For years. He has seen them. following him wherever he went. It was something Dimitri was good with to keep to himself for nearly five years of his life. He had his own small slip-ups here and there. Only very few saw his true struggle with the weight of his own mind.

It was not easy, but it was much easier when he was younger. He kept his mouth shut when seeing the bodies of the dead standing in the distance. even standing in his own dorm while he tried to sleep.

Dimitri could feel their presence.

those eyes staring at him.

Lighting a candle to look at who was there, gripping it tightly as he bit his cheek to cease himself from the shriek he wanted to do.

but no. he held it in.

this was his punishment for surviving, after all.

Now... for five years — no. further than that.

Nearly ten years now after the tragedy.

it has gotten worse.

Years have passed since the school days. war has broken out, things are in chaos. all in such a short amount of time. the young prince was no longer good at keeping up any longer, trying to ignore their presence.

Speaking back to the dead.

Looking at them.

Noticing.

Reacting.

Even while others were around at times. Mostly Dedue, however. He saw the full descend into his own madness this entire time. Even so, he always brought him back out. Even for a little while — Dedue was always there even at his darkest of times.

He knew him best — since he was there by his side the day Dimitri saved his life.

- - -

Restless nights were finally getting to him. Dimitri barely eats, drinks and sleeps. Standing in the same spot staring at the rubble left of what was left of the cathedral.

Truthfully, many feared to speak up over it.

"Do something about it." Felix muttered under his breath watching from the distance. Yet... nothing could be done.

Even their dear professor Byleth couldn't do a thing as much as he tried. No one could break through Dimitri's struggled state.

That was, until one night while everyone was asleep in their old rooms from five years ago.

Except for two that stayed in the same area.

Dimitri stayed in the same spot as usual, barely able to stay focused. Dedue took it upon him to at last speak up.

"You should rest, Your Highness."

Dimitri slowly turned his head, hearing his voice. Finally, there are some actual signs of consciousness from the blond.

"I'd rather not. I have to stay awake." Dimitri replied, turning his head back towards the rubble once more.

"Why not sleep on the bench? It's not the best of places, but it'll do for now."

Dimitri slowly glanced at the benches. Remembering when there were many who would sit there and pray daily. Now, it was practically empty. Some were even broken now.

He was exhausted. Dimitri knew it was inevitable at this rate — he was practically stumbling over just standing. Dedue helped him towards the closest bench, sitting him down. Watching the blond lay down on his side.

It wasn't a bed, nor that much room at all. But it beat sleeping on the ground.

"I'll be here if you need me."

Dimitri couldn't refuse. He was too tired to argue. So, he only nodded and drifted off.

For awhile, it was nice to finally sleep at last. He barely could these days of torment. Though, it was over quickly before he knew it.

A sudden feeling of something — someone — grabbing his ankle jerked him awake. Dimitri immediately woke up, looking straight at a figure staring at him.

Inches from his face — dead, cold eyes staring back.

Dimitri sat up, kicking his foot to get the hand off his ankle. His panic set in as familiar faces from his past were looming over him. Hands reaching over towards him, begging for help.

Rolling off the bench, he made his way back to the rubble once more, his back pressed against it as he looked at the benches. Dimitri trembled as his focus was fixated on the figures.

Knights with arrows pierced through their heads. swords and spears sticking out of some of them. some on the ground crawling towards him with their arms reaching out, then the worst... those he called family staring at him with those eyes.

Those eyes. those judging eyes staring without even blinking. soulless. cold. dead.

Suddenly a hand was placed on Dimitri's shoulder. gasping, Dimitri's attention snapped towards the hand — only meeting Dedue's concerned look.

Dimitri let out a shaking breath, "Can't you see them, Dedue?"

Dedue looked out to the benches — nothing was there. His glance narrowed back to Dimitri.

"No... I don't."

Dimitri clenched his jaw, staring at the dead, looking back at him. Slowly, his hand gripped Dedue's arm.

He held back a sob, showing weakness.

