some more Tanwen

More thoughts on that OC AU post because now I have AUs and characterisation on the brain. Here are my characters in order of easiest to hardest to put in Situations: Keiji: Easiest by far. It's a rare AU where I even really have to think about where to put him. He's a drifter by nature, is easily entertained with violence and sex, and doesn't have some troublesome moral alignment that can limit his options. His only real limit is that he's an absolutely terrible protagonist, by virtue of the above lack of care and lack of moral alignment.

Tanwen: Also easy, but on the opposite axis from Keiji. She's easy not because she's a genre chameleon but because she's such a sunshine that she changes the tone of any world she's put in. She will carve out some small foothold of hope and kindness and she will remind anyone of their heart, because she's a radiant beacon of fervent hope and it's impossible to engage with her without baring something true. But also when I'm not breaking her naivety on the horrors of war any story she's in will inevitably become a romcom and i'm not sorry

Val: As the third former DnD character in the list, Val's still pretty decent troublemaker/adventurer/hero material. I'm also usually fairly sure what tone I want to hit for them and where I want to put them in AUs, but they're in third because the places they can go are fairly limited. While an arc about recovering one's identity and agency can go multiple ways, Val's being as strongly tied into Temperance as a maternal figure makes her an inevitable tagalong. Does mean that any new AU usually means a new way for her to die, which is cathartic.

Althea: Easy to adapt, not always easy to make relevant. Any world can do with a spoiled young woman from an out of touch upper class who just wants to be adored and exercise some small breath of control in her own life. Her trouble comes when there's adventuring afoot, because she's perfectly content to sit in her position of privilege and leave the hard work to other people. Not a good protagonist, but in any setting where she can lounge around and be pretty she's very easy to adapt. Themes of being the least favoured daughter and internalised misogyny are pretty broadly interpretable.

Jay: A man sent from hell to torture me personally. Not impossible to adapt, or even all that hard, but he's much less sculptable than any of the above. Jay is always Jay, no matter how much I try to throw curveballs at him. He's stubborn enough to retain much more of himself across universes than most, and still he refuses to fucking narrate anything. Learn to have a conversation. Be literally anything other than a bear. I beg you.

Angharad: Worst worst worst worst worst. This man both is and occupies one single niche and I refuse to let him be more. He's all my worst arrogance and judgemental snobbishness and he deserves to suffer for it. He can go in any AU where he can have an intellectual superiority complex, and has zero interest in any others.

Bonus round: James Atlas Trick question, James is both the best and worst. It doesn't count as an AU when he's just The Same Guy.

So. Since Tanwen isn’t trying to eat me, giving a gift would help right? Dragons in a lot of stories like jewels and stuff soooooo

Dragon trainers of rotumblr, what do y’all think of this as a gift for Tanwen? She’s a roaring moon btw (paradox salamence)

Hope you don’t mind the ping @official-raihan but you’re the only dragon specialist I know the url of OTL

Uhh what are some fluffy Three Houses headcanons of yours? Like, cute ships or moments you like to think about or things like that.

You’ve come to the right place! Three Houses has been amazing and I’m excited to share my headcanons and such.

Shippy things:

• Dimileth is definitely at the top of my ship list for Three Houses. As for headcanons, I personally like to think that Dimitri and Byleth hold hands a lot after the war. It helps anchor Dimitri in the present and he just loves his wife so much. They often give each other gentle hand squeezes as a silent way of telling the other that they’re there for each other.

• Lysithea and Linhardt are another cute ship. I like to think that after the war they sometimes go on fishing trips. There, they curl up under the shade of the trees and nap while the Great Tree Moon’s breezes descend from the Oghma Mountains. Sometimes, Lysithea lets Linhardt rest his head in her lap while she runs her fingers through his hair. After that, he’s out like a light. Other times, they fall asleep with Lysithea’s head resting on his shoulder.

General things:

• I like to think that the narration that comes with every month pre timeskip is Jeralt reading from a book of Fódlan lore to his wife while she’s pregnant with Byleth.

• Since we don’t really know the name of Byleth’s mom, I refer to her as Tanwen. I like to think that Byleth gets her appetite from her.

• Whenever Byleth recruits someone new to the class, Mercedes, Annette, and Ashe go all out with welcoming them to the Blue Lions. The amount of pastries that they bake is astonishing to the new class members, but it’s a memorable way to be welcomed into a new class.

• I like to think the medallion that Byleth wears belonged to Tanwen when she was still alive. When deep in thought, Byleth’s finger traces the faded star carving on the medallion unconsciously.

• Bernadetta is anxious when she’s assigned stable duty, but Marianne helps her with the work, which makes it more bearable. At the end of their shift, Marianne even introduces Bernie to Dorte. Bernadetta later becomes Dorte’s rider when she promotes into a bow knight.

I have a lot more headcanons about Three Houses, so feel free to ask!
