Linked Universe except they all meet in the middle of their quests and theyre speedrunning the Goddess' quest because they have shit to get back to
#wait what? oh crap???#should i???#i havent watched many fs or zelda 1 speedrunners#but ive seen a few other speedrunners#ok ok#where should i continue??#its mostly towards Time#so firstly he could end up with a deku nuts and use it as a weapon#i just like the idea that poor Time has enough and even if he ends up with the wrong weapon he will be still successful#thing is mostly of them have to fight with the wrong weapons and have to always go back to that specif dungeon to get said weapon#but since its random its all survival and they have no choice use whatever they have#like Wild can be used to this?#i dont think Time or Legend would like ot#it#like imagine switching back to a kid and checking that dungeon more than once and he's like “again#“again i wanted the big goron sword but instead i got a rupee!!” he will stay silent but he gets more focused on that dungeon like#“guys we should check this dungeon again” following by a few laments#now Legend is so bitter he will just curse everyone in his mind#“wdym i have to keep getting ruppess#“i only did this dungeon to only get a single rupee??”#if you wanted to make ot mlre chaotic in Skyward Sword there are ruppors and so in twilight Princess#now Sky and Twilight are just tired that each time they try to do a dungeon they got rupees and then find rupoors??#SKy might be patient but oh boy he still gets tired and thimg is he has low stamina if you speedrunner in his game he'll just gets more#more tired and boyyy we know how Sky can get angry#Twilight is suffering he's gonna miss Midna#it was easier with her#hyrule oh boy if hes speedrunning he has to have many fairies bc ik that game has some difficult levels and boy he needs to be graced#and oh he needs to be way smarter#Warriors? i haven't seen much of speedrunners of his games but i suppose dude is getting confused and lost if it happens to him#four is just splitting into colours so often that even shadow is confused

永遠の昨日 第3・8話 | Eternal Yesterday ep. 3&8
#yeah. so. i decided to torture myself by rewatching this show. lost count of how many times i cried. way worse than the first time#knowing everything and still watching it was painful in a whole different way it was a brand new show even though i still remembered it all#eien no kinou#eternal yesterday#jdrama#watching this while it was airing and having zero clue how it was going to end was like a rollercoaster#cus i kept going oh... that looks bad. to oh wait maybe? to oh crap that sounds foreboding. to ohh maybe with this?? to oh shit oh god#and this time around it was all just... the knowing. not the knowing that it's a tragedy but the knowing how mitsuru will be in the future#knowing that koichi changed everything for him and even though he gave him the ability to connect with other people for the first time#he also took a huge chunk of that ability with him when he left#and we don't know if mitsuru will ever regain it#mine#bl drama#bl series#ANYWAY i just had to put my emotions into something so i made these to let it outttt#they're not exactly what i originally planned but i still liked making them and CRYING

What are some ideas you have floating around that you don't have any plans on writing but like to entertain as a thought?
Many of them, in fact! Though they sort of vanish from my memory if I don't make a record of them, here's a few ones I jotted down when they came to mind.
For a domestic one: Bill thought he'd hate a lot of being married! Even though he loves Dipper, he thought he'd rebel against the chains of domesticity - and in some ways he still does - but one major benefit he's found is not having to be 'on' all the time.
No need to be perfectly performing all the time! No shoving around for social influence, no intimidation, or clever tricks. No commanding attention or taking up the room. Hell, there's surprisingly little upkeep! Bill can undo his tie and pick his nose and bitch about his day to someone who isn't bending over backwards to agree with him on everything. Someone who doesn't give him a weird look and sneer if he, god forbid, actually wants to sit down, read a book, drop the grin for an hour or two.
The concept in question is Bill's very first moment of great surprise. That when he isn't being the most charming, terrifying, and exciting guy in the universe, and just chilling out for like, five minutes, Dipper comes over and snuggles up to him on the couch, or wraps his arms around his shoulders and kisses the top of his head. And when Bill asks 'what was that for?', Dipper shrugs and goes 'eh, just felt like it'. It's both baffling and extremely compelling.
A short where Reincarnated Dip is Definitely Sure he's Not Gay!!! Especially not for this Hot Demon Man who is getting so close and touchy with him with his big smile and horrible wiles. Yep. Just keeping an eye on him to make sure he's not up to something Nefarious ™.
