#will she be disowned? will briggid stand with her and rebel against the empire?

Yeah lmao considering how Sylvain is referred to as a womanizer, it implies he's actually had success with flirting. Lorenz is probably an over-the-top dweeb in comparison 😂 I just really want to see Lysithea roasting people because she looks like a smol savage.

Sylvain seeing this tiny shy girl and big bro instincts activate so he tries to get Bernadetta out of her shell and she gets so stressed from being forced to socialise and misunderstands that he's harassing her for no reason

I'd also be interested in Hilda's supports with Sylvain and Ferdinand. Like, the guys in the Golden Deer probably know better than to fall for Hilda's charms so she outsources to the other houses but then she regrets catching Sylvain's eye lmao (because he's good at flirting and she doesn't want to be the one falling to another's charms? because he's a big bro type and reminds her of her coddling older brother? Possibilities are endless). Or Ferdinand knows what she's doing and nags at her to hold herself "as a noble should" but he gets tricked ANYWAY into doing her homework for her, that'd be hilarious.

Also imagine if Hilda was actually really great at fighting but few outside the Golden Deer know because she's always loafing off and acting like a little ol' damsel. Then one day Felix notices and HOUNDS her for a spar and she gets so freaking stressed because can you not expose me like this? I don't want people to take me seriously! They'd expect things from me!

Actually, any support from Felix, Ferdinand, Lorenz, Sylvain and Hilda would be my jam. They have HUGE dumbass energy and I'm here for it.

Mm Caspar-Felix support would also be good... Caspar-Ingrid would be hilarious too because I can imagine her being tired all the time ala "oh no my headache is back" whenever she sees him. Hilda-Linhardt being lazybums and avoiding work together. Hilda-Dorothea would be gossipy together and we learn a lot about the other characters from their support lmao.

I'm just thinking in terms of which supports have the potential to be really funny. On the serious side of things, Lysithea-Linhardt and Lysithea-Ferdinand could be interesting, since she seems to have criticism over nobles and their placing too much importance on crests or something along those lines. Dorothea-Marianne could be Wholesome Content, cos Dorothea looks like a genki social butterfly and would see this tol gloomy girl and try to cheer her up. Felix-Petra could be good, and Ashe-Bernadetta... Annette and Lysithea being nerds? Linhardt and Ignatz being nerds? If Hilda turns out to be a retainer to Claude, Hubert clashing with her over how one should act to a liege would also be interesting (but impossible since we can't recruit retainers lol). Mercedes-Bernadetta! The mum friend and smolest child would be so soft and calm wow.

But...

Writing this though, I realised... What if you start a support AFTER timeskip? Is it the exact same support as the pre-timeskip or will it be darker, heavier, more serious? Would we get conversations about how the recruited character feels about betraying their nation? Would IntSys go that extra mile to make me angst and waste time trying to get all the potential supports? My god this is too much lmao

Honestly, the most interesting thing about recruiting students from other houses is possible supports they cauld have, and hopefully they do.

Personally I want a support between Mercedes and Edelgard about why she left her status of nobility in Adrestia to live as a commoner in Faerghus. To be honest, it doesn't even need to be Edelgard. Maybe it'sjust someone who used to know her from her old social circles. Or maybe it would be Hubert, who might be suspicious of her entering the Black Eagles after leaving the empire.

What type of inter-house support conversations would be interesting to you?