"... You're real, right?"

Dedue was almost taken back by such a comment. nodding, he sat beside Dimitri.

"I am real, Your Highness. I am right here."

Dimitri's head slowly turns to the other. focusing on him only. trying to reel back to what was real. Deep down, he knew they weren't real — but his guilt and dread made it difficult to realize.

it was hard for him to see what was real and what wasn't during moments of panic and weakness.

"I'm sorry, Dedue. I can't sleep." Dimitri shook his head tiredly, "Not there... I can't over there. They are over there."

"Then rest here. Wherever you feel most safe." As Dedue replied, he sat down more comfortably. He wasn't going to leave Dimitri's side. especially not now during his clear struggle.

"But—" Dimitri paused, feeling the wave of exhaustion almost slam his down completely. again, he just couldn't fight back.

How would he bring justice to the dead this exhausted? They had to agree on this once. he couldn't fight it either way.

Dimitri lowered his head, closing his eyes as he sat beside the other. Slowly drifting off again and slumping against Dedue's shoulder.

This time, he felt almost... safer to get a good night's rest. even if he could still feel their scornful eyes upon him every moment.

Weed Eater

Written for the FE Flash Fic Friday on Dreamwidth

Prompt: MLM Ships

Title: Weed Eater

Ship: Dedue/Dimitri

Fandom: Fire Emblem Three Houses

Word Count: 1,432

Rating: T

Tags: Alternate Universe - Gardenverse, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Blue Lions Route

There was a type of folk considered fey amongst the people of Duscur. Not spoken of often because it was so unusual, even they considered the talk of the Flower Eaters to be but a poorly remembered myth. This, too, was a legacy that Dedue embodied, too, for better or for worse. It was considered as unlucky as it was beautiful.

He still remembered the confusion and the elation, when he was a young child. Still small and innocent and naive to the ways of the world and he expressed his love with how any child would: with wild flowers freshly picked.

“Mama, Mama, look what I can do!” he had cried out, happy and joyous with a big smile on his face. He was what? Four?

The look of fondness on his Mother’s face turned in an instant as Dedue showed her what was in his hands and it was not a trick of light. As he uncurled his fingers, the flowers that he unveiled were not from the garden but from him.

“Dedue, my love, you must never show this talent of yours to anyone, understand?” his Mother warned him as she accepted the little, yellow flowers Dedue had produced from his palm. “And you must always avoid anyone who would want to eat them.”

That was even unluckier. To be a Flower Eater. That was a curse far greater and heavier than the one which Dedue had upon him as a Flower Grower - or Florist, as he would come to hear amongst the mainland of Fódland. Turns out they were in tune with different bits and pieces of Duscur lore, filtered through inaccuracies. A long, long tale which had changed every time it had been spoken between two people.

Much like a school rumour, actually.

Deduce did his best, at the Officers Academy, to be as detached as possible but people talked. Even to him. Though he did his best to not talk back.

He minded his own business. He kept to himself, to the greenhouse, and no one was none the wiser to Dedue’s status as a Florist. People knew he had a green thumb but no one suspected that there was something more to his talent and gift with plants was nothing more than the innate knack that certain gardeners had.

No one except Dimitri and Dedue had his own suspicions about what exactly Dimitri was.

More than a friend, a house leader, a lord or a prince. There was a great darkness inside of him as well but Dimitri did his best to obscure it underneath a well-controlled and amiable persona. This extended far and wide to being close and personal.

However, Dedue didn’t want to talk about Duscur traditions or lore with Dimitri. Though, sometimes Dimitri would pry about innocuous things. Food, fashion, geography. The most surface level things so he could try and be close with him but Dedue was ever a brick wall.

Though a watchful one.

Maybe he was channelling his Mother, her spirit and her memory, too much but he saw the signs. Dimitri was exactly the type of person she used to warn him about. The Flower Eater. No Fódland name for it, as far as Dedue had heard, anyway.

They were characterised as the tragics, the obsessives, the ones who were always hungry for… something. Be it flesh or… be it flowers.

