What are Drifa's first opinions of the companions before she gets to know them?
Lae'zel: First companion she would meet, immediately understands she's very brave and 'knows what she's doing', respects. As time goes on, I think Drífa's indifference towards her comments/insults would wane, she would ignore it/not understand what she's saying, or would just think she's making a comment like 'you have an ugly large nose' and drifa is like 'you have no nose, see drífa have eyes', then would probably get tired of it, poking the bear, but remain stoic which i think would bother lae'zel more than getting a reaction lolol. Lae'zel hates Drífa... or does she.... :)
Shadowheart: Second companion, small elf girl, anytime shadowheart is like 'i don't wanna talk about it' drífa's like 'aight' and leaves, which is why shadowheart likes her now. Drífa is concerned, a small elf all alone. Feels shes quite small and fragile to be into the things shes talking about, but whatever. literally has no idea who shar is so is like 'cool goddess, i respect your faith' because drifa also follows a rather fierce goddess. Drifa prefers to listen over talking, so they get along well. shadowheart is desperately trying to smash rn
Gale: Pulled this weirdo out of a rock, a malnourished human, appears sickly. Drífa is confused by most of what he says, but he is rather poetic so she enjoys the 'nonsense' he talks about. Now she has 3 main landers to take care of. Gale talks way too much, but it is entertaining to her. She does not like that he believes he could compete with a goddess.... the gods are gods for a reason, to think you could understand their meaning, or be equal to one is conceited to her. She understands it's because of 'love', but she is weary. Gale is trying to smash now in my play through.
Astarion: weird little malnourished elf man. He also talks to much. Drífa has two talkative dramatic tiny boys and two ladies that hate each other so she's kinda remembering why she lived in isolation for 35 years. Astarion she probably views like a cat, like seeks attention when he wants it, eats what he wants, believes he's the best one here. She is not afraid of him being a vampire because she simply would never let an elf fell her, that would be a true dishonor. he's mildly offended. She doesn't tolerate his dislike of children, but typically doesn't really care what he does.
Wyll: Another little guy with sad eyes. Another human. Drifa likes him, he's polite, seems to know what he's doing, seems 'the most normal' plus has seen his share of battle (like lae'zel) so she's glad to have him along. Obviously when things go down she's like 'wow... yet another guy with baggage with a blue lady...' side eying gale. She likes his stories, listens intently to his deeds of good and protecting the sword coast, overall likes him but is still like 'here is another small human- oops small devil for my collection'
Karlach: Finally someone who looks like they're a warrior. Likes her, feels like she doesn't need to protect/take care of, which is good so she can focus her energies on the softies of the party. Drífa would like Karlach, she's a bit blunt and a bit more energetic than Drífa is used to, but probably likes that. Karlach's dancing, lust for life, and fire would be highly approved. I think Drífa wouldn't really get why she's sad about not being touched
Halsin: another gd ELF, but this ones big and can turn into a bear so thats ok. I think they'd have a lot in common but Drífa views him more as a tree hugger. She appreciates nature, so i think they could get along well.... though she finds him confusing... she doesn't feel like she needs to worry about him, and he's pretty forward and upfront so it works out well.
There are all first impressions. Drífa was raised to take care of herself and herself only, keep to her own, and that strength = power, because her lifestyle is very physically demanding. Being big and strong is important, being fat and strong is more important to survive frozen winters etc. She is a loner suddenly surrounded by people for the first time in her life, and is doing her best to keep them alive because obviously they need her help and this is a mission given to her by her goddess, why else would she have sent the ship to take her, to bring her to these people...

Yo does anybody have any theories abt what the fuck is going on between Hylia and The Fae in LoZ????????
Like. I just. Stuff below the cut
1) fairy queen character only shows up disguised or in downfall timelines and sometimes both. In most of them she is a different person every time but
2) in wind waker the fairy queen shows up as a puppet that looks a LOT like Fi. She has an entire island as territory to herself and makes direct, almost Fae-esque comments abt Link*, which she straight up Doesn't Do in any other game (coincidentally the game that Hylia and the Golden Goddesses are the Least In lore-wise)
3) Skyward Sword, the game that Hylia is the Most in, doesn't have any fairies in it, and introduces Fi, Master Sword soul and Hylia's Hand In The World Who Looks A Fucking Lot Like The Fairy Queen's Puppets
4) Botw/Totk has Permanent Great Fairies, who can move around as they please. At this point in the timeline Hylia is clearly Present But Detatched, enough to the point where they don't overlap beyond Zelda's direct influence
5) late downfall timeline Link (original games), can turn Into a fairy, which I'm not sure specifically how this applies but considering how far into a timeline that Hylia has at least half abandoned at this point this bit is, it feels kind of significant
6) also slightly less??? Relevant but still notable in a weird way, Timeline Split happens with The Fairy Boy(OOT Link). He does all the time travelling song based things but. I just wonder if there was some Greater Fae influence. (Causing the split, opening up potential domain space in a time where your rival Isnt. A bit convenient, hm?)
