Lovely Distraction

Hardworker Dimitri gets hard when he sees you in such a bold, provocative lingerie. Winter in Faerghus might be bitter and harsh, but your lovely husband is always more than eager to keep you warm thorougly and properly with his muscular body.

Warnings: Sex, lingerie, suggestive content, smut, creampie, breeding kink

Your bed is cold as you try to make yourself comfortable under the sheets, the other half of the mattress painfully empty with the absence of your husband. He’s off doing work in his study room, buried in a massive stack of paperwork despite it being some ungodly hour of the late night. Dimitri’s work is never finished as the new king of the United Fódlan.

As much as you love and appreciate his diligence, you wish Dimitri would take more breaks during the days and stop his work in the evenings so he could spend his nights with you. Your personal time as husband and wife is far and few between these days, it seems.

You bite your tongue, not wanting to sound like a nagging wife. But there are moments as time goes on that you feel very alone. Dimitri would leave early in the morning for his daily training and meetings and come back to your shared Royal Chamber late at night when you are fast asleep. Sometimes there are even times when he is gone for weeks for his kingly duties or quelling minor rebellions on borderlines, making you worry about him and think of the worst.

How long has it been since the last time you spend your time together? A month? Two month? Dimitri deserves a nice break. Maybe a little distraction could help.

You push yourself out of bed and change your outfit into something more appropriate for visiting Dimitri at his desk. Covering yourself up with a blue silk dressing gown, you leave your room to go find him.

You make your way over to Dimitri after pushing open the door to his study room and shutting it behind you softly, who’s hunched over his desk, quill scribbling haphazardly in his hand.

“Dimitri, it’s late,” you say softly, wrapping your arms around his shoulders from behind. “Come to bed.”

“Apologies, my beloved,” he replies, setting his quill and papers aside to reach up and lace a hand through one of yours. “Just a little bit more.”

“But I want you in bed now,” you whisper, kissing the side of his face. “Is there anything I can do to persuade you to drop whatever you’re doing and finish it in the morning, Dima?”

“I’ll join you later. Unfortunately these papers won’t finish themselves,” he chuckles softly.

“But I have a pleasant surprise for you—hopefully this’ll change your mind, love.” You pull your arms away from his shoulders and work on undoing the ribbon around your waist that keeps your dressing gown closed. The gossamer silk falls to the floor below silently, leaving you in a delicate harmony of white lace and blue ribbons.

Dimitri turns to face you, opening his mouth to say something, but he’s robbed of any speech when he takes in what you’re wearing. His cheeks turn red, so red you can see it in the dimly-lit room, blush illuminated by the oil lamps on his desk.

The blue velvet dainty ribbon wraps around your breasts is the shade of blue that leaves little to none for the imagination. Subtle flimsy lace along the top barely covering your breasts, disappears in the plunging neckline—suggesting a bold look. Pearl white fading into captivating sheer blue satin that accentuates your body perfectly.

Dimitri’s breathing is starting to come in pants as he reaches out to drag the pad of his thumb along the border between lace and skin. His skin is rough and warm, a luxurious contrast to the smooth texture of the lace. A breathy moan escapes from your throat when his large hands move along the lace of your leggings up onto sultry garter straps and your matching panties. It always seems like he is worshiping you with his hands any time he touches you like this.

“Do you know what you do to me, beloved?”

Dimitri pulled back with a lidded eye as he mouthed a thankful prayer to the Goddess Sothis. He’s struggling to find words: a compliment, a reprimand, anything.

“This is far from appropriate,” he exhales after what feels like years of torment. “I suggest you should cover up, dear. Winter cold is bitter and unforgiving here, in Faerghus.” The way his eye is darting all over your body betrays the way he scolds you for your clothing.

“Maybe I’ll need you to persuade me, Dima. I’m freezing,” you tease, stepping forward to circle around his chair, sitting on his lap. Your thighs are essentially bare against him, the sheer silk of your stockings and lace of your garter belt doing little to keep you modest.

You’re so very warm and your warmth makes Dimitri feel so alive. So alive. “Beloved, I insist, we should be getting to bed now. I-I will do my best to warm you, then,” Dimitri stammers, hands placed awkwardly on his desk. As arousing as you look right now, he’s far too embarrassed to reach out and grab you. This is his very first time seeing you in such a provocative ensemble.

You giggle, leaning forward to press your breasts up against his chest. The two of you are impossibly close now, bodies separated only by what he’s wearing, since your outfit can hardly be considered clothing. “But you were so insistent on getting your work done that you said you didn’t want to come to bed yet. Had a change of mind?”

He doesn’t have a reply this time, if his stutters and blushing are any indication for that.

“I’ll take that as a yes. Let’s at least have some alone time before we go to bed,” you offer, taking his hands in your palms and bringing his hands around to rest on your butt—bare, save for the straps of your garter belt that connect to your thigh-high stockings. Dimitri settles his palms onto your warm skin tentatively—his prudishness hasn’t faded in the months since marrying you.

Despite his hesitance, you can feel Dimitri hardening beneath his trousers, a bulge pressing up against your inner thigh. He leans in close to catch your lips in his as he moves his hands off of your ass to fondle your breasts. Pulling away from your lips to look you in the eye, Dimitri reaches for his large fur cloak on his desk and drapes it over your body.

“Let’s take some time to ourselves then.” Dimitri’s voice is husky as he whispers into your ear. Never in your life you had him tidying his desk in such a flash. Dimitri carries you back to your shared Royal Chamber Dimitri with utmost attention—careful to not hurt you with his inhumane strength.

A gentle smile blossoms on your lips when you tease him. “This giant cloak and fireplace are sufficient for me, Dima. I feel warm enough already.”

Dimitri raises a brow at you before he starts his strides to get you to your shared chambers. You know that hungry look, and your heart is thrumming within your chest from the excitement. Dimitri presses a kiss to your forehead before you rest your head against his chest as he continues towards the door. His boots echo through the hall as you are enjoying the feeling of being wrapped in his embrace. You can only hear his loud heartbeat in your ear, accentuating excitement that is visible on his flushed crimson cheeks.

The chill air and his fingers against your thighs make you shiver against the door. You barely close it behind your back when Dimitri turns his attention to the top of your breasts to nibble at the exposed flesh. He makes a short work of your lingerie—tearing the delicate fabrics with his teeth and hands, leaving you bare in seconds. Your breath catches from the intensity of the desire you see within Dimitri’s cerulean eye as he pulls you away from the wall, then lays you carefully on the bed—hungry eye feasts on your own.

Dimitri’s touch is reverent as his hands trace up your legs, brushing over your crotch. They continue their path upwards, grazing your body, over the curve of your breast, and the plane of your chest, making you shudder with excitement.

“I’m not done with you like this just yet, my love. Please let me know if I hurt you. It’s... been awhile.”

The tender kiss to your lips has you ripping open your eyes, blinking back the lust to admire the man on top of you. It’s maddening, how beautiful Dimitri is, especially in moments like this, when he thinks he’s being too rough on you while he is pressing the softest of kisses to your face.

“I trust you, Dima. You will never bring any harm to me,” you pause and give him a chaste kiss on his nose, “I-I want more of your attention. I miss you far too much, my love.”

Happy tears are brimming on Dimitri’s eye from your words. He presses his forehead against yours and murmurs, “Me too... I still don’t know what I did to deserve you, my dearest (Y/N).”

You’re surprised how well Dimitri is holding himself together because you are a puddle beneath his palms. He presses a finger to your lips and you obey immediately, licking the digit all over until it’s wet and his eye doesn’t leave yours as you work—Dimitri doesn’t even blink. It makes everything so much hotter and his cock jumps with desperate need.

His wet hand drags down, across the column of your neck, circling around your nipple. Cerulean blue eye meet yours, asking silent permission. You nod once, unable to look away as Dimitri hooks his fingers—tearing over your lacy panties keenly—the last article of clothing on your body.

You had lost count of how many of your garments Dimitri had ripped on purpose or accident. It is going to be another long night in his arms, but you certainly wouldn’t be complaining.

