The mentally stable Dimitri Fire emblem 3 hopes.

It surprises me that there's still ppl claiming so, but then I remember we're talking about 3h interpretations and I have to make peace with it.

But that doesn't stop me from venting a little bit in this little space I have lol. Actually, it dries me and makes me feel bad to bring this up because I will have to talk bad about Dedue, and I don't want to talk Bad about Dedue. He's a genuinely good boy. But "Human" nonetheless, which means Flaws. I like Felix too but he's become some sort of a clown that doesn't make me feel too bad. I like Felix tho, In a different way.

Mostly talking about these two because the take that "Dimitri has better support system" baffles me because, technically, these two are his support system in HopesVerse. The persons who Dimitri relays on and seek solace/advice/support. The rest doesn't really tackle any of his personal struggles (aside from the Mage!Mitri frustrated dream, but that's out of the bad equation in our 'mentally unwell' set of pixels, and Shez only has a glimpse). Contrary, to Houses verse where the whole blue lions cast knew about his shit, didn't know what to do, but didn't leave either.

I tackled this topic with other person on Twitter who was (or still is) on board with this take and the phrase they used was They contained him better, which of course I agree and remarked that was exactly the problem. Contain him is gonna be contra productive. I used a water dam analogy, where the structure of such dam is damaged, and the pressure of water keeps accumulating. Causing a foreseeable damage for the dam itself and the surroundings. You don't need to be a genius to understand it, you need experience or knowledge for mental ill topics tho.

I really don't want to extend so much on here because it's mostly just, rant format more than a proper analysis so I just want to point out these two things in their support conversations.

First, Dedue. Encourage him to keep on the vengeful path. Which we know was the final goal of Azure Moon and if you payed attention to 3 houses message. The whole Vengeful argument was something Bad, to keep it simple. Despite Dimitri actively looking for answers/guidance for something that, in a rational state he can see clearly like vengeance will consume his life (also Shez and Felix called out this behavior). Dedue answer only encourage him to keep on that path, because he would do that 💔. Presenting 2 oposite views is a great formula for confusion and disorientation. Now, Dedue's role is primary SUPPORT, not guidance nor orientation. He will support his shit no matter what, and we are quite aware of that if played Houses.

Second, Felix. Felix is a special case. He is smart but also an idiot lacks A LOT of soft skills to actually be of help. He's the only one who knows in this verse about Dimitri having a mental issue. In their A support to say the least, so they don't close or solve anything. What makes it more worrisome is the fact that Felix conceals the issue as a secret.

"So try to keep that whole "removing their heads" thing in check, yeah? We can just call it our little secret."

this extract here makes me feel so unwell 😭help

The whole burden falls over him and his lack of skills and wisdom on the matter will be too much for him later on. He at least, will be able to recognize that the problem is beyond of his capabilities and will look for help. Felix himself has his own issues and journey where he needs to learn. He's forced to get pass beyond some of his angry teen behavior but hasn't completely get over it.

There is a lot more to tackle, but that requires more work and time. What are the topics some of you think is important to cover around understanding the Hopes verse resolution? Dimitri's route? something? Do you think the route without Byleth is better? With that being said, I would like to delve deeper into character analysis, and the role each played for the Lords too. That also requires to talk about the Byleth and needs a whole analysis on their own, which requires time (which i don't have much lol) To end this vent, I would like to encourage people to do a little research for the terminology they're using like "Support System". Who makes it up and how it operates successfully. The fact that ppl saying "he has better support system" only because he didn't go feral on the run alone is not entirely valid. A reminder that people can feel alone with or without people around them. And containing the issue within doesn't solve any problem. At best, it's presented later. At worse, it gets worse.