TL;DR: Why is it that whenever Hylia has less influence, the Fae have more???? What's the power struggle here??????????
Idk exactly where I'm going with this, but the evidence so far points towards the Main Goddesses and The Fae having some MAJOR unspoken beef with eachother
(personally my question is who/what, lore-wise, came first; Fi or the puppet)
*romantic/flirting comments in a Fae light have some wild gd connotations you cannot convince me otherwise. She is going to steal his soul and keep it like a pet.

Whenever I get into the Jace hireling au it's his relationship with Ragh that I find the most fascinating. Does Jace know Ragh saw him? Does he know that Ragh told the others that he saw him? He could totally explain it away if Ragh asks him about it and pretend he has no idea about Kalina's threats, but would Ragh want to risk his mom's life trusting that this guy isn't in on it?
Oh my god SORRY this took a hot sec i got super distracted but had a lot of thoughts but they are also kinda formless and i kept dragging my feet but. I think about this so much too. And i feel bad b/c i feel like im such an opinionated bitch who loves to come to conclusions abt shit but i honestly don't know what ragh would do in that situations (that being said, i do love to hold things in both hands. So many possibilities...)
I really do love Ragh (there's a lot of refreshing queerness in FH but there is something abt him i like especially) and i love when his interiority is taken very seriously and i feel like the throughline for that is he's just so loyal w/ this sense of fraternity w/ the owlbears, w/ his friends, and how earnestly he loves his mom. Ragh is obviously a little too trusting with people he likes and respects, people who are often authority figures who can give him direction, so the question is, if Jace gave him an explanation for what happened. Does he like and respect Jace? Maybe. He probably doesn't know Jace but i imagine there's some degree of jaceporter always a duo overlap that he is somewhat familiar with Jace. Compelled also by what Ragh's relationship to Porter might be. He was obviously very attached to daybreak bc he was. groomed, and Ragh does embody a lot of the traits of an ideal barbarian in Porter's eyes so I imagine he would probably be pretty good in that class.
But he's so protective over Lydia and idk how Jace could bounce back from that if she's at risk. I don't think he's particularly good at keeping secrets tho. So If there's a chance the bad kids hear that Ragh saw Jace talking to Kalina, if they tried to keep it a secret that they know, that they're suspicious of them, would they be able to manage that? like. I don't know if Jace knows Ragh told everyone right away, but i think he could find out soon enough. I honestly don't know how to reconcile what the party would DO with jace once they knew. Or could he talk he way out of it. He could even play the stupidity angle, i had no idea, i was a pawn in this. I know he hates when ppl view sorcerers as dumb but maybe this time it can bail him out. The bad kids are often suspicious kids (i mean riz is right there in the center of all this, and Fig is fig), but i do think they have this perception of Jace that kinda underestimates him.
(He could always say give the "earnest" or earnest answer. Someone wanted to steal his goddess lol. I have so many thoughts abt him n cassankarna... Anyway Maybe that could buy him some goodwill back. I fucked up but it was for my own reasons. But i digress)
Anyway. So many thoughts. None of them conclusive. I would like him to stick around tho. Like. As much as it might practically make sense for the bad kids to ditch him. I REALLY want him in that gd nightmare forest

… when does Yunzhong realize that the goddess of Xishan is the very same fairy/not fairy he had whipped for being ‘Moon Tribe’ ??? Bc I could really gd easily see him not putting that two and two together even after she’s run off to kiss the fucking manifestation of Taisui that’s ((even WORSE)) the Yuezun himself.
He’d be like, 500 years later and drinking tea with his younger brother, and flexing how much more elegant he is, digging at him for running off to play ~mortal~ and blaming him for not securing the marriage between Shuiyuntian and the Goddess, and how awful it is that she’s now firmly a ruler of their Rival Kingdom, when Changheng just slaps a scroll down and reams him out for actively driving his beloved into another man’s arms, because his prejudice had narrowed his worldview so badly that he forgot there was a 3rd conclusion to reach when playing a rousing round of ‘if not fairy, then [____]?’

