so i’ve been playing fe7

[thatnebbles]

i got really emotional about fe7 and eliwood/hector again so have a short and a little bittersweet elihec drabble <3

The Dragon's Gate loomed overhead.

It was creepier than Hector remembered. Buildings don't magically grow bigger, but its shadow seemed to cast far deeper than before. The air was thick with tension, palpable with fear. The risk of coming back dead was higher than he'd like. Though Armads was with Graybeard at the moment, Hector still felt its weight crushing his palm.

"Eliwood." Hector's hand shot out to grab his wrist. He wasn't thinking--he hadn't time to consider the words tumbling from his mouth. "Before we go in there, I… Allow me to speak just a moment. Please."

Eliwood looked to him, those sky-blue eyes beautiful and bright with worry. "What ails you, friend?"

He opened his mouth to try and speak, but hot air and sputtering noises graced him. The humid clime made it hard to breathe. He thought he forgot how words functioned, and had no time to relearn them. He was always better with his actions, and perhaps that was what bade him to draw his free arm around Eliwood's waist and kiss him.

He kissed Eliwood as if it would break Armads' curse. As if they were in some fairytale where happy endings came at the final page--true love's kiss would give them all the years he desired to give Eliwood and more.

"Hector--" His cheeks bore a similar shade to his hair. His eyes were wide, expression breathless. "I… oh, Hector…"

"I--I couldn't go in there and not let you know how I felt," Hector mumbled lamely. "I wanted to do this earlier, but there wasn't any time, and… gods, Eliwood--how do I tell my best friend I've been in love with him as long as I can remember?"

When Eliwood fell silent, Hector wondered if kissing him first was the wisest thing to do. Damn, maybe he should have given the grandoise speech first. It would sting less if he got rejected, and made Eliwood uncomfortable.

Yet cruel words never came. Eliwood's gentle touch graced Hector's chin, fingers threading through his hair. "The same way that I would speak my heart true… that if we live to see another day, I would have said so first."

"…You're kidding." Another fine display of words. "I didn't--I didn't… expect you… I thought I had already lost your heart."

"It was always yours," Eliwood answered in a soothing tone. "For many years--for so many years, Hector."

"I…" His cheeks blazed a fierce red. "Had--had I not fallen asleep in numbers class, maybe I'd remember the exact years I've spent loving you."

Eliwood snorted with soft, bubbling laughter. He stood on his toes to press a gentle kiss against Hector's lips. "Then we will have to count the years we have to come."

Armads' curse buzzed through his veins. They had a time limit. Hector didn't know how long, or when, but he wouldn't have the luxury of growing old with Eliwood. His beard wouldn't match Graybeard's, and be able to joke about it with his husband who was equally old and gray. That alone almost gave him pause, stopped his words--but how could he not spill his heart out to the most beautiful man in Lycia?

"Hector?" Eliwood's thumb ran across his cheek. "Your expression… it is distant. What has come to mind?"

He closed his eyes. A shaky sigh left him. "….Not yet. Not now, Eliwood." He turned his head to kiss the palm of Eliwood's hand. "Let us see tomorrow first."

EliHecLyn Fluff Alphabet

A ctivities - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?

Hector loves to spar with his partners whenever he can. He doesn’t hold back, and he loves to see his partners getting excited when they win.

Eliwood enjoys a quiet night when possible, staying in the room. Perhaps they’re sharing a drink, perhaps Eliwood is reading out loud as Lyn listens and Hector falls asleep to his voice.

Lyn enjoys going on hikes. Lycia might not be Sacae, but there are still plenty of sights for them to see. Lyn can see them by herself, but it means more when she can see them with one or both of her boyfriends.

B eauty - What do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?

Eliwood can get lost in both Hector’s and Lyn’s eyes. It’s not uncommon to find him staring at his partners, zoned out, because he looks at the colors of their eyes.

Hector admires his partner’s strengths. He’s used to being the strong one, and while he is the strongest of the three, he loves that Eliwood and Lyn can hold their own in a fight, that he doesn’t have to keep an eye out for them.

Lyn admires Eliwood’s ability to talk down the fight. He tries to avoid battles when he can, and Lyn loves to see that. For Hector, she loves the way he gets her to push herself, training to get stronger and stronger.

C omfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?

