Something to smile about.

Gwyn and Azriel stumble across Rhys as they leave for their date.

Gwynriel with a dash of Gwynsand - 700 words

For @lulling-night-sky who is a sucker for fluff and anything that has to do with Rhysand (except my fics where he gets beaten up)

“Ready?” Azriel asked Gwyn after having gaped at her in awe for a while.

Gwyn beamed, her heart fluttering at how flustered she had – not for the first time – rendered the usually stoic Spymaster, and nodded excitedly.

She had been looking forward to this moment for the entire day. Even as she had fed and played with Nyx, her thoughts had kept going back to Azriel and their upcoming evening together.

Having happily agreed to spend the day looking after the little lord with Nesta at the River House so that his parents could focus on their duties, Gwyn had decided to bring everything that she would need and get ready for her date with Azriel here instead of asking someone to winnow or fly her back to the House of Wind. Besides, Emerie and her had spent so much time here with the inner circle that the High Lord and Lady always had a guest room reserved for them.

She took the hand that Azriel offered and followed him from the bottom of the staircase to the foyer. From the living area, she heard the voices of Nesta and Cassian who was enthusiastically responding to the prattling of Nyx, as well as Feyre who had returned while Gwyn was stressing out over whether to put her hair up or leave it down.

She had gone with the third option proposed by Nesta to tie the top half up with a pretty silver hair stick gifted to her by Emerie for Solstice. The best thing about it was the thin dagger hidden inside that could potentially come in handy. She might be going out with one of deadliest – and most handsome – male alive, but she was still a Valkyrie who loved daggers, especially when they were disguised as pretty accessories.

“You are breathtaking.”

Gwyn blushed from his compliment. Emerie and Nesta were right about the fact that her little black dress was the ideal choice. It was also a perfect match to Azriel’s entirely black attire.

“So are you, Shadowsinger.”

His answering smile almost made her trip on her own feet. He brought their intertwined hands to his lips and kissed her knuckles.

Azriel opened the door and started to leave when another set of footsteps was heard coming their way. Looking to her left, Gwyn saw Rhysand strolling towards them with his hands in his pockets, no doubt having completed his work for the day and ready to reunite with his mate and son.

“Bye Rhys.” She waved a hand at him.

Gwyn still couldn’t believe how close they have become over the past few years. Sometimes they were a High Lord and a Valkyrie who worked together for the well-being of those they cared for, other times they were confidants who listened and offered support. Sometimes they were like protective siblings who looked out for each other, oftentimes they were the type of siblings who teased and pestered the other. But at the core of all these versions of them were mutual respect and care. The kind of bond that Gwyn never thought that she would ever have. None of the relationships that she had forged so far had been expected, yet they were all precious in their own way.

“Be home by midnight,” he ordered, pursing his lips to stop the smile that was threatening to break on his lips. His violet eyes sparkled like the first stars that had started to appear in the sky. Azriel snorted at the curfew that his brother was imposing on Gwyn.

“Fuck off.” She rolled her eyes. “You’re not my father.”

Rhys crossed his arms and puffed his chest. The arrogant asshole, she thought.

“I’m old enough to be.”

Gwyn laughed. She squeezed Azriel’s hand and dragged him out of the door, eager to finally be alone with him.

“You’re old enough to be the cauldron’s father,” she shouted at Rhys before slamming his own door shut in his face.

Countryside memories about summer 2024. Bicycle. Excellent, by the way, I ride with sand, and countryside roads. Under the feet - it is sand. Stone. Even asphalt. And around - it is field.

Hi, Everyone!Let's do this fun challenge together!

What's a Broken Phone Challenge?

It's like a game of telephone, but instead of whispering in your ear, you get a super blurry image and have to draw what you think it is before it is send on to the next artist in line, who gets your equally blurred artwork to make their own interpretation.

Each participating artist will be given a two weeks timeframe to finish their artwork, before it is send on.

Pairings: Destiel & Reed900

Theme: Beginnings

>>SIGN UP FORM<<

All participants are welcome and encouraged to join the "Artsy Streamers" Discord Server for updates and additional fun. (If you decide against joining for whatever reason, make sure to check your mail often!)

🎨  Interpret the blurred artwork in your style

🎨  You can take liberties, but still stay true to what you (think you) see and the Pairing

🎨 No NSFW art Interpretation's allowed (this time)

🎨  You have to finish your artwork in two weeks, there will be no Check-In

🎨  If you struggle with your timeframe please tell Klayr as soon as you can, so adjustment's can be made

🎨  AI-Art is not allowed.

🎨  It's possible to sign up for both pairings (Fill in the Sign-Up two times)

🎨  At the end of the challenge, a masterpost will be posted on Klayr's social Medias with the compilation of all art-chains. A small version of your art will be included and you will be tagged accordingly!

🎨  After the challenge has finished and the compilation image has been posted you can post your art on social media!

🎨  If you have any questions you can ask in the discord server  or send Klayr a dm

🎨  Have fun!

Other things to know:

The Starting Artist will be randomly selected. Before the start of phase 1, everybody will be contacted to confirm they are okay with the timeframe they will be given.

If there are more then 7 participants (per pairing) multiple groups will be formed. (That can have an impact on how many phases there will be and when the challenge will end. If everything changes, information will be send around accordingly!)

After finishing your Art, you will send it back to the Mods, and they will blur it and send it on. So neither you know who will draw your artwork, nor will the person after you know who made their blurry inspiration.
