thinking of a time travel au for fates gen 2, because deeprealms are a terrible way to get the kids. but the campaign chosen doesn't necessarily dictate the kids you get

so it's kind of like heirs of fate, where they come from two different world. thanks to a combination of Lilith, the orb that was entrusted to the Awakening trio, and the appropriate Corrin kids, they are able to travel back in tim

Hello, happened to come across your blog and I find your content appealing.

Anywho, I had an interesting question since I feel like you’d give an interesting answer.

If you were to send six of the second generation characters from Fates to the Three Houses universe (similar to how Inigo, Severa, and Owain were sent to the Fates universe), who would you send?

(For bonus content: why would you send them? Which houses would you have them join? Who do you think they’d get along with? Would you pick specific mothers for them? Any other headcannons about this scenario you’d like to share?)

Thank you for your compliments on my blog! It’s always fun to get questions like these.

Before I get to the answers, I just wanted to make a handful of quick disclaimers on my choices. The way I have it set up in terms of mothers/houses is completely disregarding things that seem more… canonical, if that makes sense? Like for example, I wouldn’t necessarily marry some of these characters’ Fates fathers to their Three Houses mothers in terms of chemistry. I tried to go for more based off of what suits the child’s and the mother’s personality. I tried do the same for the actual house choices, disregarding where the mothers would have come from and thus linked the child to. Hope that’s okay!

With that being said, though, here are my thoughts:

1. Shiro, child to Leonie, and the only child who I could not figure out a house for. He’s versatile.

I know it’s a stark contrast for Shiro to go from the son of a future crown prince of a rich country to someone as frugal and humble in origin as Leonie, but I think there are some personality bits there that link them nicely to each other. Their shared determination to win, their sense of both rivalry and respect for a figure in their life, and the older sibling attitude are all things that Shiro and Leonie share. It also may or may not have something to do with Shiro being my favourite Fates child and Leonie my favourite Three Houses girl, but I digress.

With a political situation as heavy as the one we see in Fodlan, I feel like Shiro’s superiority complex and feisty nature could make him both an asset and a liability. He’s a skilled warrior, but his overeagerness and inexperience with more thought-out plans often gets the best of him. He’s not yet ready to be the wise leader type, but in Fodlan he would still be living in a time where that is very much necessary — and that would put him in a position where he’d have to work to grow as a person and become more disciplined.

I’d be quite interested to see the sort of moral perspective that Shiro takes on the war, as when we meet him in Fates, he’s still very much unprepared for this. On the one hand, we could have him still take influence from Ryoma — “we sacrifice the lives of our enemies in order to preserve our way of life, but we must weigh this decision carefully” — or, we could play into the comment he makes about the lack of preparation he has for all of this. His decision on who or what to side with could be much flimsier, because we need to account for Shiro’s uncertainty in this situation. He’s not yet built for leading or for war, and I think that’s something that would be incredibly fun to toy with in Fodlan’s politically charged climate.

2. Nina, child to Hilda, member of the Black Eagles house.

If it were at all possible for Nina to be in this position, I think it would pay to really emphasize that I think we could see a lot of good development for her in this circumstance. A lot of people reduce her to her fujoshi shtick, but the morality she expresses in her paralogue is actually quite intriguing. I think I could see her having an appealing moral struggle, wanting to do whatever it takes to help the little people in Fodlan, while also questioning the means through which she is going to do so. I don’t know if I see her being entirely believing in Edelgard, but I almost feel like she might consider it — especially with someone like Niles as a father. Tearing down a structure of nobility would probably sound pretty good to someone like her.

I think I would want to send someone like Nina because she adds a layer of complexity to the situation at hand. She’s more likely to sympathize with the commoners, as I said, but she’d also be more likely to try and see how Edelgard’s rhetoric would actually help them. I see her very much as someone who would scrutinize all possibilities if she were ever to pick a side, and if she didn’t, then I could absolutely see her as someone using any power she had to help out those who are being crushed by the horrors of the war.

It is for this reason that I could see Nina as a Black Eagle. After all, they have the most moral struggle with either joining Edelgard on Crimson Flower or supporting Rhea in Silver Snow, so I think my uncertainty about Nina’s placement leads me to believe that she’s probably a good fit for a Black Eagle no matter where she would choose to align herself in the world of Three Houses. In terms of who she might get along with in that house, I could probably see her aligning herself closely to Dorothea and Bernadetta. She would most likely spend some time trading stories with Bernadetta, and would slowly end up growing a bit protective of the nervous girl. As for Dorothea, well, I just think their personalities would probably mesh well enough.

