8. Probably Valkyrie. Mounted, uses magic, and gets a bonus to spell range? Yes, please. If only it wasn't exclusive to women...

7. Fleche. I really wanted her to interact more with the rest of the cast. Give her some Supports at least, even if she's too inexperienced for it to make sense to make her playable. You can't command Rhea, but she still gets Supports. Why not Fleche?

6. Edelgard. I found her developing bond with my character extremely heartwarming. I'm pretty sure the romantic variant of the ship is vastly more popular, but I really like the idea of my character and Edelgard coming to see each other as something akin to siblings.

5. I'm going to guess by "story" they mean "route." My favorite would have to be Crimson Flower. I've nothing against the other route-exclusive characters, but I've grown especially attached to Edelgard and Hubert and some of my favorite pairings are CF-exclusive.

4. Not sure, honestly. Some of my favorite characters are in the Black Eagles, but I like a lot of the characters from the other houses, too, and a lot of my favorite interactions are between characters from different houses.

3. Black Eagles. Because Empire, as CGP Grey would say--no, really, that's why I chose them first.

2. It's a Fire Emblem game. That was enough to get me started. The worldbuilding, aesthetics, story, and characters did the rest.

Only learned about this now, so please excuse the late start. 1. When did I hear of Three Houses? I believe it was pretty soon after it was first announced.

The Daily Liar? Yuck. Just one more reason why I'm unrepentant about using an adblocker on that site. Interrupting a favorite song of mine with an ad for soda? Annoying. Interrupting a favorite song of mine with far-right propaganda? Infuriating.

Seriously. Reelecting Biden won't magically solve everything, but left-wing activism will probably be easier and safer if the executive branch is under Democratic control.

I do not get this annoyance at teleprompters. I'm thirty-five and I'd rather have a teleprompter or some notes on hand to help me with prepared statements than rely on my good but still fallible memory and hope I didn't forget anything important.

This so much. I'm not going to sacrifice pretty much everyone I love to make everything awful just because the good guys MIGHT win afterwards.

President Biden owes an apology to the alley cats of the world. They are vastly more moral than Trump.

Excuse me. Forgot the capitalization. It's apparently "Katze," not "katze."

The fires make me think this is supposed to be from the Crimson Flower route--in which case she will be fulfilling one of the criteria for sainthood pretty soon.

I see no path forward that doesn't either dramatically darken Fódlan's future or risk coming off as racist. 5/5

If I make someone else the main colonizer, though, would that qualify as apologia for European colonialism? I think it's also safe to say that having Fódlanese colonialism be benevolent would be pretty blatant colonialism apologia--as well as historical negationism. 4/5

I could have Fódlan be a colonizer, but that means what happiness can be found in the game's ending is arguably undone by the atrocities committed by future Fódlanese governments. While I don't want it to be all sunshine and rainbows after the war, I still want there to be hope. 3/5

As such, I'm now faced with the question of what to have the setting's Europe equivalent do. If I have Fódlan refrain from colonizing and conquering, is that a form of historical negationism? If Fódlan becomes the most prosperous part of the world, am I putting Europe on a pedestal? 2/5

I've been trying to do some expanded Three Houses worldbuilding and have hit something that worries me. Judging by its aesthetics and names, I'm pretty confident Fódlan is supposed to be Europe. However, the major European powers did some pretty awful things in the Early Modern Era. 1/5

Max (2004-2023) was the same way as he got older. He was always a sweetheart, but he was especially cuddly in his older years.

I'd like to express my gratitude for the existence of portmanteau ship names (e.g. Edeleth, Ashenette, Cathmir, Ferdibert). They make my fanart searches much easier, be it because I'm after fanart of a specific ship or because there's one or more ships I'd rather not see fanart of.
