    Summary

    “Leanne would help you, if you’d let her,” Micaiah says.

    “And Sothe would die for you, if you let him,” Naesala snaps. “That doesn’t mean you just let it happen, does it?”

    ***

    During the march toward the Tower of Guidance, Micaiah contemplates the future: her own, Sothe's, and Daein's.

    Naesala isn't helping.

    Summary

    Sylvain ropes Felix into a threesome. And then another. And a few more after that. Felix is into it, but tries to pretend he's not.

    ***

     

    Sylvain remembers thinking, after Glenn died and Felix decided that his sword would be his new best friend, "He's grieving right now. But I'll have my friend back soon and then I'll tell him how I feel." And then, after the rebellion, "He's in shock. But I'll have my friend back soon and then I'll tell him how I feel."

     

    Now he knows the truth: He'll never have his friend back. He'll never tell him how he feels.

    Summary

    Dorothea has been placed in Advanced Swordplay even though she's hopeless with swords and Felix has been placed in Advanced Reason even though he's terrible at it. They're struggling.

    Dorothea suggests that they tutor one another. Reluctantly, Felix agrees.

    ***

    "You're wasting your time with Felix," said Sylvain. "A fine, lovely woman like yourself deserves better. Give me a chance. I'll take you dancing. You love dancing, right? Let me show you what a real man is made of." 

    Dorothea responded with a sweet, tinkling laugh. "A real man? Oh, Sylvain. I'd bet money that Felix is ten times better in bed than you are."

    Sylvain's jaw dropped. He began to splutter and finally blurted, "I know for a fact that Felix is a--"

    "Perfectionist?" Dorothea interrupted brightly. And then, in that evil female voice that managed to mix saccharine sweetness and pity in equal measure, "Which you, Sylvain, are most definitely not. Sometimes settling for 'good enough' really isn't good enough."
