Hello!! If you don’t mind, could I please get a matchup? I’m bi, so no gender preference! I’m the type that doesn’t speak unless spoken to, but really I’m going with the flow. I’m clever (and a bit of a sadist) and I take great joy in messing with people out of spite. I’m blunt, which can come off as rude, but I’m just bad with words. I can become really devoted to the few things that interest me, and I like to draw and write stories in my free time. Thank you!
I match you with… Sylvain!
out of the other students, he’s most likely to make the first move to talk to you. even if you have a snarky response to his outright flirtatiousness, more than anything, he’ll take it as a challenge.
he finds you seated by yourself in the gardens, scribbling away in one of your notebooks. he’d sneak up behind you to peer over your shoulder, wanting to check in on what you’re up to before engaging.
“didn’t take you much as the studious type and it seems like i was right.”
you slam your notebook shut and glare at him. doesn’t he have anything else better to do than pester others in his free time?
he laughs and takes a seat anyway, then begins to ask you more about the story you’re working on. “i think you’re quite talented, based on what little i’ve been able to read.”
the moment he takes his seat, you stand & briskly walk away.
it’s difficult to shake him off however, as he constantly asks for updates on your story, surprisingly remembering every detail of the page he caught you working on. even when you try being extra snarky, he laughs it off saying that you look so cute when you puff your cheeks out/pout like that.
he bothers you so often that when he’s busy in class or off on missions, it surprises you that you may actually miss his annoying face.
uh howdy! would it be fine if I got a matchup? I’m a bi infp who’s really shy. It’s kinda hard for me to get close to people because I just won’t believe they like being around me or just wanna use me or stuff. While I’m quite shy, sometimes when I start talking i just won’t stop and then I end up rambling on. I’m a bit of a hopeless romantic-I do enjoy drawing a lot or just lazing about doing nothing. I also really love to travel to different countries, it’s just really fun yknow? [1/2] 🐢
I’m also a music lover, although I’m a big fan of swing and electro swing music. I have tried to play instruments and sing, but I’m not that good oops. Anyways, that’s all I can really think to add. Thank you and hopefully this doesn’t get eaten up by tumblr- [2/2] 🐢
I match you up with Dorothea!
choir practice had always been fun, especially when she begins to appear by your side, friendly commentary and quiet giggles hidden between the notes of a song. the professor had given you a particularly sharp glare one day, and one thing led to another, and you found yourself hanging around outside of practice, familiar banter turning into an easy friendship.
she may be a bit overwhelming sometimes, but she has always been gentle with you, careful not to drag you straight out of your comfort zone. there’s always a genuine smile on her face while she sits and listen to you ramble on about the various places you’ve traveled to or the newest song that has caught your ear. she always seems to seek you out, ready with gossip of romance for the two of you to fawn over. or perhaps you both would just sit in the courtyard, comfortable in one another’s presence, flipping through your textbooks and doodling in the margins.
you had never felt worried about her taking advantage of you, because you had become close enough that you can recognize the glint of insecurity in her eyes. while she was quick to reassure you that people like you, that she would never let anyone use you, you were never as good at comfort as she was. you end up rambling on one day, telling her not to be so harsh on her self, and you have to physically cover your mouth to end what has been a sudden barrage of compliments. your words only bring out that dazzling smile and teasing words from her, but really, her heart is fluttering and her face is just moments away from flushing.
it was cute. the two of you were cute. it was undeniable how well the two of you suit one another, like two characters in a cheesy romance novel. you would never admit it, of course, the two of you are just travelling around fódlan because it was convenient. because you were friends. because you two were a team and a force to be reckoned with. nevermind the fact that the two of you have been together for so long that you can communicate by merely sharing a look. ignore how much closer you’ve gotten, journeying alone and sharing rooms. don’t mind how she presses her lips to yours and— oh.
