[ Chocolate fountain ]

One more dipping shouldn't harm her. For real this time. Serious!

Yuzu finds herself standing in front of the sacred springs one more time (yes, one more) for a final helping of chocolate-covered confectionaries. This time around, she convinces herself to take a simple biscuit, so that the chocolate simply enhances its flavor rather than overwhelm it.

...but those cakes look so appetizing as well.

She prepares to accept her primal impulses before blindly running into a slightly smaller girl. These sugar demons...this night has taught Yuzu of their true demons.

"I- apologize for the careless manuever, miss," the samurai quickly apologizes after she ducks to the left. Thankfully, this ball has provided Yuzu fair backup for whenver she steps out of line.

She takes off a teardrop crystal from her brooch and presents it for exchange to the other. "Are you a student here as well? I am Yuzu...a Blue Lion. Please take my gem as my plea for forgiveness."

A chocolate fountain? This party has seriously pulled out all the stops.

But as tasty as it looked, Etie couldn't let herself be too tempted. She appreciated chocolate and cakes as much as the next person, but if she let herself indulge too much? It might affect her muscle mass. Wouldn't want that!

...A few treats wouldn't hurt, though.

Before she can try one, however, another girl runs right into her. It's only thanks to Etie's impeccable muscles and sense of balance that she doesn't stumble, even with the speed and height advantage this woman had over her.

Who in the world?

The other woman is quick to apologize before Etie could get properly annoyed, and the Firenese archer pauses a moment, then sighs, realizing that it had been a mistake.

"It's alright. No hard feelings." The woman introduces herself, and Etie is particularly interested in the mention of her house. "Blue Lions? I'm there, too! I wasn't going to hold a grudge, but now I have even less of a reason to, now that we're classmates!"

Etie removes her own crystal from her brooch, and hands it to Yuzu. "I'm Etie. Here's to a good relationship as peers. In fact, I'd love to chat a bit more, over some tea and cakes." She smiles, "You can brief me on what I should be expecting from the classes."

[ Champagne ] - Imported from the western shores of the Adrestrian Empire, the school purchases 70 bottles of this stuff well in advanced for this day alone. The bartenders are under strict orders not to offer any student more than one glass.

This drink is...new, for the budding samurai. The staff explicitly told her that she only gets one shot at consumption, so she would be wise not to waste it. Of course, Emma is still much too young to gamble with such dangerous beverages, so she would have to find the proper partner...

...is that one of her house's teaching assistants? Spouting out about love to no one?

"Yes...to love. A treasured virtue to fight for," Yuzu slips next to Laslow, holding her own champagne glass forward for a toast. "I never took you for the romantic type, professor."

Startled, he looks at his side, surprised to find someone responding to his ridiculous announcement, let alone with a drink in hand. She looks passingly familiar; a student of his house, maybe.

Now there's a surprise. An eyebrow raises. She must be new here if she wasn't aware of his rather vocal views on the subject. "Moi? Then I've done a poor job of cultivating my reputation around here!"

He tips his glass against hers with a laugh. "What's the point of living without love, yeah? That's always been my philosophy." Champagne bubbles pop and fizz on his tongue before he swallows a polite sip of the beverage.

"I'm glad someone agrees with me! Here, a token of my appreciation." One handed, he fiddles with his brooch, pricking the pad of his pointer finger in the process. Laslow hisses at the sting. "Heh, guess I need to be more careful."

She's far behind... but she won't go down. No. She is Mareeta. She is perfection.

And it seems, for at least a brief moment, the waters finally notice who's in them, and abides, letting Mareeta bolt forward, the cool liquid falling away as she moves. It's as simple as running. As easy as fighting. As achievable as victory.

Swim roll: 19 [37 out of 80]

Almost at the end, just a little more.

Just a little more.

JUST A LITTLE MORE!

"Hah."

Mareeta floats for a brief moment, paddling as she looks behind, seeing she'd taken the lead. Even without touching the wall, she still finds time to gloat a little.

"See ya'."

And she gets back to swimming, although she needs to catch her speed back up, now.

So she goes a bit slower, almost reaching for the wall.

Swim roll: 2 [39 out of 80]

She was dealt a bad hand.