Finally, Dimitri makes it to your wet pussy, circling around it, and dips his finger inside, the slick allowing it to slide in easily. You can’t bite back the whine trying to escape when Dimitri pumps his finger in a steady rhythm, his thumb brushing over your clit.

Your legs tremble, nearly ready to collapse from the pleasure mounting higher and higher. You feel like your heart is pulsing between your legs, thumping louder and harder until you could no longer hold back. Gripping at the crumpled sheets under your hands, you gasp and cry out his name as a breathtaking climax runs through you.

Slowly you’re coming down, meeting that mesmerizing blue eye, blissed out from Dimitri’s fingers. You shudder at the loss when Dimitri slowly pulls his finger out of you, already missing the warmth. Your cheeks blossom with red when you watch as he brings it to his own mouth, sucking the taste of you off.

“D-Dima!! W-what are you doing?”

Heat pools in your stomach again as his tongue peeks out, licking the remnants of your juice from the tip of his thumb erotically.

“It saddens me beyond measure that I could not savor your sweet nectar, beloved. But I would agree that I wouldn’t want anyone else seeing your angelic beauty. That flush on your face while you breathe my name is something only I should be so lucky to take pleasure in, beloved.”

Your heart swells with pang of sadness and love for Dimitri. You can’t help but to kiss your husband passionately—pouring all of your love, soul, and devotion to him. It is a miracle that Dimitri is able to pull away gently from your embrace, backing off the bed to strip out of his boots, clothes, and pants hastily.

Dimitri crawls up your body with his nose and lips brushing your skin, taking in your scent. He turns your head and plants a heated kiss on your lips; stealing your breath and you eagerly pressed back with an insatiable hunger. You can faintly taste yourself in his mouth as Dimitri brings his hands forward to caress your skin, cupping at your breasts and kneading them in his hands. He tenderly fondles them, adoring their softness.

“You are one of the most amazing gifts I have ever received, (Y/N).” Dimitri brushes each thumb over your nipples, watching the pink buds harden. Those fingers begin to tease your nipples, twisting and tweaking at them in ways that make your hips jerk forward more to grind against his cock.

Humming in approval, your husband gives a light squeeze and chuckles at the gasp that falls from your throat. You take in a sharp inhale when he leans downwards to suck tenderly upon the hardened nipple, wiggling his tongue all across one of your breasts. His other hand keeps groping the other one between his fingers, all while your hips rock together in blissful harmony, enjoying how soft and delicate you feel beneath him.

His large hands slip around to grab your thighs when they melt into the mattress, ready for him. Dimitri’s intense grip will leave bruises tomorrow but you are going to pay it no mind—not when he sighs against your mouth, bucking his hips deliciously. His utter strength pushes you up the bed, has your back arching up into his warm, muscular body. Like a saccharine, you are eager for more delicious frictions but he presses you flat with his large hand on your stomach. Every point of contact your body has with him is on fire, alight with his touch.

“Dimitri,” you breathe, “Please,” you beg, raking your fingers desperately through his hair.

“Your wish is my command, my love.” Dimitri growls and aligns himself in front of your entrance. The tip pushed the outer lips apart with ease, and you gracefully accepted him inside. “F-Feels heavenly as always.” He groans at the tightness that surrounds his cock before beginning to pull back and thrusts forward to push his length deep inside of your pussy.

Dimitri did not falter with his thrusting. He impales his cock inside of your cunt, growling at how you squeeze his length each time he shifts his hips. It is perfect.

The bed begins to creak violently underneath the two of you as he increases in speed. Snapping forward with his hips, he starts to hit inside much quicker. The urgency of his sharp thrusts makes you gasp for a breath, air knocked out of your lungs, while finding a grip in his hair again to pull on.

His hips drive into you with more forceful pounding, permeating the room with the sounds of your love making—it is going to bruise from his force. This is ecstasy; The force behind his rams made you gasp and grunt, clawing at the sheets between your fingers with desperate need.

“Dima... I-I....!!”

Your body is overrun with the euphoria of another climax, cumming across his cock as he fucks you through the mind boggling orgasm. Your eyes roll back, and you shut them tight, twitching as Dimitri continues to stimulate you with rough thrusts.

You try to move and meet his thrusts but it’s all messy because you can’t think straight and all of a sudden he's grabbing both of your wrists from where they wander down the hills of his back, pinning them high above your head.

“Dima,” you slur, trying to move your hands from his grip. You want to touch him so badly, but his grip stays firm. “More…”

Whines and moans slipping past your lips without your permission each time he pushes forward with fervor—raw and fast. Dimitri feels himself on the precipice of release, getting closer each time the head of his dick kisses your cervix. He thrusts into you two, three, four more times before he grunts, pushing himself up to the hilt as his cock throbs inside of you.

“T-take it all, beloved!!”

Gasping, his cock bursts inside of you, releasing thick, warm loads of cum flooding inside of your womb. You let out a sharp cry of pleasure as you yourself come undone beneath him.

Everything’s all blurred and fuzzy, blissed out from your intense love making. You can feel Dimitri tremble as he groans into your skin, his nose buried deep in your neck. Dimitri stays still once the last bit twitches out, feeling his cock start to soften.

“Thank you, Dima. That was wonderful...” You whisper, still catching your breath after being so thoroughly railed by your husband. But Dimitri just smiles sweetly, leaning down to kiss you on top of your sweaty forehead, pushing some hair back from your eyes.

“Now that you feel warm enough... That was a great prelude,” Dimitri muses, trying to catch your breath. “May we have another round?"

Rosy pink on Dimitri’s cheeks is a juxtaposition to his recent ferocity. Your heart melts when you watch him fiddling with the blanket nervously and looks away from you. He doesn’t even notice when you reach for something else to wear from your wardrobe.

“I would not mind another intrusion like this on my study room in the future from my lovely wi—.... Beloved!? W-What are you w-wearing...!!”

“I feel a bit cold since you have ruined my clothes. So I had to wear yours, Dima.” You can hear Dimitri’s breath hitched in his throat when he sees you clad only in his fur cloak and a small strip of panties with sheer flower embroidery. An innocent smile on your lips is a sinful contrast to the enchanting picturesque—especially when Dimitri is gawking at his thick cum dribbles on your inner thighs lewdly.

”I will make sure that you are... Ahem. Thoroughly and properly warmed, then, beloved,” he gulps and pulls you on his lap, admiring your gorgeous body. “I do not think we would get any sleep if you keep on teasing me like this, (Y/N).”

“Then let us not.”

He puffs out a laugh and it’s music to your ears. You can’t help yourself rolling over and kissing the sound from his mouth, tasting the sweet noise on your tongue.

Dimitri sure has a soft spot for delicate lingeries. You make a mental note to send your personal thanks later to Mercedes and Annette who had recommended them to you. It would be wise to get more to provide for your husband more..... distractions in the future.

Man, if I had a nickel for everytime a godly/divine group was called colonizers that deserves to die primarily by a niche of people trying to justify the morally questionable/lacking decisions of a fan fave character, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't much, but it's weird it's happened twice right?

That's been playing on a loop in my head ever since all this kicked up. (Especially relevant given the lunatic who's been running around claiming the Nabatean genocide was good and that all white people should die and then pulling Schrödinger's Joke when called out.) Fortunately, Imogen is a genuinely compelling character played by a real human woman rather than a cobbled-together mess written by a group of conservative corporate men who desperately want her to appeal to adolescent boys—but the "I support women's wrongs <3 unless I actually have to deal with their implications in the narrative" fan crowd functions the same for both.

And I know you didn't really ask about my thoughts on Imogen (TLDR: I enjoy her in canon a million times more than in fanon), but I had some:

To be clear, I like Imogen a lot! She's kind-hearted and irritable; caring and withdrawn; moral and cynical; clever and impatient; protective and ruthless. She does everything in her power to keep her friends safe, but she still looks at their murderers and wonders (in front of her friends!) if they have a point. She wants to keep innocents out of harm's way, but she doesn't seem to clock that the people of Gelvaan might be wary of her because she almost killed some of them. She never asked for her powers and is sometimes afraid of herself because of them, but she's also intrigued by what they can do and won't hesitate to use them for what are sometimes, in the scheme of things, rather petty reasons.