Dimitri was exactly that person and a little quip that he let slip confirmed it in Dedue’s mind. To anyone else it would have been funny but Dimitri wanted to eat the weeds. They had been assigned to gardening related tasks, like pulling weeds, by Professor Byleth to help.

And it only worsened from there, Dedue would observe from Dimitri’s side.

He was a very different person.

To everyone bar Dedue.

He had always sensed that one day Dimitri would snap. That he was hungry in a way that civil society could not provide as it went beyond a need for food but for vengeance. For blood and flesh and… flowers.

After everything that had happened. Edelgard’s assault on the Academy. His separation from Dimitri and the allies that he had amongst his Blue Lion classmates, Dedue shuddered with recollection. There was still much to be done, such as restoring the Holy Kingdom, clearing the name of the Duscur people, and more.

“I’m … I’m happy to know you are still alive, Dedue,” Dimitri grovelled to him. “And that you are real.”

“Yes, I’m real.” Dedue replied.

He let Dimitri touch him. To confirm his warmth, his heartbeat, his breath.

Though much of Dimitri’s sanity appeared to have returned to him as he got catharsis from facing Edelgard or returning to tutelage in Professor Byleth’s stead, and yes, of course, Dedue’s return to his side as vassal. There was still more to be regained, if it could at all, and an underlying fragility despite Dimitri’s present calm and serenity.

There was still more that Dedue could do for Dimitri.

He waited until an appropriate time. He had never disclosed this to anyone. His family had known but no one else knew. So, Dedue waited for a calm, blue night when the moon was big and full and the purest white. He invited Dimitri for a late night walk to the gardens. Just them and their companionship. Nothing more, nothing less.

Standing by the gazebo with his hands behind his back, gazing out over the lawn, “Can I tell you a secret?” Dedue asked.

He was finally ready to open up. He watched as Dimitri visibly perked up and for a moment, Dedue saw a flash of Dimitri’s seventeen year old self in the world weary and one-eyed face that he now bore. It made Dedue’s heart falter but he steeled himself.

If he was correct, if Dimitri was a Flower Eater like he thought, then his Mother’s wisdom was too far gone on him. Dedue had doomed himself the minute he pledged allegiance to Dimitri in gratitude for saving him.

“Please, go ahead.” Dimitri told him.

“I want you to know this.” Dedue said.

As he had grown older, it had become less easy to hide his condition. As a child, it was a painless magic trick, like a sleight of hand, to produce these flowers from his body but as he went through adolescence, that was part of his body which changed. He had to shave them off like he would the whiskers on his chin, sometimes it would even hurt when these pretty, dainty little yellow flowers would bloom.

Dimitri watched, mutedly amazed, as Dedue showed him this legacy of Duscur, too.

They lived in a world, amongst people, who conjure lightning and fire, control the winds, and yet this simple little thing elicited such oddness and mystery. It was strange.

Dimitri caressed the petal of the flower, he followed the natural arc of it with his finger. It was soft, he noted. All whilst Dedue told him bits and pieces from his Mother’s fairy tales. How his siblings used to be jealous of him because he had a gift that they did not and that was unfair.

Dimitri listened intently.

“I had no idea that such people existed.” Dimitri said, quietly awed. “I must be quite fortunate to have you by my side then.”

“Yes, about that…” Dedue murmured.

He plucked the flower and his fingers reacted as though he had given himself a paper cut. There was a thin line of red on his palm, like a scratch, and an involuntary twitch amongst his fingers. He offered it to Dimitri but when Dimitri tried to accept it with his hands, Dedue glared. He kept going. He offered to feed it to Dimitri and Dimitri, confused, did open his mouth.

Dimitri chewed thoughtfully. Dedue had never once wondered what the flowers he produced would taste like. He had never seriously thought that he would encounter a counterpart to his own condition but Dimitri’s expression.

