Summary:

the perfect plan: sylvain (the ideal best friend!) sets felix and dimitri up on a date - a blind date, so they'll actually agree to go. on the date, they realise their feelings for each other. they get together and live happily ever after. sylvain no longer has to listen to felix's angry pining. it's flawless - literally nothing can go wrong.

except, wait - dimitri is an idiot, and felix is felix. okay. back to square one.

heyy how was the date :) Hello Sylvain. Thank you for organising a ‘blind date’ for me. Unfortunately, the person you sent must have been busy, as it seems they couldn’t make it. By a stroke of fortune, though, Felix was there, so I had a very pleasant evening with him instead. :-)

 

fuck you

I really think there are better ways to do this. probably. if they involve felix voluntarily experiencing an emotion or dimitri processing one then their out Wrong “their” then there out Forget it. Felix has feelings.

How was your date? It didn’t end up being one, but the evening was still pleasant :-) So it worked out for the best. What do you mean? Well, I went to the restaurant Sylvain specified, but when I arrived, only Felix was there. I asked what he was doing there and he said he was also waiting for a blind date. I suggested we wait together, so we waited for a while, but nobody showed up. So I invited him to have dinner with me instead.

I don’t understand. Why is there a problem, if you enjoyed your evening? Don’t you find there to be something odd about the whole situation? I wasn’t at all suspicious until Ingrid started questioning me. It IS strange that Felix agreed to dine with me. I expected him to turn me down and leave when his date didn’t appear. It is also strange that both of your dates did not show up. Exactly... I hate to be distrustful of my friends when I know they mean the best for me, but it is difficult not to wonder about Sylvain’s motives. I don’t know how best to explain. He is Sylvain. Yes! You always understand me, Dedue. Nevertheless, I am sure they bear no ill will.

Do you suppose Sylvain might have had some ulterior motives? Ulterior motives... Like what? I’m not sure. Does he know of your feelings for Felix? I apologise. I know you don’t like to discuss it. No, I’m sorry, it’s alright. I had to relocate to my personal computer. Your question startled me and I cracked my mobile phone screen under my thumbs again. Dedue, for the umpteenth time, I don’t have feelings for Felix. Again...? I’ll pay for it... I am not confident you understand your feelings in this matter. Well, we can agree to disagree. Nevertheless, I doubt Sylvain would assume as much.

May I ask, why have you agreed to another date if you are still hung up on Felix? Sylvain seemed so keen to help me. I couldn’t refuse, he’s a friend. Hm. I am not hung up on Felix. If you insist on remaining in denial, then allow me to rephrase the question: Is your primary concern not Felix as your completely platonic friend? You have seemed upset lately that he wishes not to speak with you. Felix really seems not to like me. At all, it seems. Least of all in THAT way, so there is no basis for your thinly-veiled suspicion. If I may be candid, I am not sure I understand why you like HIM. I suppose that’s fair. I can’t say I understand what’s happened myself. He’s always been prickly, but I could always tell what he meant. We were very close up until recently. He just stopped talking to me...

If you don’t mind my asking, what exactly happened on the last evening out? I arrived at the restaurant and found Felix waiting there, so I asked him what he was doing and he said he was waiting for a blind date. I told him I was doing the same. Then he looked enraged for a minute, but he frequently does, so I let it pass. I suggested we wait together, and he looked sullen but agreed. We chatted for a while, which I appreciated, because he hadn’t spoken to me in a while. Did you ask why? No, I thought I ought to allow him his space. He doesn’t have to talk to me if he doesn’t want to. I see. Some time passed and our dates didn’t arrive, so I suggested we simply have dinner together. Again, he looked mutinous, but agreed, much to my surprise. Nothing monumental occurred. It was just nice to talk with him. He is always honest with me.

Come to think of it, Sylvain organised the blind date for me after I mentioned to him that Felix hadn’t been speaking to me lately. Do you think he might suspect I have feelings for Felix? He must be trying to make me feel better. It’s possible. I don’t want to be rude, but I suspect you have been less discreet than you believe. Dedue! Do you think so?! There is nothing to be discreet about! How many times must I repeat myself...? I do not have feelings for Felix! I sincerely doubt Sylvain is reading into this as much as you have been. Forgive me. You are rather transparent in these matters, though you yourself seem unable to see through it. How embarrassing... I suppose I should ask.

