Bone

Bloom

Like the second half of the Book of Breathings sang:

Life and death and rebirth

Sun and moon and dark

Rot and bloom and bone

•

Love me, touch me, sing me.

•

And as Feyre concluded, this was Chaos. The force the Princes of Hel would never defile with violence.

For @elriel-month 𝔻𝕒𝕪 27: 𝕋𝕠𝕦𝕔𝕙

"𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑦’𝑑 𝑒𝑥𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑑 𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑠, 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑐𝑐𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑏𝑟𝑢𝑠ℎ 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑠..."

Before there was "blatant, unrestricted touching", Elain and Azriel shared many quiet moments alone, walking through the gardens or sitting together in the peace and quiet of nature. Touch is not something Azriel is comfortable with many people, he hides his hands and avoids touching others for fear of seeing their disgust at his scars. However, from the very beginning of their 2.5 years of friendship, Elain never balked from him or his touch. That first day in the Townhouse, when he offered her his arm to show her the garden, Elain took it, looked at his hands and called them beautiful. From that moment on, Azriel kept reaching out, taking every opportunity to seek her touch.

This beautiful, Regency era inspired piece was created by talented artist pinkykei.art (in) who captured the essence of that blooming attraction and tenderness between Elain and Azriel. Thank you for bringing to life the scene stuck in my head.

antis: so it’s multiple stories and multiple couples

the cover page: one story, in four movements

antis: so confirmed multi-POV with multiple stories and romances

Here’s the full post! https://www.tumblr.com/tealeaves-and-rosepetals/703730696313864192/elain-is-connected-to-the-harp-the-harp-is

(I have never been deeply involved in theories here, so this was just a random collection of my thoughts after an ACOTAR reread, and I’m sure many others have come to the same conclusions I did. I don’t claim any of this to be novel or groundbreaking—it’s just what was easily picked up during my reread.)

Also, I literally just posted a chapter of my fic featuring Elain using the Harp last week!! 🪉

It makes sense that SJM’s 💖🎶💖 was a less spoilery version of 💖🪉💖 since they’re clearly still locking down all info about this book.

As a bonus, Azriel is also connected to a symphony.

I’m betting that we’ll see him showing Elain how he can also deliver a symphony of pleasure in ACOTAR 6-8!! 🥵🥰

Btw, Acotar 6:

Comm by: me

My mind has been swirling with the various clues we’ve been given (can’t be helped, I love clues). Sarah joked about being inspired by the mystical vortex in Montana. What came out surprised her, and offered various insight into things. The story that came out demanded time and space, explaining why it is so long. She had a vision from the start of what it would be and how she would deliver it to us. And so now, when we think about a story told in four movements (something that may be inspired by classical music like a symphony), what we might see is a poetic progression that feels like…

Prophecy.

A dream given form, like the Völuspá (meaning prophecy of the völva, a term for seer, wise woman, witch) in Norse mythology, as both @merymoonbeam and I have discussed. The Völuspá is a vision of life and death and rebirth that involves the gods and mortals and earth.

Völva used songs in their rituals to travel outside of their bodies and influence fate, which might have inspired the trance Nesta entered during the dusk ritual in acosf. They were also believed to able to touch, shift, bind, and unbind the threads of fate. While the dusk ritual involved singing, Gwyn suggests dawn rituals might involve a set of ancient movements instead.

This is my last commission for this year’s Elriel Month and I personally think it is a very special one! I love a good modern Elriel AU and I love how cute this one is! Our grumpy bat boy likes to pretend he doesn’t want his photo taken, but he’ll happily allow it when his Elain is the photographer. 💙🩷

With all 3 of us being big Genshin Impact fans, the idea of @elain_kingslayer and I commissioning my beloved @luxury_banshee for this piece. For @elriel-month , we wanted to have Elain as a Dendro catalyst user, and Azriel as cryo polearm since it just fits them so perfectly! They would fit in soooo well with Teyvat, honestly. Coming up with this art was soooooo fun, the biggest shoutout to my wonderful and amazing friends for collaborating on such a stunning and perfect piece! We can’t wait to see how the both of them will overcome their challenges and obstacles in the upcoming books.
