Day 22: Role Swap
/I have a thing for chars that snapped so pls let me do this/
I’ll explain this AU-
An AU where Dedue was the one who made it out alive while Dimitri sacrificed himself. Not wanting to see Dedue die and not being able to live with the few remaining survivors of Duscur.
Dedue considers the death of Dimitri to be his fault and he blames himself for failing as a vassal. As his shield.
So- in a sense, instead of Dimitri being haunted by the death of those from the tragedy of Duscur.
It’s Dedue who is haunted by Dimitri, by failing to protect the one who swore to protect. Believing that if he kills Cornelia he’ll be forgiven by his highness.
“…he catches a glimpse of her on his commute, the angle just right on the monorail’s grimy windows to lock eyes with her reflection from across the rail car. Like always, it’s only for a moment, and Claude almost misses it when the train stops and the crush of commuters carries him out to the platform in their dash for home.”
