#the overwhelming majority of Dimitri's fans look at his actions and say ''yeah it's good that he tries to atone for that shit cuz yikes''

[butwhatifidothis]

Losing my mind bc I just saw an Edelstan in the Dimitri tag say “nobody (3H fans) holds Dimitri accountable”. No SHIT fans don’t need to hold him accountable because the GAME already does!

In non-AM routes he dies brutally (because of HIS choices) and on his own route, he is being *constantly* chastised for his actions. When he DOES finally turn around, he admits to being responsible for pulling everyone along in a foolish campaign, apologizes, and backs it up with immediate action.

What the fuck else do these people want? Throw him in jail? Make him pay reparations to the families of soldiers he killed who invaded HIS country?

The only reasons Edelcrits want her due accountability is because the game itself *does not provide it*, at least on CF.

Like, if they don’t like other fans being critical of her, that’s honestly fine, but be honest and don’t make shit up that is blatantly untrue, lmao.

And like!! So many people hold Dimitri accountable for the shit he did! Yeah there's gonna be some people who try to erase all he's done, but literally every character with a fanbase is going to do that. But for Dimitri nah, for the most part his fans have him take responsibility for his actions - hell, some of them go so far as to say they make him unworthy of leadership! If that's not making him take accountability gone too far I dunno what is!

And like you said, the game has Dimitri be the only lord to consistently call him out for his bad actions - Claude has it sometimes, and Edelgard barely if ever, but they don't hold a candle to Dimitri. Why should we, as fans who've played the game (or I should say, ought to have finished the game by now. Cough. Cough.) go through and criticize Dimitri when we know he's already been criticized, he's already accepted responsibility, he's already trying to make amends, in the game itself?

They oughta admit to wanting to see him live that cottage core life and end it at that without trying to excuse it away with BS reasoning lmao, it'll make 'em honest at least
