hi :)
Everyone thinks my version of Cardan looks like Cassian, so why not do him too? Thought I’d take a stab at straight-up digital colour over a pencil drawing, and it came out looking kind of like a page from a comic book. Based on a scene from Embers & Light by @duskandstarlight – check it out if you’re up for some Nessian! 😊
“Keep reaching out your hand.” 🤍

Nesta wearing Cassian's shirt and insisting it's not his, but it's practically a dress on her and when she turns around he sees the snaps on the back for his wings.

“But I still don’t know how to fix myself.” “There’s nothing broken to be fixed,” he said fiercely.

It had started gradually.
Cassian pretended not to notice.
He didn’t want to push her. Knowing Nesta, she would never actually speak of it if he did. So, Cassian pretended not to notice her brief little nightly trips to his bedroom, but oh, he noticed alright. He noticed how she’d come, pause in front of his door for a moment then leave again.
Their relationship had shifted in the past few weeks, something everyone had annoyingly picked up on and grinned about despite Nesta’s very specific death threats. She was very private about their relationship and preferred to keep things at a steady pace which Cassian didn’t mind, they would go as slowly and be as private as she needed.
This new habit of hers however, this was starting to make Cassian think other things. Did she want to move forward with their relationship? Was there something else bothering her? He liked to pride himself on knowing Nesta’s needs but for once, he wasn’t sure and this worried him.
“You’re fine. I’m protecting you.”I am yours, Nes.He didn’t want to push her. Knowing Nesta, she would never actually speak of it if he did. Nesta is so stubborn omg we are twins
So, Cassian pretended not to notice her brief little nightly trips to his bedroom, but oh, he noticed alright. it’s hard to put into words how full of joy my heart is right now what. I imagine that Nesta looks at him and her heart is not shielded but her glance is cold stone just in case she gets caught.
Their relationship had shifted in the past few weeks, something everyone had annoyingly picked up on and grinned about ME
to keep things at a steady pace which Cassian didn’t mind, they would go as slowly and be as private as she needed. they have all the time, ‘TIll darkness dies
This new habit of hers however, this was starting to make Cassian think other things. Did she want to move forward with their relationship? Was there something else bothering her? this is so cute just imagining Cassian sitting and thinking with a lil pout on his face and his eyebrows furrowed
He would fly her down in the mornings when she wanted to rejoin the group or spend his free time with her up there or anywhere else around Velaris she wanted to go. he just loves her so much and wants to be with her for everything I’m so happy
The first time she had hovered a few feet away from his door, Cassian had gotten up, worried. omg she can feel the bond too and she isn’t pushing it away :P and my baby Cassian
“What’s wrong?” he asked her quietly. he’s so freaking carrying like stop this is all too much
“Nothing. I – I’m just checking on you.” Nesta…..admitting something like that?……… damn
Nesta looked at him and hesitantly reached out a hand, placing it over his heart. Cassian’s hand rested over hers almost immediately, naturally. no words just smiles and adoration and ugh that “naturally” part is just so them they were made for each other they can’t be one without the other
It would be the middle of the night and he’d jolt awake, feeling her stand outside his door, never knocking. aww she doesn’t want to wake him up and he’s so worried about her but the truth is Cassian is always ready to be there for her from the nightmares to the tiny papercuts
Just standing outside the door until he opened it to find her face scrunched up in worry. omg is it that she can feel the pain Cassian is trying to push away and suppress ???
Cassian immediately opened his arms, an invitation. take ME in, bro
Nesta stilled for a moment then melted into him, her hands slowly coming to wrap around his back, yes yes I’m so proud of my baby
“Nothing to be sorry about, sweetheart.” he said, kissing the top of her head. “I’m worried about you actually…Anything you want to talk about? Anything I can do?” the “sweetheart”, the kiss on the head this is too much for my heart
hated that he couldn’t just pour every ounce of love he had in her lest she get overwhelmed. one day he will, baby steps
Cassian watched after her, his worry increasing by the minute. she is his weakness
His eyes flew open and he froze when he felt a body slip under the sheets next to him. this gave my tummy, ooh, I nice feeling
“I can’t sleep. Can I stay?” she whispered again and Cassian’s heart clenched. my heart clenched too and Nesta whispering is so endearing because it’s so intimate and sacred
“Of course, Nesta. You know this room is yours as it’s mine.” yes it is
Nesta had crawled on top of him, wrapped her legs around his waist and buried her head into the crook of his neck. I wanna do that too, man
Cassian’s brows furrowed as he felt her tremble against him, her fingers gripping his shirt and he wrapped an arm around her waist while the other rubbed soothing circles on her back. protect her she needs the most protection out of anyone :(
tilting his head to glance at her then gently kissing her forehead. boop
“No. I just want to keep you safe.” she mumbled into his neck WHEN SHE COVERED HIS BODY WITH HERS IN THE WAR HADJFKLDF
I am yours, Nes. see they were made for each other I just love them so much and I feel like crying again
“I am yours and you are mine.” she said softly and he smiled, hugging her closer. listen to this song
“Two times I’ve had to watch you almost die.” Nesta continued. “I don’t want to watch it happening in my dreams too. Stop trying to die.” hahaha this is so sweet sad but sweet and funny
“You said you wanted time. Give me that time.” she said quietly, a plea in her tone. “Stop trying to die.” my sweet pea I need Cassian to hold her
Cassian’s arms tightened around her and then his wings draped over them. and everything is better (and so freaking cool and romantic)
She stiffened, her head shooting back up.
“Is that –”
“Yes, it’s my boner, Nesta.” LISTEN!– BISH YOU CANT JUST THROW THAT IN
He let out yelp as both her fists collided right where his kidneys would be and he was viciously reminded that Nesta was a lot stronger than she gave herself credit for. I’m sorry Cass but this made me smile hehe
“You’re fine. I’m protecting you.” little happy dance
“And they say romance is dead.” Nesta replied with a snort and Cassian laughed, pulling her up and hugging her closer to him. She nuzzled her head in the crook of his neck, smiling to herself. this is how I want them to be all the time I just want them to be happy and at peace and I’m crying
He could bring her peace and comfort and she gave him a reason to live. they only exist for each other I’m so emotional I can’t stop crying it’s just
“…If I manage not to die for two days in a row, do I get to touch your boob?” hahaha
please stop making me cry I don’t like it

