wait, what did you do to me?

Description

Before stepping foot onto the Officers Academy, Bae Joohyun was flourishing with confidence. Her wits in strategy, her vast knowledge of studies, and above all, her trusted bow and arrow, would lead her and her house to academic success and battlefield victory. After all, she was appointed as the new leader of the Black Eagles House for the Class of Imperial Year 1210. This appointment came with societal and imperial pressure, which was why she needed to perform well - and she knew she could. The fierce Adrestian Empire wouldn’t have taught her otherwise.

 

However, Joohyun didn’t think she would crumble at the sight of a seemingly peaceful and gorgeous looking young woman. Especially when it was Kang Seulgi of the rival Golden Deer House. And even more especially when Joohyun accidentally rendered Seulgi unconscious with an arrow during the mock competition between the three houses. 

 

Needless to say, Seulgi was hastily scooped into her strong leader’s arms to make way to the makeshift tent of an infirmary with a tearful Joohyun hot on their tails (deliberately ignoring the calls of her classmates and the archbishop's right-hand for leaving in the middle of a battle).

Foreword

If you’re following me on Twitter, you would have seen quite the number of tweets from me raving about Fire Emblem: Three Houses. I played it long ago, but recently I played it again for a different house and I just fell in love with that route. I know a cool mutual of mine is writing their own take at the moment, but I don’t recall seeing any other FE3H AU. Please let me know if y’all see any bc I would really like to read some since I’m super into this game at the moment, lol.

 

And I know, I know... I have plenty of other works I need to finish.... Let me have this though!!! I need to fuel my curiosity of having SeulRene in the FE3H universe! This will most likely be done by the end of the week since this is all I can think about. Then, it’s back to normal - delaying updates for my other stories as per usual, LOL. Consider this a step out from my writer’s block! Hopefully this will inspire more writers to write about SeulRene or Red Velvet in general in this AU bc honestly y’all can just think of it like Hogwarts!

 

Disclaimer: This story may contain spoilers from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Please do read at your own risk if you wish to not be spoiled! At the same time, I am not strictly following the storyline as I am only borrowing the concept. With that said, there will also be additional details in this story that will not be accurate according to the universe, so don’t treat this as a leeway into knowing what the video game is about!

Chapter 1: Ahhhhhhh! After three? two? years and you published the first chapter ohmygod! I actually thought this was one of the stories that got abandoned because you got busy or just probably lost interest in which is understandable so seeing you put out a chapter made me squeal in delight. Thank you for not giving up on this idea of yours!

Now off to the story proper.

I liked the character building in this one. Irene bearing a one track mind of being a strong soldier which is so befitting for the Black Eagles’ leader (made me fondly remember my rigid girl El) then almost everyone around her is just trying to enjoy or find romance. Then lo and behold, she had the opportunity to converse with Seulgi and everything was just so cute and adorable! Meeting in the greenhouse and Irene seeing Seulgi talking to a flower made me smile so wide because it was just sooooo innocent and sweet for a first actual meeting.

The story progresses so neatly as well, with subtle hints of how Irene was starting to adore Seulgi based on her death stares to others talking to the latter. Sooooo, looking forward if Seulgi actually got hurt during the mock battle because I’m at the edge of my seat wondering if you’ll use the “golden deer” image or go another route.

Overall, a very solid chapter. You still write so engagingly that I didn’t notice it’s quite a long chapter. Had a lot of fun reading this. Thank you for sharing your writing and looking forward to the next chapter. :)

Chapter 1: Ohhh the whole competition stopped because of seulgi lol. Seulgi is too precious hahaha. Seulgi seems to be important to Minho too with the way he reacted to her injury. It's nice to read all the characters having a nice relationship with everyone usually suho and Minho are made the romantic rivals of seulgi lol.
Thank you for updating. Im super excited for the next chapter. <3
