"i’m sorry but female lords who are allowed to drive the plot instead of just reacting to it will always hit. she is not just “important,” she is THE problem and THE moment and i respect her so bad for it"
"A lot of characters in Three Houses are shaped by the system; Edelgard is one of the few who is actively trying to destroy and replace it. That makes her interesting immediately, but what really holds my attention is the tension between her conviction and her damage. She isn’t a clean symbol of revolution, and she isn’t just a tragic victim lashing out either. She’s intensely focused, emotionally guarded, often ruthless, and very clearly carrying a level of fear and isolation that affects every choice she makes. I think that’s why she inspires such strong reactions. She isn’t easy to flatten into hero or villain. She feels like someone whose ideals matter to her enough that she’s willing to become frightening in pursuit of them, and whether you agree with her or not, that gives her real weight as a character."
"edelgard is just sooooo good as a character. like even putting route stuff aside for a second, she has such a strong presence every time she’s on screen. she feels smart and deliberate and like she’s always thinking three steps ahead, but she never feels robotic to me. there’s always this sense that she cares very deeply and is just holding it super tightly under control. and honestly i think that’s a big part of why people get so attached to her. she’s powerful, but she’s also lonely in a way that really comes through. plus i just like characters who know what they want and actually move the story instead of waiting for it to happen to them. she’s memorable for a reason"
"yes king skip class!! yes king avoid effort whenever possible!! yes king be annoyingly smarter than everybody around you while acting like you’d rather be asleep!! he’s just SO fun. and i love that underneath all the laziness and bitchiness there actually is a lot of care there, he’s just allergic to expressing it in a normal way. incredible character. perfect nap gremlin. would let him infodump at me for hours"
"linhardt is just extremely my type of fire emblem character honestly. i love characters who seem kind of checked out at first and then you realise they’re actually paying attention to way more than they let on. he’s funny, he’s dry, he’s kind of rude in a way i find very charming, and i like that he doesn’t pretend to care about things he doesn’t care about. also i think he has a really nice balance where he can be comic relief a lot of the time but never feels shallow because of it. he’s just enjoyable. every time he’s in a support i know i’m probably going to have a good time"
