I am thinking about them again... 🧚♂️ The designs and au courtesy of @girafferoyalty :))) I can't remember what I said before but Python is definitely an animal talent fairy (ba-dum-ts) who spends more time lazing and lounging than anything else. I didn't get a chance to draw it but I like the idea that Rinea can also see Forsyth, and is very sweet about it ;-;
#fe echoes#fe lukas#fe forsyth#fe python#fire emblem echoes#thinkin about berkut believing hes cursed because this stupid fairy that only he can see is ruining his life#while rinea thinks shes blessed that shes the only one who can see this magical dude who does everything he can to help her#then they meet and its the spider man meme

ok i know haha memes but you said Welsknight with his reprised boss music and now i cant stop thinking of what his boss music could be.... so many good choices i might just have to curate a playlist HDHDHDHDHDH
But in the meantime i suggest Pride and Arrogance from the Fire Emblem Echoes ost, mostly because I love the idea that at this point, you cant tell if it is his theme or Helsknight's (affectionate)
https://youtu.be/reqy8r0x-DU?si=diFhwWz1YpGXCgqn
Okay first of: Pride and Arrogance is AMAZING Welsknight boss music. I agree wholeheartedly.
Secondly, because you activated my trap card, I have [tiny] boss music playlists for Welsknight and Tanguish. There would be one for Helsknight, but I can't get it to turn out right. So for now, Helsknight, the most likely to start a boss fight, has none. Lament and languish.
Anyway.
The Welsknight Boss Music Playlist
The Tanguish Boss Music Playlist
The songs are kind of in order? They're meant to flow into each other well, and build in a certain direction. I don't make super selective playlists often though so, you tell me if it works.
#rns asks#rns playlist#welsknight boss music#tanguish boss music#rainingraco0ns#i want to put your song on the Wels playlist so badly but i couldnt find it on Spotify >:/#dang it spotify youve failed me#also rain i am shaking uou by the shoulders make a plaulist im begging you#you always pick such good music#give me your playlist i want to eat it

today in "krad continues to be very normal about gunter fire emblem" i hyper-analyze 3H's teatime preferences to divine up gunter's favorite teas and a few other fun facts ~ :D
so, context:
in Three Houses (FE16), there's a teatime minigame where your avatar drinks tea with selected characters, and try to guess their favorites / favorite conversational topics / etc for bonding points. FE's pretty big on character archetypes across the games (nabarls, jeigans, etc); while it's never a 1:1 as the series does like to subvert the stories and character arcs in some fun ways, you can generally trace a pretty direct line across them a la 'wow innes and shinon sure share more than a few surface-level similarities' and 'man OG!Jeigan, Gunter, and Marcus are cut out of the same cloth at least appearance wise huh'.
tl;dr -- it's easier than you'd think to pick a few 3H characters that echo gunter's archetype/arcs.
since i've played through 3H a few times, the three characters i figured gunter would share at least a higher-than-background-average similarity in archetypes + taste were:
Hubert - loyal advisor that does the dirty work behind the scenes in black to a charismatic royal. definitely holds a not-entirely platonic flame for said princess who had a Fucked Up past. has a tendency to be the disciplinarian for the others. (also both characters are hellaciously kinky bastards but that's just me)
Jeritza - strict instructor turned surprise(!) villain yandere paladin with a more complex backstory than you'd think. even has the black armor in his alter ego, and dislikes talking to others / prefers being alone. (seriously does that sound familiar or what.)
Hanneman - older (ie, definitely over his sixties versus all of the other babies in age) classic jeigan archetype and another instructor, kind but keeps to himself as well.
I could see people debating Hanneman vs Gilbert on technicalities but whatever, this is my post, I'm sticking to this list. :P
so, next step! looking at serenesforest.net's teatime preferences chart, we find out the favorite teas of the previous characters are (common teas in bold) ...
