love triangle with byleth & shez
pairing: byleth eisner x gn!reader x shez
tags: love triangle, rivarly, arguments, genderneutral!shez & byleth
byleth might've caught your eyes first, by being a strong and yet mysterious mercenary, but shez had been your friend for much longer!
both of them had something positive about them, as well as negative things you couldn't possibly ignore
the most glaring negative about both of them was their rivalry with each other! the two of them really managed to bring out each other's worst side when they were around each other…
their rivalry was first only on the battlefield, but when it became more obvious that both of them were in love with you, their rivalry soon swapped over into your everyday life
both shez and byleth want to win your heart, but neither of them is as direct as simply confessing to you
instead, both of them try to hog up all your time, so that the other one can't be near you! it's usually rather subtle, by trying to be the first to ask you out for dinner or to train together
it's always a race who gets to you first and it seems to be an unspoken rule that once one of you spends time with you, the other one stays far away
trying to make the two of them spend time together only backfires, as your attempts to help them become friends often end in arguments between shez and byleth
eventually, you set the two of them an ultimatum: you'll only pick one of them, if the two of them can finally get along!
they don't need to become best friends, but you want both of them to be part of your life, without having to compromise!