@edelgoth here are your matchups boo!! I have never done a written matchup before, though I have done them quite a lot in my head, so I hope these are good!!! -admin belle
I did two romantic matchups, one romantic/platonic, and I left a list of potential platonic matchups to follow!
matchup under the cut because I use a lot of words and I don’t wanna eat up dashboards
#1- Mercedes
At first I was sort of questioning on if this would be ideal, but with the more I have thought about this, the more passionate I am about this pairing
You said you wanted someone who is open-minded and genuinely caring who wants to see the world become a better place, and I would struggle to think of anyone better to do this with than Mercie!
Though I did consider Claude for this as well, I ended up choosing Mercedes for #1 because I think that she would be better at consistently giving you the validation and affection that you desire
Not that Claude would not be affectionate as well, but I think that the stronger caring aura that she has would sit better with you
Both of you are open-minded and thoughtful, and you would be able to give e/o the same level of care and attention that you give out to other people
That's positive karma baby!!! you both deserve a lot for what you do for other people, and your philanthropic personalities would be a strong force together
I feel like in a relationship, both you and Mercedes would need someone who is willing and most importantly wants to give back the same level of appreciation and effort that you/she puts in, and you both would far surpass this standard for each other
I also really like here that you each take a different approach to what you do
Mercedes deals more in the emotional side of taking care of people, whereas you take the more insightful and analytical route
This sort of “similar yet different” style of partnership works really well since you have enough in common to form a partnership, but your differing skills would compensate for what the other lacks in
You each care in different ways, but it's clear that both you and Mercie share a common goal of making the world a better place and helping people out
You would be such a sweet, caring, and cheerful couple, and even without doing any sort of philanthropic work, just your presence would be enough to potentially change people’s lives for the better
Your wit and intellect would provide a healthy contrast to Mercedes' constant benevolence and optimism, and she would be able to help you ground yourself when you are catastrophizing and anxious
To compliment that, you would be able to help her set her fear of disappointing others aside and make hard choices when she needs to
Mercedes isn't necessarily as scholarly as Annette and Linhardt (though she did enjoy her time at the Royal Academy of Magic), but she still values her education, and she would enjoy listening to you talk about the things you are interested in and she would enjoy learning from you
Both of you are very patient, and it would provide a relaxing and calm atmosphere
Though, a problem could be presented if you are both too patient- neither of you alone likes to make difficult decisions and risk hurting or disappointing others, but i think that this would be easier to do if you worked together
Magic and fantastical stories!! i could really see you both taking evening dates and telling each other stories, and she would highly appreciate your creativity and encourage your passion for what you do
If you like writing paranormal and ghost stories, she’d love it even more!! She loves spooky stories and an air of fantastical mystery
Career-wise, your interests in anthropology and sociolinguistics combined with her desire to serve and help people would make a dynamic duo
Your understanding of human history and nature would provide a wealth of foundation for her to understand where people come to her from, emotionally and culturally, and the outcome of your combined careers would be stellar!
If you guys got together, I would struggle seeing an outcome where you kept your careers separate- the chemistry you have together concerning your desires for life and the word around you are too magnetic too keep apart
Mercedes would be very welcoming and accepting of your sensitivity and anxiety; she always knows what to say if you're down, and she wouldn't have to tread carefully to avoid offending or hurting you
Awareness of people's sensitivities and how to build healthy relationships without prying at them is second nature to her
Reading people and responding to them to meet them where they are is maybe one of her favorite things to do in life, and doing this with you would bring her a good sense of worth in life
Mercedes has a few opinions of her own, but she is generally soft-spoken and passive, and would be a great listener for when you talk about your opinions
She is very open-minded, and i’d argue that she doesn’t have a single judgemental bone in her body (well, except maybe against uptight nobles cough cough LORENZ)
I wouldn’t call her an agent of chaos, but I think that Mercedes really can appreciate the craziness of life the way that you do, and that she would be great at laughing the silly little things off with you
She has a wonderful knack for appreciating and accepting the world as it is, and I think that this would bring you a lot of peace when you start to over-complicate things mentally, as she would be able to ground you
She would ADORE your curiosity and interest in learning everything that you can, and she would aspire to be this way herself
She spent so much of her life simply trying to survive, especially after fleeing the empire and regretting leaving Emile behind, and having someone around her who is trying to thrive would be invigorating for her
MBTI-wise, this would be a “golden pair”, as IXFJ and XNTP are often listed as being such, especially IXFJ and ENTP, which if I had to type you by your description to me, I’d put you as ENTP over INTP, with an Fi/Fe subtype
The creativity that comes with your Ne would be very well recieved by Mercedes’ Fe, as she would be the perfect listener for everything you have to say, and she would be super interested in it as well!
