"It was supposed to be a one-time thing. Something passionate and new. Both Claude and Dimitri understood that it wouldn’t go anywhere. They had their own motivations. Claude posed it as an experiment of sorts, to better understand the male form and body. Dimitri sat for a long moment before nodding. Not quite an agreement, but showing his understanding that it would benefit them both."
Wear Your Colours
is an ongoing Fire Emblem: Three Houses Fan Fic series by Metallic_Sweet.
The story merges the Azure Moon and Verdant Wind routes, where Dimitri and Claude become involved during the academy phase. Claude's influence allows Dimitri to survive, and recover sooner than in canon.
Wear Your Colours provides examples of:
- Adaptational Sexuality:
- Dimitri and Sylvain have their bisexual implications confirmed.
- Dedue and Lorenz are also bisexual.
- Ferdinand goes from having an Ambiguously Bi support with Hubert to being heavily implied to be gay, or at least have a preference for men.
- Claude is given an interest in men that he lacks in canon.
- Beta Couple: Ashe and Ingrid, Dedue and Byleth. While they are less prominent, they are also more stable.
- Darker and Edgier: The series does not sugarcoat details.
- Demoted to Extra:
- While Edelgard retains her Big Bad status from Azure Moon, she's ultimately a Disc-One Final Boss and does not physically appear after the first story, aside from flashbacks.
- Bernadetta and Caspar are both killed off.
- Sexy Discretion Shot: With the exception of the end of A Dwindling Supply of Rose Petal Tea, all sex scenes are either only vaguely described or implied.