Nesta stared down grimly at the empty bathtub. She did not want to take a bath. She was perfectly fine with her damn bucket but someone wouldn’t stop nagging her about it.
“Time to face those fears, young lady.”
She rolled her eyes then glowered at him.
“I don’t want to.”
“You were able to sit in there for a little bit everyday this past week.” Cassian replied. “Let’s try that with more water this time.”
Nesta frowned, her fingertips tracing the edge of the tub. “I don’t want to.” she mumbled again and Cassian gave her a look.
“Nes.” he started, pulling her against him and interlacing their fingers. “You need to push those fears. You can’t let it control you. You told me to help you. I’m here to help you. You can do this. You’ve been doing it. It’s going to be fine.”
Her eyes locked on their interlaced fingers and she pursed her lips. He was right, of course.
ugh I have really wanted something “nesta and bathtub” related and this is like hella better and it will be so and soft and fluffy
“You were able to sit in there for a little bit everyday this past week.” Cassian replied. “Let’s try that with more water this time.” cassian is so patient and careful a Man!
“Nes.” he started, pulling her against him and interlacing their fingers. NES and puling her towards him to hold her YESH YESH MORE FLOOF
had to open her big fat mouth about the damn bathtub thing. this makes me so sad because nesta holds in her emotions and fears and she suffers alone and cassian is right there but she’s not used to love and oh my baby :(
(unrelated to the fic I think I made some small cracks on my laptop’s screen :| )
had to make him promise to help her get over it. because he is the only one she trusts :)
Her eyes followed the matching tattoos that laced both their hands down to their forearms. What an idiotic way to seal a bargain. ITS NOT DUMB NESTA and plus she looks hot and even more deadly and fierce and she knows she LOVES how closer it makes her and cassian AND HE looks hot so !
“That is generally how one takes a bath, yes.” Cassian said the Sass !!!!!! hehehe
and the smirk that followed had her glaring at him. she wants to kiss it
“But seeing as you’ve been wearing something each time you sat in here, I didn’t think you remembered that.” 1. Cass don’t tease her this is very hard for her and 2. oh my baby :( she’s so scared I don’t like that and I am so proud of her baby steps are A-Okay this just made me so sad and heartbroken :(
She groaned and he laughed, bringing a hand up to lift her chin and meet her gaze. their brand ! and oh I love chin lifting it’s so soft but hot too and in other words their brand too !!! HA!
“It’ll be fine. I’ll wait outside. We’ll only put a little bit more water than last time and I’ll wait until you need me.” this is why I love him he is so patient and understating and caring. Ugh! Need me a man like that.
Nesta’s face paled and the grip on his hand tightened. “No. I don’t want you to be outside.” MY BABY!!!! SHE NEEDS HER CASSIAN I don’t if I wanna cry because it’s soft or because my soft goddess is scared like I just I’m
“Then I’ll be here with you and you can wear something you don’t mind getting wet.” yesh
She loved him. yeah you do hehe
He snorted. “You are my business. It’s not being nosy when it’s my business.” his woman….YEET :))))))

