Golden Wildfire - Chapter 11 - Chapter 12
Motherfuckers
Really, the only thing to note from camp is that Lorenz comments that Almyan ships are more advanced than Foldan ones.
Oh, and Linhardt is actually against the invasion but it still along for the ride
Sreng is fucking attacking. Damn you, Claude.
Felix is going to intercept him.... dear god, does he die?
Rodrigue will 100% die though.
Felix appears in a side map. Defending is land... :(
At least we aren’t allowed to plunder the freaking land, cause Nader really wanted to.
Guess we are taking a fortress first instead of the city.
We can persuade Ashe this chapter?! Damn, harsh.
Lol, I accidently failed my first time. You retreat if you fail to protect the engineers.
WAIT NO THEY LIVE.
BUT INSTEAD, SYLVAIN’S FATHER COMES IN TO COVER THEIR RETREAT AND DIES INSTEAD
NOOOOOOO
Hilda “Woohoo!” Here we go, this is SB level shit right here.
Oh fuck, here we go. Claude is about to complain about the Kingdom’s values.
It didn’t occur to you until NOW that people were going to fucking die in your invasion?!
“We will create a world where these sacrifices will no longer be necessary. People will be able to live as they please.” BITCH YOU ARE INVADING.
YOU LITERALLY TOLD ASHE TO RECRUIT HIM THAT DIMITRI WOULDN’T WANT HIM TO DIE SO JUST GIVE UP
FUCK, SYVAIN, I AM SO SORRY.
Oh, Arval is bringing up Myson now. Arval right. No one seems to care about the nature of Shez’s powers. In SB, they talked about it all the fucking time.
At least Claude is AWARE that Edelgard wants to unite all of Foldan.
But his logic is so fucking flawed. Remove the church, then the moral reason for Edelgard’s war is removed. BUT THAT’S WRONG.
Everyone is a fucking moron.
Chapter 12
Yuri thinks it’s cruel to bring Ashe along and make him fight in his own territory
Balthus says the previous king sounds like a pretty great guy
Oh, NOW Claude doesn’t want more casualties by not telling Sreng the previous Margrave is dead
Lorenz isn’t bothered by Claude’s plans. He’s just bothered that Claude didn’t tell him originally.
Hapi points out that the Kingdom is going to probably hold a grudge against us
What? You can point out to Claude that the Empire will likely continue their war even if the Central Church is gone and he is still like “yeah, but... this is the best way I think”
Dimitri has realized pretty much realized what Claude is after, but comes they are “in the war because of the Central Church”. Not really, the Empire was going to come knocking anyways. Why do people KEEP FORGETTING THIS?!
A lot of side maps is protecting the citizens from bandits and shit since... you know, Claude is invading
Ingrid appears in a side map here.
I took Holst out on an expedition. He thinks accepting the Church of Seiros; teachings is to abandon reason. He also says that pink hair is part of the Goneril bloodline
There is also a side map where part of the Kingdom army stages an attack for vengeance for Margrave Gautier
“Let’s see if a crushing defeat can get through Dimitri’s thick skull!” But you didn’t even try to reach out to him originally... This was your first and only plan....
Lorenz - “How long it’s been since I visited the capital! I would love to come back and study magic here!” SAYS THE INVADER
Dimitri evacuated the city. :,(
Brah, Claude is an ass. Sylvain is like “You killed my dad!” And Claude is just “Well, we are all trying to live here!”
It takes THREE Crested people to even have a shot at Dimitri.
Dimitri just retreats?
No fucking way... We are RETREATING?! AFTER ALL THAT?!
MOTHERFUCKERS!
And then Arval points out how no one seems to seriously consider you are part of the Slithers.
Paralogues
There is a single paralogue in chapter 11 with Claude. You cannot do this paralogue if Judith dies.
Oh no, someone is attacking the capital! How just so... so horrible. Just like another capital under siege somewhere....
Claude wants people in Foldan to look outwards and shit. Well Claude, maybe if you STOPPED INCITING RACE WARS IN OTHER NATIONS THEY MAY CONSIDER IT.
Judith finally learns the truth, that Claude is an Almyran prince. Shez also figured it out pretty much when they fought Shahid.
Claude literally has two crowns, hereditary crowns, due to his bloodline.
ALTERNATIVE PATH
If you are playing on NG+ and kill Jeralt and have Arval in your barracks, a special paralogue opens up for Arval specifically.
It’s a story of the past.
Nemesis retreated, and these Slithers are also retreating. Epimenides is covering their retreat.
Some interesting things.
Thales was still alive at this point. Epimenides doesn’t really like him though
Once, the slithers had overwhelmed the Nabateans through sheer numbers, but don’t have those numbers anymore
The slithers truly believe that Sothis is no god
They “pity” those fighting for her since they don’t know what they are fighting for (frankly, I don’t either, this game told me nothing about why I’m fighting for you, Arval)
Seiros and co don’t really seem to know who Epimenides is...
Epimenides knows that the Saints are spawn of Sothis
Chapter 12
Only the Wolves paralogue is available. I already did it on my SB run so I don’t have anything new to say
Supports
Chapter 11 Supports
Leonie and Shez A support - This support opens up if you recruit Jeralt (stays locked if you don’t though). Leonie is literally fucking jealous of Jeralt’s own kid, even saying she is his first apprentice. At least Shez points out that they have been together WAY longer than she has, and they are literally family. I cannot stand Leonie in Hopes, and I really liked her in Houses overall.
For some reason, Claude gets supports with two of the Wolves.
Claude and Constance C support - Claude wants Constance’s magic to change hairstyles (to slip out of sticky situations).
Claude and Hapi B support - Hapi says claude is more comfortable being with him than the emperor or the king of the Kingdom. Which, like... Dimitri is like, the nicest king ever?
Claude and Constance B support - Apparently, the men in Almyra LOVE that mountain beard look
I really don’t know why Claude got a support with Hapi. Claude skipping out on meetings, and stuff... I mean, it’s cute, but I just don’t see the connection here.
Books
Book of Seiros I
The Revelation
The goddess is all things.
She is heaven above and the land below.
She is eternity incarnate.
She is the present, the past, and the future.
Her eyes see all. Her ears hear all. Her hands receive all.
She who was graced with the holy word of the divine goddess, who bore witness to her magnificence, is the one called Seiros. She is the messenger of the heavens, the bridge between the lands above and below, and her blessing shall bring tidings of peace to all.
With the goddess’s omnipotence and wisdom to guide her, Seiros ensures that her will be done. As the goddess’s sword, Seiros wards away evil. As the goddess’s child, Seiros makes emperors of mortals. As the goddess’s wings, Seiros elevates her people. As the goddess’s voice, Seiros spreads the word of love.
That sublime sword is entrusted to you. Those emperors are crowned before you. Those wings clear your path. That voice whispers words of trust. May the blessings of the goddess follow you, always.
Crestological Mysteries
Chapter 13 - Crest of the Beast
Maurice’s Crest. Held by Maurice, one of the eleven clan leaders who followed Nemesis more than a thousand years ago.
Was a fearsome warrior who as a young man felled a giant wolf with just a sword. Called a hero in his clan, and soon defeated his father to take over as leader...
We don’t know when he received the Crest. One theory is it was after he swore to fight for Nemesis, who had just defeated him in single combat.
Or it could be that the Hero’s Relic Blutgang answered his subconscious call for aid when he came face-to-face with an evil presence. He got the sword from Nemesis.
For the Imperial Army, Maurice and Blutgang became a beast of calamity. His sword was made to end lives. Mounted and flying enemies made for particularly good targets.
He rampaged through the battlefield, killing many enemy generals and finally a holy warrior. He was greatly feared...
... After the battle of Gronder Field, the war front moved north and Maurice became increasingly unhinged. No one knows why. One day after destroying an enemy camp, he disappeared.
North of the battlefield lay a vast, misty wood, known as the Enchanted Forest of Mircea. No one who went there to search ever returned...
The Crest of the Beast was inherited by the wild oats sown by Maurice and his sons. They lived on in the shadows of various clans and families, and in particular lords who bore a grudge towards the Empire.
Whenever it became known that someone possessed this detestable Crest, they would suddenly fall ill or meet their end in an untimely accident. Inevitably, the Crest became an unspoken curse...
Torn Pages of a Story
Epilogue
The self-proclaimed king takes a small whistle from the leather satchel on his waist and blows into it sharply. A large dark shadow appears in the night sky, and a wyvern descends to the man’s side. He says to the young girl watching, “Get on if you wish. The choice is yours.”
Without hesitation, the girl approaches the wyvern. The man who says he is the king’s vassal speaks to her.
“You are the daughter of a lord, are you not? You must surely want for nothing back at your home. Would you throw that all away on a flight of fancy with our king?”
The girl smiles and answers the king’s vassal.
“If he can promise to show me something new, I would happily throw it all away. It may be foolish, but it is my foolishness. And surely one can only find true freedom by abandoning themselves to their own whims...”
(This seems to be a fantasy story based on a real person. The first half is missing, so it’s hard to understand what’s happening).
Tome of Comely Saints
Facts cannot be determined and this text will not take it into account
People think of Saint Macuil when they hear the term comely saint.
Countless songs and poems have been written about his immaculate good looks, among them “The Breeze Upon the Maiden’s Cheek”...
Composed by the Empire’s first female poet: “Winds summoned by wings. Rainbows dripping like glaze. Your beauty sets My heart ablaze.”
... But we must not forget Saint Cichol. Some claimed he had countless lovers, while others insist he had one true love throughout his life.
Very few records of saints being married, yet we know Cichol married. His own daughter was made a saint as well. The latter theory is therefore likely true. but of course at the Rhodos Coast...
... Saint Luca and his many offspring, though much of what is said is likely fiction. The man loved love, and a great affection for the many children he brought into the world. However, appearances can be deceiving. Was he truly the comely saint?
If we consider he perhaps was simply using some sort of power to change his appearance, then...
(A book about the saints. It contains many portraits and is well-worn).

Dimitri's Supports
I have waited FOREVER for this. Let's go. And I decided to put my patience to the test, saving Dedue for last.
Since it's Dimitri and I love him, and like Dedue who I also love, he's the only one unlocking all his A-Supports, I'm going to blog all my reactions to them like I did with Dedue. Part of me wishes I thought of this for the other characters, but honestly it would've taken forever lol. Plus Dimitri and Dedue get special treatment because I said so.
Raphael
Starting off with something light hearted, I hope. I do wonder if I'm going to regret not saving this one for the inevitably heavy-handed stuff coming later.
I'm seriously betting this is a support you're supposed to get in part 1 lol. Dimitri sounds young (or maybe I'm just haven't heard non-growl part 2 Dimitri enough yet?)
Dimitri's training made Raphael think he was dying lol. Dimitri's strength is really meme tier.
I need fanart of Dimitri and Chrom co-miserating their mishandled strength breaking something. And Lucina.
Lamo, Raphael has never felt a cramp before. Lucky bastard.
Raphael is a sweetie, going to apologize to his muscles. I really wish they gave him something else to talk about other than muscles and food. Not everyone needs Dimitri tier development, but I think I'd like Raphael a lot more if he just got a smidge more depth.
Got to say, it's a bit jarring to go from "moments away from a suicide charge in the rain" to "lol, Raphael, it's muscle pain." As glad as I am that I got this support, I do think some should've been locked to part 1.
And this isn't just for Dimitri's development. I also saw Marianne and Raphael's B before this support and she reverted back to her part 1 self too.
Catherine
Maybe it's just me, but he does sound a bit older.
OMG - Dimitri's back. 😭😭😭
Sorry, it didn't really hit in that first one since that seemed like a part 1 support.
Oh, cool! I was wondering if anyone would bring up Catherine returning to Faerghus. My bets is she's too loyal to Rhea. (I guessed right)
Catherine be simpin. That's ok, I get it.
So it's not because Catherine dislikes Dimitri, or that she's absolutely needed to rule House Charon, so I think Dimitri just likes her. She's cool though. I get it.