All of that is good—not because her unpleasant actions are excusable, but because they say something interesting about her as a person. And in order for unpleasant actions to actually say anything, they have to have actually been unpleasant, rather than handwaved away under mountains of blorbofied excuses.

It's the same with Percy, where in order to engage with him fully as a character I have to actually acknowledge that he's both a deeply flawed and deeply virtuous person who helped resurrect a child he'd never met and knowingly gave a cursed sword to his friend. Or, to bring it back to FE3H for a second, I wrote this meta a few months ago about why I find Claude to be more compelling than Dimitri, and the summary of it is that I actually enjoy the moments where Claude acts like kind of a dick because they're very grounded and it fleshes out his character—but I have to actually acknowledge that Claude was acting like kind of a dick before I can really appreciate that facet of him.

Plenty of criticism aimed at Imogen is just thinly-veiled misogyny, but some of it is also criticism that's been leveled at Percy, Vax, Caleb, and Fjord, so that's clearly not the only reason behind it. A fair bit of the complaints we're hearing (Main Character Syndrome, why is it all about them, [player] is hogging the spotlight, etc) are, at the end of the day, usually more rooted in "well why isn't it about my blorbo/escapism experience!". Ultimately though, the difference between the good- and bad-faith criticism is that every single person I've seen actually engaging with realistic implications of Imogen's flaws absolutely loves her and isn't at all shy about saying so.

I mean, y'know, people can engage with fandom however they want—but if you're only willing to grapple with negative emotions as far as "oh i made myself sad :(", you're going to have a very difficult time when someone else's choices make you a lot more than sad.

sylvix 8 14 and 16 bc the ship meme popped up on my dash again :)

\(￣︶￣*\) I appreciate you! Thank you for the ask.

8. Do they have any children? If so, do these children predate the relationship or are they a result of the relationship (whether through birth or adoption or otherwise)? Does any partner excel in their child-rearing? If so, is this because of education, experience or instinct?

Picrew 1. Picrew 2. Picrew 3.

I never really explored a lot of my oc Fae's post-canon world publicly, but Sylvix are together there and it was my headcanon that trans Felix would not be comfortable carrying a child to term, and so they adopt Elspeth. There were already so many Faerghan redheads, that I didn't feel bad about going that route with her design.

I've seen a few people headcanon Miklan a child that they adopt, and have sometimes played with the idea that she's that, but otherwise her origin isn't angsty. Happily chosen by her parents in an orphanage because she was scrappy and because her hair reminded Felix of Sylvain's. A brighter, quieter swordsman than Felix was in his youth, who still manages to remind people of him somehow. A Fraldarius in every way.

She's adopted between five and seven, so they miss some of the younger years and milestones, but are around for her to be young enough that she still mimics some of Sylvain's exaggerated / flirtatious smiles, that she still requires a basic education besides one that would be specifically required for people of their rank, that other discoveries and heartbreaks and illnesses are still a new and delicate thing.

Felix is better with making Elspeth feel better after an injury, or handling colds and impatience and distraction. Sylvain is more approachable with emotional conversations, but I don't think he's the best at them or that he'd want to have them without Felix present so Elspeth has to deal with both of her parents talking about her insecurities and desires almost like strategy. Ultimately it works because Felix and Sylvain are mature and kind-hearted and attentive to their daughter, but it's definitely unconventional.

They're always trying to pull each other closer. A whole family with a concern of living up to deserving one another.

Picrews 4&5. Other ot5 kids here.

I also want to add that she's at the Officer's Academy at the same time as two of my ot5 kids: (Hilda and Lorenz's youngest) Baldovin or Vinnie, and (Fae and Claude's only daughter) Sadaf. Vinnie and Sadaf, despite having different birth parents, near consider each other twins. Born only a few months apart and raised together by parents who were involved with one another, they're very familial at least, and the best of friends.

I wouldn't say I ship any of my next gen (with the specific exception of a merciedue fankid and an ot5 child), because I've not really invested in them as teens / adults the way that I've invested in them being children, but I like Elspeth developing a crush on Vinnie, and friends with both of them.

Baldovin is nothing like very little like Lorenz in temperament, unlike his elder siblings. He's loud. He's boistrous. He's short as a Goneril. Here's another paragraph about him from this post:

Baldovin (minor Crest of Goneril: Sometimes allows combat arts to prevent enemy counterattacks.) is a fortress knight. A slow, sturdy wall of armor. Lives to defend, and tries to incapacitate. Sympathy for his enemies. Feels like attacking marching units while mounted on either wyvern or horseback is unfair to man and animal, and thus only uses mounts to get from point A to point B. Crest nonsense: WILL wrestle your wyvern for fun, and enjoys the shock in how their necks rear back when his Crest allows him to pin their chin down while their wings struggle (squish that cat).

I also feel obligated to mention that in Fae's canon / post-canon, Sylvain joined the Golden Deer, and Dimitri survived Gronder but did not end up ruling as king. I have a few dimimari fics about where that left him, but they aren't fully transparent that Felix also remains his best friend.

14. How often does each partner cry? How do their partners engage or react to the differences in emotion between themselves and their partner(s)?

I think that while Felix did grow out of crying as often as he did as a child, that Sylvain cries a lot and unfortunately for Felix, it becomes more and more likely that seeing Sylvain in tears makes him cry also. Felix puts in so much effort post-canon in his relationship to Sylvain (among his platonic relationships to others), so that they can have harder conversations and feel better — and not simply awkward, after vulnerabilities are shared. It surprises Sylvain how bad he, himself, is at communicating, but it becomes more obvious through Felix's growth and efforts. They still have time to be young men together, and Sylvain also improves at giving tears their space, whether from sadness or otherwise.

16. If prompted to describe what love and / or acceptance feels like in their relationship, what sort of answer would each partner give? If this is not their honest answer, what would be the true answer for them?

Felix would say it feels like coming home. Like having a place to rest and not have to worry about being anything but you are.

Sylvain would say it feels like a warm fire after ages in the cold, like something you want to throw yourself into to recover from the chill, but that you have to wait for and tend and appreciate for it to steadily warm you.

I'm sorry but ever since someone pointed it out I can't stop thinking about it lol:

Seteth on SB: The Gard may be attacking us and driving us from our homes but she must have reasons!

Dimitri on AG: The Gard may be invading our lands but some of her reforms are so admirable!

Shez to The Gard in their supports: Your war might be ruining lives but you probably thought a lot about it and things were kinda bad in Fodlan anyway!

Claude on GW: IF IT'S A FIGHT SHE WANTS IT'S A FIGHT SHE'LL GET I'M NOT BACKING DOWN (with the "THE NERVE" voice line to back it up)

HILARIOUS how out of everyone in the routes, Claude is the one to take the most stout stance against The Gard's war, without anything trying to soften her up as "maybe not that bad you guyz" getting in the way. There's no "well maybe she has her reasons" there's no "well she's doing good here" there's no "well she's doing what she thinks is right" there is ONLY "She is bringing war to my land and I will not tolerate it." Not to overlook Dimitri's stance against her too - it's impressive in its own right - but it's nice to see someone finally not try to give her any slack after she's demonstrably proven she's not deserving of any. It's just a demo so who know what the full game will reveal, but in the meantime... so much for "Claude would totally side with her" lmaooo

Wanted to reach into the screen and RATTLE the Lion man because Dimitri !!!! What are you TALKING about! From what I can tell she kept the nobles where they are; she still has a church, and it's one he doesn't like--surprise surprise, because it's Imperial rule dressed up as religion. It seems like she's done literally nothing different from Three Houses--in fact, she's done more!--and we only have the context of her war without the explanation of her reforms. I'm sorry, but why am I supposed to care that she's reshaped her country and STILL decided she wanted to tear Fódlan a new one. I'm not gonna say she didn't? change Adrestia in an admirable way? Because I don't know what she did. But it's BECAUSE I don't know what she did that I can only stomach Claude's response lol. Like when someone is knocking at your door with the intention to invade the shit out of you, you don't care. You're going to fight them tooth and nail and you're going to make sure they know better than to ever show their face at your border again; that's how you keep your country intact.

