- idiotville @ 9:46am -

 

PrettyBitch: did u just

 

edel_gard: I did

 

PrettyBitch: edie how dare u imply that we’re all idiots

 

PrettyBitch: I don’t deserve to be in the same category as these fools

 

let.me.sleep: Dorothea you have to admit 

 

let.me.sleep: we’re all idiots here

 

PrettyBitch: IM NOT!

 

let.me.sleep: it’s just that our levels of idiocy vary

 

edel_gard: exactly 

 

let.me.sleep: for example

 

let.me.sleep: Caspar is a solid 9/10 on the scale of idiocy

 

let.me.sleep: likely the biggest idiot in this chat

 

urlocalshortboi: HEY

 

let.me.sleep: I mean that in the nicest way possible

 

urlocalshortboi: I’m not an idiot!!!

 

let.me.sleep: yes you are

 

urlocalshortboi: I’m not!!!!!!!!

 

let.me.sleep: it isn’t necessarily a bad thing

 

urlocalshortboi: it’s bad and I’m not!!!!!

 

let.me.sleep: I’m rather fond of idiots

 

urlocalshortboi: oh

 

urlocalshortboi: well

 

PrettyBitch: hate to break up the moment but

 

PrettyBitch: I still disagree

 

edel_gard: Dorothea 

 

edel_gard: everyone here is an idiot

 

edel_gard: even myself

 

PrettyBitch: >:(

 

edel_gard: you and I are both low on the scale of course

 

PrettyBitch: :(

 

let.me.sleep: how about I give you all an official rating

 

edel_gard: alright then

 

dontevenlookatme: Surely it would be a biased rating?

 

let.me.sleep: well duh

 

let.me.sleep: but that’s the fun of it

 

let.me.sleep: I get to trash you all

 

dontevenlookatme: ...

 

let.me.sleep: I’m joking of course

 

edel_gard: wait let’s get everyone else here

 

edel_gard: @PetraMacneary @_bernie_ @i.am.ferdinand

 

PetraMacneary: I am here!

 

_bernie_: hhi

 

i.am.ferdinand: you called?

 

edel_gard: read back in the chat for context

 

i.am.ferdinand: hm

 

let.me.sleep: so 

 

let.me.sleep: at the lowest end of the scale

 

let.me.sleep: sitting at a respectable 2/10 

 

let.me.sleep: is Edelgard, Petra and Hubert

 

let.me.sleep: at 3/10 is Bernadetta

 

let.me.sleep: at 4/10 is Dorothea

 

let.me.sleep: at 6/10 is Ferdinand and myself 

 

let.me.sleep: and at the top of the scale

 

let.me.sleep: at 9/10

 

let.me.sleep: is Caspar

 

edel_gard: well then 

 

PrettyBitch: >:(

 

PrettyBitch: HOW AM I A FOUR

 

let.me.sleep: that’s relatively low on the scale 

 

edel_gard: Dorothea let’s be realistic about this

 

edel_gard: you solidified yourself as an idiot when you fell on that cake

 

edel_gard: so if I were you I would be thankful that your rating is a modest 4

 

dontevenlookatme: Indeed.

 

dontevenlookatme: My personal rating would have been much higher than a mere four...

 

PrettyBitch: WATCH IT HUBERT

 

dontevenlookatme: Oh dear, I am so deeply terrified by your threat.

 

PrettyBitch: IM FUCKING SERIOUS

 

dontevenlookatme: Wouldn’t it be such a shame if you were to fall like that again…

 

PrettyBitch: FERDINAND

 

i.am.ferdinand: hm?

 

PrettyBitch: CONTROL YOUR MAN

 

i.am.ferdinand: ah 

 

i.am.ferdinand: Hubert

 

dontevenlookatme: Yes, dear?

 

PrettyBitch: akshdjksxhzls

 

i.am.ferdinand: I believe it’s best if you stop that now

 

dontevenlookatme: Anything you say, my love.

 

i.am.ferdinand: and um

 

i.am.ferdinand: maybe cut down on the 

 

dontevenlookatme: The what, dearest?

 

i.am.ferdinand: the

 

i.am.ferdinand: the names 

 

dontevenlookatme: But why, my sweet?

 

i.am.ferdinand: I’m pretty sure I’m blushing right now and that’s not ideal

 

dontevenlookatme: Whyever not, love?

 

i.am.ferdinand: because I’m at work and you know it!

 

let.me.sleep: and here I was thinking PDA via groupchat wasn’t possible

 

edel_gard: aw

 

edel_gard: sweet

 

PrettyBitch: I agree with u edie but I’m still pissed

 

PetraMacneary: Holding a grudge is not good for you, Dorothea!

 

_bernie_: yyeah

 

PetraMacneary: It is best to be moving on!

 

edel_gard: wise words

 

PrettyBitch: hmph

Notes:

Thank u for reading!!! This is my first ever fic! Hopefully the characters aren't too ooc-feeling, but this is how I imagine them as modern uni students.

I write whenever I'm in the mood, so I can't say for sure how often this'll be updated. But hopefully the wait will be worth it between chapters, how ever long that may be. Thanks again!

[come yell at me on tumblr @fictrashdotcom ! I'm always down to chat about my black eagles babies]