Lamo, she told him he'd better get his sleep like he's a kid.
Curious how the A+ support will play out.
Mercedes
Team Mom's support!
Oh, no, this one's taking a serious turn isn't it? But their initial supports were so light and cute.
Mercedes just told Dimitri that he's kind to a fault. Somehow I know he's going to deny that.
Annnnnd I'm right 😭😭😭He's still calling himself a killer and disgusting monster 😭😭😭
OK - so THIS seems perfectly in tone with his recent character development. But it's so sad hearing him still talk about himself that way.
Mercedes is such a therapist. I can't. She's too pure. But savage. I saw that Lorenz support.
"I am scared . . . so scared that I will forget their faces." 😭😭😭😭😭😭 Dimitri why????
Mercedes telling Dimitri to live in the present. Her supports are always so good. I legit think she's easily a top 10 favorite in this game.
Wow, Dimitri saying if someone told him that 5 years ago, he'd be different. DID NO ONE EVER GIVE HIM ANY HELP AT ALL???
I love how she's talking to him as a classmate, and equal, and not talking up to him. He's always wanted that.
Dimitri's never given his own dreams any thought 😭😭😭He really was just 100% living for other people most of the time. 😭😭😭
Awww MERCEDES, I can't. She says she just wants to keep being his friend. This is so damn sweet. And heavy. But still sweet.
It just hits super hard knowing how badly Dimitri just wanted friends in part 1. And looking back, Mercedes and Sylvain were really the only two who were pretty casual with him.
Aww, yeah, Mercedes not putting up with the bullshit, Dimitri. Telling him to quit the self-deprecation! God, I love her.
Oh, God, they both said the old FE code for "we're married" i.e. I want to "stay by your side."
Ok, @garlandgerard, I totally get why you ship this. Mercedes loves to nurture people, and Dimitri's emotionally needy, so they match pretty well. She also didn't put up with the constant self-put-downs, but stayed gentle about it. And they talked like equals too, like friends, which is what Dimitri always wanted. It's all very sweet.
Annette
Yeah, see, this one starts off with "your highness," but Mercedes it was just Dimitri. No hate for Annette. She's my girl.
These two always give me sibling vibes.
Haha, Annette "I thought I already knew you, but I'm not sure I really do." Hmmmm wonder what Dimitri did that made her think that maybe there's parts of him she didn't know. No. idea.
Hey, Annette, no one blames you for not knowing what to say to Dimitri when they reunited lol.
Annette too pure too, wanting to cheer Dimitri up with his favorite food.
Her not knowing what he likes to eat is 100% that moment when you realize you don't know someone's favorite color.
HOW can Dimitri have no strong feelings about food. I'm having pizza right now. Let me tell you, I have strong feelings about some food.
I love how easily Dimitri deflected from talking about himself lol.
Awwww, Annette wants to live with her family again. I'll make that happen, Annette. Don't worry.
Haha, they're conspiring together behind Gilbert's back.
They still have an A+ support, which is weird, because that seemed pretty well ended? Like I see why Catherine's needed more, but not this one. Still, not going to say no. I like their dynamic.
Ingrid
OCF they're training. God I love all the Faerghus childhood group though.
Oh, fuck, here comes Glenn again. My heart's not ready for this with Rodrigue dead. Poor Felix.
Ingrid being Dimitri's knight 😊😊😊 as it should be.
Haha, Dimitri asks her for an interpretation. Just make her your knight.
Glad he hasn't started saying "I'm not worthy!" Because right now it's about Ingrid's feelings.
Wow, there, Ingrid. "However you please, Your Highness." That . . . that sounds like an invitation. To "staying by your side."
Dimitri laughed. 😊😊😊
Oh, God, this is so cute. His pause asking her to support and defend him as his knight. 😊😊😊 OMG. I'm not sure that's all she had in mind though, good Sir, have you LOOKED in the mirror?
Seriously though, Ingrid's just surrounded by studs, isn't she?
Oh, God, I'm right. She didn't just mean knight. But Dimitri's too dense in that area to notice. She crushing hard. Girl, I get you.
She blushing, saying "for the Kingdom," naw, she just like him. Me too, Ingrid. Me too.
Dimitri always makes people promise not to die on him. It's so sad considering . . .
Flayn
With Flayn it's always a toss up. Sometimes things are super light hearted, and other times it's way heavy.
On a random note, does no one wonder why Flayn hasn't aged a day in 5 years?
Flayn having nightmares. Not allowed. I bet it's fucking Jeritza's fault. I'm glad you get to rip him a new one so many times in this game.
Why is Flayn apologizing?? She's never done a thing wrong in her life.
Right, Flayn's other support with Dimitri was pretty heavy. And it started so funny with him stomaching her food.
Oh, good grief, what's he apologizing for? Ok - so Dimitri did do some things wrong. But not to Flayn.
He lied. Let me guess. Her food actually sucks.
Aw, got it. He went right to the meal. Is he really going to come out and say, well it actually sucked 😂
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE MEALS???? AND THE TEA an embarrassing amount of tea.
Wait. He can't taste ANYTHING??? Like. How? Did he hide that????
Ok - I need to look at his team and dining dialogue.
OMG. He really never says a word about how anything tastes? He always just talks about smells????
OMG. How did I NOT NOTICE. I've taken Dimitri to dinner a million times. And tea timed him too many times to admit too.
AND I NEVER NOTICED HE NEVER ONCE SAID HOW ANYTHING TASTED. HOW.
OMG that support with Annette hits different now 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
OMG and Dedue's support with Flayn hits different now. Since he wanted to badly to find food Dimitri loves 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Does Dedue know? Is that why he's so dedicated to cooking??
Can I headcannon that?
OMG, I feel so awful about that jab about pizza. Dimitri CAN'T TASTE pizza or anything 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Please someone tell me there isn't any more "this awful thing also happened to Dimitri and he's failed to tell you" like learning he almost fucking died at Duscur. And now this. Dimitri needs to learn how to fucking complain.
The writers are so fucking mean to Dimitri. OMG. OMG, how am I supposed to take him to dinner and tea now, knowing this?
Why does everything hit so differently now? And so many Blue Lions supports are about food - but Dimitri can't relate
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This game needs to stop bullying Dimitri.
But like, God, can you imagine? Not tasting anything? I'd starve. I'd actually starve. I never really get hungry. I really would starve.
On the flip side, he's good for Flayn then, since someone can eat her cooking I guess.
"I was just saying what I thought you would want to hear . . ." Dimitri - a summary.
Naw, that's a kind lie. That kind of lie doesn't really hurt anyone.
Oh - dear God. Flayn. Stop. No sampling pungent food.
Oh, she blushing. Dimitri got her blushing
Please tell me in their paired ending Dimitri gets his taste back.
Oh, there's an A+, does he taste something. Please tell me he tastes something.
This support though. It wasn't really one on my radar but
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Gilbert
Oh, man, this one right after Flayn's. God, I'm going to need the Alois one after this. Gilbert and Dimitri are two of the most somber characters in the franchise.
And I haven't forgotten that heartbreaking B support.
Haha Lambert sucked at lying too. Dimitri too pure. Weirdly, despite everything, it's still pretty true.
Oh, shit, oh shit, we're back to Dimitri's demand that Gilbert kill him. I'm betting you usually get that in part 2.
God, imagine seeing Dimitri recover only to see him beg for death again 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I need alcohol.
I need the Alois support.
OMG, shit, Dimitri. No. Don't. Stop.
Like, I know Gilbert won't really kill him, but damn. This support is heavy.
No, Dimitri, no Gilbert is not cruel for not killing you. God.
Oh, not sure about this. I get what Gilbert's going at here, but telling Dimitri that he's not allowed to die because he's got a duty is . . . I think Rodrigue's and Mercedes' live for what you want/the present is a LOT healthier.
At the same time, this is a pretty effective way to make sure Dimitri won't go and try this again, because he really takes duty seriously.
Dimitri doesn't wish to die? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh, thank God.
"Many times I have felt that I cannot afford to die . . . But this was the first time I truly feared the prospect." 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
"Is it really right for me to live?" Oh, dear God. I'm so soft for Dimitri. I can't.
Gilbert answered that one right. 100%.
Damn, these supports.
Alois
OK. I need this one. I really need this one.
I really hope Alois' inspiration is bad puns. I need bad puns right now.
Pretty sure this is a part 1 support though. I love how Alois, not Dimitri, is leading this. And that the person the Kingdom NEEDS is running around and getting attacked by monsters lol
Ok, bad puns. Bring them.
There we go. Thank you, thank you, Alois.
OMG no one's laughing 😂😂😂
Dimitri's laughing 😭😭😭😭😭😭
That's it. This is always getting saved for part 2. I need to hear part 2 Dimitri laugh.
I'm also so glad someone finds Alois funny. Dimitri and Petra need to start a club.
OMG I love the two other confused soldiers. I needed this 😂😂😂
Marianne
These two were so sweet in their C and B supports.
I swear I'm going to end up shipping Dimitri with everyone. Except maybe Annette, no hate, they just seem so much like brother and sister to me.
And Felix x Annette 100%
Survivor's Guilt - the pairing. Both wondering why they survived 😭😭😭
"There are so many others who are much more deserving of life . . ." - who said it? Marianne or Dimitri?
These two just understand how each other feels so well. It hits so different compared to Marianne's other romantic possible supports where they just try to make her smile.
Instead these two take comfort in finding someone who understands how they feel so well and feel relieved they can share that with someone.
Haha - "I must go on living. I cannot give in to death so readily." This coming right after his support with Gilbert. Good job, Gilbert.
They've both had it so rough 😭😭😭😭😭😭
"There is no need to force yourself to smile as your soul bleeds." Dimitri always gives such good advice that he never follows.
Aww, now at least it's getting cute instead of just heavy. Marianne laughed too 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Yesss, Girl, preach. I got a little sick of her other supports all being "cheer up!" Like I know it's all in good faith, but I'm so glad this chain exists. It just hits different.
Dimitri doesn't think he's strong enough to live his life. 😭😭😭 this game. I swear.
ohhhh - ohhh, Dimitri blushing now. And all she needed to say was they've been brought closer together. Congrats Marianne!
OHHHH tables have been turned. Now someone's making Dimitri promise he needs to live!
"I don't know what I'd do with myself if we lost you . . ."
"I promise to the goddess of Fodlan that I will never give you cause for despair."
OMG these two are being so sweet, I can't. 😭😭😭😊😊😊
Felix
Oh, boy, here we go. This should be . . . interesting.
Oh, we're starting off good I see. Felix telling Dimitri he needs to answer quickly or get cut in half 😔Felix. No.
Dimitri sounds so somber 😭
Dimitri admitting both are him - the vengeful "boar" and the friendly good person. And this is why I love him.
Dimitri feels the need to shoulder all the regret the dead feel, please don't. They wouldn't want that 😭😭😭😭😭
"The dead won't acknowledge your loyalty, they don't care." - Felix not wrong there.
I partly agree with the idea Dimitri is "serving his own ego" by claiming he's acting for the dead. I think it's a bit more complicated than that, but I think that's part of it.
Felix saying some good stuff here about the dead being dead and the living being living.
"If you keep stringing gravestones around your neck, you'll snap." - Felix, I don't know if you noticed but . . . uh . . . he sort of did.
Felix telling Dimitri to become a grave keeper is a bit funny. Not going to lie.
"I'm not immune to emotion you know." - just tsunderes things
Aw, Felix is upset his father died 😭😭 after all that shit-talking about Rodrigue 😭😭
Wish Felix didn't cut Dimitri off when he said "more than anyone you-" (care about other people, unless he joins CF and just kills everyone)
Oh, God, Felix is such a tsundere. "I couldn't stand the pathetic look on your face. That's all." Sure, Felix.
Kinda wish these two had an A+ though. Seems like there's more to do than the A+ with Annette and Flayn.
