Eris has spent centuries building connections, finding allies, and pulling the strings from the shadows. What happens if his bargains all start crumbling?

I wonder if these words will come back to haunt Cassian?

"Then go somewhere else."

But he knew there was no other place to go. Not when she had no money, no family beyond this territory. "Be sure to write."

As her mate, Cassian is meant to be Nesta's home, but in HOFAS she just seemed so lost. Like her home had become a place to cage her up and hurt her. Ember seemed more of her home than Cassian did.

Personally, I think Nesta's going to go off on her own to find out why the eight-pointed star was tattooed on her. Maybe she'll write Cassian a little note, "You once told me to go somewhere else. I decided to do it." 🤣

If that happens, I don’t think he’ll make it easy on her. I think he’ll be a little shit over it. Which, to be fair, he’ll have very right to. I think he’s the type of person to say i told you so a billion times in a billion different ways

You know one second I’m loving Nesta x Eris and reading all the fanfics where they end up together. Then I reread acosf and get a harsh reality check.

"We'll see," Cassian said, the portrait of unruffled calm. Nesta nearly snickered as he nodded toward the dagger at Eris's side.

"We have our own ways to protect ourselves against the Crown." Nesta hid her surprise. The weapons she Made shielded against the Trove? No one had told her such a thing.

Eris glowered. "Has this been the plan the whole time? To string me along, make me an enemy of my father, then use the Trove against all of us?"

"You made yourself an enemy of your father," Cassian said, smiling faintly.

"When he finds out, I wonder if he'll let your hounds rip you to shreds, or if he'll do it himself."

Eris paled slightly. "Don't you mean if he finds out?"

Cassian said nothing. Kept his face neutral. Nesta stifled her smugness and did the same.

Eris observed them. For the first time since Nesta had known the male, uncertainty banked the fire in his gaze.

And then he turned toward the other subject in his letter, facing Nesta before he asked, "And my offer for you?" Not one ounce of affection or longing laced his words.

Nesta lifted her chin, smirking at last. "I suppose once we have the Crown in our hands, the Night Court won't need you after all. Neither will I."

Like Nesta, I was rooting for y’all to get together?? What happened to the original plot of the movie? And why did this scene remove itself from my memories??

The Night Court is insufferable I swear. Nesta got a harsh reality check in hofas that she truly wasn’t one of them. Cause if it was anyone else giving that Mask over, they would’ve been celebrated.

And these were Eris’ last words to her:

She could have sworn Cassian was repressing a laugh, but she kept her gaze on Eris, who went rigid, rippling with rage. "I do not appreciate being toyed with, Nesta Archeron. My offer was sincere. Stay with the Night Court and you risk your ruin."

“And before I go…” “Don’t say that!” “Rose…before I go I just wanna tell you,

you were fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.”
