Neris headcanon

For @nerisweek 2024 , Day 3: Headcanons

Eris hails from Autumn and doesn't do well in the Summer heat when they're traveling. And according to @kateprincessofbluewhales it gives him nightmares. So..

Nesta uses her fire to cool him off and help him sleep.

Scene: On one of the trips visiting his brother in the Day court during Summer, Eris is having a hard time sleeping because of the heat. It triggers a recurring nightmare where Beron is still alive and he beheads Nesta in the throne room, in front of the whole court to prove a point. And no matter how many windows he opens, the hot summer air is doing him no favours.

After many restless nights Eris wakes up one morning fully rested and comfortable and confused. The room is comfortably cool like a brisk Autumn night. In his perusal of the room he sees the windows are all shut tight and there's a fire burning in the fireplace. Not any fire, Silver Flames. And sitting next to it is his beautiful wife, drinking tea and reading a book still in her night clothes. She looks up when she hears him move and says with a small smile ," Good morning Husband. Sleep well?"

A wave of emotions clog his throat and hinder his ability to speak so he gets out of bed and pads towards his wife. He cups her face and gives her a long deep kiss that he hopes conveys the true depths of his gratitude. He breaks the kiss but doesn't move away, caressing her nose with his as he brings their foreheads together and simply says

"Yes."

My TNG poll is over (Data won and I should not be surprised lmao; proud of dealer's choice Will Riker for pulling a solid third) so let's do another one!

Dax and Odo don't get to be in it because that feels like cheating. they're actually trans.

Regardless if Eris marries Nesta out of ambition or love, one thing remains the same: He doesn't push her to have sex with him or get pregnant. He's not a saint, but he's decent enough to prefer when a woman actually WANTS him before sleeping with her.

Nesta was raised to see children as another duty to fulfill once she married, and after Nyx's birth, she has some heavy feelings about pregnancy, and she tells Eris that much. He respects it and agrees to wait until she's ready, until she genuinely wants to be a mother. When they sleep together, they both take precautions and make sure to not take risks.

Eris has no problem arguing with Beron if the man tries to pressure Nesta into giving them an heir, making it one of the few times he actually fights his father back. And that's the first time Nesta imagines herself having kids with him because seeing him standing up like that for her sake made her feel things

If they get married out of love, this process is even smoother because they just enjoy their time together by going into a long romantic honeymoon, away from everything. Eris has brothers after him, so it's not like he needs to conceive a child urgently, and Nesta always wanted to see the world first. It's only years after their marriage that they finally take that step, because Nesta begins to imagine her own family with Eris really often and the man is downright having a baby fever because of Elucien's kids.

The moment they start trying, they barely take breaks from it. They take this matter very seriously. Nesta falls pregnant within the month and gives birth to twin daughters.

Cassian to Nesta (canonically): What? You think I wanna be shackled to you?!?

meanwhile, Eris to Nesta (probably): I always did enjoy playing around with cuffs 😏

headcanon monday: idk what im doing ERIS WOULD HAVE MARRIED NESTA IF GIVEN A PROPER CHANCE AND TREATED HER SO GOOD

(is that a headcanon? idk)

A headcanon is like a canon you have, even if it is not actually canon, so yes it is and also YESS! Do not get me wrong, I love Nessian and Cassian is such a good mate for her. They are opposites attract and I love it. But her and Eris would also be SO good.

Eris and Nesta...:

Would be unstoppable. Are you kidding me? They would be the literal definition of "I would burn the world for us."

They both have daddy issues so would 100% trauma bond over it. Hopefully in a healthy way eventually.

Eris would push Nesta to her full potential. And before you say it, I am not saying Cassian DOESNT do that for her. I'm just saying Eris would see her power and instead of trying to control it or be fearful of it, he would use it.

Eris would treat her like a queen.

Jewelry, dresses, food, decor, gold, he would bathe her in diamonds if it would make her happy. World's biggest simp when it comes to Nesta.

I think they would be the perfect example of "I don't want to fix them, I want to join them."

I do think they would genuinely love each other.

However, I think they would definitely be the couple to watch because you know what they say about too much power...

But even if they did? Good for them. I would vote for them.

Neris Week - Day 3 : Headcanons | @nerisweek

So, here is a small list of a few headcanons I have about them. it is kinda late, so it was done fast, and sorry for grammar mistakes as eng is not my first language:

Eris holds Nesta's hand over his heart all the time whatever it is possible, and she uses his chest as pillow.

