"Hey, this is Claude! Pretty sure I'm doing this correctly. You can leave me a message here, and I'll get to it as soon as I can. Talk to you soon~."

when we were younger he used to flirt with Ingrid all the time.
though if he ever kissed her she'd break his arm.
so I guess you have a point.
and I didn't but I'm not sylvain.
I don't
he's the one who
whatever.
last night I was right there and he looked like he'd rather throw up than
ugh.
that's a stupid question.
but I get what you're doing.
but you don't understand.
he's been my best friend since we were little.
if I ruin it with
these other feelings
I don't ever want the fake sylvain to talk to me.

[Felix's next response takes a little longer to arrive.]

no not really.
which
when you say it like that
ugh. don't make fun of me.
I told you I'm not good at this.
I always thought all this romance nonsense was a distraction.
guess I was right actually.
but sylvain is
different.
I don't know.

I'm not sweet. shut up.
I guess that makes sense.


[A pause between messages, and then he sends:]

why does dimitri keep giving me things?

From: [personal profile] bestswordmaster
hey. don't talk about dimitri like that.
he's not a mess.
never mind I shouldn't have asked.

shut up.
that was different.
he was lying to himself then.
and I was
angrier.
and more confused.
it's not just you I'd challenge anyone who disrespected him.


[Felix glares at the message before he sends it. Claude's right about one thing; if his younger self saw this, he'd be furious. But...things are different now. He adds another line to the message before sending it:]

I'm his shield.

[This message comes quicker than any of the others have.]

I'm not talking about this.
thanks for the advice.
I'm going to sleep.

[Felix is literally in the process of closing the Gear when Claude goes on. He flops down on his back onto the bed and lifts the Gear to operate it from below, glaring slightly at the buttons.]

have I ever told you you talk too much?
you must really love the sound of your own voice.
though I can see why if it distracts you from this infuriating music.
what is that about???
I don't know.
I was wondering the same thing.
when I told Dimitri it just
happened.
I think
this is part of why things are so weird with sylvain?
he's from much earlier in the war.
will it change things back home?
to tell them?

bestswordmaster: (main)
From: [personal profile] bestswordmaster
you know what I meant!
oh.
I can see how that would be a concern.
in this case it's the opposite though.
it
that thing I told him about
was the beginning of his crawling out of the hole.
if anything he'll be much better off much earlier.
and maybe he won't insist on fighting you at Gronder
for literally no reason.
and that battle at Derdriu won't even happen.
I don't know.
but he needed the news.
and hiding from it accomplishes nothing.

From: [personal profile] bestswordmaster
hm.
I see why they call you the master tactician.
I loathe politics.
but even I could tell the way you handled the Alliance for those first five years was masterful.
you know how to do a lot with a little.
it's impressive.
but. with dimitri it was complicated.
that was the beginning but
the professor talked to him.
and then I did, and Gilbert.
and others.
to get to where he was at fhirdiad.
so it's good that we're all here.
but if I have to have that whole conversation with him again
I'm going to toss him into the river.
there are
some things I never apologized for though.

you probably deserved it.
I'd throw you in the ocean, too.
sounds like your nobility isn't too far off from ours.
except instead of cowardly they're CHIVALROUS.
which is worse frankly.
also cats aren't actually that hard to gather.
that saying was invented by someone who didn't know what they were doing.
he will remember them.


[A pause, and then another message comes:]
this is stupid.
you're two doors down.
why are we still sending message on here?
it's a pain.

[Felix frowns at the screen, then pockets his Gear and runs a brush through his hair briefly without bothering to put it up before marching down the hall to Claude's room and entering without preamble, wearing what passes for sleepwear--the slim blue pants from the outfit that was packed in his bag, and the sleeveless black undershirt that goes under its jacket. He shuts the door behind him.]

Margrave Gautier is the lowliest scum in the whole Kingdom. He's a perfect example of everything wrong with the Faerghan nobility. I despise him.

...okay, not that bad. But close.

[Felix folds his arms and leans against whatever convenient piece of furniture is near where Claude sits, eyes hard.]

Yes, he treats Sylvain terribly. You heard what happened with his brother; that was their father's fault, too. A lot of nobles are obsessed with Crests and arranging 'good' marriages for their kids to get more Crested blood into the family, but the Gautiers take it to a horrific extreme. Sylvain has a Crest, obviously. Miklan didn't.

...my father had plenty of his own problems, but at least he never treated me like a commodity because of my Major Crest.
