He's a 10 but he's just a drawing so he's still a 10
@lowres-masamune
Masamune #1 husband. I scream over SLBP, and make things. Feel free to join me or share your thoughts. You can call me Kei! This is my otome side blog, my main is ppopinjaysworld so I'll follow you back from there
I'm really sorry about my inactivity guys, this year has been an absolute wreck with lots of changes happening and I've been so busy that sometimes I would forget this blog even exists.
but my exams end in about a couple weeks so I'll be posting more things soon I promise! I'll also try to be more active here and organise this blog a little because I actually love posting on Tumblr. stay tuned and thank you to everyone who stayed here <3
aaaa I know I've seriously neglected this account but I haven't had much time for otome games either... I've been going back to SLBP and trying to be active there but currently with exams going on I've only been logging on every 2-3 days... but I promise I do have content and fresh memes lined up that I'll post soon!
hear me out guys. slbp lords as fate servants fellow fgo players where y'all at -eye emoji- I came up with this like 4 months ago and suddenly remembered it while brushing my teeth this morning so here we go this is the crossover event that no one asked for but we all deserve it.
I've only thought about their servant classes, but I had a lot of fun with it so there'll be more to come soon I've just been really busy for the past few weeks :( under a read more bc it got very long
(this is purely based on SLBP's depictions of them!)
Nobunaga — Ruler
Well I can't choose Archer for obvious reasons dammit. I know he isn't fair and etc like a Ruler normally is, but I thought it would be interesting because in SLBP he is shown to be a good lord who cares about the people below him and wants to change things for the better so that works I guess? And also imagine his ascension in FGO where he could go from either his act 1 self to his unification self or the other way round depending on how you want to depict him. interesting.
Mitsuhide — Caster or Saber
Mostly because I didn't really see him fitting into the other classes? but I feel like in a HGW he could still fight pretty well but he'd be more of a strategist type of servant.
Yukimura — Berserker
I was gonna go with Lancer at first because he has a big spear of his skill with a spear. But the story does mention that all his talk of dying in battle with honour etc is very excessive, and even makes other characters question his sanity. Berserker would also be a great fit for him because he would do anything to train and get stronger, and he would unhesitatingly give up his life for his lord, Shingen who he is almost blindly loyal to.
Saizo — Assassin
Pretty obvious choice, no comment.
Masamune — Saber
I didn't know where else he fits, and he is also mentioned to be a master of mine-uchi, a supposedly very difficult katana technique. Well he is good at a bunch of things in the story, but I think he'd fit best in Saber class <3
Kojuro — Saber
I feel like he could be a Caster as well, but he's the one who taught Masa all those sword techniques so I guess it made sense to have him here.
Inuchiyo — Lancer or Berserker
Because he uses his spear a lot ofc. And he is pretty reckless but he's also really strong like most Berserkers.
Ieyasu — Archer
I'm just gonna go with archer because I see his in game sprite has a bow. I think he could fit into assassin class but idk.
Mitsunari — Caster
He would be a great caster, but probably a pain to work with at first if you're not Hideyoshi.
Hideyoshi — Ruler
Because he definitely seems like one, personality-wise. I can really see him being the ruler in a HGW hehe
Shingen — Rider
An obvious choice because he's great at horse riding and he has the best cavalry in the land. He could fit into all the other normal classes except for caster and assassin but I needed some variety. Plus imagine him hanging out with all the other really cool riders like Drake hehehehe they would be good friends. also imagine him with his horse Kurokumo in his NP hnnngggg
Kenshin — Berserker
he could fit into most of the classes but I think this one kinda fits his reputation as the god of war. plus it would be interesting bc he does not look like a berserker at all. also bc he literally goes mad when he sees nice things and he will bring them home and no one can stop him (he is so relatable). he is so chaotic but we all love him. ALSO this means that he and Shingen will have a class advantage over each other HUHuHUHU so they will keep fighting each other and none really has the upper hand over the other; they will still remain rivals even as servants.
Shigezane — Saber
I don't know where else he'd fit either, and it just felt right to put him here idk.
I don't really know anything about Nobuyuki soz guys
imagine Nobunaga and Kenshin meeting their fgo counterparts
sorry this ended up being so long haha but I hope y'all enjoyed it. I haven't played enough of the Shadow routes yet to write about the ninja characters tho but the time will come. I haven't played all of the lords' routes yet so tell me if I might have misinterpreted something! feel free to add on <3
i really love the idea of the story revolving around 2 different characters' interactions, rather than just the MC and LI's relationship. mitsuhide and kenshin are so wholesome together! if they weren't on opposing sides they would literally be besties omg. kenshin's kindness was so heartwarming, and mitsuhide is as endearing as usual.
i was torn bewteen playing this story and the ieyasu & nobunaga one because i thought i only had time for one, idk what made me choose this but it's a choice i definitely don't regret. it's the most wholesome thing ever! i hope we can have more story events like this in future. if you haven't played this yet i would definitely recommend it, read it while there's still time! (about 11hrs left!)
I finally decided to write my own SLBP fanfic after 35969 years because Nobunaga's route has destroyed me and I love his character development. A little introspection on MC's feelings about the events so far. Loosely based on Nobunaga's Unification crossroads, contains spoilers for his Act 2 Destiny end.
Read it on Ao3 as well!
Sometimes she wondered if she’d made the right decision to follow the Lord of Hell backstage as the curtain closed on his final act. Or if he should, no, if he wanted to return to his stage.
