Happy @telliusbigbang day! I had the pleasure of partnering with @_indighost for their fic (https://archiveofourown.org/works/54144091/chapters/137091400)+ @ammubotto as my fellow artist. Ike and Soren get new outfits for their journey, along with some new faces who you should read to learn about ☺️

There's something about finding your way back to the person you love most that makes every journey a beautiful one, even if it takes place centuries later in your next life.

I enjoyed working on this project so much but I still felt like doing more so keep an eye out for more updates as the story continues, I will be posting some more as well.

I think everything you said RE: Grima and violence and age is why I'm one of those who prefers the reincarnation angle: it allows at least ONE Grima to wrestle some amount of agency over his own future away from everyone else.

Robin wholeheartedly rejects the future of being violent and evil and hurting people by existing. He chooses to live among people. It strikes me this can only happen in a timeline Grima sent himself back in, because what allows Robin to grab that agency is the memory from Grima: the memory of killing Chrom, which to me implies INTENSE REGRET for that to linger from Grima's going backwards in time.

I'm really glad you like that breakdown! I think a lot of the preference for possession vs incarnation can come down to what tropes each individual enjoys most, and for me personally, there's a lot of narrative appeal to the possession angle.

A big things for me is how it paints Validar, honestly. Sombron may be far, far more monstrous in the grand scheme of things, but there is something so intimately heinous to me about Validar looking at his newborn child and seeing not the endless possibilities that might await that new life, but a meat puppet, made to be drained of potential and filled with the will of an ancient god. He says himself that he's willing to bring Robin to the brink of death, specifically because it won't matter how he broke them after Grima claims their vessel. It says so much about his character.

One of my favorite things about it is the idea of a dragon suddenly finding themselves in a human body, and how they would adjust. I love the image of the striking change in body language: Grima's dragon form doesn't have lips, so their old body gaped its jaws when it wanted to smile, and this translates in expressions that are too wide and unnerving in a human body; little gestures also become more exaggerated, like head tilts when confused or examining something, because the dragon had a long neck with a much larger range of motion that's just not possible on a human body (though the instinct to try is still there).

(Also, I do have a soft spot for the horror aspect of Robin's friends and family seeing that figure and recognizing them...until they move, or speak, and realizing in an instant that something is Wrong, because that's not how Robin walks, that's not how Robin sounds, so who is that?? I love that so much, it's so fun to play with.)

But while it's certainly true that the reincarnation aspect is very poignant, personally I think that the possession angle has equal potential for emotional resonance -- just maybe in a different way.

So, fair warning, this is a lot of personal speculation and headcanon, but at this point it's baked into a lot of my writing so there's no getting away from it.

It starts with Grima being sealed by Naga and the First Exalt. I think it's fairly reasonable to say they were pretty pissed about this fact. But also...there really wasn't anything they could do anymore, at that point. They could rage and fume all they wanted, but they no longer had a connection to the world. Maybe they could watch, somehow, from a distance, or through a veil, but the world was out of reach. For a thousand years -- a substantial chunk of time even for a dragon -- they were disconnected from everything.

And then, very suddenly, and seemingly out of nowhere, they feel something.

Because Robin has been born bearing the Heart of Grima.

For the first time in a millennium, Grima has a connection to the world through this newborn babe. They can feel through Robin's senses, hear through Robin's ears, see through Robin's eyes. The world looks different from this perspective, rather than seeing it all from above, and though Grima has no direct influence over anything, they soak it in all the same, because it's different and it's new and no matter how they might deny it, they want this.

And so Grima gets to see Robin grow up. Secreted away from Plegia by their mother, Grima is first-hand witness to Robin's upbringing, able to see the shape that the world molds them into. And perhaps they find themselves growing attached to this child, who is told from a young age that they were born with a gift, a blessing, in the form of their Brand...and who chooses to safeguard it. Robin does not hate their connection to Grima and try to disavow it, nor do they flaunt it and use that blessing as an excuse to exert their will over others: they hide it from the world, yes, but only to prevent it from falling into hands that would use it for evil.

Grima knew what it was to be both revered and reviled in equal measure by mankind. But Robin's connection is different. There is no reward for protecting that secret, but they do so regardless. They love Grima, in a way that the Fell Dragon doesn't recognize.

Grima finds themselves returning that love in whatever way they can. They lend power when Robin is in need, fueling the Ignis skill that saves their life on more than one occasion. They listen sympathetically to Robin's thoughts, and perhaps offer advice in the bad times (though Robin never recognizes it as anything more than their own worst impulses). They come to care for the human that was made to be their vessel, and want for them all the things they could never have for themselves.

