āwhen this war ends, do you want to return home with me?ā (yearning)
Okay so I might be reaching but from everything that we know about Klein, you could technically argue that Dieck is one of his closest relationships or someone he wishes to get close to again (this time as an equal as seen in his supports). He obviously cares about his family overall and his friends, but itās with Dieck who he seems to be desperate to be close with. Itās in their supports and further built upon in FEH.Ā
Ramblings under the cut (WC: 787 words)
Starting off with supports in game that have been translated and in game stuff. For starters, they share the highest base support points with each other (Klein also has a 40 base point start with Clarine but theyāre siblings who grew up together so it makes sense). What is strange is how Dieck has a higher base with Klein than the rest of his supports even if he is in a mercenary company. Surely he would have a higher support base with them than some guy he was with for two years right? Sure their supports build slowly, mostly because itās Dieck trying to keep Klein from talking with him which makes sense in context and their class difference.Ā
The interesting thing is what Klein does throughout the supports. In all of them, itās Klein reaching out and trying to talk to Dieck. Now what is interesting is in their B support which he literally goesĀ āwhen this war ends, do you want to return home with me?ā which regardless of context reads like a confession. After all, you donāt tell just anyone to go home with you after a war. Sure they knew each other when Klein is a child and so forth but why does Klein think itās so important to get Dieck to come back to the estate with him? It reads like some young man trying to get the person theyāre dating to come home to see their parents.Ā
Then thereās their whole A support which is very very interesting when paralleled with Kleinās support with Elphin. With Elphin, it is another support where the two characters share old memories though in this one Klein does not recall the whole exchange. Heās a toddler so around 1-3 years old when it happens. What is interesting is how in his support with Dieck, Klein is the one who tells the story and he is around 4 years old when it happens and he still remembers this whole event (sure itās traumatic but itās less about what he feels and more about Dieck and their whole relationship). You can 100% interpret it as Klein trying to reach out so the two can be equals and he is practically overjoyed when Dieck finally agrees to go home with him after the war.Ā
Now in Fire Emblem Heroes is when it gets really interesting in my opinion. And itās all through Kleinās 5* level 40 convo with the summoner.Ā
āThanks to my noble birth, I've had the fortune to meet many different people during my life. I feel it's made me a good judge of character. For example, those who talk the talk rarely walk the walk. And they often run away. Then there are those who hardly say a word and never boast, yet are quick to help others. Such a person saved me when I was a child. That's how I know that I can trust you fully. And I devote my skills to your cause and will continue to do so. It's an honor to serve you.ā - KleinĀ
The person he is referring to is Dieck, not Elphin whom he grows up with and not Clarine. This is all about how the mercenary is his personal measuring stick in life. Itās hero worship from the looks of it but from what we can learn from it but you could also interpret it w/ what we know from his B support into maybe a crush of sorts. Like he just talks about Dieck in this way when the guy isnāt here. None of his other relationships except his relationship with Clarine is noted in canon so far, Dieck is literally in his top 5 relationships which is funny cuz hisĀ ācanonicalā ship is with Thea whom he doesnāt even mention? I just find it so strange since itās his only romantic pairing in game if you donāt read between the lines (cuz oh boy does Klein say a lot of things which make you go: and you just say that with a straight face? Who says stuff like that?)Ā Ā
Anyways, Dieck/Klein has material in canon and I love them. Also they should get closer with each other again and hold hands.Ā

"incurious" still GOAT insult. You could be better but you're not. You could learn but you won't, and for no good reason, just a base dispositional apathy. Get fucked
āBecause the truth is, tech doesnāt have an image problem. It doesnāt have a message problem. It has an intention problem. Whatās wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasnāt successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. Whatās wrong is that heās trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product thatās designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isnāt that you havenāt told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.ā
would like to thank AKE for being the one gacha that's like 'you know what would be cool for our next limited characters? we get both CN CVs who voice Rover over from wuwa.' I've seen so many pull plans get destroyed since the trailer

My one friend group can't stop saying, "See you in hell!" in a cheerful voice instead of, "Talk to you later!" and my other friend group can't stop calling things "penis" instead of "cool" or "good", so I just unironically uttered the phrase, "Sounds penis, see you in hell," as I got off the phone.
I tried to quote this post to my housemate the other day but botched it so said "nice cock, kill yourself" and now it's turned into a call and response so instead of saying goodbye one of us says nice cock and the other tells you to kill yourself
itās so special to me that so much of fan culture is textual analysis for the love of the game. like thank god there are people in my phone who are also thinking about this thing i love so much that they are writing transformative fiction as character studies and setting clips of the show to music with theme-relevant lyrics and writing long text posts analyzing every line of dialogue like!! yay!!!