A discussion between Dipper and Bill where Dipper insists that Bill should understand this, or not do that, because, like. Y'know, Bill's a guy! There are guy things! Making Bill stare at Dipper like he's an idiot. He proceeds to informs Dipper how that's stupid for multiple reasons! First, that Bill's Not Human to begin with, his gender can't be put into a little box! And frankly, he never filled out the paperwork for his original one, come to think of it. Sure, he/him's fine, but c'mon, sapling, thinking of the whole shebang like a binary is dumb as hell. Now Dipper has to do some mental readjustment re: his own issues with masculinity/gender.
#answers#None of this is very coherent I just saved this ask for a while and dumped some thoughts in#Though I do have like a whole scene in my head for the gender one#Probably it's Bill cajoling Dipper into wearing a dress for something. Which Dipper obviously rebels against.#Bill's very convincing but Dipper shoots back well. He's never seen *Bill* wear a dress. Thinking he's making a point#But Bill just gets the metaphorical equivalent of a lightbulb over his head. Hey! Good point kid it's been a while#Oh ho!!! I see! Pinching Dipper's cheek - you want us to *match!* Surprised to see any fashion sense outta you#Hold on a sec. Bill will whip up something in a jiffy. A real nice one#Now Dipper's spluttering. He thought it was a good counterargument but Bill didn't even *flinch* at the idea of wearing one himself#But like. C'mon Bill Guys Don't Wear Dresses!! You're a guy you shouldn't-#Bill stares at him like he's an idiot. DIpper shuts up. Dumb move actually now that he's thinking about it#Both because telling Bill he *shouldn't* do something absolutely means he's looking into doing it. If not already in the process#And second. Uh. Oh hell. Dipper remembers. That Bill's only wearing that body. Not human. Triangular so - Wait. Is he *not* a guy?? Uh.#Bill's perfectly fine with his human body and his pronouns. Even with the presumptions that his husband has made over the years#But Dipper having this idea that those mean Bill should STOP doing certain things annoys him a lot#Bill politely - for him anyway - reminds Dipper that he's very much *not* a guy. None of that crap applies!#As Dipper has seen! And hey the ideas Dipper's working with there are outdated even among *humans* what the hell#There's probably a mini-rant that's rather scathing but frankly that's Bill on easy mode for his husband#Dipper's well-intentioned and knows how things go but he struggles with masculinity especially regarding himself#Turns out being bullied and trying so hard to be Socially Acceptable means a lot of issues to unpack#Also re: the Domestic one#Dipper is present with Bill while he chills out for those five minutes. Just watching from across the room#Bill knows he's there. But he's not puffing up trying to be impressive. Not being dismissive. Just accepting. And now Dipper's *fascinated*#It's so rare to see Bill NOT 'on' that he couldn't help it. No big show. No big grin. Almost.... not 'vulnerable' he's terrifying always#But so so relatable. God does Dipper know the feeling of just wanting to find some peace and quiet after a hectic day. But for Bill. That's#Rare and strange and so - Dipper *knows* he's the Only Person who could ever ever see this. Being in Bill's presence for a full ten minutes#Without Bill flipping some internal switch to 'Impress or Intimidate'. This is Dipper's own little secret to watch and absorb and treasure#And. In a way. When Bill's not vibrating with potential energy for parties or violence he's even MORE handsome#He just HAS to kiss him. A little bit. On the cheek or on the top of the head. Maybe curl up next to him where it's warm and touch his ches#Bill spends hours afterward wondering where the hell that came from and WHY. And it'll take him *so much* time to figure it out

Typing about the best wildlife scholar made me realise something -
We know Dheginsea's extremist isolationist and non-interventionist policies were motivated by his wish to stop the propagation of wars, or at least, not to create a situation where the entire continent would be engulfed in War, else Ashera would wake up and erase the population.
Which is what he ultimately believes happened - that's why we fight against him in FE10, because the plot is stupid and cannot have Yune tell him "hi! We were woken by Galdr, Ashera mistakingly believes the inverse!" before his ultimate defeat.
But thinking more about it -
The Three Heroes (tfw Lehran's not part of the gang) made a pact with the Goddesses : they had to ensure 1k years of peace else they would stone Humanity. If they wake up in 1k years and the world is in chaos, they would stone it. If not, then kumbaya.
If they wake up before those 1k years due to war, the world is stone. If they are awoken by Galdr, they should, uh, talk to each other to decide what to do.
