#hope you don't mind me coming here out of nowhere hhh

Hey *drags chair over to the table*

I offer the concept of Felix and Bridgette having some kind of informal language lessons sometimes! I like to think that Felix had proper language lessons before, and that he's the type to not speak it unless it sounds absolutely perfect. Bridgette often finds herself forgetting how to say a certain word in french and then she says it in chinese instead, and then one time Felix just happens to hear and tells her the word she's looking for.

Bridgette's eyes widen in excitement, not knowing that he knew chinese before this. After that, she'd ask him about similar stuff and he'd ask her about the proper pronunciation of certain words, and he can't help but think that they do have something they could bond over, after all (if this is pre-reveal)

Please talk to me about the Quantics

Or Felix/Bridgette

Or just anything, you know

FEH Book V, Chapter 11: Deceit

Part 1: Desolation

MID_SCENARIO_OPENING: Reghin: Ur...rrgh... FighterAX_M: ...cess Reginn! Princess Reginn! Reghin: Hmm? ...Wh-where are we?! What happened? Sharon: We're at the Emblian imperial villa. You were struck unconscious and have been asleep for days… I'm so happy to see you awake! I was so worried about you! Reghin: I-I'm sorry. I feel all right now! Wait—I've been asleep?! I have to go after my brothers! Sharon: No, wait, Princess Reginn! You still need to rest. You shouldn't be up and moving yet! Besides, my brother and the others are following up on what your brothers are doing! Alfons: Ah! We've just returned! ...I see Princess Reginn has returned to us as well. Sharon: Oh! Welcome back! Reghin: Can you tell me anything about the situation with Niðavellir, or my brothers? Alfons: The truth is...we have no answers yet. But when you feel up to it, I do hope you will join us as we venture back into Niðavellir. Reghin: Niðavellir...

MID_SCENARIO_MAP_BEGIN: Reghin: *gasp* Wh-what happened here? The capital is a smoking ruin! Sharon: There are bodies everywhere… H-how awful! FighterAX_M: Is that you...Princess Reginn? H-have you returned? Reghin: Yes, I'm here. Can you tell me what happened? FighterAX_M: It was...a monster. A ghastly thing I've never seen before in all my life attacked as if from nowhere… Please... Princess Reginn… You must...save Niðavellir. Reghin: H-hey! Stay with me! ...Stay with me! … I don't understand. Who could have done such a terr— BATTLE_STING FighterAX_M: GRAAAGHH! Sharon: What is that?! Fafnir2: RRRAAAAHHH! Alfons: The monster—it's back! Anna: It could destroy all of Niðavellir! Not even the capital was safe... Reghin: Wait... Brother? That… That's Fáfnir! Sharon: What?! How is that possible? Reghin: What happened to you, Fáfnir? Brother, please! Sharon: Wait—don't get too close, Princess Reginn! He's dangerous! Alfons: Oh no! Princess Reginn!

MID_SCENARIO_MAP_END: Fafnir2: Unngh... Reghin: Fáfnir! Get a hold of yourself! It's me, Reginn—your sister! Fafnir2: Re...ginn? Otr: GET AWAY FROM HIM! BATTLE_STING Reghin: Ó-Ótr?!

Part 2: Nowhere Left

MID_SCENARIO_OPENING: Otr: You've come to kill him, admit it! TRAITOR! Please, Brother, do as you please. You are king, after all. I will handle this rabble. Fafnir2: Urrgh... Uuwagh! Reghin: Fáfnir, no! Wait! Why, Ótr? Why aren't you trying to stop him?! Alfons: Explain this, Ótr! What has become of Fáfnir? What did this?! Otr: This is one of the gifts of the Crown of the Dvergar. It possesses any who wear it—any who it judges unworthy. The crown makes a ruin of their mind and body, protecting the kingdom from would-be usurpers. That fact is what allowed the royal family to rule for generation after generation. Reghin: Y-you knew this would happen?! Why didn't you stop it?! Otr: Stop it? ...Why would I? Without the Crown of the Dvergar, my beloved brother might have regained control of his mind. And then...then he might remember where he came from! He'd seek out the summoner for help, and— Sharon: How does this have anything to do with [Summoner]?! Alfons: ...No. It can't be! But if— Hmm… Aha. I see... Then Fáfnir is— Otr: He was summoned during one of Eitri's experiments. Reghin: Fáfnir is...from another world?! Like...a Hero? Otr: My brother is everything to me, you see. I cannot live without him! And yet...he still searches for the home he should have forgotten long ago… I hope to make something clear to him. No matter what he does, he has no other place to go. He is already home—with me. Anna: What are you talking about?! He has to get back to his world as soon as possible! Let us help! Otr: ...Have you not been listening? Fáfnir is not going anywhere! Look for yourself! He's finally forgotten about those things that matter so little. Like where he's from—and who you are, Reginn. Isn't that wonderful?! Finally, I am what matters, and I alone! Reghin: Ótr, no... Otr: Heh heh heh haahhh… Ah, but I mustn't let my guard down just yet… First, I need to make sure everyone but me—you all, that is—is dead. Of course you understand that I cannot rest easy while the summoner still lives. I have no need of a weapon that can destroy gates if I destroy the source of the gates themselves! Alfons: ...It seems the time for talk has passed. Princess Reginn, are you prepared for what comes next? Reghin: ...I'm ready! Alfons: Let's go, [Summoner]!

