Passionfruit Tea with Lychee Popping Boba (Regular Sugar) asking for advice about Sanemi? Thanks!

Honestly this one is a kinda genius combo but also a little sad omg!! But thank you so much for requesting! I had a lot of fun with it!

Passionfruit Tea: Getting Relationship Advice (from the other Hashira)

Lychee Popping Boba: Multiple characters have a crush

Regular Sugar: Slayer Reader

Asking Rengoku Kyojuro:

He'd be caught off guard at first, eager to help you with whatever you need, but then surprised to hear you were asking for relationship advice… If you tell him who specifically you need advice for I think it would hurt more considering he actually knows him… a lot easier to lose to someone you don't know, right?

Kyojuro would definitely do his best to stay positive and help you, as he's not one to let his personal feelings impede helping others, but that's not to say it's easy to bite back "are you sure Sane mi's the one?".

In the end he gives decent advice! He wants to see to it that you're happy, and overall enjoys the time he gets to spend with you while he helps. 

Asking Kocho Shinobu:

Shinobu probably deflects or teases a lot more than she actually gives advice… you'd probably have to pester her a bunch before she actually starts saying anything that's actually helpful! 

Depending on when you catch her it's a lot of "not right now," "I'm a bit busy but you can ask me later" or otherwise putting it off because it's kind of easier for her to ignore it (and she is busy a lot so).

If you tell her who it is you need advice for she can't help but laugh. Although you probably don't catch it, there's a lot of frustration in her laugh… like a "really? Him?" Sort of scoff that she plays off with teases, not letting you in on the jealousy behind it. 

Generally doesn't really want to help as much as it kinda hurts to do so, but she can easily play it off due to her naturally judgey/teasing demeanor.

 Asking Tomioka Giyuu:

Genuinely he doesn't even really know what to do? Or at least doesn't know why you're asking him of all people considering he and Sanemi famously don't get along. 

I don't really have a lot of thoughts here since I don't think he'd be very good at giving any advice (I don't think he'd be able to think of anything very good to say even), but I do think this is one of the saddest ones… Giyuu would resolve himself to never act on his love for you especially not after this. He just thinks it's one of those moments where he got too comfortable and so everything gets taken away from him.

Asking Iguro Obanai:

To be honest Iguro is another one that takes pestering/convincing to help you out. It's a win/lose since he probably is one of the hashira that knows Sanemi best but also doesn't feel like helping… That is if you tell him it's Sanemi, but I feel like he'd want to help less if he didn't know.

In terms of advice it's less about romance and more just answering yes/no questions about Sanemi that might help in the long run (its harder to get him to answer open ended questions without him groaning in protest). It's a bit similar to Giyuu of him quietly accepting your feelings and that he will never capture your affections the same way… but also with Iguro he probably wouldn't have ever acted on his feelings anyways, feeling he didn't deserve to be loved back

Asking Kanroji Mitsuri:

I think Mitsuri gets so excited to help that she almost gets too caught up in it all to think much about her own feelings (which maybe is for the better). She's no stranger to heartbreak but at the same time she also kinda has a bit of a crush on everyone so I don't think it really hits her as hard as anyone else… probably because she's also talked herself out of it quite a bit.

In terms of Advice, I think Mitsuri's definitely got the right idea and points you in the right direction, but the specifics of it can be a bit silly…. Like she makes a point to say that men don't like women with big appetites but then also talks about specific foods way too much or something like that.

She would be the least judgemental if she hears that it's Sanemi, definitely chiming in reasons she thinks he's cool or saying how you'd be cute together instead of teasing you or judging your taste like the others.

Asking Uzui Tengen:

Honestly takes it the best out of everyone. I mean he has three wives so it's not like it's a huge loss/he's heartbroken… or at least he tells himself that.

I think He's similar to Mitsuri in that overall a lot of his advice sounds ridiculous or like it's not even real advice, but you can definitely catch snippets of what he's telling you to be helpful even if it's not in the way he means.

