honestly me & @ofostia when we get on our respective blogs to do shit.
guys... emmeryn’s downfall is the fact that she accepts EVERYBODY. like legit everybody. you a good guy? accepted. neutral? accepted. ENEMY? ACCEPTED. it’s not at all healthy in the slightest. like yea, she wants to protect her people. but.... all people are her people.
this leaves for so much abuse & its sad cause. i look at all the enemies of fe & i cannot help but to think about how many probably would.... keep her like a caged bird for their selfish desires. like if they... kept her from killing herself and just... made sure she was save, cause she’s a pretty bird and they wanna display her and have her sing for them and im just ldhfsb cause you know she would... cause she inherently just loves everybody...... & im crying so hard....
mother’s day is upon us, but it’s almost over and this poor lady got nothing. it’s okay though. forgive me emmeryn, let me love you so much.
made one for chrom, but have one for emmeryn too. how about we.... hit that ♡ for a sweet, gentle lady in your inbox. yes? sent either on anon or from exaltborne.
.ASKED ♖ — @ofostia │ unpromted — ♖ ALWAYS ACCEPTING.
"if it is a boy, i want to name him uther, after my late brother---", arms wrapped around his marchioness, hector keeps his chin over her shoulder, the glint of joy clear upon his eyes as he gives thought to baby names; both of them dearly desired a child, after all, and the news one may be on the way made the man ecstatic! there's a moment of sadness as he remembers his dead brother---how he wishes emmeryn could've met him! "if it's a girl, well... i suppose we must think on it."
♕ —– ᴅ ɪ ᴠ ɪ ɴ ᴇ —– ; THE LADY’S HEAD leaned back against dearly beloved as own lips pressed ever so lightly against the Ostian’s jaw. Endearing, was the Ylissean, in showing the utmost SOFTEST affection toward husband. Never had been more happy than now -- even throughout the nervousness this term ( even with a slightly heavy heart ), was still happy; incredibly so! Even excited! To have a child of her own with the man she loved? An Angel’s heart SKIPPED beats. Could not shake of such fluttering emotions.WANTED this more than anything! Only had the desire to give the Marquess the one true JOY that a partner could have. More than anything else, to have a child was the purest form of love a mortal Goddess could GIVE to him.
you would make such a wonderful father, my dearest hector . . .
—– ; DELICATE laughter escaped the woman’s lips ( the softest of giggles ). Lithe hands reached to touch, to hold! , the other’s. Even THROUGH the exhaustion of pregnancy, && the harsh conditions that new land had been on her, a Queen was still CAPABLE of radiating the healing warmth from her. A gentle hum escaped SWEET lips quietly. Heard what the man had to say. ( uther . . what a wonderful idea . . . ) Knew exactly why he would have a desire to name their child after his brother -- heard SOME stories about him. There had been nothing but LOVE for the brother, she knew. Oh, by the gods the Sovereign KNEW. Agreed with her beloved wholeheartedly. Would not DENY him the solace of naming their child after the warrior’s late brother if they were a son.
oh , but my lady emmeryn . what of a girl ?
—– ; HEARD what Ostian had to say. ( so he didn’t know yet ! ) Husband had not yet thought of a name for a daughter -- though it did not surprise her. Really, though, despite seeming like she hadn’t considered any names, she already HAD one in mind ( she knew what she wanted ). At least she CONSIDERED it often enough. Though when angelic voice gave way, the Seraph KNEW it was what she wanted.
❛ lilina . ❜ name rolls of tongue ever so sweetly . it’s perfect . it’s what she wants . knows the name is right . ❛ i want her to be lilina . ❜
like the flower . our little lily . .
places you can honestly find me if i am not posting here:
bxstiae ( Twilight Princess Link ) [ most ACTIVE blog ] exaltborne / exaltears ( chrom && emmeryn ) [ sporadic activity ] working on the pages for my multimuse/hub blog. [ no activity yet ]
emmeryn is a sideblog, so naturally i cannot follow you, but she is the better Awakening muse i have ( despite not having many interactions ). i follow you on chrom for her since she is the sideblog for chrom. you will find me lurking the most on link. he is currently the main muse i have. most stuff for chrom is drafted & when i find the muse for him i will take to the threads & asks. my apologies for being rather slow with him…
okay okay. but hear me out... emmeryn is such a gentle & tender soul. like nobody expects her to ever pick up a blade and fight. but just....... imagine her.... picking up sword. and defending the one she loves. lets be real here, she’d probably be a lance user though.