But she's been dealt those before.

And those have been far worse than "bad at swimming."

She can do this.

For she is Mareeta.

And she will win.

swimming with the fishes…and you, I guess

Hiiii pls 🖊🖊🖊 for Yuzu 💖

@mystery-salad

YUZU!!

send me 🖊 for an oc fun fact or headcanon!

anyways. the big canon divergence in her timeline is that she becomes champion of kralkatorrik after the departing, making a mess of everything, but things actually started deviating a lot earlier. it takes them longer to get to the bitter harvest for various plot reasons (they get, uh, sidetracked), and in that time mordremoth fully (and forcefully) bonds trahearne to himself as his champion. he basically comes to the conclusion that it would be catastrophic for pact morale and the future of the sylvari for the world to see him wholly subsumed by mordremoth, and that mordremoth probably wants him to fight against the commander when her and her team make their way into his clutches, so he claws his way out of his nest and runs into the woods, hoping to never be seen again.

yuzu and friends find bitter harvest empty, with no sign of trahearne. canach volunteers himself in his place, wanting to prove himself reformed. he climbs into the mess of floral viscera that trahearne left behind, opens up his mind to the dragon after weeks of pounding, and allows them into the dream. their version of the fight really is a migraine and a half. this puts canach out of commission for a good year or so as he recovers from the psychological ordeal, meaning that he’s not assisting the shining blade— and neither is yuzu, because she’s in the heart of maguuma trying to find trahearne. (when she does find him, it doesn’t go well). the krytan civil war gets stretched out and has more casualties, and yuzu is absent from almost all of it because the rest of her fixation in season three is entirely on primordus and jormag.

this also means that path of fire is ultimately just yuzu and rytlock, because canach is trying to get his footing again, and kasmeer stays behind in divinity’s reach to run support for the queen (her crisis of faith is wrecking her but she’s instead throwing herself into the war). as you can imagine, only having rytlock in your party as your single voice of reason in the fight against balthazar does not lend itself to the most sensible decision making, and they don’t have a mesmer in the group to facilitate the canon plans with impersonating archon iberu, and so really can you blame her for going to the big guy for help—

[raijintosworn]

Dear Yuzu,

That is what I like to hear. Very well, should you ever wish to become my pupil, come and find me. I would assume saying this much is not against the rules. Consider it a challenge to seek me out, rather than an invitation.

As for my name, my parents were staunch royalists. So delighted were they that their son was born at the same time as the crown prince, they named me after His Highness. It is strange to share a name with royalty, I’ve come to realise. However, it isn’t a wholly unusual name in Hoshido, no? As I’m certain I have met some Sakuras, some Hinokas, some Takumis, and even some Kamuis.

The path of the samurai must be your own. I am relieved to hear that, in your case, that rings true. Within you, I believe you must hold the spirit of a samurai. What a joy it is to speak to a kindred spirit.

As for me, I live and die by the samurai’s code. If I am confident in nothing else, I know that I am confident in my abilities in the sword, and that my ideals do not waver. I am confident in the samurai’s path in ways I cannot speak of. I know that this is my path.

Yours respectfully,

Ryoma

are you there yuzu? it's me, ryoma

[ 𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐭 : sender has gotten injured protecting the receiver.; (Fates AU??)]

𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐢 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 prompt | no longer accepting

The open field wasn’t exactly the perfect place for Sakura to be, but as she was asked to accomplish some errands in her homeland, Hoshido, she couldn’t refuse the plead and immediately took a break from the Monastery to take care of her home country’s business: she simply had to recover some lost ambassadors from Mokushu, a bordering country that always was a bit ambiguous throughout the whole war period, but eventually fell as it declared war against Hoshido. After the events of the war between Nohr and Hoshido, Sakura asked for a reconstruction of the land, assuring she would lead the negotiation with the new ruler.

The ambassadors from Mokushu were heading towards their land to discuss a new trade route, but they were captivated by some bandits along the road –or at least, that was what the delegate reported to Sakura as soon as she reached the castle. “We can't let them die on the road” she stated, worried and sharing a gaze of concern with the others court nobles and officials. “I’ll take care of their rescue, I’m the one who wanted to do the negotiation with Mokushu..” she added, looking a bit desolate since she surely wouldn’t want to go alone, till, a familiar face showed up with a gentle tone as she offered to escort the petite princess in the mission.