MID_SCENARIO_MAP_END: Otr: Urgh... Not done...yet. I can...still fight!

Part 5: Everything, Lost

MID_SCENARIO_OPENING: Otr: Damn it... This is it, then... Reghin: W-wait! Or Ótr will die!_ Alfons: Step away from him, Princess Reginn... Reghin: No! I won't let you kill him! Just...give me time to talk to him! Otr: Reginn... Reghin: Give Gramr to me, Ótr! There's still time. We can return Fáfnir to normal, and the three of us can live together again… Don't you...want that? Otr: Reginn… Heh... Haha— *cough* You really do not understand, do you... Hahahaha... Reghin: What are you talking about? Otr: It doesn't matter what you do now, I'm going to die here—so I might as well let you in on a little secret… I killed your parents. Reghin: Wh-what?! But they— They were your parents too! Otr: No. I simply let you and Fáfnir assume, as you were happy to do... You are no family of mine. Reghin: I... I don't...understand. Otr: My parents lived inside the walls of Niðavellir's castle. My father lived as a distant relative of the king. Only...the truth was, he was nothing more than a commoner with a face the nobles found pleasant. A face, they thought, that looked so much like thiers. The royals were eager to claim him as their own... The sheer arrogance… Laughable, isn't it? So, I was born and raised in the castle. One night, my parents opened the rear gate for some new visitors… They told me to show them how to find the king without being noticed. For me, it was literal child's play. I did as I was told without question. Alfons: Then...that means, Niðavellir's coup was— Otr: My parents were used by the people who wanted to kill the royal family… I'm sure they told my father they would make him king. It only took an instant for the hall to be awash with blood. I had no idea what was happening. I was confused, but I knew it was dangerous to stay where I stood… In the commotion, I took the king and queen's crying baby from the cradle and ran away. ...That baby was you. Sharon: So, Princess Reginn has always been a princess of Niðavellir, from the very start?! Reghin: That...that can't be true. I don't believe it. Otr: Why would I lie? You were able to enter the Tower of Niðavellir. What more proof do you need? The gates there never opened for either of us.

MID_SCENARIO_MAP_BEGIN: $WmMPID_アルフォンス,ch00_01_ Alfons: Take Gramr from him now, Princess Reginn. Reghin: What? Now? Alfons: Yes. Fáfnir's rampage has already destroyed much of the kingdom! Recovery from this disaster will take a long time as it is. With you, their princess, returned, the people will have something to rally around—to hope for. Then the work of rebuilding can truly begin. But first, Fáfnir has to be stopped. And you have to be the one to do it. If you defeat him, no one will argue your right to the throne. Reghin: You want...me? To defeat...Fáfnir? Otr: No! You can't! I won't allow it! You were never anything more than a sniveling crybaby! ...I hate you! You get everything I ever wanted, all without ever lifting a finger! And now... Now you want to take my brother from me too?! Reghin: Ótr… Otr: Just go! Leave us! You and all your little friends. Leave this kingdom now!

MID_SCENARIO_MAP_END: Otr: Just...go... Alfons: We will be taking Gramr from you now, Ótr. Otr: Damn it... Why...why don't you just...kill me already?! Reghin: Ótr, don't say such— Otr:  tried, you know... To get rid of you... All this time. I wanted to kill you. Because of you...I've only known...pain and suffering… I lost my mother and father...was chased out of the castle...forced to dig through garbage to survive… But then...then Fáfnir came… And he saved me… I knew that...if he was king...I could be happy...and I would never have to worry again… And yet you managed to ruin even that... Again, you take everything from me… Everything but...but... Hngh! B-Brother?! ...Brother, where are you? Reghin: Ótr, wait! Don't— _ Otr: STAY AWAY FROM ME! I won't let you take my brother from me! Reghin: ...Ótr. ...You were my brother too, Ótr. You were always so kind and did so much... I always admired that. I loved you for that... Otr: ...

MID_SCENARIO_ENDING: Fafnir2: Unnnghh... Aaa-AARRGH... Otr: Bro...ther... I am so glad you've come… I promise... to never leave you. Just... Hold me close… Like when...we were younger... Fafnir2: Ghhnngk... Auogh… AAA-AAUUOOOGH! BATTLE_STING Otr: ...Urk! Bro...thh-hhh… … ...