To Dheginsea, the only person who could sing the Galdr of Release, Lehran, lost the power to do so when he lost his abilities as a Laguz : ergo, without any possibility to wake the Goddesses up with Galdr, the only way to avoid Ashera's judgment was to avoid wars for 1000 years, even if it means... well, ignoring people suffering and letting them die at your doorstep.
So, Dheginsea, if he revealed the truth about Lehran, would have started a war against Beorcs (there's no way Laguz who know the truth will accept the status quo that if they live too closely with Beorcs they die), and without Galdr : Ashera wakes up "with war" and stones everyone.
If he intervened like Lehran wanted, and had Goldoa stomp Begnion/Beorcs who enslaves Laguz? Ashera wakes up "with war" and stones everyone, since she can't be waken up with Galdr anymore.
Hell, if Dheginsea terminated Ashnard and Daein as he planned too after losing Rajaion and Almedha (what FE10 tells us... but can we seriously believe this when in FE9 he dgaf about the situation?), again we have the same situation : Ashera wakes up due to war and stones everyone.
The only reason why the cast "won" and Tellius isn't stoned anymore is because unbestknown to Lehran, Dheginsea and well, everyone in Tellius, Lehran's branded descendants (who conveniently weren't all wiped out!) can actually sing the Galdr of Release and release Yune, who can circumvent the "Ashera wakes up with war and stone everyone".
-> When Lehran lost his powers and couldn't act as an alarm anymore, the only way to "wake the goddesses before 1k years happen" is with war and their judgment would be to kill everyone.
So Dheginsea had to grit his teeth and accept every fucked up thing that happened in Tellius because Lehran - due to this world's crappy mechanics - cannot "wake up the Goddesses" earlier and ask them to withold their judgment : if there is a war they will kill everyone - they must endure for 1k years, else Tellius is doomed.
Tl;Dr : TFW "make love not war" backfired in Lehran's case, and completely fucked up the covenant they had with the goddesses and if Miccy chocked on a pretzel, Lehran's love for Altina (aka him losing his powers) would have led to Tellius being wiped out even without his own participation.
#Tellius stuff#tfw the events of the game are triggered by the crappy universe mechanics#imagine their despair when Lehran loses his ability to sing the Galdr#'oh crap you were the only one able to sing to wake them up without the massive stoning what should we do?'#hopefully his branded descendants magically inherited the lyrics and tune but#can this also explain Lehran's despair that led him to agree to the massive stoning? idk#idk how much of a hand Lehran had in the entire Daein debacle#Goldoa being moved in the war Ashnard was trying to create fit with his plans#but it also implied he sacrificed his friend's children to have him 'react' and join the war meant to kill everyone?#or he knew Dheginsea and his kids would escape Ashera's judgment? idk#Dheginsea 'we only have to wait 200 years before they wake up we can do it'#Almedha 'dad i'm going to explore the world and fuck a beorc what could even happen?'#Lekain 'damn those subhumans what if I genocide a few of them for funsies? That'll make that subhuman blooded apostle mad lol'#'or maybe i can kill her too and rule over begnion for the lols?'#and then izuka graduated#those were the last 200 meters and they fucked the last lap#FE10#this verse I swear#how much Lehran's despair was fueled by his inability to keep his promise to the goddesses?#and how did the 'great news' affected his allies and the world?

capriclonus i am a huge fan <3 do you have any thoughts on shart/karlach?? sharts line of "she looks like she could throw me over her shoulder and carry me to safety... SHOULD the need arise.." fills my head with so many thoughts...
from that line alone i am almost 100% sure that shart has a thing for size/strength AAARGH!
It's crazy to think people are enjoying me BG3 work so much... I'm just sat here on my sofa sipping tea like....me? MY work? I just got hit in the head the with Shart bat a few too many times and its ruined my life (in a great way)
I do have thoughts of Shart/Karlach! I think they are a great ship and I love them, I ESPECIALLY love the art of them. But for me personally? I honestly struggle to see Karlach in a sexual context and I am very sorry for that. I grieve it every day.
