#HC: Owain

[fademirrored]

minor headcanons: critters: alpha world state

Caje Cousland:

The mabari: His name is Squirrel. He is the most quintessential mabari that ever was a mabari. He's a sort of earthy brown with black points and usually goes paintless, but has the Kaddis of the Trickster warpaint when Caje knows they're going into something big. Caje loves Squirrel dearly, but one gets the sense that if Squirrel hadn't imprinted on him, Caje would not have any animals.

The horse: After Awakening, when Caje has well and truly taken up his role as Anora's husband, he has a horse. He's an Akhel-Teke palomino gelding named Valerian. He's very pretty and very impressive, which is his primary purpose. Caje's relationship with Valerian is neutral, politely. Valerian is very well trained and tolerates Caje, who doesn't really spare him a thought when he's not in the saddle. Most of Valerian's care is left to stable hands, unless Caje's on the road and has no spare hands to care for his horse for him.

Cyrus Hawke:

The mabari: His name is Decker. He's only about 9 months old at the start of the Blight, so he does live to see the Chantry Boom, but at that point he is geriatric enough that Cyrus has taken to leaving him home to be babied by Sandal more often than not. Early on, though, he goes with Cyrus everywhere except the privy. He's got coloration similar to a rottweiler and he's a big mush. You could hand him an egg and he would carry it without cracking it.

Owain Trevelyan:

The hart: Early on, before they've even had to leave Haven, Owain and his party find a small herd of horses and harts in the Hinterlands. No one is sure if they were deliberately released or if they escaped during all the fighting, but regardless, there's no way to figure out where they came from and they're clearly not wild, so the Inquisition claims them. Among them is a wild hart. Owain calls dibs and names him Moo. I'm going to be blunt: he is a megaloceros with less-stupid antlers. He is a draft horse-sized elk, with stereotypical elk coloration. With a bit of a pot belly, because Owain's never had a pet before and he loves Moo immensely, even if he bellows like a congested trumpet.

Aneirin Trevelyan:

The dracolisk: While Aneirin initially uses whatever horse is free from the stables, he does eventually acquire his own dedicated steed. She is a sharp-tail dracolisk named Ozone. She's predominantly a sort of muted olive-y green with almost leopard-like spots, but dark red-brown points on her face, legs, and tail. As far as Aneirin is concerned, she is the goodest girl who has never done anything wrong in her life, and for him, that is true. He gets to feed her an appropriate amount of treats every day and still keep all of his fingers. He can ride her without getting thrown and she'll even stop on a dime precisely when he asks. If Nye is not at Skyhold, however, stable hands draw straws to see who has to deal with her, because when Nye is not around, Ozone considers herself valid to eat fingers.

The falcon: Nye had a falcon as a teenager in Ostwick, and Owain gifts him a new one after the events of Inquisition to try to get himself back into Nye's good graces after a terrible and prolonged falling out. It doesn't work, but Nye does like the bird. She's a grey falcon named Swifty, and she likes Nye about as much as can be expected, which mostly means she comes back during a hunt and only tries to eat his ears and fingers a little bit.

What do you think Awakening Trio’s spouses call them once they’re back in Ylisse?

hi anon!! thank you so much for the ask 🩷 thats a good question… honestly i think it depends both on which member of the awakening trio it is and also who their spouse is? under cut because i ended up writing a LOT sorry 😭

normally when i think about post-fates awakening trio, im thinking about my preferred pairings for all of them (lucisev, lasnyx, azuodin) and so for all of those i generally tend towards their original names? i think that inigo, sentimental as he is, would prefer his original name regardless of spouse, honestly. whether or not that’s nyx doesn’t exactly change that for me, when i really think about it. maybe if he stayed in nohr, like with xander (when it comes to xanlow im not sure if i prefer them staying or leaving? both sexy… both sad…) he might just suck it up but i think he prefers inigo.