You come off as really abrasive, and it almost seems like you don’t have feelings. But I know that’s not true. Glenn was like that, too. Something you have in common with him is that when you get upset, you ALWAYS talk about it. are you taking up my time just to compare me to my brother who by the way is dead That’s hypocritical. You’re not a fast typer either. And no, I’m not. I’m saying I know you didn’t change THAT much from when we were kids, Felix. You’re not the most open about your feelings, but you’ve always preferred honest confrontation. I want to know why you’re not being honest with Dimitri. this again? It IS my business. its none of your business ugh! Stop ignoring me. I’ll come to your place if you don’t reply. you are a fucking pain in my ass. fine. whatever. what’s your point. Just answer my question. only if you tell me why this fucking matters to you You should answer first. no Ugh, I can’t stand you. never mind. delete whatever you’re typing. What? it’s just going to be “ooooo because we’re friiiiends” I don’t want to see it. Well, fine. Answer me, then. theres no point talking about it. What do you mean? you’re right. I don’t like letting things sit when the obvious answer is just to talk about it. but that wouldn’t change anything, so there’s no use.

Sylvain, because I know you already have the wrong idea, I’d like to clarify that nothing happened between Felix and I last night. oh no I know dude What? oh cmon you two are so pure as if youd *cough cough* “do it” on the first date naughty words omitted for innocent dima’s maiden ears Thanks, Sylvain. so what did u two kids get up to instead of fun stuff We just talked. It was nice. :-) thats sweet did you confess the feelings you finally figured out you have I did. what did he say Um, I’m not comfortable with the language he used. ok replace it with “flock” He said something like, “You’re a flocking idiot” and then mumbled some unsavoury things under his breath. It doesn’t matter, we’ve resolved it now :-)

I take it you two are now officially a couple? Thank you for your support. I must have been infuriating to deal with. I will not comment. That said, I am happy for you, Dimitri. :-) Thank you, my friend. Oh, this is funny. Felix told me the reason he hasn’t been speaking to me is that he was embarrassed to find he had feelings for me. I was so worried! For nothing! :-) ...

i had a good time. thanks. There’s nothing to thank me for, Felix. I’m only sorry it took me so long to figure out my own feelings. didn’t expect better Why didn’t you tell me how you felt? It might have helped me along. 🙄 Ha. Okay, fair enough. I’m glad I got there eventually. yeah, me too. You should know I adore you. shut the fuck up. YOU didn’t know until yesterday. No, I knew. The... romantic nature of my feelings may have gotten a little confused, but there’s never been any doubt that I care for you, Felix. I always have, and deeply so. ok. stop talking. No, I want to make up for how long it took me to get here. please stop Hah. Okay, for you. this is worse you’re free tonight. come over. Oh? Of course. I look forward to seeing you. Should I bring anything? something to kill sylvain with Don’t be so harsh... I feel we owe him a debt of gratitude. we don’t owe him fucking anything he just threw a condom at my face Ah... get here at 7. ill get rid of him before then. Get... rid of him? don’t worry about it. I feel I should... you don’t have to bring anything. just yourself. Is that enough? :-) fucking idiot. when has it ever not been?

Notes:

(next "chapter" is just a missing scene from their date which i could not exclude in good faith)

lore

  • dimitri is not a prince they just call him “your highness” because he’s so like prince charming and also because it embarrasses the living hell out of him

  • ingrid and glenn were not betrothed bc that’s kind of not really a thing in modern setting but they were in an arranged engagement for their respective family businesses idk they were happy to go through with it though and cared about each other very much

  • every modern au has to have a reason why felix hates dimitri. sometimes it’s very angsty and serious and sometimes it’s felix realises he has a crush and clams the fuck up

  • the "felix free space" group chat is an homage to the legendary felix-free-vent. felix knows it exists. it was actually his idea. he’s tired of them planning Fun Bowling Outings when he just wants to stay at home and play call of duty or whatever

  • felix spent the entirety of dimitri’s confession dying from chilli powder

  • ingrid had to add them all back to the chat after felix’s little tantrum.

  • the "class" dedue mentions - he teaches a cooking class, which mercie attends :3

  • lore about nicknames

    Sylvain’s phone:

  • sylvain sets felix’s nickname in their DM every other day and felix deletes it/changes it to “fuck you” or something similar just as often.

  • don’t talk me im ingry


  • Ingrid’s phone:

  • sylvain changed his own nickname to something too self-complimentary so she changed it to “Manwhore” to reset the balance in the universe


  • Dimitri’s phone:

  • sylvain changed felix’s nickname in dimitri/felix's dm to “sylvain wuz here”. felix doesn’t check the settings, so he doesn’t know. (dimitri eventually deletes it.)

  • sylvain set his own name to “studhorse”, obviously. dimitri probably just said “Sigh.” and left it.


  • Felix’s phone:

  • dimitri set his own name to "Boar :-)" as a joke to placate felix. (it worked, but felix is furious about how cute he finds it.)

  • annie set her own nickname to BESTIE :star::heart::star:. felix is okay with this.

  • i am on twitter @corviiid come say hello!! <3
    you can rt this fic here!