OK, up to the coronation (aka route split), but I couldn't include the coronation notes without hitting char limit.
I don't actually have too much to say here, since it's just the Kronya stuff, which... doesn't really reveal much. I'll just note that Kronya's sword has her as "Disciple Kronya" which I guess is interesting.
Since there's nothing else, I guess there's the point regarding what people know about each other going into the big part one finale:
Solon referred to Byleth as "Fell Star" already when casting Zahras, so the Agarthans had cottoned on about Byleth's situation at least in part, likely due to the Sword of the Creator.
As mentioned before, Edelgard and Hubert know that Demonic Beasts can be created artificially, and I would even say that some artificial ones already exist.
It is mentioned by several characters that Byleth's minty green color is "familiar" or "like someone else" and Flayn even directly says they match now. This is a super easy connection to make.
Seteth seems to not know that Agarthans can shapeshift, which works with Thales not wanting Kronya's body to be taken so that the specifics of their shapeshifting aren't discovered. iirc Seteth does obliquely refer to the Agarthans as being the likely culprits.
The Flame Emperor and the Death Knight being antagonists is at least known to Dimitri even though he theoretically wasn't around for the missions when we see them. Monica being an imposter is common knowledge after the fact. You doing a ceremony to receive a revelation from the goddess is common knowledge.
Anyway, the most interesting part starts after this.
Live blogging notes:
The Blue Sea star is not visible in winter. I kind of headcanon it as a planet in the same solar system, not an actual star in a different star system, but it being visible Jul to Dec and then invisible the rest of the year matches more with actual stars.
Alois doesn't like it when you blush at him lol
Alois has a wife and daughter???
Linhardt: I hate blood and killing :( (is friends with Hubert somehow)
Manuela: you need 13 charm to win; Sylvain: has 21 (albeit after the +5)
Full names: Alois Rangeld, Manuela Casagranda, Shamir Nevrand
The contestants are Sylvain (from me, because I think he's cute), Dimitri (who forced him into this?? he's so desperate NOT to get picked and yet??), and Raphael (Claude apparently showing his sense of humor).
I do not understand why the "dance competition" is doing waltz movements... alone. Especially when the dancer outfit is like that...? That's not a waltz outfit. And why are they dancing alone?! Listen, I've only seen AMVs of dancing animes but, it was definitely way cooler.
Shamir votes for Dimitri lol
You know, when GD made the promise to meet in 5 years, it was kind of cute. Not terribly meaningful, since their relationships were quite casual on the whole, but cute. Having Edelgard suggest it, knowing what she's planning barely months from now, is...... it's pretty messed up. It doesn't help that the Eagles don't really have a sense of camaraderie either.
Same cinematic for the ball. It was kind of one thing when Claude takes you by the hand and pulls you onto the dance floor (?) in GD, though the focus on Edelgard and Dimitri was pretty pointless, but here, it's just weird.
It's vaguely annoying that you can't choose who you meet at the Goddess Tower. I got Marianne on GD, and I got Ashe here... presumably because I recruited him by getting his B rank.
The chapel is within the monastery's walls.
OK, poking at the Demonic Beasts in the chapel, they are "Experimental Demonic Beasts" with "A shard from a shattered Crest Stone" embedded in their foreheads. They are a "more resilient variation." Although this won't be unique to them, they're also labelled as both "monsters" (unnatural beings wielding magic) and "dragons" (born or descended from the goddess herself).
There are 4 beasts and 3 students in trouble.
Jeralt suggests that the students being turned into beasts has "something to do with Remire," but I have come to doubt that Remire was a test run or directly related to the same research. The timeline is just too tight, and the Sothis paralogue won't make sense.
Bye, Jeralt (again).
Thales tells Kronya she must survive because there's a role he needs her to fulfil, but then Solon will kill her in like a month. In a scene later, he says that his only aim was actually to keep the mystery of their bodies from being revealed, which would happen if Kronya died (her body could be taken by the Church, I guess).
Worth noting that Seteth is very confused about Tomas and clearly does not know that Agarthans can shapeshift.
The explanation for why Byleth accepts Jeralt's death is still so weak. "It's fate," says Sothis. OK, but like, why. Because Thales said so??
