My heart is weeping

If I had a nickel for everytime Ray Chase voiced a dead character in a duo where they're definitely gay for each other then I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice

We're gonna get new Mav crying emojis soon :]

Truly an Ask Game Tuesday.

1, 7, 8, 14, 16, 18, 25

Honestly, just answer them slowly and when you have time. These are your fan mails. You don't reply to ALL of your fan mails in one go!

Yippee I love answering questions as soon as I get them.

1. The character everyone gets wrong

Valter from fe8. Listen. I know he acts vile and Riev directly says he has raped women and it's heavily implied Valter wants to rape Eirika but please hear me out.

Valter acts like this because of the cursed lance. This isn't a story of a cruel man who hurts others for fun, it's a story of a man who fell victim to a curse. In the Duessel and Cormag A support, they say the lange only corrupts those who are already bad people and I think this is stupid cause:

A. I don't really believe in good or bad people, only good and bad actions so it doesn't make much sense that it would affect Valter but not Cormag, but whatever I guess.

B. They say Valter was always evil and the lance just made him worse but that's not giving him credit for how he was before. Maybe he had violent urges to kill and rape before, but it means he did a good job of controlling himself and not letting it show. Maybe he felt guilty that he had those urges, maybe it was something he was actively working on, only for the cursed lance to ruin all his progress.

Valter has the opportunity to be an incredibly deep and fun character but it's completely ignored because IS did not choose to flesh him out and so the fandom takes his character at face value!! I think a sacred stones remake would be good because it would allow them to flesh out Valter (and the other generals) more and he really needs it. He's such an important villain but he's treated like crap by both the devs and fandom!!!

7. What character do you hate, not because of canon, but because of the fandom?

Kahaku probably. I mean I already didn't like him very much but the fandom is infuriating. He's strange and does bad things and hurts Fushi's loved ones but people just ignore that for the sake of shipping :/

8. Common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

The spy x family manga has a good balance of showing all three protagonists equally because they're equally important (though there's a little extra attention given to Twilight because he's the protagonist protagonist) but the anime gives way too much attention to Yor and Anya and the fandom doesn't like Twilight very much so people are happy about this. It sucks because beyond being a comedy, spy x family has an amazing story but the anime reduces it to silly Yor and Anya shenanigans so there's NONE of the espionage and fictional politics that I signed up for.

14. That one thing you see in fics all the time

I don't read much fanfiction actually and I'm very picky with what little I do read.

16. You can't understand why so many people like this thing

The canaries in dungeon meshi!!! Obviously Mithrun is amazing but we hardly see the others at all, I genuinely cannot fathom why people like them when we hardly have any idea of their personalities outside of daydream hour. I didn't even remember their names until I saw people constantly posting about them. It's also just a little upsetting cause of the one extremely sexualized brown woman :(

18. It's absolutely criminal the fandom has been sleeping on...

Honestly everything in witch hat atelier. The only characters people ever post about are Qifrey and Olruggio (as a ship) and Coco and Agott (also as a ship)

It's a good manga where the fandom is being lost to shipping. It just sucks. I wish people would actually give a crap about the story or the side characters but NOPE as always people are just shipping. Also side note Coco and Agott are 12 and Coco is dealing with the severe guilt of functionally killing her mom, now is NOT the time to be worrying about getting a gf.

25. Common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

Ok so in ace attorney 4, the antagonist Kristoph has a really big secret but won't say what it is. He's executed before you can find out what it is. People hate this because it's annoying to not know but honestly I don't get it.

Kristoph is a very secretive and calculated killer, a lot like Cylira or Benedict (if Benedict killed people) and it makes perfect sense for him to never confess whatever secret he had. I like that he dies and we don't know what it was, it fits for his character.

TIME TO DO MY DUTY.

I'm gonna be really galaxy brain and include even OCs in this ask game, because WHY THE HELL NOT?! Are they "not characters?!"

Gangrel (of Fire Emblem Awakening, because I married him at least once on my playthrough. It was not an impulsive choice. It was calculated. That's what made That Me terrifying.) - 1, 9, 13, 25

Dagny (of your unknown project name?) - 2, 5, 11, 23 (if you have any! I'm just curious about how she looks).

Odeda (Dear Emperor) - 2, 3, 5, 20, 24 (for this, just choose like an existing fandom characters she can be compared to!)