#dimitri alexandre blaiddyd #my lil blorbo with mental health issues #few3hopes #fire emblem warriors 3 hopes #Today I woke up and felt like venting #BUT Just to make myself clear #this has nothing to do with ships #you can ship whatever you want #You do you #Just in case someone has that feeling #This is an analysis from a mental health point of view #because it is one of the strong points of this character and with which many of us connect/relate #So I like to apply psychological and neurological (even psychiatric if necessary) perspectives #And I like to apply realistic theories to this fictional world because that is the good thing about three-dimensional characters #They feel so human that all these hypotheses can be applied #If some of you don't. That's cool too. You do you #Enjoy the game as you please lil fella #ALSO ALSO I'm taking into account what the intention of the developers was #(that would be tricky considering the inconsistency withing the developers' team >___>)

Okay, so I've read a couple of Revalink soulmate AU fics but I can never get through them because honestly I've never really liked the concept. And honestly, I feel like there's a decent chance Link would feel the same.

I mean, you've got a guy who didn't really get to choose almost anything about his life - he's a knight because his father was, he's Zelda's guard because he was selected by the King, he's the chosen hero because he's destined for it - and then he doesn't even get to choose who he falls in love with? And in most soulmate AUs probably has a literal physical mark on his body constantly reminding him of that fact? That's not romantic, that's existentially horrifying!

This idea might already be a thing but I've never really read fanfic before about a month ago when I got the Revalink brainrot so I don't know, but here's an idea I call the anti-soulmate AU.

Basically Revali doesn't have whatever soulmate-identifying mark exists in this story, and Link does, which is part of why Revali resents Link while Link is in some ways envious of Revali for the opposite reason. Somehow they end up actually talking to each other and grow close, and eventually Link basically decides "fuck it, I don't care that there's some destined perfect partner for me, I'm choosing to be with this guy." And even though they provably aren't soulmates and their relationship maybe isn't perfect, they still love each other and are happy together.

There can be some angst about Revali feeling insecure since there is someone out there who objectively would be a better partner for Link even though Link doesn't actually want to be with them, and about how this is basically depriving Link's soulmate of their perfect partner. Who that person is doesn't really matter, but making it Mipha would add even more to her whole "tragic one-sided pining" thing. Or it could just be some random person, like I said it's kinda unimportant.

Anyway the Calamity happens, and since Link kinda-sorta-dies whatever soulmate mark he has goes too and he's finally totally free from it. I have no idea if that's a thing that happens in these AUs, like I said I don't really read them much, but it kinda makes sense and fits this story so whatever. Maybe have Revali be revived after Ganon's defeated so there can be a happy ending.

Revalink as a concept is always just a little bit contrived. You have to mess with the timeline of the backstory if you want them to be a thing pre-calamity, you need to change how the Champion ghosts work to have them be a thing mid-game, or you need to have all the champions come back from the dead in order to have them be a thing post-canon, and you almost always need to mess with their personalities to have it be even slightly plausible. It's always kinda messy and doesn't totally make sense, and in this story that would basically be true in-universe and that's exactly why Link wants to be with him. He's pretty much the exact opposite of a perfect, destined partner who fits together with Link flawlessly.

Sorry for basically writing the entire synopsis of a fic that doesn't exist and probably isn't even that good of an idea, but as I mentioned I have the Revalink brainrot and I have no friends who I can send ideas like this to and I need to tell them to somebody.

so first of all, NEVER apologize to me for writing a whole fic synopsis in my askbox. my friend, are you familiar with my blog? all i do is write the longest fic rambles in the world here instead of writing full-fledged fic to upload to ao3 ☝️😭 so please do not even worry!!! i like ur fic idea a lot and it's good!!! and if you'd like, we can be friends and u can do what crow cryiling (affectionate) does and spam my inbox or messages w your ideas whenever you want 🤍 i luv to hear about revalink always

i honestly really love soulmate aus because i'm a hopeless romantic 😭🤍 SORRY but i do agree that to write a really good soulmate au for revalink, you can't just put any soulmate au template on them. like revali himself will actively break the fourth wall to fight against it because it just doesn't fit their dynamic; their whole relationship is built off of defying fate, re:your second-to-last paragraph. canon botw doesn't outline a clear path for revalink to ever be together in the way it might for zelda, mipha, or sidon even, so we'll always have to bend or break the rules of their universe for even a glimpse of future where they can be happy together 🥹 but it's the best part of their dynamic: they weren't supposed to be together, but goddamn it do they look good together.