Guardian Moon (January) is named after Seiros, who first appeared during this month.
The scene with Edelgard after Jeralt's death is a bit... She starts with a very tough love "have you lost the will to act" approach and discusses how no one can understand your sadness. Others can only offer the tears of an outsider. So she won't cry for you or stand still with you, she can only promise to offer her hand when the time comes for HER to move forward. Which is such a weird direction to take? What does this promise have to do with Byleth grieving?
Thales describes the Flame Emperor as their greatest creation, powerful enough to "burn even the gods." So it seems like they experimented on Edelgard specifically to create a powerful soldier who could face Rhea.
Based on this, it does seem like Edelgard targeting the church is a combination of needing to keep the Agarthans cooperating with her by going along with their aims and getting rid of the Knights in case their interfere (since the Knights supported Loog's separation from the empire). Very impersonal, despite how she sometimes frames it.
Edelgard directly tells Thales that there will be no salvation for their kind and blames them for Duscur (and the shit they caused in Enbarr, presumably the Insurrection of the Seven?).
Sylvain says that most noble children are tested at birth to see if they have a crest. Of course, he also says you can't be the heir without one, but like... Ingrid's family wants to marry her out and she's specifically the only one with the crest, so...
The dancer animation is killing me. It's so stupid.
Hubert suggests that the real aim behind Jeralt's murder was to provoke the Knights into spreading themselves thin hunting his killer.
Manuela says the dagger that killed Jeralt wasn't made of iron or steel and the wound it caused wasn't ordinary.
A lot of the named Church people are out of the monastery this month. Which means you can't train with them, which is annoying...
Dorothea casually drops how she had to survive kidnappings, attempted murders, and who knows what while at the opera. Girl, what??
Linhardt mentions, as we're entering the Sealed Forest, that we have no official mission this month. I guess things were too chaotic to assign us anything.
Kronya is using a sword called Athame, which is described as being crafted with archaic methods. Kronya herself is referred to as "Disciple Kronya." She also has a passive called "Agarthan technology" which makes adjacent foes deal 3 less damage. Is this the weird tentacles she has behind her?
Regarding the Sealed Forest itself, there's some ruins, the platform Kronya waits on (where Solon casts Zahras, which uses the pillars on the edges), a glowing red stone embedded in a sigil on a ruin wall, and the remains of mechanical weapon (I think the kind Rhea keeps in the Tomb in her paralogue?).
It snows on the Locket, I guess because the Throat is a mountain range.
The Holy Mausoleum vs Holy Tomb thing is SO confusing that Rhea has a dialogue line that uses the wrong one lmao
Everyone at the monastery knows we're going to receive a revelation, but Manuela mentions that this is the first time she's heard of the Holy Tomb.
One of the Knights at the monastery mentions that he noticed more people in town than usual. Edelgard's hidden troops are on the move...
Dimitri mentions "this month's mission," so it seems Blue Lions have one, which should NOT be going down into the Tomb with Byleth... I would say this, but Felix's dialogue expects you to do something about Dimitri and like... he's not in my class, dude...

While I'm on the subject of characters and religiosity I think Lysithea is actually more religious than people (both in and outside of universe, herself included) think. She does have faith as one of her boons, in CF she likes the suggestion of turning the Church into a state institution, and in GW she's shown to take into account how locals think of the Federation disconnecting with + going to war against the central Church, with the general consensus the GD reach being "well we still have Eastern Church so it should be ok"
I do think most of it is cultural, as the Church of Seiros traditions are probably intertwined with Fódlani culture and customs to the point you can't separate it entirely. She's not super devout in the way Marianne or Mercedes are, but she still observes major holidays/prayers and believes in the goddess as a sort of Fódlani default. Her interest in faith magic and any scripture study that requires is mostly academic, but she probably appreciates whatever spiritual insight/relief she might get along the way, too. (The "I'm not religious or spiritual I really am just in it academically" person is probably Linhardt.) Also Lysithea definitely loves her home territory, so I think she'd be fond and even protective of how they celebrate religious holidays/festivals in Ordelia.
And on the subject of the Eastern Church, Fódlan is mentioned to have tensions between the church branches— and given the GD's "it's fine we have the Eastern Church" reaction above, I like to think that Eastern Church venerates, say, significant figures from the Crescent Moon War as significant martyrs/saints independently from other Churches. And that means Lysithea and other noble GD's ancestors may very well be included there, especially if Ordelia is a house that made it to the Roundtable from their contribution during the Crescent Moon War.
