The_antithesis

Pannette + Lyn: Pannette's stupidly high strength turns Astra Storm from a long range poking tool to the "delete that enemy in particular" button. Also, her speed is just high enough to double most things on Normal Mode, so Alarcity can clear out most of the nastier threats. Chloe + Sigurd: Movement buffs and canto on a flier can completely break some maps, as I can attack a far away threat with a javelin then hide in a lake. Also, brave lance is fun!

Granted. You read a fanfiction. I wish TMS#FE would get a sequel.

Res +7 muthafuckers!

The fact they're saying it's going to cost ~$1000 for a test is fucking sickening

Wonder how on Earth someone manged to get a tattoo while dead. WWYDI IntSys announced an FE4 remake?

I'm just going to point out that the colours of the houses represent their positions on the political compass: Black Eagles = Red = AuthLeft. Wants to change the system and is willing to go to unreasonable lengths to do so. Blue Lions = Blue = AuthRight. Wants to keep tradition and give the dead their tribute, and is willing to go to unreasonable lengths to do so. Golden Deer = Yellow = LibRight. Wants to remove all authorities and borders in favour of international trade, even if they have a good reason for being there. Byleth/Church = Silver = Centrist. Can ally with just about anyone. Anyway, back to the image war!

This reminds me of my yearbook quote: "A single seed in the right place can sprout an entire forest."

Only overcooked food. There are quite a few dishes I prefer slightly overdone! WYR have a cat smart enough to get people to queue to pet her, or have a cat dumb enough to be scared of its own tail? (Both my family's cats)

I think that Golden routes should be confined to the realms of fanfictions, but they can make for very good fanfics! That said, if I had to implement a "Golden Route" into Three Houses, I'd put it in Chapter 10. Before chapter 10, you must have completed Byleth and Lysithea's C support. At the end of the conversation, Sothis will suggest pranking her by making a 'ghost' appear. If you choose to egg her on and ask her to try to make herself visible, she'll jumpscare poor Lysithea and, most importantly, find out she can make herself visible to others. To trigger the alternate path, one must use a divine pulse after defeating Kronya, travel back to before Kronya is defeated, then defeat Kronya a second time. Doing so will allow Byleth to dodge the Zaharas spell and save Sothis. Solon will act shocked, until the house leader taunts him by saying his fancy spell missed. Defeat Solon as usual to proceed to Chapter 11. In Chapter 11, Rhea directs Byleth to the Holy Tomb for the goddess revival ceremony after the house leader points out they have an uncanny ability to see things coming. In the tomb, Rhea directs Byleth onto the throne and, because Sothis is still around, she takes over Byleth's body. However, she is NOT happy about it and, after panicking a lot and shouting "Where is the child?!" several times, she uses a divine pulse to go back to before Byleth sat on the throne, and warns them about the danger. In respone, Byleth hesitates but Rhea pushes Byleth forwards... If Sothis didn't find out she could make herself visible, Rhea will push Byleth onto the throne once more (to Sothis's horror) and you get a bad ending. Sothis is very bitter towards Rhea over Byleth's death, and causes infighting in the Church as Edelgard swoops in and easily wins the war. However, with Sothis!Byleth not in Edelgard's court, she fails to get enough political capital to shut down TWSITD, and they win. If Sothis did find out she could make herself visible (by spooking Lysithea), a mature version of her will appear and stop proceedings. With both Rhea and Edelgard in shock at the goddess herself appearing before them, they listen when Sothis gives both of them a verbal beatdown. Edelgard surrenders before the war even begins and Rhea abandons her post as the head of the Church, with the pair of them accepting roles as advisers to Sothis. Claude accepts his role as Crown Prince of Almyra as Byleth opens the gates of Fodlan's locket and, with Sothis's blessing, Almyra and the Leicester Alliance unite.

Defeat Embla. I have a job to do, may as well do it. WWYDI you found a functioning Elwind tome?