i remember reading a fic where link and revali did have soulmate-identifying marks (i forgot what it was called but link's soul mark was revali's entire monologue in the revali's flap memory, and link hated him for it LMAO), but the idea that link would despise seeing the mark is so 🥺💔 i'm imagining maybe link was so excited to have one as a child, but after pulling the master sword and becoming a knight of hyrule, he now sees how he's doomed his soulmate to being tied to him and how he's responsible for their future or whatever. link has gotta develop some sort of altruistic complex about how he has to serve the people even at the cost of himself, i can't articulate it well right now, but i hope you get what i mean??? but that influences his resentment at the existence of the soulmark — not that he resents the person who is his actual soulmate, just the fact that he has one because he views himself as a burden on his soulmate as a result of his current position in life.

revali being born without a soul mark makes me so sad 😭 mixing this with my hc about him being orphaned, but revali getting bullied for not only not having parents but also not having a soulmate 💔💔 some of these rito kids are dickheads talking about "the goddesses wouldn't grant you even one person who would love you, haha!" and it definitely influences his workaholic tendencies training to become to most powerful warrior ever. he copes by saying he thinks soulmates are ridiculous and that there was no way there was another person in the world who could be perfect for you, that you should be given the ability to choose who you wanted to be with (but deep down, revali wants to know who the goddess would have chosen for him, if he did have a soulmate ㅠㅠ)

what do you think the conversation between link and revali would be like when they decide they want to be together, soulmates or not? what about the moment they fall for each other? who falls first? would it be mutual pining and trying to resist at first, because revali knows link has a soulmate who he deserves more than revali and link holding back because he knows what revali feels about the whole soulmate thing? or do they fall in love without holding back anyway, with link not caring for his soulmate at all like you mentioned? making mipha link's soulmate........ so tragic i feel bad for her fr if link resented her for being his soulmate kJDFKJD 😭 i lowkey wanna write these scenes tho idk HAHAHAH

the soul mark disappearing after link "dies" and is put in the shrine of resurrection is a really interesting idea though! like what's the mechanics behind that? i feel you'd have to go back and decide how the soulmate system works; is it a mysterious magic that no one can figure out? is it decided by some god of fate or love, hyrule's counterpart to aphrodite/eros? how did the magic decide that because link was "dead", he can't have a soulmate anymore/disconnected him from his soulmate? or what if link's soulmate died during the calamity before he was put in the shrine and soulmate-logic was like 'if your soulmate is dead, the mark disappears' so link's mark fades mid-battle and he doesn't realize it? and furthermore, link waking up in the shrine a century later and looks at his hand or some shit where the mark used to be and either (1) feeling a strange sense of melancholy at the empty spot on his skin or (2) looking at it but feeling nothing at all, and continuing with getting out of the shrine.

you could also explore how soulmate dynamics change throughout the hundred years he's gone. i'm sure plenty of people died during the calamity and lost their soulmates, so how does that alter the whole societal norms and culture surrounding soulmates? are people still born with soulmates after the calamity? do you think it becomes a taboo, that it's dangerous to meet your soulmate because what if you lose them? or do they see it as a mark of fortune, that love still prevails even in this near godless world after an era of tragedy? and then how does link interact with the world following his awakening, to find out that people have soulmates and look back at the empty, unmarred part of his skin and wonder, did he have one too? who were they? did he love them, and did they love him too?

AND ANOTHER THING, if mipha was his soulmate back then, does she still have her soul mark on her ghost?????? what if she did because well. it's her spirit and not her actual body, so when link meets her again post-waterblight, she's saddened by not only link's lack of memory of her but also the fact he's lost his soul mark. and also remembering that link would still probably resent her if he had his memory.

furthermore, there's two scenarios that instantly come to mind when i think about post-calamity revalink here. (1) revali seeing link post-windblight but link doesn't remember and revali having a similar reaction/feeling to mipha, but is having an internal conflict about whether or not he should be happy that link no longer has a soulmate he's bound to or sad that because of that, he'll never have another chance with link again because he's dead </3 or (2) champions are revived but link still doesn't remember his time with revali pre-calamity so revali is trying to give link an out and let him go to be given the chance to love someone else in his new life, but for whatever reason link is still drawn to him, moving to rito village and practically living in revali's shadow. it's another slow-burn of them falling in love all over again and maybe link gets his memories back?