Any spiritual importance the Eastern Church has usually isn't obvious because of Leicester always internally feuding + Eastern Church not being as politically influential as other branches, and Leicesterians themselves usually think they're not too sensitive about religion because it isn't a central part of the Leicesterian identity like it is to the other two nations (Holy Kingdom and the Empire a saint founded). But if someone (especially from outside of the country) is too dismissive of like, local Eastern Church traditions and doctrines, they do get pissed; because the intersection of national pride/identity and the religious legitimacy behind it is still a touchy subject for a young country, no matter how you slice it.
What I'm saying is, there should be a moment where someone from Garreg Mach/Adrestia/Faerghus asks why the Eastern Church holds feasts in honor of the Roundtable founders, with the implication that it's heretical. And suddenly the Leicesterians everyone thought didn't really give a shit about religion (beyond political purposes, like Gloucester) suddenly turns into the Eastern Church's strongest soldiers and tells them to fuck off, possibly headed by Lysithea, for whom it's a doubly sensitive subject because of how her house was founded + how Ordelia's sovereignty was violated in recent memory.
Then someone goes "wow if you guys put half of that energy and half of the energy you spend fighting one another into helping the Eastern Church, maybe the Central Church wouldn't have to send troops all the way over every time they have a problem" and they're all quiet again lmao

Usher is performing at the halftime show and it sucks that more people are gonna post about Taylor Swift than him and his performance
(So I know the superbowl was yesterday but I've been really busy with my mom's recent diagnosis.)
I completely understand where you're coming from friend!!! I'm not much for football anymore (when I was a kid I loved the cowboys but honestly ever since will smiths concussion I can't support american football anymore).
BUT!!! Centering on the issue at hand tswift's fandom can be very toxic and like her pr bf is apparently very temperamental??? and there's this whole thing with everyone being all invested with their obvious pr stunt relationship. (look I know I know those in glass houses and all but I would like to think that when I share pix of tom/zendaya and hiddles/zawe you all know I'm just doing it because Zendaya and Zawe are literally goddesses and if they deign to pick mayo mortals perhaps there's love for all of us).
And like anyone in fandom has some level of unhealthy parasocial real life couple that is just so fascinating...
Thing is tho... Usher worked very hard for all his success and he seems to have been forgotten this superbowl for tswift and her pr bf.
Like I grew up with Usher and I will always be an usher fan (something something about how he gets passed over for being such a pretty boy and isn't giving the same amount of opportunity as other white idols from the same period *cough*britney*cough)
It just like... reminds me of that poll that made the rounds when spotify wrapped came out. you know the one? It was like how many artists do you have before your first Black Artist????
And to be honest I felt bad because I only had 3 Black artists in my top 10 (if I remember correctly I it was Beyonce, Stromae, Kid Cudi, just checked and it was but I was wrong on a technicality Halsey was in my top ten but she's white passing). Anyways we had some WILD ass takes about it everywhere on tumblr. I wanted to make a post about it but like we still don't have any Black mods so I didn't feel qualified. The takes were defensive and derisive and overall very anti black.
And that's the thing about swiftnation she's the current mayo obsession and like to my knowledge she's never dated a moc before. but her fanbase... is so gd toxic and white supremacist.
Anyways I hope Usher comes out with a concert tour and a movie and like all the things. He deserves it tbh.
Also sidenote for the elder millenials that remember she's all that do you remember Usher in that cameo as the dj??? THAT'S HOW GD OLD I AM LOL.

Hit this post on my dash again and reblogging AGAIN bc the MOMENT Blinter sees Dite in a fight they're like "oh. okay. okay that makes more sense now."
omg okay so I have to share this with you bc I've been LAUGHING about it for like, 15 minutes while labelling books at my desk but anyway. the contrast. between Jack bringing home Killian, the honest-to-goodness boogie man, and Jacqueline bringing home Dite, aka Hedone, the honest-to-goodness goddess of pleasure, has me in stitches for reasons I cannot. I cannot articulate. Like. there is no in between. NO IN BETWEEN. and I'm just laughing at Blinter being like?!?!?!? until Blaise goes well, I mean, I landed an honest-to-goodness season, and Winter being like, and I landed a prince who was briefly king, so maybe this sort of thing is hereditary?
