Don't think about an FFT AU where Gwendolyn is the Ovelia. Do not. Odin Sphere and FFT are different and diametrically opposed stories. Odin Sphere is a fairytale played straight where all the major players are royalty because "prince/princess" is shorthand for "protagonist," FFT is a complete deconstruction of fairytales and monarchy-as-protagonists. It's a ridiculous premise. But maybe I'll daydream a little

#fft blogging #tactics blogging #odin sphere blogging #LOOK. look.#they serve different narrative purposes but ovelia and gwendolyn have very similar base desires #they don't want to be used. like that's the plot #they want to be authentically cared about by the people around them #and they are very suicidal self-destructive people who desperately want to live #they're awkward and suspicious people who default to authoritative language when threatened #that is only sometimes taken seriously #and they both imprint on the handful of people who appear to treat them as complete human beings #(delita and oswald)#(except i actually like delita)#their stories are different in almost every conceivable way #and ovelia is like that because of how she was raised (in a monastery)#so a roleswap would never work!!#...... but. imagine. gwen trained by agrias.#gwen getting involved in the A plot (big no no! never the twain shall meet!)#gwen and delita like what would THAT even look like???#anyway ignore me. I'm done