I wouldn't doubt it if he's also feeding you a few absurdities on purpose to potentially piss of Sanemi too lol

No Mui or Gyomei because I still don't really know how to write for Gyomei and I didn't figure Mui would really work in this scenario 🤔

[kabura-maru]

I made a new prompt list!

I intended for my first post back to be a drabble or two but instead I just have like 3 drafts I'm just staring at a lot more than actually working on so... Might as well post my newest headcanon prompt list cuz I'm really proud of it!

Basically you just gotta request a Bubble tea order! Start with a Base (type of headcanons), pick some toppings (relationship dynamic), and determine the drink's sweetness (reader specifics). This is mostly intended for headcanons but I may do little scenes along with them if I have inspiration!

An example: "Blueberry Tea with Strawberry Jelly 50% Sweet" would be asking for Domestic headcanons of an established relationship between a character and a non-slayer reader.

~~

Drink Base (1 per req):

Milk Tea - Confessing Feelings

Taro Cream Tea - Date Night

Honey Tea - First Meeting/First Moment you Fell in Love

Coconut Milk Tea - Showing Affection/PDA

Matcha Milk Tea - Jealousy/Protectiveness

Green Apple Tea - Everyone else knows before you do

Peach Tea - Relationship Misunderstanding (character thinks you like someone else/other characters think they like someone else)

Pomegranate Tea - Firsts (first kiss, first 'I Love You', etc.)

Strawberry Tea - Waking up next to them

Blueberry Tea - Domestic

Passion Fruit Tea - Getting Relationship Advice (from the other Hashira)

Red Bean Cream Tea - other headcanons (specify)

Toppings (1-2 per req)

Tapioca - Mutual Pining (and everyone can see it)

Mixed fruit Jelly - Childhood Friends

Mango Jelly - Rivals

Strawberry Jelly - Established Relationship

Strawberry Popping Boba - Established but Secret Relationship

Mango Popping Boba - Reader Related to a character (specify)

Green Apple Popping Boba - Reader is a Hashira's Tsuguko/Apprentice (specify)

Lychee Popping Boba - Multiple characters have a crush

Sweetness (1 per req)

50% Sugar - Non-Slayer Reader

Regular Sugar - Slayer Reader

Extra Sugar - Hashira Reader

[kabura-maru]

Hey... so, uh, Its been awhile...

To be honest, I don't even know what to say, as I'm doubtful that after 2 years any of you might even still care about this blog... I've just been thinking about it so much recently and how much joy it brought me to write and I just really need that again... So I was thinking "hell, maybe it's time for a comeback!". So, yeah.

Initially I took a break from posting due to burnout but still wrote some stuff for myself from time to time... but after a personal tragedy in my life a few months ago I just kinda stopped everything. I just didn't really have the heart/motivation to continue with my hobbies, and now I find myself more insecure with my writing than ever since it's been so long! But in more recent days I've thought about it, and I don't want the negativity to win anymore.

I just really want my love of writing back.

...and so I'm hoping posting here again will help me achieve that, or at least keep me motivated to keep trying. Thank you to anyone who might want to share this journey with me <3

✨Hello✨

If you’re familiar with my other writings on my old blog (Kabura-maru) then welcome back! If you’re new to my blog, welcome!!

On my old blog I wrote primarily for Kimetsu no Yaiba/Demon Slayer until I got really into Fire Emblem Three Houses, so now I have a new blog for a fresh start!

Because of my username many people started calling me ‘Maru’, but I’ve decided that online I’ll be going by ‘Lumi’ instead!

I hope y’all like my works and stick around even through my inconsistent posting 💖💖

[kabura-maru]

Made my new FE3H Blog!

So far all that’s up there is my new empty masterlists, sorry, but I’ll definitely be posting soon! That being said my Fire Emblem masterlist on this blog is fully updated!!

Anywayyysss! I really hope you guys will follow me on there and continue to enjoy my writing. I probably won’t be checking this account often more.

[kabura-maru]

Aww, those are so precious!! can i get 🌸💖 for dimitri please? Than u!!