Of course he didn’t, but MC thought a lot about what Nobunaga would do with all that hellfire in him, and the small voice in her head asked whether it would eat him up alive.
MC thinks about the events that have transpired so far, and questions her present while she reminisces the past. She looks deep inside herself, and finds answers.
It was on days like these where MC thought about everything that had led up to that moment.
It was moments like those, bathed in the orange and yellow hues of sunset, that brought back bittersweet memories — of Kiyosu castle, of the kitchen maids she worked with, and the Oda retainers bickering among themselves, and merry sounds of laughter echoing around the palace.
Whenever she walked through that lush clearing, when the wind tousled her hair, she'd look back and wonder what her life had come to.
And, how could she forget — that day when she sat with Nobunaga on his old tree, overlooking Owari and the lands he would conquer; the strength in his eyes as he spoke of his ambitions was nothing short of awe-inspiring; the blazing sunset on that day could not compare to the raging fire in his soul.
“Promise me, you will serve me until the day you die.”
That was a promise she’d never broken, one that she still served until now.
She never forgot all those jars of konpeito, those plates of castella that she personally brought to Nobunaga’s chambers all that time ago.
And now, they made konpeito in their humble little kitchen together while bickering over little things; he carried her groceries for her as they strolled around town; they built a home, a new life together.
They were just normal people now.
But every now and then, her thoughts would wander back to their old home — maybe Danming was home now, but when she glanced at the map over Nobunaga’s shoulder, she would think of Japan, of Owari, and see the faces of her family, of Inuchiyo, Mitsuhide, and everyone they’d left behind.
Sometimes she wondered if she’d made the right decision to follow the Lord of Hell backstage as the curtain closed on his final act. Or if he should, no, if he wanted to return to his stage.
Of course he didn’t, but MC thought a lot about what Nobunaga would do with all that hellfire in him, and the small voice in her head asked whether it would eat him up alive.
A booming voice calling her name snapped her out of her reverie. Looking up, she saw said man perched in his usual spot in his favourite gingko tree.
She’d seen him like this enough times to get used to it. But images from the past, of that day when she saw him like this for the first time, flashed across her mind, and bittersweet feelings resurfaced in her.
“Lord Nobunaga!” She cried out.
His usual piercing glare was soft, focused on somewhere she couldn’t see.
“You’re calling me that name again.” A faint smile graced his handsome features as he turned to her. “I’m just Nobu now.”
He looked more distant than ever, and it scared MC a little.
That’s the face of a man who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. That was someone who faced the cutting edge of the future with a glint in his eye.
And maybe he hasn’t changed at all.
She didn’t know why, but she found herself climbing up to meet him.
As she neared him, her arms were sore and tired, and she stretched a hand out to him.
He let out an exasperated chuckle. “What are you doing down there?” He reached down to pull her up the rest of the way.
It was oddly comforting, just sitting there next to him. And maybe that was what he needed.
So this is what it felt like to be on top of the world again, and maybe she understood why Nobunaga liked it so much. Now, the world felt so small as MC watched the endless hills and fields roll over the horizon, painted in the sunset’s colours. And she felt even smaller.
“It’s amazing…” MC mumbled as she turned to Nobunaga’s profile. His gunmetal grey eyes, once so cold, now had an odd warmth to them as they met hers; his soft garnet locks now grown out into a short ponytail —
“Foolish girl, what are you looking at?” He teased, lips forming into a smirk.
“Just enjoying the view,” MC replied, returning the gesture.
“Like it, do you?”
“Yes, very much.”
A comfortable silence, interrupted just slightly by the cry of Nobunaga’s sparrowhawk in the distance. MC smiled and sighed to herself. This was the peaceful life she’d always envisioned.
But through the tranquillity, she could almost feel the inferno that burned in him, spreading and warming her up inside, and she, a moth to a blazing flame — bright, consuming, unextinguishable.
Divine Rule was his play, and the world his stage. Here he was, on his throne atop the world, fit for the Demon King himself —
That wasn’t who he was, he’d given that up long ago, a moment in time swallowed up by the flames of Honnou-ji and his internal conflict.
MC told herself that she had stopped looking for Oda Nobunaga, because she loves this man called Nobu. But maybe she was missing him again.
The lingering warmth in his eyes, the eyes of a man at peace was what she saw.
Maybe he didn’t want to be found again.
Those thoughts would come and go, eventually fading, but never forgotten, just like the sweet aftertaste of sugar on her tongue.
They stayed just like that, watching the gingko leaves sway in the breeze, framing the sky around them; a picture frame of a memory, a moment between them forever cherished.
“You know, this reminds me a lot of when we first met,” MC stopped herself from saying, swallowing her words along with the uncertainty clouding her mind.
Frames of her memories resurfaced; Nobunaga’s kind smile, his warmth as they embraced, the sweet smells of the kitchen, the lingering taste of konpeito on their tongues.
And MC found her hand reaching for Nobunaga’s.
“Maybe I miss our old life, but I’m happy the way we are now. I’m happy here with you, Nobu.”
Maybe, just maybe, she didn’t have to keep asking herself all those questions anymore — her home was here, wherever he was.
So... am I the only one who whenever she starts a new route she feels down and like a cheater because "oh shit, yesterday I was this character's lover and now I'm not" and then my mind goes to the ultimate dark mode and then I'm like "This character used to suffer mentally alone and I saved him, now he'll go back to suffer alone and watch me making someone else happy" and the cycle repeats itself.
