Reposted by 9thwither Estela 🩷 @crashkeys.dev · 15/09/2026i've just seen this specific comparison so many times by now but like whuh? huh? theodora feels closer to rhea than to edelgard in my eyes, if you really want to compare her to anyone. and even that's barely anything. again, completely different goals 031

Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 27/09/2026from observation dimitri stans tend to be the lord stans who are the most normal about rhea. It goes something like this: edelgard stans: claude stans: coin toss dimitri stans: either indifferent to her or sympathetic towards her 291

Reposted by 9thwither starless 🌌🦊 drowning in FEFW @irlhange.bsky.social · 12/09/2026tbh in my experience, Rhea haters are Nabatean Haters in general (as in "those are the bad guys and the Agarthans were excused in genociding them, the Nabateans are the true villainsTM and the Agarthans are the misunderstood heroes yall # trust") so I expected them to hate him too? 💀 what's going on 121
Reposted by 9thwither scruffy oyaji disaster love zone @fiio.bsky.social · 12/09/2026he's a dude so he gets less vitriol by default and he is less involved with rhea's projects so even though he literally Also fought and opposes nemesis/agarthans, ppl just treat him like a worrywart dad. idk if i've ever seen all-nabateans haters, maybe bc it is usually directed at rhea anyway lol 121

Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Eg: the FE wiki using the term, “crest system,” THAT TERM IS NOT CANON it’s not used at any point in canon, it’s a fanon term made up and popularised by noble stans. but noble stans are so influential in fanon it gets treated as a canon term 081

Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 13/08/2026this is why i think rhea is the true all time winner of, “disproportionately hated character™️,” because i’ve never in my life seen before people defending an in universe massacre because they personally hate one of the survivors😭😭😭😭 2288
Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 13/08/2026sometimes rhea haters will list something she hasn’t actually done as proof of her evulness and i‘ll just go, “ i wish she did that tbh,” or, “wow that would have been a good idea. why didn’t she do that?” 2141
Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 19/08/2026eg:, “byleth and sitri are nabateans,” is generally treated as a controversial statement. it is a fact. human-humans turn into monsters when crest stones are placed inside their bodies or when they interact with them for too long. whereas the crest stone of flames brought sitri and byleth to life- 1101
Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 19/08/2026considering how much 3h fans talk about The Crest System™️ i find it surprising how many people don’t have any idea of how crests and relics and generally anything related to that topic works 1111

Reposted by 9thwither 💎 @afuneralofflowers.bsky.social · 31/08/2026GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS is the amount of people who are convinced the CoS is a stand in for the actual irl cath0lic church or whatever but in reality JRPGs just use vaguely similar aesthetics because they think it’s cool looking, see drag0nquest as another example dragonquest.fandom.com/wiki/Churchdragonquest.fandom.comChurchThe church or chapel is a recurring element in the Dragon Quest series. Every main-series game since Dragon Quest II has had churches, and many spinoff games feature them as well. Churches are devoted... 071