Hubert - Dagda Fruit Blend, Cinnamon Blend
Jeritza - Albinean Berry Blend, Southern Fruit Blend, Honeyed-Fruit Blend, Sweet-Apple Blend
Hanneman - Bergamot, Sweet-Apple Blend, Honeyed-Fruit Blend, Cinnamon Blend
... and surprisingly, there was a very high level of crossover! :o holy shit i was kind of not expecting that lmao. I checked a few of the other characters just to make sure it wasn't the same 5 teas over and over again, and no, these were pretty rare. that to me, reinforces that hunch that says looking into these patterns was worth it.
therefore, it is in my very humble opinion that (in 3H's style), Gunter's favorite teas would be generally the fruitier-sweet flavored ones, plus cinnamon.
subjectively?
fucking hell i love this so much. omg.
it makes so much sense in hindsight; i mentioned before how FE has a lot of fun playing with the archetypes/subversions, and there's something kind of hilariously adorable about the old strict "traditional" masculine dude fucking loving his fruity teas :D;;
gunter's already (ime) an interesting case of wildly subverting his archetype expectations so this is just yet another fun super-stealth easter egg nod.
to that note---you know what that reminds me of? this meme (below) of the bodyguard and the chick swapping drinks so he can have the fruity one and she can have the beer. :D
...
absolutely hilarious fun bonus fact in hindsight:
i almost had this as a scene in the gunter x fcorrin slowburn fic a while back, (yes, seriously, even before this post) but it ultimately got cut out for being ever so slightly gimmicky/meme-y in tone versus the rest of the fic which is played more seriously.
... this would make for an A+ drawing shitpost or a standalone fic tho. :D
no i'm not secretly smug af my instincts were on fireeeee why r u asking lolololol
/fin!

For the video gaymer ask meme: 1-8
platform of choice when gaming
not to be annoying but sony is the console manufacturer i prefer. in a perfect world sony would not be the best of the big three and would instead easily be the worst. but we live in a society that does not value men who. how does the full quote go idk it
2. top 5 games of all time
in ascending order: shin megami tensei: persona 3, sonic adventure 2: battle, fire emblem, phantasy star online: episode I and II plus, shin megami tensei: nocturne. the top 2 have been fairly set in stone for several years now, and the remaining 3 have fluctuated among the top 10 or so but this feels most correct. sad that the 6th place snub is FFXII 💔
3. favorite boss
NONE OF THEM!!!! #antiwork anyways i'm not sure what i would use as a criteria for this. i think i'm gonna go with the master from fallout because it really is just the most well done encounter in any RPG imo. if there's a "favorite final boss" question i'll kms because this would be my answer for that one.
4. favorite OST
here since i already answered this i'll just isolate some of my favorite tracks off the top of my head: "Dark Samus Boss Fight" - Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, "Miller Ball Breakers" - Jet Set Radio, "Kopfsprung" - Ever17, "You Blow My Mind" - Street Fighter III: Third Strike, "This is True Love Makin'" - Capcom vs. SNK 2, "Distant Travels" - Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, "Climbing to the Top" - Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, "Hoist the Sword with Pride in the Heart" - Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City, "Their Own Brand of Justice" - Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City (yes it gets two entries. fatlus, remember), "Demon of Darkness" - Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, "Septentrione" - Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2, "Changing Seasons" - Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3, "Lovely Gate 3" - Sonic Adventure 2, and, if you've actually read this entire list, we must end with the classic "NO MORE NO MORE HEROES" - No More Heroes.
5. most memorable game moment
any time i see this prompt on asks like this my mind immediately and distinctly goes to one of the plot twists of zero time dilemma, specifically one regarding D team. i won't say what it is, but all i will say is that it had me going "SHUT THE FUCK UP. . . NO FUCKING WAY" for like 5 mins straight. the ending of drv3 is also up there on the same level of memorable.
6. first game you ever played
probably the original super mario bros. on NES at a family member's house. it's much harder to delineate what was the first game i meaningfully played on my own. i'm tempted to say something like mario kart 64.
7. most recent game you've played
trying to catch a calm lilleep from the dreamworld in white 2. before that, i was mat duping in PSO all of yesterday. i had 5 characters to do mat plans for, including TP materials (i got them with action replay. idgaf if you call that cheating because not having access to an entire material offline is stupid. 🤪). i had to stop at like 11:30 last night due to getting tired, but i only have like 400ish mats left to do, which is pretty decent all things considered.
8. most anticipated upcoming game
is "none of them" an answer? jkjkjkjkjk i wouldn't say i'm actively anticipating anything but i guess by default metaphor re:fantazio because i pre-ordered it and know nothing about it. i'm more interested in seeing what the fuck it's gonna be than i would say anything else. metroid prime 4 seems like an easy candidate for hype so i'm staying cautious. i never really wanted the prime trilogy to get a sequel and would've rather they just do their own thing like they did with dread. oh well.

