    Summary

    “White magic, it directs life, mends it, wills it to stand again. It’s warm, can you feel it, dear?” Her mother had once said. “Wield with great care, because you will be a beacon of comfort when the fight brings the cold, attracting both your friends and your foes.”

    A decade and a bit more had to pass before Mercedes could grasp the meaning of her mother’s words: in the battlefield, thieves and Imperial soldiers alike spotted the staff in her hands and converged towards her to stop her magic from reaching her allies forever. Her friends, they all gravitated towards her, limping and wincing, circling around her with their shields, as she would call upon the flow of the ether around her and close their wounds.

     

    Or, the Blue Lions through the years, gravitating towards each other in this cold harsh world, and how Mercedes' room becomes the headquarter for a big cuddling pile.

    (Based on how Mercedes' room has multiple chairs put together in a circle.)

    I have been very reluctant to dive into any story setting where Edelgard was victorious.

    But this? Tie bricks around my feet and toss me overboard, because this is absolutely rich with depth.

    Summary

    When Annette’s entire escort is slaughtered in an Empire ambush, she barely escapes with the help of a now-dead friend. She has no one to turn to when the lone sellsword she approaches refuses her when she can’t pay him, only for him to quickly change his mind.

    But a continent is a long distance to cross when an assassin dogs their every step, and for Felix it may just be a job, but for Annette it can very well be her life.

    Summary

    Three years have passed since the events of Mercenary. Byleth has settled in to her position as General of the Coalition army, doing her best to stay neutral between the factions as the war plays out around them in a game of spies. To the north, sightings of Cornelia grow in frequency. To the south, a dark ploy continues to rile the people of Hrym against Duke Aegir. And now their agents report that Kronya is afield once more.

    In the midst of all this, Brigid calls for aid and bargains to join the Coalition. Byleth sets out to answer them and, seeing an opportunity, the Leader of the Alliance goes with her…

    Just fantastic prose. Maddy has a knack for setting up kicker lines just right. If this is anything like Mercenary I'm going to adore it.

    Summary

    The first time Annette went to Rodrigue's—a quiet bar in the heart of downtown—she had expected tasty beverages and a cozy atmosphere. What she hadn’t expected was Felix Fraldarius, the surly, sharp-tongued bartender with an unexpected interest in music. With university entrance exams looming, Annette knows she cannot afford to lose her focus. Yet the more she studies at Rodrigue’s, the more it seems she might have stumbled upon an interest of her own… musical and otherwise.

    It is one thing to live a hundred different lives, and another thing entirely to remember them.

    Summary

    Flayn sleeps, for a long, long time, across the centuries. Seteth waits for her to wake up. There is a little more to it than that, however.

    The legends about the Saints, Seteth could tell you, are not exactly accurate. Cichol's so called Holy Pilgrimage after the final battle of the War of Heroes was not that brave and noble of a prowess.

    Or, Cichol sets out on a journey and forgets a dozen of lifetimes, in a desperate search for the family he lost.

    Summary

    Someone else is still up.
    Felix frowns.
    He doesn’t know why the idea bothers him so much, but it does. Maybe it’s because that means someone else is still awake, still working, when he’s calling it a night.
    He came to Garreg Mach to make himself the worst thing on the battlefield. He’s supposed to have a head start. Yet someone’s already keeping pace.

    (OR: Annette and Felix's support scenes made me die a thousand deaths, and now I want to fill in the blanks.)

    "Wash feels Church behind every hit, swing and weave, refining angles and force like a dance. And Church catches Wash at pace right along with him, changing tactics like it’s an old song he sings along to. And, for a minute, they think: This is it. This is what it was supposed to be."

    The mercs force Epsilon back into Wash's head, and several subsequent days of That Happening. Featuring: daring escapes, two people trying really hard not to mess each other up any more than they already are, and Chorus as Space Australia.

    Summary

    "'What would you ask for?'

    Annette considered this question for a moment. She supposed if she was actually up in the Tower, she would feel like she had to make her wish worthwhile, to make it count. World peace or eternal happiness or something like that. But she wasn’t at the top of a tower, she was down here, sitting in the grass. And unless she had a habit of eavesdropping, the goddess probably wasn’t listening to her.

    But Felix was."

     

    Chapter 9, Blue Lions route. A three-parter about the dance and the Goddess Tower and the various hijinks that come along with that. Typical sappy shipping with a side order of Remire Village trauma.
