    engagement; a secret marriage; an act of desperation.

    The setting may change but it's Edeleth all the way down.

    Summary

    Dimitri turns around. Professor Byleth stares at him blankly. It’s kind of intense. Dimitri would feel uncomfortable, but yesterday Dimitri caught Byleth squatting and staring at a cat like that, so Dimitri knows he isn’t special. “Excuse me?”

    “You asked what Sothis would say to you,” Byleth elaborates unhelpfully. Professor Byleth. The Professor. “That’s what she says. She says your haircut sucks. I don’t agree with her. Your haircut is very nice, Dimitri.”

    Someone probably should have told Byleth that the Goddess was named Sothis.

    Summary

    Edelgard was prepared for Byleth to side with the Church of Seiros and stand against her. The closure of rejection would’ve hurt, but it would’ve placed her firmly as an enemy in her mind. She might’ve even found it in herself to hate her former professor, to believe her blind and corrupt and an obstacle to what Fódlan could become.
    She wasn’t ready to have Byleth taken away from her. To receive acceptance and a promise of protection she thought herself foolish to hope for. It was all that she wanted and thought she’d never have, her teacher, standing between her and danger once again, without even having to think about it. And then Byleth was gone, with no explanation.
    The archbishop had many crimes to pay for, Edelgard reminded herself, but she couldn’t help but to think about the last time she saw her teacher's eyes whenever she sharpened her axe.

    Summary

    When Dorothea shares a silly question she asked Petra--Would you love me if I was a worm?--Edelgard dismisses it as absurd. But as the thought festers, she finds herself asking her wife, Byleth, the same thing.

    Summary

    “You’re avoiding me. You left the ring behind. I don’t understand. What did I do wrong?” Byleth asks, hunching in Edelgard’s chair. She knows she should feel shame, or embarrassment, or something, but she cannot find it in herself to care: everything has been going sideways ever since her heart began beating, and she feels small and fragile with the weight of it. Edelgard stands close now, hands clasped tightly in front of her. 

    “My teacher,” she starts. Sighs. Then, as Byleth watches, the Emperor disappears from her expression and leaves behind a young woman, uncertain and a little sad, eyes shadowed, face drawn. Edelgard drops to her knees in front of her. Her lashes are wet with unshed tears. 

    Byleth reaches out to touch her shoulder, startled. 

    “My teacher, my teacher, how can I tell you about my shame?” Edelgard asks. “After everything you have given me, that I still wanted more?”

    -

    In which the goddess breaks Byleth's feelings, Edelgard pines, and Hubert is very, very tired.