“Miss Yuzu..?” she recognised her, even though the two of them didn’t spent much time together, nor there, nor at the monastery. But one thing was for sure: she was a very diligent samurai, Sakura has heard of her deeds, especially the one of her family. In all response, the Hoshidian Princess made a small bow and shared a radiant smile as soon met her gaze –she definitely was in good hands, she was sure of it.

As the couple departed, the sun went down very quickly, making a brief appearance in the sky behind the mountain, as the two of them reached the destination where the ambassadors were lastly seen –the Mokushu's Forest. As soon as she realized of the place, a shiver ran down her spine, as she clearly remembered the terrible fate that soon followed the events happened in that forest; she did her best to cover the angriness mixed with sadness, doing her best to reply Yuzu’s concern, “It’s nothing, really..” she dismissed the conversation pretty quickly, concentrating on the surrounding to find where the prisoners were hidden: exploring the forest led the couple to a small clearing, where an old shack was, apparently abandoned, with the main door open.

Yuzu warnings didn’t reach Sakura’s mind as she immediately approached the entrance, discovering the three ambassadors all tied and gagged, “Found them!!” the enthusiasm was too loud maybe and a suspicious sound came from her right, from the bushes nearby, but the reaction of her partner was swifter and as Yuzu threw herself to cover Sakura, an arrow was shot from the bush, piercing the arm of the poor girl who came to protect the pink-haired girl.

“Miss Yuzu!!!” she yelled, taking out the healing staff and already reciting the soothing words, while a hand was placed on her wound, but the effect of the healing was so immediate that Yuzu could immediately stand on her feet to counter-attack. “Let me help too!” the petite priestess cried as she put the staff aside and bring put from her small pocket bag a tome. “The won’t have a chance against us!” she hissed, exchanging a quick glance with the samurai girl and then casting the Blizzard spell on the bushes: three bandits rolled out in pain, one managed to escape. Yuzu didn’t wait for a further second and with a dash, she reached the stomach of the fugitive, making the most of her blade; the man was on the ground.

“We made it!” she exulted, almost forgetting to free the three man inside the hut, but first of all, she wanted to make sure she showed enough gratitude to the saviour of her life; she put the tome away, drew closer to the  purplish-haired girl and gently picked one of her hands in hers, squeezing it softly, “I’m glad you chose to accompany me. You’re a lifesaver –MY lifesaver” she lastly giggled, turning to liberate the ambassadors and finally getting back home, with the mission accomplished.

Later, he will find the person responsible for this breach in security and soundly lecture them on their spectacularly unmitigated failure. There is a reason they have routines. Protocols. Leo even made sure to reiterate the highly substantiated threat of a new bandit gang wandering this particular stretch of road between the Academy and the nearby Leicester Alliance border before their journey began.

That poor soul is incredibly lucky Byrnhildr was not among the stolen weapons; despite Fódlan's use of tomeless magic, Leo prefers keeping his sacred book on hand when using the spell. Messing with the laws of gravity and life itself without a tether toes the line of recklessness. He did not think it necessary to waste such potent magic on some low-level bandits.

He won't deny it would now be immensely satisfying to hold such power at his fingertips.

As the confusion dies down into a more organized chaos, Leo finds himself beside an unfamiliar girl. He considers her a moment. She looks properly irritated by the situation; satisfied she's not his culprit, some of his anger fades.

"Are you experienced in hand to hand combat?" He asks without preamble. Introductions can come after they've settled this matter.

It's not silly, it's always so painful to see your favorite die :( And Dimitri death is particularly tragic in CF, it hurts so much ( especially with all the Blue Lions in the battle reactions, the two different that can happen with Dedue are CRUSHING ).