IDK MAN. I just. blorbos on loop in my head, the very clear image of Jack being like TADA when he brings Kills home for the first time and Blinter being like (side eyeing one another), and like almost double that time later, Jacqueline does the SAME THING with Dite (TADA and all) and Blinter once again, side eyeing each other like 'this is a weird sort of deja vu, isn't it?'
ANYWAY these 46 books aren't going to label themselves! I hope your Tuesday is treating you well, lmels :)
It's called having the classic Frost CHARM the Frost family RIZZ. This family shoots for the stars always, nothing else will do! I can imagine there has never once been a normal partner brought into this home. The cold front STAY pulling.
I also cannot stop thinking about Blinter being so confused that Jacqueline has chosen a very nice, very beautiful pleasure goddess and then Jack is over here with his emotional support dumpster rat. And they're just like, "Theres a little bit of a discrepancy here..."
When the twins start dating they wont even be phased anymore because they've experienced both ends of the spectrum.

🧭🌞🔥
🧭 - What led you to your practice?
It's a long story, so here's a much abridged version. I used to be Catholic and made it all the way through Confirmation, during which I took the name Brigid, because her stories just resonated with me for some reason. But when I was a junior in high school, I was trying desperately to feel represented as an afab person in my religion while at the same time delving heavily into witchcraft, which led be briefly to a sort of Catholic-Wicca syncretism, then just Wicca for a few months, then when I realized Wicca didn't make any gd sense to me, I switched over to polytheism proper. Some advice I found initially when I started looking was to look into the gods of your ancestors, so I started looking into Irish gods and Celtic Recon and I've been here ever since. For a few years I was syncretic with Norse Polytheism, but it feels like that chapter in my life is closed. Right now I'm focused on the Gaelic gods, but I also worship/work with local land spirits, Hades, Brythonic spirits, and will occasionally throw a petition to a saint on behalf of one of my Catholic family members
🌞 - Which deity(ies) are you closest to/do you worship the most often?
I'm devoted to Brighid 🥰🥰🥰 You'll note that I took her name even before I was pagan, so I like to think I've been her creature since the beginning
The second deity (I'm using that term because 'spirit' doesn't feel right) I devote a ton of mental space to is the Mississippi River. I tend to think of river spirits in terms of goddesses, just cause that's how they're normally depicted in the Celtic mythologies, and I haven't gotten the vibe that she objects with those terms. However, because I'm no where near the Mississippi River or her tributaries atm, I can't really work with her? It doesn't feel right, because my experience of her is so localized to back home. But in the spring when I can be outside for extended periods without turning into a popsicle, I'm going to start trying to develop a relationship with the Penobscot River in earnest. I cross her every day on the way to school. She has a lovely energy
The other deities I regularly devote space to are the Morrigan and Hades. They both got my attention during periods in my life related to death. They're not particularly vocal or active, but the crows make it clear they're still around
🔥 - Do you have a favorite myth or tale from your pantheon or others?
There's a few and I can't chose just one
The Tale of Oisín (Gaelic)
The Curse of Macha (Gaelic)
The Meeting and Marriage of Rhiannon and Pwyll (Welsh)
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (Arthurian)
Raven Steals Fire (Tlingit)
The Tale of Wind Horse (Choctaw)

I just think it's wild how Three Hopes really did its best work on the Blue Lions and improved some major aspects of them tenfold (such as not making them single trait tropes like tsundere whine whine Felix and can't-say-anything-but-stupid-flirty-shit Sylvain). They fixed every relationship (such as Annette and Gilbert, the Gautier family, Felix and Rodrigue, Dedue and Ingrid, etc) and all of the characters feel like real people and not just lazy tropes with little to no development.
Meanwhile the Deer and and Eagles are mostly worse versions of themselves (Ferdinand is just a regular ol' Edelgard simp and every aspect of his Houses character was completely wiped regarding his views and her; Dorothea is ten times worse and is nothing but an Edelgard simp who would literally canonically rather die than not be by her waifu's side; Caspar will fight and for Thales bc uwu Fr The Empire except that the Empire he loved and fought for is dead and has been for half a year by that point; Claude forget it we all know that story; Raphael is utterly brainless and doesn't have a kind bone in his body when it comes to invading other lands and just wants to punch innocent people who did nothing to him bc it makes him feel stronkers, etc).
Some non-BL characters got improvements (Leonie isn't 100% Jeralt centric, Hilda has more to her character than being lazy and whiny, Hubert is shown not to be a 110% callous jerk outside of anyone except Edelgard and has an easier time forming relationships with other Eagles), but overall most of them were made much worse.