But they see, too, that the world has not changed that much in the thousand years they've been dead. Humans are still cruel and callous, still dishonest and dogmatic, still killing one another over less than nothing. Grima sees everything they loathed about the world remains just the way it was...and then sees Robin live through it, choosing to fight only when they have to, choosing to be kind even when they shouldn't. And Grima can't hate Robin, as much as they might want to. They've come to care too much for that.

Eventually Robin falls in with the Shepherds, and maybe things aren't easy, but they're better. Robin starts to open up They make friends. They're happy -- really happy, not just putting on a front. And Grima is happy for them, glad to see them finally getting the good things they deserve in life, and vicariously enjoying it all through that connection they share.

...but then everything goes wrong.

Then there comes a war with Plegia.

Then there comes the Dragon's Table.

Then there comes an insidious presence, forcing Robin to act in ways they never would.

And their dearest friend dies at their own hand.

Robin is bereft. Robin despairs.

And in that bleak, terrible moment, Grima reaches out to them, and promises them the power to make the man responsible pay. To make him suffer, as he has made Robin suffer.

Robin is grieving. Robin isn't thinking.

And just once, Robin gives in to their worst impulses. Because in that moment, more than anything in the world, they want revenge against the man who made them murder their closest friend.

And Grima takes control of their vessel, and smites Validar off the face of the earth on Robin's behalf. Plegia is already dead because of Validar, her entire population wiped out by his Grimleal Cult to raise the dragon's body; Grima turns the sea of corpses to Risen, and sets them on the monsters who saw this atrocity through.

That's all it takes. One moment of weakness. One mistake, made in a moment of despair. It's not until later that they both realize that this cannot be undone: that Grima's soul, now bound within Robin's body, can't be removed; that Robin's soul, nudged aside but held tight to keep it from being disembodied, can't resume control of their own body without both of them expending incredible effort. The Risen, now unleashed, cannot be controlled, and once the last of the Grimleal Cult are dead they spread inexorably across the land.

And so Lucina's timeline comes to ruin -- all because Robin loved Chrom, and Grima loved Robin.

But, of course, that's not the end of the story. Because Lucina, in an effort to change fate, petitions Naga and returns to the past with the other Shepherds' children, escaping their dying world to prevent catastrophe. And Grima follows her into the past...not to assure their resurrection, but to prevent it.

They know from the outset that they are choosing death. But this time, it is their choice. To preserve a world that Robin loved, and to give Robin a chance at a happy life, Grima goes back to help Lucina change the past, entering Validar's fold to unmake his designs where they can, minimize the potential damage where they can't.

And this time, love doesn't end in tragedy.

Desiderium - Official Post

This one is... special. For those of you who don't already know, Fire Emblem Three Houses was the fandom I started out in, almost 4 years ago - with Hubert/Ferdinand (Ferdibert), to be exact. Real life got busy and I stopped writing 3 years ago. Of course, I picked up my gay Twilight/LnD rewrite and world, and started posting last year.

Two weeks ago, I was cleaning out my Google Drive and noticed a huge folder of all these Ferdibert (+Edelthea) ideas that I'd outlined, and I thought that I might finish those if the inspiration struck.

So here I am. Having returned to Ferdibert with this new mini-series "Another World". It'll have six fics to it by the end - a trio each for Hubert/Ferdinand and Edelgard/Dorothea alike, 900 words per fic.

Title: Desiderium (Part 1 of 6, Another World - Ferdibert 1 of 3)

Author: Mizuka

Rating: Mature (no smut in this entry)

Category: M/M

Word Count: 900 words

Summary: A complicated thread of fate binds Hubert and Ferdinand, leaving them with thoughts of another future.

Notes: This contains canonical MCD, as this fic is canon-compliant and follows Claude's route... however, it isn't quite traditional. Reincarnation is a major component of this series (hence the series name "Another World"). As such, while the fic has real MCD and a sad ending, it also has a notably bittersweet and hopeful tone. The overall series does have an unambiguously happy ending.

Due to a lack of storage space and time in recent days, I've resorted to using Aggie for digital doodles. I've been a casual fan of Oshi no Ko and my mind kept scrambling to make an AU. And finally, I have an idea that could work! This was meant to be a mere sketch, but I ended up getting really invested and added shading and some semblance of a background.

I thought that the 2 versions of Byleth could be the twins with Sitri in Ai's role. I wanted to keep the personalities somewhat similar to what was shown in FE3H and 3 Hopes, but use the general story beats from the anime and manga. I'm only on episode 4 but I like reading spoilers on the wiki, so... I know some things.