Though she does use Ti as her tool function, she would be constantly amazed by how you use it so fluently
Her Ti tertiary tool would be able to appreciate your dominant/auxiliary Ti, without encouraging it to the point where you overwhelm yourself
In conclusion, I see you and Mercedes both as a sweet and soft couple but also with the subtleties of a power couple, and I think you would enjoy a long and happy relationship with each other!
2. Claude
As previously mentioned, I still view Mercedes as a more ideal match for you, but I think that you and Claude would have good chemistry as well
He has a lot of that humanistic personality that Mercedes has, but his is far more subtle and jaded from his history
Mainly, this jaded aspect comes from how he was treated in his childhood, although he doesn’t discuss it with just anyone, as one of those effects from being bullied as a kid is him having some serious trust issues
Pre-timeskip Claude would be a struggle in a romantic relationship, as his Fe isn’t very well developed and based on your profile, I think a partner with developed Fe is something you need
Post-timeskip, however, this problem would be eliminated, as by then, his Fe has very clearly developed a lot more (though it is still flawed), as demonstrated with his love-hate relationship for humanity in his A support; he hates the way that people choose to be discriminatory and mean towards each other, but he also sees the possibility for redemption and he has a genuine desire to work harmony back into the world
Some of his interactions with characters such as Cyril and occasionally Hilda show that his Fe even post-timeskip isn’t quite fully developed, but he does value the function, thus displaying a necessary element for compatibility
xNTP-ENTP couples do work out really well, but obviously, some compromises have to be made
Mainly in regards to extraversion/making sure everyone gets to talk enough, and taking care of real-world responsibilities like housework and chores
Both of you are incredibly passionate about what you do, and this would sit well with the other
I struggle to imagine Claude in the long-run with anyone who doesn’t hold a sort of fire in their heart
Your intense curiosity and desire to learn would match his own really well, and I could see you guys doing long dates where you take the full day to sit down in the library and dissect some idea that you had
Your interest in anthropology and sociolinguistics might be one of the best parts of this match! His life goal is to create a more united world, and your wealth of knowledge about history and culture would make having you around an invaluable asset for him
Just like he does with Byleth in the game, he’ll probably pick you up at first for your usefulness, but then he’ll slowly start to actually trust you and he’ll find himself desiring a relationship with you
Both of you would be the king and queen of meme, and it’d be a wonderful sight to anyone around you
Your interactions when you’re memeing would be absolutely off the shits, and your absurdist senses of humor setting off sparks with each other would be legendary to behold
He would adore these interactions with you, and the memories he has of them would be a treasure he keeps close
He can’t stand super uptight people, and you’re fairly laid-back yourself, so this is perfect in this sense
You both have a good sense of when it’s the right time to be carefree and when it’s the right time to take note, though
Although this ratio may seem more skewed towards the laid-back aspect in the perception of people like Lorenz and Lysithea, for you two, it’d be perfect
Normally with an ExxP/ExxP couple, I worry a lot about communication, but I think you two would be better off than most in this aspect
The fact that you have an extraverted side but are also a good listener is the saving grace here
Claude is a listener as well, but more often than not, he has something running in the back of his mind, so while he would be a good listener, he may not be as attentive as you’d like
He would feel bad about this, but as hard as he tries to always listen to you, sometimes he can’t help but letting his mind float back to whatever scheme he’s been plotting
If you’re ok with this, though, the road will be less bumpy- he might even appreciate it if your own mind drifts when he’s talking to you, as he would feel less guilty that way
He would try his best to help you when you are catastrophizing, but it would be a mixed bag of skittles for him