Mates or not, they had chosen each other.
Mates or not, they had chosen each other.
I’m getting this framed
“I was in a sleeping gown when I went into that stupid cauldron.” that must be so traumatic, waht does she sleep in?
Mates or not, they had chosen each other. I really love this.
Nesta shook her head, trying but failing to hold back a chuckle. “You’re impossible.” this cute
“I don’t think you can resist how magnificent my ass is going to look when I casually bend down to close the water.” oh my gods Cassian !!!! hahahaha
“Are you watching, Nesta? I’m casually bending.” this is so funny HSKJHAJKSD
Judging by the noise that had escaped from Cassian, territorial fae bastard fuck (her and me)
he was standing in nothing but his boxer shorts and Nesta was satisfied to see that indeed, she was leaving more of an impact on him than she had anticipated. *smirk face*
Of course Rhys would make tubs this huge just so he and Feyre could fuck around in them lady boner
“Come, sit down with me. I won’t let go of your hand.” MY BABIES that must be such I nice feeling (man I want that :/)
“Cassian.” she choked out, her knuckles turning white as she tightened her grip. This was a bad idea. She shouldn’t have listened to him. This was going to be a terrible, terrible thing – :( no no no my baby you can do it oh I just want her to not feel like this
“You won’t go?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. I’m sad :/
Nesta leaned in to rest against his chest, her head tilting up slightly so her eyes would find his. awwww AAAWWWWWWW
Take bubble baths together. yesh please :p this is so darn cute boop hehe :)
“Does putting bubbles on your head count as ruining the moment?” EEEEHHHHHH hehehe this is so soft I love
“As long as I get to give you a bubble beard in return.” I’m so happy for her
oh gods I missed this and it made me so emotional
“You won’t go?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Mates or not, they had chosen each other.

A/N: This request has been sitting in my inbox for a couple of weeks now… And I’ve been trying to deal with how I would handle this. I know this is a sensitive area with the fandom… I tried to write true to the characters and to the feelings they might have about the situation.
I love both of these characters. So… You can imagine how hard it was to write this confrontation.
It is also found on my AO3 and Fanfic Masterlist
Summary: Cassian takes Mor home after a night at Rita’s. They finally begin to talk about the treatment of Nesta. It’s a difficult conversation that leaves both parties hurting.
She could still hear the drums—could hear the rhythm they banged out, a siren’s song for all that had been at Rita’s. Dance it had crooned to Morrigan, Dance the night away.
So she had.
Underneath the guard of her Illyrian friends, the fae had spent the eve
celebrating the richness of the music.
And she had continued to dance even when Cassian had returned her to the luxury
that was her apartment.
“Dance Cas,” Mor laughed, red-wine lips pulling back in a beautiful smile.
Drunk on song, she had tugged at the commander’s hand—encouraging him to give
in to the beat of the song they had left
behind.
“There’s no music,” he had replied, for once sober after a night spent out on
the town.
Her pout was devastating—a mastered look that, not that long ago, would have
had Cassian crawling on his knees to give her the world, “Awww, what’s wrong? Can
you not hear it? I can. And it’s telling me to dance.”
“Let her ruin me. Let her be my undoing. I want her to break every damn part of me! that’s kinky
She could have left me to die; but she chose to stay. She chose to die with me. So no, you don’t get to sit here in front of me and tell me how awful she is. I make that choice for myself. And I choose to love her with every damned part of my soul.” YOU TELL HER HONEY
Cautiously, she closed the distance between them, reaching out to touch his arm.
Only to be denied as Cassian stepped back.oh shit that must hurt
“Just treat her like a damned person. For my sake. I don’t think that’s too much to ask of you.”
Cassian standing up for his goddess against one of his best friends :(
aww what happens after :(((( I’m hurt I don’t seeing my baby Cassian hurt nor Mor :(
dang nice job at making me sad
“I will find you in the next world - the next life. And we will have that time. I promise.”