FALIN (Duh.) - 4, 6, 7, 8, 23, 25

GET BOMBARDED! I'll check in during breaks in my work crunch!

Yippee let's go!!!

Gangrel!

1. What do you like or dislike about this character?

Ok I'm gonna be honest. He is not the awakening villain I think about the most and he's just kinda. there. to me. He's silly, I'll give him that, but he doesn't stick out as much as Validar, Aversa, Walhart or even Yen'Fey

9. Could you be roommates with this character?

I don't even think I'd feel safe sitting in a waiting room with him.

13. What's an emoji or symbol that reminds you of this character or that you think they'd use a lot?

Cool S. You bit your ass he draws it on his soldiers' armor out of boredom.

25. First impression of this character? How about now?

First impression was in 2020 and I thought he looked like Ganondorf's gay cousin. Now, I still think that except that I also know he's a pretty alright villain.

Dagny, from 'A pox upon your city' (working title)

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

Everything she does is for a selfish reason until Filpa gets dangerously sick and she finally admits to herself that she cares about him deeply and would do anything to save him. It's a turning point in her character arc because it allows her to have humility and accept help from Regnar whom she hates.

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think of them?

Honestly the entirety of the album queen of the night by dirt poor robins, but if I had to single out a song it'd be enchanté

11. Would you date this character?

No absolutely not. As much as I am a fan of physically strong women with big mischievous grins, (see: Ædith and Helena) Dagny is insufferable. After her character arc, she's hardly even human anymore!!

23. Favorite picture of this character?

Ancient drawing from when her story was a lot more shallow and completely different.

Odeda, the sword!!

2. Favorite thing about her?

My brother and I are figuring out how to include Christian themes in her character

3. Least favorite thing about this character?

I don't dislike anything about her, I'm being very careful to make sure she feels divine while not being quite perfect either

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Probably the trees have eyes from octopath 1

20. Which other character would be the best friend for them?

ÆDITH. LITERALLY ÆDITH!!!!! Ædith gets a lot of things about the pantheon that other people don't because of her unique experience of growing up in Odeda with beliefs that directly go against the country. Also Rurik and Yagaan but not to the same degree as Ædith.

24. What other characters from another fandom of yours reminds you of them?

Um. I don't know!!!

THE FALIN TOUDEN!!!!! YAAYAYAYYAYA!!!!!

4. If you could put this character in another piece of media, what would it be?

Octopath 1, she'd fit right in with characters like Lucia and Kit

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

ASD and abusive fathers

7. What is something the fandom does with this character that you like?

THEY MAKE HER CHUBBY!!!! FANARTISTS DRAW HER AS CHUBBY, IT'S SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!

8. What is something the fandom does with this character that you despise?

People treat Falin x Marcille as canon which I hate cause it's not canon and the ship just isn't that good. Marcille is a fine character but she's not the right gf for Falin

23. Favorite picture of this character?

This!!!

25. What was your first impression of this character? Hos about now?

Okay so a trope I really love is when a character goes MIA before the story starts. For example, in the Martian, Whatney's crew mates leave before he wakes up so he's all alone. We hear about them almost constantly but it isn't until like 40% in that we meet them for the first time. We have a good idea of them so we're somewhat prepared when we do actually meet them. It's the same with Will in stranger things, he's missing for all of season 1 but we hear about him so we already have opinions and thoughts when we properly meet him in s2.

Falin is like this. She's not there, but she haunts the narrative because everything they do is for her. She's brought up in almost every single episode and the story doesn't end until she's okay because we see it from Laios' perspective. To him, Falin is the most important thing in the world. It doesn't matter that he just saved the world from an apocalypse, he just wants to see his sister.

When we do finally meet her in episode 13 (I think it was 13), we're excited and it's so much fun to finally see her after hearing so much of her!!!

I love girls who haunt the narrative :]

Anyway now that I've read the manga, I love her even more.

[nero-vanderwolf]

Happy Father's Day everybody!!!!!!

[osvaldvvanstein]

I hope they remove some of the unnecessary SA stuff in sbr anime adaptation. That's not a lot though because unfortunately a lot more is necessary than you'd think

I hate the president and his crappy wife they should both explode

[selfdiagnosedeyemotif]

Yes as local certified yuri reader and girl who loves, Falin does have the correct qualifications to tell Chilchuck why his wife left <3

certified romance expert marcille "war crimes" donato

[selfdiagnosedeyemotif]

False alarm. Twas about to throw hands!
