God Mercigrid is such an underrated ship. I want my jaded but still secretly hoping Knight Girl and my sweet as pie and loving even though her life has been so difficult girls to kiss.

But also I want Ingrid to be a knight for Mercedes the healer and nun. I want them to be together and free.

Dorothea Arnault is a deep cover spy embedded in Kingdom Corporation. She only has a few days left in Fhirdiad then she'll finally be home free. There’s just one little problem in her way: Fhirdiad is under attack. Hilda Goneril is sent on a salvage and scrap operation only to find the ship she’s supposed to scrap in perfect working order. There’s a CREST pilot on board when nobody should be alive. Claude owes her big time for this one. Ingrid Galatea is the best of the best CREST pilots, a survivor of an attack that she didn’t see coming. Mercedes has done everything in her power to save the pilot, but what use is a pilot without a mech?

A belated fic round-up!

wanted to catch up my fic tag here to fill in the gap between old stuff and a couple of new things, so here’s a list of some of my favourite fics I’ve posted in the last... nearly two years. 

Dividing this loosely into categories for ease — character studies, misc femslash, dimilix, sylvix, and felileth. this is long i’m sorry.

character studies:

love and other lies — Sylvain (implied sylvix), 1.7k, T

Sylvain survives a war. On the other side of it lies the rest of his life.

(also in the sylvix section, but it’s mostly a character study so it’s going here too)

the taste of memory — Dedue, 2.6k, T

Dedue’s time was divided these days. His village, by the Duscur coast, all sharp sun and sea, and Fhirdiad, the castle made of domineering stone and cold echoes—he drifted, never feeling quite at home in either place, always slightly the outsider. His two worlds had been sharply separated, the division enforced without ever having really to think about it. There was nothing of Duscur in these walls, save Dedue. His homeland was an abstract concept, not… not a culture.

Dimitri organises Fhirdiad's first Duscur Cultural Festival, and Dedue finds home in places he doesn't expect.

loyalty weighs — Petra & Dedue, 2.7k, T

Even in wartime, Abyss is the only place you can find some things. Or, Dedue and Petra discuss loyalty.

first starlight — Claude/Sylvain, 7.8k, T

Negotiating peace with Sreng, Sylvain comes across a familiar face where he wasn't expecting it.

(not exactly a character study but going here because I don’t have another category to put it in)

The Holy Heart — Rhea (as Seiros), 2k, T

After her death, Seiros leaves the land which betrayed her mother. But she takes what is left of Sothis with her.

Inspired by Joseph of Arimathea legends.

misc femslash:

what we are to each other — Edelgard/Ingrid, 1.5k, T

It hurt to want to believe her, and to not know if she could. “I am your knight,” Ingrid said. “I am your lance.” “And after?” Edelgard said, almost whispered. “I do not intend to fight forever.”

Loyalty, purpose, and what happens when you defect from the only home you've ever known.

the body kneeling — Mercedes/Marianne, 1.8k, Explicit

It’s easy to kiss Marianne. She responds so beautifully, coming alive under Mercedes’s fingertips. All her stillness becomes a shiver of thwarted motion, and she presses back into Mercedes — matching her, movement for movement.

Mercedes, Marianne, and an empty chapel.

evening coming in — Dorothea/Mercedes, 2.8k, Explicit

Broaching it directly seems like too much, though. The newness of everything between them, the whispered kisses and candlelit evenings — it would hardly stand up to a conversation like that. What could Dorothea say? “Oh, Mercedes, not to force my own views about the pointlessness of religion on you when it’s obviously taken you a lot to turn against the church that raised you and to which you were devoted, but it’s bothering me a bit that you spend your time in an draughty cathedral.”

Dorothea likes to think she isn’t quite that selfish.

Or: Dorothea wants to defile Mercedes on an altar. She gets a little defiled instead.

rosy-fingered moon — Ingrid/Mercedes, 6.7k, Explicit

On the road back to Garreg Mach, Mercedes and Ingrid meet again for the first time in five years.

the root of the root — Edelgard/Lysithea, 2.5k, T

Ten years after the end of the war, Lysithea reluctantly returns to Enbarr, Edelgard, and things she thought she could leave behind.

dimilix:

By Your Hands — CF route, 700 words, mature. PLEASE READ THE WARNINGS.