Even non direct BL, GD and BE characters are included in this. Nader is way worse and is a happy violent pillager, Judith is just kinda mean for ??? some reason, Sothis is a crazed bitch for ??? some reason (apparently waking up a year earlier makes you bitchier if you're a goddess??? man I thought it was 220 years earlier haha Tellius joke inserted), and meanwhile Miklan gets a redemption arc enough to the point where his father of all people wants to avenge him.
Highkey feels like they poured all their effort into the Lions and let everything else go up in flames like a dumpster fire while for some reason (but also We Know Why) marketing the game with as much Edelwaifu as they could and making sure she's happy pappy and nobody can dare harm her because that would be an outrage. She can, of course, as ever, harm as much as she wants and it's Okay and Just and The Right Thing To Do.
Hopes really is a wild ride.

I'd love to see how Drifa handled the Emerald Grove between the druids and the tieflings. It's not the romance, but I think her straightforward nature would be interesting in that situation!
Ooo yes! It would be kinda complicated.
Drífa is very pragmatic and is a ‘survival of the fittest’ type, the strong overcome the elements, wilderness vs man, etc. she probably would initially understand the druids, the tieflings showed up and are taking their resources and the Druids are ‘protecting their own’, people have intruded on their territory… these people are intruding on holy ground, holy ground to a god of nature (she worships a goddess of nature) she doesn’t dislike the tieflings at all, she probably doesn’t even really wanna be involved, Drífa falls ass backward into doing the right thing because she’s a good person
But when Drífa finds out the head Druid is going to kill a child for stealing, in her eyes, a rock, she immediately changes her mind. She would listened to the situation from both sides before casting judgement, but to her Kagha is going to kill a kid for stealing a statue that… she has back?
Drífa is a very stalwart person, but kids are the only thing that can stray her from her teachings and she would immediately be disgusted by the Druids. To kill for the sake of killing or for a show is against her beliefs and that’s what kagha is doing. To say you are guardians of nature and willing to snuff out life for a ‘false idol’ Drífa isn’t materialistic so the statue is nothing. She would be very straight to the point her disgust, and probably be a bit hostile to everyone in the vicinity because the idea that ‘someone is the high Druid by ‘right’ so we can’t stop them’ is ridiculous. Obviously the strongest and best for the community should be leading, and these are weak and cowardly so she will find the Halsin to restore balance.
Probably give Arabella a gruff and stern talking to, and pat on the head… but deep down is thinking of her child that she couldn’t save. She would then be very motivated to find Halsin and help the tieflings since the ones sworn to protect the natural order are being complete morons
I do think it��d be funny if to her Halsin is a tree hugger comparatively and she’s like ‘oh lord… another elf… this one’s a gd hippie….’ Jkjk I do think she’d be disappointed when the bear turns into a man. Obviously Halsin watches her eat honeycomb with her bare hands and needs her carnally
She would then help the tieflings escape because they deserve a chance to start their own community elsewhere
She’d help the tieflings and then put her hands on and nod and just leave and they have to chase her down to go to the party because ‘why you have talk to Drífa? Is ok- I go now- why thank?’