Really curious to see what their paired ending is like after that. Seems they're still learning to learn about each other. Well, Felix is. Dimitri didn't seem too upset lol.
Dedue
Ok guys. Here we go. I can't believe I managed to wait for this for last. Everyone hyped this one, so let's hope.
Really? We open with Dimitri having scars on his back? 😭
From 9 years ago? So scars from Duscur then?
Images of shirtless Dimitri now. though Not bad images.
He got scars protecting Dedue?
"It makes me think that is was worthwhile that someone like me survived." 😭😭😭 he's talking about protecting Dedue? 😭😭😭
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
"But I saved someone - saved you. That and that alone has been my crutch." 😭😭😭😭😭
I always knew these two were co-dependent.
Dimitri really out here saying that saving Dedue helped him "justify" surviving. 😭😭😭😊😊😊
OMG THAT'S THEIR STORY
OMG, poor Dedue. And Dimitri 😭😭😭did he literally "take a bullet" to save Dedue 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 and still has scars? No wonder Dedue's so loyal. Some kid he didn't know did that. That's one hell of an introduction.
And picturing little Dedue just resigned and angry and waiting to die and just 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh, Dedue, you've repaid that debt ten-fold I'm sure.
Ahaha, Dimitri's doing the "you'd better accept your worth!" discussion this time lol.
Dear God these two. Now Dimitri's bringing up that Dedue busted him out of the jail.
I swear, these two have more of a plot off screen than some routes do on screen.
And now picturing Dimitri resigned and just ready to die. And then Dedue busts in. 😭😭😭
"That was nothing more than my duty as your vassal." Stop that Dedue. Dimitri doesn't want you to be his vassal. He wants more.
Holy shit.
"You are irreplaceable. Cherished." 😭😭😭😊😊😊😭😭😭😊😊😊😭😭😭😊😊😊😭😭😭😊😊😊
Not to be that person - but I tell all my "friends" that.
Yes, Dedue, stop saying insisting you're just a "vassal" - that's a worse joke than Alois' puns from earlier.
"Please . . . do not look at me that way." What way, like you're about to make Dimitri cry, or like . . .
"You promised me you would build a Kingdom that is proud to boast of Duscur blood." - shit, man, these two. I just . . .
OMG so much emotion from Dedue. The only time I ever heard that before was in VW when he learned Dimitri died. But let's not remember that right now 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh shit. He called him "Dimitri." 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
And it made him blush.
OMG.
Guys, these two.
Aww, Dimitri looks so surprised. 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Oh, these two are so soft for each other. I can't. I just can't.
"To be your friend . . . is what I have always wanted." You're going to get it.
Man, I feel almost guilty S-Supporting Dimitri. He needs to pair up with Dedue pronto.
Dimitri sounds chocked up. OMG.
"So please call upon me when you walk alone at night." Ok. Dedue. Ok. Yes. Guys. This is all very straight.
I'm not saying it's - you know - cannon, but there's some big feels here.
Oh, Dimitri, stop it. You like Dedue's overprotectiveness. Don't lie.
Man, you guys were so right. Dimitri really just came out and said Dedue was "cherished" and "irreplaceable." Like, I'm not making this stuff up. And Dedue blushing hardcore just saying Dimitri's name.
They're both just so soft. I can't. I literally cannot. This support was gold. It was worth all they hype.
And learning more about how they meant. Dimitri really taking a bullet for Dedue there. I just . . .
I just want all the happiness for both of them. They're really something special towards each other. Like I legitimately think this is one of the most two-way loyal relationships in the whole franchise, and definitely the tightest bond in this game.
Like in past games you had Seth for Ephraim and Erikia and Soren for Ike and it's not like Ike, Ephraim and Erikia and etc don't care, but it wasn't the same level, you know? But this is such a two way street.
And I'm so weak for bodyguard with a crush. Like Seth/Eirika? Yes. Geoffrey/Elincia? 100%. Riza/Roy (Fullmetal Alchemist) there again. I'm sure there's more, but those are my top ones. Even Merlin/Arthur sort of counts even if Arthur doesn't know Merlin's his bodyguard lol.
I need to read fanfic for these two. I really don't want to spoil anything, but I'm dying. They're both just so sweet, and I just really love their dynamic. I really want to do a write up on it once I get to the end of the game.

Ok hear me out: just when the dimidue kids thought their classmates were done crushing on their papa there’s this albeit smaller subset that rises from the ashes that’s trying to woo dedue. Some of the kids are getting ready to graduate so they’re just thank god but the younger ones are still in school and are just like please homeschool us this isn’t worth it
Also I feel any single parents at this school are gonna be thirsty af over all four of these parents. Like Felix trust sylvain but he doesn’t like these weirdos ogling his husband and there was an incident TM so now Felix makes sure they both go. And poor poor dimitri still doesn’t see that he’s being flirted with so Felix is like FINE I’ll babysit both of them and make sure they don’t get eaten alive
Oh absolutely, especially if this is chef Dedue AU and Dedue is like. Kind of famous. These poor kids just had the unfortunate luck of having a total MILF and a total DILF as parents. (On the other hand hey at least they’ll grow up hot!)
And again if this is chef Dedue AU then the flirting with Sylvain would be especially bad when Andrè is younger, since Felix was pretty lowkey about attending school functions and Sylvain doesn’t talk about Felix at them, a lot of parents think he actually is a single dad. Poor Andrè, every classmate teases him for it, and every classmate’s parent wants to fuck his dad.
Even if this isn’t chef Dedue AU though I can see Felix staying lowkey, or working a lot so he doesn’t always have time to attend school functions. Just imagine the faces of all the flirtatious single moms when Felix rolls up and Sylvain is like “HEY EVERYONE MEET MY HUSBAND!!!”
They’re like “wait shit he’s real?”
And they can’t even deny it because Fraldarius Cloning Project, little Andrè looks just like his mama. Except his mama just walked in and saw a bunch of the other moms trying to flirt with his husband, so he has a pretty sour look on his face.

I’ve been playing more FE3H the past couple days to like..... actually play the game, rather than relying entirely on let’s plays, and man, I have to say that Felix is like. one of those characters where I wouldn’t really put him in my list of favs, but god damn is he fascinating to watch. Like, on the one hand he’s the Edgy Asshole of the team and he’s a dick to everyone he meets and/or keeps trying to fight everyone, but on the other hand a lot of his bullshit is because his brother Glenn’s death has left him disillusioned with chivalry and knighthood, but also on the other other hand he’s not so big a blood knight (yet?) that he doesn’t have standards. The way he interacts with Dimitri is particularly spicy given that they used to be dear friends, but then Felix got an early glimpse of Dimitri’s bloodthirsty side, and whatever he saw that day scared the shit out of him. Maybe he was just spooked at seeing what had to be some deeply OOC behavior from the guy he thought he knew, maybe Dimitri crossed a moral line by Felix’s standards, maybe it’s that he’s deeply concerned about Dimitri’s wellbeing and he just expresses it in a shitty way. Or maybe it was like looking at his own reflection, and seeing Dimitri start down that dark path gave Felix some self-awareness and made him think “Oh fuck, that could be me someday”. Probably it’s all of the above. There’s a very real tension going on here between his dickishness, cynicism, and love of fighting VS him having some actual standards and morals, and I’m super interested in seeing where this is going given how his arc seems to reflect Dimitri’s (and we all know how Dimitri’s arc goes.....).

Cockroach attacking Black Eagles here!
Why is the cockroach still here? Just to suffer?
Thanks for the ask anon, I hope you enjoy!
Blue Lions/Golden Deer Students being attacked by a Cockroach
-----
Blue Lions
Dimitri -
“Gross.”
- He isn’t particularly bothered by it. After all, their classroom led directly outdoors.
- He’s more annoyed than anything.
Dedue -
Felix -
- He doesn’t really care, its only when it gets near him is when he’ll try to swat it away. Pretty much the same reaction as Dimitri.
Sylvain -
- Pretty grossed out, but tries to kill it so he can get the girl’s gratitude.
- It doesn’t work.
- It somehow keeps flying away from him everytime he gets near it.
- He’s convinced its trying its hardest to make Sylvain look stupid.
Ashe -
- As a former thief who was homeless with his siblings, he’s pretty used to them, but still finds them disgusting.
- He’ll try to kill it himself, but it’s so elusive he kinda just gives up.
Mercedes & Annette -
- Pretty much what you expected, PREPARE FOR SCREAMING.
- They’d be hiding behind each other as the thing flew closer to them, completely disrupting the class. Neither wants to kill it because then it’s guts would be everywhere (i don’t blame them, tbh if i’m anyone on this list it’d be these two)
Ingrid -
“DIE MONSTER, YOU DON’T BELONG IN THIS WORLD!”
- She’d be actively trying to stab this damned thing with a knife she somehow had on her despite weapons not being permitted in the classroom.
Golden Deer
Claude -
- He’d be trying to weaponize this thing so he can terrify the rest of the class.
- “HEY HILDA, LOOK WHAT I FOUND-”
- He’d also give it a name for how many shenanigans he’d be using it for, god help their class.
Hilda, Leonie, Lysithea -
- ALL OF THEM ARE BEING TERRORIZED BY CLAUDE
- NONSTOP, THEY CAN’T STOP SCREAMING BECAUSE HE SOMEHOW MANAGES TO ALWAYS GUIDE IT TOWARDS THEM
- HE SHOWS NO MERCY
Raphael -
- He probably loves the little guy, and wants to keep it as a pet.
- The first thing he does is try to feed it.
(okay off topic, but what do cockroaches actually eat? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a thing of what they actually eat. It must be smaller bugs, right? I’m actually curious.)
- He’d probably end up taming it and turn it into that one cockroach from WALL-E.
Ignatz -
- VERY VERY grossed out by it.
- Does the normal thing and try to squash it, but doesn’t prevail. He then tries to think strategically, trying to get into a corner.
- Then it flies onto his face and starts screaming.
Marianne -
- She’d probably wouldn’t care.
- Sure she’d be grossed out if it landed on her or something, but it’s not causing any trouble.
- Claude doesn’t abuse his cockroach powers on Marianne.
- In fact, it kinda just...ignores her altogether.
- No one knows why, but it just straight up never goes for her.
(Marianne) “Suffer like me, and exist.”
- the cockroach gets too depressed everytime it goes near Marianne.
EDIT: I FORGOT MY BOY LORENZ, OH GOD OH FUCK
Lorenz -
- He’d be laughing at all the commoners for being afraid of such a small bug
- But the instant it goes near him, he’ll start flipping shit and screaming as well.
- No one feels obligated to help him out afterwards.
- In fact, Claude also intentionally sends the cockroach to attack Lorenz, and it does so with joy.

