#i've given it much thought anon... much...

MDNI for real and scroll now lest the mommy kink come for you too

LOVE having him back !!!

Every second of him on screen is precious to me, even the moments where he's just standing there doing nothing 😂 Seeing him at the firehouse was so surreal (i've been daydreaming fics of that scenario for nearly a year now!!), and seeing him & Bobby back together again as adults was so :((((

I received so many Mercedes asks in the span of a few days lol

No one said she wasn't

It's another half of the problem, for sure in various FE verses the Ladies (wife of Lord X or Lord X's mom) doesn't exist, but it's still superweird that 1/ Mercedes's mom being pregnant, thus having a Martritz heir on the way, wasn't enough to save the House from being dissolved 2/Lady Martritz (Mercie's mom) who has a crest is as relevant as airpods when we're talking about whether a house should be dissolved or not.

The main issue regarding House Martritz is how it was dissolved when the head of the House died - even if his wife and heir were still around.

I'm pretty sure it's not the same anon lol

But Mercedes's mom, unless Fodlan is a Mpreg universe, was a woman.

So maybe you're right, they weren't sexist against an unborn child because gender reveal parties aren't a thing in Fodlan, but the House dying when the Lady - with the Crest !! - wife of the Lord was still around (with their heir!) means there's at least some sexism regarding... Mercedes's mom.

But she's most likely not a young maiden anymore, so we shouldn't care?

Is she singing jpop songs

To make a parallel, I don't think House Reglay would disappear if Pent happened to die in FE7, both because Louise is still around and Klein was already conceived (even if, by virtue of no gender reveal party no one would have known as of yet if Klein had a peepee or not).

Maybe because Etruria - in the Elibe verse - as a woman general, and not only as a "general who", but Cecilia is part of the quatuor of awesome people most ranked bar the royal fam itself (iirc? it has been a long time since I visited Elibe) in the country?

In Adrestia though... Well.

But yeah, now that you say it, that does make total sense, doesn't it? I mean, who doesn't want to fiddle with something in their hands when they're anxious? xD and given that "anxious mess" seems to be Klink's ground state of being.... well

I have always thought it was kind of amusing that Klink struts around with a crop given that I can't imagine he'd ever have the nerve to actually hit someone with it. It really does just seem like a way to keep his hands busy

Haha, I don’t really have other theories to be quite honest. I think you said it all right there.

Like we see when he first harasses Jeanne about how caring for Luca makes her weak (and again when he starts threatening Domi and Noé at the beginning of the VaNoé fight), Vanitas has a whole complex about not getting too attached to people. He claims it’s a source of weakness, but considering he must be quite traumatized by whatever happened with Luna and Misha, I’m guessing his aversion is actually coming more from a place of fear. Keeping himself lonely is a defense mechanism, because if he never gets attached to anyone, he’ll never have to worry about hurting them again. It also protects him from having to open up about himself emotionally, something that he obviously hates.

So because of all that, the guy really doesn’t have any friends at the start of the series. He’s got Dante, but I don’t think Dante fully realized how much he valued Vani’s presence before Gévaudan, and more importantly, there’s no way in hell that a pre-series Vanitas (and probably current Vani as well) would ever open up emotionally to him. It’s “business partners” all the way with these assholes. Then Noé showed up, and everything changed.