Dimitri dies on the Tailtean Plains. But it is not by Edelgard's hands.

trust fall — modern AU, 4k, Explicit

Felix tells Dimitri he trusts him. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Dimitri entirely misunderstands him. (BDSM, trans Felix.)

circling back — modern AU, 8.8k, T

Dimitri hasn't spoken to Felix in years, but he'll take any opportunity he can get. A story about reconnection, recovery, and falling in love even when everything is more than a little fucked up.

sylvix:

deepens like a coastal shelf — mid-Azure Moon, 3k, T

Felix and Sylvain grow up surrounded by Faerghus’s obsession with battle, its obsession with death. They don’t talk about it.

恋旧林 (liàn jiù lín) — longing for the old forest — xianxia AU, 4.8k, T

Something is plaguing the forest, and Felix has returned to find it. Sylvain is waiting for him.

But you can never quite go back to the places you've left.

love and other lies — post-canon, 1.7k, T

Sylvain survives a war. On the other side of it lies the rest of his life.

(also in the character study section! the sylvix is only implied but it’s there)

felileth:

cut free — canon divergence enemies to lovers, 6k, T

"What are you here for?”

Felix snorts. “Spar with me,” he says bluntly.

Byleth is rarely shocked. “You’ll let me have a weapon?”

With Edelgard defeated, Byleth plans to escape her captivity from an Arianrhod controlled by Fraldarius. Somehow, she finds an unexpected ally.

fire under the skin — modern AU, 3.7k, Explicit

Felix wants to try something new. The problem is actually asking Byleth about it. (Felix gets pegged, the fic.)

Snow on the Locket — post-canon “murder” mystery, 14.2k, T

At Fódlan’s Locket, long-awaited trade negotiations between Fódlan and Almyra are under way. But they’re rudely interrupted when a snowstorm and an assassin all arrive at once.

[tea-cat-arts]

Bitches be out here playing Dorothea and Ingrid's paralogue before watching their supports and instantly becoming a dorogrid shipper, only to watch the supports and have their ship crash and burn, and then manage to get stuck on the burning ship for over 2 years because they're still attached to it even though they hate their canon dynamic.

It is me, I am bitches. I hate it here

#dorogrid #aight where is everyone else who did this? #cuz ive tried shipping other things with these two #doropetra where the two go become queens of bridig together? beautiful #mercigrid where the two defy the roles assigned to them and follow their dreams? also excellent #my brain will never be as attached to those as dorogrid though and i am actively angry about it

[fourspiceblend]

HOLY SHIT MERCIGRID RIGHTS!!

BRO???

#few3h #spoilers #WHEN I TELL YOU I'VE BEEN GRINNING FOR LIKE FIVE MINUTES #HAROLD!!!! #pride month is every month in Faerhgus

[youngerfrankenstein]

Mercigrid for ship bingo? 👀

They drive me crazy because this ship was SO slept on for so long! It’s really good!!!

(Also I think /pos means positive? Though I really can’t read it as anything but “piece of shit”, which can make working at a cash register awkward)

#Ask #Thanks!

[demon-snqw]

Mercedes: My adopted father is pressuring me to marry into the nobility even though I don’t want to.

Ingrid:

Ingrid: I’d die for you.

Mercedes: Normally I’d be flattered, but you also said you’d die for a plate of chicken nuggets.

ur fave fe3h ship?

pretty much any femslash ship 😭 I've written a few edelthea fics, they're Incredibly precious to me. I also rly love dorogrid, mercigrid, marihilda and leolys. my weirdest fe3h ship is probably dorothea/edelgard/ingrid/mercedes. I loooove a polycule where it's just two femmes bullying their knights.

as you can tell I love a good butch/femme dynamic. I ALSO love dynamics where the butch gets slapped around a little bit 😭

#leonie getting dominated by a woman half her size is hysterical to me #THESE ARE ALL POST TIMESKIP OBVS

[landsailing]

just you, with me

Someone handed me a bowl of fried noodles. Did I look desperate? Well, I suppose they're mine now!

I thought a sweeter tea would pair well with the beach atmosphere, so I prepared some for us to enjoy.
