Give Me Something Beautiful by Separatist_Apologist

Summary
“You think my help is conditional?” he challenged.
“You’re a man aren’t you?” she shot back. Cassian dared a small step toward her. Nesta didn’t flinch nor did she shrink back. She merely watched, waiting to see what would happen.
“No, Nesta Archeron. I am not a man.”
And because he was so very, very stupid, Cassian unfurled his wings just to illustrate his point. He was a fae male, not a human man.“What’s the difference?” she demanded, her heart thudding so loud it was the only thing he could hear. Cassian couldn’t make heads or tails of the scent coming off her—it wasn’t fear or arousal, but something else. Something that excited him all the same.
“Would you like to find out?”
-or- The bond snaps between Nesta and Cassian the first time they meet

Golden Threads of Time by This_Immortal_Hope
Fandoms: A Court of Thorns and Roses Series - Sarah J. Maas
21 Sep 2025

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!

Summary
Nesta Archeron raised herself on Fairy tales, so she knew how they went. And when she was offered her first real choice, it's hard to deny the facts in front of her. She was locked in a tower, guarded by a dragon, and a prince was offering her a chance at freedom. The prince would never love her, and she would never love him. But she loved her freedom and she loved the idea of not hiding parts of who she was.
So she went.
And then the dragon huffed and puffed and... well... you know how the story goes.
*The Nesta agrees to marry Eris and Cassian loses his mind story that we have all been collectively craving and despising at the same time. Happy ending planned, but get ready for the A N G S T*
