Finally, I have found the Fire Emblem Incest Oasis. Please, tell me your thoughts on Saizo/Kaze and Chrom/Owain.

This post gets a cut!!! I try to remember to do that when I ramble on 😌

While I’m not particularly head empty about saizo/kaze it is lowkey what got me to play fates… my friend sent an image of the hubba tester…

I saw that, got head empty, read all 4 fics in the saizo/kaze tag, discovered someone had modded an s support for them, learnt more about the nohrsibs and the fact that camilleo is semicanon, read all those fics too, and then FINALLY received the new 3ds charger off amazon I was waiting for, so I could play this game. And promptly learnt to mod it. All in the span of like… a week.

Consider, though, a Saizo who does everything he does for Kaze? But can’t articulate that or express it to him? And a Kaze who distrusts him, who thinks that the reason Saizo keeps him in the dark and left in the first place is because he doesn’t care for him at all… who expects Saizo to leave him again.

Needless to say, while they’re not at the forefront of my mind they did kick off the whole fates thing!!!!! I do actually love them a LOT. I just got them married in my BR save. Asugi is green, and got 0 inherited skills he wouldn’t have already had anyway 😌.

Their dynamic is very Good, imo. Every time they interact they seem like they have so much to say, but lack the words to say it. It’s obvious that they love each other a lot but can’t express it, and that creates what appears as a sense of longing, especially on Kaze’s part. He’s clearly so concerned about his brother, and very hurt that his Saizo won’t share his troubles with him—yet struggles to find the words to just ask. There’s SO much tension there and I love it. They’d both benefit from just letting loose and fucking once or twice, I think. As stress relief. I wish I had more thoughts and headcanons about them, because I’d absolutely share them!!

I offer this, if you haven’t read it. It’s really beautifully written, bittersweet, with unrequited feelings from Kaze. The sort of thing where if a tag only has 4 fics…. you don’t expect to find something of this quality.

Side note, I think it’s fun that they’re twins. It’s rare that twins in games look so different from each other.

As for Chrom and Owain, mmmmmmm. I haven’t seen any content of them, but I have heard it mentioned once or twice and it’s a VERY good concept. I don’t really like Chrom being incesty actually, for whatever reason, but the idea of Owain having a massive crush on his hot, completely oblivious uncle?? Absolutely yes. Who wouldn’t have a massive crush on Chrom!?!

Especially if in his original timeline, Chrom was just. His cool, fun uncle, who died when Owain was relatively young. But he comes back in time and now Chrom is barely a few years older than him and extremely hot, oh no.

Chrom, happily married, thinking his nephew is a bit odd but fun. While Owain in his tent hopelessly jerks off to one of those posters Frederick made…

Hey can you tell us your headcanons for Kaze and Saizo?

Oh oops i totally forgot to answer this 😭

under a cut! i ramble

Hmmm, to me they are very much about separation and longing. Their father dies, and then Kaze watches his brother leave for a long time. When he comes back, he’s different, both in that he’s lost an eye and in his personality. I don’t imagine they were the closest of siblings when they were small, since they both have somewhat reserved personalities, but any closeness they did have is completely gone at this point. There’s an invisible chasm separating them. Kaze watches him, and there’s so much he wonders about, so much he wants to ask, so much pain that he can see but can’t share in. But he’s silent.

And obviously this goes two paths. In one, the rift between them is so big he cannot fathom how to reach across it. And one day he runs into the person who saved him before, that crazy person controlling the most bloodthirsty army in the world, who managed to take a fortress without killing a single soul. If his relationship with his brother were better, I think he would hesitate more at this point. But as things stand, he believes their quiet, awkward relationship to be unmendable. So he deserts from his homeland, never to fight alongside his brother again. Meeting him on the battlefield is devastating, and meeting him again in mokushu is likely even worse. Conquest!Kaze will likely always be saddled with guilt, and a longing for “what could have been.”

Alternatively, he does reach out. They do reconnect, Saizo does share with him what happened. He vows to shoulder the burden of their father’s death together. And suddenly, they’re…close? Not in the way the siblings of the royal family are close, but in their own way. They talk now sometimes, they spar, and the silences between them are no longer awkward or filled with unvoiced questions. I imagine Kaze doesn’t know what to do with this—he spent so long wishing things could go back to “normal,” like before their father died, but he never truly imagined what that would look like. The most confusing part is that the longing doesn’t leave. Before, he longed to reach out to him. But now that he has reached out, what exactly is he longing for? Why does it feel like there's something missing, like he wants something?

if you’re looking for something more like soft shippy headcanons rather than just… overview of their relationship, i’ll try hehe

I think they’re very soft. Their love language is one of touch, not so much words. Kaze can comfort Saizo much better with a hand on his cheek than with words of comfort. Also, once they’ve reconnected, they can say a lot to each other with just a glance.

Since their relationship is so natural, so quiet, I think they do a Very good job of hiding it. Saizo is probably pretty guilty about hiding it from Ryoma though, so they might tell him at some point.

Saizo gets Very jealous of all the girls who randomly shower Kaze with presents. Kaze tries to remind him that this has always happened, and it’s never worked on him, but Saizo won’t listen. In his jealousy he starts trying to buy Kaze better gifts, but he’s not actually all that good at it. Kaze however absolutely treasures the silly things Saizo gives him. He finds the jealousy kind of endearing.

When Saizo has clearly had a rough day, Kaze greets him by wordlessly removing his mask and giving him a kiss. I wrote a drabble like this

Saizo can actually be pretty handsy and possessive when they’re alone. Especially if he’s seen a lot of girls eyeing Kaze—girls Kaze probably didn’t even notice.

that is all i can think of for now!! enjoy the saizokaze

thinking about kaze’s hopeless longing for his brother. the massive gulf between them, ever since saizo returned without an eye. all the things he wants to say, the questions he wants to ask. he just wants to be close again, like when they were kids, but he doesn’t have the words. he doesn’t stay up at night thinking about him.