for owain, though, i think it depends! for him with azura specifically, i think they would go with calling him owain, because 1) i think he realizes that azura needs space from everything in nohrshido and a ylissean name as opposed to a nohrian one is already a huge help with that and 2) its HIS name and he holds a lot of value in that! but on that second point, the weird thing about owain is that hes actually… super down with changing his name. its odd at first, but unlike someone like laslow who’s kind of in this feeling of limbo with the identity change, odin kinda jumps at it and uses the change in name to help more strictly define his persona as the “legendary hero of darkness” aching blood and twitching hands thing he’s got going on. not only that, but wheras owain’s identity is already cemented in being the second (or third if lucina has a sibling. yikes!) prince of ylisse who’s pushed to the side in favor of his “better” or “stronger” family members, odin gets to choose what and who he is. and so, i think owain is really just. it depends, because even with all that said, owain is still the name he got from his mom, and it’s the name that saw him through hell and back! i think if he were like with niles or beruka, he’d take owain. if he were with like, charlotte or elise, he’d take odin. i think his relationships and how they come about would definitely influence his pick.

for severa… well, like i said, my favorite pick for her is lucina (oohhh u wanna pine for your lost love while in another world soooo bad ooohhhhh) and so, when she comes back, because lucina has known severa forever, i think she just goes with that. HOWEVER. if she brings back a nohrshido spouse… i think she’d like to stick with selena. she’s in a very similar spot that owain was in in terms of using the name change as a new identity, but unlike owain, she just… goes for it. no reservations, no errors, she dumps severa behind and immediately falls into her role as selena and i think she’s much happier for it. i think for her, severa was too much trapped in the shadow of her past and her mother, so once she’s given the opportunity to become selena, that all just kinda… falls away. not that it doesn’t affect her anymore—it does! in her supports with like, subaki, for example, her mother and her insecurities are still there. and her supports with odin show she does still long for her home, but i also think that she’s a lot better at realizing that, despite everything, you can’t actually go back to the past and fix how fucked up the three of them are, and being stuck in that grief isn’t worth much to her! so she accepts selena and everything that comes with that identity. and once she’s in ylisse again, just because she’s home, it doesn’t mean she’s going back. now that she’s experienced what it’s like to be able to step out of everything that’s restricted her for so long, like her name that attaches her too much to her mom, i think she wouldn’t mind keeping selena. in private, and especially if her spouse is like, lucina or inigo or owain or noire or laurent, maybe she wouldn’t mind hearing severa every now and then. but publically (and probably legally. #paperwork) she’s selena for the rest of time. also i do hc that even if her spouse is ylissean, she just kinda falls back into mercenary work, so. professionally also, she’s def known as selena. she said FUCK that old name im not going back. cordelia calls her severa though.

*chants* Morfudd and Owain, Morfudd and Owain, Morfudd and Owain.

[fore-seer]

i don’t really ship owain with anyone in either game he’s in but he’s such a good dad to ophelia that i can’t imagine him not having her, and i had the idea yesterday that it’s severa he approaches about wanting a kid bc after their time in fateslandia with inigo the three of them are bonded for life anyway and she’s the only one he trusts with something like that

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

happy pride month (mod goldmary + everyone)!!!

i am here 2 finally present Awakening “would they do drag?”: second gen edition 🌈✨️

Owain: He's dabbling in crossplay but hasn't discovered full drag yet. I think he goes through a v brief phase of being defensive abt it (like calling it ‘guyliner’ n shit) before he realizes no one cares and he can do what he wants. once he's worked it out tho? ohhh my god. Everything is happening. in fact I'm not entirely unconvinced Odin Dark isn't just one of his drag personas.

m!Morgan: dresses gnc but I don't think he'd seriously do drag. a skirt is being worn but like… in an emo/scene kid way. u feel me?