fun oc facts
ciaun:
has 4 siblings. where are they now? haha, who Fuckin knows,
is 6′8′’ post-timeskip (same height as dedue)
his favorite (rl) flowers are zinnias & (black) dahlias
his favorite teas are pomegranate & chamomile. genuinely doesnt have a preference on drinking them sweetened or unsweetened. depends on the mood.
can grow fur around specific parts of his body (bottom of the face, lower neck to the chest & back, back of arms and legs)
his birthdate is the 30th of the ethereal moon/december
out of the whole cast, would get along with these characters the best (in a hypothetical scenario where he got a chance to know and get close with like, everyone): linhardt, bernadetta, petra, dimitri (pppprrre timeskip. post-timeskip dimitri and ciaun, uh. Jesus christ. There’s a lot of negative shit going on there. Complicated), dedue, ashe, mercedes, ignatz, marianne(?), flayn
can make these [1] sounds [2], tends to make a little weird meowing sound when he yawns
he hates actually killing, but isn’t afraid to be violent as a first resort post-timeskip and is edgy as HELL whenever he’s irritated both pre and post-timekip (“I have eaten the flesh of man turned demonic beast as reward of my victory. I fear no ‘beast’, especially not the kind that you think you are. Nothing but prey pretending to be a predator to me.” - “But lucky for you, as I’ve said, I consider myself pretty tame. Which means, if challenged, I’ll only beat you within an inch of your life instead.”)
farren:
stays 5′3′’ after the timeskip... sorry bud
may or may not have some dragon-people blood goin on in there who knows
afraid of horses pre timeskip, warms up to them a lot post timeskip, but is a total wyvern lover at heart
doesnt have a favorite flower! just likes any cause they look pretty
favorite tea flavor........ do you think they have salted caramel tea in 3h’s world? god i hope they do
he keeps his birthday a secret! he would only tell people he really trusts, though the range of people's guesses is anywhere from october to january.
who does he get along with best? Yes and no. Everyone and no one. pre timeskip he basically avoids everyone and will go as far as to run away from people to avoid interacting with them unless they need his help. post timeskip he is a Friend To All (goes from tripping over every word and running to “My friends! It has been far too long- Please tell me you are all well! Oh, I cannot wait to catch up, perhaps over a feast? Ah, after the battle is done, of course! You have my strength. We will not fall as long as we are together!”)
heulfryn:
same species as ciaun, different variant! but he has no interest in transforming at all. if he did he’d likely look like a weird fucked up mix between some sort of canine and various deer species
5′9′’ pre & post timeskip.
the only animal features he has pre-timeskip are his ears, which he uses magic to hide. post-timeskip he doesn’t care. he’s the opposite of ciaun in which he preferred to keep his true nature a secret pre-timeskip
he does shed his antlers, and its terrifying.
i dont have a ton on him but he’s a friendly guy. in a modern au he’d be making videos like this
brenni:
LITERALLY A JOKE OC i just love having him around. he was just the dude i made to represent my first blue lions playthrough where i was overleveled and murdering everything with an axe or my Bare Fucking Fists
he’s an absolute MORON. again a JOKE. but i Love adding more shit to him, so you get facts anyway
he does not think Anything is real. extremely good at murdering because he thinks the FIVE YEAR WAR is just ONE VERY ELABORATE, BIG PLAY
if he messes up your name thats Your Name Now. some of what he calls ppl r nicknames and others are just fuckups he doesnt understand are Wrong. this ranges from calling dimitri 'mimi', his most normal name, calling felix ANY type of species of cat in Existence, and callying sylvain 'silly' becuase he genuinely does not grasp thaat his name is Sylvain
he’s 6 ft and doesn’t have a concept of whats appropriate to do so if you are smaller than him he’ll likely pick you up like. like you know how longcat’s owner held her??????? Like that. if he’s around and you’re small and you need to Get Somewhere he will carry you to the location
he does not have a favorite tea. he probably chugs like, the early beta version of coffee, which really explains his hyper murderisms

If you wouldn't mind, could you do Felix for the character list?? Good luck with your blog!!
Oh, thank you so much! And thank you so much for requesting one of my favs,,,
Minor spoilers Crimson Flower route!!
favorite thing about them
He knows what the hell he wants!! And he’s got the motivation to go for his goals!!! And I love the prickly yet actually has a heart of gold archetype!! His character growth is my shit
least favorite thing about them
he isn’t allowed to say fuck
but in all actuality, I don’t like that the only support where he isn’t like,, terribly harsh to the recipient is Annette’s supports? as far as the ones I’ve seen and I wish there was more!!
favorite line (i’m going to do two)
“Try not to catch a cold up here. I’d hate for such a good sparring partner to be out of commission.” excuse me Felix you can’t just th r ow that shit at me without a goddamn warning you handsome bastard--
------------------Spoilers for Crimson Flower route!!!----------------------
“Since I allied with you and the emperor, my resolve has never wavered. I abandoned my country. I am prepared to kill my father, and kill a man I once called my friend. Resolute as I am, my sword feels... heavy.”
bitch AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--
I wailed about this for like five minutes because it hurt so bad but my g o d was it so good
brOTP
Felix/Ingrid! I think it would be awkward for them to date for obvious reasons but I’d feel like they would have a clear sibling dynamic between them!!
Felix with Annette and/or Ashe is also very nice and valid!
OTP
Felix/Sylvain and Felix/Byleth yes I’m dumb and gay and Sylvix is good
nOTP
Dima/Felix. not that they wouldn’t be friends but god I can’t see romance going very well. I don’t want them to hurt each other and it would take so much time for both of them to heal and for Felix to fully trust Dimitri.
However, I’m not repulsed by it. There are some very good Dima/Felix fics I have enjoyed!
random headcanon
Felix drinks hot sauce from the bottle change my mind--
But I think Felix keeps things that remind him of his friends. A collection of rocks with certain colors and textures and such.
unpopular opinion
I think him being very cold/mean to people is very fair. It contributes to his character development with everyone. Doesn’t mean I don’t get a lil angry at him especially when he speaks to Dedue like that
song i associate with them
“Hello My Old Heart” by The Oh Hellos. It just resonates very well with his character and the style is very good. If you happen to check it out please look at other songs! I love The Oh Hellos a lot!!
favorite picture of them
it’s terrible quality but who gave him the right to look that cute

Lang Plays Fire Emblem: Three Houses
I’m playing them in this order: Blue Lions, Black Eagles, Church of Seiros, and then Golden Deer. (I organized them by how likely it is to have a true final boss who is actually as relevant to the lore as the opening cutscene. And also because I thoroughly spoiled myself about that.)
So, after sinking what the game tells me was eighty hours into a single playthrough, here’s my thoughts on the first thing I tackled.
Spoilers below the cut.
Very Early Game (Blue Lions):
It’s the Fire Emblem Dad! (I played Path of Radiance. I’ve seen this dude before.)
Hi Claude. Sorry, I’m gonna steal every single one of your peers I can catch. Same to you, Edelgard.
Dimitri is so awkward it’s almost palpable.
Aww, Ashe and Annette are adorable. Mercedes has that dead anime mom hairstyle that sets my teeth on edge, but she’s super nice. It’ll take me longer to warm up to the boys, I think.
Felix is the token “I MUST BECOME STRONGER” myrmidon character. Gotta have at least one per game, apparently.
Sylvain = Sain. Token womanizer cavalier. His support list is pretty odd, though.
Dedue = the guy who done punch things. And he *has* to punch things, because he’s slow as hell and his speed growth isn’t great.
What the fuck is that strength growth, Dimitri. What the fuck is that Charm growth.
I was so close to making him my team’s designated Dancer unit, you guys.
Beleth is gonna be their teacher and somehow I don’t imagine this going super well.
Pre-Timeskip School Life:
Once again, I regret not being able to support with characters who’ve firmly attached themselves to the other two houses. (Which is only like three people in my “gotta catch ‘em all” playthrough, but whatever.)
But I can support all the recruitables, which is...something that took me a long while to do.
The first person I stole for the Blue Lions was Caspar. The first person who straight-up joined was Flayn. Yay, auxiliary punchers and auxiliary-auxiliary healers!
Ashe, your adoptive father really didn’t need to die. You were right. It was all bad all the way down.
Flayn gets kidnapped and I fuck around for a month raising everyone else’s supports and realizing Seteth’s too distraught to train my Lance level. Dangit.
I missed the opportunity to support with Leonie entirely because her personality put me off for the first few in-game months, and it turns out you can only start her support chain while Jeralt is alive.
Dammit. Now I’ve gotta train with lances.
What’s-his-fuck over at the village sure did do a thing, didn’t he. And if he hadn’t dropped his disguise just then he could have gotten away with it.
Their scheme would’ve failed faster if anybody around this fucking monastery could apply logic to shapeshifter shenanigans.
Seriously, no one should have trusted Monica.
You vanish over the course of a year, and come back with your personality totally inverted.
Tomas/Solon had just demonstrated what it looks like when these dickbags drop cover, and then everyone subsequently failed to make the correct deduction. If they hadn’t, Jeralt would’ve lived.
Dad-stabbing: A theme of Fire Emblem games. Seriously. Check out the huge list of dead dads (which goes all the way back to the first game in the series.)
Also dead moms, but for some reason moms are less prominent in the series as a whole.
For the purposes of this analysis, we are also including every single boss who had kids. Which isn’t most of them, but god damn there are still a lot of dead dads.
Dorotheaaaaaa be my frieeeeeeend
Yoinked Linhardt after finally showering him in enough gifts to get his sleepy ass to sign transfer papers.
Swiped Marianne, Bernadetta, Petra, Ignatz, Alois (kinda), Shamir (sorta), Manuela (iffy), Hanneman (yoink), Catherine (see previous), Hilda (how), Lorenz (woop woop), and Leonie (sigh).
The Death Knight remains, for the moment, unpillaged for his Dark Seal drops. This time it was an accident: I killed everyone else in the room except for him and a priest/mage, but then that last dude squared up with Felix and died.
All the points I poured into their associated skills and their supports, however, left one big gap:
DAMMIT FERDINAND, I’M TRYING TO SAVE YOUR LIFE. WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH ABOUT HEAVY ARMOR. RAPHAEL JOINED UP DESPITE THAT.
(I got a B-rank support with him and he popped into my office to say he was transferring, nbd. Ferdinand’s B-rank is locked until after the timeskip.)
tl;dr: The only recruitable character I missed was Ferdinand.
Seteth and Gilbert don’t do shit until post-timeskip and Rhea isn’t playable, so w/e.
As soon as I say that, Seteth and Flayn have a paralogue. It’s a beach level. I hate beach levels and desert levels. Seteth gets to be MVP because he’s the only jerk who can fly.
They have a little speech after the paralogue level that reveals that they’re actually father and daughter, not siblings. And the whole story of this little subplot basically confirms that they’re dragons.
Neither of them transform over the course of the game, and that’s okay.
Ruh-roh, Raggy. Let’s see who’s really under the Flame Emperor’s mask--
“AND I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH IT TOO, IF NOT FOR--oh wait teleportation exists. BYE!”
Dimitri proceeds to thoroughly lose any chill he ever pretended to have, and I’m 99% sure the villain in question isn’t actually old enough to have caused the Tragedy of Duscur. Unless the biographies in the notes were lying.
Now, the backup dancers over there sure as shit are, but logical reasoning has its time and place.
Whatever. Time for stabbing.
WE ALREADY KNOW THESE PEOPLE ARE CAPABLE OF MAKING THEMSELVES LOOK LIKE ANYONE, MASKS TOTALLY UNNECESSARY. THE VICTIM ONLY HAS TO DISAPPEAR FOR A WHILE.
WHY AREN’T WE CHECKING THAT AS A BASIC PRECAUTION.
THERE HAVE BEEN THREE OF THESE CREEPS ALREADY.
Their name is too long and I should call them Morlocks.
But seriously, check for infiltrators.
What passes for strategy around here: Take Paladin Dimitri, plunk his overleveled ass down on a corner where all the enemies’ targeting reticles converge, and wait five minutes for all the counterkill animations to play out.
If I wanna try the same with Sylvain, he needs to be backed up by at least Annette and probably Felix. Maybe even Mercedes if she’s not already busy slinging Physics around.
Dimitri’s fine with just sitting around with a forged Steel Lance and poking holes in everything.
Beleth can do the same, but is much more reliant on dodging and not just facetanking axes.
The little “no damage!” sound effect is still very satisfying. Yes, game, my Defense/Resistance has escaped the bounds of your damage curve.
Dorothea became my Dancer unit, because despite Dimitri having twenty-eight Charm to her nineteen, he begged me not to and also is better sitting on a corner and killing everything.
Huh, the monastery is sure being invad--you know, Edelgard, if it wasn’t already really obvious that your faction is basically the “villain route” in Samurai Warriors parlance, using giant mop-headed demonic beasts as shock troops would probably give it away to observers. If they weren’t already running away in abject terror.
The principle from How to Train Your Dragon still applies: A downed dragon is a dead dragon. If Rhea didn’t want to basically get mobbed, she should’ve stayed in the air and acted as flying artillery for the Knights of Seiros with her mouth laser. She could’ve sat on top of a wall and fired with relative impunity.