Idk how I feel I did on this one but considering I started writing on a whim during my lunch break its aight..

A Shy Confession || Dimitri Blaiddyd

Dear Y/N,

I apologize if this letter surprises you, but I’m not sure if I can put my feelings out there in words as coherently as I can putting ink to paper.

Your smile is indescribable, and I noticed this from the first time you laughed at my poor execution of a joke. It wasn’t a pity laugh either, but genuine and gentle thing. Like the sound of wind chimes on a summer day.

I’m getting ahead of myself, for that I apologize, but once I started writing I just couldn’t stop. Again, better than stumbling over my words.

In short, I’ve fallen for you. Your smile, that beautiful radiant smile... your gentle hands.. oh how I dream for them to fit into mine perfectly... sorry. I did it again. Best not to scratch it out though.. but all in all, I’ve fallen for you. I hope you can accept my feelings.

Sincerely.

D. A. Blaiddyd

P.S. Please ignore Sylvain if he tries to pester you about this...

[kabura-maru]

Hi hi, so for your love letter prompts, might I request ❤(asking out) for Ferdinand? And perhaps if it's possible, 💜(asking to the ball) for Seteth as well? To clarify, the reader for Seteth would be an adult. If you can't do both, just Ferdinand is fine! Have a nice day!

Honestly? I’m just not confident in my ability to write Seteth at the moment, so I hope my Ferdie letter suffices!! I hope the letter sounds like he actually wrote it and not that I was just making stuff up...

An Invitation || Ferdinand Von Aegir

Dearest Y/N,

I write this letter hoping to find you in good health and good spirits. If the latter is not true, then perhaps I can change that for you?

You’ll find that I am away at the moment—on assignment with the professor—but this letter should suffice as an invitation for now. Will you join me for tea upon my arrival back at the monastery?

Don’t be fooled! This isn’t any old tea that I might have with Lorenz, trust me on this. I’ve curated and stashed away a blend I hope that you specifically will enjoy. I have already gone ahead and asked the kitchen staff in advance to make those little tarts that you adore so much.

I do hope that you will join me.

Yours,

Ferdinand Von Aegir

[kabura-maru]

How about Ashe with a reader with multiple suitors? Have a good day and make sure to take breaks if you need to :)

Last suitor series req in my inbox but certainly not the last I’ll do! I couldn’t sleep so here ya go (wanted to do this before continuing love letters)

Funny how I procrastinated Ashe’s even tho hes my fav??? Idk I just get scared of doing bad for my favs lol

—

Suitor Series 3 || Ashe

- At first he’s quite irked by them if/because they pester you and you don’t like they’re advances; he says its because they’re disrespectful but its also definitely because hes jealousy

- Likely doesn’t click as jealousy at first, but when it does he still comes to your side in defense of bad suitors but afterwards withdraws from a sort of embarrassment?? He doesn’t like his jealousy :(

- Not much malevolent words/actions with him, more of trying to be better than the suitors in a way

- He tries to get you gifts/flowers (possibly to show up a suitor’s gift) but when giving it he gets all flustered and bashful and can’t admit to the romantic undertones to his actions 🥺🥺🥺

- Probably a bit clingy like sylvain... hes your knight after all 🥺 but hes also quick to respect your space and possibly back off due to his own insecurities

- Might make the mistake of asking Sylvain for advice... then immediately asking someone else after lol

—

Anyways I dream about smooching Ashe under the moonlight lmao ahhhhhh 🥺🥺

[kabura-maru]

💘🖤 With Petra? Thx!

First Petra work! Tho this is a little sad UHHHH

—

Condolences || Petra x Reader

💘Opposite Sides of the War /🖤 Death

You hadn’t expected a letter, that was for sure, but you especially didn’t expect one from the Adrestian Empire.

Futzing with the seal that kept the envelope closed, you tore it open. Pulling out the smooth parchment, you vaguely recognized the ornate and somewhat loopy handwriting on it.