Brady: definitely wants to serve deep down but is far too self conscious. he's had the opportunity before and turned it down bc he feels no amount of makeup will make him ‘pretty’ & therefore it's not worth trying. makes me sad bc i dont agree with him at all… like genuinely I think he'd fucking slay and he DESERVES to feel beautiful for once but agh. brady. sometimes you can accept yourself a bit too hard and end up chained to that version of yourself. I think he's done this. hes sold on the idea that hes uggo when thats not at all true….... pls brady u can be pretty too let me help u plssssssss 🥹

Yarne: no, but not because he’s opposed to the gender fuckery aspect. It’s more that the performance part would make his heartrate skyrocket and he’d pass out probably. also I can't imagine makeup playing nice with fur. maybe if there were taguel specific gender roles he’d play with those but uhh... yeah. on the bright side i do think he'd look lovely with some flowers braided thru his ears or similar.

Gerome: ok. so. he's definitely gay. he's definitely at the club. but i do not think he is a queen. gerome instead i believe is a paying customer. he tips very well, and though he sits at the back and doesn't even clap or anything hes still spending bucks and doesn't cause a fuss so hes become a beloved regular. I DO think there's a tiny part of him deep down that wants to queen it up, but that would take like an entire ocean's 11 heist to pull off (i'm talking Make Chrom Transition levels of difficulty here). there's also a serenes page claiming awakening's files suggest gerome might have been a woman at some point in dev so uhh take that as you will i guess 🤷‍♀️

Inigo: remember when his feh dancer alt came out in like 2017 and everyone was so fucking happy for him? because awakening makes it SO clear he secretly wants to be a dancer more than anything else (which for some reason is said to be a fem role even tho we've had male dancers before)?? and bc we Know that his current role as a 'gentleman' swordsman not only is a mask used 2 cope, but also makes him absolutely miserable deep down???

yeah.

call it ‘just a hc’ call me a conspiracy theorist but I fully believe inigo is 100% a dev intended tranfem allegory and that reading her as a closeted/repressed woman makes so much sense that I am genuinely shocked at how uncommon this reading seems 2 be. like her paralogue is titled 'a man for flowers' ffs. they may as well be calling her a friend of fuckin dorothy's at this point yet i stilllll come across ppl talking abt 'canonically queer fe characters' and they do not includer her in the list 💀

.....anyway its drag until she works it out. In the meantime I think Inigo is the most insufferable egg known to man and every time she says something akin to 'i love girls i wish i was a girl :(' severa gets one step closer to popping a blood vessel.

Laurent: OK YAY the final guy. I kept going back and forth on him bc i truly believe he could just be a boring gay, but he could Also have a secret slay side.... i wasnt sure. sooo eventually I just polled it. here are the results:

Surprisingly an overwhelming yes happened pretty much straight away! and now in hindsight I realize that researching and gathering data is probably how Laurent would have wanted things lmao

so i present now my 'informed' opinion that Laurent is very seriously into drag. Owain and her become drag sisters, tho they dont really hang out outside of the club. I do think drag is lowkey her second job (accountant by day cunt-out-ant at night etc) and she's probably going to earn enough that she ends up running her own club one day. with enough hot springs therapy sessions I think she could convince inigo to come work for her also. AND, as one person said on my poll (very important): "the hat stays on" 👍

so there you have it thats awakening done!!

the only other games I know well enough for drag assignment are three houses and path of radiance (tho planning on replaying sacred stones and maybe the other 2 gbas at some point) so idk i'll see if I can come up with anything for those.

otherwise this has been v fun! ty for enjoying my opinions :]

[odbuoyjemmity]

what are your headcanons on the other wundersmiths of the age of east winds?

