@alflearweek Day 4: Pact Ring

I was going to do their actual clothes, but Alfred's blends too much with the pact ring (the colours line up perfectly!) so I thought I would put them in something a bit fancier 💙🩵

[fe-engage-positivity]

Alfred and Alear are such a cute couple. Like her long hair is perfect for braiding into flowers and you bet Alfred would do that all day long (Disney rapunzel style as an example). Alear carrying Alfred bridal style. Just. I love engage for giving us so many adorable couples to ship, but Alflear has got to be my favourite. Himbo x failwife dragon princess = cuuute!

A deep sleep, a true love’s kiss...

These two still have me in an absolute chokehold.

[fe-fictions]

Can you do Alfred and Kagetsu’s reactions to finding out s/o is pregnant?

(I've been sitting on this one a little while-- the two puppy dog husbands!!!!!)

Alfred: The golden retriever prince is naturally completely on board with the idea of starting a family with you.

It’s an intimidating idea, at first, until he remembers that you’re just another person, like he is at the end of the day.

Titles aside, you were two people who loved each other more than anything. And if you wanted a child with him, then he was going to do everything he could to provide that for you.

So when you finally break the news to him that your months of trying were successful, Alfred could hardly contain a sliver of emotion.

“Alear!! Oh, Alear!!” He wrapped you up in a massive bear hug, nearly knocking you over as he shifted between tears of joy and laughter. “We did it!!!”

“We did!” You giggled, enjoying the sunny glow of your husband’s happiness. “We’re officially going to be parents. In…I think they said I was two months along.” 

“Two months? Already?!” He gasped, “That means we only have to wait seven more instead of nine!! This is such great news, darling! Oh, my gods, we’re…w-we're going to be parents!!”

He then proceeds to pepper you in kisses from head to toe, revelling the bounty of good fortune that befell you both.

Alfred wants to tell everyone right away, but somehow you convince him to take a step back and just take in the moment…privately, between the two of you.

“I’m not ready for everyone to know jsut yet.”

“What ? You don’t want to say anything?? But Alear, you’re the Divine Dragon!! You’re my wife!!!! Everyone will want to know right away! Oh, and then we can have a wonderful celebration, a-and we can gather up the royal families and have everyone attend!”

“That’s what I want to avoid.” You replied, much quieter than your husband who was practically bouncing around with great excitement.

You took his hands, a shy flush creeping onto your cheeks.

“I just…want this to be just for us. At least for a little while longer.”

“Really?” He looked confused, as though the request you made wasn’t something he could comprehend. 

You squeezed his hand, smiling nervously.

“I’m very excited to have a baby with you, Alfred, and I know we’ll tell everyone and they’ll all be happy for us! But…right now, I just want it to be, you know…our thing.”

“Ohh…I see.” Alfred nodded, and beamed at his wife. “You want it to be our little family?”

“It just takes a lot of pressure off. Not the king’s heir, not the Divine Dragon’s child…just Alfred and Alear’s baby.”

“Just a normal papa, and a normal mama, who will soon be blessed with a beautiful baby.” He chimed in, drawing you into his chest and peppering your face with dozens of kisses.

You broke into a laugh, trying and failing to resist his sweet affection.

Alfred would indeed hold to his promise and would not let the announcement slip until you were ready. Whi ch was torture for him, because he wanted everyone to know how ecstatic he was! Thankfully you only made him wait a week or two…though he would claim it was a difficult week.

Mainly because his sister and friends were teasing him for acting so “creepy” when he was even more happy and excited than usual.

The surprise was worth it, though.

-------------------------

Kagetsu: He had already expressed to you how wildly in love with you he was. He thought it was impossible for him to love you more than he did already. 

There could not possibly be more room in his already full heart!

That’s what he thought; then you told him the news.

“Kagetsu…I’m with child.”

The impossible was achieved with those three small words.

“Y-you…you what?”

Kagetsu’s voice was barely more than a squeak. He was choked up with emotion, trying to process the news you just gave him.

You nodded your head, tears starting to build in your eyes as you repeated the news.

