@fe-oc-week day 4 - tragedy !

Around two years after their exiling, Florence developed an illness that took the life of her mother and left her bedridden for many years. This formed a rift between Flo and her father that would never heal, due to her blaming him for their situation in the first place. Because of her fathers greed and ego, they were forced into hiding and unable to get her and her mother the treatment they needed.

As odd as it is for someone as unapologetic as Florence, she does carry a lot of guilt for her fathers actions. It's only during her supports with Edelgard that she accepts that her father's wrongdoings aren't also hers by default.

i imagine the specific illness to be something similar to dermatomyositis? which is a hereditary disease common in women + children that makes your immune system attack healthy tissue. but it's ye olde days so they dont know this LOL

Can u recommend some of ur fav horror movies? I’ve been trying to get into horror and I’ve only seen a few! I can’t handle extreme jumpscares like severely loud jumps in audio (small ones I can handle though! I just have sensitive ears) so I mostly stick to psychological horror but I’m trying to branch out! I don’t really have any limits outside of that! A lot of the ones I’ve seen u reblog look interesting :-)

definitely! i am not huge on audio jumpscares either because i think it is just wasted the majority of the time, and i prefer psychological myself!

my absolute favorite horror movie, potentially my favorite movie of all time even, is The Evil Within (2017). it is not an easy watch. its a masterpiece of a film to me. it is a raw, genuine work. the poster does no justice, and some are turned off by the utilization of the r word throughout the film. this sounds bad, but it is nothing within expectation. it is a film i would go into as blindly as possible, except knowing it has horror superstar michael berryman, and the film took 15 years to complete, and only was finished AFTER the director and writer nearly drove himself to madness, and died before 50, never writing or directing anything but his passion piece.

one of my more entry recommendations is The Orphanage / El Orfanato! i always recommend watching with english subtitles and original language, but i understand if not everyone can do this. i personally have not seen it dubbed, but ive watched it a solid 4 times and i do not tire of it. to summarize, parents of an adopted son return to the mothers childhood home, an orphanage, in hopes of turning it into a home and sanctuary for disabled children. when her son goes missing, she has to reflect on everything. no really loud noises, and is commonly praised for its lack of cheap scares. del toro like, modern gothic horror. if youve seen a good spanish gothic you will enjoy.

anything by jordan peele is divine! he does utilize a good jumpscare every now and then, but his work is mostly... i'd say eerie bordering on gothic. if youve been online for the past like 7 years you know his works also concern social issues, notably race in america. it is not the sole focus, especially outside of Get Out, but it will not be without. the noises can be loud but never really sharp. i'd say its at its sharpest in Us, but all three of his big horror films are very in line with sound. it never feels sudden, nor wrong, however. up to you though!