omg i meant to answer this and then. left it in my inbox for almost three months. mea culpa

owain: canonically can't sing but my hc is that he plays violin and piano beautifully. he grows a moustache when he's like eighteen like its a really thin horrible thing until he's twenty five and then it looks decent

elodie: is a lesbian. and has like no problem getting into relationships but they never last longer than three months so she has a whole bunch of ex girlfriends and all of the breakups are horrifically messy. average wunsoc member has ten ndas about their breakups statistical error. lesbians elodie who lives in the basement and has four bad and scandalous breakups every year for around twenty years is a statistical anomaly and should be ignored

ezra: an absolute prodigy at weaving. kind of mediocre at like normal schoolwork. that boy cannot structure an essay for the life of him

odbuoy: he does 90% of the pranks at proudfoot house but is really charismatic so he gets away with it most of the time

rastaban: has that beard all english teachers have like the scuff with the too-much moustache. also coiffs his hair with way too much product

griselda: really mean if you piss her off like the most cutting comments known to man but kind if you're polite. she looks super fragile but she can roundhouse kick someone

decima: her room is an acquarium with a bed in it and like no glass its just water woven so specifically that the fish stay in and the water doesn't touch her. she has a pet koi whom her predecessor owned and its huge

brilliance: loses all her reading glasses all the time. sub nine has them in almost every room because she takes them off her face and then forgets to bring them with her. every time

mathilde: really enjoys depressing and gothic poetry that no one else is into but they all listen to her recite it because she locked the doors and they can't get out

Hidden Truths rant & "Canon Pairings"

Okay, while I'm kind of on the topic of Selena, Laslow, (and also Odin) (see my last post), I wanna complain about something people always tend to bring up about Hidden Truths, and the "canon" fathers of the Awakening trio.

Literally nothing is unconfirmed in Hidden Truths. The only parent that is disqualified is Chrom being Laslow's father, because he explicitly states that he cannot perform the Awakening in main story. Sorry, Chrom x Olivia fans.

But, let's talk about Severa's mention of her hair changing color. In canon, her hair color is that bright red. No father can give her that exact shade of bright red. The closest are Ricken and Gregor, who give her more of a muted red. And for those of you saying "well, that's still really close!". I wanna talk from personal experience about making the slightest change to your hair color. I'm a brunette. I dyed my hair a darker shade of brown recently, and it is incredibly noticeable to me. Think about blonde hair. Take a shade of golden blonde and put it next to platinum blonde. If you had naturally golden blonde hair and bleached it platinum, you would notice a difference. The same thing goes for red. Not every shade of red is the same. Even if Gregor or Ricken was her father, going from a more muted red to Roy, fire engine red, that's gonna look different on you if you're not used to that. So, no matter if her dad was Ricken or Libra, her reaction to her hair changing color doesn't disqualify ANY of her potential fathers. The only one that is MAYBE out of the question is if you gave your Male Robin red hair and married him to Cordelia, but at no point in outside media has Robin ever been depicted with a color that isn't white hair (not counting Smash Bros alts, even then Female Robin is the one to have the red hair alt in Smash 4, and I don't think IS considers Gay Awakening to be canon, unfortunately). So, with that in mind, even Robin is a potential canon father for her. Just as much as Stahl or Lon'qu or Gregor or Frederick or whoever you're pairing Cordelia off to.

And as for Owain, yes, that SHOULD disqualify Libra, Vaike, and possibly Henry and Robin as his potential fathers. If he ever mentioned the fact that his hair had changed colors! I have checked like 10 times. There is no mention EVER of him bringing up the fact that his hair color has been changed. He only mentions the fact that his Brand is gone. You know why? Because out of the trio, he's the only one who can actually get that hair color in canon without his mom marrying Robin. The goal of this intro is to make any and all hints of who their fathers could be completely ambiguous. By adding the fact that Owain hair color was altered, that completely undoes the entire point of why specifically Severa brought up her hair color change in the first place.

