    Summary

    Byleth has experienced much in her lifetime. Much more than any normal human would experience in their lifetime. But Byleth was no ordinary human. As the vessel of the Goddess, she has been forced to experience the war many times over. She's become sick of seeing death and destruction, wishing to end the cycle of pain by preventing the war altogether, no matter what the cost. Even if it meant getting close to the monster who would start the war herself.

    NG+ fic, in which Byleth has experienced the Blue Lions and Golden Deer routes, acting as a way to look into Byleth as a character and her relationship with Edelgard. Also, please dear lord read the tags. There will be spoilers, blood, death, and more as time goes on. It's M for a reason.

    Summary

    “Edelgard? What is that little plant?”

    Edelgard pauses, one eyebrow quirked. Violet eyes flit from Byleth to the mysterious plant, dangling just above her head.

    “Why, it’s mistletoe Professor.”

    Summary

    Two years after the reunification of Fódlan, the Emperor's crown no longer adorns Edelgard's head. Yet through all her pride, her heart weighs heavy.

    Heavy from the years stolen from her.

    Heavy from the blood that's been spilled.

    And heavy from the ring yet to make its way onto Byleth's hand.

    Summary

    Since when was she such a mess? It wasn’t like Byleth was the first attractive person she’d ever seen. Hell, she’d had crushes before. But this woman, she was just too hot. There was something about her face and her arms and her neck. There was something about the way she managed to look like a model in her uniform polo and apron. It was distracting and downright irresponsible. What if Edelgard had been driving when she had seen her? It would’ve been a tragedy.

     

    Also known as: Edelgard has a massive crush on the hot barista and doesn't know what to do with herself.

    Summary

    "Professor?” Edelgard is flushed as you pull away, nearly as red as her armor that lies discarded on the floor, and her eyes gaze up at you, heavy-lidded and hazy. “Are you all right?”

    “I don’t think so,” you reply, calmly. “I think I might be having a heart attack.”

    In the flurry of panic that follows for the next several minutes, you learn three things: 1. Small as she is, Edelgard is apparently strong enough to throw you over her shoulder and sprint to the medical wing within seconds, 2. Having Physic cast on you when you’re not actually dying makes you feel very queasy, and 3. You weren't having a heart attack, you were just stupidly in love.

    Or:

    Byleth isn’t used to having a heartbeat. Especially one that behaves so erratically whenever Edelgard is nearby.

    Summary

    "If you met her you would understand. There's no way. She's too obnoxious. It feels like she's always lying even when she's saying easily verifiable facts that I know are true. Rhea could text me “good morning” and I would have to look out the window to check if the sun was out."

    or, store manager Edelgard deals with a problem customer and accidentally catches the attention of the most annoying double-texter on the planet.

    Summary

    She thought of all the ways it could have gone wrong. How much she had lost. How much more she could have lost. Not just kingdoms. Worse than nations. What she clung to -- a dog worrying a bone, lock-jawed and drowning -- but what still slipped away.

    Summary

    “So what’s the truth, Edie? What’s going on between you and the Captain?”
    It would be hard to deny that she and Byleth were close. They lived on the same floor, took a class together, and Edelgard was always invited to all the Fencing parties off campus because of her. She came to Edelgard’s room to study, and they drank tea together late at night chatting about anything and everything.
    And Edelgard had a huge, unavoidable crush on her.
    And if she had her way, Byleth would never find out.

    Summary

    Byleth liked to think that she was a responsible person. Level-headed. Calm. Logically, Byleth knew that if she wanted all that she wanted to accomplish, to bring about Edelgard’s bright new world, she needed to be careful, herself. And she was. Usually. However, something about Edelgard made all reason go flying out the window.

    Or the three-ish times Byleth was incredibly reckless and the one time she might have been just reckless enough.

    (Edelgard disagrees.)

    Summary

    The rain comes down softly now, a gentle whisper, a hush. Byleth stands in the center of it, eyes closed and arms outstretched, as the rain falls on her upturned face. The water is cool but the air is warm, heavy with the feel of spring, and Byleth smiles to feel the contrast on her skin.

    She feels so alive.

    Or:

    Byleth leaves the infirmary to visit the gardens. Edelgard goes looking for her.
