I am desperate for a Nesta fic where her sisters end up learning the full extent of her abuse, from the SA, to the grooming, to the physical abuse, and see it for the horror it is. Only, when they inevitably try to rebuild their relationship with Nesta, she doesn't let them. Initially. Like she's iced them out so thoroughly, she won't even see them. Maybe because she doesn't believe they care, or she doesn't see it as abuse, maybe she thinks she deserves it.? Idk.
I want to see the sisters struggling, taking steps back for every few forward and lashing out at each other. I want there to be some tension between Feyre & Elain and Emerie and Gwyn, because of how close the later are to Nesta, and how well they understand her on the Archeron sisters part, but out of protectiveness of Nesta on the Valkyrie's part. And more tension with the IC, with Feyre, Elain and the Valkyries blocking them from trying to use Nesta's trauma for their benefit, or blame her or anything else. Let's see Feyre actually see the IC, or parts of them, for who they are. Let her desire to protect Nesta and make amends with her sisters put strain on her relationship with her found family. In a 'words that can never be taken back, changed the friendship forever' kind of way.
I just want the sisterly reconciliation to be the slowest of slow burns. I want it messy, and hard, and full of each of them learning that they deserve better than what they were given, acknowledging their roles in harming each other, not just Nesta. Like, think Feyre pushing the Lucine thing, Elain being a bitch to Nesta when she visited her in the HOW, and even how they react to the Kelpi. Like, Feyre's been SAed before, by her husband. Let the girls help each other recognise abuse, and trauma, and perhaps see a therapist.
But in the end, I want Feyre and Nesta to ride for Nesta as hard her stans do. I want them clocking the BS when they see it, from each other, from Cassina, from the rest of the IC. All of it. And I want them understanding the true meaning of family, even if what they become isn't what they thought family was meant to be. I beg of you, someone please write this.
Side note: I don't give two shits about Cassian here. He can die. Or live. Or fuck off to Illyria. Feyre and Elain should get a few good hits in before that though.