Laslow doesn't mention anything, but it is important to note that no matter what, his hair color also changed, because there is also no way to get that grey hair in canon. And call me crazy, but I actually don't like many hair colors on him, but I think the grey works the best on him. Just random side note. And yes, Laslow is the only one to have a father deconfirmed, with there being a lot of proof saying that Chrom is probably not his father. With no mention of the Brand, to saying he can't do the Awakening, to flirting with Lucina in Amiibo battles, I think that's enough proof to say that they kinda shot that one down. You can still headcanon if you want! I'm not saying that you're not allowed to HC anything, but I do think that it's probably not canon, because LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE PAIRING IN AWAKENING AND FATES IS NOT CANON.

I don't CARE that "oh, so-and-so has a lot of similarities, it's canon". Nothing is canon. Sure, there are a lot of pairings that make more sense than others, but omg please stop saying that something is canon when nothing in these games are. The only canon pairings I can think of in either of these games are Mikoto/Anankos, Mikoto/Sumeragi, and Garon/all of his concubines. I have a lot of pairings that I absolutely love. Hell, if you check my last post, I'm over there talking about how I love the similarities between Resplendent Selena and Resplendent Soleil's uniform. Do I ship Laslow/Selena? Yes. Do I think it's both of their best support lines? Yes. Does that make it canon? Absolutely not. Selena/Laslow is just as canon as Laslow/Effie to them. Selena/Subaki is an easter egg at best. They didn't create Caeldori with the intention of her being Selena's daughter, they created her because of a damn popularity poll, then probably went, "oh hey, Cordelia and her mother are here! In that case, let's add a little something if people wanna do it!". They didn't create ANY character to be the "canon" pairing of anybody else. Sure, maybe they had preferences, but again, NOTHING IS CANON. Even Oboro having a crush on Takumi doesn't make that pairing canon. The only way it would be "canon" is if, say in Heroes, Oboro's bridal alt had her yell "This is what I wore when I married Prince Takumi of Hoshido! We did that right after the events of Birthright, when he told me he was helping me build my fashion line so I could be my own woman! And then we ended up having a son named Kiragi!". That would make it canon. But we all know they would never do THAT, because they would have a horde of Leokumi fangirls at their doors within minutes (no shade btw, it's one of my fav Leo ships too). Just as you never hear Laslow running around and yelling "I have the Brand of the Exalt in my right eye because my dad is Chrom!" Nor do you hear ANY of his potential kids saying that shit, except for Lucina, who is literally canonically Chrom's kid no matter what you do. The only Chrom pairing that is deconfirmed (sans Olivia if you wanna count the stuff I just mentioned) is the village maiden, because in Engage he mentions having 2 kids. Which does technically mean that Chrom/Male Robin is more canon than Chrom/Maiden.

Once again, I reiterate. I ship a lot of pairings in these games. I'm pretty vocal about the ones I love and hate. But I'm aware that my pairings are just as canon as everybody else's. I ship Sakura with Kaden. You might ship with with Saizo or Leo. All 3 are just as possible to be the real one, even if I don't like Leo/Sakura. That doesn't make it an invalid pairing

Anyways, that's my rant. I've got a lot of opinions regarding the shipping aspect of this game, if you couldn't tell

[tsukumocest]

Fellow Chromcina shipper, share with me your HCs and thoughts?

OMG YES also YAY a fellow leomilla shipper that’s awesome i love them :))))

been replaying awakening so they r on my mind a lot

I think chrom since he’s not the brightest would be the one to go “uhh time travel/alternate universe means it’s fine” while lucina is like “WHAT THE FUCK I FUCKED MY DAD”

for sure he was kinda into her before the daughter reveal and then when he figures it out he’s like damn.. but she’s still hot…..

also all their parent child stuff is so genuinely sweet it makes me want to add cute little kisses to it all. one sword and a world of troubles 😞 noo chrom you can fix it give her your other sword 😞 marry her

she’s mostly inspired by genuinely wanting to save the future but in rare moments she’s like “…and then I can smooch my dad”. I feel like most of the future kids would think this is normal because they all also have their own weird daddy/mommy issues going on. owain in particular would be like Hell Yes Cousin Get The Guy (My Uncle)

then chrom’s wife’s reaction depends on who it is but you know what man he’s the exalt he can do what he wants

