Hi, do you happen to have a link to some meta you once mentioned about FE3H, that SS->AM->VW->CF makes the most sense for Edelgard and Byleth? I would love to read that

i don't, i'm sorry!! 😭 i've tried to find it again multiple times but haven't had any luck - i believe it was on reddit, but i haven't been able to find the right thread again.

the OP's explanation was that playing SS first immediately has you experience edelgard's betrayal in the most personal way, while playing AM and VW then gives you all the rest of the information you need about the world/conflict and edelgard personally to do the black eagles route over and save her this time in CF... but that's the extent of what i can remember to repeat ;_;

sorry again, i really wish i could find it

[zeearts]

uh so i finished the Azure Moon route on my first ever play through of my first ever fire emblem game and i'm not playing anything else cause i'm obsessed with these two

The irony of Fire Emblem fans arguing about who was "right" in Three Houses... The entire theme of the game is bringing to light how everyone is biased and jaded and no one has the full story. If you only choose to play a single path, there are tons of "plot holes" that can only be filled when you choose a different side. When discussing their choices, it should be acknowledged that the characters don't have the privilege of perspective and hindsight that the player does.

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

I don't think we acknowledge how interesting a character Mercedes is. Like she gets boiled down to 'group mum clumsy hehe'.

Like that's the woman who told her brother he was right to want to kill her because she needed to atone for abandoning him in an abusive household. Mercedes was 9, and Emile was 8. She's lived with that guilt for 13 years, even though she was a child. So much so that when he says he wants to kill her she says 'you are within your rights'. He snaps out of his murderous rage because he's so surprised that she will let him kill her. She thinks she deserves to die for what she did (which was something she had little to no control over when she was a vulnerable child)

She doesn't hate the crest system, but does hate the class system. She is aggressive to nobles who adore nobleness and harsh when she needs to be.

She has an amazing support chain with Sylvain which has her calling out his bull so many times. But she also talks about her past and is concerned that it bored him. Sylvain recognises it as what it is a tragic story that a child shouldn't have suffered through. Mercedes thought that being used for a crest and then being made homeless was a boring story? she's so used to this sort of thing being the norm that she thinks its dull and is happy to share it.

Then you have her and Sylvain making silly jokes with each other about marriage and kids

and then the conversation gets more insightful because they discuss Sylvain's experience with being assaulted/ harassed, and recognises all the signs and how he acts because she's been through that as well. She tells him she 'understands the pain you've had to carry'.

so to summarise in Sylvain's support chain alone she: has a wicked sense of humour, is blunt and firm, has a saviour complex, has a difficult past, struggles with the crest system, and has been abused in multiple different ways.

Why do we reduce her to team mom again?

Yeah she's also sweet and clumsy and gives without taking and a healer but she's also a lot of different things too.

My pookie collection~

Experimenting with brushes and shading. I still don't have a shading style I'm completely happy with, which explains the style changes 😔

A little Edelgard 😘

hello person who insists that chilchuck is totally different from every other example of the "looks like a child but is actually an adult" trope because he speaks maturely and has multiple children, before you sits sothis from fire emblem: three houses,

i think the whole chilchuck thing is also another symptom of people treating dunmeshi as The Only Good Unproblematic Manga do you feel me

[do-you-ship-it-polls]

Do you ship it?

reason: They live in each other's heads rent free (Dimitri in Felix's especially). There are a number of examples throughout the games, but their original paired ending says that when Dimitri eventually passed, and I quote, "it is said that Felix's grief was more potent even than the queen's."