Dearest Y/N,

I was not given an easy task to write this letter, but I thought that you of all people should know, even if I should not be in correspondence with you.

Despite us not qualifying as friends since our last days spent at the monastery, I could never forget the bond you had with our Petra.

As you must be aware, the most recent clash of our armies took place at Gronder Field. Even more reminiscent of our academy days, no? With that you must know the amount of casualties... this next part does not come easy to write.

Your hands trembled at this point, breath caught in your throat.

It is with a heavy heart and trembling hand that I tell you that Petra Macneary has passed.

My greatest condolences,

Ferdinand Von Aegir

How’s this for some Ferdinand content @evies-storybook ? Lmao

[kabura-maru]

Had an idea so like,,, lets try it! Working on some longer fics so this is something shorter that can be done faster!!

Probably saw this done elsewhere but not sure? Not intending to copy anyone if so

Also ignore that this is kinda dumb???? Idk just an idea... you can be more specific when you req or leave it vague idk

[kabura-maru]

Hi! Now im just curious, which fe3h route is your favorite? As for me... i absolutely love azure moon, and the blue lions is my favorite house as well. I just love seeing dimitri's arc of change, is just omg i love him so much ;-; I love my blue lion students as well🥺 (felix, darling, you are behind dimitri in my love list) what about you? Take care! —❣

Big mistake on your part, I could literally write a whole analytical essay on the different routes omfg....

I’ve played them all, and I may be biased having played Azure Moon first, but it’s by far my favorite as well as the blue lions (I’m playing it again currently.)

I could go more in depth but I already kinda gush about all the characters enough... but just because its vaguely on topic uhhh here’s who I’ve S supported so far:

Ashe - Azure Moon (love of my life ahhhh omg so cute) // Claude - Verdant Wind // Yuri - Silver Snow // Edelgard - Crimson Flower (I don’t particularly like her but it felt like the most authentic way to play CF) // currently going for that Dimi S support babey

[kabura-maru]

Omg that last request of a cute and beautiful fem reader with many suitors was adorable🥺 can you do the same but with felix, linhardt and sylvain? Thank u!💚💚💚

Suitor Series! Suitor Series! Suitor Series!

—

Ingrid/Dorothea paralogue but its the three of them:

- Felix is mad and protective. Definitely just says he doesn’t wanna lose a competent classmate

- Linhardt is sleepy and definitely the best at hiding the jealousy... probably just says he got roped into it or its to study your crest

- Flirty jokey fucker saying dumb stuff like “well we haven’t had dinner yet so I can’t let someone else take you out first”

- Felix decimates the enemies no cap

Felix

- angery... but closed off about it mostly... crossed arms and scowls more than usual

- Stares holes into the suitors, especially during training

- Probably challenges them to duel, effectively scaring them away, but you have no idea and when you ask why they stopped talking to you he just shrugs

- Sylvain teases the fuck out of him and it makes it so much worse

- Dimitri innocently suggests Felix become a suitor (because hes a noble and all that) and oh boy Dimi almost gets his shit rocked

- Things get pent up until you piece it all together... you’re gonna have to approach him because he’ll never admit it first

Linhardt

- Exhaustion mistaken for him not caring. Yeah he loves naps, but he also hates the suitors, he can multitask!

- Casual fucking with them... often in the form of remarks that show that the suitors are dumb or don’t know things about you like he does

- “He favorite color is _____, don’t you pay attention?”

- Particularly angry suitors threaten him but that just loses more points with you since hes kinda just a harmless healer to you

- Hes sly and calculated about his efforts, not in your face about it but not just sitting back and watching either

Sylvain

- you thought he was flirty before? Oh get ready...

- Trailing after you like a lil puppy

- He doesn’t wanna watch you get snatched away, so he’s trying his best, but hes also doing it with his typical playboy behavior to hide the pain :(((

- Hes very touchy with you, especially when the suitors are around

- Doesn’t like any of them but probably expresses this to you with ‘harmless’ jokes

- “I don’t know... that guy seems like he might have a sister complex!”