[threehousing]

in honor of me finishing awakening. do you have any hcs on who's the oldest and the youngest kid 👁️👁️ (i don't remember if we've discussed this already) morgan is obviously certified baby but is cynthia older than owain. does severa get to call inigo a child. discuss

MY ASSIGNMENT IS DONE SO NOW IM DISCUSSING

okay okay. I'm gonna do this by age when they get sent back maybe?? Obviously their ages get all messed by afterwards because some of them are there longer than others (cough Laurent cough)

I can sooooo be persuaded differently on these tho. persuade me.

Lucina <- canonically the oldest, BUT if I had my way I'd have her not be? I think it'd be fun if there was a kid or two older than her.

Inigo <- not that much younger than Luci, maybe a month or two?

Noire <- again, not much younger than Inigo

Yarne <- bigger gap I think, maybe a year?

Gerome <- month or two younger than Yarne

Kjelle <- few months younger than Gerome

Brady <- year young maybe

Owain <- a few months younger.

Cynthia <- JUST younger than Owain. Haunts her every day.

Severa <- is a BABY. HAUNTS HER EVERY DAY.

Nah <- closer in age to morgan

Morgan

[the-winters-prince]

Arthurian thoughts:

-Gawain x Lancelot is a lot more common than I thought because that would mean Gawain is banging his uncle's friend~Oooh Scandalous(side note how big do you think the age gap would be)

-Too many people forget Owain has fae blood in him, and that certain fae have a weird fixation with golden hair(aka blondies)

-Eternal grieving mother Guinevere hurts me

-Arthur has so many manwhores working under him, all these men are trying to get fucked it's funny

Lancelot x Gawain shocked me first, but then I discovered that Lancelot is much much younger than Arthur and Guinevere. Problematic age gap but not in the way you may think. Lancelot is younger than Mordred in Vulgate (x). I hc that he's 10ish-15ish years younger than Guinevere (maybe more I view her as a part supernatural kind of sorceress who doesn't age. Basically the light version of Morgana) and 5-10ish years older than Gawain. I don't have specific ages in mind. I prefer Lancelot to be older than Gawain that creates a natural mentor/protegee elder brothers/younger brother/ co-worker age difference. <- confusing myself with what I'm trying to say. I don't ship them though.

my current hc is that Guinevere doesn't want children and that's why she didn't get any. non-traditional mother who dgaf about her sons' death and only gets horrified when she is reminded Arthur will want to put another baby in her womb, because he needs a new heir. She'd only want Lancelot's baby when she learns about Galahad's existence and she'd only do it to score off Elaine. Morgause and Guinevere are wire mother and cloth mother to me.

that's cute! I love that his cold obsession leads him to obsess about a blonde and want to cut off their hair, because he thinks it sparkles so prettily

[fademirrored]

minor headcanons: weaponry

Caje uses a longsword and a very well reinforced round shield that doubles as a weapon just as much as a defense

Cyrus uses a staff with a long blade on one end and a jasper (dragon's blood, specifically) orb on the other end

Owain uses a staff with a blue crystal spike on one end, framed by a pair of spikes, and a serrated, single-edged blade on the other end. eventually, he also uses a spirit blade

on the field, Aneirin uses a horse bow with a 60-pound draw weight, combined with explosives as necessary. if he's being set up somewhere to act as a sniper, he uses a war bow with a 180-pound draw weight, also combined with explosives as necessary

Darrick uses a short sword and an alarming hunting blade that may as well be a short sword

Rigel switches between short swords, a chain knife, and gas grenades/flasks as the situation demands

Oleander uses a hook sword and a sickle

Temry uses short bow initially, but switches to a crossbow pretty early on. they resort to a boot knife when cornered

Madry uses a short staff with a short, stabbing spike on one end and a large, sharpened hook on the other end. it is used as a melee weapon as often as it's used as a magical aid

Petrichor uses a montante

[sieglinde-freud]

funniest reading of inigo fire emblem is demi aroace whos never felt attraction in his life and he just has no fucking idea. hes only been going after women bc he legitimately thinks thats what women want as a true feminist (and bc mommy said so) and really does think that thinking women are pretty is equal to attraction so when he actually does feel something at some point in his life it hits him like a bullet train five times over

[gingersnaptaff]

Give us some headcannons about Pwyll?

