    Summary

    “Wait.” Felix’s world starts to shift on its axis. “What does this have to do with me?”

    There is a terrible pause. As each quiet second ticks on, the answer to that question grows devastatingly obvious—a shitty punchline to the world’s stupidest joke.

    “Felix,” Mercedes starts carefully, very carefully, “you’re the one he’s in love with.”

    -

    Sylvain gets doused with a love potion. Felix handles it REALLY well.

    Summary

    “This is wrong,” Jayce rasped, his voice strained with torment, so unlike the Jayce that had left mere hours ago to dance and drink and make merry and maybe even make love to the beautiful Mel Medarda. “This is too far back, I shouldn’t be here—”

    This Jayce was like a wild animal, bearded and shaggy, furious and heartbroken.

    The huge weapon thudded to the floor once again, and Viktor finally dared to speak.

    “Jayce, is that… you?”

    Stewing in his loneliness, research assistant Viktor witnesses an Anomaly take place in the laboratory he shares with Jayce Talis, potentially altering life as they know it (or might never come to know).

    Summary

    The history books don’t tell her as much as she hopes. Oh, they tell her facts and figures, but it’s so impersonal that they don’t mean anything. His name was Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd; he was known as the Savior King; they ruled Fódlan together until their deaths. It doesn’t tell her what they were to one another; it doesn’t tell her how she felt. And the movies are worse, filled to the brim with glorified action scenes and overblown love stories that make her cringe. None of it fits, perhaps because they focus so much on the spectacle that it detracts from the real moments she lived. Her memories aren’t full of dramatic speeches or glorious battles or gazing off into the distance.

    Byleth remembers the rain.

    -

    Byleth leaves her job and life in the city behind to move to Garreg Mach without really knowing why. As she starts to explore this sleepy town halfway across the continent, she begins to remember parts of her past life and reconnect with the reincarnations of the people she once knew. However, the love of her life is nowhere to be found - not in her memories or among the people around her.

    Written for the FE3HAU Big Bang.