Slightly off topic, but was I right to see that Seteth was all "because she established a church she made an enemy of us an not the faith!" My brother in Sothis...a church established by the state? Are we joking? 😭 Why are the writers so intent on giving her leeway when she has none. Really hoping he changes his tune when she comes for his ass when his only crime is being Nabatean.

What also gets me is that Claude is the only one who hasn't been irreversibly antagonized yet; his route starts in defending Myrddin, whereas SB starts PAST Myrddin, and Dimitri already has to take in refugees. And yet, Claude is the one to get scrappy with the Empir lol?? Dimitri does say that he's not going to tolerate the injuring of his people, or the war in general (they kept you intact, my baby 🙏🏻), so I'm curious to see if his appreciation for her reforms comes from the fact that he's dealing with quite the bit of infighting that anything looks better? Because I don't think Faerghus would be any better off for having changed to look like Adrestia.

I'm trying not to be harsh because...demo. but also. I'm so not in the fucking mood to explain away her violent conquest. Here's hoping they don't do that 🙏🏻

#tl;dr: Dimitri's response doesn't frustrate me in a vacuum but it concerns me knowing how bad it can become #fe #fe3h (the remix)#fire emblem warriors: three hopes spoilers #fewth spoilers #s responds #fea-and-fehf-headcanons #conquering is BAD; that's all there is to it lol

#8 from the heartbreaking prompts “how many times has he told you he doesn’t love you?” for hudue (but you can have it be like. The line applies to a different unrequited ship if you want. Or not.)

Love any excuse to come back to these two.

(Currently accepting rare ships! Click here for the info post!)

Dedue watched as Ignatz trod on Dimitri’s foot for a third time. With a wave of her hand, Dorothea signaled for the violinist to stop playing and moved forward to correct Ignatz’s position. Red bloomed on Ignatz’s cheeks but Dimitri seemed more amused than anything else. Under Dorothea’s instruction, the couple readjusted their arms, then the dancing began again. Dimitri leaned forward and murmured something to Ignatz that made them both smile.

“Too much work for a first dance if you ask me.” Felix had appeared at Dedue’s side, leaning back against the wall with disinterest-- though his eyes were trained on the king and his fiancé. “You’re off duty,” Felix continued.

“I merely came to check their progress,” Dedue said. There had been some improvement since yesterday but he was still glad Dorothea had stepped in to assist them.

Felix grunted. Crossing his arms, he said, in a low voice Dedue only barely heard above the violin, “How many times has he told you he doesn’t love you?”

Dedue looked at him. “Who?”

“The boar. You’ve been acting strange lately. I hope you’re not pining after him or something. Every woman in Fódlan is already doing that.”

“I am not pining for His Majesty.”

“Good.”

Dedue couldn’t help a small smile. “Are you worried for me, Felix?”

Felix scowled and uncrossed his arms. “Even lapdogs deserve to be happy. That’s all I’m saying.”

The music stopped again, and they both looked up to find Ignatz rubbing his shoulder and Dorothea lecturing a flushed Dimitri about holding on too tight. Dedue shook his head. “His Majesty knows how I feel about him. But I appreciate your concern.” Felix didn’t seem to think that was worth responding to, so Dedue merely nodded to him and left the room.

Castle Fhirdiad was growing busier by the day. The wedding was still a week away, but everyone had a part to play in getting things ready. Edelgard’s arrival seemed to have impressed upon the staff how close they were getting to the big day-- and Claude’s arrival in a few days would surely increase activity tenfold.

But Dedue had the evening off. So he made his way to his rooms without pause. Inside, he found quite the welcome sight.

Hubert sat on the couch before the roaring fire, holding a book in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other, already dressed down for the night. When he saw Dedue, Hubert put down the coffee but kept reading the book.

Dedue began taking off his armor. “I believe Felix expressed sympathy towards me just now,” he said in greeting.

“We should speak to Mercedes about getting him looked over,” Hubert replied dryly. He turned a page. “What did he say?”

“He seems to think I am secretly in love with His Majesty and thus in pain over his engagement.”

“Hm.”

“He said I deserve to be happy.”

“On that we agree.”

Free from his armor, Dedue sat beside Hubert and lifted his arm in invitation. Hubert filled the spot without hesitation, fitting against Dedue’s side and letting out a sigh. “Perhaps it’s time we told everyone,” Hubert said, closing the book at last.

“Perhaps.” Dedue tucked his chin over Hubert’s head. The smell of coffee still lingered, a scent Dedue associated with Hubert so much that it never failed to set him at ease. “His Majesty and Emperor Edelgard took the news of our relationship well enough. But I would hate to distract from the wedding preparation.”

Hubert let out a snort of amusement. “You show your pride in the strangest ways sometimes. You truly believe news of us would distract an entire castle?”

“Not the entire castle, no. Our friends, maybe. Felix most definitely.”

“Well then. For Felix’s sake, let us hold off a little longer.”

Dedue hummed his agreement, wrapping an arm around Hubert. “Just a little longer,” he repeated.

He didn’t mind, really. As much as Dedue enjoyed the image of dancing with Hubert at the wedding the way other couples would be, there was something nice about keeping Hubert all to himself. It certainly made moments like this-- relaxing against one another after a trying day-- all the more special.

fe3h support thoughts

Ingrid shouldn't have had an ending with Claude. The Claude Ingrid support is one of the worst support chains in the entire game. Entire thing just rambles on and on. It has the plot and structure of your typical C-B support where the two people start off antagonistic or have a misunderstanding but then come to realize the other person isn't so bad but instead of the usual 2 conversations this takes place over, the Ingrid Claude one drags on and on for FOUR scenes of this nonsense. It's the B support line formula that most of the other B supports use where at first they aren't on the same page but then come to appreciate each other. But for some reason their support just drags on and on and on and it doesn't add the depth you'd expect from an A support.

Ingrid's supports with Ignatz and Raphael where fine, I liked them though I think they could have done more with Raphaels. Loved having the two big eaters of the group have a support but Ingrid could really learn about grief and healthy coping mechanism from Raphael (most of the blue lions could really).

Pretty much all of Hanneman's paired endings should have been platonic. The hanneman supports are so weird in that for the most part they're good and they're all platonic but then halfway through some of the A support it takes SHARP turn and becomes romantic out of NOWHERE, it is incredibly jarring. Like they took a perfectly good non-romantic relationship and shoved in an unwanted romance last second.

I'm going to write a petition to give Flayn female friends. Flayn deserves more women in her life! Not even paired endings I just wish she had more supports with women. Some of her supports with men are very interesting or reveal more about her character but others were kinda just filler and easy could have been replaced with other supports.

I find the Shamir Claude ending funny just for the sheer number of positions of power Claude runs away from. Duke of Riegan? Outta here. Leader of the Leicester Alliance? Sayonara. King of Unified Fodlan? Nope. King of Almyra? My work here is done.

Hapi is the blue lion member of the ashen wolves with more supports with them than the other wolves but she shouldn't be. Thematically I'd argue either Golden Deer or a neutral 4th party like abyss is better for her. Golden Deer is all about outsiders and perceived notions, expanding worldviews and greater perspectives, the truth, and the way the mysteries and histories of the Church, Fodlan, Crests, nobility, the Children of the Goddess, and the Agarthans are all connected. Hapi's life story started because she wanted to leave her isolated village and see the world. Her life was greatly influenced for the worse by both the Agarthans and the Church, its because of both of them that she is where she is. She's technically from the Fodlan continent but she's not really a Fodlander either culturally or in perspective in a lot of ways she's more like Dedue who is from a separate culture. I think the devs made a mistake. Yuri is the one with all the history with Faerghus, he's a Faerghus boy through and through with Farrghus values and Faerghus ties. However since he's house leader the devs wanted to write him as the neutral 4th option when that doesn't make sense for him as a character. He was a part of house Rowe, he and Ashe have parallel stories, he probably knows the inner workings of the Farrghus court and nobility very well. Yuri should have been the Blue Lions support character instead of Hapi.

Sylvain, Ingrid, and Felix are especially close. Due to being the prince but more importantly closing off after the Tragedy of Duscar, Dimitri in recent years hasn't been as close to the others. Dimitri closed himself off after the Tragedy so I can see why he and Sylvain don't have an A support. Also while they knew each other in childhood, living indifferent territories, Dimitri's closest friends weren't Sylvain, Felix, and Ingrid.