Don't get me wrong, I think Shart/Karlach is a very concrete ship and Shart definitely would--that comment alone, uhuh--but Karlach is....she's like a younger sister to me? I see so many baby gay qualities in her that I just can't view her in that way: she's touch starved, overexcitable, VERY willing to say 'I love you' at the drop of a hat, wanting to follow a very predetermined line of what a relationship "should" look like because she hasn't had love before, not properly, and doesn't know what it looks like. AND I LOVE THAT! But that's why she's like a baby gay and little sister to me, because that part of my life is so far behind me it just makes me go "aw, look at her, learning how beautiful life can be!"
But here's the thing....those qualities that make me view her as a baby gay? Those qualities complement Shart so well! Because Shart, too, is learning what life is (if she turns to Selune) and she's just as excited to be a part of the vibrant fabric of existence in an entirely different way to Karlach and the parallels are EXQUISITE! You can do so much with them! I think they would have the most tender of loves, so soft to even see it would feel like being wrapped in a blanket of love and warmth. And if I wrote them together, that is how I would write them. So if you're interested in that, weelll, I'm open to it!
SO essentially, yes, I love them together. Not as much as Shadowzel (which is a whole other rant do not get me started) or Shadowheart/durge (again I will die if I talk about this) but I think their relationship has its roots in something so beautiful!
#ao3 capriclonus#ask box#im sorry i went on a rant again#in this house we love karlach#as much as shart dreams of being wrapped up in her big strong arms I think it is actually Karlach who would find herself cuddled to death#they would protect the crap out of each other#damn now i want to write a shart/karlach fic so filled with kindness and gentleness that it murders me softly#wait....have i just convinced myself to jump onto this ship?#am i flying the Shadowlach flag now?#oh no am i going to write Shart/Karlach fanfiction now?#WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

I am going to need that rewrite on my desk by tomorrow, 12 point font, times new roman, double spaced
noOOOOOO IT'S TOO MUCH WORK!!! I DON'T HAVE TIME AND I DON'T CARE ENOUGH........ girl help!
my rewrite where uhhhhhhhhhh. everything is the same except the writers actually care about female characters. a lot of decisions were made because of actresses no longer being available so plotlines like fish's are more or less the same but like, Ivy either gets to grow up normally or is never a child at the beginning to start with (you can go the weird plant body route if you have to keep her relatively younger since this is a prequel ig), and I don't... even know what to make of KK or Isabella, and Sofia should just be fucking. dont tell me there isn't a single female italian bodybuilder who can act, I don't believe you. let her be buff. let her take up space. let her be huge and wear vintage fashion.
also Oswald is fat and trans
#the problem is that largely i think gotham should suck ass#the only thing that really drives me up the fucking wall is the like. obvious sexism#every fully disposable female character makes me evil#i dont know what they were on about the riddler fangirl and i've chosen not to examine it bc i suspect you had to be there#in order to understand what whoever wrote that was mad about specifically. i can't stand that shit#'we have to openly mock some actually harmless aspect of our fanbase' ok but can you do it without being weird and sexist '🧍♂️'#but generally? the Stupid plotlines the Really dumb crap#whatever the fuck gordon is doing from episode to episode#...it builds character. i wasn't paying attention to most of it anyway#hey real quick look me in the eyes#there was something there. i hate the galavan arc so much but there was something there.#a sympathy. a kinship between tabitha and silver. tabitha was groomed for a role the same way silver is being groomed and she recognizes#the childish desire to please authority figures in their stupid bullshit organization even though silver can't see it because she's still l#living in it#did you guys see that? because i saw it#and it's in the middle of like. one of the worst arcs in the show#(the arc is fine the actor who plays theo is just so like. he has no charisma at all and something is Off about the whole thing bc of it)#oh wait no yeah actually. the stuff with silver is kind of hard to watch bc it would be interesting if they wanted to examine it#but it's a stupid drama series so it's just a love triangle even though she's a pretty sad character even within the writing in this show#and silver never comes back. and she doesn't need to bc they wouldnt know how to treat her#but did you guys see that too?#I like tabitha#anyway that arc is bad but i do think sometimes about silver saying 'my favorite animal is a dolphin bc they're magic'#and for a second bruce forgets the situation and looks like he's going to snap#exclusively because she said something factually incorrect about an animal#what was i talking about again

dysautomnia+adhd is only remembering to take care of yourself at your worst times and waking up knowing you need to shower like you have to shower and physically not being able to perform activities until you have done the shower but you cannot physically shower as you will most likely pass out or have a migraine so sitting at the couch doing the hand flicky and the stretchy (safe stretchy) and drinking water and eating chips until you can safely assume you will not do the faint 4 minutes into a shower…helppppp…
#whyyyyyy must life be so hard like fr fr whyyy#moping#oh wait no knights don’t mope#we brood#I’m brooding#4 cups of water later I’m not okay#but I am better#so that’s something#I don’t feel disabled until I feel disabled and then I’m like holy crap I am…disabled oh dear#pots syndrome#helpppppp#HEELPPPPPP#even sitting im too light headed what#at my inability to stand up currently#dysautomnia#orthostatic hypotension#orthostatic intolerance#adhd struggles#pls help#I just wanna be able to like…do smth today maybe?#also yeah I refuse to use the bathtub. that’s nasty.

