    Summary

    Once, he overheard one of Edelgard’s mysterious pals call Byleth, “Fell Star.” It made Claude envision a star that descended from the heavens to the ground below, shedding its light on the world, and he had to agree with the imagery. Byleth shone brighter than anything in the sky, a shooting star that came into his life and then left just as quickly as it arrived.

    Inspired by the song of the same name by Skillet.

    Summary

    Your relationship with death isn’t like most. You’ve flirted with death, like others have flirted for a free drink at the bar; and you’ve sent it gifts, bouquet after bouquet of souls you’ve hand-plucked out of their bodies.. You’ve even gone home with death a few times: Once, you stayed over for a five year stint before putting on yesterday’s skin and crawling out of slumber.

    (In which Byleth contemplates the meaning of death but also keeps running into Claude in the middle of the night.)