Manuela and Edelgard's supports were about religion and how Edelgard initially viewed religious people as weak, relying on religion instead of standing on their own. Manuela shows her how religion can be a personal relationship that can make people stronger. It's one of the more interesting philosophical moments in the game (the others come in some of Claude and Linhard's various supports off the top of my head)

I'm a bit torn if I should buy fe3h because from what I've seen I'm not really a fan of Shez. Would you still consider the game worth buying?

Short answer: no.

Long answer: the gameplay is improved over the original Warriors, there's some good expansion on the Three Houses mechanics and some of the supports are really good. But if dad hadn't paid for it I wouldn't have bought it with my actual goddamn money.

Shez would've been a good protagonist in any other game, hell they could've gotten their own new entry into the franchise, but instead they yanked a perfectly good protagonist out, put her on the back burner and slapped someone in her place that doesn't FIT but is forced in anyway

And I'm not saying that cuz I hate Shez, I don't. But the way they're trying desperately to make them seem like they belong among this cast of pre established characters just isn't working

Like, when you start Claude's route he almost immediately trusts them. A mercenary of no renown with a VERY obvious connection to the ones behind Monica's kidnapping. That's...extremely ooc considering how long it took him to open up to Byleth

Dimitri puts a no name mercenary AT THE HEAD OF HIS GODDAMN ARMY because uuuuuuh "he needs someone leading them who is trustworthy and not a noble" like no offense but are you for real?

I appreciate some of the changes, like that Jeralt doesn't have to die if you do it right, how some of the less popular character traits are downplayed or even outright removed, the inclusion of characters who were mentioned but never seen before or that you're confronted with the Agarthans more openly than in the og game, but they could've literally done any of that with Byleth too

Shez feels...obsolete somehow. Which isn't fair to them cuz they're a good, fun character with quirks and personality. Shez deserved better, Byleth certainly deserved better than to be sidelined like a piece of wood and either killed by a canon foreigner or recruited by said canon foreigner only to not even get support conversations with the 90% of the cast that absolutely adored her in Three Houses

In my expert opinion, play Three Houses, watch the Three Hopes supports on goddamn Youtube

I would've literally bought Three Houses again if they'd been like "hey here's the EXACT SAME GAME except Byleth talks now" and regretted it less

Not to mention some of those truly atrocious design changes. Like, did you watch too much Shonen anime Sylvain?

They did my girl and my kids dirty.

Also, I know this is biased but the whole premise of Three Hopes invites you to be biased because it's set in a preexisting universe that had its story told and its characters reach the end of their journey. We've lived through Fodlan, we witnessed all of these characters' stories before, we have our opinions and headcanons and preferences in routes, Lords and endings

Like, most of the people playing this will be coming from Three Houses so we're all gonna be biased to some degree. Is it really a surprise that I'm kinda mad now?

Will there be people who disagree with me on this? Certainly. Do I care? No.

SB exists to guilt those in Faerghus who are just trying to defend their homeland. There's really nothing more deep than that. Make the victims feel guilty for daring to oppose the Waifu red emperor conqueror trying to invade them. That's legit the only reason Shez says that to Ashe about "wHY yOU make Lonato FeeL bAd?"

It really is sad how both games and in Hopes two routes just make them seem terrible for defending their home. I appreciate that Claude eventually is a bit pissed that they didn't even consider why Dimitri was fighting because they were too focused on finding Rhea in the battle and that they need to consider Dimitri too, but I hate that most of the time they're made out to be "wrong" for fighting back.

I understand that Rhea being there means they have to get past the Kingdom, but like Dimitri and his retainers said, they had the choice to shield her and fight the Empire or submit their lands to the Empire. They knew all along Edelgard was out for conquest and knew what would happen if they didn't fight back. Out of nowhere their only choices were to surrender their territory and laws to the Empire, or to protect the Church's people who had never wronged them and only ever assisted them during troubling times. Either way they already had a shitty decision to make and I've actually seen people say Dimitri chose to be part of the war. Like, no, he chose to fight back because it's not fair for them to lose their lands/their authority to the Empire for doing absolutely nothing to the Empire. He could've left Rhea and her people to fend for themselves, but the Empire would eventually still attack them, as proven by them attacking Leicester who was not shielding the Church's people.

I would understand more if it was written to be directly from the Empire's perspective, like, them framing them as being at fault because "your land used to be the Empire's land", but all the routes kind of portray it as "Faerghus BaD because they respect themselves and their home and don't think deserve this". SB is just the most notorious about it and makes Dimitri out to be a villain for... doing absolutely nothing. He was minding his business and working on internal affairs while the Empire and Alliance were going at it. He could've taken a side and just joined in to help Claude's side, but he didn't. He stayed out of it as much as possible and only defended when attacked.

That line from Shez was just atrocious to me lol. Everyone knows Lonato was a turncoat and that should be reason enough for everyone to understand why Ashe wanted to fight. It had nothing to do with making Lonato feel bad. If Lonato felt bad about it then that's on him and he had to have known that was a risk for his choices when his own son was a royal knight for the king that he was betraying. Ashe made a decision based on Lonato's pre-existing decision.

Honestly besides for Shez being questionable sometimes, Empire Shez is... like I said before, kind of a psycho and a huge manipulator. Convincing Ashe he's in the wrong for fighting for his homeland and king is awful, and Empire Shez also wants to murder Claude who is also just defending his home from the Empire and have him be a trophy for the Empire because Empire Shez just wants money even if it means killing the guy who was very kind to you two years ago.

I don't feel like I'm being bias toward the Kingdom when I say this, but Faerghus Shez is the one who seems to have actual friendships and genuinely cares for the people around them. Like, most of the time when I point things out about Faerghus it's not based on a pre-existing bias, but that that bias comes into existence because they're the more humane people. I hate how it's the good, humane people who get made out to sound like villains for fighting back and not just letting someone take over their country.

By those standards, the irl war going on right now is like, these people are wrong for defending their home against their invader and should just let themselves be conquered because ??? Pooface wants to conquer so they should just let themselves be conquered ???

Like... that's not how it works lol, if you get attacked you fight back. People defending themselves against invasion is not wrong and it's disgusting for Faerghus to be treated that way. If it was an irl situation it would not be treated that way and that's literally happening in real time irl. Right now what's happening is no different than Faerghus being invaded by the Empire, and most of the world's continents and countries are on irl Faerghus' side and helping by sending what help they can. So... I'm not sure how anyone could play Hopes and walk out thinking Faerghus is bad for defending their home then turn around and be the exact opposite person with the war happening in our own world.

#I mean this is literally a case of Faerghus did nothing wrong lol they were just... existing #they were fixing up some internal problems and suddenly had to make a choice #and both choices were bad but they knew the Empire would attack them no matter what #the decision to help the Church was made with several factors involved and all of them were positive #whereas not helping them was several factors of negative #Faerghus was legit being attacked from all directions and somehow they're the bad guys in this?#methinks it stinks of waifu and marketing bias and that stink is STAAAAANKY #DCE Ask

anon asks ranting about 3h.opes / negative (but not mean toward me) also some spoilers

After being on an emotional tug of war since the demo dropped, I’ve made my peace with this game. It’s a non canon what if/retcon bad ending of Fodlan without Byleth. I going to enjoy it for what is and replay 3Hs to was the bad taste of my mouth. I never want to hear invalid complaints about Byleth again and what “personality” they show in Hopes was always in Houses because voice acting is the be all end all right?/s I do like their VAs though and glad they can show off how good Byleth is more.

YEAh exactly, i mean on one hand i'm glad it shows that the story without byleth as the hero just sucks lol it's like they're trying to confirm that 3houses was the better of the 2 situations. but also byleth always had this personality like you said.

Devs: we don’t want to replace Byleth. Devs: replaces Byleth with a worse version of them that reaps off Byleth’s benefits they never earn or deserve that still leads to bad ending anyway. WTF devs.

