    Summary

    Aelwyn, after the nightmare king's forest, has her work cut out for her when it comes to making friends or… being someone that people don’t actively hate. It’s a work in progress but she likes to think that she’s getting the hang of it.

    (Drabbles of Aelwyn in the little moments, the ones that other people don’t remember, but moments that she holds close to her heart.)

    Summary

    Trivia night might just be the start, but Aelwyn tries to be a better person in a dozen little ways.

    Sam keeps track of all of them. She keeps an unofficial list of all the things that she's noticed.

    (Maybe the list is official, if nobody else is keeping one. Perhaps Sam Nightingale is the keeper of the official list of ways Aelwyn Abernant tries to be a better person. The thought that Sam is some sort of forefront expert in the field of bitchy, traumatized, elves makes her smile just a little bit.)

    Summary

    This Helena can do. Well, Helena can do quite a lot of things but normally they’re not as delicate as this. Her hands aren’t made for delicate work, not anymore. Her hands are calloused and built for nothing but death and pain. There was once a time when they were softer, when her mother taught her cross stitch and Luca would bother her until they built his newest lego set together and—

    (or, Helena makes arrows because she's in desperate need of a distraction and it goes about as well as you'd expect)

    Summary

    I once sat on a gravel road at 4 am and was comforted by the sight of something moving in the distance. I knew I shouldn't approach, but I was comforted all the same.

    Summary

    After her father dies, Hope tries so hard to be good. If she can be good, maybe she can change her father’s legacy or make his death worth it. She looks at the dark, bubbling pit below her and feels an intrinsic need to do the right thing, even though she’s not totally clear what the right thing is.
    She’s not sure what she's aiming for but maybe this is it.
    Maybe this is the time she makes his sacrifice worth it.

     

    Hope Mikaelson learns early in her life what a martyr is. Life seems intent on beating her over the head with that lesson, that sometimes people die for what they believe in. It isn't until she's older that she starts to believe that dying for the ones you love might not be such a bad thing.

    Summary

    Lizzie can sense power when it’s around her, and on instinct she reaches out towards it. She’s told by her aunt Bonnie that it’s a survival instinct for siphoners - since they don’t have magic of their own, their brain is hardwired to find the nearest source and take, take, take-
    Lizzie doesn’t much like the feeling of taking.