Sure, some demonic beasts can fly, but there weren’t any in that cutscene and the flying ones have, mechanically, one less health meter than the landbound ones.
Also, they’re pushovers.
And there’s the washed-out creep brigade! They look like the Grimleal, but with more feathers and less of a tan.
...And there goes Beleth, off to have a five-year nap.
Welp.
Post Timeskip:
Oh good, it’s been five years. Beleth, I hate to break it to you, but you’re probably at least slightly dragon at this point. Check your ears if you have a chance.
Tiki canonically napped for like 99% of her three thousand years in Awakening, ironically enough, so it’s not like dragon-people are exactly early risers.
Poor rando gets asked “what year is it” like that question is ever used outside of fiction. Beleth doesn’t read time travel books, I take it.
“oh you probably shouldn’t go to the monastery, it’s like super haunted and shit”
“sorry what was that i couldn’t hear you over the sound of me climbing up to the monastery”
Eyyyy, it’s a lance-wielding pirate.
...Hi, Dimitri. Where’d your macaroni hair go.
You know, it’s not surprising that Dimitri would think Beleth was a hallucination. He spent a lot of time yelling at his inner demons even pre-timeskip, after taking a couple of severe psychological shocks.
But he absolutely should have walked into her and been surprised when he knocked them both on their asses.
He’s been spending the last five years stabbing people, hasn’t he.
Yep.
He looks like he fell out of Game of Thrones.
Blue Lions! Rah rah something team chant. Rah rah Rasputin, lover of the Russian queen~
None of you people trained any of your skills. In five years. Dimitri you were a paladin. Did you eat your horse.
You are all getting sent to boot camp.
Hi, Gilbert. Why are you playable now all of a sudden. Why is your speed a fucking two.
THIS IS WHY MIKLAN HANDED YOU YOUR ASS.
Once again, the “plunk Dimitri’s overleveled ass down on a corner and watch people die” plan is still a valid strategy. I still don’t know where he gets all this strength (and charm). Like, goddamn.
Annette got cornered for like five turns because I was too cowardly to put her in range of a Brawler.
Then she killed him with a critical Fire.
So, I guess Felix’s remarks about Dimitri’s issues make some sense now, but he should still stop making them. I know he’s a tsundere par excellence, but still.
STop TalKing AboUT KilLing PeoPle
Warning: Sympathetic Boss Approaching.
Look, most “sympathetic” bosses in Fire Emblem kinda fall flat. The better ones are placed in the way of the player characters while they’re in the middle of a low point in the emotional arc and get utterly wrecked in a flurry of misdirected fury. Sometimes the characters even feel bad about it afterward. The worst ones are the ones who are just utterly devoted to someone who’s earned everyone’s ire by being a utter fucking asshole.
Good: Mustafa from Awakening and Shiharam from Path of Radiance. Good people forced into bad situations. Or just cornered. Henry talked up the former long after he got a Chrom to the face, and the latter was probably the best-written of the “aw, I wish I didn’t have to kill him” bosses I’ve run across.
Bad: Levail from Radiant Dawn. There is no getting around the fact that General Zelgius was a bad dude. Levail holding him up as a paragon of knightliness and swearing to serve him out of sheer admiration did not make him even marginally better.
We sure did kill Caspar’s uncle, didn’t we. I’m sure that won’t come back to bite us square in the ass. Not after he had that “this guy is a person who cares about stuff” cutscene to remind us of his pixel humanity.
I’m sure it’s fine.
Bwoop, bwoop, everyone say hello to Ferdinand and Lorenz! And say goodbye to Ferdinand, because he didn’t allow himself to be recruited pre-timeskip, isn’t recruitable post-timeskip, and then I had Felix kill him with Thoron.
Lorenz can rejoin us, though. He doesn’t count as an enemy commander once he’s been smacked down to 0 hp.
HI, DEDUE. WHY ARE YOU ONLY LEVEL TWENTY. GET IN THE BACKLINES AND DON’T TALK TO ME UNTIL YOU CAN ACTUALLY DAMAGE ANYTHING.
(Seriously, tho, I was waiting for Dedue to come back for two reasons. One: I did that paralogue of his way back in Part One and he did not get to die after all that. Two: Part of Dimitri’s epic slide into “spear-wielding mountain man who runs around killing people with his bare hands” had to do with Dedue “dying” during the timeskip. That jackass cracked a smile for the first time in ingame years thanks to the world’s punchiest bodyguard coming back alive.)
(Fortress Knight is still the worst class.)
I totally didn’t pay any attention to what, if anything, actually separated Master classes from Advanced classes other than my inability to get my hands on Master Seals. So Ashe is a Bow Knight now, while Felix made it to Mortal Savant (wtf is that name and why is the class model basically a samurai) and I spent a very long time level-grinding Sylvain’s Reason skill to make him a Dark Knight. I aimed for Gremory with all my spellcaster girls, but I admit to not really paying attention to specifics.
(I ended up with five Gremories: Annette, Flayn, Mercedes, Lysithea, and Dorothea. Bernadetta became a Bow Knight and Marianne promoted eventually to a Holy Knight. Dorothea also ended up taking Mortal Savant, which she didn’t ever use.)
(Seteth became a Wyvern Lord and Dedue eventually made it to Warrior.)
(Byleth qualified for Mortal Savant and used it precisely no times.)
(It became pretty clear that I just threw Master Seals at people whenever the possibility of promoting them came up.)
(Certification is a weird system.)
I stopped paying a ton of attention to supports around the time I realized that Ferdinand wasn’t going to be recruited no matter what I did in the final month before Shit Went Down.
Then I started paying attention again like two chapters from endgame, because I remembered some A-ranked supports meant that the characters could get paired endings.
I also stopped ignoring Cyril and started using him as an adjutant, though his stats never quite caught up to Seteth (also known as the only instructor unit I ever consistently used).
Cornelia is absolutely a Morlock plant. That is a face she just made, even in flashback.
I wish we could've seen Dimitri’s now-dead uncle, if only because I’m curious. Also, what did Edelgard’s mom/Dimitri’s stepmom look like?
Why is there always a fire level. I saw it earlier thanks to doing Ingrid and Dorothea’s paralogue, but it’s a Fire Emblem stock level type and I hate it.
Okay, yeah, this area totally got nuked. Magitech nukes, but still. It’s still on fire centuries later? Why??
Felix’s dad is a Holy Knight. Why do I have to keep his ass alive on a field when half the enemies are barely Advanced classes, never mind Master classes.
Oh right, because I want the exp for myself.
Rodrigue is possibly the single person here who can make Dimitri’s murder-bender change direction even slightly. He also gets along with his actual son so much worse than that. He’s like Annette’s dad, but with actual verbal confrontations.
There’s Caspar’s not-exactly-forgotten aunt, here to “secretly” avenge her dead brother. Dude, could you say something about that?
Three levels later: I thought we were done with the dad-stabbing.
Felix has officially lost Too Many People in pursuit of keeping Dimitri alive. As has everyone else, frankly.
In other routes, Dimitri absolutely runs his campaign off a cliff.
Here, he turns his life around. More or less. Gotta make the choice to get better.
Time to take back the Kingdom’s capital, like we’ve not been doing for four chapters now. Finally.
Cornelia is absolutely a Morlock plant. This is like the fourth character who supposedly did a complete characterization 180 after a period of being actually useful to other people. Goodbye, civil engineer we never knew.
I think the only infiltrator who did things properly was Solon, but he still dropped his disguise for no good reason early in the game. That operatic level of drama is not a trait that helps him survive a month later. Just goes to show that the Morlocks don’t have more than one type of good judgment at a time, I guess.
I know I’m supposed to avoid the giant doom robots, but...
No, it turns out I can just have Dimitri and Beleth stand in the middle of the killzone and destroy them for fun and profit.
Ding dong the witch is dead.
Welp, time to go save the Alliance, which is getting schooled by the Empire.
HI CLAUDE.
I MISSED YOU AND YOUR FAITH IN HUMANITY. And specifically in Dimitri, for some reason? I think he kinda stabbed your soldiers a lot the last time you two met, but feel free to keep being the Best Character.
Your bodyguards are top-notch, man. One of them got hit with anything over the course of the entire battle.
Your general Judith, however, necessitates Flayn using ALL of her Rescue spells just to keep her alive.
I still had to send Ashe to keep a Falcon Knight off you, but no big.
And also had to send Hilda and Petra to kill the Asshole Reinforcements to nick their stuff.
Dimitri sat there and dodge-tanked all of Arundel’s attempts to kill him until the team killed everybody else. Then Dimitri poked him and he died. Dimitri OHKOs everything except monsters now, and that’s only because they have multiple health meters.
And then Claude fucks off to become king somewhere else. Okay then. It was a nice speech, though.
Killing the Death Knight for fun and profit and now Mercedes is crying. Shit.
Doesn’t this place get vaporized in every other route?
Did killing so many Morlocks by accident lock us out of seeing an intercontinental ballistic missile?
(And it is by accident, because this route is like the only one where the Morlocks are incidentals instead of the main problem, partly due to Dimitri’s tunnel vision and partly just because they don’t drop their disguises upon death.)
Well, I guess it’s time to confront Edelgard.
It’s completely valid of her to look at the guy who was threatening to rip her head off with his bare hands and hang it from the gates of the Empire’s capital a little while ago, and then go “Yeah, diplomacy’s shot.” That Dimitri stopped being quite so all-consumingly homicidal a bit ago is not actually reason to try throwing herself on anyone’s mercy. I feel kinda bad for her, since she’s been pushed into this corner and her ace-in-the-hole allies are basically decapitated, and I stole all her potential friends back during the school phase of the game.
Also, sunk cost fallacy.
Still walloped the entire roster of the second-to-last level, down to killing Hubert with Lysithea. Hilda and Cyril killed all the bird demons.
On the final level, which starts immediately after the previous one, three characters got totally destroyed by the sheer number of mages floating around: Dimitri (whose Avoid finally failed him four times in a row), Hilda (same), and Dedue (thirded). Seteth miraculously survived taking 68 points of damage from a single attack, and then later went on to take Edelgard’s last health bar off with a crit.
Weirdly, Beleth’s Avoid was just fine. Finally let her use the Sublime Sword of the Creator and she killed most of the Gremories that took out Dimitri and Hilda.
And everybody we could save per plot constraints got to live! (Except Ferdinand.)
I’m willing to save him on subsequent routes because killing him made Dorothea sad.
Next time: Lang plays the route that screws over most of these people in service of killing the God-Pope.

Adventures in Fire Emblem: Three Houses pt. 3
Sylvain continues to confirm his status as a grandma fucker.
Uhhh after the way you spoke to Byleth during your C support, Catherine? I think tf NOT.
That’s metal as hell. I love it.
Who gave her the right to be this cute????
Aaaand let’s give a warm welcome to our first successful recruit, Lorenz!
...yeah, there really is no accounting for taste.
This entire support was unbearably pretentious, it’s great.
Well this is awkward, considering I’ve been training Sylvain in axes instead...
:’) I’m so proud of you Ingrid. Best redemption arc in the game.
You know what? I can respect that.
~ said no one who was actually fine, ever.
Yeah don’t worry guys he’s fine!
Could this outburst possibly be related to his recent headaches...? I guess this is the “unacceptable” dark side Dimitri warned us about.
Why hello sir! What are you doing here?
Honestly, I wasn’t really expecting this twist.
They spoiled it by having Jeritza show up right after though. Just rub salt in the wound, why don’t you?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
I’d like to just take a moment and say that I actually really enjoy Sothis’ character. I thought she’d be the annoying fanservice-y loli type but I was wrong. Also, her voice acting and dialogue style is quite nice! Really gives off the impression of someone older and wiser than she appears.
That’s not ominous at all.
Ahh, they really hit you hard with that grey morality huh :(
[smiles I want to protect]
I love this ocean metaphor for Byleth, it’s a really nice bit of characterization.
Very convincing :P Totally not an immortal or anything, nope, not at all.