Ah, yes, such beautiful, important to preserve values such as (checks notes) pissing on the poor
I love how Fernand thinks he’s in the right here, like just because I can only kind of trace his thought process. Fernand’s hatred for commoners is apparently so great that war sounds better than fighting under a “nobody” like Alm. Fighting for Rigel gives them absolute power, and the devastation that they have faced under Duma’s rule will affect the commoners, so it’s like… a long game of “this’ll show ‘em”.
Like this isn’t so much a criticism of the game’s writing as it is Fernand as a person lol. Why are you like this, dude?
(Insert “why am I gasping I already knew that” meme here)
That would still make him his grandson, you punk ass bitch!! Adoption is still family!! Blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.
God Fernand, you would not survive FE: Fates
Because so many Fire Emblem characters are just like, ageless for the most part, I keep forgetting that much of the cast of Echoes is like 16-17. I think because Alm and Celica themselves have some air of maturity, it can kind of lose you, but once you see characters bickering amongst themselves or talking to the older figures, it really pops out. Honestly, I kinda like that. It speaks to the nature of having young people in war times. They’ve been forced to grow up faster because of it, but at heart they’re still kids.
Desaix wants Celica… interesting. I mean, I figure it’s a claim to the throne thing, considering Desaix is a usurper. However, Celica’s position in all of this seems unusual. She knows she’s Lima’s daughter, but she despises him — yet it still begs the question of why she was sent away, and why she hasn’t gone back for her birthright. She is supposedly the only royal child who survived the fire that night. Hmm…

female character ask game: 1, 5, 6, 7!
(pertinent to this ask meme)
while I did just answer a 6 and a 7, there's always more female characters to talk about, I suppose! ... ever so unfortunately when it comes to 6!
#1 - One of your favourite female characters?
look at she on my pfp! (for the uninitiated, that's Delthea from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia)
she's the cutest thing, and the funniest, and the most powerful, and but so many superlatives
#5 - A female villain you love?
there's usually not much good to be said about Mortal Kombat when it comes to female characters, or Mortal Kombat 11 in general, but one of the high points of that game was Kronika. as powerful and vicious and cool as any of 'em, while also sporting a strong, defined personality that also distinguishes her from the series's standard-faire conquerors and traitors -- no notes, really. ... well, besides that she's a symptom of the greater problem that it was dumb as hell to start doing Timeline Fuckery again just three titles into the new timeline
#6 - A female character who got done dirty by the narrative?
it's still wild to me how little it took for Lusamine from Pokémon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon to be transformed, from her original incarnation as a thorougly compelling villain, into the most incomprehensibly incoherent mess of a story that gets Ganon Hijacked by... necrozma?
like hell, they kept in the shocking reveal that she has a basement full of cryopreserved critters AND they made that location the part where the original dialogue abruptly branches away into being about "no mother stop sacrificing yourself to fight space beafts we all love you here". whose bright idea was that??
#7 - A female character the narrative wound up being much better to than you’d thought it would be?
low bar it is, but it still heartens me how Kaguya-Sama: Love is War in general manages to discuss sexuality a whole lot while seldom veering into schoolgirl fanservice territory. and this, considering it's seinen, too! everyone else's excuses run thinner yet by the day.
#ask meme answers#xivu-arath#Oshi no Ko is doing better still on that front but it's also less about sexuality

Faye's Fòdlan Journey: Season 1 - Opening Thoughts
Introduction
Masterpost Next->
As a reminder, we're starting with Azure Moon first, followed by Verdant Wind, Crimson Flower and lastly Silver Snow.
This was a route order I decided when I asked around for advice on which order to play them (mainly if there was an intended route order like in Fates) and they basically told me "play Azure Moon first, don't play Verdant Wind and Silver Snow next to each other since they're incredibly similar" and something else that made me decide to place Crimson Flower in the third slot. We'll see how well it turns out.
Before starting, I want to make a small note on my past experiences with Fòdlan.
I was there when Three Houses was first announced and I watched all the trailers as well as some Youtubers breaking them down.
But once it got released, I decided to go on hiding to avoid spoilers, which among other things meant unsubscribing to the very bad, not good r/fireemblem subreddit. One thing led to another, I eventually realized Reddit did me more harm than good because at that point I logged in there deliberately to get angry, so I decided to delete it.
