Interviewing Garreg Mach (Fire Emblem: Three Houses one shots)

The panic as you realize you should've kept your mouth shut (Ashe Ubert)

Alternatively titled: You praise Ashe, he only ever wants to hear you say that again. 

Ashe is the best boi and I know I'm gonna get so carried away while writing this one. I'm playing through the Golden Deer route again and I am going to recruit him and marry him. I must. 

Sweet little archer deserves so much love and I will be the one to personally hand deliver it to him

So basically I'm an Ashe simp 

This chapter takes place after chapter 3 of part 1

[This chapter contains fluff. No nsfw undertones, just fluff and well deserved praise, and the tiniest bit of sad boi hours.]

You were fairly certain Professor Hanneman had it out for you today. 

Forcing you to find someone in class you're interested in talking to for a week? That's gonna be tough. You looked around at your classmates to see who would be the least embarrassing person to talk to. 

Prince Dimitri was an immediate no. He's sweet, sure, but also very intimidating. His height doesn't help him be any less scary. Besides that, though, he's a very thoughtful man. Very considerate and kind, he's helped you take notes a few times during class. But he's scary. 

Next to him, more like behind him, was Dedue. Dedue is a gentle giant. You've had his cooking quite a few times when he was on kitchen duty and by Sothis above, he is a phenomenal chef. Someday you want to ask him to teach you how to cook. But he's also a bit scary because of his height. And he's almost always frowning a bit. Maybe someday. 

Sylvain was getting an earful from Ingrid, accompanied by Felix. Sylvain is a total skirt chaser, flirting with anyone who breathes practically. You've never had a normal conversation with the dude. A part of you wishes you could speak to him normally. He seems like he's really intelligent under all the philandering. 

Ingrid is a gentle soul. Very mama bear. She has punched Sylvain for trying to flirt with you. When you seem bored, she would usually be found bringing you a new book to read that she thought would interest you. You've been her support system in return when she needed someone to listen to her. She's an amazing friend. 

Felix is... Well, Felix. Standoffish, blunt, a bit rude and cold, but also very attentive and strong. He's not one much for conversation, preferring to express his emotions through the art of swordsmanship. You've caught him at the training grounds time and time again. He knows his own limits but you really hope he isn't overworking himself. 

Annette is like a younger sister to you. She's a makeup expert and has offered to experiment on you quite a few times. If you politely decline, she'll understand and move to her next fashion target. You know she always pushes herself to do her best. Sometimes you worry, but you know she can handle it. Her kitchen skills however... 

Mercedes was next to her. Big sister Mercie is a MASTER of sweets. If you're having a bad day, a basket of sweets and some tea will show up at your door. She may be older but she views all of the Blue Lions as her family. She told you once that she has an older brother. You want to meet him, but she said he disappeared some time ago. 

Last was Ashe. He was standing a bit aways from everyone else. One word to describe him: Precious. He was the embodiment of loyal. He once told you his dreams of becoming a knight. Immediately after he said that, you know he would get everything he dreamed of. An excellent archer, a kind soul, an amazing friend. 

Yep, it's Ashe. That's who you're picking for the project. 

You walked over to him and as soon as he noticed you, he smiled so brightly and waved you over.
