just a little feral noire

i think tharja should have been more important to awakening’s story. not only is she plegian and so could have provided a plegian perspective on the constant ylisse-plegia back-and-forth to help make things feel less one-sided (we aren’t given this until the second drama cd and it has to come from GAIUS, who is not plegian), but she’s also the game’s second-best example after robin of “you are not what the future dictates you to be,” one of the game’s main themes. i challenge my fate etc etc. what do i mean by this? well

first off personally, i tend to shelve the entire noire-dad support chain because it 1. sucks and 2. contradicts several other chains — ex. ricken + tharja A, where she acknowledges people don’t like to have hexes tested upon them and so has ricken test things on Her, her henry, gregor, & virion chains, where she can’t hex them at all, her frederick chain where she PROMISES to not hex him any more — and it also just doesn’t make sense with others, like her dynamics with lon’qu and libra, which are two of her most serious support chains. why would she do that to them. or considering how she is with robin, why would she hex him or her kids with him. she’s ALSO mentioned to be good with kids in her libra paired ending, making her hexing children more puzzling, and noire’s blood-and-thunder thing is also not actually caused by tharja hexing her like people think. so they wrote this in to make child abuse a teehee gag that contradicts a lot of tharja’s character setup and i just ignore it and that’s not what i’m referring to here. (note: her supports with noire mention to her she’s been tested HERSELF by her family since birth, which she thought was normal, but that same chain reveals her future self also kept noire away from dabbling in dark magic at all so it very much doesn’t make sense why she would expose her to it by testing it on her anyway). HOWEVER,

tharja is very still much a neglectful parent in the bad future and that’s her main issue. after her spouse dies she dedicates everything to getting revenge for him and tracking down the risen that killed him and neglects her daughter in the process. for the sake of getting revenge on a corpse. awakening tharja’s main thing is realising that by pushing her child away in the future she helped ruin her. noire spent most of her life doubting her mother loved her because of how she was pushed away after a certain point until tharja told her directly “i’m sure she did because she kept you away from curses to protect you. and i love you.” she’s one of the game’s biggest examples of learning what not to do and i wish she had more focus because that’s like. one of the main themes of the game <- biased tharja fan. thank you for listening

My cosplay of Noire from Fire Emblem. I don’t wear her to cons anymore but she’s the only in tact FE cosplay I have left.

Your Daughters Wedding with your one true Love (Closed RP with @lewdest-mansion)

It has been a couple weeks since Grima was defeated and while they were victorious... many have fallen. So it was a delight for everyone that Robin and Noire would soon get married and life together.

the best thing that happened to me

pairing: noire x gn!reader

tags: insecure noire, silly comfort

"you're the best thing that happened to me, noire~"

you gently cupped your girlfriend's cheeks and pressed a short kiss onto her lips. 

"i'm the best thing that happened to you? i feel sorry for you…"

noire lowered her head, causing you to chuckle softly and lift her chin up. 

"you are! no doubt about it!"

brain: please for the love of god work on your assignments

also brain: ok but what if i drew noire and laurent at the mcdonalds drive thru

I know this is an ice cold take, but I get so sad when I play Fire Emblem. Because like, some of these characters have such an interesting story, so much of it is GOLD. 

Like, PLEASE tell me more about Camilla’s parentification and how it turned her into a helicopter sister, develop her paranoia surrounding Corrin, how the constant changes around her lead her to clinging to someone who literally couldn’t leave, how her connection to Corrin was most likely due to abuse and a lack of belonging, how her growing up without a mother drove her to become one for her siblings.

PLEASE elaborate on how Libra’s fervent faith was brought along by a neverending feeling of guilt, how he found peace within religion, how his past chases him. Tell us more about his devotion to Emmeryn, how his faith might have shaken upon seeing her plummet.

I BEG for more information on Peri, how her psychosis has been fed by being placed in a position where she must continue to feed her loodlust. For stories about Noire and how her trauma effects her beyond her DID. For the overwhelming fear and trauma Yarne has seeing history repeat itself, his mother dying, making him once again the last of the Taguel.

I feel like that’s the problem with the Fire Emblem formula, but also, in some way, it’s strength. They introduce these compelling ideas, but instead of leaving them open-ended and well shown, they just fall flat.

Great for the fanfic writers though.