T H A T ‘ S G A Y A N N E T T E
Literally almost chose him because of this line, but my desire to win overruled my desire to be petty.
Well screw you too I guess :(
Alright then, you can go ahead and stay with the Golden Deer. Insinuating that Byleth doesn’t appreciate her dad enough... and to think I wanted to recruit you.
That’s the spirit!!!! God I love Shamir...
Introducing our second recruit, Dorothea!! Just in time for the dance competition, as well ;)
Honestly I’d like to recruit more of the Black Eagles, to spare them their fate when I inevitably kick Edelgard’s ass, but I’m afraid I started too late.
Byleth, watching Felix and his dad fight:
I knew there was a reason I took you in, Lorenz!
Also he’s a beast on the battlefield. No regrets, even WITH the awful bowl cut. At least his hair improves post time skip.
Oh, Cyril, sweetie...
Heck yeah we did it!!
I like to imagine Edelgard fuming after the Blue Lions stole her best dancer from right under her nose like a week before the competition, lol.
That’s... embarrassingly relatable.
Also a huge mood.
CLAUDE??? lol. That seems kinda out of left field, considering they almost never interact... but anyway.
Professor Byleth said Bi Rights!!!
oh shit oh fuck. this can’t be good
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

AM Chapter 19
So happy that AM has detoured from the path VW/SS is following because that means I get to play a different map!
Possible spoilers for all routes up until ch 19 and SS ch 18 below.
Pre-Battle
So excited for this chapter - because two lords are actually going to work together. It's the first time and looking like the only time based on what's happened in other routes.
Hey, Claude, long time, no see.
Yeah, the Kingdom and Alliance Army teaming up! Why didn't this happen any sooner?
JUDITH! Cool to see her here.
Claude is so sure his city won't fall lamo. That's very Claude.
So are those "wounds" from Gondor why I won't get to use Claude AND Dimitri.
Claude believes in Dimitri (and Byleth) 😭
Ingrid's a Judith fangirl. My too, Ingrid.
Wow, Claude set himself up as bait to get the enemy inside all based on how much he trusted Dimitri and Byleth? That's more of a mastermind scheme than he's pulled in his own route.
Ok, guys, I'm seeing why there's a Claude/Dimitri crowd lamo.
OMG it's HILDA! And she'd defending Claude 😭😭😭 How quickly my heart switches from Dimitri/Claude to Hilda/Claude lol.
Battle
Arundel doesn't really add much to the sad state of elder men from the Empire, does he?
By "that idiot," does he mean Cornelia? He can't mean Fleche.
Claude calling us late while Dimitri is all serious. Yeah, I can see the appeal of shipping them together lol.
Dude, Hilda just crit the first (and second) dude who attacked her. What a champ.
If Hilda dies, does she die for good? I don't think I want to test that theory and will just blitz this map. Which is easy with the Blue Lions in part thanks to Dimitri just being absurd. They're also surprisingly critical happy. Not that I'm complaining.
You know, the last time I was here, I was invading and killing Claude and Hilda instead of defending them. This feels so much better.
Arundel's talking mad shit for a man who's army got decimated in like three turns (other than that little corner he's hiding in, but Dimitri's right there so).
Time for Dimitri vs Arundel dialogue.
I forgot that was his uncle. Poor guy can't catch a break (Dimitri, not Arundel, fuck Arundel).
Dimitri telling Arundel he's rather calm for someone in his position (FYI, all his soldiers are dead).
Why does Arundel want him and Edelgard to kill each other? He really didn't answer the question about what happened lol.
Man, this was way too short. The other routes took me like 10-15 rounds. This one got cleared in 5.
I protected Hilda and Judith! So they gave me presents. Feels good. Feels so good compared to slaughtering Judith while she tries to retreat and killing Hilda for protecting Claude.
Post-Battle
This is legit the only route so far were all three lords get to do something after the time skip except die.
It's nice seeing two lords just talk without wanting to kill each other. Makes me wish we got more of this. But, hey, at least it's Dimitri and Claude who got the chance too.
Claude calling Dimitri and Byleth soft-hearted. He's not wrong.
I bet Dimitri's so embarrassed right now, Claude saying he knew Dimitri would set his own goals aside to help Claude and Byleth just agreeing.
Claude really gambled on Dimitri lol.
Oh, we get Claude's weapon! That's pretty cool. He gave us a present. Edelgard didn't get one.
Why is the Alliance gone? Wait, they just decided to join Dimitri? Did Claude just dump the Alliance in Dimitri's lap?
😂😂😂😂😂 Poor Dimitri. All he ever wanted was to be a good king and revenge and now he's the leader of the Alliance too lamo.
I'm know it's not going to happen, but how banger if I now got to use Claude too.
Yeah, that's what I figured. Claude's leaving.
Oh, now we get to go rescue Rhea.
Yessss promise to meet again. Though I'm sure that's after the game is over. Still, feels good knowing Claude and Dimitri parted on such good terms. Seems like it's a good sign for the future. And the Alliance just willingly joined the Kingdom too.
Oh, God, Felix, never change. Demanding Dimitri tell the truth. Oh, about Edelgard being his step-sister. And Dimitri's telling them about it.
Ugh, how can he talk about his step-mother so calmly? Do we know if she caused Duscur? I really don't want her to have done that for Dimitri's sake, but given how he's this game's punching bag . . .
Glad Rodrigue knew about Patricia. That means Lambert really trusted Rodrigue.
Mercedes is always so compassionate. I love her so much.
Annette - "I feel the idea of fighting family is just about the worst thing ever." Also Annette, can get recruited to Crimson Flower (I'm betting she gets to fight Gilbert at least once, right?)
OMG Sylvain remembered that dagger 😂😂😂 I love how casual Dimitri and Sylvain are with each other in general. It's nice since he's got so many strained relationships, but with Sylvain it's always been pretty easy between those two.
I love how Felix is concerned that Dimitri can't bring himself to kill Edelgard. What a far cry from the guy who didn't think Dimitri deserved to walk on two legs.
Oh, great, another lord willing to work with Edelgard. $10 says she refuses to work with Dimitri too.
Ashe talking about killing family 😭
Wait, though, are we actually going to talk with Edelgard? Is this like . . . diplomacy? In my Fire Emblem? Just Dimitri things I guess.
It's a waste of breath though. Edelgard has no interest in working with Claude or Dimitri.
Edelgard really just takes Ls after she wins before the time skip.
Wait, what is Edelgard planning? "There is no other way," um except there is. You could just, not, take over Fodlan and kill everyone who won't let you stomp all over them.
You know what? I noticed something. Edelgard lied to all the Black Eagles (sans Hubert) about that attack from the evil death cult group (I refuse to call them "those who slither in the dark"). Claude got pressured to come clean about his origins to the Golden Deer, but didn't tell them. He didn't lie, but he didn't tell them about him. Dimitri, though, opened right up to the Blue Lions about him and Edelgard. It's funny that all three get scenes like this, where there's pressure on the lord to reveal something and Edelgard lies, Claude withholds, and Dimitri tells everyone the truth. Blue Lions really feel like a family.
New Chapter
This one is still different from VW and SS now.
We get a different picture too!
So now we go kill the Death Knight - again - Mercedes is gonna be big sad though. Maybe I'll tea time her to try and cheer her up.
So everyone is uniting under Dimitri now. Let's go.
So the next chapter is this fort with the Death Knight there?
Poor Mercie is sad though. I don't like her being sad.

Verdant Wind: Chapter 17
First off, it's weird only doing two routes this time, since SS skips over this chapter, and I'm not going back to CF until all the final chapters are ready.
Below's all my thoughts about VW's take on Gronder Field. 😭I was not ready. OMG. How could you do this to me?
Pre-Battle:
Oh dear, God, no, Hilda. Is this Fog of War?
I picked "I'm worried" for Byleth, but it's not for the reasons Claude thinks. It's because I know Dimitri's coming (it's clearly setting up Battle of Eagle and Lion Round 2), and I'm betting he's not doing so hot.
Oh, shit, yep, here he is. I'm not ready for this guys.
It wouldn't make sense to "kill" Dimitri, just to bring him back and kill him for real a second later though.
I'm clinging to that. But I still don't feel good.
It is kind of pathetic that Dimitri has a more interesting plot in VW than Claude so far.
Oh, crap, everyone's here. Mercedes, Dedue, and Bernie. Do I have to kill them? I'm going to avoid killing whoever I can. So much for "kill 'em all - I am pathetic. Except Hubert lol. I love the guy, but I don't feel bad taking him out.
OK - but like Dedue and Mercie? They are too precious to have fun with "kill em all." And Bernie was so sweet after Jeralt's death that I feel bad.
At the same time . . . Killing them all . . . could be fun.
But Dedue and Mercie 😭And then I feel bad excluding Bernie.
I wonder if my dancer!Felix can fight Dimitri. I'll make sure Claude fights both lords, but I'm curious to see if Felix and Dimitri get unique dialogue.
What if I said - I don't want to defeat Dimitri - but the game said - defeat all enemy commanders 😭
Ohh - cut scene! God, it's been forever.
Edelgard fire bombing everyone. Dimitri getting revenge for the dead. Nothing's changed.
Seriously, Edelgard? She's like "we were classmates, but not today" and looks so sad. Like, girl, you caused all this.
I'm kind of annoyed at how she always feels so sorry for herself, not going to lie. I don't mind the characterization, but just it's always so focused on her and never her victims. But I feel this is my annoyance with CF bleeding through.
Which makes me wonder how I'd feel about her if I played this game one route after the next.
"Kill every last one of them!" - Chris Hackeny is a gem.
Imagine how shocking that is if you didn't play AM. I'd probably quit right there and see wtf happened, since all the Kingdom drama + Dimitri's Disney death + mysterious reappearance with a totally new attitude and sexy eyepatch would just be too much.
I feel so bad for Claude though. I've spent more time talking about Edelgard and Dimitri than him. But they both get such interesting in-character stuff, and he's like "man this class reunion sucks." Only Byleth got less stuff.
OK - Edelgard got some points back with her chaotic warfare and smarts trying to block the Kingdom and Alliance.
Battle Thoughts:
I've got a million fliers on this team, and Bernie's range is just too long. I think I'm going to just have to kill her.
Eh, whatever. Let's kill them all.
Hubert doesn't think much of my strategy.
Dimitri's not holding back here. It makes it really clear how far he's actually come in AM seeing him in VW like this.
Lysithea nuked Dedue and he . . . retreated? Does Dedue get to live? 😭😭😭
Dimitri's "Shut up and retreat. You must live, Dedue." after Dedue insists on fighting 😭😭😭Again - even at his absolute worst, Dimitri always gives Dedue special treatment.
HOLY SHIT - Edelgard just lit Bernie on fire. Oh my God. Guess that means I'm killing her :(
LAMO - Claude crit Edelgard. Kinda deserves it after that.
Now to have him (and Felix) fight Dimitri. If they can. Apparently Dimitri can one-shot Ignatz (that was one use of Divine Pulse).
Can anybody explain why Dimitri gets the "effective against" warning against literally every unit??
It's too bad Dimitri and Claude don't just team up. The situation feels kinda forced, but it makes sense given Dimitri's state of mind. Still feels like the game is just forcing "no two lords for you!"
WTF is this? Dimitri's even got effectiveness against an infantry dancer.
So Dimitri told Felix he's not worthy and to get out of his sight. Then Felix crit Dimitri and told HIM to get out of HIS sight. No unique dialogue though. 😭😭
OK guys, I spared Mercie. I . . . just couldn't. Dedue got nuked but retreated? And Bernie got set on fire AND had a droppable Brave Bow. Sorry.
So . . . Did Dimitri retreat or die?
Post Battle Thoughts:
Oh, shit. Hilda's "I saw him" doesn't sound good.
Well that sucks.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
They really brought Dimitri back to life, only to kill him off two seconds later. It might be my Dimitri bias coming through, but that seems . . . kinda pointless tbh.