if you ever plan on writing this, my friend....... feel free to send it to me because i'd Love to read it. like fr. there's so much potential for this one

#revalink #ask #exceedinglygayotter #anti-soulmate au #i'm still a shooter for a revalink soulmate au KJDHSKDF but it really does have to be well written for me to enjoy it #but the messing around with revalink is one of my favorite parts ab their dynamic i think #nothing is truly concrete about their characters in botw so there's a lot of creative liberty that can be taken #link can be whatever you want bc technically Us at the Players Are Link #and someone in my ao3 comments mentioned this but #because there's not a lot of revali's character to really draw from canonically there's not really an “OOC” version of revali?#like you can't prove that he's always a dickhead like that because he kinda has a one-dimensional personality in botw LOL #so as long as you stay near that facet and expand on it #you have free reign over both of their characters and the only limitation is the world you put them in #i'm just rambling now sorry i'm sleepy #but anyways i Do like this au and i would really love to see more of it <3 #sorry it was so late btw LMFAOKDJFH

Did Thor ever ask Jane to be his girlfriend? They only accepted because they liked each other?

yeah… him not saying things has always been the issue, hasn't it?! he never asks or tells her anything lol. he said it once here:

and she accepted by kissing him. after that, it's always been unspoken and understood. like, when he left her crying for 2 yrs (like you do), she had started looking for new people and went on a date even. but then when he came back, it's understood that they are now together:

he takes her to asgard without even telling her, let alone asking:

when she asks what to do abt the aether, he only says he'll take care of it and she need not worry (exactly how odin tells freya abt the skirmish). at the end of thor2, he only tells her that he's going back to asgard to talk to his father and will return. and when he comes back, it's once again unspoken that he's come to live with her.

we know he never voices his feelings and internalizes everything. w her, he tells and doesn't tell her things based on knowing that she trusts him. it's congruent with why he never said i love you because it was obvious to him.

#don't let this shitty fandom fool you #he's a well-written 3-dimensional character my dudes #before he was turned into a clown #answers #anonymous #thor #thor odinson #jane foster #thor x jane #marvel #thor the dark world

i am once again getting hit by the symbolism of the literal dimensional rift from stanford pines's portal machine also being symbolic of the rift growing in the pines family, and how both the rifts could only be closed once the pines family truly came together as a family

#rosie babbles #…so about those leo-stan parallels that hit me a while back-#rottmnt #gf #if i had a nickel for every time a guy sacrificed himself #to stop a junk-food-ass otherdimensional monster from ending the world and prolly conquering the rest of reality #and only be gotten back home safe via the stubbornness of his family #i'd have 3 nickels (leo stan and ford (his dimensional exile counts i think)) which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened thrice #meanwhile mikey stan and mabel can form the 'fucka you im keeping my WHOLE family' club #and ford and casey jr can have 'had to pull the trigger' solidarity #ough. the Brain Worms #i should not be allowed to make posts while emotional lmao the grammar lessons that got hammered into me keep slipping #tmnt

idk. i feel like theres some nuance to be had about preston & marcy long in a similar light. being annoyed by preston's presentation in the game is a perfectly fine thing in my book. another example of "i like this (character), but theyre not a good (character)". i do this with both preston and x6. you dont have to go into how preston is actually secretly a well written groundbreaking character to like him. its fine.

being discomforted by and not wanting to engage bethesda's horrible execution of characters of color & WOMAN characters of color specifically is like. a totally understandable perspective as well. marcy long in-game pisses me off and makes me sad because shes a piss poor characterization written by a bunch of white men who probably only thought "haha what if we made this person who survived a tragedy a total bitch haha wouldnt that be funny and edgy" when they decided on anything about her. it sucks and makes me feel bad.