“I’m with child, Kage. I’m…I’m three months along, already.”

“You’re-?!” He gasped, his hands quick to grasp your shoulders. His eyes were blown wide, floored with the information you were giving him.

First you were pregnant, but now you were already three months along?!

“I-it explains all the weird behavior, doesn’t it? The sickness I was feeling, the headaches and the tiredness…Framme’s the one who confirmed it, and then we double and triple checked with Pandreo just to be sure.”

“Oh, Alear…oh, my Alear…!!” He could barely piece together a sentence, let alone a thought. 

Kagetsu, who was always so chatty and happy to tell you exactly how he’s feeling was speechless. It was shocking to witness.

It was all the swordsman could do to gather you up in his arms, and hug you to his chest as tight as he possibly could.

You were somehow able to wiggle your arms free, if only to loop them around his neck as he buried his face in your hair.

“Ah…I take it you’re happy about the news, then?” You asked with tentative optimism. Kagetsu gasped softly, and pulled back to look right at you.

The tears that had gathered in your eyes had already overflowed from his. But beyond the tearstained cheeks was a smile so full it made your own heart sing.

“I c-cannot be any happier than I am, right now, in this moment.” He replied with a deep sincerity,filling you with warmth.

That man truly loved you with every facet of his being.

You cupped his cheeks, wiping away the tears that just couldn’t be stopped. He kissed your palms, trailing kisses down your wrist before he found your forehead, your nose and at last, your lips.

“Oh, my wife.” He shuddered, stroking your hair, his heartbeat loud and thundering with joy against your hands. “Alear…Alear, we’re going to be parents!”

“We are. Before we know it, we’ll have a little one to show around the Somniel.”

“I can hardly wait!!” He grinned, “Alear, I didn’t think it possible but…I truly love you more than anything in the world.”

“I love you, too.” You kissed him, tenderly, earning yourself one last beautiful moment of peace and happiness before Kagetsu could contain himself no longer.

He made sure to announce to the whole world that he was, indeed, an expecting father. 

And that his brillaint, flawless, perfect, goddess-like wife who could do no wrong ever and he loved more than any living creature has ever loved something…was pregnant.

It took a while to live down that embarrassment (but he was so cute when he did).

In the least expected way

Read in ao3 here!

Hey hey! I did something for FE: Engage. I know it's been a few months since the game was released, but I had not had the time to work on stories for this game until now (and I do have a couple more that I'd like to finish in the future).

This one's a bit sad, cause I love to make characters suffer, but there's also some light.

I do hope you like it!

ok I’m back with the milk my bad

[dexjarxenoengage]

Have you ever noticed that Alear and the Four Royals acts as a Five Man Band? The story may not show that well, but their gameplay, nations and represented Emblems demonstrate that they are this trope perfectly. Veyle acts as the Sixth Ranger (actually 11th Hour Ranger). They best represent this trope as well because Alear, the Royals and Veyle are the only playable characters that can’t die on Classic Mode (oh and Vander too, but he’s just a mentor kind of guy).

The Five Man Band is among one my favorite tropes in media. Why? IDK why, it just is. I used to be a Power Rangers fan, five is usually among the highest these teams get to. In which case it becomes a Three plus two scenario where a Power Trio becomes a Five Man Band (Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder, and Jungle Fury come to mind).

I bring up this trope to talk about Fire Emblem Engage specifically, Alear, and the Four Primary Royals fit this trope. And it’s not just in team composition, IMO, the Emblems they are best known for (specifically in the Prologue cutscene) best give idea on why they fit the role in the team.

Alear the The Hero/Leader of the team; because obviously they are the Fire Emblem Lord, they are the Divine Dragon: the only one who can summon the Emblems who can save the world from the Fell Dragon. And just like any other Fire Emblem Lord in the franchise, if they are defeated, it’s a game over. Pretty typical Fire Emblem knowledge.

Alear’s most common Emblem is Marth. Marth is the first ever Fire Emblem Lord in the franchise, the idealistic leader that his loved ones trust and follows. Marth is the first of many sword wielding heroes in the franchise. Swords are a very common weapon type for heroes (Micaiah is the only Emblem in the main game that canonically never uses swords).

