the feels. ;-;

I wanted to draw like cliche bittersweet shit of them looking at their keepsakes of each other or whatever but then I remembered they are competent spies which means probably they don’t have ANYTHING of their old lives on them sO LIKE ALL THEY HAD WERE THEIR MEMORIES OF EACH OTHER IM DYING HELP ME

OKAY this is a big one because it’s two chapters, and includes the Lucius/Raven C-Support AND the saddest scene in the whole game (to me)

Gotta check up on the husband


Lucius NO!

Not the best way to respond to the previous statement, Raven

You notice things?


How many times do I need to tell you to leave Hector alone


Lucius hasn’t given up on you yet, Raven


[talking about Raven’s parents]



RAVEN


Lucius is so sweet like this boy has been through some shit in his life and he just…he doesn’t understand hatred


Not to forget, just to move on with your life dude. You and your sister are still alive. The house still stands

Lucius doesn’t even have enemies


Raven you idiot that’s not what he’s talking about (but I’m a sucker for physically strong characters acknowledging that there are other types of strengths they may lack)

LOOK AT HIS FACE. LOOK AT HIS FACE AND SAY HE DIDN’T CARE ABOUT YOUR FAMILY. RAVEN

(I don’t want to lose you too, idiot)

I feel like Raven suffers from some sort of inferiority complex b/c he’s always low-key trying to get Lucius to leave

Could you listen for two seconds?

The face of someone not giving up yet

Lyn’s not having any of that shit


Hector please


The two men are so confused about this




Also man, no one has asked about Nils in a while


We can’t leave her with just pirates for protection get with the program

She’s so sad that they’re just not understanding why Ninian has to come

Lyn…

I like Hector acknowledging how much that cost her to say

LEILA


Noooooooo

Spies should be better at lying


…*getting the tissues ready*

This is what I’m going to say when I die

😥

There’s being a bad guy and then there’s being an asshole and this is just excessive. Look at your life. Look at your choices.


I like how often these two just have their own private conversations. I think more than either one of them has with Eliwood

You tell him girl

noooooo



Poor Leila

😥

Seriously everyone talks about what an asshole Hector is but how many lords would be on a first name basis with their spies and actually know all of the stuff going on in their lives?

Look at that stupid smile, look at him trying to fool them…Matthew my poor child…

😥

A BIT LATE TO THIS PARTY, ELIWOOD


God this shit destroyed me as a young child and I still…MATTHEW



The smile finally goes away…he can’t keep trying to hide. And Hector doesn’t even hesitate.

Lyn just wants to help


And Hector goes to stand with her (and also say his favorite swearword)

Hector feels this pain so much like most lords wouldn’t really associate with people like Matthew and Leila – they have a spymaster for this but he knew them and worked with them and cared about them so much (I know he’s rude and brash but I think this is why other lords insult Hector so much. He’s not like them, he doesn’t put on airs or keep himself apart from his employees and his people)

Lyn feels upset too because she comes from a culture where honor is very important. She may have only known Leila for a few minutes but she still feels her death, and Matthew’s pain as someone who has suffered losing people they care about in a very dishonorable way
I feel like Eliwood doesn’t really understand the way they feel both because he’s never really lost anyone, and also because he is a very proper noble. He’s not as friendly and common as Hector, and he wasn’t raised as a commoner like Lyndis so I don’t think he understands why they’re upset other than just at the concept of what happened.

And then this asshole shows up

Just pointing back to where Lyn grew up like…this guy is an assassin, he’s one of the bad guys, and he still has as strict sense of honor. I don’t think he would have agreed to display Leila’s body like they did


And again another moment that could have been sexist, and wasn’t. This isn’t about her being a woman and he’s not going to let her leave. This is about a shared culture, and he’s going to let her die fighting

Again with that fake smile, Matthew. You aren’t fooling anyone

See again: Hector is a big softie. Also clearly Matthew doesn’t want to be treated like he’s suffering – he can’t smile and pretend he’s fine with they’re drawing attention to his loss



Hector tries so hard!!!


😥


And he does! Just like with Lyn, Hector is pretty quick to pick up on how people need to handle emotional things.

Matthew……. 😥



Matthew loved her, but there are wars to win and jobs to do and he just can’t stop yet

If you don’t have Lyn finish off this boss….why?




I love this! He respects her so much, as a Sacaen, as a strong opponent…I know he says this to everyone but I like it better coming to Lyn (especially since I fought him using the Mani Katti)

Hector asking the real questions

She has faith in his honor still, based on how they interacted and Lyn is such a sweetheart, again


And again, Hector stepping up. Arguments aside, I think he does respect Lyn a lot and so, if it’s good enough for her it’s good enough for him and omg these two