I KNOW RIGHT???? like i just played the paralogue where rhea gives doofus a freakin saint's relic????? and i'm like???? why do you trust this idiot????? byleth made sense. doofus does not

If anything it makes So//this truly a worst mom, as By//leth's worst moments are when she possess them. And Ar//val does that too in the "recruit demon" path. It feels sickening as that enables Egg//gord's 'gods sux' spiel.

sothis definitely got character assassinated in this game too. i'm wondering if it's something like, she remembers the past and that arval is an agarthan (just my speculation, but i mean come on. everything is pointing to arval being agarthan)

This game made me appreciate 3 Houses more than I already did. I need to rant a bit too; as a female Byleth fan I NEVER want to hear complaints about her design again when female Shez was welcome with her big boobs while having as much cleavage and skin showing. I already know it’s because she can talk because talking is the only way to have a personality/s. These past few months have made me so bitter.

i do feel like doofus got hypocritical praise from the byleth haters. it made me pretty bitter too. i still don't really like doofus but for additional reasons after playing the game

If you don’t recruit Byleth they disappear after killing Rodrigue/Randolph/Judith. No closure with Sothis hijacking their body. Even if you do recruit them, nothing but 2 Supports and a role so minor they may as well not even be there. Why the fuck are they even on the cover? The lords weren’t enough to sell this game?

I KNOW RIGHT??? putting byleth on the cover was such a money grab. even the first trailer made byleth look like a bigger character in the game

I hope you can handle this character assassination mess of a game. Now that no golden ending has been confirmed I might as buy it. I’m letting loose on SB villain route and everything burns.🔥 If I can’t have Byleth and their non-Edelgard relationships then fuck all of Fodlan.😈 I’m petty and don’t care anymore.

LOL i like how you think anon. not sure if i can handle SB yet but i might fly through it if i get bored some day. but on the topic of character assassination, i know claude probably got it the worst, but even dimitri and yuri have moments where i'm just like 'this isn't them :('

jumping on the "annoyed by shez" train, and this is just a personal opinion but shez is also just….. not as pretty as byleth hahaha i reeeally dislike the bright purple hair glued over one eye, and the color scheme just isn't as good…… it's the purple + orange combo for me ✌️😔 like if i have to have a central protagonist i at least want them to be aesthetically pleasing

yeah doofus really looks like they're from another game entirely.... they really don't fit in at all looks-wise

I read that interview that other anon was talking about and it’s so dumb. Byleth might as well not be in the game with how irrelevant they are. You kill them you a unit. You recruit them and they barely have any Supports. There’s an extra mission related to Arval for recruiting them that benefits Shez and that’s my problem, Shez. Whether they meant to or not Shez steals Byleth’s role and bonds; Arval too for Sothis. This game is telling me to forget Byleth and I don’t want to. It’s insulting.

it would have made more sense if they made byleth recruitable much sooner and have more supports. but it's almost like byleth was an afterthought. it's so strange and insulting like you said

I know you’re playing it for the laughs, but I’m watching playthroughs and all I can think is: Byleth got replaced, was hated on for months to prop up Shez, and becomes irrelevant to this shit story that goes nowhere while character assassinating everyone along the way? This game is false advertisement and glad I saved my money.

the cover of the game is REALLY REALLY false advertising. byleth barely plays much of a role at all, should not be on the cover that big. maybe in the background or something.

I’m watching all the AG cutscenes on YouTube. I fucking hate Shez. These should be Byleth moments. My Dimileth and Byleth/Lions friendship heart hurts.😭💔

doofus really does feel so out of place. like how did they become such friends with everyone when they spent like 2 weeks at the academy with everyone? as opposed to an entire year of protecting their lives and teaching them life skills like byleth did. it's feels so weird

artysgeekcassie-popping in one last time before my mental health break. 3 Hopes won’t erase 3 Houses, but I’ve seen enough leaks and can't pretend this doesn’t upset me. This games feels like an insult, especially to Byleth, Claude, and Rhea fans when IS/KT have made SO much fucking money for years off of 3 Houses. I just don’t know what they were thinking-THIS is really the best they can do? Fanfic is better. I know it’s a warriors game, but Persona5 Strikers didn’t leave me feeling like this.

i agree with everything you said, especially that fanfic is better LOL

It feels like they put Byleth and Sothis on the cover because Shez and Arval wouldn’t sell in their own. They straight up replaced them and assassinated their characters to make the other look 2 look good. That’s not even getting into the shit they pulled with Claude and Rhea.Only Edelgard and Shez fans can really enjoy this game. Dimitri fans might if they can accept him being a bit of pawn in bigger picture. The demo almost tricked me into getting the game. The leaks saved me money.

they wanted doofus to be so liked but like.... why?? why even make a new character?? they could have done better with doofus for sure. like not even just the marketing but as a character. they fall so flat it's almost funny

I REALLY WISHED FOR A FODLAN PREQUEL INSTEAD RN. I suggest you don't play the game at all, as Byleth ends up "killing" a teammate based on your route (hugs for recurringwriter). That's not even getting into Claude's blatant character assassination, why?! Byleth is playable, but is it worth it when they're in this dumpster fire??? This is just a bad parody fic at this point, I don't mind Shez but everything else like Mon//cia's "devotion", the Federation, Mik//lan working for Dimitri, can go…

i absolutely hate how monica turned into an ed;el simp. it's just so 🤮🤮🤮

a prequel of the hero's war would have been so much better

Same anon. I think what bothers me the most about people reaction to Shez is how everything they claim to hate Byleth for, Shez is the one who really does it. Being worshipped: everyone instantly accepts and praises Shez while Byleth was had skeptics and had to earn trust. Having the plot bend over for them: Alois doesn’t offer Shez to be a teacher despite their strength and no one questions their strange powers while Byleth had no choice and was dehumanized by some people. Again, frustrating.

EXACTLY

@nobilismare said: “ sometimes i realize one day i could die, i could just disappear and the world would be none the wiser. there’d be no one to miss me and that terrifies me more than death itself. ” (post ts ferdie to dimitri mayhaps?)

Poets say, someone dies twice. Once when they pass on from the land of the living, and again when they are forgotten, their name never again on the breath of someone’s lips.

Death was a funny thing, a fickle thing to be sure, but a funny one nevertheless. It was something that hardly made sense, something that took the lives of those who didn’t deserve it, sweeping them from the land of the living far too soon, far beyond their time. It was something that other’s evaded, clinging to life with every fiber of their being, trying desperately to live on as long as they possibly could. Death was unfair, unforgiving and cruel.

Death was something Dimitri was well acquainted with. Not only with himself personally, someone who’s evaded his own untimely demise time and time again, but with those around him. Those who had sacrificed themselves, or were seen as an example to be set, so that he could live on. If he were honest, even if he’d never admit it aloud, Dimitri hated it, loathed it even, for others to die for him, to deem that their lives were lesser than, or that his was worth more - it wasn’t fair. It made his heart hurt.

Regardless of his feelings, Dimitri understood what the other was saying, understood the ideals that he was attempting to portray. It wasn’t often the Prince found that he was invited to tea, to spend some time with those who had found themselves within his army. Not for lack of trying, mind you, no he’d wished to spend as much time with those around him as he could, but he didn’t find he had that much time, or that the others were really willing to. Which, was understandable given everything that’s happened.

Ferdinand, however, seemed to be one of the first to invite him out in such a manner. A fact that Dimitri found that he appreciated.

Dimitri hummed lowly, nodding as his gaze lowering to stare down at the surface of his tea, the way the liquid inside ripped with every minute movement, every breeze blown by the wind. No one was immune to the effects dying in oblivion has on the soul, it was terrifying, and understandable.

“It’s an unfortunate part of our reality,” He wanted to provide optimism, to prove some wisdom that would befit an up incoming king, but he found that he was falling a bit short in this instance. “Death is a common occurrence these days, I suppose it only truly matters what you do with the time you have. If you manage to do something worth remembering.”

“Even if you’re remembered by a select small few, you’re still being remembered nevertheless.” He hoped that was, at the very least, comforting.