On the positive, he overthinks a lot himself, so he fully understands how you got to where you are
On the negative, he isn’t a very emotional person himself, so he has seldom reached catastrophization himself, so he doesn’t really know the best ways to handle it
He eventually learns what works and what doesn’t, but at first, it’s gonna be the effort that counts
Both of you are giant nerds and this would work rather well
He would love roleplaying and playing games with you given the free time, and you’d always be recommending books to each other to read
As for your sensitivity, Claude may not be the best at handling that, but he certainly tries
He’s generally pretty good at reading people, but with what upsets you, you may have to tell him a bit more directly for him to really understand so that he can avoid it
Claude would, though, be a boo in that he’d make you feel like the queen of the whole damned world
Insecurity??? Nah, you’re too cute/smart/amazing for that
He just loves to shower you in teases and he’d tell you every day that he loves you
If you want a flirt and a himbo, congrats you’ve found one
One other thing that makes me less confident about this pairing than the former is that Claude is a bit more free-spirited than you
He would do his best to anchor himself to you, but it’d be difficult to satisfy his wanderlust if you dislike travel- he doesn’t want to leave you, and he hates making you feel bad
To conclude, I think this has a lot of powerful potential, but it also has a few potential holes that make it somewhat less ideal
He needs someone that can teach him to value his own emotions and not just look at what everyone else wants, and I don’t know if you’d be able to reach him on that
3. Dorothea
Both of you have a lot of opinions, but you’re both careful about sharing them
I could see her as your kickass partner in crime
I am less passionate about this pairing than I am with your matches with Mercie and Claude, but I still think this has a lot of potential as well
Yyou would be able to teach the other how to appreciate the other!!
Lots of "you're pretty/no you" style interactions
Idk how else to explain this but your vibes synergize well???? Like both of you are very humanistic, but you're a bit more open and direct in your approach with it than she is
Both of you are highly creative but in different ways and this would work well
I think she would be like a muse figure for you and vice versa!
Both of you are into classical arts, which is grounds for a lot of fun dates and fun times
I can envision a lot of museum and opera dates
and painting dates
Y'all would just have so much fun being creative together
You both have a preppy side, but you'd be the nerd of the two, and she would poke playful fun at you whilst harboring an interest in everything you have to say
Both of you are very thoughtful and you'd find satisfaction in having someone who reciprocates the amount of effort you put into the relationship
Both of you have an enjoyment of fashion, and i could see you both having a fun time picking each other's outfits out and doing the other's hair and makeup
She would really like to flirt with you to try and get a reaction out of you
She would HIGHLY appreciate that you try hard to be an open-minded and understanding person
She wishes she had more of those in her life before she met you
Y'all would be such meme queens like...everyone else would label you guys as goals in terms of keeping a healthy air of humor around you
She is just so doting and passionate with you and she would try so hard every day to melt away your insecurities and worries
As a couple you guys have SO much chemistry; like once you guys sit down for tea and start talking, you find yourselves talking for hours, and Dorothea would fall more in love with your intellect and wealth of knowledge each day
The reason I still put this as lower than Claude and Mercedes is because I feel like it might be more one-sided, with Dorothea more attracted to you than you might be to her
I feel like she would be able to help you with your anxiety in a different way than Mercedes
Like she has gone through a lot of similar stuff with her past in its relationship to her self-esteem, and you'd both have a lot to learn from e/o here
This would work either romantically or platonically
For friendships, I’d consider: Ashe, Annette, Hilda, Ignatz, Marianne, and Bernadetta!