3. Shigure, child to Mercedes, member of the Blue Lions house.

Maybe it’s just because the Blue Lions route is supposed to be closest to the typical FE lord’s journey and Shigure is such a plot relevant character, but I cannot see Shigure being anything but a Blue Lion. While he might not be a child of Valla in this AU, it is likely that he may retain the understanding of the harm that these conflicts and war bring, so I could see him being an advocate for Dimitri’s interest in more democratic style of ruling. Furthermore, I think he’d also be a strong advocate for the people of Duscur, or perhaps only someone who believes that blind hatred isn’t the right path to take. Shigure is about peace and justice first and foremost, and he’s not unwilling to sacrifice to get it, so I think it just makes the most sense for him to be on the Blue Lions path. Plus, if we’re talking in terms of just actual sense in sending them... as I said, Shigure’s kind of got a thing about blind hatred being bad (considering, you know, Azura being his mom). It would be great for people in Fodlan to see more of that kind of attitude, to help foster stronger relationships between countries instead of whatever weird imperialism is going on.

In terms of selected mothers, admittedly, I might have chosen Mercedes because she, in some part, reminds me of Azura. Her sort of gentle, soft demeanour reminds me a bit of Azura, so I could see the also gentle Shigure making a reasonable son for her to have. Furthermore, Mercedes is also known to have her snippier moments from time to time with characters like Lorenz, and Shigure shares those as well, so it’s kind of like an “apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” concept to me.

As for who I think he’d get along with... well, I dunno if I can actually tell you anyone specific. I think he’d get along with most of the Lions, but perhaps Dedue and Annette in particular. I think Annette’s cheerful but hardworking attitude is somewhat reminiscent of Kana, and I think the equal parts of quiet-and-gentle that come from Dedue would make them fast friends indeed. They’d definitely garden together. Otherwise, I think he probably wouldn’t get along with Sylvain or Felix. He’s a fairly tolerant guy, but someone with so little respect for women and the other with so little respect for others in general would probably rub him quite the wrong way. Those two could easily earn themselves a curt dismissal on his part.

4. Sophie, child to Ingrid, member of the Blue Lions house.

With the culture of chivalry that Sophie seems to believe in, I hope it’s not too far of a stretch to see how Sophie would be a Blue Lion and the daughter of Ingrid. I could see Ingrid probably training Sophie to be a knight from a young age, similar to how Silas did, and Sophie responding to the situation with total glee. As a knight, I think she would concern herself greatly with serving and protecting the people in Fodlan, and would do her best to act on her moral compass as much as possible.

While for some of the children I think of their political positions in relation to the ones in 3H are more dubious, I think Sophie is probably pretty Azure Moon-based. She’s not the type of person who would be willing to do a “greater good” conquest, and I think her father’s neutrality in all routes suggests that Sophie herself is likely to be less concerned with Golden Deer matters. I’m honestly not even sure how recruitable she’d be. I think she’d be possible for Silver Snow or Verdant Wind, but... I think Crimson Flower is probably a no. She is incredibly steadfast in her values, and if she feels she is hurting people she is supposed to be protecting, then I don’t see her budging on that. For her, it’s just a lot of going where she’s needed and doing her best to help the people there, even if she’s probably going to stumble over herself along the way. She’s still Sophie, after all.

In terms of people she’d get along with, other than Ingrid, I could see Sophie being friends with Annette, Mercedes, and probably Flayn. She also might look up to someone like Catherine. With someone so accident-prone but still cheerful, it makes sense to me that Sophie would probably pick out people that match that energy. Flayn, Annette, and Mercedes are all capable of handling her as she is, and I think Catherine would be more than happy to have her trailing behind, even if she does make a mess of things sometimes.

5. Forrest, child to Dorothea, member of the Black Eagles house.

Finding where I want to place Forrest is... hard. His mother and his house came to me easily, but in terms of actual moral alignments? Yeah, I’m a bit stuck there. I could see him living in almost a Charlotte-like situation, wanting to get into sewing clothes as he does in Fates in an effort to help give his mother something to fall back on. After all, Dorothea’s lived much of her life in fear that she will not be able to marry rich and thus have nothing after her youth fades. I could see Forrest wanting to open a tailor shop both to pursue his passion, and to support his beloved mother. I think they’d have an adorable mother-son relationship, but that’s probably not the only answer you’re looking for.

