    Summary

    Then the Alliance delegation shows up, and their offering strolls through the gates of the monastery like he already owns the place.

    A reminder, for those who need it: Cyril is not an idiot. He has good eyes and he uses them.

    An observation, for those who want it: The Golden Deer house leader is Almyran.

    ~

    Cyril knows a lot more than he lets on, Claude is far less covert than he thinks he is, and messing with the guy your parents told you was a possibly-unkillable demon-prince isn’t usually supposed to earn you a lasting friendship but hey… life is already pretty damn weird.

    A masterclass on Cyril, Claude and the complex call between two countries and home and family. Stunning. Well worth your time.

    Summary

    Her father never approved of her skills at the card table - said it wasn't honest work. Not like killing people for money, she supposed.

    (Byleth has to hustle on the side to fund the Golden Deer's tea addiction; Claude finds the class checkbook and realizes that the math doesn't add up. A retelling of the GD route that slowly diverges from canon, starting with a game of poker.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Clever.

    The world that Recipe has built here is intricate and layered and the tiniest details from the early chapters matter come the end. This fic takes you on a ride, and at the end you're breathless, gasping and grinning.

    Highly recommended.

    Summary

    “You know,” Sylvain muses, “this would all be a lot easier if we just got married.”

    She barely manages to avoid knocking her head against the wall from how quickly she whips her neck around to stare down at him. “Excuse me?”

    The grin on his face is boyish again, playful. “You heard me.”

    “Yes, I did in fact hear you but I’d like for you to repeat it on the account of the fact that I cannot believe you said it.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is the clearest I've ever heard Ingrid's "voice" in a fiction. I can hear her speaking, and everyone is so in character, so good, and a brilliant premise

    Summary

    He’s clever, they always said, which really meant don’t trust him. But when Claude pieced apart his walls to let someone inside they were always surprised to find that he wasn’t the snake they’d been expecting. He was ambitious, of course, but ambition in the hands of good men is a blessing, not a curse. And when he described the tenets of his vision for the future it was easy to believe that clever was simply a synonym for kind.

    He’ll betray you, they said, already sitting in his palms, but when he drew his hands into fists to crush them they still bothered to cry out, why?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I don't think I will ever be able to read this again. But if I do, it will be all in one sitting as I desperately turn page to page to page as the day passes me by and creeps in to dawn.

    It grips you like that.

    And it hurts and leaves you reeling before putting you back together again as someone new.

    There's a power in names. Subtle, Sharp and Dangerous lives up to its own.

    A Total Eclipse of Rationality by

    Summary

    Stupid thoughts like "if she were on our side, Hilda and Leonie wouldn't let her get away with not sleeping" started running through his mind. Dangerous thoughts. He'd already fucked up once by musing to her aloud a whimsy about her having picked him over Dimitri. She'd played that off with grace and a sad, but fond stare. His wounded ego throbbed at the thought of ripping his chest open again before her. And besides...it would be incredibly selfish of him to make her fragile state about him.

    "Say, Byleth. Could I perhaps interest you in playing hooky with me tonight? I've gotta bottle of vintage wine with our names on it. And it would be nice to catch up a bit before we head our separate ways."

    -----

    After the Battle of Derdriu, Claude spends one last night with the professor he had been so mystified with and has one more plea for her.