Which means, in a way, I have to thank Three Houses to get me out of there, years before Reddit crashed and burned on top of that.
The following years were spent dodging most (but not all, sadly) spoilers, witnessing third-hand reports of flame wars with morbid curiosity (basically it's as if there was a huge wildfire outside and I was in my garden ignoring it while grilling) and being increasingly annoyed that almost every new content felt like it was about Fòdlan. At least before Engage was announced.
So I my feelings coming onto this game are a mix of awe, curiosity, fear and annoyance. I wonder if that makes sense.
Speaking of annoyances, I have to talk about a small pet peeve I have with the cover art.
While I definitely wouldn't call it bad, something about it felt off to me from the moment they revealed it.
It's clear what they were going for, with the house leaders dividing the art into three spaces, but the end results ends up looking a bit goofy, especially with the infamous upside-down Claude (which became a meme from the very beginning) and the Byleths just slapped onto the background of a building even if it doesn't make much sense.
But this is mainly a subjective thing. What isn't subjective, though, is the art error where Claude's bow is misaligned. If you look closely at the center, you'll notice the end of the bow isn't actually ligned up with the rest of it, and now you won't be able to unsee it, bothering you as much as it bothers me. You're welcome, by the way.
But we've delayed the main event for long enough. Let's start the game, shall we?
The first thing you see when starting the game is an empty throne on the left, followed by a quiet rendition on the organ of the Fire Emblem theme. Already it's starting to become clear the tone this game is going for.
Waiting around a bit, the opening of the game starts playing.
First of all- wow, that theme. Edge of Dawn is one of the best vocal tracks of Fire Emblem by far. I remember listening to it on loop when it first got released!
Also I gotta say, I missed the anime-style cutscenes.
While I like the 3D ones these give the game plenty of charm, even if I wish they were a bit more fluid. Honestly, they make a solid argument for a Fire Emblem anime to be released. no the cancelled OVA doesn't count shut up
If this is anything like Echoes, this opening is made of spliced-up future cutscenes. And given a good portion of it shows up again in the intro cutscene, I'd say I'm right.
Returning to the game, we start creating our file and- ooh, boy.
Ignoring the difficulty options for a second, which are the same as every modern Fire Emblem save for Echoes (only difference being that "Lunatic" is now named "Maddening"), it's time for my first big criticism of this game.
Which is ironic, given that it's about all of the text being too. Freaking. ˢᵐᵃˡˡ.
Maybe it's just an impression I have, but back when Three Houses first released, it felt like every AAA company was in a competition to put the tiniest text possible due to the larger screens, with the result that most of the time you have trouble reading it unless you get closer.
This is a huge blunder on accessibility for people with visibility problems, and while it luckily got better especially now that accessibility is a larger focus for most mainstream developers (except, of course, Nintendo), here it still shows its tiny, hugly head.
And remember, the Switch is also a portable console, so there are people who had to read this tiny font on a small screen, so I'd say this is pretty bad. I doubt I'll play Three Houses on portable because of this.
In fact, I feel this is such a problem I will be including alt text on all the screens with dialogue.
Going back to the difficulty options, I will be playing on Normal Classic.
Normal because I'm an impatient scrub, Classic because I like having some form of consequences. Besides, I have Divine Pulse covering my ass.
Hey, I said I was a long-time Fire Emblem player, I never said I was good at it.
With that said, the screen fades to black, and the first proper cutscene begins.
We open on a large, rainy battlefield, in what I assume is the distant past.
Two armies clash against each other, until a human(?) named Nemesis descends from the skies in a burst of flame. Immediately he turns his attention towards his foe, the goddess Seiros.
The two soon begin a duel to the death. Seiros uses a sword and shield which couple with her general design makes me think she might be slightly inspired from Greek culture? Big if true, because from what I know Fire Emblem never took inspiration from Greece.
Nemesis, meanwhile, fights with... the Sword of the Creator?
Huh. Will need to keep a closer eye on that one.
Eventually, Seiros prevails, and in a fit of rage, stabs Nemesis to death over and over, yelling that he took everything she loved.
After felling her *heh* Nemesis, Seiros grabs the Sword of the Creator, lovingly caressing it calling her Mother.
We see the Divine Pulse activate, and all of a sudden we're brought at Best Goddess Sothis' Mind Space, where she notices her new visitor.