“I like the taste of it.” Dimitri whispered. His lips quivered, like he was holding back an involuntary smile. Colour, ever so slightly, was added to his cheeks, too, that he could not interfere with.

Dedue blinked. He was actually taken aback to hear that considering… Dimitri was not known to be an auteur of taste or otherwise a gourmand. But it did flatter him to hear so. Even if it did affirm in Dedue’s mind that Dimitri was as every bit as tragic and obsessive and hungry as Dedue was promised when he was warned of as a child.

Dedue making Dimitri a flower crown!!!!

Dimitri turned the gift over in his hands, marveling at the way Dedue had convinced the strange flowers to hold their shape-- that of a crown Dimitri was apparently meant to wear.

"They are the first flowers from Duscur I have been able to grow in the greenhouse," Dedue explained, voice softening as he added, "I thought this might be a better way to enjoy them, rather than stuffing them away in a vase in my dorm."

Seeing Dedue's mouth form a slight frown, Dimitri placed the crown on his head before Dedue could attempt to take back the offer, saying, "I would be honored to wear them, thank you."

Alfred looks like Dimitri, but acts like Raphael. Honestly, it's fate he'll be shipped with someone like Dedue.

DON'T GIVE ME HOPE ANON D O N O T GIVE ME HOPE!

Also idc if I already came up with like 40 Dimidue fankids Alfred and Celine are now Dimidue fankids as well. Dedue instilled a love of flowers in them. It's precious.

your fave hapistance headcanon??

Okay, okay, okay, so I don't know if I wanna say it's my FAVORITE, but it's one of the most relevant to my lesbian monkey brain right now because I just rehashed this with my best friend (I made her rewatch them again lol).

I think that Constance and Hapi would get married with all the traditional fanfare and they would do that thing where the married couple smashes cake in each other's faces instead of just feeding it to the other politely.

Specifically, Hapi resists the urge to smack Constance in the face with cake because she knows that it can throw Constance off-guard (via their C support) but Constance uses that opportunity to immediately catch HAPI off-guard by smashing cake in Hapi's face first, all while bursting into this obnoxious giggle that descends into one of her famous unhinged laughs. And Hapi doesn't care because she smacks her right back. (Lovingly, with cake, of course. That’s her wife. <3)

Balthus thinks this means it's fair game both to dig into the cake himself and to do this to anyone and lobs cake directly at Yuri, who ducks because he's got that sweet, sweet speed stat. It hits Dimitri directly in the face. (He's in attendance because he was invited by Hapi.) Dedue spends the next few minutes trying to flush cake frosting out of Dimitri's eye during the reception. (He was Dimitri's plus one to the wedding.)

Thanks for asking! Feel free to take...whatever the hell this is and do what you will with it.

Send me some asks.

My dimidue + marignatz farmhouse in Sims 3

I have a Sims file with lots of FE3H sims made, and I decided to reflect the eventual endgame for my YouTuber AU by making Marianne and Ignatz a sweet farmhouse where Dimitri and Dedue will live with them and eventually raise kids! I wanted to make my own so I could give Dedue a nice kitchen, so Marianne could have room for her horse, and so Ignatz could have his own art studio! I’ll also be adding more of Ignatz’s paintings to the walls, but that will have to wait til they’ve saved up enough and moved in.

Some exterior shots of the house first!

This will be a VERY long post so cut here lol

A big garden for Dedue, of course!!

And the back. Plenty of room for Dorte to run around!

Dimitri and Dedue’s room! Dimitri pretty much just let Dedue decorate it how he wanted lol

Marianne and Ignatz’s room!

Upstairs bathrooom, aka the main one (for all the adults at least)

And now we go downstairs. Starting with the living room, which I’m honestly really happy with!

Dining room, not much here unfortunately but whatever it works ig

Downstairs bathroom #1, for the kids!

I didn’t even take a pic of the guest bath downstairs, it’s really not exciting lol

Anyway! The kitchen!!!

I wanted to make sure Dedue had a nice view while he cooked!

oh I guess I did take a pic of the guest bath lol it’s right next to the laundry area and the pantry, tho not accessible from either of those places.

