I have a question about Euphemia if i may! Who would her out of house supports be with?
@recurringwriter Hello! Wow, I've been thinking about this on and off and tend to keep going back and forth. While some I'm certain she'd have supports with, others I'm not so sure about.
Part of the problem is I keep flipping back and forth in my brain because I've had the idea of her being recruitable on a Blue Lions playthrough (but not Crimson Flower or Silver Snow), but I've been toying with the idea recently of her being locked to Golden Deer in the same Manner as Dedue and Hubert are to Blue Lions and Black Eagles (with the exception that unlike those two, she does have supports aside from her own house + some Church of Seiros affiliates).
Longish Post Below the cut
From Black Eagles:
Bernadetta - Basically their supports would be about Euphemia discovering her momfriend override and the two of them working together to look out for each other so they'll be less nervous around other people.
Linhardt - Euphemia would find Linhardt completely baffling and maybe uncomfortable to be around at times. But I can easily see them having a support chain about whether one has to follow the societal obligations one expects them to follow. Or possibly Linhardt taking an interest in Euphemia's crest.
Ferdinand* - Ferdinand is someone I keep flipping back and forth on. I could see her having a support chain with that really illustrates her problems with talking to other nobles, and I can possibly see Ferdie trying to show her that there are others willing to listen, but at the same time I think he'd have a real uphill battle trying to get her to talk to him in the first place.
-> While she wouldn't be recruitable to Black Eagles, I think it would be interesting if Euphemia and Edelgard had some special dialogue/interactions, especially since they're both victims of TWSITD and had artificial crests implanted in them/list their siblings under similar circumstances.
From Blue Lions:
Mercedes - Both of them come from Family lines that inherited the Crest of Lamine at one point or another. But, I don't think they would bond over that, so much as the ordeals they've had to go through under the crest system. I think they could also possibly bond over magic in some way.
Sylvain - I feel like Euphemia and Sylvain's supports would be very emotionally heavy/fraught, and would really center around how both of them feel about the crest system. I think she would probably be scared of Sylvain at first because in her mind, he seems like the kind of noble who uses his crest to to get what he wants. When she learns the reason for his behavior, I think she would still be upset, but she would be more willing to talk to him and they would eventually be friends. I think this might be another support chain of Euphemia's that addresses whether one truly has to follow the expectations/obligations of others, but I think it would also be about allowing oneself to be vulnerable to hurt in order to not only bond with others, but be a more authentic version of themselves.
Dimitri* - I really think Dimitri and Euphemia would have a lot to talk about, from having lost the people you care about mist, to survivor's guilt, to being haunted by the past. Part of me would want it to be they can support even on the Golden Deer route, Dimitri just wouldn't be recruitable for obvious reasons, but I know that's not how the game works. I also like the dynamic of the sickly one and the one whose strong af being friends and helping each other out.
From Church of Seiros:
Manuela - I feel like their supports would really hit on Euphemia's fear of infirmaries/being alone with medical personnel. I think Manuela would find Euphemia frustrating at first, but I think she'd be very compassionate once she knew that someone in a medical role had mistreated her, and would try to get Euphemia to trust her/try to accommodate Euphemia maybe.
Hanneman - As the Crest Scholar who identified Euphemia's crest of Riegan, I think Hanneman would have an interest in keeping an eye on her while she's at Garreg Mach. I think their personal histories could give them potentially something to bond over (losing siblings due to negligence/cruelty connected to crests in particular). While Euphemia's heath problems are different than those of Hanneman's late sister, I can see them having a support chain where maybe he's a bit fussy over her because she reminds him of his sister.
Flayn - I think it could be interesting to address Church censorship, and/or possibly have Flayn and Euphemia bonding over having parents with overbearing tendencies (Seteth in Flayn's case and Baroness Lehr in Euphemia's case). They could also bond on their desire to see more of the world.
From The Ashen Wolves:
Balthus - He has a minor role in Euphemia's backstory as someone who was nice to her/spent time with her at noble gatherings when she was a kid. I can see their supports being a lot about reminiscing about the past/remembering the past and looking at the present and being like 'well shit. not where we want to be huh?'
Yuri - Euphemia would probably have an easier time talking to Yuri than to some others, and I think she'd talk about how she has an easier time with commoners than nobles. I think these supports could also touch on Euphemia's reluctance to sleep, and Yuri coaxing her to finally rest.
Hapi - Both were experimented on by a member of TWSITD and have issues with trusting certain groups as a result (nobles and the Knights of Seiros, respectively). I think the two of them would have an understanding.
Honorable Mentions-
I think it would be neat for Dorothea, Petra, Ashe, and Annette to have supports with Euphemia, but I'm struggling a bit as to how their supports would go. And the ones I have listed are already a lot. But I think it would be cool if they interacted.

@recurringwriter I'M SORRY I tried to add him but I could only put ten options on the poll so I wanted to have the most story relevant dads! he was a little bit of a stretch since we never see him interact with his family, but I wanted to include all the dads and Tumblr wouldn't let me. </3
@sevarix-blogs fr tho lol, Rodrigue has the most votes rn by a landslide. that makes me happy tho bc I know a lot of ppl think he's a terrible father but hopefully me and the other Roddad posters have convinced ppl that he's trying his best!!! and also, I think he's a perfect mix of gentle, good, doing his best, and scolding when necessary (to both Felix and Dimitri)! he's not just all good things, and I voted for him too bc I appreciate the mix of genuine parenting that we see from him on top of all the good things. 🥺
@recurringwriter tagged:Â #wait so it's canon that it literally physically silences people? fascinating and good news cheers
It is in the Tellius games, at least! I’d like to say that would imply it’s true across all games, but I’ve never known of an instance where say, a unit could talk to another unit (like recruitment) while also on a map where an enemy could silence them (in the other games).
RD doesn’t have that problem as strongly, because as long as you’re on a map with an enemy that can use Silence, you just need to have a unit fielded who has a support that they haven’t used their converse feature for yet. If they get in range of a Silence user and it works, there’s that way, or in the case of Endgame 1, the good majority of your units will all get silenced at the same time.
Ironically though it’s a good piece of lore drop for Tellius lol. They can’t just stop magic itself so they have to silence the users from being able to speak the spells themselves (which Soren actually says/implies in PoR that spells are spoken iirc? Basically magic isn’t something they can just throw around without speaking). That would mean they can’t speak at all, so they can’t talk to allies either.
I don’t know that it’s the case in all the FE games, but it sure is for Tellius!
