    Summary

    Ie, if a hallmark movie featured ferdibert.

    Summary

    "I've met the author of the novel," said Ferdinand. "A truly talented woman. Guess what she told me? She said the protagonist of the story is based on me!"

    Hubert huffed. "No wonder those praises for the hero are so shallow. She never met you; you are but a vision to her, a concept which allowed her to produce all her fantasies. She understands nothing about you."

    "And you can say much more profound praises for me, is that it?" Ferdinand laughed. "Just like that time when we were having tea, and you suddenly started talking about my honesty and love for learning. I got goosebumps all over me!"

    Hubert shifted away his gaze. "I know you, at least."

    "Well, why don't you prove yourself? The next competition will be about poetry, and you did promise to write me your praises in letters."

    Summary

    There are only two residents in the Garreg Mach infirmary, and both of them are model patients.

    One has a room without windows. He is very quiet, speaking only when spoken to, and hardly even then. He admits no visitors, though there are none to admit.

    One has a room overlooking the gardens, and every morning the nurse cracks open the window so sweet spring can slip inside. He spends most days with his face turned to the sun, as if it calls to him, as if he calls it home to feast on his kindling. The visitors flow through as a babbling brook, and no one ever thinks him silent, though his words all brittle and bold shatter at a touch.

    You are healing well, says the nurse, and the residents laugh in their separate rooms: there is no healing from this.


    Hubert draws down the sun, but he is not the one who burns. [Autotomy prelude, Hubert pov, The Incident & its Aftermath]

    Summary

    The letter looks deceptively innocent. A rose-coloured, perfumed envelope of pricey cardstock embossed with a delicate golden filigree. No seal, no sender’s address, just Hubert’s own name written in an elegant, swooping script across the back.

    Summary

    During their first encounter with the Death Knight, Ferdinand von Aegir makes a mistake that nearly costs his life. In an effort to repent for it, he wants to learn how to heal, and he is not the only one. His choices bring him closer to his classmates, especially the one he would have liked to avoid.
    Meanwhile, Hubert struggles with the fact that he has a heart that is capable of fondness.

    War is perhaps the worst time to come to terms with one's romantic inclinations and Ferdinand has to stumble before he can learn to embrace it.
    Hubert is watching this change from a distance, yearning, but never quite selfish enough to confess to his feelings.

    Summary

    On the first day of a cold and rather lonely Christmas, Ferdinand’s friend Dorothea downloaded the Tinder app for him in the hopes of helping him find his Prince charming. Twelve days later, Ferdinand would realize that Dorothea’s reasoning was rather more sound that he would have liked to admit. Why twelve days later exactly, you ask? Well, it is a rather surprising story. A Christmas miracle of sorts, that brought our dashing protagonist Ferdinand von Aegir twelve days of Christmas firsts that he never could have predicted.

    Summary

    Whenever anyone seems to need something from Hubert, they always ask Ferdinand to do it. He isn't entirely certain why.

     “I thought Bernadetta was just being her normal scared self, and Linhardt I thought was being lazy. But you -- you are not lazy, and you do not fear Hubert. So why do I have to ask him?”

     Dorothea stole another potato with a laugh. “It isn’t about fear. Hubert just always listens to you, is all. Sure, he might grumble a bit, but he always seems to end up doing what you ask him to. I don’t know what it is about you. Must be those pretty eyes of yours.”

    Summary

    Edelgard does have to admit it’s probably a decently comical sight. The emperor of all of Fodlan in her full regalia, the spymaster of Adrestia and notoriously merciless enforcer of the emperor’s will, and the Ashen Demon and bearer of The Creator’s Sword, pouring over a book on love.

    She also has to admit not one of them has a clue what they’re doing.

    Or Fodlan’s most fearsome trio assist each other in the trials and tribulations of courtship.

    Summary

    Of all of Ferdinand von Aegir’s more vexing qualities, the worst is this— the man has absolutely no idea of the effect he has on other people.

    The Albinean ambassador gifts Ferdinand a ludicrous amount of coffee. And that is only where Hubert's problems concerning the Prime Minister begin.

    Summary

    Ferdinand was a general. In theory. Edelgard had promised him continued command of his battalion, and a general needed a certain measure of wealth to supply his horses, his servants, his armor and rations and lodgings and, she’d promised.

    But his father sat rotting in a cell, or worse, and it could be nothing more than a fable they thought him simple enough to believe. What did promises matter?


    When the house of Aegir collapses around him, Ferdinand struggles to forge a path forward. He quickly discovers he can't manage it alone -- and neither, perhaps, can Edelgard.
