i'm also thinking about moments like the cai and leda confrontation where it's framed like a beat in leda's personal arc regardless of which route you're playing, specifically because cai's role in the greater narrative is to be a contrasting opposition to the darkness around him
it's really juicy to me that fortune's weave isn't afraid to make a specific lord the Main Character(tm) for a story beat when it makes narrative sense for it to happen. there are lots of bits in three houses that felt like this
at first i thought it would be theodora due to some pacing issues that I had with her part 1, but her performance in part 2 was so generational that it saved her for me

it is very rare that a fire emblem game gives me multiple lords and i cannot pick a clear favorite or least favorite. but fortune's weave did it for me
was really bummed about not being able to make it to gateway fate for [gestures] reasons. so my sister googled "final fantasy" to draw the first character she saw in a fun little outfit for me
@Shock_and_Roll if i get 2 or 3 more obtuse replies on posts that mention her im gonna become a truther. an edelgard did nothing wrong-er. a free edie-er
notice how i never said bertrand is a colonizer in the original post. notice how i explicitly pointed out that he and edelgard have a clear difference in ideology when it comes to civilians in wartime and ends justifying the means. come on
Okay: Gamer still confused as to whether Fortune’s Weave is a prequel or sequel to Three Houses.
“Ursula? Haha she totally looks like Marianne’s descendant! Or ancestor. I don’t know. Whatever. What buttons do I need to hit to marry Dante?”
i'm used to three houses discourse. but it has genuinely been 7 years and people are still considering character analyses as defenses of colonialism, genocide, Murdering Women(tm), etc. as if the most exciting thing about three houses isn't all the fucked up shit these mcs do