Imagine being the gays at a pride event in 2004 living their lives when someone grabs the microphone and announces to the room that Ronald Reagan was pronounced dead. Can you even imagine the hype, the celebration, the pure elation
"trans men have male privilege" is just "bisexuals have straight privilege" all over again. it was a gross oversimplification then and it still is now.
My problem is that I have a deep admiration and respect for ingenuity, dedication, and commitment to the bit.
Which is ultimately benign, until I am placed in the role of a caregiver or general authority over a person or animal
Because I can't just catch someone in the midst of pulling off a ridiculous, clever, determined and absurd little scheme and just act like I'm not impressed
It wouldn't be honest or fair
And so, it appears that if anything with free will is placed in my care long enough, they invariably learn that if they can get me to laugh without hurting anybody or risking their health then they can pretty much get away with almost anything
He tore open a bag of cheetos and hid them somewhere in the apartment so even after I cleaned up the mess and put the bag in the fridge every couple hours I hear a crunching sound and follow it to find him hunched defensively in a corner eating a cheeto

Every day I handle more money than I will ever make. Every day.
At the start of my employment, my boss showed me videos of people stealing, and we both had a chuckle about it. How silly they were! There was a camera overhead, and itās not to watch the shoppers. See, we canāt actually stop shoplifters. They get away with it maybe nine out of ten times. But we, who are watched and tallied and witnessed? We are always caught.
At first it was hard to hold one hundred dollars bills. An amount I had never seen before. An amount that didnāt exist in my household. Itās normal now. Here is something that is not for me.
āWhat the hell, Iāll take another,ā says the man, pondering our 200 dollar watches. What the hell. Total comes to 580 and not even a flinch in his face. I have been working for 11 hours today and made only 110 dollars. It will go to my rent. Today I work for free, it feels. When I get my check, I will have 35 dollars left for food and saving.
The six hundreds he hands me go into the cash register. For a moment, I imagine having money. Then I put it away, counting out his change.
I know for a fact we sell our products for double what they are worth. That I could be making commission. That they could hand me those 580 dollars and change my life and not even mark the difference in their checkbooks. Heās not the only sale they make today, but I am the reason they made it. Heās not the only one spending 600 dollars, but if I hadnāt spent two hours with him telling me about his life, he wouldnāt have spent any. I go home. I donāt own a watch.
I have watched and rewatched a video on how to make salmon four ways. My shopping list is always the same. Pasta. Rice. Tuna. If I can afford butter it was a good week. I dream of the world I will never walk in, where I can throw the best fish fillet in the cart with a shrug. I hold hundreds in my hand and look up at the camera. I put them under the cash drawer.
I go to work. I scrap together my savings. I eat my bowl of rice slowly. My manager takes a paid week off from work just for his birthday. He owns a yacht.Ā
i wrote this while i was working at orlandoās walt disney world parks.
i was part of their college program. i moved to the state for it. they legally owned the building i was living in and still charged me rent. i ostensibly was being charged to work for them. it was a 2 bedroom apartment and they placed 6 adult women in it in forced triples.
as many as one in ten disney employees have experienced homelessness while working for the company. despite huge efforts to unionize, strike, or otherwise demand fair treatment; disney has refused to increase employee quality of life.
disney admits publicly that a good portion of their success is because the employees (ācast membersā) are dedicated, passionate, and selfless. this is never reflected in pay. even āfaceā characters (ie those that are princesses etc) make barely above a minimum wage.
at the time that i worked there, i made $8.50 an hour. at one point i was asked to create a human shield around a bag because a bomb dog had alerted to it. for eight fucking dollars an hour.
i now work a very cushy office job. i have bought the salmon and cooked it all four ways.
i go to the store. i am nice to the person behind the counter. she looks up at the camera while she counts out my change. there is nothing fundamentally different about her and i.
we are both worth more than the watch, anyway.
