Lover of many things, consistently bad at tagging posts. Same handle on AO3, mostly writing Fire Emblem Awakening fics. S | '94 | she/they

Just posted Chapter 16 of The Blank Man

Summary: It's the same story you've come to know. But there's always been some missing parts, hasn’t there?

Why do we know so little about the war waged by Chrom's father? What does it mean to be a Ylissean tactician from Plegia? When…where are the children from? And, perhaps most importantly – who was Robin before waking up in the field?

Or: How Robin fills the pages of a life all his own.

Chapters: 16/55

Snippet:

So much has happened in such a short amount of time, the world blurs as Robin’s mind flips from one thing to the next. His lack of sleep, the assassination attempt on Emmeryn, Plegian forces already in the country, secret castle blueprints in their foes’ possession, the assassins' leader who apparently knew Robin, and Robin’s complete bodily shut down at hearing the man’s voice.

And, now, this — that Marth’s future-sight is due to him being (assumedly) from the future. That Marth isn’t even a him to begin with. And, most importantly, that she's Chrom’s daughter.

we as a society got over Pacific Rim too fast.

- banging soundtrack just awesome

- lead female character with her own fully realized arc that had nothing to do with a love interest

- the concept of drifting is so fucking cool and prime fanfic material

- those two gay fucking weirdo scientists who drifted together inside a fucking alien brain like hello

- IT PULLS OUT A SWORD IN OUTER FUCKING SPACE

- kaijus are cool. that's all.

pacific rim fucks severely for a lot of reasons but my favorite is that it opens with "the lizard aliens are unionizing so we built robots running on the power of love to fight them you got all that right" and before you have time to really process that concept bam gunshot body on the floor and the movie goes "now consider the vast power of grief in this setup" it never really stops considering

I'm actually a huge fan of enemies to lovers because I do think it's hot but to be clear "enemies to I think you're attractive and that's overcoming my hatred of you" sucks ASS the trope is about growing RESPECT and GENUINE AFFECTION the POINT is that they always found each other attractive but it doesn't MATTER until they also have a solid relationship built on trust respect and friendship!!!!! Do you understand my vision!!!!
