    Summary

    Claude promised everyone a celebration to end all celebrations if they defeated Nemesis, and he kept his word. [...]
    Byleth happily savoured the food, all the while ensuring she stayed perfectly sober. Wine, after all, would not quench her real thirst, a yearning that lurked at the back of her mind since that morning, when she and Claude made a promise.

    Having finally defeated Nemesis and ended the war, Byleth and Claude finally get some much needed "alone time".

    Summary

    Waking up in a body that isn't your own is an understandably distressing experience. Claude knows he should be upset, or concerned, or worried. He can't seem to feel anything, though. Not even his heartbeat.

    The first time Claude woke up as someone else, he dismissed it as a dream. The second time, he again dismissed it as a weird reoccurring dream. By the third time, there was no denying that he and Byleth were switching bodies at night. Right? Either that, or he had finally cracked.

    Summary

    “And you will be King?” She asked only because she could imagine no other title for him. She always thought he had the bearings of one: uncommon, ignoble, passively imperious.

    “My position abroad prevents me from claiming that title,” Claude said. “Which is why you—the Ashen Demon, Hero of Fódlan, the Enlightened One—will be Queen. Then, when I return you will marry me. It will make us the most powerful rulers the world has ever known.”

    “If I were to say no—”

    “Which you’ve indicated you will not.” His hand waved.

    "If I said no, would you have crowned another in my place?"

    "No." Claude's eyes simmered: something weary boiled alive at the bottom, the rising heat too slow to promote the panic, yet the will to live went unchecked. He looked like he had tried to check it. "Why?"

    Claude and Byleth, both desperately in love and unable to believe they are a person capable of being loved, create the most powerful marital union in history.

    And the most frustrating.