Sometimes when Nesta wakes up earlier and can't go back to sleep, she makes a few small braids on Eris's hair, or tries to depending of its lenght.

Eris obviously always adjust Nesta's drinks temperature (a popular one yay) and he always makes sure her coats, gloves, blankets... are warm before handing it to her.

They both are touch starved and cuddle when they are reading together.

Eris uncounciously makes a soft voice when talking with Nesta.

They sometimes stells each other's entertaiment books.

Neris week: headcanons

@nerisweek

• Nesta has cold hands. She loves getting her hands under Eris’s shirt since his body is a live heater. He doesn’t mind, he likes to hold her hands and warm them up, always saying she needs a better coat. And he does buy her a new coat.

• They both are clueless on how to express their love. So they both are like… ‘unfuck you??? I guess???’ at first. Eris’s display of affection is also buying her everything he thinks she will like. Jewelry, dresses, flowers. He can winnow throughout all Prythian, visit every court just to find the best things. Nesta’s one is that she joins Elain’s baking lessons with Nuala and Cerridwen, making him sweets.

• They both were surprised about each other’s sweet tooth. Eris now hires the best bakers in Prythian so Nesta will always have the best chocolate cake. Even though he will always say that anything she bakes will be ten times better. Nesta doesn’t bake often, it’s not her thing, but once in a while she does enjoy doing that for her and Eris.

• Once Eris tried to bake a chocolate cake himself. He was embarrassingly bad at that. He prefers not to recall that evening

• Nesta is clueless about most of fae stuff. So Eris always has something to explain. He explains very patiently and never shames her for lack of knowledge about anything.

• Eris takes her on a tour around Prythian to introduce her to different courts’ cultures. Nesta buys small souvenirs from every court to remember about the visits.

• His hounds LOVE Nesta. From the first time they saw her, they’d been charmed! Eris was kinda perplexed because never once his hounds were THAT friendly to a stranger. Nesta says it was others’ skill issue. She loves to spoil his hounds. Eris grumbles that she makes them too soft for hunting hounds.

• Whenever they argue the hounds are like children of divorce. Because they have to take sides. There are some who vary their side from time to time, and there are some hounds that always go to Nesta and some that always go to Eris. Because sometimes when they argue they sleep separately and hounds go to their beds, keeping them company.

• Whenever they argue too badly, hounds do not like that at all and tug on their clothes, pulling them closer to each other and barking at them as if saying go apologize!!

• They both freak out when Nesta gets pregnant. Not because they don’t want a child. They do. Very much so. But they both are very worried about possible mirroring their abusive parents’ behavior. Nesta reminds Eris he is not his father; Eris reminds Nesta she is not her mother. They both become the most loving parents.

• LoA adores Nesta, they often have tea parties. Eris is offended he never invited to one. They say it’s girls only. Soon it becomes tea party with LoA, Nesta and Elain where LoA always tell some embarrassing stories about Eris and Lucien — they both are mortified.

• Eris learned how to dance because it was a good training for his body, and it was a good skill for political events. He never dislike it, but never truly loved it either. Then he danced with Nesta and started liking dancing more.

• Nesta arranges girls nights very often. Eris always gives her the full manor in her access and leaves for the night to a different estate, not wanting to interrupt her personal time with friends. They both need their time separate from each other, they are also mature enough to talk about it, so they have a schedule.

• Eris likes making schedules. For everything. Nesta says he’s weird, often messing with his physical schedules, writing there something silly or drawing something on them. Eris secretly likes that.

• Eris teaches her how to light the sword with fire. He thinks he might create a monster by that. Because Nesta with silver flamed sword? Unhinged!! The first thing she does is she goes to scare big bats. She giggles evilly when she does.

• Nesta once left her book open on the nightstand. Saying Eris was flabbergasted would be understatement. He asks about that directly and Nesta blushes. He then offers to recreate a few certain scenes that he oh so accidentally already read. Nesta blushes more. Nesta agrees.

• Once in a while they recommend books to each other.

• Nesta gets a cat. And if they both were worried hounds will scare the poor thing off, they didn’t. Instead, the little kitten became their leader. And as she turned into a big cat, the hounds are kinda scared of her. Nesta always laughs about that. Eris says it’s because she and the cat share the same eyes.

