Ask The Abyss-Keeper

M48 FE3H fandom blog Occasional Mature Content 18+

[ask-the-abyss-keeper]

Hey you!

So this isn’t strictly and ask blog and it isn’t strictly a Fire Emblem Three Houses blog. It’s something else, something you might expect to find at a marked-down price on a vendor’s counter in Abyss. The Abyss-keeper is a middle-aged man (late 40’s) who’s seen ‘em come and go. He might answer your questions but then again, he might be sworn to secrecy. Ask anyway though, because not only do the walls in Abyss have ears, they have eyes, noses, and teeth as well. Someone might answer your questions, even if it isn’t yours truly…

The artwork and fan fiction that I reblog here are mostly the work of other folks. But if it’s ever my own stuff I’ll tag it accordingly. I’m also a huge fan of wild era Legend of Zelda and Octopath Traveler 1 and 2 so there might be the occasional overlap of fandoms here.

Mmmost of this blog is sfw but there might be the occasional mature content post. If you send me an anon ask and it’s of a mature nature, I might choose not to answer it.

Fire Emblem games I’ve played so far:

Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light

Blazing Blade

Sacred Stones

Three Houses

Three Hopes (not finished)

Engage

If I follow you back, it’ll be from my main account since this is just a side-blog. I make generous use of tags, except for when I want to avoid getting pulled into The Discourse. Curate your own online experience and filter any of my tags that you find annoying.

And be careful on your way back up from Abyss! Those steps are slippery because nobody has fixed that leak yet. I’d do it myself, but I’d have to leave my post…

I am outlining. I never outline. I am allergic to outlines. But in this case, it’s definitely going to help.

Red cape girl!

She’s been livin’ in her red cape world!

She’s got two crests and she’s got purple eyes

And now she’s looking for a strong ally

Oh, and she’s bi

And when she’s swingin’ her axe, she’s so fi-i-ine

And I’ll invite her to tea when it’s ti-i-ime

We’ll unlock C support

also note she’s real short

She’s a red cape girl!

You know I’d love to watch her plans unfurl

Travel to Enbarr to unseat her dad

Careful you’ll make the old archbishop mad

Cause she’ll be had

And when she cries from her dorm room at ni-i-ight

I’ll let her know she’s alri-i-ight

We’ll get to B support

Even though her route is short

My Red Cape Girl!

DON’T become even a casual nerd about historical fashion because you’ll start looking at pseudo-medieval fantasy and going “that jacket and those breeches are 200 years apart and reflect extremely different social movements” and “oh no they were NOT making shirts like that prior to industrialization” and “a fly front? in MY ~1500s???”

wait I've just had an idea for new discourse. would Edelgard use the outlook @ function like a dickhead or does she cc people politely normal style

well. which is it

occasional use of the @ function (somewhat dickhead behaviour)

never uses @ function, only CCs when necessary and adds a thoughtful note

replies all to an email from 1 person and @ tags them anyway (irredeemable)

Voting ended onMay 14

fwiw i believe replying to someone AND @ tagging their email as though they were not part of this conversation before you did so is genuinely very disrespectful

Hi Mr Abyss Keeper Sir, do you know if Antidotes work on hangovers? If not, what's your go to cure for them?

Buddy, if they did, believe me I would be peddling antidotes instead of watching the door! Toast and coffee, that’s my personal remedy.

Replicating the Fire Emblem Three Houses Portrait Style

How to Replicate Kurahana's Portrait Style

How to Replicate Kurahana's Portrait Style A tutorial by @ramyeonguksu Please note that this tutorial is not exactly how the artist of Fire

Here is my "master doc" on how I replicate the Fire Emblem Three Houses/Hopes art style!

DISCLAIMER: This is my personal approach on drawing the portraits as accurately as possible, and I did not include every little detail on how to achieve it. This doc is merely to be used to give a jump start to people who wish to try and attempt at drawing the style!

My "credentials"

My DMs/email are also available for people who wish for help/feedback/critique on the portraits!

Also if anyone posts them please tag me I'd love to see your attempts!

I also made a reference for the Officer's Academy uniforms, you can find it here!

[ramyeonguksu]

HI EVERYONE THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE

HUGE thank you to @knightlycrow for preserving a copy and helping me recover the doc!!

I added a note to both of my guides saying that IF YOU WANT TO ACCESS IT REGULARLY PLEASE SAVE A COPY SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN!!!

[ask-the-abyss-keeper]

Hi Mr Abyss Keeper Sir, I hope you're doing ok and the new students haven't caused too much trouble yet. Can you think of three good things that have happened recently, and share three things you're looking forward to?

Hey you!

Three good things? Here they are:

That first sip of cold beer after a shift guarding Abyss

The second beer that chases down the first

*slaps Anon’s back* Y’know what? Yer alright, Anon! Yer a good Anon! Make sure you keep sending stuff to my inbox ‘cause I’m about seven beers in and I’m on the late shift tomorrow. *falls asleep at the bar*

HI, FE3H FANDOM! I NEED YOUR HELP

Hi, you might know me as the FE3H portrait guide guy who made a detailed tutorial on the FE3H portrait style as well as a little guide for the school uniform dress code!

I'm going to admit something embarrassing. I ran out of space on my Google account and deleted some folders and without realizing I had DELETED THE PORTRAIT GUIDE like an idiot (and deleted permanently so it can't be recovered 😭)

It was completely on accident so I'm asking for help. I won't be able to remake a guide that detailed for a LONG while so if ANYONE saved it like made a copy or downloaded it as a doc/pdf file PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME... I want people to continue having access to it so it would mean a LOT to me if anyone has managed to save it!!!

Please reblog this so it can get more traction!

Edelgard

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

yall gotta learn the difference between "this character is an asshole" and "this character was supposed to be super cool but the author is an asshole" and "this character is a teenage girl who was mean once"

[darklightthedragon]

reblog to tell your moots that even if they disappear from the face of the earth you will always remember them.

[ask-the-abyss-keeper]

A few nights ago, I dreamt that I was Ferdinand and that I secretly had a crush on Edelgard, which was why I spent so much time trying to outdo her in everything. Even in the dream I knew that I had to watch my back because Hubert was lurking in the shadows somewhere. It was an eerie feeling.
