. You know how Eris is—always minimizing anything he does that could be considered nice. He, quote, ‘didn’t want this one because his pack was already too large and she was the runt’ so he, quote, ‘figured that, after almost four-hundred years, I could handle the responsibility of having a smokehound of my own.’”

“Did he now?” Elain tried to make the words sharp and stern but the puppy—Safira—was looking over at her with pleading silvery eyes, kneading the ground with her large paws like she was trying to contain her excitement.

“Yes? Look, Elain—my love, my sunshine—when I was a boy, I spent every spare moment with Eris’s smokehounds and I always dreamed of having my own.”

Now both of them were looking at her with imploring eyes and Elain had already known where this exchange would conclude so she let out a long sigh, striding over to kneel beside him.

“You’re lucky I love you,” she withheld a huff of laughter, stretching out her hand for Safira to sniff. 

The hound rewarded her with a slobbery lick. Elain couldn’t help her smile. 

“Does that mean we can keep her?”

Elain did laugh then, “Yes, I suppose we can. Welcome to the family Safira.”

Domestic Elucien Headcanons

Some soft headcanons for your Sunday. ♥️

Elain will always be the baker in their household, but Lucien is very competent in the kitchen in his own right. He enjoys cooking some of his own favorite recipes from other courts and that he's learned over his travels, and he always gets the fire just right. Elain loves his cooking and finds the whole process extremely attractive, especially with the way he ties his hair back and rolls his sleeves up before getting to work.

She's no Nesta in terms of skill or technique, but she loves to dance with Lucien. Whether they're just swaying peacefully in the comfort of their own home or at one court function or another, she loves the feeling of being in his arms and how confident and competent he is in his lead. Lucien figures out she likes to dance with him and will sometimes make little excuses to do so.

They're both extremely, intuitively considerate of each other and aware in even the littlest ways. It's not unusual for him to use his magic to warm up her towel before she steps out of the bath or for her to bring him a hot, comforting cup of tea before he even expresses that he's tired or stressed.

Elain loves when he's fully relaxed and reading. She'll lie with him for a while under the blanket or curl up with him in the armchair, but eventually can't help herself in distracting him from his book.

He is 100% the hug-from-behind type when she's baking or working out in her garden and Elain loves it.

They love to go on walks in the woods or horseback riding together, and especially with the former, Lucien likes to pull her aside and quietly guide her to one animal he knows she loves or another. Foxes, fawns...they'll stay there together and observe them in silence.

They're not nearly as all over each other around their friends or family (as Elain prefers to keep things as private as possible with him) like they tend to be at home, but the vibe's still there and so palpable it's borderline nauseating to a few of the others.

[works-of-heart]

Heyyyyyyy! I’m your secret writer in the ACOTAR gift exchange! So excited to write something for you. Send me what you love/don’t love or any prompts 🫶🏻

oh my Gosh!!! I am so excited!!

I'm a big Elucien girlie! So anything with those two will be awesome! I'm not really big into Dub con and Non con.

I love anything with a cute domestic Elucien and Lucien celebrating Solstice and Starfall! Or even experiencing winter together! Honestly, just the happiness and love shared between them would be everything to me!

Whats your ship? gwynriel/elucien 🥰

What are your top 3 reasons why you ship them?

What is one thing you'd love to see in their book?

Hi anon🥰

What’s your ship? Gwynriel/elucien?

My ship is definitely Gwynriel💙

When was the moment you shipped them?

When I started noticing how much SJM was highlighting their reactions to each other….I was like hmmmm interesting….and then I read the bonus chapter and the rest is history

What are your top 3 reasons why you ship them?

They fit every SJM criteria for mates. Like she said it’s obvious.

The chemistryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

She made Azriel laugh like two million times in 4 pages of course I’m obsessed plus those shadows don’t just dance for anybody….

What is one thing you’d love to see in their book?

I would do anything for domestic fluffy Gwynriel 💙

[lucienarcheron]

I have this vision of Elucien coming home from some fancy dinner or event (impeccably dressed because duh) - and they bathe (together 😃), change into comfy pjs, and get a sneaky little late night snack and eat it together, giggling like teenagers in love, on the floor of their kitchen.

Domestic soft elucien is my everything! They're slightly tipsy and gossiping with each other about everything that went down at the dinner/event. When they finally get up, they dance (waltz if you will) their way to their bedroom, flirting up a storm until Lucien has Elain on her back and she let's out a cute little "oof" and he's smirking, resting his body on top of hers.

"Willing to have an after-party, little dove?"

"With you?" she whispers and leans up to kiss him quickly. "I'm willing to do anything."

[corcracrow]