- Always steals you away right as they arrive

- “Sorry buddy, she’s already made plans with me ;)”

- Bro he probably gets all sad when you’re off with a suitor and the lions all know this, often helping him a bit in unconventional ways

[kabura-maru]

My heart does flips when my work is reblogged or when I get tagged in things! Doesn’t happen as often now but I still love it

[kabura-maru]

Can i request some claude and dimitri × a cute and beautiful female reader that has many suitors please? Thank you!! Love ya <3

I LOVED THIS REQ??? I galaxy brained and wrote this instead of paying attention to my speach class oop,, but writing this I realized the potential in this scenario??? Definitely wanna do more folks if y’all have certain people in mind! Otherwise I’ll just randomly write more at like 1am.

—

My first thought 100% is the Ingrid and Dorothea paralogue....

Dimitri is definitely more on the side of “oh I’m just protecting you from the shitty suitors... yeah definitely...” and Claude is similar but more jokey about it, tagging along “for the laughs” or “for the training” but hes also definitely there to make sure no one else gets you. Claude gives you goofy faces and winks and jokes all throughout while Dimitri tries to be serious.. faltering onky when you smile and thank him.

Dimitri

- He wants to be supportive, but his protective instincts and stuff kick in...

- Does not like any of them... even if they’re sorta nice he finds something to not like about them

- Doesn’t really voice any of this except to maybe Dedue, just kinda frowns/scowls when the suitors are around.

- If they’re particularly shitty and clearly making you uncomfortable he will 100% rush to your side and tell them (politely!!) to go the hell away.

- Dedue honestly ALWAYS stares down the suitors when hes in range because he knows how much Dimitri detests them

- Hes not sneaky but honestly might ask Annie or Mercedes about your suitors just to see if he has anything to worry about... they know he likes you but feign innocence lol

Claude

- sneaky... but also up front about it all??

- Will tell them to go away, even if they’re not particularly bad? This may be a bit annoying to you and you may get mad at him but he’ll flash a goofy smile and just claim he’s messing around

- Usually says things like “hey, dude, she doesn’t even like you” or “seriously?? we’re training right now”, aka telling them to fuck off without insinuating anything about his own feelings

- Probably at first didn’t recognize the frustration as jealousy, thinking he simply didn’t want suitors fucking with your training/studies, but later realizes he actually likes you 🥺

- Doesn’t like being vulnerable so he ALWAYS acts like the suitor thing is a joke even if he gets really insecure

- If the suitor is a particular pain in his ass, he might poison them... just light stomach poison...

- Yeh, he pranks/fucks with them often

[kabura-maru]

Oh pleeease, some extra fluffy headcons for linhardt, felix and sylvain. Maybe the female reader got fataly wounded because she took a hit for them, and they are taking care of her because they feel guilty and worried? Heck, they dont even sleep, they stay at the reader's side to hold her hand until manuela tells them to (get the hell out of the infirmary) rest. Once the reader wakes up they idk hug her or something? You can use your imagination as much as you want! Thank you so much!💗💗💗

Lowkey don’t like how this turned out, I know I can probably do it better... just did headcanons but totally willing to write a scene for this if anyone wants! Might do more characters for this scenario in future... I hope you like even if it’s mediocre

Linhardt

- highkey upset but won’t really want to see you at first if you’re super bloody, which is also sorta distressing that he can’t be with you right as you take the hit

- Definitely unsettled, because heck! You saved him! But hes worried for you and that worry was much stronger than his dislike for the blood

- Can’t even seem to nap which is one of the worse things for him... nor is he really able to focus on doing much else

- In the infirmary whenever Manuela lets him ‘cause he has a respect for when he’s not allowed (except the few times hes snuck in but we don’t talk about that)

- He’s definitely tried to like use white magic on you himself but Manuela reprimanded him for it because by that time all that was needed was rest

- You probably wake up once he’s actually able to sleep (he fell asleep at your side) and hes holding your hand 🥺

Felix

- quiet when visiting you when the rest of your house visits... arms crossed, scowl, the whole shabang.