Feel free ofc to respond to me with any thoughts/questions you have on this, and I hope you liked it!! Sorry to keep you waiting for so long- I wanted to ensure quality on this
Can I have a matchup please I’m 24 and panromantic asexual (is not turned off by sex). I’m an art history major who is aspiring to work at a museum one day. I mainly want to be a research assistant when it comes to working at the museum because I love to do research about things. I also just really love stories any kind of stories really and my love for stories can be found in my love for art, podcasts, video games, movies, books, history.
if something is weird, tacky or creepy most likely I will love it. I have severe anxiety and depression and in order to cope with that I tend to act childish and goofy because I love to make people laugh and acting that way makes me happy. I also struggle with ADHD. mainly the ADD side of it the only time i get really hyper is when I’m extremely excited about something.
Overall I try to be a cute friendly lovable girl who has an open view of the world and sees the beauty of everything. and I just want to share all of my passions with the rest of the world.
I match you with... Claude!
what initially catches his attention is your library check out list: The Virtue of the Wind Dragon, The Devil Brawlers of Enbarr, The Sands and Stories of Almyra, Flora and Fauna of Brigid: Botanical Studies, Tales from Dagda: Myths and Legends
he finds it adorable that you can’t seem to go anywhere without you being distracted by something else—be it a book in your hand, the Academy cats or dogs waiting to be pet, a friend in the distance you managed to spot before you run towards them to ask them how their day went
the moment he decides to make his move is when he notices you surrounded by your classmates, animatedly recounting the tale of a man lost in a sandstorm who stumbled upon a cave of wonders somewhere in the expanse of the Almyran desert. you even managed to get Hilda to switch seats to hear the story better. (a feat indeed.)
he stops you after class to ask you about a book he saw you check out of the library a few days ago. he suggests that the two of you have tea sometime. he’d love to hear all about what you’ve read. he knows quite a bit about the topic as well. maybe you could exchange notes?
as he spends more time with you, he manages to dissect the layers of your personality even further. he never brings it up unless you do, and does his best to check in on you personally (aaaand maybe sometimes in secret—but you’ll never know that)
he makes the effort to make you genuinely laugh, and assures you that with him & your classmates, you never have to feel compelled to put on a show. they’re all there to support you
overall, he loves how you have this boundless admiration for the world around you. claude values information & secrets as any schemer would, and like you, has an obsession for any kind of story
Hi! May I please request a 3H ship? I'm a bi male! I enjoy making people laugh, and I have a "diverse" sense of humour, so to say. I've been told I'm kind and polite, though I can often put other's needs before my own. I like taking care of people and educating myself (even though I'm lazy and often say truly Dumb things). I'm interested in international relations, politics, and music history. My hobbies are singing, video games, and reading non-fiction. Thanks!
I match you up with Annette!
you bump into her in the library, quite literally, books and parchment falling to the floor in an extravagant display of clumsiness. of course, the two of you are much too polite to assign any blame to the other, bending down to clean the mess you’ve made — bumping heads and brushing fingers and quiet giggles signifying a new friendship formed.
she’s perhaps a bit too eager to help out, and you have a habit of putting others first, and it almost becomes a friendly competition of benevolence. between the daily greetings and exchange of jokes, it’s almost a wonder how the two of you didn’t meet sooner. you’re cut from the same cloth, but sewn by different experiences. the two of you can often be found collapsed in the library, heads ducked underneath piles of books, and it’s hard to tell if you’ve overworked yourself or just gave into the temptation of laziness. either way, the study dates become much more frequent… just outside the library, this time.
you start humming under your breath one day, too engrossed in your book to notice, and she absolutely adores your singing. you catch her humming along to the same songs, though the first time you actually walk in on her singing, she turns redder than her hair and yells at you before scurrying off. and now you’re apologizing in song because apparently it’s only fair. really, it was only a matter of time before you’re singing duets with one another in the quiet escape of night, huddled in the corners of the monastery surrounded by books and pastries.
it was as if the world was at your fingertips. you both were as close as can be, partners in crime, a half of a whole. the world may throw you into the strangest situations, tides of war shifting uncontrollably, but having each other’s back is constant, a grounding force to be reckoned with. the two of you may not always sing in the same tune, but you dance with a shared beat. from strangers to best friends, to lovers that can cross the stars.
