Guys I’m emo Cassian went to the prison with Feyre because he wanted to HELP NESTA
“Cassian casually slid Nesta behind him, his fingers snagging in the skirts of her black gown. As if to reassure himself that she wasn’t in Amren’s direct path. Nesta only rose onto her toes to peer over his shoulder.”
I’m sorry but if that ain’t indicitive of the instincts of a mating bond idk what is
“I smiled as he finally reached the low front gate where Cassian waited, apparently using the momentary delay to stretch out his wings, much to the delight of the half-dozen children now gawking at them.
Amren hissed from the other room, ‘Focus.’”
Sounds like Cassian is distracting more than just school children….
“Panic-and rage. That was all he knew as he shot down the heart of the pit, spearing for that ancient darkness that has once shaken him to his very marrow.
Nesta was there-and Feyre.
It was the former he saw first, stumbling out of the dark, wide-eyed, her fear a tang that whetted his rage into something so sharp he could barely breathe-
She let out a small, animal sound- like some wounded stag- as she saw him. As he landed so hard his knees popped.
He said nothing as Nesta launched herself towards him, her dress filthy and disheveled, her arms stretching for him. He opened his own for her, unable to stop his approach, his reaching…”
He literally thought of Nesta before his High Lady- the one he’s sworn to protect. MATE BOND.
“‘Where is he?’
‘Who?’ Rhys crooned.
‘Cassian.’
I didn’t think I’d ever hear his name from her lips. Cassian had always been him or that one. And Nesta had been… pacing in the foyer.
As if she was worried.”
MATEBONDMATEBONMATEBONDMATEBONDMATEBONDMA-
“Mor just watched as Cassian took Nesta’s slim hand in his own, interlacing their fingers. As he folded in his wings and blindly reached his other hand back toward Mor in a silent order to transport them.
Cassian’s eyes did not leave Nesta’s; nor did hers leave his. There was no warmth, no tenderness on either of their faces. Only that raging intensity, that blend of contempt and understanding and fire.
Rhys began to winnow us again, and just as the dark swept in, I heard Cassian say to Nesta, voice low and rough, “The next time, Emissary, I’ll come say hello.’”
-Page 398, aka the moment my heart began to beat for Nessian
“‘Armies take time to raise,’ Cassian said. ‘You don’t have the luxury of sitting on your ass. You need to rally your soldiers now.’
Beron only sneered. ‘I don’t take orders from the bastards of lesser fae whores….’
‘That bastard,’ Nesta said with utter coolness, though her eyes began to burn, ‘may wind up being the only person standing in the way of Hybern’s forces and your people.’
She didn’t so much as look at Cassian as she said it. But he started at her- as if he’d never seen her before.”
YAAASSS NESTA GO OFF!! DEFEND YOUR MATE!!
“’Something is wrong,’ Nesta insisted.
‘I am not like the others.’ Her throat bobbed. ‘We need to leave.’
‘I can send you back to Velaris, but we have things to discuss here-’
‘I don’t care about me, I-’
The door opened, and Cassian stalked in, face grave. The sight of the wings, the Illyrian armor in this opulent, pink-filled room planted itself in my mind, the painting already taking form, as he said, ‘What’s wrong.’
He studied every inch of her. As if there were nothing and no one else here, anywhere.”
fjkasdjfkejf Cassian is so concerned ugh my heart
“‘I’ve never worn pants,’ was all she said.
I could have sworn concern flashed across Cassian’s features. But he brushed it aside and drawled, ‘I have no doubt you’d start a riot if you did.’
No reaction. Had the Cauldron-
Cassian stepped in Nesta’s path when she tried to walk past him. Put a tan, calloused hand on her forehead. She shook off the touch, but he gripped her wrist, forcing her to meet his stare. ‘Any one of those human pricks makes a move to hurt you,’ he breathed, ‘and you kill them.’”
Can you hear the sounds of my sobs
aND THEN HE GOES ON TO GIVE HER A QUICK-AND-DIRTY TRAINING OF HOW TO KILL A MAN
“'What is that,’ Devlon asked.
Nesta merely stared at him, one hand clamping the edges of her gray cloak together at her chest. One of the other camp-lords made some sign against evil.
‘That,’ Cassian said too quietly, ‘is none of your concern.’”
I’m weak. Be still my Nessian Heart.
Basically all the passages that made me a proud passenger on the Nessian ship 🚢
Cassian said to her, “Nothing can harm you here.” He sucked in a breath, groaning softly, and rose to his feet. Azriel tried to stop him, but Cassian brushed him off and strode for my sister’s side. He braced a hand on the desk when he at last stopped. “Nothing can harm you,” he repeated.
Nesta was still looking at him when she finally shut her eyes. I shifted, and the angle allowed me to see what I hadn’t detected before.
Nesta stood before the map, a fist of bones and stones clenched over it. Cassian remained at her side—his other hand on her lower back.

Wait a second-
At first, it feels like Bokuto says ‘Um…Sure thing’ rather nonchalantly, swept up in the waves of Akaashi’s words, his priority entirely being addressing Akaashi’s emotions in that delicate moment.
But then we discover, that he listened clearly, carefully, to Akaashi’s advice amidst the sobs, and took his words to heart; he set up routines to put himself in the right mindset, cause Akaashi won’t always be there, either.