And the pantry that I spent way too long on XDD

And finally, Ignatz’s studio!

Some of the CC stacks a little funky so I couldn’t have it all spaced out quiiiite how I wanted it even with moveobject on, but I think I’m more or less happy with it. Might rearrange it so that his easel is facing out the back window, but whatever lol

I do have some bedroom space allocated for the kids too, but I haven’t done anything with that bc we’re def not there yet lol but there should be room for two (small) kids’ bedrooms.

headcanon: post-timeskip, thanks to having his nose broken a few times, dimitri snores like a buzzsaw. dedue doesn't mind; in fact he finds it comforting -- he can half-wake-up from a nightmare and know dimitri's safe without having to get up and check

Chapter 8 of Scarlet Blaze

Spoilers for up to Ch 8 beneath the cut. This chapter fucking sucked.

Also, I know I tagged this as SB, but be warned this was pretty critical of it. If anyone is actually still browsing tag and thinks I should remove it, I will.

STORY

Hell, yeah, Dimitri was taking names.

This plot is . . . kinda stupid. I feel like Edelgard is just running back and forth the whole time, accomplishing nothing.

LAMO, Omg, she just straight-up blamed all the deaths from the previous battle on . . . Claude 😂

Edelgard really be like "Why did Claude make me hit him!"

I'm pretty sure the writers didn't intend for SB to read like a Monty Python skit, but Edelgard has less self-awareness than Sir Lancelot when he kept apologizing for slaughtering the wedding party because at least that he was aware enough to apologize.

Oh, Randolph. So how many times does he die this time?

So, like, does Shez want people to get executed if they flip sides? He's like, geeze, how dare Claude and Dimitri forgive people.

Shez is like "I don't understand a word you say Edelgard, but I'm helping you slaughter your way across Fodlan because you may rub off on me!" More "SB is a comedy in disguise" fuel.

I wish I picked F!Shez for every route. I like her VA a lot more. Plus, I've seen this personality on a male character in the countless number of shonen anime and manga I've watched/read, but not as much in a woman. And unlike M!Byleth who's gorgeous, M!Shez is alright, but not super hot or anything.

So Lindhart mentioned that the Kingdom and Alliance can rally against the Empire because of the relics and crests. And like, I don't see how killing Rhea will make that power vanish and people not desperately want it. I feel like so much of Edelgard's spiel is an edgelord's power fantasy with no basis in reality.

This soldier is like "Dimitri labeled everyone who sided with his uncle as guilty in the tragedy of Duscur!" Lamo. Except it's true. Would've been interesting if it wasn't and see how Dimitri handled that. I sometimes wish he got more grey situations bc the writing in Hopes so far he's just . . . the good guy. Like straight-up the hero, no questions. Which, I love because at heart that's what Dimitri is, but I wish the writing would corner him anyways.

Oh, fuck. It's Sylvain. Oh fuck. I don't want to fight him. That sucked.

Count Rowe is being a backstabbing moron. I love how it's always the evil ones that side with Edelgard. It's an underrated thing no one talks about.

And now I have to fight Rodrigue :( Feels bad, killing Blue Lions+ members for the crime of defending themselves.

Ok. It's an unquestionable fact that when you find yourself fighting Annette, you are the villain. This is just truth.

Pretty sure this is heading to a temporary truce between Claude and Edelgard. Which, Claude's (and the Alliance's) funeral, I guess, lamo.

SHEZ & PETRA B SUPPORT

Petra's asking Shez about mercenaries. Questions if Shez would work for the enemy if they offered more money. Aww, damn. You don't have an option to say yes. :(

At least it's somewhat based in trust on their employer (and to get future ones) and not just mindless fangasming. I wouldn't want that in GW or AG either.

DOROTHEA & HUBERT B SUPPORT

This is their only support.

Hubert has a letter from the opera company and wanted to talk to Dorothea, so he's giving it to her in person.

