hi can I get hcs of the golden deer + byleth asking claude about his braid during lunch? his childhood friend always braided it for him back then, but they died

NOTES: sure thing nonnie !!! it’s not as angsty as i wanted it to be, but then again i didn’t want to hurt claude too much uwu

by the way, there’s some spoilers for the game, particularly for claude’s background. please tread carefully, my lovelies !!!

claude + the story behind his braid under the cut !!!

In the light that streamed in through Garreg Mach’s windows, Byleth, as if for the first time, noticed something odd about Claude’s hair: at the very end of his braid was a golden band keeping it together.

The band in itself was not an oddity—it was something most people used to keep their hair together, after all—but rather the strange, small markings scratched into its surface. They looked almost intentional, with the way the lines seemed to be carved into the material, etched into its surface like a tattoo.

So, curiously, innocently, Byleth notes, “Claude, the band in your hair seems to be damaged.”

It’s amazing that such a simple statement could call upon the memories he thinks he’s buried into the depths of his mind, could call upon the feeling of the summer sun on tanned skin, of the fluffy heads of weeds against his fingertips, and his expression freezes.

It’s frightening, he thinks, it’s frightening that he can remember you with such stunning clarity, especially when he thought that he has buried you deep in the depths of his memories. He hasn’t thought of you in years, and yet—

❛ ━━━━━━━━━･❪ ❀ ❫･━━━━━━━━━ ❜

He can easily remember the sound of your laughter drifting through the breeze, his own—childish, boisterous—following close behind, exhilarated from your (once again) successful escape from the castle. He can easily remember the wind brushing through your hair and whipping the strands out of place, of chasing the image of the back of your tunic as the two of you maneuver the tall fields of wild grass.

He can easily remember playing hide and seek, attempting to blend in as much the best you could into the landscape, slitting yourselves between the blades of green. He can easily remember the nights the two of you snuck out to stargaze, your finger tracing shapes into the dark sky as you tell him all the tales you know about the heavenly bodies of the sky.

He can easily remember your hands over his, gentle fingers guiding his own to teach him how to braid on the long stalks of grass—“My sister showed me,” you informed him once—repeating over and under and over and under, and he remembers being fascinated with the movement, with the simple act of twisting and turning to create something that solidifies its permanence until you wish it to be no more.

He practiced on the grass, on the tassels of the curtains, and on frayed ends of the blanket he refuses to throw away because it’s from you, until one day, he manages to do it on his own hair.

The day he shows you, he shows you proudly, and you applaud him, ooh-ing and aah-ing over his handiwork.

“But”—you announce, and his heart sinks in his chest—”It still needs one final touch.”

He watches with cocked brow as your deft fingers undo the one you have in your own hair and hand him the band that held it in place, pressing it into his palm.

He refuses at first, of course, but when you tell him, “Keep it. It’s yours now,” he cannot find it in himself to deny your insistence.

“I’ll remember you,” he promises, solemnly holding up the band to the space between you, “I won’t ever forget.”

“Good.” You smile, and he slips the band into his hair.

(Later, when he receives word of your passing, he takes the head of an arrow and does his best to carve your name into it’s surface, making good on his promise of never forgetting you.)

❛ ━━━━━━━━━･❪ ❀ ❫･━━━━━━━━━ ❜

Back at the lunch table, Claude suddenly notices all the eyes on him. With a well-practiced shrug and his same, carefree countenance, he plays it off with, “It’s one of many, Teach. I guess I got too carried away with training.”

And, with curiosity abated, Byleth leaves it at that with a noncommittal, “Ah,” and the table resumes with the lively conversation that seems to characterize their House more than others.

That night, after he’s taken a bath and soaked in the warm water for longer than necessary, his fingers redo the braid in his hair—over, under, over under—just the way you showed him all those years ago. When he reaches the end, he clips that very same band into his hair, a thumb running over your initials as a fond sort of smile plays at his lips.

“I miss you,” he confesses, speaking to no one but his reflection in the mirror.

Though he’s not one to believe in the afterlife or in the existence of ghosts, there’s a small part of him that insists that he can feel a faint glimmer of your presence from somewhere over his shoulder.

The Indie Testament

Do you think you’re original?

That you have a neverending desire to change the conceptions tied to you and your work

You imagine others describe you as unconventional, revolutionary

A break up with your past

The frivolous fears you had concerning your needs and desires

Now freely expressed, leaving the shadow of guilt and mindlessness

The shackles that societal norms create

To stifle the fires that reside in us all

Whether its new wave, punk, or a style newly developed

Being "indie" isn’t noble or never before seen ideas

It derives from music discourse, a term used to describe independent artists

And it later came to represent the rejection of mainstream media

There are countless works that can fit under this umbrella,

And the term itself describes the essential process behind creativity

Bringing individuality and awkwardness to form a certain aesthetic

Here are some works that utilize this indie style in the contemporary world

These pieces represent the beginning of many different artistic processes

All through the particular lens of niche authenticity.

Show - We Are Who We Are

The theme I have identified within this shows is the exciting, shameful, and bare experiences of today’s teenagers, following the internal revolution that Gen Z is now a part of. We Are Who We Are shows queer identity and messy exhilaration in a seamless manner. It proves admirable in its attempt to display teen angst without picking apart characters struggling to find safety and purpose in unfamiliar territory. The frankness of the characters and the military base they are settled in juxtaposes its simple message and provides a much more meaningful and fresh look at drama in everyday scenarios, unlike a majority of shows.

2. Abstract Art - Jackson Pollock

Abstract art usually derives from the desire to stray from standard art forms and subjects, often meeting criticism in the public eye. Jackson Pollock is an example of a pioneering artist that delivers new methods and purposes behind his art. One expressionist claimed his art reflected an immediacy of drawing through graceful swirls and lines that seem to reflect the unconscious without an obvious intention. His art is not just lines or drips, but instead a scene opaque enough to create a picture unique to every viewer.

3. Music - Clairo

Clairo is an artist nearest to my heart, the face of the bedroom pop genre, and an emerging artist with a soothing voice and beautiful instrumentals. One of her first hits, Pretty Girl, debuted on her youtube channel and slowly gained attention for her unappealing yet adorable appearance. She achieved a crude but cute style by recording her music on Garageband and filmed herself dancing in her room on her built-in computer camera. She continues to try out new fashions, like her new band with her friend Claud (another indie artist). Her new mullet and iconic tunes make Clairo an adorable new asset to the contemporary indie-pop genre.

4. Music video - Jocko homo

Jocko Homo is a perfect example of an independent style, seen in its message, experimental genre, medium, and art style. It preluded the era of music videos and carried chants inciting revolutionary thinking, namely de-evolution. Defying the popularized theory of evolution, this video points to the tragedies and absurdity of life that occur regardless of our ever-evolving selves and important discoveries.

5. Movies - Moonlight and Being John Malkovich

Moonlight focuses on the hidden desires and stereotypes that plague communities from expressing themselves without fear or ensuing violence. Its unique cinematography and poetic nature make this beautiful film that captures the importance of struggling in past experiences and their impact in shaping your identity.

Being John Malkovich also demonstrates unconventionality, but through very different methods. Like Jocko Homo, it explains existentialism and identity crises through absurdity and unrealistic scenarios. It also brings in very unusual techniques that led to its critical acclaim, such as creating a movie that forces a particular actor, John Malkovich, to star in this movie. It explores a lot of topics that are seen throughout this list, but in a time and a manner very unlike the other items in this list. From adulterous relationships and trans identity to keeping your significant other hostage and taking over someone’s body, this cult-favorite explores a lot of tricky and relatable topics in a quirky dark comedy.