in the middle of writing my thesis yet started this blog to scratch an itch. please read the rules before requesting!
rules:
currently not accepting any character/character requests
sorry kids. i can’t have my brain breaking with more than one character rn
limit of 3 characters per imagine/headcanon request
be specific with your asks! the more descriptive the prompts, the better
for matchups, please limit yourself to 3 requests/asks. also, do let me know your gender or house preferences
examples of things you could tell me: your natal chart, MBTI type, hobbies, future job aspirations, ticks you have, etc. etc.
will do nsfw requests (kinks, scenarios, etc.), but I have right to refuse requests that I feel are inappropriate (eg. incest, pedophilia, etc.) or that I am uncomfortable writing about
Hi! If you don’t mind, could I please get a matchup? I’m bi, so no gender preference! I’m the type that doesn’t speak unless spoken to, but really, I’m just going with the flow. I’m clever (and a bit of a sadist) and I take great joy in messing with people out of spite. I’m blunt, which can come off as rude, but I’m just bad with words. I can become really devoted to the few things that interest me, and I like to draw and write stories in my free time. Thank you!
[ i don’t mind at all, anon! also congrats on being our first matchup <3 ]
i match you up with claude — i think the banter between the two of you would be really entertaining! he would also be able to take your bluntness in stride and read your true intentions. i can see you becoming his Scheming Partner... or maybe you’d make some fun competition for him! as clever as he is, you might be able to give him a run for his money. lastly, i have a feeling that he’d be interested in your art and stories, and i can see him trying to get you to show off your work!
i can also see you with felix! you might be off to a rocky start with him due to your mischievousness — perhaps you’d like messing with him? — but i think that with time, he’d (begrudgingly) find you endearing, and you would end up meshing well together! he would appreciate your bluntness, and you two strike me as a couple that would be 100% candid with each other.
hi, can I get a matchup? preferably guys, but I’m not against being with a lady! i’m socially flexible and can easily become acquaintances with mostly anyone but hold most at arm’s length due to past issues leading to severe trust issues and low confidence, which i can typically hide very well. i have a keen eye for small details and love to make others smile, tending to try and make the more serious/reserved ones laugh more. /1
i may come off as gentle but im told to be stronger than i think and quicker on my feet than i look. even so I dont like confrontation and would prefer if things can be talked out first, but if worst comes to worst I’m not against putting myself in front of danger for others if I know that I can take the hit / hit back just as hard if not more. i like taking naps and going into woods (and hopefully getting lost because i find it fun), and hobbies include dancing and giving advice. /2 tysm!!
[ you seem like a really sweet person, anon! i… might have gotten carried away! ]
i match you with bernadetta! it would take some time due to her shyness and paranoia, but with your kindness and gentle disposition, you’re able to gradually coax her to open up. as she spends more time around you, she starts to eagerly await your company, and with time, seek you out herself. your advice puts her worries at ease and she can’t help but be entranced by your movements as you dance. i can even see you getting her to join you for a dance, a smile on her face as you gently twirl her around.
she greatly admires your inner strength and sees you as both a pillar and an example to follow. she feels safe around you, whether it be in the monastery or out on the battlefield; you’re extremely important to her. from here, it wouldn’t take long for her trust and admiration to grow into something more.
these feelings don’t change when war breaks out, and you’re separated for years - she’s running into your arms when she sees your face again. although she’s still quite skittish, she’s grown some confidence that she didn’t have before. she tries to give back to you in her own ways, from gifting you a hand-crocheted plushie of your favorite animal to watching your back on the battlefield and lodging an arrow into an enemy that got just a bit too close. she’s grown out of her shell enough that you might even have a chance at getting her to join you for a walk through the forest - as long as you promise to stay close to her, of course. and with this newfound determination, she works up the courage to propose to you at the end of the war. should you accept her proposal, she strives to make you as happy as you made her.