#OH IM SO SORRY LIUGHALEGJAEIOJ #you hit a buzzer word for me and it's Dimitri + Death and HHH #so many emotions about this #god ferdie and dimitri deserved to have supports what is this #nobilismare #◣ 𝘈 𝘕𝘌𝘞 𝘈𝘋𝘋𝘐𝘛𝘐𝘖𝘕 𝘛𝘖 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘘𝘜𝘌𝘚𝘛 (𝘢𝘴𝘬)#𝙄 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙫𝙚 𝙖 𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙡𝙙 (𝘋𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘳𝘪 || 𝘐𝘊)#𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙚!

What are your thoughts on the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead? The good, the bad? What do you think about the upcoming tv adaptation?

Tell Us👁👄👁🍿

Ooooohhh bestie.

I started the series right after Shadow Kiss (book 3) came out. Found book 1 in Walmart and made my mom but it for me. Over a decade later and this series still has my soul in its clutches.

I adore the series in the way it was centered around Rose and Lissa and their friendship and love for each other and the problems that come with being each other's person.

And who is not a fan of the untouchable love interest with an accent? Dimitri is literally the reason I like men and influenced my type of guy. Am I married to a nonbinary person the complete opposite of Dimka? Absolutely. Changes nothing.

What I am not a fan of (like everyone else) is the age gap between Rose, Dimitri, and Adrian. I am 24 and I LITERALLY CAN NOT even think of finding a 17 year old attractive. Like yeah yeah different worlds and they have to grow up faster to be guardians but wowza. I re read the series this year and was appalled at some of what happened while Rose is underage (the cabin scene yes and jfc Dimitri she is your student and you're also her best friend's guardian c'mon). Adrian's character honestly rubbed me very wrong for the longest time. He gave off nice guy who needs therapy vibes. I haven't read the spin off with Sydney and Adrian so he could have redeemed himself. Idk.

Also hate how Rose treated Eddie. Like he honestly went above and beyond when he did not have to multiple times and she barely thanked him.

Lissa also not that appreciative of her friends.

Loved Jill.

Pour one out for our friend Mason.

Tatiana was that bitch.

Rip to Robert that crazy bitch deserved better.

I believe Tasha could have been either #1 Ally or and even better villain. Her being brought down to a woman scorned and having "her man" stolen by a teenager was literally the worst choice.

About the show: I'm interested. I like the cast for the most part except with Lissa. I love the representation but Lissa (and most royals) are Eastern European decent (hence the names and most being from/around Russia). I wonder if they'll just nix that or work with it. I do hope they age up Rose and co and lower Dimitri to like 22 or 21. Make it like a 2-3 year age gap and not 7 ffs.

I'm sure I have more but that's all I got currently at 3AM.

Tuesday, 6 June 2023

Yesterday I was very much charmed by the whole “Xander and Chloe kissing” thing but then they pull an Annie Wilkes-brand cockadoodie car moment in the recap where Chloe slaps Xander.

God damn it. I was finally coming around on you, Chloe. This is not helping you keep my interest (which should obviously be the top priority over there).

Xander does manage to charm his way to another kiss, this time without an accompanying slap. But then he pushes too far and tries to get her into the bedroom and she balks once again.

Which is okay by me! A tentative dance of seduction is still by far the best thing Chloe’s been involved with in over a year. (Well, except when her arch-nemesis turned out to be an 8 year old girl. But I don’t think we’re going to see any additional action on that front any time soon. And really, the girl was doing all of the lifting there.)

Back at I’m Running Out of Unique Ways to Describe the DiMera House Already, Gwen delivers on the promise of being in the same room as Dimitri.

Kristen introduces Gwen as an old friend, which then puts Gwen in the delightful position of having to explain how they know each other. There’s a lot of talk about kidnapping and blackmail that would have sounded implausible to me if this was my first day(s of our lives), but I was actually here for most of this and it was honestly all more ridiculous than Gwen’s quick recap made it sound.

Megan keeps shooting Dimitri significant looks and all but shoving him into Gwen so they can kiss, but he’s not getting it.

So they have a chat in this room, which I’m starting to think of as the Clarification Foyer.

“Come on, Dimitri. I want you to marry that girl. The audience figured this out yesterday. Try to keep up. You’re supposed to be an evil genius.”

At the police precinct, Talia has been released on bail thanks to the tireless efforts of Belle. I initially described Belle as “the only good lawyer in town” but we actually know a lot of lawyers in this cast and they all seem pretty good at what they do. Not to diminish Belle’s accomplishments in any way.

Talia then apologizes to Rafe — for poisoning the town (including him); for helping Colin do the awful shit that Colin did; for generally making her sister’s life difficult. Rafe replies with an “I appreciate the apology” which is a sensible reaction under the circumstances, I guess. But also Talia’s been crying or on the verge of crying for two weeks now… which is maybe… 3 hours of story time? I think? But still. She’s been through a lot and I just want everyone to be nice to her now.

Jada, meanwhile, is chasing down a lead in the form of Leo.

She gives him some (deserved) shit about running into Colin and not telling the cops about it, but then she opens up a little about Talia being in an abusive relationship. And Leo comes back with an actual human emotion that isn’t a joke about how gay he is! Turns out Leo was raised by some pretty abusive people himself, and he expresses genuine empathy for what Talia’s been through. I mean, he also says he’s going to put all of this in the paper, which is a little shitty.

But then he has a crisis of conscience as he’s writing the story and he actually decides against it!

Leo! You’re finally becoming an actual person instead of a tiresome collection of innuendos! This sort of thing is going to make those innuendos a lot easier to swallow going forward. And I do enjoy swallowing.

Belle returns home from a long day of lawyering to discover Sad Eyes Shawn drowning his sorrows in lots and lots of beer. His sorrows, in case you forgot, involve shooting his dad. Which he had no reason to do. I know we’re supposed to feel bad for Sad Eyes Shawn and maybe be concerned that he’s drinking some beer, but… I don’t and I’m not?

I do feel a little bad for Belle, though. She didn’t sign up for any of this. And didn’t you put her through enough with all that Jan Spears business last year?

Jada returns to the precinct and gives Talia one of the many hugs she desperately needs right now.

Then Talia returns home.

And discovers the stolen badge of Officer Skippy on the floor.

And rushes to the door to get out of there.

But she’s stopped by hands that are obviously attached to Colin but we’re not technically supposed to know that yet.

This storyline is starting to get a little too real for me. Can we go back to devil possession or gathering the pieces to a priceless peacock statue or something instead of this?

Please?

This is a question I've always wanted to ask: as someone who's on team Rhea, Dimitri and Claude, why do we continue to engage in a fight with the Edelstans? We know they're not going to listen to us and are going to keep pushing a false misconcieved narrative (esp Cap). Unless they actively harrass us via tumblr or whatever, should we just let them be and believe in their own ignorant fantasy?

Well, if you're asking me personally, I'll be honest and say that the original purpose of this blog was literally to have a place to rant and vent about my grievances with the fandom. The misconceptions and weird amount of hate surrounding Rhea - which are still very prevalent - the bad-faith takes about her, Dimitri, and Claude, the justifications made for Edelgard and the attempts of the overall fandom to try and make her out to be way less bad than she actually is - and the pushback brought on those who like, dare to publicly disagree with that notion - I just wanted a place to air out my increasing annoyance at the fandom's behavior.

But then at some point my posts got a bit more noticed, and I came across more and more people who were similarly unhappy with the state of the fandom. I've had a good few people - on and off anon - who've come to me and said that my posts and analysis and meta were all really appreciated by them. There's a lot of people who also don't like how the fandom is, and I found that many just like knowing that there are people who don't follow the bandwagons of "Rhea's actually the worst thing ever" or "Edelgard's the real hero of 3H" or "Everyone's at fault for the war happening."

Like, you know how many people still say stuff like "the game is so sad, but it's 'such a nice showcasing' of how not communicating with each other can lead to horrible things happening"? Who believe nothing would have happened if the three lords "just talked!!"? As if Edelgard would have listened to people she wants killed because they stand in the way of her dreams of "complete Imperial control of Fodlan"? Or that "who cares who's the worst of them, they're ALL war criminals!!" As if, say, Claude is anywhere near comparable to Edelgard in the war crimes they commit? There's a lot of people that don't like being told that these blatantly false or misleading ideas are what the game is totally saying is right, and seeing people publicly debunk these ideas can be pretty relieving, going from what the people who've come to me tell me.