Ohhh, he's bringing up how Dorothea hates violence, but stays and fights in the war rather than returning to the opera.

Glad this is finally getting addressed. Letting Dorothea talk.

It's part wanting to fight alongside her friends and part wanting to represent commoners in Edelgard's army. But also to score a rich husband.

Honestly, much better than whatever the fuck their Houses final support was.

HUBERT & FERDINAND B SUPPORT

So other popular ships got amped up (Dimilix, Dimidue, Marihilda - strangely not Sylvix though). So did the gay get turned up here?

Ferdinand is up late and Hubert wonders why. Ferdinand is studying the law to try and get his father arrested.

Oh, Ferdinand brought up the fact Hubert's father died. Putting Hubert to the question about executing his own father and mad he didn't judge his father in public

Hubert argues that his father would never have been found guilty.

God, that was SOOOOO much meatier than "I wanna serve Edelgard the best!" "No I wanna!!!!"

Monica took over the "pathetic Edelgard simp" to Hubert's "competent Edelgard simp" so Ferdinand could finally fucking get to run.

Ferdinand so far is 10000% the best part of SB (I'd say Petra competes, but I like her better in AG so far).

SHEZ & FERDINAND B SUPPORT

Shez thinks Ferdinand is faking enthusiasm. Not like that. Lamo. He's just overcompensating for his father's failure.

Ferdinand feels powerless and useless. I wish he was the MC.

Shez just wants to help Ferdinand feel better.

Ferdinand wants to surpass his father.

It's a repeat of his stuff with Edelgard and Hubert, but it's by far the most compelling part of SB.

PETRA & HUBERT B SUPPORT

Hubert is checking on Petra to make sure she feels comfortable and temps her with staying in the Empire, but Petra's like "naw."

Worth noting that Brigid is still under the thumb of the Empire. So Petra's a hostage basically forced into this war in order to secure the freedom of her country.

And they can't even go public yet, fearing the citizens get pissed off. Man, the Empire must be full of bloodthirsty land grabbers.

Go Petra! She low-key threatens Hubert and forces them to uphold their promises. Nice seeing her have a backbone.

PETRA & FERDINAND B SUPPORT

Ferdinand sung to Petra to ask her to spar. It's really cringe. Like, realllllly cringe. I would've been embarrassed if I wasn't playing alone.

He thinks this is some Brigid custom, but song and dance is only involved with religious ceremonies. Petra calls him out for finding her country so silly.

It's a mistranslation

Petra owned Ferdinand in this support and we are here for it.

FERDINAND & LYSITHEA C SUPPORT

Talking tea. Can relate.

Lysithea was ready to eat the food and bail. Nice.

But Ferdinand wanted to ask her about joining the commoner class. Lysithea insists she's fine with it and wants to.

Ferdinand doesn't know any de-nobled nobles who are happy. Lysithea know he only knows ones who got kicked out, he's not wrong.

Then he's like, you can't join them! Then you can't change anything anymore. But like what is he fighting on Edelgard's side for?

She, of course, doesn't have a future.

MONICA & BERNIE PARALOGUE

Bernie's enjoying her socially isolated life when Monica needs her help with something because there's no one else around.

You can have Shez agree she shouldn't come, and he says he'll slow them down, lamo. Bernie is offended.

They need to rid bandits out of a cave.

So his Duke is part of it. And he's had problems finding the Fetters of Dromini because of a TWSITD spy. It's also related to whoever kidnapped Monica.

So all I get is Shez, Monica, and Bernie. Only Shez has even looked at a battlefield and the other two are level 1 an 2. I can make 1 an adjunct, but not both. Ugh. Gotta go level at least one up.

Oh, hey, Myson.

I forgot how good of a unit Shez is lol.

Seems like Bernie actually has a decent mom. Bernie just wants to hide in the caves though. Monica advises against it.

DOROTHEA & MANUELA PARALOGUE

This one is easier since they're both leveled up already.