Eliwood will try to talk down his partner when they’re upset. Even if they can’t speak, he will sit there and talk to them, trying to distract them until they’re able and ready to talk.

Hector doesn’t completely understand or know what to do, but he will sit and hold his partner if they will let him.

Lyn sits with her boyfriend and listens if they want to talk. If they don’t want to talk about it, she will talk to them about something else to get their mind elsewhere.

D reams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?

All three understand with their positions that they won’t be able to see each other as often as they wish, but they will try to spend all the time they can with each other. Whether they’re in Pharae or in Ostia, they will cherish all time together.

E qual - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?

Hector and Lyn are the more dominant of the three. This leads them to butting heads a lot, but it’s always in good fun. Eliwood is more passive and go with the flow.

F ight - Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?

Lyn and Hector are very stubborn, and they are the most likely to get in a fight / arguments. They will walk away to cool down before turning to each other. Normally, they make up by having a sparring match, blowing off steam, as neither are good with words.

Eliwood is more likely to try to speak with his partners after an argument. He allows Lyn and Hector to calm down before getting them to speak to him.

G ratitude - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?

Eliwood is very aware and grateful for what his partners do for him. Whether it’s something small or large, he tries to make note of it.

Hector doesn’t show it often, but he is grateful. He might not notice everything, but he will always try to return the favor when he can.

Lyn always makes note of the big things her boyfriends do for her. She might not notice every small thing, but she is very thankful for them anyway.

H onesty - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?

Eliwood and Lyn are very open, and they talk to their partners about everything. There is very little they or Hector don’t know about them.

Hector, given how he was raised in Ostia, tends to keep secrets. Nothing major as he’ll tell them the big things that happen in his day to day, but smaller things like what he talked about with a knight he won’t say. He doesn’t even think about it when he does; it’s just a habit.

I nspiration - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?

Eliwood and Hector grew up together. They were close as children, and they remained close as teens and into adulthood. They influenced each other in more ways than one. Then Lyn found her way in their life, and she opened them up.

Lyn was changed by Hector and Eliwood. They’re the reason she decided to stay in Lycia; they’re the reason she is no longer lonely anymore. They help her get used to the new life she’s living, and she helps Hector and Eliwood see from different points of views.

J ealousy - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?

Hector and Lyn don’t get jealous easily. They trust each other and Eliwood to make the right choices. Lyn might look or check out who they’re talking to if they’re a stranger to her, but Hector doesn’t pay much mind to it.

Eliwood gets jealous easier. He doesn’t mean it, but when he sees someone get too close to Hector or Lyn, he definitely sends a glare their way whether he realizes it or not. He’s vocal about his jealousy in private and gets reassured that they wouldn’t do anything outside the relationship.

K iss - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?

Eliwood is a soft kisser. His first kiss was with Hector, it was very hesitant, but it was so light that Hector almost immediately pulled him back into another kiss.

Hector is a more rough and passionate kisser. It took Lyn off guard the first time when they kissed. He couldn’t help but laugh at her expression when they pulled back.

Lyn prefers quick pecks more than anything; she doesn’t mind longer kisses, but they’re not her favorite. Her first kiss with Eliwood was very quick, and they were both fine with that.

L ove Confession - How would they confess to their s/o?

I’ve already done this here

M arriage - Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?

Marriage isn’t the first thing on their mind in their relationship. They didn’t know if a three way marriage would work or be able to be done, especially with their noble statuses. They never officially get married, but everyone around them knows they treat and call each other their husband(s) and wife.

N icknames - What do they call their s/o?

Eliwood tends to call Lyn ‘sweetheart’ and Hector ‘love’ the most

Hector calls both Eliwood and Lyn ‘dear’ or ‘hun’ the most. He doesn’t have a favorite to use for either of them

Lyn isn’t the biggest on giving out nicknames, but she has called her boyfriends ‘dear’ or ‘love’ before.

O n Cloud Nine - What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?

Eliwood likes to stare at his partners when there’s nothing too important in front of him at the moment. His mother enjoys teasing him for this.

Hector is very touchy and wears his romantic feeling on his sleeve. Anyone could glance at them together and know that he was in love.

Lyn smiles a lot when she’s around Eliwood and/or Hector. If she’s standing next to them, there’s a big chance that there’s a smile on her face.

P DA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?