#4 #txt #preston #marcy long #i need to finish my powerpoint on my media literacy 'big 3' because i think the preston debate is a good example of people conflicting #'why was this character made?' (interpretive questioning with space for anyone to answer with their own experience of the character)#& 'who was this character made by?' (pretty objective answer: white dudes who dont know shit about fuck)#(and also bethesda who is notorious for making 2 dimensional slabs of characters and writing it off because the point of the game isnt #to care about the world and the people in it)#and unfortunately i think people's interpretive experiences with preston completely overshadow the valid reasons people often dislike him.#those reasons being the 'who was this character made by/for' and being pushed away from him because of that

Oh yeah I watched the digimon children's/our war game movie tonight. and hoooooly shit that was the most harrowing and beautifully animated shit ive ever seen. the use of detaild lineless animation the bright colors and crazy visuals in the digital world reminding me of pmmm witch labyrinths.... and everyones just so full of life and expression and even the simple movements of izumi moving a computer down from a desk is just animated so well you can feel it. it was so fucking good.

#also i just finished watching digimon adventure all the way through beforehand. IT WAS GOOD #genuinely a very solidly written show outside of a few gripes. the characters are all very fleshed out and #3 dimensional and their growth is so satisfying to see. and also just in general something about #the anime and the way it handles emotions just feels so open and honest. the goodbyes in the final episode made me cry 3 times #also that one episode where taichi returns to the real world on his own is some of the most wonderfully surreal #sequences ever

Hi!!! I love your blog you've become my fav loa blog!!! 🖤 I have a question but do you believe it's possible to manifest a 'fictional place" like Hogwarts here? Since people can shift and experiences fictional places, why can't we bring them here?

Hey ^^

Thank you for your love. I truly appreciate it 💜

Well, aren't we limitless? I believe it's a possibility, it's just a matter of how much you believe (deep down) that it could get externalized in your 3D.

And the way it may get externalized will be so natural and interesting for you that you might sit down and say "that would have happened anyway"

We live in a society that has been fed so many limiting beliefs that people have become so afraid of thinking outside of the box.

Those who believe they receive!

We literally came up with a concept of a spaceship just bcs people wanted to go to space etc etc and many more, you can name them too.

The human brain was capable of coming up with that specific concept which then later on that concept which was in someone's 4D got externalized in the 3D and it doesn't matter the how

Isn't it "fiction" on its own too? Yes !

So don't be afraid of thinking outside of the box or thinking 4 dimensionally, rather than letting your human senses to trick you into thinking you "can't" do it

You have got this ♡

i like.... obviously am just tossing strickler & co. into shows that take place in the past because it's fun but i forgot that lost world is the specific brand of batshit that REALLY makes it work.

for example, lost world's plateau has an unseen city of avalon that is noted to be a place untouched by time and has some really mystical capabilities.

toa has camelot as a fucking floating castle surrounded by time travel.

#trollhunters tag #how did i forget about that #veronica is probably descended from like... king arthur or morgana or something honestly bc she's from the avalon line #(or ugh even merlin :') i cant live with myself imagining a world where merlin fucks tho)#and marguerite being from mordred's line & the note about there being some offspring of mixed lines means #she could be that too #i think the changeling gang would go to the plateau in the first place for SOMETHING related to morgana obvs -#trying to find a host for her or some artifact that would help release her #or maybe even just to find camelot if it really is just vibing there #but jfjjl;slkjj man lost world rly is just like 'oh vaguely popular thing in history and mythos??? our city now <3'#which makes it. a wildly perfect time to cross over with literally anything #ALSO the plateau has ~shifting realities~ and time travel altogether #which we didnt get a ton of because ~cliffhanger~ but the season 4 notes go off the rails #and it makes cross-dimensional stuff work too if u wanna go by the idea of them taking place in diff universes/timelines #but i do think all of the above & sanctuary all work as taking place within the same universe weirdly so im just.#man.

Closed opener for @modestmuses

Slider felt like garbage at the moment . As he pushed himself off the road, ignoring some glares and stares, he couldn't help but grimace. He'd been helping his friends try and defeat his now evil father, Hacker, when the man had caught him by the hoodie and dropped him into the wormhole after threatening his friends with his safety, the jerk.