Everyone is fangirling over them. Dorothea assures Manuela that time hasn't tarnished her beauty, but she doesn't buy it.

They wanted Shez as a bodyguard because he's not a crazed fan. I wish real life celebrities would just whip out daggers on ridiculous fans.

This one's more entertaining than the last one. Random thieves are fans and if you defeat them with whoever they're a fan of (Dorothea or Manuela) they join you, lamo. Good both of them are already leveled up too.

Aww, Hanneman showed up to rescue Manuela.

The bandits were swarming the town because of the war. It's nice to see more acknowledgement of how Edelgard's war is screwing over the common folk.

Glad to see Hanneman get a nice little shout out despite getting demoted to NPC. Dorothea and Shez basically told them to get a room, lamo.

STORY/MAIN FIGHT

Edelgard is the least effective conquer I've seen in fiction.

"Defeat Dimitri" - How about, no.

I see "persuade Mercedes." Does that mean I need to bring Jeritza? Because it's not like Hubert or Edelgard are masters of persuasion.

"Defeat Dedue." I hate this. Monica's like, "If Dedue's here, then Dimitri is too." Even SB ships them.

Haha, they flipped sides to Dimitri after he was like "I don't want to kill you, please fight for me instead." And like, no shit?

Aw, shit. Now I have to fight Dimitri.

Oh, now I get to fight Ingrid too. Guys, I'm having so much fun right now. It doesn't help at all that SB is boring as fuck.

Oh, shit. Fuck. What the fuck. Ingrid just died. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Oh shut the fuck up, Edelgard. "Oh, this is so painful." IDK maybe stop trying to conquer everyone who doesn't kiss your ass. You too, Monica. "Oh, she was loyal to the end."

I'm beginning to remember why I hated Edelgard so much in CF. She's such a self-righteous idiot incapable of taking responsibility for her shitty actions AND has no sense of self-awareness.

Dimitri and Dedue sound so sad 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Dedue and Dimitri both taking the credit, meanwhile prissy ass is like "oh, wow, so sad these people died. No idea why."

Shit, Dimitri just mentioned Glenn. He sounds so broken up. Glad Dedue is giving Ingrid the credit for her own choices and actions.

She died defending everyone she loved.

I bet Edelgard will find a way to blame Rhea for Ingrid's death rather than take any responsibility for all the death she causes.

Only Dorothea fucking cares about Ingrid.

"We are nowhere near achieving our goals in the Alliance or in the Kingdom." - Edelgard. I can't fucking understand how some people argue she's isn't an Imperialist.

At least she's admitting she's fucking stupid with her army leadership inabilities.

I'd tell Edelgard to go fuck herself, but that implies a level of pleasure she doesn't deserve. #JusticeforIngrid #StoptheImperalists

Okay I still haven’t finished thropes but!!

Dimidue Thoughts

in throuses post ts Dimitri basically has nothing left to lose, and so I don’t really picture him hesitating much over his relationship with Dedue. He’s the one who comes up and says “you’re irreplaceable, cherished” and he’s the one who’s always urging Dedue closer than Dedue is prepared to be

Dedue meanwhile is reasonably quite hesitant about their relationship because his people are still despised by Faerghans and he knows it wouldn’t be safe for him or for Dimitri (or fair to his people) for them to get together. He’s worried about hurting Dimitri and he’s worried about being a class traitor and he’s worried that he’d marry this whiteboy and somehow ruin his people’s chances of ever being an independent country again

Meanwhile THREE HOPES SPOILERS

Dimitri is fighting desperately to hold his country together: he has so much to lose, and it would be so easy to lose it. We see him repeatedly acting counter to his own beliefs, or concealing his true feelings, because he’s worried about how they would be received by his people. This is a Dimitri who is terrified of rocking the boat, and even with the altered situation in Duscur there’s no way marrying Dedue wouldn’t rock some boats

