#i really outdid myself with this one

A voice in the void, a secret and a quiet dreamer

Rowaelin:

"But I sent you to Wendlyn for the healing. And so you would ... find him. The one who had been waiting so long for you." Aelin's heart cracked. "Rowan." Elena nodded. "He was a voice in the void, a secret, silent dreamer. And so were his companions. But the Fae Prince, he was..." Aelin reined in her sob. "I know. I've known for a long time." "I wanted you to know that joy, too," Elena whispered. "How- ever briefly." “I did,” Aelin managed to say. “Thank you.

And we have Elriel:

The golden necklace seemed ordinary -- its chain unremarkable, the amulet tiny enough that it could be dismissed as an everyday charm. It was a small, flat rose fashioned of stained glass, designed so that when held to the light, the true depth of the colors would become visible. A thing of secret, lovely beauty. 

She arched a brow. He explained, “They pull people together. And bring them joy. They are a time to pause and reflect and gather, and those are never bad things.” Shadows darkened his eyes, full of enough pain that she couldn’t stop herself from touching his shoulder. Letting him see that she understood why he stood in the doorway, why he wouldn’t go near the fire. His secret to tell, never hers. Azriel’s face remained neutral.

And I will explain the "a voice in the void" part.

Elain was lost to the murky realm after the cauldron and being made. We now know it is because she was a seer.

Azriel had been the one who "freed" her from that murky realm.

But more importantly...before she was even freed from that murky realm, Azriel had focused her in a way if you look at these two scenes:

Rhys gave her a sharp look. But Elain said quietly, “The queen might come.” Silence. Elain was staring at the unlit fireplace, eyes lost to that vague murkiness. “What queen,” Nesta said, more tightly than she usually spoke to our sister. “The one who was cursed.” “Cursed by the Cauldron,” I clarified to Nesta, pushing off the archway. “When it threw its tantrum after you … left.” “No.” Elain studied me, then her. “Not that one. The other.” Nesta took a steadying breath, opening her mouth to either whisk Elain upstairs or move on. But Azriel asked softly, taking a single step over the threshold and into the sitting room, “What other?” Elain’s brows twitched toward each other. “The queen—with the feathers of flame.” The shadowsinger angled his head. Lucien murmured to me, eye still fixed on Elain, “Should we—does she need …?” “She doesn’t need anything,” Azriel answered without so much as looking at Lucien. Elain was staring at the spymaster now—unblinkingly. “We’re the ones who need …” Azriel trailed off. “A seer,” he said, more to himself than us. “The Cauldron made you a seer.”

Let alone this is the "you are a seer" scene which freed elain from the murky realm. The "unblinking" part is quiet important. Whenever Elain has a vision or talks in riddles she is blinking rabidly. A few examples...

So as you can see...she is looking at Azriel "unblinkingly"

Another scene is this:

But Elain shook me off, heading back to the stairs. She said as she climbed the first steps, “I can hear her—crying.” I gripped the bottom post of the banister. “Who?” “Everyone thinks she’s dead.” Elain kept walking. “But she’s not. Only—different. Changed. As I was.” “Who,” I pushed. But Elain continued up the stairs, that shawl drooping down her back. Nesta stalked from Cassian’s side to approach my own. We both sucked in a breath, to say what, I didn’t know but— “What did you see,” Azriel said, and I tried not to flinch as I found him at my other side, not having seen him move. Again. Elain paused halfway up the stairs. Slowly, she turned to look back at him. “I saw young hands wither with age. I saw a box of black stone. I saw a feather of fire land on snow and melt it.”

Feyre asks and asks...nothing. Azriel asks and she stops to look back at him.

And this whole parallel hits even harder when you think about how Rowan had a mate...but it was fake and there are MANY parallels with elriel and rowaelin. Such as these BANGERS.

So yeah...I think this is my top parallel find. I'm retiring. I cant top this.

vampire!Leo. you enter your apartment and flick on the lights, only to be met with someone thrown casually on your couch. you let out a sharp noise that's somewhere between a gasp and a scream, jumping back on instinct as your adrenaline spikes. he chuckles softy, flashing his dangeorusly sharp teeth that hide behind pretty lips as your brain catches up.

"You know, I thought that was you coming up the stairs..." he says lightly. you refrain from rolling your eyes and throw your jacket at him. he catches it with no effort. you knew he would, but that didn't stop you from making such a... human gesture. such a natual show of annoyance at his attitude and constant presance that you're growing more and more fond of, even if you don't want to admit it.

"of course it's me," you retort, "I'm the only one with a key, smartass..." as much as you might try, you can't mask your excitement to see him with annoyance. he fidgets with the buttons on your jacket, glancing back up at you with piercing eyes such a deep shade of red it makes you think of wine, or pomegranites, or... blood, you suppose. he runs his tongue over his teeth, and it amazes you that he doesn't cut himself on his fangs.

"house keys aren't that hard to make." he shrugs, and you scoff. before you can reply, you notice his gaze lingers on you. he smirks even more, looking you up and down.

"what?" you ask. he looks at you like he knows something, like he just got told 'hey, my friend thinks you're really cute'. there's something in his eyes, a hunger that starts to make itself more known below his playful - dare you say, cocky - smirk.

"your heart's still pounding."

with a soft woosh, he stands in front of you in an instant, knocking the air from your lungs as he brings his face closer to you. his slender fingers guide your head softly to the side as he lowers his lips to your ear slowly. his skin is cool to the touch as it soaks up your warmth. now you can really feel it; your heart beats louder and harder in your chest as his lips brush your skin, the tips of his fangs almost grazing along your neck. he presses his nose against your pulse, inhaling deeply before letting his breath fan over your skin and drawing a shudder all the way up your spine. when he speaks, his voice is lower than before, but you still hear every word loud and clear.

"it smells good..."

so uh. that 2.2 Special Program, huh

CHAPTER 3

will be uploaded this or next week. I actually wanted to do it today but not only did my proofreader not go over it yet (which is absolutly fine. I am going at their pace) but tomorrow AO3 will be down for the day for maintenance (for about 10 hours).

Thus it made no sense to me to upload the chapter now as nobody would have access to it for the first day. So the release will be pushed back for after Monday or for the next week.

But chapter art is ready to go as is the chapter.
