Day 5 Favorite Tropes

Friends to Lovers - Gwynriel

Gwyn and Azriel will grow their friendship with banter, late night talks, and lots of patience. The safety and trust they build together results in a love neither of them expected to find in the other person. It will be so full and all encompassing it resembles the night sky. Leaving them breathless and in constant awe. Together. Friends to lovers to mates.

This song resembles it to me.

It’s a sense of calm in a world full of static. It’s coming home after a storm. It’s intimacy even when it’s scary.

It’s recognition and safety through repetition. It’s a blanket of warmth, offering you shelter from the cold.

It’s lasting love.

Cassian glanced over at Az, but his attention was fixed on the young priestess, admiration and quiet encouragement shining from his face. Gwyn whispered, “I am the rock against which the surf crashes.” Nesta straightened at the words, as if they were a prayer and a summons. Gwyn lifted the blade. “Nothing can break me.” [...]

And when Gwyn reached the finish line, bloody and panting and grinning so wildly her teal eyes glowed like a sunlit sea, she only extended her battered hand to Azriel. “Well?” - acosf, ch 60

And you look up and give me those eyes 'Cause all of the small things that you do Are what remind me why I fell for you And when we're apart, and I'm missing you I close my eyes and all I see is you And the small things you do

Something sparked in Azriel's chest, but he only nodded his thanks and left. He could picture it, though, as he ascended the stairs back to the House proper. How Gwyn's teal eyes might light upon seeing the necklace. For whatever reason... he could see it. But Azriel tucked away the thought, consciously erasing the slight smile it brought to his face. Buried the image down deep, where it glowed quietly. - Azriel bonus chapter

#gwynrielweeks2024 day six: mates.

since acosf came out i had this feeling that gwyn and az could have a beautiful connection, honestly I love both of them and think that the little moments when they coexist together are really cute and wholesome. I love that they love music, they’re warriors, they’re determined and love loveee that Azriel’s shadows are calm and curious around gwyn.🌌🦇🗡️✨

"Below the Edge of Darkness" is a book about a marine biologist, about bioluminescence in the sea. It has tentacles on the cover.

"life and light in the sea" is not a nod to e/riel.

But of course some e/riels are convinced it has to do with Az based on the title alone and the use of "light" and darkness. Because one clearly thinks of Elain when they think of anglerfish. 🤦

If we're trying to spin the selection she had displayed, a book on flowers and women's roles in medieval society would lean Elain and a book on the ocean would lean Gwyn. Or even House of Many Waters at some point.

// Azriel, The Shadowsinger //

“His shadows were different. Born in a lightless, airless prison meant to break him. Instead, he had learned its language.”

[bearbluebooks]

Chapter Eight of a Court of Whispered Melodies is out now, read it on AO3 :)

Sneak Peek: The flight was as magnificent as it was yesterday. When they landed, their gazes met, but instead of a similar glimmer of joy, his face was the usual mask of stoic indifference. Her heart dropped, just as her body did when he discarded her as soon as his feet hit the ground. She barely landed on her feet, when she saw him flex his hands as if he was disgusted by her touch. Just like that, the intimacy of the moment was gone, as insecurity crept its way inside her heart, and eclipsed her earlier joy.

Was he disgusted by her? Was it because of her past?

Suddenly, her Illyrian leathers felt too exposed. She felt too exposed. Did she allow her wishes to cloud her judgment- once again? Just because Elain and Azriel weren't a couple anymore, that didn't mean she and Azriel would become one. She would never force him to share her romantic sentiments, no matter how much she wanted him to, but that didn't mean he could treat her with such blatant aversion.

With furrowed brows, she glared at the Shadowsinger who didn't seem bothered in the slightest. The only thing she saw was his retreating figure, as he walked away to examine the surroundings, not sparing her a second glance. His shadows searched for any possible danger too, except for one lone tendril of smoke, which floated in front of her as if to say I'm sorry.

Despite the decency of the one shadow, she felt an intense burning in her chest, as she vowed to push away the thoughts racing through her brain, to focus on the anger flooding her veins. Until she realized she was outside the library, and her breathing became more labored- what if someone found her here, what if somebody attacked again, what if- she halted her racing thoughts, as she forcefully pushed them into that dark prison she built inside her mind. Guarded by thick iron bars, hidden from sight and mind- even from herself.

“I forgot how good it feels to have the full sun upon my head.” She peered up again. “Forgive me if I spend some time gawking at the sky.”

Gwyn was the first priestess to brave her fears and step foot outside the safety of the library.

One small step with huge impact that ultimately led to her becoming a Valkery.

I Imagine her being momentarily transported back to Sangravah and the freedom she felt there. The pure euphoria of those liquid rays of happiness, after having lived inside the confines of the library for so long.
