Summary
The scout hesitated. “He’s wielding a Hero’s Relic, milady. Are you going to be alright?”
No. Her heart stepped to a frantic, unnerving rhythm just thinking about it. Her magic-worn fingers trembled. Dorothea was overwhelmed by the same fear that haunted her in every battle for the past five years—the same dread that she’d learned to push aside and power through.
Today was no different. “I can neutralize him,” she said, her voice hard with resolve. “Let’s go.”
When Dorothea Arnault spares an old flame on the verge of Adrestia's victory, she finds herself embroiled in a complex political alliance and facing the aftermath of a bloody war head-on. Given an unexpected second chance, Sylvain Gautier shoulders the grief of an entire nation and searches for a reason to keep on living.
Or: that awkward moment when the highest authority in Fódlan orders you to marry your ex.

Summary
They’ve been here before: not the place but the feeling, a nagging sense that things aren’t as they seem. It’s impressive how many words can go unspoken between them when their conversations stretch on for hours, how effortlessly they can talk about nothing and everything all at once.
Right now they’ve fallen into a lull, strolling along the canal—Dorothea watches the moonlight streaking across the water, legs wobbly from dancing and drinking. The past few hours are a blur, but that’s normal for her; this night is nearly indistinguishable from so many others spent flitting from bar to bar, putting on a smile for every admirer who looks her way. What’s less routine is the way she wonders whether she’s growing weary of this, or if Sylvain's exhaustion is simply rubbing off on her.
Dorothea and Sylvain see each other after half a year. There's a lot they've been avoiding talking about.

Summary
“You know,” Claude starts, breaking the awkward silence growing between them, “you could stand to have more faith in the idea that people care about you.”
She wrinkles her nose. “I’m well aware that my allies value me, Claude.”
“I didn’t say value. I said care.”
“I fail to see the difference.”
He sighs, the way one might when trying to explain some nuanced topic to a child. For some reason, she doesn’t immediately lose her temper. “You clearly fail to see a lot of things.”
Dorothea almost dies protecting Claude. He's not one to let a debt go unpaid.

Summary
The Millennium Festival—what year was it again? The days had all blurred together. “That’s…”
“Next month,” Sylvain said.
Oh. “Are you going?”
“I was thinking about it,” he replied. “Garreg Mach isn’t too far from here.”
Dorothea braced for a question she didn’t know the answer to. Will you be there? Then all the little unspoken follow-ups: How bad of a state do you think the monastery is in? Is there even a point? What if some of us didn’t make it?
Instead he asked: “Maybe we could go together?”
Nearly five years into the war, Dorothea is losing sight of what she's fighting for. A chance meeting with an old friend might be the spark she needs to find herself again.

Summary
“Are you here to kill me, Dorothea?”
Recognition sparked in her eyes, mixed with the furious focus of a predator. She lowered her head to the crook of his neck, nudging his head in a way he might have called affectionate in another context. Her lips were soft, of course they were, she was still as perfect as the last day he saw her—and yes, there were the fangs, slender twin points teasing his jugular. In case there was still any question about what she was. “Only if you fight back, Sylvain,” she rumbled, and again—if he’d heard those same words anywhere else, if she was still human, he’d be shivering twice as much as he was right now.
Dorothea Arnault's life is already difficult enough now that she's a vampire. Sylvain Gautier is about to make it infinitely worse.

Summary
Dorothea put on her glitzy red dress, running a brush through her chocolate hair as she prepared to go on stage. During the performance, all of the female singers were required to wear five or six outfits based on the song they were singing. For “Man, I Feel Like a Woman!”, she wore Shania’s tuxedo and lipstick combination; for "I Will Always Love You”, a more muted, down-home look was appropriate.
But for the encore? Only a beautiful red dress and high heels for the leading lady. Especially considering what had happened the night before, Pam Tillis’s “Maybe It Was Memphis” was a perfect song to end off the evening. And the crowd loved it. They loved her voice, they loved her passion, and they clapped as hollered as if she sang to them.
He’d said his name was Sylvain Gautier. She’d never heard that name before – was he French? – and he seemed… pensive, a little angsty and misunderstood like only a trust fund baby could be. He was sexy and mysterious and picked up their tab at the end of the night.
Sylvain and Dorothea meet in Music City, and hit it off. For Sylvain Rarepair Week 2024.

Summary
Cipher laughs breathlessly. "You still couldn't catch me, even if I came with a blaring alarm."
Aglaea’s thumb presses hard against her cheekbone. Her other hand trails down between Cipher’s thighs slowly, savoring the shift in pressure beneath her palm, the way Cipher’s breath catches, how her back arches in invitation despite the bindings.
"I do not need to chase you, Cifera," Aglaea's grip tightens on her jaw. "You skitter to me like an obedient little pet if I so much as offer you a reward."

Summary
“Sure, Princess, let’s put the war aside. Who knows? Maybe this will spawn a beautiful friendship. We can hold hands and sing songs around the campfire, talk about our crushes, maybe even use the buddy system––“
Edelgard groaned. “You’re going to make me regret this, aren’t you?”
“Yep,” said Claude gleefully. He stood and wiped the dirt off his pants. He extended a hand toward her. “Where to now, bestie?”
“Never,” Edelgard’s voice was a dangerous monotone, “call me that again.”