#Nyans a drawing into existence #Fire Emblem Three Houses #Byleth Eisner #Oshi no Ko AU #I'm thinking of keeping the reincarnation shenanigans or at least involving Sothis with that. #I wonder if anyone can guess how the reincarnation version of the scenario would work~

If I had a nickel for every time I fell in love with a ship involving someone with the powers of a dragon god and potential immortality that might make them out live their boyfriend whose a king covering all their trauma with a perfect Prince Charming exterior, I’d have two nickles, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

I have the opposite problem of many people where my brain seems to be wired specifically to be repulsed by digital gacha (specifically digital, physical gacha machines get me lmao), because they bore me out of my mind so bad that the longest I’ve ever lasted playing a gacha game was maybe 2 weeks??

this isn’t normally a problem bc I sure do enjoy not becoming a victim of predatory gacha mechanics, except in this one specific case where I am attempting so hard to play nier reincarnation for the Lore, but I have lasted all of 5 days and haven’t touched it since, and now I’m just never gonna know what kind of tragic stories yoko taro wanted to shove into my brain

#the one single time I've ever spent money on a gacha game was fire emblem heroes where I bought some orbs #and then was like hm. that was an utter waste of like $10 so I'll never do that again #found out that nier reincarnation is canon to the nier timeline and I was like oh shit I have to know the lore #but I cannot slog through

[findroleplay]

Hello! ♡ I'm lilpipskee, I'm 22 looking for 20+ year old roleplay partners, I do sexual and non sexual roleplays, if we do sexual roleplays I do like to have good plots, I do M×M and M×F.

I can definitely do cc × cc or oc × cc

Here are some animes I can totally roleplay really good with!

Animes :

Tokyo Revengers , Twisted Wonderland , Demon Slayer , Fire Force , Boku No Hero , Yarichin Bitch Club , Genshin Impact , Soul Eater , Alice Country Of Hearts , Danganronpa (AU's) , Fire Emblem (Any and all games) , Owari No Seraph , Haikyuu , Pokemon , Hazbin Hotel , Durarara!!! , That time I got Reacarnated as a Slime, Rising of the Shield Hero, Tokyo Ghoul(Rarely)

I can also do ship roleplays, so any ships you might want to roleplay, I can totally do that!

One rule is, I always write in third person!

also I am looking for someone who can do more than 6+ lines, I won't go all out and be like you need to do more, because a lot of people can't, I don't want text talk unless our roleplay characters are texting, and no One liners, I can't do that it doesn't make it fun.

I'm not too picky on needing AMAZING english, because I am not good with english myself, since it's a second learned language when I moved to America.

But I do have a couple sites I use to roleplay, you can DM if you're interested and we can talk more about that! 💕

thinking about how id piece together how magic works in hyrule. into the tags it goes

#like im not gonna go in deptj and build a massivr magic system i am simply not interested enough and its not important enough #but its like. most people have access to some level of magic and each race has a specific kind they specialize in #not as in theyre naturally attuned to it more that they have the right circumstances and items and shit #and dark magic doesn not equal evil and light magic does not equal good #also the hylian royal family dont have goddess blood or w/e they are just natural light magic users #and the female members of the family are the only ones able to use it really well with little practice/in a pinch #yadda yadda hylia died when reincarnating or w/e as sksw zelda so she technically didnt have goddess blood #just like. some fragmenta of hylias being that persisted to get to her to do her plan #im trying to get rid of the hylian royals having literal goddess blood while semi sticking to canon dw abt it #i think its interesting if they just lie about it. strong enough light magic users can just use a bow of light its not unique to royalty #anyways most people can only harness up to two different magic types or one type really powerfully #some people dont haven enough innate ability to harness a specific type but have enough to interact with magically-infused items (link) #light powers and healing powers are connects but count as two different types if that makes sense #and dark powers have a subset where… its fire emblem nosferatu. but its rare and hard to harness and can be dangerous to the user #magic types can be passed through family lines if powerful enough but its not guaranteed and ppl can still choose what they commit to #everyone has one or two they are naturally inclined towards but w/ enough practice can excel at whatever they want #its just easier to tap into those innate magics and it tends to be based on the persons personality and ideals #in general high tension situations or situations up against an opposite/strong vs magic type can unconsciously power up someones magic #people with very low innate magic ability can practice to be attuned to one or two types and use it well but it requires a lot of practice #people also have different thresholds of how much magic they can use and how strong that magic is (mana pool kinda) #you can use a LOT of spells but not be able to handle strong ones or can only use a handful but can use very strong ones #that can also be changed with training #its basically like. people start with some predestined abilities and stuff but can choose to do whatever #ofc different ruling systems and stuff have different opinions and rules on what magic can be used and by who #the hylian kingdom is most restrictive while the gerudo embrace magic- the sheikah embrace it the zora embrace it the rito are meh on it #this is the ganonbeck au. btw. magic system isnt uniform across my aus #salty talks