• Eris is touch starved at first. He clings to her as much as even possible. Cuddles in bed, hugging her from behind whenever she stands her back to him, holding hands whenever they can.

• Sometimes Feyre asks Nesta to look after Nyx, so the boy stays in their manor. Eris calls him ‘it’ and refuses to even acknowledge that little pest at first. He has constant beef with him for Nesta’s attention bc apparently Nesta is Nyx’s favorite auntie. Eris secretly likes Nyx but will never admit that. Instead he will just silently give the boy the most expensive chocolate he has and shoo him away. Nyx once calls him his favorite uncle in front of everyone. Cassian has heart attack.

Headcanons for Neris

For @nerisweek Day 3 : Headcanons, Read on Ao3 Here.

Headcanons for Neris Based on the Moodboard -

Nesta learns to knit to manage her stress. The familiar motion of the needles, coupled with the surge of happiness she feels when she can create something that brings joy to others, is healing for her soul. She regularly gifts Eris with handmade scarves, blankets, and even a dog plushie resembling his shadowhound, Cinnamon.

In turn, Eris learns to cook, experimenting with new recipes he has learned from his mother, crafting mouthwatering delicacies for Nesta. It delights him to know that his efforts can bring her joy.

They often take leisurely walks near Eris's secluded cabin in the Autumn woods. Sometimes, they engage in deep, meaningful conversations that last for hours; other times, they walk in companionable silence, savoring the beauty of nature around them. These moments calm them both. They also indulge in playful games like "I Spy," behaving like children eager to reclaim a piece of the carefree youth they never experienced, determined to make the most of their time together now.

Nesta finds solace in the library at Autumn Manor, with its wealth of poetry, intriguing subjects, and sweet romances. At night, Eris reads poetry to her, his soothing baritone lulling Nesta into a peaceful slumber. As she rests her head on his chest, a look of pure bliss graces her face. Eris, observing her serene expression, smiles at these precious moments, kisses her head, and pulls her closer, cherishing the quiet intimacy they share.

Okay. So. Kiradax brainrot brought me a thought.

I see a lot of depictions of Dax being the more experienced person in the relationship, confident and informed by 6-7 lifetimes. Kira, having been actively in a war up until recently, is less experienced in romantic relationships.

So mostly I see either Kira crushing on Dax but not sure if she feels the same OR Dax liking Kira and hitting on her but being very mindful of her traumatic past. I really like those dynamics, but also, consider:

Jadzia is in her early to mid twenties and has spent most of her adult life as an initiate for the Dax symbiont.

SO in all likelihood, Jadzia herself hasn’t been in very many (if any) romantic relationships. What we know of Jadzia pre-Dax, is that she was a studious and shy person. This perfectly facilitates an interpretation that Jadzia is crushing on Kira for a while as they get to know each other. From Jadzia’s perspective, she’s just been assigned to work with a strong, competent, gorgeous, talented, and fierce woman.

[etchedjade]

Funny scenario: When Nesta and Eris vanish for their honeymoon, they accidentally cause an almost war in prythian, with the LoA herself storming in the night court with her sons demanding to know what did they do to the couple. Lucien is shocked to see her there but lasts little when he finds out Eris and Nesta are gone and inmediately shifts to accuse the ic of having something to do with it

Elain faints and Feyre is on the vedge of a panic attack because she just found out that Nesta vanished (sisters of the year everybody). Rhysand is trying to defend himself and his court from the accusations, while pointing his finger at the spring court instead. Tamlin retaliates and implies the Summer court maybe know something, which ofc they defend themselves and try to blame Day instead, at which Helion neither denies or confirms. The only one that's having the time of his life with the drama

(Tamlin and Helion are the only ones who know what happened, since the couple passed by their courts for their honeymoon. They're just stirring the pot for fun)

I’d sit back with Tam and Helion to watch this play out. This level of chaos deserves some popcorn 😂

It also highlights how childish these 500+ year old fae act—which I think is even more hilarious as one of them likes to bully a 23 year old…

Anywho, thank you for sharing and elaborating even more!

Is she a lesbian?

disclaimer: this is a hc, not speculating on what the writers intentions were.

reason: I know she dates men in canon, but canon is wrong. She is a lesbian in my heart.

Teeth

No one knows it, but Kira kept her father's teeth when he died.