And I'd love to hear your thoughts on fe3h too! Can I send you some asks on the game? ( Like what's you favorite support and all! )

thank you for understanding about dimitri, it's just... that map is so sad i can't 😭

(at least the second time i played CF i managed to save seteth and flayn aka daddy and babygirl, so i didnt cry too much c': )

btw of course you can ask me anything!! really i love to talk about three houses, go ahead <3<3

for anyone who cares about emulation, unfortunately today we lost both yuzu (switch) and citra (3ds) emulators due to the lawsuit nintendo filed against the management that handled both emulators. this is a major loss for emulation as a whole. if you support emulation i recc downloading emulators that you may want to have in the future in the case that they get taken down in similar lawsuits

[joshuafireemblem]

What really defines a legendary creature? Is it some mythical power or authority it holds? Is it something that’s rare? An amalgamation of several creatures? When does a mutation become a thing of legends? And most importantly, why was an off colored stag a legendary beast?

These questions repeat through Joshua’s head as he tracks slowly through the woods. The grass whistles, wind rolling off each blade. Those delicate noises flow through, enveloping the bark of rowan and alder trees, great in size. Shadows dance, shaped by the leaves, guided by the gentle hymn of the breeze. A distant chirp accentuates the medley, followed by bullets as a woodpecker finds its next meal.

Dirt cakes his boots and legs, pants ripped from catching on stray thorns and thickets. Mud mixes with oil, seeping into each pore, only made worse with each step. Hands wrapped in dirty bandages, small specks of red decorate what would otherwise be a cacophony of browns and white. 

Still, his carmine iris has a target. Hunting in the woods was far different then the desert. The same snakes still dug into their holes, yet a fire would burn the same when lit. 

A sudden stillness holds the pursuit. Off hand flicking upwards on his waist, a knife is hooked around his middle finger. Swiveling, cold steel glints in a stray ray of light. Tossed up, his thumb slides across the blade, the rest of his fingers ready to throw. Another moment to aim before his dagger is let loose, pinning what would be an otherwise normal deer in the neck.

It cries out, before collapsing. It breathes slow, red creeping out to stain the dirt. Quick to walk over, the poor creature is put out of its misery. A sigh, looking back to his fellow hunter.

“Well, in about four hours, we’ve killed a deer. You think this’ll be enough?” It wouldn’t. He knew that.

Fuck Nintendo here how to emulate every FE game pre-Switch :

FE1-2 : https://www.mesen.ca/ for the NES emulator, https://www.romhacking.net/translations/6087/ FE1 EN fantranslation, https://forums.serenesforest.net/topic/97653-fe-gaiden-updated-namesfont-patch/ FE2 fantranslation It the NES, your computer can emulate it trust me

FE3-4-5 https://www.snes9x.com/ for the SNES emulator https://www.romhacking.net/games/303/, for the FE3 fantranslation (note that it use the European names) https://forums.serenesforest.net/topic/63676-fe4-translation-patch-open-beta-v7/ for the FE4 fantranslation, https://feuniverse.us/t/fe4-complete-fire-emblem-genealogy-of-the-holy-war-spanish-translation/27551 for the spanish fan translation https://forums.serenesforest.net/topic/90189-fe5-lil-manster-%E2%80%93-translation-and-quality-of-life-patch-for-thracia-776/, for the FE5 fantranslation.

FE6-7-8 https://mgba.io/ for the GBA emulator https://forums.serenesforest.net/topic/41095-fe6-localization-patch-v121-full-localization-with-new-features-including-support-conversation-reader/ for the FE6 fantranslation You can run mgba trust me again

FE9-10 https://dolphin-emu.org/ for the Gamecube/Wii emulator Dolphin is more demanding (but still very resonable), especially if you want to run the games on higher resolution. I recommend checking out the recommend specs and trying it out on your machine

FE11-12 Either DeSmuME or MelonDS for the DS emulator. MelonDS run better but require firmware files https://github.com/R-YaTian/DSiEnhanced_Translation_Revision/tree/main/FE12 for the FE12 fantranslation

3DS games Citra was an accidental victim of Yuzu going down so your best bet is to grab it from one of it fork, like here https://github.com/PabloMK7/citra. It require a strong computer to run it, and my experience is that it doesn't run the FE games very well. Another option is to simply hack your 3DS if you have one

For obvious reason I can't link the roms themself but they are easy to find, like on a certain subreddit that start with R