So. This intro.
Besides already setting the tone Fòdlan is going for (grand with a lot of death and tragedy and murder), it's interesting how if you're at least a bit savvy with how Fire Emblem stories go, you can already put two and two together with that's happening.
Granted, future games and loose spoilers are kind of helping me, but still. Let me explain.
First of all, Seiros is a goddess. If it wasn't clear from the fact there's a Church named literally after her. And given what most goddesses are in Fire Emblem are and her particular shade of green hair (the same Naga and Tiki and also Mila share), it's clear she's Fòdlan's equivalent of Divine Dragons.
Nemesis, meanwhile, is using a sword made of bones, which are what all of Fòdlan's legendary weapons are made of. And given they are all effective against dragons as Heroes and Engage show...
Well, it doesn't take a genius to realize where those bones come from.
Remember, Falchion is made from a dragon's bone too.
And given what Seiros says, it's likely Nemesis or someone else affiliated with him murdered all of Seiros' loved ones to make legendary weapons of unfathomable power out of them.
The Sword of the Creator seems to be made out of the bones of her mother, on top. No wonder she's pissed.
I am curious about the Divine Pulse transition. Is it just cosmetic to signify a fast-forward, or is there some time fuckery already going on? I guess there's only a way to find out.
Sothis greets us in her own, sassy way, prompting the Avatar creation screen.
And lo and behold, we went from Awakening and Fates' somewhat limited but still extensive customization options to... Just getting to choose the Avatar's gender.
*sigh* Listen. I went on a tangent about this multiple times, so I'll just keep it brief and say that given how restrictive Fire Emblem's dialogue options are, if you're not going to make the Avatar at least visually properly customizable then there's no reason to have an Avatar and all.
Okay. With that tangent aside, let's talk about Byleth's designs.
Male Byleth is my favorite. The outfit looks good and practical for a mercenary, I'm a big fan of the loose sleeves of his jacket (?) and his face looks neutral but serious.
Meanwhile, Female Byleth... well.
I'm sure I'm far from the only one who mentioned this, but between the random holes in her armor just to show more bare skin, her strangely ornate thights and her somewhat younger face with larger eyes... Yeah, it's clear what the designers' priorities were for her.
Also her expression makes her look like a doll. A doll having flashbacks.
I like her hair more, though. So that's that at least.
As a reminder, male Byleth will be used for the first two routes while female Byleth for the last two. But regardless, I will be talking about Byleth in a gender neutral way, safe for cases where I mention a specific gender. Because again, besides romance options, the Avatar's gender really Does Not Matter.
Here we have the first dialogue option, something this game loves to use. I guess it's why Byleth's a silent protagonist, although I doubt it will be worth it.
As a general rule of thumb I like to immerse myself in who I'm playing as, so I will be picking the dialogue options I think Byleth would choose, which will be the highlighted ones in the screenshots.
I know Byleth is nicknamed the Ashen Demon but I don't know how they feel about that moniker yet, so I choose to have them call themselves a mortal.
Sothis then asks Byleth for their name, which for every route will be... Well, Byleth. Not that it's ever said out loud anyway.
Lastly, she asks them about their birthday.
It's interesting to note how here, instead of using our real life Calendar, every month has its Fòdlan counterpart. While this is really neat, I hope they will keep the number along with it because I know I will forget about them otherwise.
And I share their day of birth as well! What a peculiar coincidence!
With a last phrase that feels like it's leaning on the fourth wall, Sothis bids Byleth farewell for now.
donotmakeaSkyrimjokedonotmakeaSkyrimjokeDONOTMAKEASKYRIMJOKE
Byleth's father and soon-to-be corpse, Jeralt, wakes Byleth from their strange dream.
Apparently, Byleth dreamt about Sothis multiple times, but this is apparently the first time she actually noticed them.
Guess she was asleep for the other nights, that must have been pretty awkward for them. I hope she doesn't snore at least.
The father-and-child duo prepars for another mercenary mission, when they're approached by three inconspicious teenagers who definitely haven't set the Internet on fire for years to come, asking for help.
The problem is of course, bandits. The universal evil of all of Fire Emblem. With a whole group of them on their tail and about to attack a village, the five prepare their counterattack.
Which we will see next time, since this post is getting incredibly long and more importantly, I've hit the image cap!