Not all Bajora do it. Some find it disgusting. Others consider it profane, disrespectful- there are a lot of Bajora, after all, spread out over 14 planets and all their moons, even if it was sparse on some. It's impossible for them to fully agree on a custom- even the Kai cannot curb all dissent. But growing up, Kira was taught that was the proper way.

A body is only a vessel. The dead are empty. Empty vessels get reused, reabsorbed into the world- carrying their essence and relinquishing it to the vessels that are full. And teeth have a powerful essence.

Her father's teeth are only faintly lavender from urka chewing. Not the rich violet or plum of a prosperous, social man- he'd shown her her grandparents teeth once, placing them in her tiny, pale palm. They were that color.

Rolling them over with his fingertip, he pointed out their subtle, distinguishing features to her- a deeper recess on her grandfather, a crack in her grandmother.

Teeth were powerful because they were memory. You knew what a person ate, what their habits were, rich or poor, indulgent or sober, hearty or sickly. And like your eyes, your teeth resembled your parents.

There was an order of importance to teeth, too. A Bajora's incisors grew with the throughout their life, though in excess it was a disease. They had 5 sets for all the others. The incisors went to your children. The front teeth faced the world- they went to your surviving siblings, or worse, parents. If lucky they skipped that and went to your nieces and nephews- the closer the set to the one you died with, the closer the niece or nephew by relation. The back teeth did not face the world, but labored hard. They went to more distant relatives. All were passed down through generations- teeth were not individual in ownership.

Her father, when he was done, picked them up and wrapped them in a tiny piece of linen. These were the only ones they had. The rest were lost- buried for safety at the start of the occupation under a house torn to shreds, a new foundation dug where it sat. Dirt and everything in the dirt dumped who knows where.

In war, comrades were included in the tradition. Front teeth, if possible.

In the leather case on Kira's hip, she carried only 3 people.

It wasn't a war. A war implied the wrong circumstances. And regardless of if it had been, she'd never been lucky enough to have the time to bury most of her comrades- much less bring the traditions of her caste, of her province into things.

Her mother's mother and mother's father went with her when she died. They did not sit on Kira's hip.

She didn't get her brother's bodies. So she didn't get their teeth either. 

Teeth are memory and teeth stay long after the flesh goes. It is not that you're alive so long as your loved ones keep your teeth safe, but- it matters.

Funny idea:

Beron has actually wanted to have daughters since forever. He only tolerated his sons because he needed an heir and back-up plans, but he never really wanted them. They were just another duty to him, and one of them was supposed to take on his legacy at some point, so he refused to be gentle while raising them. The future High Lord of Autumn should be a hardened man prepared for the worst and capable of enduring all kind of situations. If his sons couldn't go through some torture, then they were just unworthy of the throne. At least in his eyes.

A daughter was different. He would be free to spoil her and dote on her with no shame, because he didn't expect her to inherit the High Lord title. She didn't need the same "training". Of course, he would still want her to be useful to him and shape her into a valuable asset, but he'll still treat her better than he did with his sons. That said, the dynamic would still be toxic af and the girl would grow up traumatized as well.

(+Bonus for my Neris au):

When Nesta gave birth to the twin girls, everyone thought Beron would be heavily dissapointed and the poor babies won't be received well by him. Both Eris and Nesta were prepared for insulting comments and berating from the High Lord of Autumn. The other sons were really nervous as well, expecting the worst.

So imagine their shock when Beron not only welcomes his grandaughters warmly, but he even holds them and seems happy to see them. Eris can't remember an instance where his father had shown half of that gentleness and warmth with any of his brothers. Hell, he didn't even hold them at all, like the mere contact with the babies was repulsive to him.

And yet there he was, throwing his grandaughters casually in the air to make them laugh, having them on his lap while he spoke to courtiers, and boasting proudly whenever they burned anything with their powers. Going on and on about how the Vanserra bloodline remained strong.

The High Lady of Autumn was the only one unfazed by this behaviour.

"Your father always wanted to have daughters himself, after all. He's finally living that dream"

"So, he would've been a jerk if we had boys instead?"

"Don't be harsh, dear. If you had boys, he would've simply treat them like he treated you and your brothers when you were born"

Needless to say, Eris and Nesta were very happy that they had daughters instead, specially Eris.

But Beron's newly found grandfather love posed a problem. A big one.

"How are we going to proceed with the coup now? Our girls love him, it'll break their hearts if that asshole died! Nesta, what do we do?!"