At least he's getting sympathetic treatment 😭😭😭
Dedue lived and he's all alone 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Why is it that Kingdom characters seem like they're getting a better story than poor Claude?
Lysithea's story is more interesting than Claude's 😭😭😭 Poor girl had it rough. Fuck the Empire.
Aww, Lorenz is the first one who said he'd follow Claude.
I love how on VW, Leonie and Raphael realize that the Empire's actions are a threat to the things they want to protect, but in CF they'll just toss that all into the wind because professor power.
Aww, Marianne's "I'll fight too." 😊😊😊I needed that after the drama with Dimitri and Dedue.
Why do we never get to see Holst??
Oh - so that's why Lysithea held off on her A-Support. It was waiting for that stuff with the mages.
Judith is so hot. I'm still mad I can't use her in battle.
All I need to take Fort Merceus is Dimitri - oh wait.
Is this the best the game could come up with for Claude's "schemes?" They dress up as Imperial soldiers and just walk in?
VW's tone feels too lighthearted for this game (esp after Dimitri 😭😭😭) , but at the same time it's a nice breather.

Ooh... How about we take a page out of one of your Leokumi oneshots? You know, the one where colleges are super hard to get into for omegas? Felix wanted to get into the same college as Sylvain, and that college was actually relatively inclusive for omegas, not requiring an alpha's permission for them, but still had some discrimination and harassment happening. Sylvain, having seen some of that stuff happen around him, was initially pretty uneasy about Felix going there, which lead to an argument between them. He relented eventually and the application was sent. Unfortunately Daddy Gautier somehow got wind of this and threw his influence around to get it rejected, while making sure only the name "Gautier" is leaked. Felix finds out and is furious, because he assumes it was Sylvain, leading to the breakup. This would both explain Felix's anger and him still wanting to prove something to him, by showing both how competent and hot he is now.
Oooooh now there’s an idea!
I think this works best if there was like, some controlling behavior from Sylvain when they were initially together. I mean nothing too crazy, but he was pretty overprotective of Felix when they dated and they were both young and dumb so he could be kind of an ass about it, and Felix kind of started resenting him for it. So the application thing is totally believable and ended up as the final straw for him.
Their breakup kind of like. Imploded their friend group, too. I think Ingrid would have been pretty firmly on Felix’s side (though it wouldn’t completely end her friendship with Sylvain, it would come damn close), and Dimitri was kind of caught between them (because on one hand he doesn’t believe Sylvain would go that far, and he believes him when he says he didn’t do this, but at the same time Felix’s future still did get fucked up and he thinks it’s valid for him to be mad).
Suddenly they can’t do anything all as a group anymore because Felix can’t stand to be in the same room as Sylvain (which, tbf, totally valid given he thought Sylvain blew up his entire future). Maybe it even prevented him from going to college straight away and he had to take a gap year, just to add into the resentment. Luckily at this point Sylvain is in college and only comes home every so often, so Dimitri and Ingrid don’t have to keep constantly separating them so Felix doesn’t kill Sylvain.
Meanwhile Sylvain... I think he probably took it pretty hard, and his desperation to explain himself and get Felix back just upset Felix even more and drove the wedge further between them. I mean there was probably a week or two where he was calling Felix fifteen times a day and filling up his voice mail with desperate messages (which of course he deleted without even listening to them) before Dimitri had to pull Sylvain aside and tell him to just let it go, whatever happened there’s just no way Felix is going to let him try to fix it.
As soon as Felix is able he changes his number and moves away from home, and tells no one but his family and Dimitri and Ingrid where he’s gone.
I think sometime between their falling out and their reunion Sylvain finds evidence of what his dad did. But by that point it’s been several years and Felix has moved away to god knows where and changed his number (and I don’t think he was ever one for social media so Sylvain couldn’t really track him down). Sylvain might try to talk to Rodrigue about what he found, but Rodrigue is not exactly thrilled with Sylvain and brushes him off.
So faced with the fact that he really can’t fix this, Sylvain drops contact with his parents as soon as they’re done funding his education and eventually picks up a job teaching. Oh Daddy Gautier still tries, of course, and Sylvain might humor his attempts at contact a little, but their relationship is Done.
And oh my god this is getting long but he 100% absolutely never got over Felix. Ever. Those students he fucked? Squint and he can pretend. Never dated, never even attempted to, really. All his “relationships” (if you could call them that) were just hookups. Maybe he had a FWB or two, but absolutely never anything romantic.
When Felix shows up to his class the students that know Professor Sylvain immediately joke that he’s “just his type” (and boy they do not know how right they are about that) and they joke that if he plays his cards right he might end up in Professor Gautier’s bed.
Sylvain, of course, still has the evidence he found off his dad somewhere on a flash drive, so immediately after the first day of class he ignores all of the students coming up to talk to him and runs back to his office to print it all off. Which looks a hell of a lot like he’s running away from him.
Felix is fucking livid, of course. He probably wound up following Sylvain back to his office after class to chew him out, then once that was done he was going to head straight to the registrar to demand a different professor for the course. So he storms in, looking all angry and beautiful (because let’s be real he dressed nice for the first day, too, because he saw Gautier on his schedule and just the shape of the name made him want to look good to stick it to the professor that dared share a last name with that asshole), and Sylvain has to slam the door shut behind him and beg him to just listen for two seconds before tearing him a new asshole.
To be clear though, Felix initially thinks he’s full of shit. Maybe that he even doctored the evidence. It takes awhile for him to come around. He probably talks to Dimitri about it, who rightly points out... why would Sylvain make fake evidence? Up until Felix showed up in his class he never expected to see him again, and he had absolutely no time to make it between class and when Felix confronted him in his office, so why would he have prepared that beforehand?
Also let’s just say Felix joined this class last minute, so while Sylvain had access to a class roster, Felix wasn’t on it until the day of so there’s no way he would have seen his name ahead of time.

Lang Plays Fire Emblem: Three Houses
So a while ago I said I was planning on playing the story routes in this order: Blue Lions, Black Eagles, Church of Seiros, and then Golden Deer.
The Golden Deer made a liar out of me.
So, here’s an approximation of What Happened During Verdant Wind.
So many spoilers below the cut, you guys. I do a lot of route comparisons.
Okay, I’ve been staring at the “which house do you want” selection screen for an embarrassing amount of time.
This shouldn’t be hard. I had a plan.
But no.
I clicked the Golden Deer, just like that. What the fuck, Claude. I blame you.
Immediately upon talking to this rop of students again, I can feel the difference in the social group from what the Lions were like. The latter were really a bunch of noble kids around their prince, and they felt really tight-knit. Classic Fire Emblem starter crew.
The Golden Deer is the fucking Scooby Gang.
First impressions of individuals:
Raphael, thank goodness, is the one character who absolutely has his shit in order. Sure, he’s bad at book work and thinks everything comes down to MUSCLES, but all of his emotional issues are handled by the time he arrives at Garreg Mach. He’s the brightest of sunshines.
Ignatz needs some more confidence in his art, and also I want to see his painting of Seiros. Now, if only both of his offensive stats and growths weren’t incredibly bad.
I was so close to making him my dancer. Just because he sure as hell wasn’t gonna be useful anywhere else.
Lorenz! I don’t like him. His haircut is a monstrosity.
Leonie! We are going. To be. Besties. Even though the timing of your support conversations are incredibly bad.
Marianne no please don’t be sad everyone loves you
Hilda is the greatest enabler I have ever seen. By which I mean she enables other people to do all her work for her.
Lysithea is going to have the last word with God. And especially he Death Knight.
And finally Claude! Teamwork makes the dream work, so obviously meme work does the same.
I’m sorry.
PRE-TIMESKIP
Mock battle! Marianne’s great and I love her and also the only healer oh god.
OKAY. I have access to New Game+ bonuses. What do I do first?
Immediately crank the Professor Level stat to max to avoid ever having to run short of activity points again.
Next, raise all skills I can’t easily get to at least Rank D+. HEAVY ARMOR IN PARTICULAR.
Third: Boost supports with people whose support ranks are an absolute pain in the ass to earn. Lookin’ at you, Rhea.
Also, put glasses on Byleth (named “Yuri” for this playthrough). Glasses are the bomb. I am the evil genius.
LEVEL GRINDING TIME.
It’s a lot harder with Blacksmith access being story-locked, but I can do this!
As a direct result, every single battle after this point is a complete curbstomp in my favor. Because the grind don’t stop.
I broke a lot more weapons than last time, though.
I will befriend Leonie and Ferdinand if it’s the last fucking thing I do. I will befriend everyone, and I will not get timeskip-locked out of supports! >:(
Ferdinand was my first recruit. Oh dear.
Okay, there are like five born cavaliers in this game. Leonie, Ferdinand, Lorenz, Sylvain, and I guess Dimitri if you’re on the right route.
Last time, Sylvain was a great paladin and a decent Dark Knight before he started getting one- or two-stat level ups for like thirty levels. Similarly, Dimitri was great until all his ultra-secret-awesome promotions didn’t use a fucking horse.
Contrast Leonie who, despite sitting out 99% of the game out of spite from me getting locked out of her support chain, went to endgame with a ten-level deficit and still rocked.
Ferdinand didn’t count since I failed to recruit him last time and he died. These two facts are directly related.
I didn’t use Lorenz at all; I recruited him to keep from having to kill him later.
This time, Lorenz straight-up sucks, Sylvain did the terrible level dance for like the entire game, and Dimitri’s not recruitable.
Contrast, again, Leonie. Her support chain with the player character is hot garbage, but she plowed through most of the game as a mainstay of my team and made it to Bow Knight first out of anyone.
Bernadetta and Ashe as Bow Knights don’t even come close to being as durable as she is, except for Ashe’s absolutely bananas Resistance. 29?! WHY?!
And Ferdinand is also awesome. His only real weak point is Resistance, but he doesn’t need it. He dodge-tanks everything, is faster than Leonie, and has two Saints’ relics he unknowingly stole from Seteth.
He still talks in MLA format, though.
I started putting off recruiting people so I wouldn’t have to level-grind them up to par with the rest of my team.
But if these people wanna join, of course I’m saying yes.
Lord Lonato’s rebellion and Miklan yoinking the Lance of Ruin feel way less relevant on a Golden Deer playthrough than on a Blue Lions one. None of the Herd really know who the hell these people are.
I say that despite having already recruited Sylvain for this playthrough and deploying him in the relevant level. He wasn’t treated as there by the game’s preamble cutscenes.
At least the Holy Mausoleum stuff feels more...handled? Claude actually asks questions about rebellion and about the “assassination plot,” where Dimitri didn’t really.
OKAY SO there’s this whole plot thing where Flayn goes missing for a month. With the Blue Lions, this is handled like a manhunt. Dimitri’s seriousness about the issue rubs off on everyone except Sylvain, and Felix actually correctly identifies the culprit almost instantly. He doesn’t know he’s done it, though, because basically everyone is just throwing out accusations. Manuela is the real MVP.
CONTRAST THE DEER. The very first meeting reads like a Scooby Doo episode, when they’re piling up clues and throwing out suggestions like the gang of goofball teenagers they are. Claude’s got this group running like Persona 4′s Investigation Team. None of them are jaded or frantic, they’re just doing this.
Why did Rhea entrust the investigation to a herd of teenagers.
Anyway, the rest proceeds as usual.
I don’t know why the game tries to drop the same set of hints for each route. “OoooowoooooOOOOoooo, your house leader might be the FLAME EMPEROR.”
The Flame Emperor wears heels. And is still too short to be either Claude or Dimitri. Especially Dimitri. Who the fuck let this kid get so tall.
The only real result of all this bullshit is that my wyvern-riding sniper of doom is not available during the first map where Yuri personally beat the Death Knight into the ground.
Which, by the by, was hilariously cathartic.
It doesn’t exactly matter, since the only unit who can make real use of the Dark Mage and Dark Bishop classes is unrecruitable, but bragging rights.