- Mad that not only was he unable to react in time but it caused you to get hurt

- Comes back and visits separately probably in the evening (Manuela begrudgingly lets him because she knows hes tsundere lmao)

- Likely sits quietly at your side, definitely sad but doesn’t show it if you’re awake.

- When you wake up and ask why he’s there he makes some dumb excuse like “I wanted to make sure you knew I could’ve handled it myself” like shut up felix we know you’re smitten

- Stays with you if you ask but probably leaves promptly after you wake up otherwise

Sylvain

- he is 100% the bane of Manuela’s existence during this time

- ALWAYS with you even when you’re asleep

- Pesters Manuela about your condition, possibly tried to get Mercedes on it too even if there’s nothing she can do

- Pampers you! Always bringing you dinner and eating with you, fluffing your pillow, etc.

- Annette and Mercie think its really cute how devoted hes being but Felix and Ingrid are just like “ew” lmao

- When you wake up hes holding your hand and then he kisses it and its just bejebshebehd

[kabura-maru]

Hopefully my last braincells activate soon so I can write more than headcanons lmaooo

What Its Like to Hold Their Hand || FE3H

Part 2 (girls)

—

Blue Lions

Mercedes

so sweet and such soft hands! She definitely uses scented lotions so your hands probably smell nice after! Warm but not sweaty or anything... intertwined fingers

Annette

she’s usually very excited so she may hold your hand quite tight! Hands aren’t notably warm or cold, somewhere in the middle. Grabs your hand whenever she’s scared!

Ingrid

Kinda not big on hand holding? Or at least not in public?? She becomes a tomato with PDA! Warmer hands maybe a bit sweaty? Good grip due to her using a lance lol

Golden Deer

Marianne

shes shy!!!! Intertwined pinkies more than anything. Cold hands that she loves to warm up in yours 🥺

Hilda

limp grip, warm hands. She’s not gonna make the conscious effort for a firm grip the whole time but still loves holding hands

Lysithea

cold hands??? Shes always cold imo. Her grip always changes, looser when focused on something else but when she kinda ‘zones back in’ her grip gets tighter (lil squeezes of love?)

Leonie

very firm grip! You gotta remind her to go easy on your hands! Very warm

Black Eagles

Edelgard

doesn’t hold hands often really. Only in private? I really can’t see it much unless shes SUPER close with you? Kinda tsundere vibes ngl. Warm & firm.

Bernadetta

will she ever leave her room to hold your hand? Unlikely. Cold hands but she caresses your hand with her fingers while you’re holding them 🥺

Petra

firm grip! Probably thinks its sorta a competition??? Lol. Warm hands.. prefers other forms of affection but she’ll hold hands if you ask

Dorothea

10/10 perfect grip and perfect temp. She knows what shes doing with soft ass hands and kisses your knuckles and the whole shabang

[kabura-maru]

14 for Sylvain and Felix. Thank you.

I’m sorry this sucks???? First day of class blues

Also what is formatting?????

—

Sylvain

“Traits they don’t like in a partner?”

First and foremost, he wants a genuine person who loves him for him and not for his crest or status... so he absolutely doesn’t like dishonest or gold-digging people (tho like who would).

Not only that, but Sylvain is probably looking for a kind, gentle person... so honestly tomboyish-ness isn’t a big turn on for him? He isn’t big on loud, stubborn personalities and especially not someone with minimal manners... though Sylvain doesn’t strike me as overly picky??

Felix

“Traits they don’t like in a partner?”

I feel like Felix is much more picky than he’d like to admit, but also once he knows you he’s quick to disregard his standards??? Idk...

As much as he’s competitive, he doesn’t want an overly stubborn partner. Basically, he doesn’t want someone too much like him more or less.

At the same time, someone frustratingly shy won’t cut it either, he’ll quickly lose patience with overly dainty girls with no confidence in themselves tbh... sorry