Tom Oliver
Zane
Scorpina
favorite thing about them: This is largely speculation, but apparently that he has less inclination for immediate violence than his genetic source. Also the fact that his entire being is the result of Zedd and Rita being the pettiest little bitches to ever walk the galaxies. least favorite thing about them: The fact that he was available for such a SHORT amount of time and never mentioned again. favorite line: ...If we’re being truly honest, the only quotations of note I can think of come from YOU. Everything else is just...90s filler. brOTP: Well, in obvious acknowledgement of canon, him and Tommy make a lovely combination, but nothing else springs to mind. OTP: Not applicable; his is not in the right place for that, thank you. nOTP: Self-cest goes without saying. And due to your fandom contributions, him and Drakkon, Kim, and Jason.  random headcanon: While he was stuck in the Wild West, he ran aground of multiple generations of incarnations of other Rangers and their allies. Kanoi Watanabe’s second reincarnation was a doctor that came in on the railroad and took the stranger in--though his medicine practices were often hindered due to the bigotry of people that came in on the Gold Rush, Tom was quick to put that to rest. unpopular opinion: …Are there actually popular opinions about this child? song i associate with them: The Circle of Life
Tumblr media
favorite thing about them: That he is quite possibly the softest, most charismatic Ranger that has ever been onscreen and in panel and he has never seen fit to give up on the most stubborn Red Ranger to ever exist. It is true that he gave Andros time to himself, to cool down, to do what he thought was best even though he hurt him, but Zhane is in danger of having Mary Poppins’ motto tacked to his skin. least favorite thing about them: Him dating Astronema was fucking weird. A light in the dark as their ever was one, but I think it was just the writers trying to get around the queer bashing that ran rampant at the time. favorite line: “What have you lost that I haven’t?” brOTP: Hrm. I have this strange feeling that Cassie and Ashely are his secret shadows to get his wings aloft so his can fly over to Andros and admit his gd feelings already. OTP: Somebody dig a hole and put him and Andros into it with enough food to keep them comfortable. Then toss in a how-to guide on sex and relationships and put a tarp over the hole.  nOTP: Even the IDEA of him kissing Karone post-Astronema gives me a bout of nausea. random headcanon: He misses his parents terribly, he misses them every day. But growing up with two mommies really was the best thing that could have happened to him; it cut any exposure to toxic masculine inklings off at the root and added to his need to show love and affection. unpopular opinion: For some reason, his being a Silver Ranger with no contact to any other metallic Colors feels a little bit like a cheat to me. And his possession by the Gold Omega fucker was felt more disgusting than it should have because of it. song i associate with them: They Stood Up For Love
Tumblr media
favorite thing about them: She is a shapeshifter and she is a sarcastic little goddess that lives largely by her own terms--but she cares about people, too. least favorite thing about them: Trying to prove that she’s just as blood thirsty as the monsters she is constantly surrounded by in order to give off the impression that she is the most dangerous being in the room. favorite line: “I don’t have a stinger. That’s offensive.” brOTP: I’m actually quite fond of her and Black Sentry!Adam and their soft getting to know each other in Drakkin New Dawn (though I hated what happened to him). Also her and Coinless!Trini burying the hatchet and becoming frenemies that kiss and bang is a nice thought. OTP: Scorpina/Goldar. They fucking kissed in OG, and if that wasn’t enough that Annual comic made me FALL in love with them being in love~ nOTP: I could vaguely see her being suitable for a relationship with Sentry Adam, but I don’t like the idea of her with OG Adam. Also I don’t like her paired with Slayer Kim; it’s too...catty. random headcanon: When Sentry Adam died in the Coinless universe, she ended up trying to do better by both the other sentries and the Coinless--by making herself available to Bulk, because he’s basically the only member of the Coinless that wanders the palace and isn’t instantly an asshole to her; and to Skull, because...well she heard about the broken neck and got curious about whether or not there was anything to hear about death. unpopular opinion: She is more than a Sexy Lamp, but holy fuck the writers are terrible about using her to her full potential. song i associate with them: Strangers Like Me

May 2024 Mission Board Plots
Alright I'm done looking through Citrinne prep stuff at the moment, gonna pass some prompt requests here! I know it's a bit before the ball, so I get if not many threads can get started. I also am going to very likely take it easy over the next few days until my finals week finishes on Wednesday. Either way, you know the drill: DM or ping on Discord (or Tumblr IM) for anything you're interested in! DMs preferred and welcomed.
GD-required
Axe +1 - Jewels are a girl's best friend! I can take this in multiple ways, from Citrinne trying to sneak her way in for a firsthand look at Riegan's new minerals, or for a more serious approach, Citrinne entering the mines with the aim to help any miners in danger. Goddess' Tears - Slightly similar to the above prompt with an interest for gems, though probably on a more casual level. Confederate Cross-Examination - Yeah Citrinne sort of left Brodia to avoid having to sit her ass in court. Maybe these nobles need a more veteran set of ears...?
Open to anyone
Artifex Box - She would love the pictures! Make sure she doesn't stay in there too long with several outfits, or it might be a long appointment... Sword +1 - Slightly biased for point, and I'm up to take the idea of the rat parade in any direction! Club Rush - Have to consider what she's joining but...any club need a generous benefactor? Roommates? - Can you handle a noblewoman who goes out for midnight training and comes back with way too many shopping bags in the afternoon? Riding +1 - Take her on a nice ride before the ball!
Additionally, you might have noticed Citrinne's gold count on her pinned post/stats page. What does it mean? Whatever Citrinne wants it to mean, of course!
Of course, I'm down for any other ideas you may have that don't relate to the mission board. Feel free to DM and let me know!