Koutarou follows Keiji’s advice, even after an intermission of 5 long years
I’ve been feeling really upset ever since code 17 was released. At
the beginning of the manga, we all expected Haru and Akihiko to get
together. We got tons of Haru’s backstory related to Akihiko, but only
recently we got some of Akihiko’s. All we know (and only from his POV),
is that he had a bad experience loving someone: Ugetsu. He doesn’t
really explain why it was bad, he just says it wasn’t what he expected
it to be and that it was very painful. However, Ugetsu does explain what
happened. You’ll remember code 17 in which Mafuyu goes to their place
and Ugetsu gives him some advice on how to improve his musical aspects.
Akihiko leaves for work and Ugetsu spends some more time with Mafuyu
before he leaves as well. They share a conversation in which Ugetsu
confides Mafuyu his true feelings for Akihiko. He tells him they fell in
love in high school, Akihiko moved to his house after some familiar
issues, and they were in a relationship for some time. Now this is my point
of view, you can obviously take it or leave it, but this is what I got
from Ugetsu’s words and memories: he ended his relationship with Akihiko
because he got scared. Throughout their life together, Ugetsu fell so
hard and so deep for Akihiko that he started to be aware of it becoming
toxic. He felt that he was being absorbed by the need he had for Akihiko
to always be around him and support him to the point of losing himself
in it. Ugetsu’s whole identity became a result of his relationship with
Akihiko and that’s why he told him to break up. Again, he got scared
and, in my opinion, it was good. It was the only way Ugetsu found to
stop that toxicity from absorbing him ever further, and even if breaking up with Akihiko didn’t mean he had stopped being in love with him. Nevertheless, he did
make the mistake not to explain Akihiko what he was going through and
Akihiko, logically, assumed Ugetsu didn’t love him anymore. They agreed
on keep on living together even if they weren’t in a relationship
anymore and they both tired to move on unsuccessfully. Ugetsu kept
seeing other people and so Akihiko did, even if it was painful for both
of them. But now that everything got screwd up after Akihiko found
Ugetsu in bed with other guy (which he had let Akihiko know previously,
mind us all) and they ended up punching each other, everything seems to
have been turned around. Akihiko goes to Haru’s place and forces him to
have sex with him, I guess in some kind of frustration impulse, even
though he knows Haru is madly in love with him and obviously doesn’t
want anything to happen with Akihiko like this. He reproaches Haru for
running away from him even when he knows Haru is in love with him and
ends up crying. It’s evident Akihiko is in pain,
he’s just in pain because of the wrong reasons, because he thinks
everyone avoids him, becasue he thinks no one truly wants to stick with
him, and becasue he thinks no one cares about his feelings. Let’s
now talk about code 22. Akihiko and Haruki are watching the hanabi and,
guess what Akihiko says, more or less, to Haruki. He says
he was only just “a fuck-buddy cum gigolo” and they “didn’t have a real
relationship". I got so mad. So mad. As I said before, ever since
Akihiko cried over how hurt he was, it seems that things are turning on
his side. But I wonder if anyone remembers the many times Akihiko
screwed things up with Haruki, being fully aware of his feelings for
him. If anyone remembers he literally teased him by letting himself fall
on top him on Haru’s bed that one time they got drunk celebrating the
band’s fisrt live concert and ended up in Haru’s apartment. If anyone
remembers Akihiko skipped rehearsal and spoke with Haru over the phone
while some random woman was blowing him and moaning Akihiko’s name. Does
anyone remember Ugetsu crying alone in his car and saying “I like
Akihiko to the point of dying”? We all saw it, we all read it. So what I
want to say with all this is, don’t make any judgements yet. I’m not
saying one of them is a saint and the other one is the devil. I’m just
saying that we should wait before assuming Akihiko is right when he’s
speaking out of grief. Personally, and to make this a way for you
guys to reflect on this whole thing, I don’t think this is the face of
someone who thinks of Akihiko as “just a fuck-buddy cum gigolo”.
akaashi on the inside: sees bokuto one (1) time and falls INSTANTLY in love then makes significant life decisions because of him, willingly spends all day with him even though he’s in a different year and kind of exhausting, is a certified bokutologist, top of his field, would drop ANYTHING if bokuto needed him, would genuinely hang the moon, stars, cosmos, universe for him
akaashi on the outside: bokuto-san… he’s difficult at times, but an incredible ace :)
also akaashi when he’s overwhelmed: i just have to toss to my star :”) <333
but i can feel so much despair that it wrings tears out of my eyes
i just wanna give him a hug
but Furudate-sama is god and he does one better
we all think Akaashi is the one who knows Bokuto the best, but if you turn that on its head, Bokuto is also the one who knows Akaashi the best
and in light of his thoughts going in the direction of “If only I were more like Kageyama or Miya Atsumu” [more on that darling, you do know that Kags looks up to you so hard right? guess not] Bokuto reminds him the most important thing between them
unflinching trust
Akaashi’s has his work cut out for himself in that he has to do a lot of things in order to showcase that trust he has on Bokuto. Holding the team together while Bokuto has his slump. Pulling Bokuto out of it when he has to. But he does all this because of his trust on Bokuto’s potential and ability to win them their games
Now it’s Bokuto’s turn to reciprocate by saying, “Hey you. This is just another match. No match we’ve played before, we played ”not to lose” but so that we “win”. So let’s just do what we usually do, without overthinking things. this is just another match. one that we play to win. so “get off the court for a bit, calm down and come back soon” [ as Bokuto is a WS, you have the option of not tossing to him for a few rallies, but that’s not possible for a Setter as they touch the ball once almost every rally ]