Summary: Cassian loves spoiling Nesta.
(Post-bonding. Post-ACOWAR.)
A/N: I just realized I hit over 600 followers? I have no idea why, but I love you all so much. And to show my appreciation, here’s some long overdue Nessian smut—plus a very special surprise I’ll post tomorrow morning.
Cheers.

His mate didn’t like to be coddled.
It was a trait that ran contrary to Cassian’s instincts, which urged him to fuss and dote no matter how much Nesta grumbled about it. She would scowl if he so much as fetched her a glass of water, insisting she was capable of doing it herself.
Cassian had no doubt she was capable. He also had no doubt that her peevishness had less to with his need to give her affection, and more to do with her need to feel in control. It was a need he understood…and respected. And in return for honoring her this way, his mate had given him the two things she would never give freely: her love and her trust.
This also meant that—on very rare occasions—she would allow him to coddle her.
Like now.
Damn! I’ve been craving some good ass Nessian smut for some time now
Favorite parts :)))) GHDFLGJSKDHA
“I suppose I’m at your mercy,” she murmured against his neck as he swept over hills and valleys.
She had said it in her usual dry manner, but there was a softness in her words, a softness she reserved solely for him. this is soft but also hella kinky
“Such a hero,” she said.
It was the note of pride that rang through their bond that told him she wasn’t mocking him. He pulled her close, burying his nose into the crown of her hair, his chest swelling as he breathed in her heady scent. Aww, my son I just wanna hold him and love him and never let him go he deserves Nesta because he deserves to be happy. this is so “awwwwww” my baby
carrying and kissing her all the way to their rooms. this is soft but at the same time I can’t help but thinking about other stuff HDJFKLADF
He wouldn’t do anything without her saying so. this is so important especially because of her past with that Trashcan
This?” He swirled the small bottle of oil in his hand. “This is for you.” Oh, Baby !!!!
He leaned down to suckle on one, and then the other, unable to resist their fullness. listen not to be explicit or anything but this isn’t just ladyboner material this is just Wetness™️ (fuck me)
Enough that they had to use magic to mute the sounds from their bedroom. It thrilled him to no end that she could rival even Rhys when it came to showing her mate just how much he pleased her. Rhys could make mountains tremble. Nesta could rend apart the sky. BITHC IMAGINE IF THEY HAD AN IDK COMPETITION JESUS CHRIST I’m a proud mom
“Turn over, sweetheart,” he whispered. “Turn over for me.” I just this just I fuck yes yes yes please more I am so weak for “________ for me” and he whispered it: I’m dead :)
She didn’t surrender to him this way often and he wanted to relish it. we all know this is because Nesta is a goddess and he the one that worships her I mean I would worship her (also someone draw this like now!)
His mate couldn’t seem to stay still. She squirmed in a way that made him smack her lovely ass. He knew what she was doing, trying to goad him into fucking her—and he would fuck her. He would worship and devour and claim until the both of them soared into the halls of eternal glory. *deep breath is* AHDGLFJGASDGA that smack tho!!!! FUCK!!! and Nesta just ahhh this is my kink this is my kink
His cock was practically straining and he nearly sobbed with relief when she spread herself wide for him. I have now words I’m just gonna like try to breathe (this is gold)
His cock was practically straining and he nearly sobbed with relief when she spread herself wide for him.
He slammed his hips forward, making her hiss and whimper with ecstasy, her breasts bouncing as he drove himself into her—wild and rough and merciless until his cries mixed with hers. A cacophony of lust. A maelstrom of bliss, pure and obliterating, as they raced toward that golden edge of release. Cassian Commander of that puss e (haha)