But she’d probably be able to wield a sword just as well!! since.. you know... falchion and all. ( she’s the one who actually taught chrom how to use it!! ) she probably holds it differently than her brother or niece but you know what. she’s a wonderful swordsman just the same.
also, lets... not forget... axes. Hammers? never. but axes? god. jsut me seeing her in front of her beloved, using that axe as more like a shield than anything else?? but using both hands cause she’s unused to them. like one hand on handle & other on the flat part of the head & just.... her struggling but capable of stopping a fatal blow to somebody.
I’m just.... this woman has so much power. & i feel she gets underestimated because she refuses to take up arms. like... guys... no. please don’t do that. she could probably pick up any weapon, have no clue about how you are supposed to use it. & then annihilate you with said weapon.
she really isn’t weak. she has a lot of excess power that has gone unused. Just consider this. all of those years of never yelling, acting out, getting upset, etc etc etc. not to mention she only uses a super small fraction of her true powers. would bearing arms quicken her death? oh yea absolutely. Not to mention that she’s a bit of a glass canon too. so if you manage to get the upper hand and DO in fact hit her -- she probably won’t be able to get up so quickly.
but she has speed, finesse, & uncanny strength at her side as well as magic. she’s no pushover.
y’all are lucky she’s so passive and pacifistic. but that all changes when she falls in love. so....
know that you are in for some deep shit if she falls in love with somebody.
.ASKED ♞ — @obsidiantias │ misc. starters — ♞ SEL. ACCEPTING.
“hope is dangerous.”
♕ —– ᴅ ɪ ᴠ ɪ ɴ ᴇ —– ; BELOVED QUEEN WAS as still as the sea in many circumstances. Gentle && nurturing. Not to often had she been stirred by what had been said by others. NEVER really! Many allies knew not to do so -- DARED not to. For an Angel’s wrath was almost absolute. Could only relate to the Gods. Had been respected / valued just as one. ANYBODY who braved enough to speak out normally was FOOLISH; in the Knight’s case, it seemed like he simply LACKED the FEAR. && just like the sea, the Lady was quick to stir, to change!
—– ; SUDDEN cry from child denoted a slight change in healing. Though a mere split second, was still enough to for a young hero to pull away. Gentle gasp escaped before Exalt leaned in to heal once more -- this time healing the ever so quickly. RUSHED in her method’s though it was only to fix what had been done so suddenly. The tender hush of ‘ i am sorry ’ escapes Grace’s lips as the Sovereign pulls the other in for a loving && warm hug. ( much like a mother to a child ) Hues only then glance at the one who had the AUDACITY to say such a bold statement. Gentle FLAME was there -- a passion in gaze -- yet it seemed only as strong as an ember.
❛ general zelgius . . ❜ voice is stern in speech . so quick to speak up && quietly snap . isn’t quite to happy about what had been said . ❛ is there a reason you wish to give such opinions ? here , right now , of all places , b o y ? ❜
—– ; NEVER had been so haughty before ( it did not dress her well ), though couldn’t help but to be slightly defensive. Warrior should have deserved more than such response. Though, the Mortal Seraph had not expected the man to HIT where it would HURT. Was a woman who lived on the very thing that a careful man had commented on.
no zelgius , do not take that away from me . it is all that i have left . . .
—– ; EMERALD hues flickered ever so lightly. What had once been filled with soft anger now hid a PAIN. Annoyed, maybe even exasperated, but was rather QUICK to forgive ( you always were so forgiving , young one ). The sadness in the words that follow suit should have been more than enough that he was far more CARELESS than intended.
❛ dearest . . . friend . please , you must be careful when you approach such a matter with me . . ❜ a pause before a soft sigh ❛ is there something on your mind ? i can step out for a moment if need be . . ❜
God, i am going through my reference videos for other stuff as well as rereading some things from discord last night and i’m really REALLY digging 2 ideas. i’m gonna @obsidiantias honestly cause they brought the suggestion up too last night for something else completely different but..... I’m just thinking....
I ran into THIS VIDEO this morning that really cemented the idea too.
nway a read more cause it got long.