it’s my weekend and I don’t have any appointments and it’s been snowing since like 2am so I’m having an indoor day to keep slowly organizing the new apartment and on purpose didn’t take my adhd meds (only have a few left and I’d rather save them for work if I’m going to have trouble refilling with all the weather closures) and Soup Brain certainly hits different when it’s not a workday. the lack of focus and memory still isn’t helpful but at least it doesn’t feel harmful when I forget what I’m supposed to be doing for an extended period of time.
#shhh sharkie#idk how to write anything simple without rambling so this is what you get#been slowly working on making big unorganized piles into smaller more organized piles and putting Away away what I can#it’s been a work in progress!!#at some point I need to go get furniture to replace what I left at the old place but we’ll get there when we get there#and to fill in new needs gaps#i’m still kinda mad I left the table cause I really liked it but I was so tired and frustrated trying to take it apart and it wasnt worth it#but anyway. I like the new place and it’s doing well for me and Sansa and I can’t wait for it to be acceptable enough to have people over!!#OH YEAH ANYWAY. SOUP BRAIN.#sometimes i wonder how i functioned at all before meds. my life is so much better and easier now.#it’s still difficult and sad and hard but! it’s so much easier to deal with all that stuff!! it doesn’t break me like it used to.#even on a day like today where i only took my anxiety meds and not my adhd meds#i haven’t gotten any of my written down tasks done (dishes and changing my sheets) but i have organized the crap out of several piles#(all of my costume stuff is in one box now! most of knick knacks are in the same box or on display!)#(I took out the trash! I put all the laundry in the laundry bag!)#little victories add up

Norton Anthology of Doin Your Mom
#i was looking in the library today at the norton anthology of english literature (either fourth or fifth edition)#and i was like 'what is the date of this book? this looks older than the used norton anthology of poetry i saw in a shop the other day'#'and i think that was a later edition--'#but i got it confused. i saw a 1994 edition of the norton anthology of poetry.#(i own the 1983 norton anthology of poetry. i got it for $3.99 at savers four years ago)#so the fifth edition of the norton anthology of ENGLISH LITERATURE. might've been older#text post#i can't believe i'd mix those up. but to me when i'm in the early-modern english section of the library im really only giving a shit#about poetry. so if i see 'literature' that better just be poetry. none of that prose bull crap!#my brain conflated it with what i would rather have been looking at#so then i skimmed through 'the women poets in english' (1972) compiled by ann stafford#oh no wait. stanford.#i had to look this book up to get the editor correct and google was no use so i had to go to the library catalogue. ugh.#that looked interesting but eventually i checked out a book id been meaning to read for awhile#triumphal forms: structural patterns in elizabethan poetry (1970) by alistair fowler#oh wait. alastair*#blah names are hard#because those of you who know me know there's nothing i like more than structural patterns and elizabethan poetry#just. nothing on this earth.#leaving my husband for a sonnet by john donne. bye

As im also a big rhea fan i do have to admit i also don’t like “alone b4 u” and at least enjoyed the church moments in hopes. However, i think that can easily be fixed with a few lines of dialogue (instead of the huge revisions ykb needs lmaooo): everything was normal between seteth and rhea and flayn until the eisners arrived, and then rhea started acting strangely; she started pulling away from seteth and flayn, being distant and weird and withdrawn. It can even tie into the diary scene/seteth questioning her, since he and flayn were obviously not privy to her homunculi, until the magic green hair dance happens and they suddenly understand. It can also fix a certain s support by reframing it under “i lost sight of my present and future by focusing on the past” instead of Alone B4 U. It doesn’t even need to change the game’s timeline of events or routes!