Hi, anon!! Hope ur okie! Ohhhh, Pwyll, Pwyll, Pwyll, never was a man more stupider than him. (And u can take Rhiannon's word on that!)

Okay, so, Pwyll never gets a family in The Mabinogion, but I hc his dad is the founder of the Kingdom of Dyfed, Eochaid, Mac Artchorp. (5th century king, Irish. Taken from medieval Irish narrative The Expulsion of the Déisi) Pwyll was an only child which explains why he is uh... so forthright (read: dumb) because his parents lavished praise on him from an early age because they felt bad he didn't have siblings. This was compounded by the fact Eochaid died quite early in Pwyll's life, forcing him to ascend to the throne when he was around 14 or so.

His mam, Angharad, helped him run the kingdom and when she died of Yellow Plague it ruined him emotionally. He became very closed off and surrounded himself with his foster-brothers like Teyrnon!! (Teyrnon who would later unwittingly foster Pwyll's son, Pryderi.) He left the running of Dyfed to them while he galavanted around Glyn Cuch each year because that's where his mam had a summer residence she used to retreat to. (It's also where Pwyll was born.)

After the events of Arawn and Hafgan and everything he's super good at governing and when he gets married to Rhiannon it's actually a really good partnership until, uh, y'know... the cannibalism accusations. Then they don't really speak. (I am mirroring his behaviour with Arawn's wife here. But. Worse.) They tip-toe around each other whenever Rhiannon isn't forced to become a horse, and their relationship doesn't really recover.

He LOVES hunting. Like you would expect it because that's how he ends up body-swapping but, he PROPERLY LOVES IT. He sleeps with his hounds if he goes on an expedition, he'll be the first one to chase their quarry, he literally doesn't give a shit if it's unbecoming to act likes he's a hermit in ragged clothes he WANTS TO HUNT, DAMNIT.(Normally it's Teyrnon who is like 'Pwyll, buddy, brother, bestie, u have a kingdom to run pls stop.')

In later life he goes blind. (I'm basing this on Gruffudd ap Cynan who did go blind and still ruled until he was like mid-eighties(?) He's crabby but in the end he and Rhiannon do reconcile a little. The sad thing is Pryderi's away fighting in Ireland, so he misses his father passing away as well as his funeral. Their relationship was fairly distant even though Pryderi was his dad's Penteulu (again basing this off my bestie boi Hywel ap Owain Gwynedd who - it's speculated - was his dad's penteulu.) and therefore was more or less his chief bodyguard.

Pwyll is absolutely an introvert. (Same, bestie.) He tends to let Rhiannon do the talking during the early days of their marriage because she's much better at it than he is. Also, he likes to listen.

Fuckin LOVED Cigfa. When she married Pryderi Pwyll was bouncing off the walls. They used to play Gwydbwyll together (hysterical when u consider I hc Pwyll made the game up. Like, come on, it has his name in it. I had to do it.) and she fuckin beat him.

He loves knitting actually. He does teach Pryderi, which is why in the third branch pryderi takes so readily to stitching shoes. Both love knitting socks. What? The court thinking their king shouldn't be lowering himself to knitting? When he sticks a knitting needle in ur eye then you'll reevaluate ur position. 🙂‍↕️)

LOVES SINGING. Excellent tenor voice.