Hector is the most open about their relationship. He loves to hold Eliwood’s and/or Lyn’s hand in public, not caring about what other nobles think. He can often be seen kissing their cheeks or even steal a kiss on the lips from them. Hector also loves to boast about his partners whenever he can.

Eliwood isn’t very big on PDA. He doesn’t mind holding hands or being close to his partners, but he is very reserved when it comes to talking about his relationship or kissing in public.

Lyn gets very flustered with PDA. Whether it’s just from holding hands or a kiss on the cheek, her face will turn bright red. At the same time, she loves to talk about her boyfriends whenever she can.

Q uirk - Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.

Eliwood has a soft voice that his partners find soothing. Both Hector and Lyn just like to hear Eliwood talk.

Hector has the ability to keep a tune when humming or whistling. Even when the three don’t want to talk, he’s able to fill the silence.

Lyn knows a few different languages from living in Sacae, and from that, she also knows songs and tales from the different cultures. Eliwood and Hector will ask her to sing or translate the tales when they need something to distract them.

R omance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?

Eliwood is very cliché when it comes to romance. He loves to fluster his partners with words or flowers or other gifts, but he will always do this in private.

Hector is very romantic in his words. He loves to praise and talk about his lovers around others, and he has been shown giving them things that made him think about them. He’s known by court to be very romantic.

Lyn isn’t the greatest with romance. Her lovers enjoy her being in the same room as them so that's what she does whenever she can. She’s not a big gift giver, but she does show her emotions with words.

S upport - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?

The three of them share a main common goal. They work together to keep Lycia on its feet while trying to get the territories to work closer together for peace. Hector focuses a lot on Ostia, and Eliwood focuses on Pherae. Lyn supports them both in any way she can.

T hrill - Do they need to try out new things to spice out your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?

Eliwood likes a good routine. He doesn’t like it changing when he can help it.

Hector and Lyn like to change their routines. Whether it’s small or large, neither of them like things to stay the same everyday.

U nderstanding - How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?

The three of them are all very good at reading each other and being able to tell their true feelings towards something. This is one reason why Hector struggles to not tell them important things going on in his life or with Ostia.

V alue - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?

Ostia and Pharae are important to Hector and Eliwood, and they build a lot of their life around it. At the same time, they always make time for each other and Lyn.

Lyn sees the relationship as the most important thing in her life. Yes, travel and her homeland are very important, as well as her friends, but this relationship forged how her life is currently going.

W ild Card - A random Fluff Headcanon.

Eliwood can’t do anything in the kitchen, no matter how much he tries, but he knows how to make a mean cup of tea. Hector and Lyn will refuse anyone else’s tea when Eliwood is around

Hector likes to randomly pick up his partners to see them smile. He can pick them both up at once.

Lyn likes to wear Eliwood’s and Hector’s clothes. They’re long on her, and her boyfriends love to see her in them.

X OXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?

Hector is very affectionate. He loves to hold onto his partners, whether they’re laying down and they’re spooning or they’re sitting in his lap. He can and will shower them with kisses.

Eliwood isn’t as affectionate as Hector, but if he’s able to, he clings onto his partners. He likes to hug them from behind before kissing them on the cheek.

Lyn isn’t as affectionate. She isn’t great at showing her emotions with actions, but she doesn’t mind being shown in love. She shows her affection in other ways.

Y earning - How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?

Eliwood can be seen staring off into space without Hector and Lyn around. His mother would tease him, and his knights know that he’s thinking about his partners.

When Hector is missing his lovers, he is often seen training more often. He uses it to distract himself from missing the two.

Lyn likes to wear Eliwood’s and Hector’s clothes when she misses them. She spends her time between Pherea and Ostia, and they always make sure to have one or two articles of clothes that Lyn finds comfort with in the territory.

Z eal - Are they willing to go to great lengths for the relationship? If so, what kind of?

Eliwood knows he wasn’t the greatest partner for a while as he was dealing with his grief of losing his father and becoming marquess of Pharea. However, even through his grief, he would defeat his relationship with the other two nobles, despite getting some backlash due to the nature of their relationship.

Before Uther passed, he gave Hector his blessing to follow his heart in any way it leads him. Knowing this, Hector has no issue defeating and fighting for his relationship. Nothing and no one will pull him away from his loves.

Lyn had the choice to return to Sacae, but she decided to remain in Lycia as Caelin became shared land between the two. She misses her life in the plains, but she wouldn’t leave their sides if given the choice again.

