top ten fe supports i would have liked to see
1.) Felix and Edelgard
she would act like he came here to her side because he has well thought out political views when he just came here to spite dimitri and his dad but now he wants to throw up bc he's realized the gravity of the situation. (sloane's idea) I also think edelgard would think Felix would personally want to take out his dad or dimitri and he would just be standing there with static noise in his head mentally breaking down. She's not reading the room on this one.
2.) Ferdinand and Dimitri
I think Dimitri is uncomfortable with people seeing him first and foremost as the prince and the way Ferdinand talks would make him uncomfortable but he also wouldn't really want to challenge it too much. If Fe was cooking they would have let fucked up time skip dimitri have supports and in this timeline Ferdinand would be having a crisis of beliefs. Everyone around him except Felix would just be taking orders from this mad man and he would realize that other people around him actually trust people based on their bloodline. Nobility to everyone aside from him isnt just an abstract measurement of a person's morals. And i think that would break him.
3.) Felix and Annette (REDO)
for the love of god can they talk about Duscur. the way annett's father feels like it was traitorous of him to survive duscur while she knows that's complete bullshit. and the way Felix's brother died in the duscur and everyone upholds that as being really touching and brave. She should talk to him about her dad's viewpoint and he should be able to connect it back to his own family.
3.) Ferdinand and Sylvain
I just think Ferdinand would be the type of person to think sex before marriage was scandalous and their C support would just be Ferdinand seeking him out to tell him to stop having sex with women. Sylvain would just like. accuse him of being gay for that one. (which would be true) Their B support would be Ferdinand finding out that not only does Sylvain sleep around but he's got a reputation for being a cheater and liar. Ferdiand would accuse him of being 'not a true noble' which Sylvian would take and run with bc, in his head, the whole reason he's unfaithful is because women are incapable of truly loving a noble. Then he'd have the misogynistic rant that he does in so many of his supports but he’d add on something about how he doesnt expect Ferdinand to understand. Ferdinand would say something like ‘it is true that nobles possess more then the common folk but our sworn duty is to serve those that have less, not to assume the worst of them and use them for our own gain.’ And Sylvain would think this was very funny and entertaining. Or he would get absolutely pissed. Not sure which one.
4.) Dedue and Claude
Dedue should have just been recruitable in Claude’s route, at least after Dimitri is dead.
I think Claude would try and prod him a little more than other character’s about his real motivations and it could be fun to see Dedue do more than imply he didn’t really trust or feel cared for by other people in the Blue Lions with ashe being the closest thing to a balanced and caring friendship.
5.) Edelgard and Mercedes
C support: Reddit atheist debate me kid vs Christian woman who just desperately needs to feel safe. She’s going to make Mercedes cry and just go ‘Why is she so sensitive? Anyone who holds strong beliefs should be able to argue against a dissenting opinion.
I think their B support would be edelgard apologizing for the harshness but still trying to unpack Mercedes's belief system in a more open way. I think she would try and make the case that Mercedes isnt credting the people in or life or herself for their work and instead just acting like she owes the goddess some huge debt when she really shouldn’t. And then Edelgard would relate it back to her own life which kinda dominates the conversation. Mercedes doesnt want to be here.
6.) Bernie and Monica
I think they are both weird socially awkward gay/bi women but in opposite directions. Monica would seek her out to tell her to be more helpful to the cause which torments Bernie but she might eventually realize Monica is doing this because shes hopelessly in love with edelgard and just wants to be viewed as an asset to her. I feel like Edelgard and Hubert both don’t take monica that seriously and if Bernie was able to overhear gossip about it she might feel bad for her. And their supports end with Monica taking a break from her work to do something fun with Bernie instead of the other way around. Their one paralogue they have together just made me ship them i dont know what to tell you.
7.) Claude and Linhardt
I just. Think it would be silly.
8.) Balthus and Felix
I think Felix really needs to just leave the nobility but I think meeting balthus would make him second guess his ability to do so. This man is in debt, not worried about shit, basically in prison for years, ect ect. I think Felix would want to ask him about his life or if he had any regrets and Balthus would just be like dude I just don’t even think abt it lol
9.) Ingrid and Hilda
I think Hilda would be doing her bit about not being able to pull her own wait bc shes just a delicate maiden and Ingrid would take offense to it as a person trying to overcome people’s perception of her as not being suited for knighthood. Hilda would be like mannnn what is uppp with that chick. Maybe I should try and mak her see my way of things.
10.) Seteth and Dimitri
He can't church guidance counselor his way outta this one
I would have put Felix and Ferdinand first except it would be too dependent on the route their in