Looking around, he brushed the dirt off his scraped up arms and knees, before catching his reflection in a puddle on the ground. His hair was pushed up at odd angles, his sweatshirt was ripped, and he had oil and dirt smeared across his face from when he'd been working on dismantling Hacker's machine. Great. He looked crazy. Rubbing at his face with his sleeve, Slider tried to clean himself up unsuccessfully before shaking his head. He could look presentable later. Right now, he should focus on figuring out where the hell he was.

Looking around he realized exactly how many people who looked... A lot stronger and bigger than him were looking at him and he decided he should probably first get off the street he randomly got thrown into. Throwing on his hood, Slider ducked into a nearby ally and made his way into the next street over where he paused, crouching again a building to catch his breath. Wrapping his arms around his knees as he brought them to his chest, Slider let out a frustrated sigh. He was lost, stuck in some random place with a lot of people who didn't look the friendliest, this was just great.

Taking another breath, Slider shook his head. Freaking out would get him nowhere. Standing up and trying to force as much confidence into himself as he could, Slider marched up to the first person who didn't look like they wanted to kill him and stopped abruptly in front of them. "Excuse me, sorry to interrupt but where the heck am I?" He asked with a serious frown.

#you can choose the muse >:3 #modestmuses #slider rp #rp #portal jumper dimensional traveling #cyberchase rp #i know nothing of this world so i hope this starter works!!! if not i can change stuff >:D

getting so emotionally wrapped up in this show rn it’s gonna kill me. I just want to sleep but I can’t stop thinking about the stupid ways I’ve gone wrong trying to manage people that I should not be expected to manage. If they paid me 100$/hr it would not be enough to be thinking about it this hard. And they don’t even pay me at all.

#this show being the one I’m working on. not a show I’m watching. to be clear.#nothing I watch could ever kill me because it is digital information and I am a 3 dimensional human being who does not live in the digital #world.#this show on the other hand. i have a meeting tomorrow with a guy to go over some issues. and tbh i might start crying. idek about what. but #it might happen. it’s not even officially tech week yet. but really truly I might burst into tears at any moment.

Types of side characters

1. Foil Characters: These side characters are designed to contrast with the main character, highlighting their qualities or flaws. Foil characters can provide a different perspective and challenge the main character's beliefs or actions.

2. Mentors or Guides: These side characters serve as mentors or guides to the main character, providing wisdom, guidance, and support. They often have more experience or knowledge in a specific area and help the main character navigate challenges or learn important lessons.

3. Comic Relief Characters: These side characters bring humor and levity to the story. They provide comedic relief during intense or serious moments and can help balance the overall tone of the narrative. Their wit, clumsiness, or unique personality traits make them enjoyable and entertaining.

4. Love Interests: Love interests are side characters who are romantically involved with the main character. They add a romantic subplot to the story and can contribute to the main character's personal growth and development. Love interests can be supportive, challenging, or even create conflict within the narrative.

5. Antagonists or Villains: Side characters can also take on the role of antagonists or villains. They oppose the main character's goals and create conflict and tension in the story. Antagonists can have their own motivations, complexities, and backstories, making them more than just one-dimensional obstacles.

6. Friends or Allies: These side characters are the main character's companions, friends, or allies. They provide emotional support, camaraderie, and assistance throughout the story. Friends or allies often share common goals and values, and their relationships can help showcase the main character's growth and strengths.

7. Family Members: Side characters who are family members of the main character can play significant roles in shaping their identity and backstory. They can provide emotional connections, conflict, and a sense of history within the narrative.

8. Background Characters: While not all side characters have to be highly developed, background characters help create a sense of realism and immersion in the story. They populate the world and add depth to the setting, even if they have minimal impact on the main plot.

9. Rivals or Competitors: These side characters compete with the main character, pushing them to improve, overcome obstacles, or achieve their goals. Rivals or competitors can be a source of conflict, motivation, and personal growth for the main character.

10. Witnesses or Observers: These side characters serve as witnesses or observers of the main events in the story. They may provide insights, commentary, or serve as a narrative device to convey information to the reader.
