    Summary

    The mercenary Byleth has a secret: she doesn't feel any emotions in a normal way. Happiness, sadness, you name it. But she can pretend to do so, and does it better than anyone alive. And all of that has helped her to secretly be one of the best assassins Fódlan has ever seen - the Morrigan. But when she helps save a trio of students from bandits, one in particular catches her eye, and ignites her heart like no one else ever has before. With the help of the mysterious, sassy girl only she can see and hear, Byleth attempts learn what her feelings about Edelgard von Hresvelg mean, and how best to act on them, before problems with the mysterious Flame Emperor make time run out.


    This is very different to my other work(s), in that I have not finished this one before posting. I don't necessarily expect to get to the end of the game, but I'm hoping to be writing this on and off between chapters of EFFXIV, which means updates will be irregular and unscheduled. Nevertheless, I hope y'all enjoy it!

    Beta reading by Scorchlette! And despite heavy storyline differences, this was somewhat inspired by the AU work Turas, by Grundpfeiler!

    Summary

    “Even a songbird can fall.”

    Yashi never asked to be a hero—or a survivor. Trapped inside Sword Art Online, the young musician finds herself in a world where music means little, and blood-soaked steel speaks louder than any melody. Still, she carries a song in her heart… even as the silence of survival threatens to drown it out.

    Haunted by echoes of the past, Yashi navigates a shifting landscape of memory, code, and consequence. Three girls draw near:
    —A cunning informant with a cunning smile and history etched deep into every glance.
    —A lone marksman who fell from the sky, carrying pain beneath her silence.
    —And a blue-eyed shadow with secrets that could unmake everything.

    Together, they walk a path where trust is fragile, and the line between reality and illusion thins with every fight.

    What do you do when the song you’re meant to sing… might be the one that ends it all?

    Because in this world, it’s not the strongest who decides the outcome.
    It’s the one still standing when the final note fades.

    And in the end, that note might belong to Yashi.

    Summary

    “Interesting. Your vibe doesn't really give off ‘runs from problems’ but I guess I can't always read people at a glance.

    It had taken a few years but Beat was finally back on her feet. Sure, parts of this reality sucked and she wished she was back with her in the world with her band, but she wasn't going to throw away the chance of finishing school with the leftover money she received when she was hit by that truck. She wanted to get her momentum going and completing her schooling felt like a straight forward big thing to go for.

    Of course, she never could have expected to run into some familiar faces.