As an aside i’m still mighty pleased beach rhealeth is a canon duo and they like spending time together with the sand and the fish. All we need now is duo beach seteth n’ flayn to match them (and cyril but feh is mean to male characters so we’ll have to settle for him being a tempest trial unit i guess) and it’ll be a fun family beach episode 🐉🐠🌴
Oh,
AG is kind of an AU in an AU, but yes, in FE16 proper, I think even with Seteth who returned 20 years ago and Flayn who woke up last year, Rhea's still kind of closed of.
Like, she can goof around them because they are her family and she loves them, but there are still things, imo, she wants to do herself and she doesn't want them to know of, especially the "Rez Sothis" project.
Something like, she's more open with them than with the rest of the world and all, but they have been separated for so long that she and Seteth aren't as close as they were in Zanado, or even, in the War of Heroes.
Also there's something I noted thanks to voice line anon on their transcript of her lines in Nopes, at one point, she says this :
Flayn - "You have been working hard, Flayn. You have my utmost respect." 1,000 Enemies Defeated (same quote for Seteth) "We must strive to build a world where you need not dirty your hands in such a way."
(on pk in the jp version she says this instead "あなた方が手を汚さずに済む平穏な時代を築かなければ……" which more or less means the same thing?)
Coupled with her lines both in Golden Shower or Tru Piss - when she urges them to run away or, in Tru Piss, expected them to run away - this imo tells me Rhea takes her "duty" to protect and guide Fodlan personally.
It's not something Seteth and Flayn should do, and they shouldn't "dirty their hands" to make a better world, her own hands can be "dirtied", but theirs? She doesn't want that.
So yeah, in that sense, Billy's return and existence is somehow tied to her own duty - the one she cannot share with Seteth'n'Flayn - of watching/looking/guiding Fodlan.
And we know Rhea is desperate, because she thinks she's doing a crap job, but instead of complaining about it, she keeps it bottled. A bit like that meme "everything's fine" when the house is on fire, and Rhea has to keep pretening everything is fine, because it's her duty to watch over Fodlan, and Seteth'n'Flayn shouldn't worry about it - she's the one burdened by that, not them. Billy popping up would be her lifeline "it's fine everything is fine look Mother returned and at the end of the month everything will return to the way it was supposed to be, Sothis will fix everything wrong with Fodlan since I'm not able to do so"
and I could see the devs thinking this...
But - and this the biggest "but" - Rhea's lack of supports and ties to characters can't decently be erased by a mere "she ignores them because she hyper focuses on Billy", Rhea's close to her "brother like" figure, dotes on her niece, trains with her knight and protégée, and she'd just ditch them all due to this hyperfixation?
I don't buy it.
As you said, she could be acting weirder and weirder with Billy's signs they're awakening as Sothis's host, or something.
Maybe they could have made supports where Rhea avoids like plague to talk about the "current situation" and big events going on, and just talks about random stuff, like memories, training or picking on Seteth, encouraging Flayn and Cyril to make friends, etc etc...
And with the events of the game happening, her support convos could become more troubling, having supports where she refuses to talk to Seteth about "the demonic beasts" investigations, what's going on in the Empire and all, maybe with the final convo happening just before Jerry kicks the bucket, Seteth would try to grill her one last time, asking her to please let him in, he wants to help, and Rhea considers for a moment (with meaningful "..." points) but she doesn't and say everything's fine, Seteth seemingly abandons, saddened and when he's gone Rhea says she cannot allow him to help her again, it's her burden - (when he discovers the homonculi projet thanks to Jerry's diary he puts 1+1)
And the similar thing with Flayn would be just before the Holy Tomb map - Flayn worries about the "current state of things"and those people who took her blood, but Rhea oddly starts to talk about a celebration for the millenium year festival, how they could celebrate in the Monastery - Flayn could invite her new friends, and then she namedrops Flayn's mother who could also join, to Flayn's surprise, what the fuck is she talking about her mother's dead is she alright?? "yes everything is fine at the end of the month everything will be fine" -
And we know how it ends lol
In the end Rhea's revelation would be something more classical in the lines of her "relatives" pinching her cheeks saying she doesn't need to do everything alone, they can help her too - maybe with them telling her that both back then and now, they help her and Fodlan because it is something they want to do, not because she asks them to.
