Yuri: Bernadetta, what do you value in Ferdinand?

Bernadetta: He's thoughtful. He picks flowers and gives them to me. Often they're the ones I've just planted, but...

Ferdinand: That's how I know they're fresh!

Me: *trying to get some sleep* My ADHD hell brain: You know, Ferdie and Bernie’s c support is exactly the kind of interaction that would make Ferdie punish himself with self imposed isolation. Think about how miserable he must have been before the b support. Bernie’s words during said support probably prevented long term self hate. Me: D: My ADHD hell brain: *thinks about it for an hour instead of letting me sleep and causing me to suffer*

*slow inhale* AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

so, because i marry ferdie to hubert in almost every playthrough, and bernie gets paired with raph when i’m able to recruit him, i haven’t seen the ferdie/bernie support chain in quite a while.  but i went back to read it for this ask and??  wow??  you’re right??  

he probably shut himself off for the rest of the day and spent the night afterward training, as if he could sear right through his guilt.  he keeps on telling himself, again and again and again until his head is pounding and his heart is shuddering he could’ve been gentler, could’ve been gentler.

it occurs to him because of this that maybe he’s been wrong about people all the while.  he thought he’d had them pinned–they only get frustrated with you when you say something bad.  but as the conversation with bernie loops through his head, he can’t find anything wrong with it.  he expressed concern, he offered to help, he treated her with the kindness she deserved.  so just how did he mess it up this time??

honestly, i’m imagining he went to dorothea (assuming they’re friends at this point, which, in my soul, THEY ARE) and parroted through the entire conversation he’d had with bernie, asking her where he’d taken his missteps.  dorothea would do the best she could to hash it out for him–you were plenty gentle, ferdie, but bern doesn’t respond well to gentleness.  she thinks it’s fraudulent.  her father was sort of like yours, did you know that?

and then ferdinand trips right between the jaws of further remorse and suffers, because HE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, HE SHOULD HAVE S E E N IT, HOW COULD HE NOT HAVE SEEN IT, and he torments himself (and discovers everything he tells her in the b-support) until he scrimps up the courage to approach her again.  apologies are made from both sides, the b-support happens as you know it, but ferdinand finds himself being as aware of bernie’s emotions and desires as he can possibly be from then on.

Just got to live through the spiritual experience of realizing Ferdinand and Bernadetta are chilling together when you meet all the students for the first time. So like, before the events of their supports Ferdinand’s already someone Bernie’s lowkey okay with, and he even calms her down when you go up and spook her on accident, and idk that just warms my heart

For the kissing prompts could you please do number 8 and Fernadetta?

alright!!  cute prompt, cute ship…i love this request :)

~ ferdinand / bernadetta : laying a gentle kiss to the back of the other’s hand ~

“your hand,” ferdinand notes, grabbing for it hastily.  bernie laces her fingers through his own, fears she’s being too forward, and nearly flinches to free herself again.  ferdinand clamps down on it harder still.  “it is quivering.  for what reason?”

bernadetta hesitates, gnawing her lip.  “n-no reason,” she warbles, and her voice sounds thin, only half-formed but half broken, too.  “no actual reason, anyway.”  her leg hops - up down, up, almost in a blur - but the rest of her body is frigidly still.  “i-it’s just…this is the first time we’re going out in the world…where everyone can see us…as a couple, or whatever we are.  d-do you even want this, ferdinand?”

ferdinand’s jaw unhinges, his shock a nearly audible creak that stings more than just bernie’s ears.  “of course it is what i want,” he declares, sliding his thumb across her too-prominent knuckles.  “it is all i want, my princess.”  he hefts the hand to his lips and grazes his lips where his thumb had glided before, then spatters her wrist with a bracelet of kisses.  even after that, he nips a kiss at each raw cuticle.

he squeezes her hand, drops the bundle back to his lap, and grins.

“does that not prove as much to you, bernadetta?  if a noble claims to love someone, he means it with absolute integrity.  i know…love does not come freely for you, bernie, but my love…my love is not a demand, unlike love you may have known before.”  his eyes glint; the name of her father rattles emptily in both of their heads.

bernadetta twists her hand free from his, just so she can paw the tears on her cheeks away.  “well, if you’re sure,” she chokes.  “in that case, we shouldn’t be late to the meeting, should we?”

“no, we certainly should not.”  ferdinand practically springs to his feet, tugging bernie to hers as well - only for his hand to go flying away from her own.  “wait.  do you not wish for me to express romantic sentiments for you in public yet?  if you are not comfortable, i will be happy to abstain on your behalf.”

and for the first time in her life, bernadetta captures his hand herself - she initiates the contact, look at her go - and she doesn’t let go all meeting, even if dorothea and caspar won’t stop giggling behind their hands.

Fernadetta Hercules AU 👀 Ferdinand isn't quite as awkward as Hercules and Bernadetta isn't as confident and femme fatale as Megura, but still. Consider

Tbh this is such a valid suggestion lol. Ferdie’s dancer outfit is like a perfect Hercules outfit anyways so just him in that on a pegasus and bam it’s the movie. Bernie’s good at being in constant peril bc she’s always panicking but she’s a real good archer and can actually get herself out of situations as often as Meg but she just doesn’t act like it at all and Ferdinand is Really Into That

Hades is Bernadetta’s dad so Ferdie can beat the snot out of him rkdubejfjxhd

oMG aRE OtP QUEsTIonS STILl OPen? If so lel could I ask for 3, 4, 7 and 13 (I hope these aren’t to many kjhukhkjhk)

They aren’t too many!!! I’m always happy to talk about my babs UwU

3: Who walks around the house half-naked and who yells at them to put on some clothes?

Ferdinand is most definitely walking around half-naked, he has the self-confidence of a god. Bernadetta gets super flustered and starts telling him to at least put a shirt on bc she doesn’t know how to handle getting flustered past getting rid of the thing doing it

4: Which one tells the other not to stay up all night and which one stays up all night anyway?

Ferdinand is incredibly responsible and goes to bed at the same time every night and he wants Bernadetta to take better care of herself, so if she’s not getting ready for bed when he is he gives her a little “don’t stay up too late! I want you to be healthy! :)” and it never works. If Bernie’s in the mood to stay up all night she’s just gonna do it

7: Which one constantly wears the other’s clothes?

Bernadetta really likes to hide behind Ferdinand and wrap up in his cape, if that counts. And she just likes wearing his cape in general. It’s big and warm and very convenient for hiding under.

13: Which one likes to surprise the other with a lot of small random gifts?

Since Bernie likes being in the greenhouse so much she plants a lot of flowers for herself and a lot of stuff for tea leaves for Ferdie. You’d better believe he takes every opportunity to mention Bernie grew the leaves whenever he has tea with anyone
