Just a Cynical Optimist

Dumping grounds for any fanart I might feel the urge to create and share with no particular style. Plus the occasional reblog.

K. I’m halfway done.

A Weiss did not fall AU. It’s been maybe a couple of years and Weiss is still looking for her team, training and fighting hard while discovering new ways to use her semblance along the way.

She wears the remnant of Ruby’s cloak around her neck longing for that fading scent of roses that keeps her partner close to her heart.

Ok listen, I love Myrtenaster, but I just want to see Weiss summon that big ass Arma Gigas sword and cleave her way through anyone and anything that stands in her way.

Team RWBY.

it’s hard to remember that u have no obligation in life other than to be kind and give love. like. you were not put on this earth to work a part time job or get a degree or have a fancy career. you were put on this earth to smile and make other people smile, to spread happiness. your reason for living doesn’t have to go any deeper than ‘living’. just breathe. make friends with a plant. drink your water. i fucking love you.

Happy FE3H Anniversary!

This game introduced me to a wonderful franchise, one that I am currently working my way through, and though I’ve come to love many other characters in this fandom, this tiny emperor and her strike force will always have a special place in my heart!

Crimson Flower Edeleth.

I just had a thought -

So we know Koei Tecmo had a huge hand in making 3H, right? And by all accounts improved it considerably.

Now, I don't expect amazing plots from the Warriors spinoff games...

But knowing how much KT helped out 3H, and how much they liked Edelgard, what if in a 3H version of FE Warriors (which is likely to happen; you know it is), we finally got to truly destroy TWSITD?

I'd take the dumbest excuse for a plot and more generic OCs just for the chance to directly control El and Dimitri and Byleth hacking up Cornelia and Thales. And all the rest of them.

(I don't consider the end of VW even to have necessarily wiped them out. And it's still a crime we didn't get to on CF.)

[zaaschila]

Yes. YES! I need this in my life.

Silver Snow Edeleth.

Some doodles to expand on yesterday’s FE3H Pokemon AU. Throwing in an Axew because Edelgard not having a Haxorus would be such a waste.

An Ordinary Life - 1/3

This is a story I’ve been trying to start, and kept getting stymied on and restarting, for a very long time. It’s a simple story, about two people very much in love, who rarely get to exist as others do. Who live lives full of great deeds and great challenges, but have few moments of solitude and peace. Who are extraordinary, but rarely ordinary. So… I wanted to give ordinary to them. To Edelgard, who grieves the ordinary life her siblings never had, and longs for a lazy day. To Byleth, who has only recently learned to want or need anything beyond what is necessary to live. Even if the respite for both of them is brief, it is still just that: a respite.

I wanted it up today for El’s birthday.

I wanted to write it at all for @lysissisyl. Ti amo, cuore mio.

Rating: G (the third part will be very much M-rated, but will only be available on AO3)

Also on AO3

Light Edelgard since I felt like I needed to draw something traditional (and I wanted to make sure I had something to post on her birthday!) 

Playing with shapes.

[zaaschila]

Ready for a new dawn! Here’s my monthly contribution to this wonderful fandom. A FE3H Pokemon AU illo to celebrate this brave tiny lord’s birthday!

I headcannon a young Edelgard with an Eevee that eventually evolves into an Umbreon. Because of course El would train on sleepless nights to keep any and all nightmares at bay.

Also Corviknight because even though it’s not an eagle..how could I not?