Letting Edelstans live in their own ignorant fantasy would be completely fine, if that fantasy didn't ruin so many people's experiences with the game and if these people didn't constantly drag down people who don't agree with them. Like, to give an example for the former, I love reading fanfiction. Have been loving it since I was a wee teen. If I want to read stories about Rhea? I slap my hands together and pray that I can find something that doesn't shit all over her, and then be let down almost immediately, because the world of 3H fanfiction haaaaaaaates Rhea. So often she's made out to be a comically evil, non-nuanced villain who eats babies and punts orphans off of cliffs and deserves no love whatsoever. And would you look at that, a lot of that has to do with many of the misconceptions Edelstans parrot around like their lives depend on it. Rhea is a tyrant who controls all of Fodlan!! She doesn't care about humans!! She'd never give up power!! She'd never let reform happen!! The Church of Seiros is evil and must be taken down for the good of Fodlan!!

How does anyone think a fan of Rhea - you know, someone who knows that all of this isn't true at all - is going to like the fandom when this is the most popular interpretation of their fave (or someone they otherwise like a lot)? And it's become like this because the fantasy land Edelstans live in has more than bled over into the rest of the fandom. It's well-past the point of letting them be self-contained and do their own thing, because they themselves aren't keeping to themselves. They made their takes and meta so popular it's basically the default opinion to have in the fandom. They get mad about their behavior being particularly called out, meanwhile they get so many of their takes be accepted as True Canon.

So like, it's less me trying to "reform Edelstans," and more about me keeping this blog to be a place that debunks their shitty takes and meta, now for others to enjoy and find some relief with. You'll notice that I don't tend to directly respond to these people, mostly because I don't see much point to it. Even with Cap'n, I never talk to him directly, I don't barrage his fic with mean comments, I don't do anything except critique his fic in my own space. I'm more here to rant and vent - and now let others rant and vent - about what's annoying (sometimes even harmful) about the fandom. Hope that answers your question!

#ask #anon #exqueuese me princess #there's also the fact that discussing their takes has people on the outside realize how much of what they say just ain't true #like it's kinda unbelievable just HOW MUCH parts of the fandom take to be true comes from Edelstan takes that are riddled with inaccuracies #so pointing out those inaccuracies using the game's text and the developers' words help clear them up for others #to be clear though - I'm not dissing anyone who (respectfully) directly debate with anyone! I just personally don't do it often #and hope I wasn't too rude answering you nonnie!!

Now, I’m not saying that you do or do not have to do this but: may I ask about that Sylvain x reader x Felix x Dima HCs? SFW and nsfw? I feel like you’d get it. 😉

Man the toughest part about these poly and poly-adjacent asks is figuring out how this would even shake down without someone dying lol this is probably gonna have to be a tiny bit OOC by my standards. Anyway, let's chat~

[spicy hcs will be below the cut and tbh it's a lot lol]

Sylvain x Felix x Dimitri x AFAB Reader HCs

- As I'd said last time this came up, Sylvain is definitely the first person to catch on to what's going on here. Over a late night of talking through war relief and diplomatic policy, a quiet finally falls among the three of them. Clearly, a change of topic would be appreciated, but Sylvain chooses to go about this by saying, "Soo... Y/N, huh?" Which leads to the first time all three men manage to grasp and discuss the situation. They all care for you. They all want you. But how could they force you to make that choice?

- Frankly, you're shocked that this is the solution they've come to when they approach you about it. Surely it must only be the lifelong familiarity and friendship between them that would cause them to even consider "sharing" you. But of course, they're each gorgeous, each charming and sweet in their own idiosyncratic ways. Perhaps this could work...

- The best part of being (more or less amicably) pursued by all three gentlemen is how wildly different they are in personality and temperment. Sylvain is an expert of fun, lighthearted romance- surprising you with a kiss to the side of your neck and whispered words and a single plucked flower tucked behind your ear. Dimitri's approach is gentlemanly and traditional- kisses atop your hand, lingering stares over private tea dates, book recommendations and so on. And of course, Felix is as coarse and fiery as ever. He'll never say it outright, but his feelings for you are paradoxically the most evident. He's even a bit of a mother hen with you, scolding you when you don't take care of yourself, and initiating quite a bit of physical affection in private.

NSFW 18+

- For some time, all bedroom activities with the three stay fairly separate- and as different as their relationship styles are, their love-making styles are just as varied. Felix is passionate, intense, and if you can take it, quite rough. Dimitri does his best to be gentle with you, but it's clear that there's a fire in him that he keeps strictly in check. Sylvain's expertise is truly impressive, his smooth and effortless eroticism never failing to leave you trembling.

- It's his idea for the three to try pleasuring you together one night. He says with a smirk you "deserved a treat for putting up with us all the time." Dimitri is clearly interested, but reluctant due to his sense of propriety. Felix is the hardest to convince though- he already has to deal with Sylvain and the Boar more than he's like to for your sake, why should he have to share you in bed as well? But, the idea of trying it just once, just to see you absolutely shaken to your core with overwhelming pleasure, turns out to be motivation enough for all three in the end.

- They start by preparing you, Dimitri and Felix lying on either side of you and greedily caressing every inch of you they can reach. Dimitri eventually settles at your chest, gently kissing and nipping at your nipples and the surrounding flesh with an arm around your waist. Felix, meanwhile, is nestled against your neck, visibly marking you with his teeth as if in direct defiance of this whole arrangement. Then, Sylvain lowers his head between your thighs and puts that expert tongue to work. In no time, you're trembling and gasping between the three men, absolutely overstimulated but giddy beyond belief. It's almost too much to bear, but Felix's free arm wraps around your leg closer to him and lifts it, keeping you nice and spread open for Sylvain to work his magic until you're soaking wet and ready for all of them.

- Felix is the first to take you for real. He grumbles something about everyone wasting time and climbs atop you. The leg he'd been keeping in place for Sylvain now rests up against his shoulder, and he bucks into you with harsh, deep movements of his hips. He fucks into you as you lay on your side, and as he does, Dimitri kisses you sweetly and asks if you wouldn't terribly mind using your mouth for him, and even asks Sylvain if he doesn't mind having to wait a bit. The redhead is actually more than happy to kneel at the foot of the bed and enjoy the view, lazily stroking his own twitching cock as he watches you being ravaged by the other two men.

- You spend a good while getting steadily pounded by Felix's veined cock while struggling to take as much of Dimitri's rather large member into your mouth as possible. Sylvain jokingly remarks on how well everyone's getting along, but you can hardly process words in that moment. Your senses are overwhelmed by stimulus, by the masculine scent of your lovers, by deep, pleasured groans and your name in the air.

- When it's Dimitri's turn, you ride him, which he generally prefers. You're actually somewhat grateful that this time, you had Felix to rough you up a little and make you cum once or twice first, to prepare you for Dimitri's size. When you ease down onto his throbbing manhood, Sylvain positions himself behind you to fondle your body and periodically grind against your ass, all while Felix recovers for a moment. Sylvain's voice purrs in your ear, "Ah, our King is nice and big, isn't he. You're taking him so well, Y/N..." the blonde blushes a dark pink, but Sylvain is clearly enjoying the depravity of the situation immensely.

- At long last, with two down and one to go, Sylvain directs the other two to either side of you again, and finally takes you in the same position he went down on you in earlier- on your back, with your other two lovers at your sides. He's absolutely rock hard, having clearly enjoyed the show leading up to this moment. By now, your so over-full with your lovers' release that it acts as a lubricant, which Sylvain doesn't seem to mind in the slightest. Dimitri lines your cheek, your jawline, your neck, everywhere with kisses and gentle bites, while Felix's hand strays between your thighs to circle a single finger around your clit. This almost immediately pushes you over the edge, your eyes rolling back as you feel pleasure beyond what you thought possible. Certainly it wouldn't be with only one man.

- Having all filled you thoroughly, the three fall into a panting, satisfied afterglow with you. Felix is the first to get up to clean, but he does eventually return to check in on you. You're beyond exhausted- and all of them can obviously tell. You're not sure if you would be able to handle this becoming a regular occurrence, but... maybe every now and then.