Alfred is the Lancer. Who usually acts a foil to the Hero/Leader, usually is their first/best friend/companion, and/or is the first to question any decision the leader/hero makes. Not every character of the archetype has to be a rival or a jerk (or in most cases both), Alfred is one of those examples. Alfred is the first Royal to join. Firene has the closest ties with Lumera, and Alfred appears in more cutscenes than any other Royal in the game. (Double points for having Lances as his primary weapon type).

The Emblem he uses in the Prologue is Lucina. Lucina is the not the central protagonist of Awakening, Chrom is. Even still, Lucina is a character who acts as an emotional foil to Chrom. More importantly, Lucina is the descendant of Marth, who happens to be Alear’s most associated Emblem.

Diamant is the big guy/muscle of Alear’s team. Brodia is the Kingdom of Might after all. Diamant is the most physically imposing with his main stats being his HP, Strength and Defense. Diamant is also the tallest and oldest member of the team (age being 25, Alfred is 21, Ivy is 20, Timerra is 18 and Alear is physically 17).

Diamant’s national Emblem is Roy, who gives Sword Power as an inheritance skill that allows Diamant to hit harder with a sword, but at the cost of avoid. Rise Above (Emblem Roy’s Engage skill) increases his level and stats along with them. Ironically, Roy was 15 years old in his games, Diamant is the oldest Royal, yet Roy is one of the younger FE lords next to Leif.

Next is Ivy, befitting of Elusia’s title of the Kingdom of Knowledge, she is the smart girl. Ivy has gone to school and was at the top of her class. (Studying is also one of her hobbies and likes items regarding them) Ivy is the most level headed of the Royals. Ivy is the only member of this main team that uses magic, and her ability to fly and heal is invaluable in a Fire Emblem game.

Ivy is associated with two Emblems rather than one. Lyn (the Emblem entrusted to Elusia) has the ability to summon doubles that can be used to distract the enemy. While Leif is an Emblem that switches between your current weapons it best suit the situation (often for the worst, unfortunately). It’s also worth noting that Soren is the DLC Emblem entrusted to Alt. Elusia. Soren is the Tactician of the Greil Mercenaries.

Finally, Timerra acts the emotional core to the team as the heart. Despite being far more politically savvy than what her peppy personality might suggest, she still is a genuine mood-maker in her supports where she attempts to get Ivy to open up and give perspective to Diamant on their ways of leading their countries. Her Queendom represents Freedom and is a very accepting person.

Her Emblem is Ike, and even if people mainly see him as a snarky guy, Ike is a very compassionate person. I mean, Ike would have to be a nice guy if he is the only person Soren is unfailingly kind to and is devoted to above everyone else. Ike’s Resolve (pun intended) is the thing that keeps the Greil Mercenaries from falling apart after his father’s death. Gameplay wise, Timerra with Ike act as a Critical Hit fighter with Wrath and Sandstorm. It takes a lot of effort and a bit of luck to make the most of her.

And finally, Veyle rounds out the team as the Sixth Ranger (doubles as 11th Hour Ranger, she is the last recruit in the main game). Sixth Rangers often comes joining in the team after a rivalry dispute and or brainwashing (Tommy Oliver (trope namer) and Zuko from Avatar comes to mind), Veyle is no exception. Veyle is the only other Non DLC Dragon units in the game. Most Sixth Rangers often (like the Red Ranger) have a power no other Ranger does.

Veyle doesn’t have a designated Emblem outside of Marth (who her evil self used, and she has boss dialogue with Emblem Marth in his Paralogue), but I consider Emblem Alear to be the closest thing Veyle will get to a designated Emblem. Her evil self also wears Alear’s Ring in the bad ending.

The major difference between Alear’s team, and the Four Hounds led by EVeyle is that the Hounds were already formed long before the story began. Alear and the Four Royals don’t officially form until more than halfway through Engage’s main story chapters. And yet these guys became a real team where the Hounds failed.