So it now falls to Dedue to be the person reaching out in their supports, and he does it!!!! The situation with Duscur is better: the land has been given back to the people, there are Duscur forces fighting with us in the war, their names have been cleared well enough that Dedue feels comfortable openly associating with Dimitri now. He offers to bring Dimitri comfort, and he even offers to go to bed with him in both his B and A support

So in a lot of ways their dynamic has sort of flipped? Instead of Dimitri being like “please, I’m begging you, at least let me call you my friend”, Dedue is just quietly there supporting him, offering him more any time he’s interested in taking it

Hi! This is Blackacre438 from youtube dusting off a tumblr account I haven't used since 2014. Holy moly. If you're still at all interested in talking about 3 Houses (and it's ok if you aren't), you had mentioned a long while ago that among the supports you most wanted to see in 3H that didn't already exist was Dimitri and Ferdinand. Given you're a Ferdibert shipper and an enjoyer of the Fargheus Polycule, how well do you think Ferdinand would fit into the Homosocial knight culture of Fargheus?

Hey there. I do have a ton of FE16 headcanons and miscellaneous content on here if you search that tag going back to 2019-21, but after that point I did mostly run out of new things to say about the game (and started my YouTube channel, which took away a lot of my attention) so it largely dropped off. These days I don't keep tabs on all that much apart from the never-ending discourse, because there are still somehow prolific trolls in the fandom even now. But even so -

Under more serious readings of his character, Ferdinand would likely take well to Faerghus's homosocial knight culture if he had the chance to get adjusted to it. With that said, I pretty much never go for sedate Ferdinand (or Ferdibert) readings these days because the melodramatic, kinky dark comedy route is vastly more entertaining. I've long entertained the headcanon that, even in an AM AU where Hubert survives because Ferdinand advocated for sparing his life, the two of them would not work well in the polycule. Hubert would be as vindictive and evil as ever, and Ferdinand would almost certainly be more interested in his lover than in fooling around with a bunch of guys who to a man aren't kinky enough for his tastes (Sylvain, maybe, and Yuri if we're counting him...the others, not so much).

I can also easily see Adrestians in general looking down on Faerghus's culture of knighthood, including the distinctly martial flavor of homoeroticism that coexists alongside heterosexual marriage - a take on male sexual relationships present in several real-world premodern cultures. If Ferdinand and Hubert are campy theatre gays in a superficially high-culture Empire, they'd likely consider rather primitive a country where the men are all bound together in eroticized brotherhood and yearning to die in each other's arms on the battlefield. And on the flip side, I don't think the Faerghus boys* would really understand Ferdinand's perspective on things like camp or the gender-as-performance appeal of drag - an interest I infer from some lines in his Manuela supports. It goes without saying that they wouldn't get his certified villainfucker tendencies, either, even if a postgame Hubert would be expected to remain on his best behavior (he absolutely isn't).

To go even sillier however, several of us in this corner of the fandom have the headcanon that Dimitri is mostly a bottom because his Blaiddyd-boosted strength would literally kill most partners who try to take his dick. Ferdinand von "huge hole" Aegir would take that in particular as a challenge.

*Dedue is, as always, the wild card here, because he's not actually from Faerghus. I know I've written in the past about how Dimidue stands out from the other Lions M/M pairings in its dynamic and the presentation of their ending, which sees them cohabitate and apparently never marry anyone else. This not only lends itself to a reading of them adopting children and forming a semi-monogamous family unit, but it also speaks to how Dedue is disruptive (in a good way!) to the pre-Tragedy status quo of the Blue Lions. It gives Dimitri and Dedue's relationship a very different texture from that of Dimilix and Sylvix while also giving it more dramatic layers than Ashedue on account of the bits of Faerghus's knighthood culture that Dedue does pick up on (ref: his Gilbert supports, his resolve to take revenge for Dimitri in VW). And as I ship all four of those pairings in some form or another, more variety is great for allowing them to feel distinct while also coexisting peacefully.

That said, I think Dedue would find Ferdinand's penchant for theatrics bizarre if not actually obnoxious, and he absolutely wouldn't trust anyone so enamored of a man like Hubert.