Invites Arawn and his wife over for festivals. Pryderi and Rhiannon continue this tradition after Pwyll dies. Arawn is - and I cannot stress this enough- Pwyll's best bud after Teyrnon. When Pwyll dies Arawn genuinely, genuinely breaks down. He ensures that Pwyll's shade is treated with the utmost respect when it crosses into Annwfn, and also assures Pryderi that Annwfn will aid in defending Dyfed if needed/if he can aid Pryderi in any way then he need only dispatch a message.

Hey, also, Pwyll got Rhiannon her birds. Courtship gift, innit. He defo did not message Arawn going 'DO U HAVE BIRDS? CAN I HAVE SOME ?THEYRE FOR MY COOL AF WIFE-TO-BE OKAY HELP?!' Arawn is like uhhh *mouthing to his wife* help me. His wife, Alaw, is just like 'yeah how many birds do u want?'

Pwyll. Had. A. Rivalry. With. Math fab Mathonwy. Nobody knows why, but they did. (If u gotta know it's cuz Pwyll travelled to Gwynedd to forge an alliance and got so drunk he mouthed off to Math that Arawn's magic was better than Math's. Jury is still out on who's magic is better.)

When Pryderi is about 12 Pwyll takes him birdwatching. They had a v distant relationship (both v tempestuous in diff ways, the whole golden claw thing, Pryderi being appalled at how his mam was treated) but that was probs one of the best moments of both their lives. I will just say Pryderi has mixed feelings about his dad and his mam and largely considers Teyrnon to be his 'real dad.'

ANYWAYS, hope u enjoyed these hc's anon! Thank u for asking about Wisdom boi.

#im thinking about them again. owain just works SO well as ricken’s son imo they echo each other in interesting ways #they both want their friends to take them more seriously but where ricken tries to change himself to achieve it owain refuses to #which makes sense bc i think a big part of ricken n lissa’s dynamic would be helping each other realize they can grow up at their own pace

EVA YOU ARE BLOWING MY MIND

Gimme some Ricken!Owain headcanons since you also ship Ricken and Lissa (or was that another Emblem Tumblr person?)

no that was definitely me, or at the very least i am one of them! as for headcanons it’s hard to imagine owain being any different than he is, but i think when he was growing up ricken actually encouraged his antics! i think once he’s an adult ricken realizes he was trying to grow up way too fast, and he doesn’t want that for owain, to the point that owain ends up going a little too far in the other direction sometimes. they don’t have quite the same dynamic when owain travels back to the past, especially since they’re basically the same age there, but they’re still very close; they both know very well how it feels to be dismissed and underestimated by enemies and allies alike, so they lean on each other when it gets rough.

teniendo en cuenta que, dijiste hace poquito que ya no consideraban a Escocia y a Gales como hermanos de Inglaterra.

En el au humano (no el de charlie) en el que Agustina y Arthur se casan, Arthur sería hijo único? O tendría algún vínculo con ellos?

Por otro lado, Extraño muchísimo el au de Charlie ¿Hay algún hc o dato que quieras tirar de él en la actualidad? 😢

En el AU humano, Owain (Gales) sería el hermano mayor de Arthur, por parte de un matrimonio anterior de su madre, y se llevarían 10 años, no tuvieron una relación cercana. Con Escocia no sé, no he pensado para él un rol en ese AU, tal vez fuese un pariente lejano o un compañero de colegio de Arthur con el que se cagarían a trompadas en el patio de la escuela (tendrían la misma edad kjjj).

Ay me da ternura que les gusten mis delirios místicos con el au del bb Charlie sjjasj al día de hoy tendría casi cinco años y me gusta imaginar que además del fútbol, le fascinan los dinosaurios. Eso le encanta a Tina porque tiene mucho para mostrarle sobre dinosaurios argentinos! Además, tiene un talento innato para la percusión, así que Arthur le regaló un miniset de batería para que empiece a practicar desde pequeño y tanto él como Tina lo ayudan y lo acompañan tocando la guitarra a veces 🤑 es una buen método para que practique concentración, coordinación y que descargue toda su energía ahaha