Remire Village’s drama is about as bad while playing as the Golden Deer. One of the foreshadowing cutscenes, though is excellent:
Claude actually finds a book that depicts The Immaculate One before its debut, only to have it confiscated by Seteth and learn that it wasn’t a library book at all; it belonged to “Tomas.” Like, all of his suspicions--which he shares with the player--start lining up. Censorship! Monsters! Sword of the Creator! What the hell is going on here??
Dimitri’s version of the cutscene involves him being caught investigating Lord Arundel by the player and Sothis. Which--since his route doesn’t meaningfully deal with the Morlocks faction aside from steamrolling them as incidental opponents--seems kinda useless.
Kicked the Death Knight into submission again out of spite.
Sylvain was useful! Mostly because I had him sit there and distract the incidentals while Claude and Lysithea cleaned house, but still!
Claude is the only lord character who seems to understand that the transforming Morlock faction probably needs to be taken more seriously. For the remainder of Part One, no one does so.
Rhea you’ve got some ‘splainin to do.
Marianne’s my team’s dancer this time. She’s a sweetheart. She seemed happy to be asked and to pursue the lessons, and being able to use Physic is a good trait in someone who’s nearly always going to be waaaaay behind the rest of the group.
Dad-stabbing happened.
Again.
Boop boop Solon’s dead.
Again.
Dear diary: I learned the definition of irony and set the Flame Emperor on fire.
I kid.
But Claude took her out in one completely overpowered shot, because crits are a thing, Flame Emperor class skills don’t reduce damage enough to survive it, and his Dex stat is through the fucking roof. And he was on a wyvern at the time because fuck it, why not.
Claude’s reaction to all of this is a minor letdown compared to the fully-rendered cutscene in the last route.
This would become something of a trend--taking out OP bosses with unexpected critical hits.
I didn’t expect to like Lorenz and now I do. How.
This is hilarious simply because he seems to be the only character that Mercedes hates. What the fuck, man.
Once again, Edelgard invades! Once again, I drop someone unexpected on her head!
Not really. It was Yuri.
Yuri does the timeskip shuffle and we’ll see everyone again after a nap.
FIVE YEARS LATER.
Aw, Claude was waiting for Yuri to show up. Adorable.
The post-meetup fight is actually harder than it was in the BL route, despite excessive level-grinding. This is due to three factors:
Claude is automatically on a wyvern, meaning that he has inherent class vulnerability to archers on a map with at least five of them. And less range than they did, for some fucking reason.
Lorenz and Ignatz started out on the same corner of the map and both of them are shitty offensive units who could barely kill a mage between them. (Neither of Ignatz’s offensive stats cracked 20 for another thirteen levels.)
I don’t have Ashe and his personal skill Locktouch, and nobody started with a Chest Key or Door Key, which meant I had to keep various enemies alive long enough to steal all of their stuff. And the enemy item drops came up one short of the number of chests on the map. I want my stuff, dammit.
LET’S MAKE A SCENE.
Randolph, as a boss in Verdant Wind, did not get any better at figuring out when he’s outmatched. Therefore, I killed him with Raphael again.
At least he straight-up died this time.
Claude didn’t even get to set the damn place on fire.
Ingrid is turning out to be way better of a unit this time than she was last time. She’s a little slower, but a lot stronger.
FELIX, WHERE THE FUCK WAS ALL THIS STRENGTH HIDING LAST TIME. YOU’RE TEN POINTS AHEAD OF THE GUY WHO HAS STORY-BASED SUPER STRENGTH.
AND SPEED.
Iiiiiiiiit’s JUDITH!
She only shows up on one map in the entire Azure Moon route, and that’s a damn shame. She’s so cool in Verdant Wind.
A lord-class character who isn’t also a Lord! WOO!
Also her spies are better than anybody’s apparently.
I am choosing to believe that because Ingrid’s family is related to Judith’s, her badassery in this route is the direct result of meeting her distant cousin and absorbing badass radiation.
There’s something funny about having to pull one over on Lorenz’s dad to get anything done. The Great Bridge falls not to power, but Claude baiting Count Gloucester’s entire army to be somewhere else. (FEAR THE DEER.)
As a result, Ladislava dies alone. (As opposed to taking Ferdinand with her due to plot shenanigans.)
Lysithea and Ferdinand’s paralogue was really quite sad, for all that the only named guy who died was deeply unsympathetic. Ferdinand’s dad was an asshole, but he wasn’t the asshole for this particular scenario, and now both of his parents are gone. :(
Felix...hasn’t heard from his dad in a while. Worrying.
Oh, and Caspar’s uncle is still dead, in case we were keeping track of that.
Dorothea’s happier with Ferdinand alive. She did an impression of the Gatekeeper. :3
Gronder Field! FUCK.
I delayed playing this chapter for two solid days because I already knew what was gonna happen. Specifically: Edelgard gets injured and evacuated, and Dimitri drops of exhaustion just in time to get run through like ten times by the Emperor’s rearguard.
I eventually got my shit together enough to do the thing.
Marianne, Raphael, and Ferdinand went after the Kingdom army first. Leonie and Felix hung back and then reinforced them after taking out the archer on the central hill.
Claude killed everyone in the center of the map, which meant Edelgard set the entire hill on fire and if Bernadetta had not been recruited she would’ve burned to death there on the spot.
Ahem.
I sent Yuri to clear the entire left side of the map by herself.
She succeeded.
Raphael KO’d Dimitri with a luck Gauntlet crit, got blasted down to half health by a Warlock, then plunked ineffectually at Dedue until Marianne used her Levin Sword to sort him out.
Ferdinand killed everyone else on that side of the map.
Claude once again got the kill on Edelgard with a lucky crit, after Yuri had killed everyone else (up to and including the Demonic Beasts) single-handedly.
And then the plot moved on. Hilda’s account of Dimitri’s death was awful, Dedue’s reaction was worse, and off we go to punch Edelgard’s teeth in.
Again.
Annette’s dad is probably dead now.
Felix’s, too.
(I THOUGHT WE WERE DONE WITH THE DAD-STABBING.)
FOOOOOORT MERCEUS.
No matter how many times I think about it, Claude’s Almyran army reinforcements only make so much sense. How the hell and fuck did he manage to sneak an entire foreign army across a whole country to help with one battle?
But hey, they’re here, and Claude almost admitted the reason why he could do that. And the arrow greeting between him and Nader was cool.
(Spoiler: On top of being the Alliance’s leader, he’s also the crown prince of Almyra!)
The Death Knight had the gall to run from my army.
Yuri punched his ticket for the third time, which was not the charm.
And then Fort Merceus took an intercontinental ballistic missile and suddenly defeating the fort’s garrison feels a lot less triumphant.
Spot the miscolored eyes in this cutscene!
Welp. Fuck it, we’re off to Enbarr. Time to also punch Hubert this time! What a change of pace.
Eyyy, it’s the Enbarr map. I totally forgot to bring Seteth and Flayn along to check out the opera house, despite a whole bunch of characters talking about how they totally wanted to check that place out at some point. No room for deadweights in a map that has SO MANY ARCHERS.
Managed to get the special dialogue between Ferdinand and Hubert, and now I’m sad again.
Killed Hubert with Claude.
And because this is a two-part map, we immediately run off to chase down Edelgard. Due to the player army not doing a really weird 180 in the middle of the plot to kick Cornelia out of Fhirdiad, she didn’t have time to turn into a giant demonic thing! She just has WAY TOO MANY MAGES.
Strategy: Forget what Door Keys are, split the team by Avoid rating, and go to town.
Claude nearly died thanks to a critical mass of Gremories and Mortal Savants (and still, what the fuck is that name), but Dedue-as-guest-character didn’t, so I count that as a win! His defense was so high that the Giant Demonic Beast couldn’t even scratch him.
Claude, Petra, and Ingrid all having Alert Stance as a skill means dodge-tanking is hilariously easy.
Also, Ingrid was supposed to just take a chunk out of Edelgard’s HP bar for the final assault and ended up crit-killing her on the first attack. With a bog-standard silver lance.
Weird as the situation turned out, I guess that means one of Dimitri’s friends really did avenge him after saying they would. Even if Dedue was the only one who had a special cutscene about it.
We rescued Rhea! And the characters being happy about it doesn’t mean I’m happy about it. I want answers, same as Claude, and being forced to RP Yuri being oh so worried about Rhea’s safety felt incredibly disingenuous.
Claude actually yells at her over the “...” she seems to think is an explanation. THE TIME FOR SECRETS IS PAST.
WHY DID ALL THIS SHIT HAPPEN.
WE’VE BEEN AT WAR FOR FIVE YEARS.
A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE DIED HORRIBLY FOR BASICALLY NOTHING.
Incidentally, this is why I didn’t end up playing Edelgard’s route as planned. Her logic for kicking two other sovereign countries in the balls felt incredibly self-centered.
At least Catherine’s happy. Same with Alois and the rest of the Church crew.
They are soon going to be not as happy.
I’m filling out the ENTIRE support log before endgame. I have absolutely no idea what characters are going to end up together as a direct result.
The last conversation? Seteth and Manuela’s A+ support!
Because so many of the support conversations are romantic at A/A+ level, I guess we’ve managed to turn this ragtag army into a polyarmory.
Oh boy, Thales sure is a sore loser.
I say, as though I didn’t kill EVERYONE he knew over the course of an hour and also split his skull open under Seteth’s axe. His racism would have keeled his ass over before death set in.
That sure is a ICBM.
GOD DAMMIT RHEA, THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A Q&A SESSION AFTER THIS.
WHY DOES EVERYONE WHOSE JOB IS EXPOSITION UP AND DIE.
Meanwhile: THE UBER-DEAD PEOPLE.
Claude, your route is batshit. What is this genre anymore?!
I wanna point out that, despite seeing Rhea/Seiros do the dragon thing, the player character never told Claude what the fuck that was about. I feel like one of the first things I would have done after the class reunion would be going, “By the by, did anyone else notice the fucking dragon?!” WHO IS ALSO THE POPE???
Bah.
ANYWAY. Looooong-overdue exposition time!
I notice that Rhea didn’t out Seteth or Flayn, which was nice of her.
Claude, she can turn into a fucking dragon. I don’t think immortality is that far from being plausible.
GOD DAMMIT NEMESIS, CAN YOU FUCK OFF FOR TEN MORE MINUTES.
Uuuuuuugh fine, fuck everything, I’m putting your head on a pike.
CLAUDE, THE SWORD OF THE CREATOR LOOKS LIKE A SPINE.
OF COURSE IT’S MADE OF BONES. A BUNCH OF THE HEROES’ RELICS MOVE ON THEIR OWN!
The frantic music is not helping.
Time to kill a bandit king.
“My flabber is completely gasted by now.” Okay, that made me laugh.
Nemesis’s boss mechanic is pretty neat. To kill him at all, you need to kill all of the minibosses in the level and take down his friendship-based-plot-armor.
Or it would be, if I didn’t already make a habit of steamrolling everyone else on the field before tackling the boss at the end.
CUTSCENE.
Cutscene lesson: “Fuck honor duels.” It’s time for CHAIN SWORD LIMBO.
Claude, your bow shoots LASERS. SINCE WHEN.
Also getting kicked across the field by a dude twice his size didn’t seem to actually affect his mood much.
Awww, Yuri smiles now. Adorable. :D
AND THAT’S A WRAP.
Pairings: Yuri/Sothis (mostly to get them out of the way and see what everyone else would do), Claude/Petra, Raphael/Marianne, Catherine/Shamir, Lorenz/Mercedes, Ashe/Annette, Felix/Sylvain (bad end; the former straight up disappears), Seteth & Flayn wander off, Manuela/Dorothea, Lysithea/Linhardt (again), Leonie/Ignatz, Ferdinand/Bernadetta, Caspar/Hilda, and a couple of people are alone. Cyril gets to actually be a student after the story’s done, though!
Whew, that was fun. Gonna mix up the pairs a bit next time I play through the endgame and see what happens.
