Hoshidan Festival: Peri and Ophelia Parent-Child Conversation
I refreshed myself on Peri and Odin’s support conversations before writing this, and realized I’d totally forgotten about it. It’s cute! It involves Peri going to an anger management class and becoming the head of their society. While their conversation isn’t actually mentioned, it kind of ties in here, as Peri seems to think of her murderous tendencies as a problem and is proud of Ophelia for coming up with a self-control spell. Also, this is one of the few places int he game where Peri’s mismatched irises are mentioned! That’s pretty cool. I wonder if Ophelia would someday be able to manufacture a spell to change her own eye color, hmm... Or maybe she’ll invent colored contacts.
Ophelia: (quivering with anger)
“...O menacing heart of mine, still yourself… I beg of you! Be still!!
Urgh…
At a time like this I suppose I have no choice but to use that spell, the new one I learned to acheive greater control over myself… Counsel Baganded!
……
Whew. I think that’s a little better.”
(T/N: Since many of Odin and Ophelia’s spells have parallels in the FE world, I tried to look up one for コンソール・バガンデッド, but couldn’t find anything, so I just transliterated it literally. If anyone knows what it’s supposed to be, please let me know so I can correct it.)
Peri: “Ophelia, what’s wrong? You look really troubled.”
Ophelia: “Mother…
…I don’t really understand myself lately… If things don’t go the way I wish them to, I get the urge to annihilate the people of this world…”
(T/N: That sounds a little extreme, but I’m certain she’s specifically talking about killing everyone within sight in this outrealm world, not that she literally wants to kill everyone in their home world. Because, wow, that would be a little intense.)
Peri: “Huh?”
Ophelia: “Isn’t it terrible? I was just feeling that way right now, so I cast a self-control spell on myself.”
Peri: “That’s a wonderful spell. But, if you feel that way, that might mean…”
Ophelia: “Aaaaah, I feel as though I am teetering on the edge!
We took great lengths to come all the way out here for a special festival,
and I so desired to go to that stall to buy dumplings and eat them with you…
But now the bandits have razed that stall so it no longer exists…”
(more angry shaking)
“Aaaaah! I once again I feel the need to kill all those bandits!”
Peri: “N-no, Ophelia! You need to calm down! That… That must be me. You got that from me. That’s all my fault!”
Ophelia: “Huh? Is that so?”
Peri: “When I’m upset, I want to swing a weapon at someone. And then when I see the pretty red blood splattering around, I feel better. So I really understand how you feel.”
Ophelia: “It, it’s true that when I get like this, seeing something red calms me down… That’s why I usually carry around this sacred red stone, the ‘Bloody Fire Opal.’ So I see, this is your blood within me… This is the power I inherited from you…”
Peri: “Ophelia, you look really sad again. I’m sorry… That’s not a very nice thing to get from your mommy…”
Ophelia: “Oh, it’s not that at all! There is absolutely no reason for you to apologize! I am almost literally trembling with joy at the mysteries of the blood that courses through my body!”
Peri: “R-really?”
Ophelia: “Yes. Though this blood of mine is rather unsafe, if I use a spell to suppress those murderous urges then I probably will do no serious harm…
More importantly, I’m happy to know I take after you.”
Peri: “Ophelia…! Thanks. I’m very happy. I mean, you mostly take after Odin, so to find a way you take after me… That makes me happy.”
Ophelia: “Well, if I inherited anything from you, I wish it had been your eye color.”
Peri: “My eye color?”
Ophelia: “Yes! Your eyes are different colors, Mother! It is astoundingly amazing!! There aren’t many people like that around…
It really makes it feel like you’re a chosen one!”
Peri: “Well then you and me need to spend a lot of time together! If we do, maybe your eyes will slowly start to change color.”
Ophelia: “Wow, for real?! Just thinking about it makes my maiden’s heart flutter!”
(T/N: The "wow, for real?!” is in Peri’s childish way of talking. Hard to render that in English when it’s such a short line! Ophelia and Peri don’t speak all that differently, honestly.)
Peri: “Ahaha, it sounds like we talk the same way all of a sudden. The day that your eyes change color can’t be far away! So, let’s go and smash up some bandits. We’ll spend time together after!”
Ophelia: “Yeah! Behold, the twinkling of Ophelia Dusk, as she dreams of differently colored irises!”

It's the 90s, and "Pietro" has just entered the show
We are then introduced to Marinette, friendly neighbourhood single 20s lady who owns the craft store near town square
Pietro is exploring town with the kids when all of a sudden, Billy and Tommy run off from him and down the streets
Pietro being himself, zooms over to them, only to discover them laughing with a nice lady
A very pretty lady
Who was wearing a spotty dress with a headband that looked like antennas
"I'm Pietro, the kid's uncles. You are?"
"oh! I didn't know Wanda had a brother in town. My name is Mari, I own the crafts store downtown."
He gets a big brain idea
"seeing as it's Halloween, you wouldn't mind if we popped in and made a few impromptu costumes for ourselves?"
She laughs, he lights up
"Sure! I love to make costumes myself. I made this dress and headband actually"
Wow, talent.
Like, honest to god talent
"could you give us a hand then?" Pietro stage whispers "i'm not the best with the whole 'artsy craftsy' gig"
aksldkjfhalksjdfasdfjk mari thinks he's cute, like really cute
like, guy who looks pretty good-looking, doesn't look like he knows what he's doing with the kids but giving it his utmost best and being a cool uncle? sign her up
"sure, why don't we head in, i'll see what i can do for Billy and Tommy, and maybe even you"
boops his nose because she's marinette
takes Tommy's hand (to stop him from running off maybe cus she sensed his powers with ladybug senses and everything) and they go off to the shop
pietro is w h i p p e d
billy being like "dude, you're so lame"
YO I'M UP FOR THIS TO BE ADOPTED, OR BECOME A CHAIN. I'M PASSING IT ON, MAKE UP YOUR VERSION OF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT, TOTALLY FINE WITH THAT HAPPENING