I think Forrest fits in best with the Black Eagles because I think he could go either way on CF/SS a bit like Nina. I do not see him caring much for Hubert, being a bit exasperated by Caspar (but still liking his energy), being acquaintances with Linhardt... and probably enjoying the company of Ferdinand to some capacity. As for the women, I think he and Edelgard might like each other, but definitely be a bit at odds. Forrest, like Leo, has his particularities, but so does Edie, so I think they might lock horns a bit. That being said, I can see a bit of a fondness forming for Petra and Bernadetta, who really are just very sweet girls who want to do their best. Definitely would include a support conversation about him making a dress for Bernie so she can feel beautiful, and maybe one with Petra teaching him about Brigid fashion and making her clothes so she can feel more at home.

My ultimate difficulty with his morality placement is just because he is a member of the nobility as Leo’s son and, as he exists in his canon, has lived a somewhat sheltered life. I think he would want to make an effort to understand others, but does that mean believing what Edelgard tells him? I’m not sure if it would be like him to swallow what she’s saying to him without actually investigating it himself. If he were available on CF, I could definitely see it as more of a cautious suspicion attendance. Sort of like how a lot of the characters on CF actually don’t sound so sure that they made the right choice (Linhardt literally gives “I dunno, it would be work to fight you” as his reasoning, so I feel like anything goes). All in all, he’s pretty hard to place, but you could argue that this is part of the fun!

6. Ophelia, child to Marianne, member of the Golden Deer house.

Okay. Hear me out. I know Marianne doesn’t seem like the most likely mother of a child like Ophelia, but think about it: Marianne, a noble with blood that seems cursed, who has always had a hard time believing in herself and her worth as a person because of it? And her sweet daughter, Ophelia, who loves her mother to pieces and wants her to know just how great she really is? Just saying, that’s super cute. Ophelia’s energy matches up very nicely against Marianne’s shyness, and I just know Marianne told her all kinds of stories growing up and fostered that wonderful imagination of hers. I could see them having a very warm relationship, where Ophelia thinks the world of her mother and Marianne doesn’t know what she did to deserve a daughter so special. Just adorable all around.

The natural eccentricity that Ophelia exudes makes me feel like she would make an excellent member of the Golden Deer house. While it’s not comparable to the suffering people face based on background, she knows what it’s like to feel like an outsider just because you don’t think or act like everyone else. She’d naturally want different groups of people to learn how to understand each other and get along, so I think following Claude’s dream of breaking down the invisible barriers between people would really appeal to her. Overall, I think Ophelia is a good choice just because of that bright spirit of hers. She’s down to do anything that will help others because she sees herself as Ophelia Dark, Legendary Heroine. She’s going to do what she believes is right and look out for the people who need her, which is something that’s very important in Fodlan’s political climate, I’d say.

In terms of who she’d respond most to, I could actually see her maybe being friends with Ignatz and Raphael. I think she’d model a lot of paintings for Ignatz, or maybe give him inspiration through her grandiose fantasies. They’d probably have a lot of fun hanging out together and telling stories, and Ophelia’s high energy against Ignatz’s gentleness just matches well. As for Raphael, I think it’s a similar thing — positive attitude plus positive attitude. I could see them enjoying plenty of feasts together. Otherwise, she might also enjoy the company of Leonie — if only because she makes up a lot of stories about the future of Leonie Pinelli, Blade Breaker Two, the Greatest Mercenary in All of Fodlan. It might make Leonie a bit embarrassed, but it’s the thought that counts, and she’d definitely recognize that Ophelia’s only looking to be friendly.

In conclusion...

The six children of Fates I would send to the Three Houses universe are Shiro/Shinonome, Nina/Éponine, Shigure, Forrest/Foleo, and Ophelia. Definitely a bit of an unbalanced Hoshido vs. Nohr thing there, but I feel like these are the kids that would probably fit in the best. After all, would be kind of funny if in addition to Fates, we had to do more of the game hopping thing with Cordelia, Gaius, and Tharja again.

I hope my answer was satisfactory, and thanks again for asking the question!
