This one is definitely more of a comedy chapter. 

I had this one planned out for a few days but I wanted to put the other ones out first. 

Get ready for a whole lot of comedy! 

[Comedy. Comedy and fluff. And Lorenz.]

You seemed like one of the only people excited for this project. 

You've known your classmates for a month or two before classes started. You heard that your professor, Byleth, was a mercenary before becoming a professor. They have no teaching experience whatsoever. That doesn't show at all. They're very calm and collected and able to reign in the Golden Deer. 

When they announced the partner project, you were excited! There were so many people in this classroom that you wanted to get to know better. 

Claude von Riegan is your house leader. Tall, funny, and charming. He'll pull silly pranks and make silly jokes with his friends and in the classroom sometimes. His smile is so beautiful, yet his eyes... Reflect a kind of sadness and loneliness that you can't quite place. He seems to analyze your every move... 

Lorenz Hellman Gloucester stood next to him, badgering him to partner up for the project. The "noble-ist of nobles", he was constantly found spouting off some jargon about how being a noble is being chivalrous, kind, intelligent, strong, blah blah blah. The rose on his clothes is just as annoying and flashy as his attitude. 

Hilda Valentine Goneril was besides the both of them, trying to gently tug Claude away from the purple haired fiend. She's lazy. She's lazy and has no problems admitting to it. Her brother and father spoiled her a ton before she came to the academy. She can be quite funny, if not on purpose. 

Marianne von Edmund is an absolute sweetheart. Usually found in the stables, caring for the horses or other animals around the monastery. She doesn't talk much, if at all. No one has ever heard her laugh or seen her smile. You've had tea with her once or twice. It was an adorable time. Her face lit up so brightly talking about animals. 

Lysithea von Ordelia is probably the youngest student at the academy. She has a fiery temper, unafraid to step in when Lorenz is jumping over boundaries. It is rumored that she has a major sweet tooth, sometimes even sneaking in sweets to class. Her hair and eyes are such unique colors, you wonder if they always looked like that... 

Ignatz Victor is a sweetheart, much like Marianne. A bit shy, he always has knowledge or a kind word to spare for anyone who needs it. He was born a commoner. That's about all you know of his past. He wanted to become a knight to please his parents. His hobby is painting! You've seen his art and told him his paintings should be in an art museum! You have never seen anyone blush so hard. 

Leonie Pinelli is... A bit of an enigma. She is also a commoner. She likes to brag about how she is "Jeralts greatest apprentice", how she learned from the Blade Breaker himself. She can be found training against Lorenz though he never really stands a chance against her seeing as she never goes easy on him. Rumor around town is she is a master haggler. 

Last but not least is Raphael Kirsten. The big teddy bear of the Golden Deer. He is such a softy. He can either be found training or eating... And that's about it. It's just him and his sister right now. He's doing everything that he can at the academy to be able to provide for her when she needs it. He also gives the best hugs in the monastery. No arguments about that. 

The class was small but it felt like home. 

Raphael had made his way into the seat next to yours. 

"Hey, Y/N! Would you wanna partner up for the project? You seem cool and I'd like to know you more!" His smile is so genuine and sweet. You nodded happily, excited to know Raphael more.
