What about... Dorothea and Hubert palette swap?

[askhubertvonvestra]

(Lyrics from All of You from Encanto)

Dorothea: Hey, Ferdinand. Why so blue?

Ferdinand: I... just got so much love inside~

Dorothea: Well y'know I got this friend of mine, too. Remember Hubert?

Hubert, pops out of nowhere: Ok I'll take it from here, goodbye!

You talk so loud~ You take care of your mother and you make her proud! You write your own poetry every night when you go to sleep- -And I'm seizing the moment, so would you wake up and notice me?

Ferdinand, stunned: Hubert... I see you...

Hubert: And I hear you!~

Dorothea and Bernadetta in the background: YES!

Ferdinand: Let's get married~

Hubert: Slow down!

Dorothea informed me she was working on various plays regarding our time during the war. I should have realized this is what she had in mind far sooner.

If nothing else, I can properly inform her on how I would dismiss someone from my company if necessary. I suppose she can be forgiven on account of taking... creative license. She wasn’t present, after all, when we...

Do excuse me. I’ve business to attend to with our songstress.

May I offer you some Ferdibert to brighten up your day?

Omg this is adorable, thank you for sharing 🧡🖤

Excuse Me! If you don't mind... Inverted colour palette of Hubert?

[askhubertvonvestra]

Hubert if you were Madrigal, which gift would you get?

Hm. I can’t say I enjoy the notion of residing in a living house with a relative that has super-sensitive hearing... But in this hypothetical scenario, it does seem fitting that I would have premonitions of only ill omens. My reputation would be much the same in that case as it is now.

Of course, that is what I assume the outcome would be if the only options were those already administered by this... magical candle. If the gifts were open-ended, it’s far more difficult to say. It does seem that the candle swiftly ran out of useful abilities and began doling out curses.

Hello! Could you invert Ferdinand's colour palette?

Hubert what's the name of the winter holidays in Fodlan? We call it Christmas here.

Also when are you going to join Askr and participate in the winter festivities with Ferdinand? Get your ice themed weapon and let's go!

(seriously I'd waste my orbs on F/H christmas duo)

There are various winter holidays in Fódlan. Faerghus in particular seems to emphasize the season, given the frigidity of the area. They can't afford to stay sequestered when the weather is cold and as such, they embrace it. By and large.

The majority of other regions are content with the simply titled winter festival that precedes the new year celebration. Often, the Blue Sea Star features prominently in most festivities, as it cannot be seen during the winter months and many prefer it to the biting cold. As I understand it, certain villages will honor the winter solstice in much the same manner as cities mark the winter festival. There is singing, dancing, and bonfires, and you are meant to pass time in the company of those you hold dear.

Religiously speaking, the monastery's anniversary taking place in winter typically overpowered any other celebration in the areas surrounding Garreg Mach. Prayer was encouraged to support the so-called goddess' prayers for peace from her sanctuary in the heavens. Her prayers fall on deaf ears now, as humanity's torment has gone unheard by her kind.

As for Askr, it's difficult to say what the summoner uses to decide who will visit the realm during which season. Time moves differently there. I couldn't tell you how long it has been since I was there last, or when I might go again. All in all, I would prefer not to attend in thematic attire if it can be avoided. If Ferdinand were to request it, I suppose I could make the exception.

[I might even download the app again for that, lol. It's been so long, though, and I'm swamped with this move too. RIP FEH app on my phone, oops. Summon extra for me?? xD]

Hubert. Would you prefer being stuck in a room with Dr. Strange, Iron Man or Loki?

*no warping cuz Loki and Stephen can do that*

To be fully honest with you, I imagine I would find Loki more tolerable by disposition than Dr. Strange or Iron Man. The latter two are primarily full of self-important bluster by way of sustained delusions of grandeur with no visible end to them. Meanwhile, it is feasible that Loki could be brought to see reason and drop his pretentious act. Momentarily, perhaps. It would be a welcome reprieve regardless, and its potential to occur far outweighs the insufferable egos of Mr. Stark and Dr. Strange.

Make no mistake: my ideal would be to avoid all of them. But such is the way of being stuck. The verb itself implies that I would be unwillingly in their midst, and if I had to choose one of the three on the grounds of interpersonal dynamics alone, it would be Loki.

If we are talking ethics in a crisis, however, my response would be Mr. Stark. Where he cannot be trusted to make sound choices in his personal life, he can be relied upon to operate in the collective best interest as he sees it whenever clear danger is present. His perspective is typically not far off the mark. In most cases. Loki’s alliance in that scenario would last only as long as the hazard, and not a second past it. HIs various betrayals are as time-consuming as they are tedious, and I would much prefer not to contend with that immediately on the heels of an emergency.

By and large, I believe Dr. Strange and I would spend most of our time in competition or contention rather than cooperating. He simply isn’t worth the risk or my irritation.