[spaceyhibiscus]

They’re good friends, but sometimes Eliwood seems a little nervous around Hector for some reason.

Had some fun with copics, perfectly aligning with my elihec brainrot :^)

THEM…

amelia just reminded me how based elihec is as a ship... miss those guys

guess who is missing elihec

[ragecndybars]

Top 5 favorite fics you've written!! (Your writing is so good I feel like I don't compliment it enough and I must remedy that!!)

making me compliment my own writing is a dirty trick jacks!!!! 😱 but here you have it!!

Oil. Maybe the fic I've spent THE most time agonizing over, EVER. It's an EliHec (Eliwood/Hector from FE7) angsty fic and I still think the imagery in it is some of the best I've ever written.

Ash and Emotion. My most popular fic, written for a ZeLink (Zelda/Link from Breath of the Wild) zine a while back. I'm still very proud of it and its pacing, and some of the dialogue is meh but some of it is among the best I've written.

Always Wanna Play (But You Never Wanna Lose). An AkiMina (Akihiko/Minato from Persona 3) fic that I ended up spending WAY too much time on but it turned out all the better for it! I think my character writing here was truly at its peak.

This is Alright. A Renora (Ren/Nora from RWBY) fic that I wrote for asexual awareness week quite a while back. By far the oldest fic on this list, but I think this one did hold up. It meant so much to me as someone on the ace spectrum and Renora has always been one of the ships of all time to me.

Butter. A Mother 3 oneshot, pure angst. I think my tone and narration voice for Lucas here worked perfectly and really carries the fic. Best fic I've written where the whole point is just "experience one very strong emotion".

thanks for the ask and for giving me a chance to talk positively about my work!! :)

EliHecLyn HCs - Getting Together

At the start of Blazing Blade, Eliwood and Hector were already together. They never told anyone they were together, but they were terrible at hiding it so everyone could tell.

Before Lyn joined, Hector was a little jealous to hear Eliwood call her beautiful, but he never would openily express this. Eliwood never mention it again but then Lyn joined.

Eliwood was right, and Hector agreed she was beautiful. He started butting heads with her a lot with their clashing personalities, but also as time went on, Hector continued it cause he was struggling processing his feelings towards Sacaen woman.

Lyn is unsure of Hector at first, especially when she losing a sparing match with him. He was strong and reliable, but very stubborn when he had his mind on something. She likes Eliwood, and they get along better. She doesn’t understand what Eliwood sees in Hector.

Then during a battle, Lyn and Hector started to fight close together, and both of them started to see each other’s personalities in their battle styles. It brought them closer together as Hector started to loosen up around Lyn, and Lyn did the same.

Eliwood was the first to catch feelings for Lyn, but his relationship with Hector was too important to him act on then. Lyn started catching feelings for Eliwood and Hector next, and she also decided not to act on these feelings. It was Hector who decided to take a stab in the dark and act on them.

One night, the three of them were the last ones awake besides who was on guard watch. They all sat around the fire, talking about the past battles and battles to come. It was peaceful, a rare peaceful moment. Hector sat between Eliwood and Lyn.

It was getting very late, and while Lyn was trying to stay up with the other two lords, her eyes were starting to get heavy. Hector noticed this and offered his shoulder for her to lean on. The way he said it, along with the blush on his face, caused Lyn and Eliwood to Hector’s feelings as he’s the hardest of the three to read.

Lyn would look at Eliwood to make sure it was okay, and when he nodded, she rested her head against Hector’s shoulder and closed her eyes. Hector placed a hand behind her to keep her from falling over. After another hour after Lyn fell asleep, Hector carried her to bed before rejoining Eliwood outside, where they would discuss what just happened with Lyn.

In the morning, the three of them took a moment to talk in private about the previous night. That’s when Eliwood and Hector confirm their relationship to the other and questions if Lyn would be interested in joining their relationship. They were very excited when Lyn agreed,,, Everyone knew of their relationship almost immediately. None of them were good at hiding.

Ending

The Three Lords

When her grandfather died, Lyn decided against taking of the tilte of Marquess of Caelin. Her lovers, Eliwood, Marquess of Pherea, and Hector, Marquess of Otsia, promised to keep an eye on the land as she focusing on raising their two children.
