no no. you don't get it. the reason I injure my blorbos until they can't walk is because that's the only way they'll ever let someone else carry them. the reason I curse them to be sick and feverish is so that they'll finally open up about their emotions while delirious. the reason I force them to overexert themselves to the point of exhaustion is so that when they pass out they can finally rest.

I'm doing this for their own good.

woooow circle thinking about final fantasy 2? why would i ever do that. why would i ever refer to myself in the third person?! circle dash bircle never thinks about emperor... headcanons (and minwu)

so like we know minwu forfeited his life to lift the seal to ultima. i don't know, just the possibilities that stem from that are sooo delicious?

mateus is a magic guy, minwu is a magic guy. i think it would be fun if they knew each other before the events of the game. the thought of minwu teaching mateus magic and teaching him to become a white wizard stays in my brain all of the time because mateus has the capabilities to stay like that: he's got barrier and blink and slow and it's clear mateus has used those spells before, they're all defensive spells.

maybe minwu leaves to be the advisor to fynn or whatever, and then that's when the emperor decides to learn thunder: like NO, he's not going to be a pacifist! destroying fynn is only a step in his plan towards world domination and whatever, but i think it would really take minwu by surprise. mateus? the man he raised to be a white mage? the one he specifically tutored to never harm another soul? murdering? maiming? slaughtering?!?

so that's why i think he's so willing to give up his life. not only to keep the world safe, but because he knows the thing that should kill the emperor should be the thing he cast out of his life before he started destroying the world.

am i cooking? no. but i have more characterization to beat out of them. i'll talk about borghen next (no i won't)

Greetings, dear prey!

Hi :) it’s been like 3 months since I’ve drawn anything and idk what possessed me this night but I give you goth Valter. He’s a horrid man (FANTASTIC VILLAIN tho) and I want to run him over with a bulldozer but his VA in fire emblem heroes has an amazing voice and reminds me of a bunch of singers I listen to🖤 (hence the band posters, etc.)

That is all, drawing an unhinged villain is now checked off for my 2024 bucket list

jrpg/srpg recs? old or new doesn't matter, but it's easier for me to get around to games if they're older so I can load them on my psp or 3ds or whatever. in return I give you uhhhh have you played any of the department heaven games? they're more like weird srpgs, st!ng loves experimenting with their games. gungir is my favorite cause it's the most depressing (imo) and there's sibling angst

department heaven looks cute! t'will have to check it out someday :) sibling angst is always fun!

onto the recs:

jrpgs:

standard ff2 plug (20th anniversary edition is my fav personally...), the FFIV collection for the psp is complete and also the best way to play 2D FFIV (imo). of course the 3d version is also on DS so YMMV. I liked Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest for what it was, Final Fantasy Legend and its sequels are games that Exist but I didn't particularly enjoy them just because i don't like GB games. But they are out there!!

I know I'm not the kind of person to shill DB but I had a fun time with Buu's Fury on the GBA... and it's not a JRPG but if you like pressing buttons really good this might be up your alley.

Golden Sun exists, I think everyone should play Chrono Trigger if you have not already. I talked about it briefly in my last rec post but Lufia 1/2 are JRPGs that exist for sure. The Suikoden series is cool and I am itching to play Eiyuden Chronicles one day!!

Dragon Quest has handfuls of fun games, SMT of course exists as well and I am partial to Nocturne. I have never played Bravely Default but all of my friends who are into JRPGs more than I am sing of both games' praises, TWEWY exists, and for the 3DS I actually really liked Monster Hunter Stories which is nifty and very cute.

srpgs:

of course fire emblem as the SRPG probably everyone around this blog knows about. I wish I liked Tear Ring Saga more but it's not my thing personally, but if you like the kaga sagas I would recommend it! There are pretty people, so no complaining from me :P Vesteria Saga and the other games exist too. I haven't played them though, so no opinion from me! But they exist!!

OFC have to say FF Tactics, FF Tactics Advance, FF Tactics A2. I love FFTA but I know FFT is way better according to everyone. There's also Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings which people usually put as a JRPG but it's definitely not a traditional JRPG. I personally think it's very slow to control but it's not the worst game you could be spending your time playing.

People really like Tactics Ogre... I did not. There were two characters I liked but I just didn't want to sit through multiple routes - but hey, there's multiple routes if you like that stuff!

I have heard good things about both Project X Zone and Triangle Strategy, but I'm poor so I've never played either. However, I think a fun game is Summon Night 5!!! I haven't played any of the other games, but the characters are very cute and it is an SRPG so I am putting it here!

That's all off the top of my head. I have a million more I could probably recommend, but I'd be repeating myself and shilling FF2 more than I should. I hope some of these games inspire you to look for yourself! Or replay an old gem, or something :P
