    Or did you think the butler-who-only-loves-you and Conflicted-and-arrogant-but-secretly-emotionally-vulnerable-brother were placed in the game solely for their artistic merit?

    Fire Emblem Awakening drew a massive female audience, and Fates put "Pander to them as hard as you can." on the design board pretty prominently. In fact, that branch was probably more successful than the more obvious "Tits" stuff, considering the all audiences manga was cancelled in favor of a Leo focused Josei manga.

    The thing that really gets to me about the female armor designs in Fates, though, is how... not sexy they are.

    Like, Camilla and Charlotte, at least there I get it. Tubular Boobular Joy and all that, pretty clear what the appeal is supposed to be. But the pantslessness doesn't show anything sexy. It just looks stupid.

    So I pulled a a 4* robin to go with my 5*.

    Is there something I can do with him, or is he just gonna sit there and be sad?

    You can turn him into skill points for 5* Robin

    Check his nature, spend 20k feathers to evolve him to 5* and feed the worse one to the better one? (Do not do this.)

    BFL makes good dinners and is helpful.

    Doesn't hold a candle to my sweet Heroes team though.

    So if your heroes team and BFL were both hanging over vats of acid... which would you save?

    I save BFL and then have my spider friends save the heroes team

    Then you can send him home for feathers to upgrade other units to work with Robin.

    The Fates community having a significant female representation is something I do really appreciate.

    Did you know that in addition to being a buffing and debuffing monster, Sharena has all of the stats?

    I have come to terms with the idea that I will never pull a five star unit. I am reminded why I avoid these sorts of games.

    Got Odin and Niles in one summon, but their boss didn't feel like showing up.

    Instead I got two Lon'qu.

    Go away, dude.

    Alright, got my Lucina maxed out. She's +Atk -Res, which seems pretty good.

    My Takumi is +Atk -Spd which seems...less good.

    I'm replaying Awakening, this time with Lady Robin

    Haven't decided on any pairings yet

    Leaning towards Chrom/Sully

    ...Did Awakening have a L'Arachel?

    I don't think they ever reused that particular archetype

    i think the closest you get is probably somebody like owain, but they're pretty different flavors of enthusiastic nut

    I don't think there's anybody quite so...L'Arachel as L'Arachel is
