Summary
For three years, she ignored the way she clung to updates about him from her brother, every little piece of his life he didn’t share with her in the course of a hookup. She disregarded the tightening in her chest and the fluttering in her stomach when they were together, noticing that he never stopped noticing her, anticipating her desires and giving them to her without her having to ask. And she refused to acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, it wasn’t only about sex — not for her, and maybe not for him either.
And that’s, of course, how she ended up here: huddled over a cauldron in the bathroom of her tiny flat, trying to work up the courage to prick her finger and pinch a drop of blood into the potion.

Summary
When Feyre overhears Nesta informing Cassian that the family's teasing has gotten to be too much for her, she realizes that there are many things about her sister that she may not know. That she is not privy to. Things, perhaps, that are reserved just for her mate.
In an effort to understand the eldest Archeron better, her family attempts to investigate, only to come upon soft moments between Nesta and Cassian instead.
Cassian, however, wants nothing more than time to dote on his mate in private.
---
Or, 5 times the Inner Circle witnesses Nessian behind closed doors, and one time they're truly alone, based on the theme of respecting boundaries and learning healthy communication.

It’s said that an Illyrian warrior’s wings are his greatest point of pride.

Summary
There is a single wavering moment in which it is just the three of them - Chani, Paul and his betrothed. As the world around her shakes and blurs, she looks into the eyes of the only boy she’s ever loved and she knows.
She knows that there is no going back, not for him or her. She knows that she lost him the moment they crossed the storm. Chani knows in the way she knew her mother was dead, that Paul is lost to her.
(His dreams turned reality, except she cannot draw him from his nightmares, from his sobs and cracking voice, from the hollowness in his eyes. He is gone. He is gone.)
But her people are alive, and she has never been fighting for this devastatingly lovely boy. So Chani falls to her knees, slowly and steadily, and when she lowers her head, it feels like the end of everything.
-
(In which Chani’s mother taught her that there was no shame in surviving in whatever way you could. Or Chani bends the knee to Paul and plays the long game for her people.)

“Then stop, Cassian!” She was shouting now, inches from his face. “Stop fighting for my life! I never asked you to! Forget about me and move on!”
A sparkling tear froze on the tip of her eyelash and he felt a triumph in it, this sign that she was in there somewhere. His hands ached for her. This had all gone so differently in his head.
“I can’t,” he admitted.

The Whole Truth by TheTeaQueen
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
25 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
“Stop it! Just stop it. None of you know what you’re talking about.”
“Your defense of your sister is admirable, but we’re only speaking truths.”
“But that’s just it. You don’t know the full truth. None of you do.”
“What are you talking about?” Feyre asked, and Nesta filled with horror. Elain wouldn't . She couldn't. She swore never to tell-
“Don’t you dare,” Nesta hissed, and she offered Elain one final glare, filled with an equal amount of pleading. She couldn’t fathom the thought of Feyre knowing her secret, she couldn’t bear the thought of them knowing. Not the full extent of what had happened, what had changed her well before the Cauldron-
“Father sold Nesta when she was 16.”
When Nesta's deepest secret is revealed at yet another tense dinner, she was sent into a spiral, desperate to escape before Feyre demanded answers. But it isn't her sister who comes to find her in the aftermath, it's someone else. Someone who might have more in common with her than she ever thought.
TW: Child abuse, suicidal thoughts/ideation, forced prostitution, sexual assault (underage!!)

Lady Death and Her Kingdom by TheTeaQueen
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
05 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
“Are you…” Nesta started, her voice nothing but a raspy whisper. “Are you real?”
She said the words as if she couldn’t bear to speak them fully aloud, as if she didn’t quite believe that he was.
Cassian blinked, brows furrowing. Not once had he ever seen her like this, not even when Elain had been put into the Cauldron, and not even during the war that followed. This was a level of horror he’d rarely seen in anyone, let alone this female, who was stoic until the last moment, always. And so, he heard himself say,
“I’m real. I’m real, sweetheart. See?”
Her eyes flicked down to his chest again, as if she didn’t believe him, and he reached for her injured hand gently, moving it so it could rest over his sternum, where his heartbeat rapidly.
“What is it?” He asked again. “Was it a dream?”
Her eyes met his, tears still streaming down her face. In a voice that was almost childlike, betraying her own confusion, she asked,
“You don’t see him?”

Or, when Amren pushes Nesta too far at training, she unlocks the full potential of her power, and with it comes devastating consequences.A post-ACOWAR AU in which Lady Death sees the dead, with chaotic results.

The Consequences of Normality by TheTeaQueen
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
24 Sep 2023
Tags
Summary
Three months after the end of ACOSF, all of the Inner Circle's problems have been solved and things in the Night Court finally feel back to normal. But as happy as Cassian is, he begins to notice new things about his mate. Like the way she still doesn't ask for things, how she sometimes puts on a façade for his family, how much self hatred still grips her. The last thing he wants is for her to fall back into that dark place, but when she begins cutting back on training and the Library, he can't help but worry.
Perhaps, all of their problems hadn't been solved with the birth of a new life and the destruction of Briallyn. Perhaps the methods they used to help Nesta heal hadn't been as beneficial as he thought. And perhaps, Cassian was realizing all of this too late.
A two chapter look into "what happens next" if the Inner Circle were to just assume everything was automatically great and move on as normal once Nyx and Feyre are saved and Briallyn is defeated.
A submission for Day 1 of Nessian Week 2023.

Golden Threads of Time by This_Immortal_Hope
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
21 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Nesta and Cassian have never required blades or leathers to spar with each other. Weapons change, battles are fought and won and lost and white flags are waved. They say things they don't mean, do things they regret. They aren't good at this. Love. Neither of them grew up knowing what that emotion was, so of course they didn't recognize it when it wrapped its fickle fist around their hearts. No, Nesta and Cassian are not good at love. But what they have is not love. It is life. Bright, passionate, blinding, and vital to their very being's as oxygen. One does not love to breathe, they simply die without it. Nesta and Cassian are not a love story... they are an inevitability.
A collection of Nessian drabbles and one-shots posted from my Tumblr (UnhealthyFanObsession). Some pre-ACOSF, some Post-ACOSF, some in an alternate timeline that I just made up and ran away with. Some smut, some sweet, some angst. Enjoy!
