    "Have you been listening to Catherine's pick-up lines?" giggles Mercedes. "They're not very effective, you know."

    Her head feels too heavy for her neck, so she lets it droop. "I've got some of m'own."

    "Is that so?" says Mercedes, teasingly. "Let's hear it, then."

    Or, Ingrid gets drunk and tries to pick-up Mercedes. She's terrible at it.

    Summary

    "How are you so brave all the time? I cried because a bird flew too close when I was sketching. But y-you, you don't hesitate, ever. Even when you left Brigid, even when we were outnumbered on the battlefield, and even now, when so many of your people look to you for guidance… I just… How?"

    The silence that followed was broken by a laugh.

    "That does not mean I am not scared, my sweet lamb."

    Summary

    In the end, Edelgard remembers precisely three things about her first meeting with Monica:

    1. Monica turned down all the sweets that had been set out for guests, but said she would eat them in a heartbeat “if Edelgard wanted her to”.
    2. When Edelgard complimented Monica on her hairstyle, Monica sputtered and spilled her entire cup of tea on her own lap.
    3. The way her stare embraced her when Monica thought she wasn’t looking.

    Dimitri and his friends have been a tight knit team since they were children, but this year they’ve had to scrounge up figure skaters and old rivals to just barely fill out their ranks. The only thing they hope can salvage their ragtag excuse for a hockey team is their new coach--former Olympic star Byleth Eisner.
    But the hockey life is filled with epic highs and lows, and Byleth finds that the lines between coach and therapist and team and family are very fine ones indeed.