Maybe they'd tell her to stop feeling bad for what happened during the WoH, sure they lost people dear to them, but they do not regret it at all (with a bonus "Rhea feels like crap because if she never asked for their help during the WoH Cethleann would still have a mom and Cichol a wife and this ate her for 1000 years").
As for Billy -
instead of the "alone b4 u" maybe we could get a Billy centric piece about them feeling kind of bad Rhea apologises for... their existence? No matter the reasons behind their birth or heart transplant, they exist thank to her, right? So they'd tell her thanks, and it breaks her, because everything she thought she did wrong and her biggest sins - creating life - weren't sins since the people who were created were and are grateful to be alive?
I like your idea of "stop being so fixated on the path, look at the present and the future" and it's doubly nice if Billy is the one to say it, because they're Billy, not Sothis!
And it'd make a nice parallel in Nopes - Nopes is supposed to be a kind of bad AU where people don't develop as ideally as they do in FE16 without Billy - because in Nopes Rhea's all on the nostalgia trip, which prompts Seteth to remind her that 1000 years passed since she "borrowed" his shield or since Indech was last here (or since Willy died), they have to focus on the present.
Back to Billy, I'd think they'd be important as the person who tells Rhea that no, she didn't "royally screw up" since they exist thanks to her, and they're grateful + she can rest now, they will take up her job, or even better : since no one can guide the world etc etc alone, will she help them?
Revamped SS without "alone b4u" would still imply slightly tweaking some CGs and cutscenes, instead of having only Billy be present, Seteth and Flayn are here too - when she tells them they're in charge before transforming? Have Seteth with her (maybe saying Flayn already ran away, so what the frick is she doing, they should go, and Rhea nods, talks to Billy, and transforms). The cutscene when she's freed from the prison? Have Seteth pick her up, instead of Billy, maybe Flayn working some sort of magic, and Billy in the scene, visibly relieved as she thanks them and everyone for coming to rescue her. Shambala? More scenes with Cyril and Catherine, asking her if she's alright, if she needs to rest, maybe a CG of Catherine supporting her to walk or something similar with Cyril.
The final scene in the Cathedral ? Seteth enters first with his weapons, because he is the one who said they should kill her (even if i hate this plot mandated fight lol) so he feels like he has to be the one to do it, but Billy catches her and the scene goes as it does in the game.
Anyways - yeah I also like how FeH, Engage (and Cipher to a lesser extent?) represent Billy as liking to be with his lizard family, popping up with them, let it be for a swimsuit alt or for a Halloween alt - sure Gremlin!Sothis ruins the thing - but M!Billy's still on a event with Rhea, just like F!Billy. In canon they need to work a bit on their relationship, but there's no mistake were intended to be on good terms!
(even if in canon you have to be sad to fight against Supreme Leader, so Rhea must be sus, and everyone must tell you Church BaD else Rhea won't be sus, and Supreme Leader might not have a point, and we can't have that + FE16 made Billy the avatar/self-insert so they have to be empty enough to be able to pick each route and support every character)
#2goldensnitches#replies#it's longer than what i first thought lol#rhea stuff#lizard family time?#i reconsidered my earlier opinion on billy lol especially after seeing them outside of FE16 proper#when they can be something else than TV static because they must be able to nod and agree with Supreme Leader#you can't convince me Engage!Billy would just nod when Supreme Leader would be all 'y people are not giving up when i'm invading them?'#'it's their fault if must kill them right mah teacher?'#maybe this reading of Rhea makes her too similar to dimitri but she clearly thinks Fodlan is her burden#she is the one to act as a proxy for Sothis and given how she thinks she's doing a crap job...#before WoH she accepted to share the burden with Willy if the words for Adrestian coronations are anything to go by#But Adrestia became the Adrestia we know lol#And Seteth's priority is Flayn now maybe that's why Rhea thinks she's the one who has to fight alone#She doesn't want them to fight#oh wait it makes their death in Tru Piss worse#FE16#modern AU : Billy ditches Jerry to hang out with Rhea and Seteth and Flayn#bby!Billy is the kid who hides when their dad comes to pick them up because they don't want to go#Post SS when Rhea is fully recovered they have a Zanado fruit meeting once per month#when they do nothing but eat Zanado fruit and chat about trivial things on the star terrace especially not about work#Seteth found it hard at first but he came to appreciate those meetings
