Truth Be Told, Sonia Was One Of The Units I Was Really Waiting For In My Askr. Mainly Because Her Connections

Truth be told, Sonia was one of the units I was really waiting for in my Askr. Mainly because her connections with many characters are interesting to me, Ursula above all. Want a taste of what I mean?

-------------------

It's been over 4 years, and Ursula was here since the beginning. She has really made a name for herself, helping in all of the wars, partecipating in voting gauntlets and beach trips.

Her aloof personality and perfectionist attitude, along with her peerless skill in magic helped her get a legion of secret admirers among the less experienced spies/assassins/criminals of Askr.

"Ursula is so cool. She is hard to approach but she is so strong and fearless. Whenever I'm on a mission with her, I'm relieved. She is PERFECT. She is so confident and it seems nothing can even hope to bother her."

And then Sonia gets summoned and Ursula's brain turns into mush. Nobody has ever seen her act this way. She constantly comes up with excuses to spend time with Sonia, does everything for her, sometimes managing to bring her what she wants before she even speaks, almost as if she could read her mind, she BEGS the summoner and Commander Anna to get paired with Sonia, with promises of incredible feats of magic that can only be accomplished when two PERFECT mages are completely in sync, something she insists is not possible for anyone except the two of them.

Even worse, when asked about her strange behavior and about her exact relationship with the alluring woman she becomes flustered and angry and nervous, everything she normally isn't.

Nobody can make sense of the situation, until Dorothea connects the dots and compares Ursula with some friends of hers that acted similarly in the past:

"I know what's going on. There is only one explanation for her sudden change. Ursula is... a useless lesbian. Probably the kind that denies the truth even to herself, poor dear. There is one person we can ask to confirm it without a doubt."

And when asked about it, Plumeria confirms: "yeah, she's really got it bad. That ugly woman is the protagonist in all of Ursula's dream. In some dreams they walk together holding hands the entire time. In others Sonia praises her in public, proclaming that Ursula is the only person worthy of her time. They even go on romantic dates. How indecent, to think she would have such lust for a married woman. You humans are disgusting."

This discovery caused a minor scandal. Some of Ursula's admirers were heartbroken by the revelation that the invincible woman they adored like an idol never existed. Others were happy to know that she was just a normal person after all, with emotions and flaws. It humanized her and they found that, if anything, this made her even more amazing.

------------------

So, at this point maybe I should really start making fanfictions, analysys, headcanons and all that good stuff. I can't always count on others to make the content I want to see, I have to contribute. Anyway, just so we are clear Ursula having the big gay is an headcanon. Sure she ADORES Sonia, she lives and dies for her, her summer alt thinks about how Sonia would look in a swimsuit and start giggling (this is true, look it up) but we live in a world that still denies that there's something going on between Raven and Lucius, so nothing short of an actual declaration of love will make it canon, despite all the evidence.

Anyway, despite my deep fascination for their dynamic, I don't really ship Ursula and Sonia. For me (like 99% of villains) they can both be redeemed, but they just aren't... good for each other, you know? Sonia is interesting. All morphs are perfectly aware of what they are and there's no reason for Nergal to lie to her, since she would have been obedient either way. The only explenation is that she knows, but lives in denial which is what makes her interesting. Ursula is interesting too. She seems to need the validation of a person who is her superior, a perfect being, and she is completely fine with being used like a tool by her mistress, knowing full well that if she ever disappointed her it would be all over. YIKES! Honey, you need to stop objectifying yourself and change this toxic way of thinking. You deserve better than this.

They are horrible for each other. Ursula keeps feeding Sonia's massive ego and makes it way easier to live a lie instead of facing the truth. Sonia needs a partner who is capable and charismatic (she only interacts with PERFECT humans, remember?), but also not a simp. Someone who won't fall for her tricks and will actually confront her. And Ursula simply needs someone who would love her as an equal.

Clarisse would be a good girlfriend for Ursula, they are similar in many ways, and could bond over their traumatic past (ok, we know nothing about Ursula's past, but come on. You don't end up being an assassin without some trauma). Another option would be someone who appears inherently superior, like a queen, which would make Ursula want to serve them, and then be surprised when she gets treated well. Elincia? Eirika would be an option too. But definitely not Edelgard. Edelgard x Ursula would be cursed for many reasons.

Sonia is a bit trickier. The best candidate would be someone with a lot of life experience and a sharp tongue. She doesn't need kindness, she needs a big, fat "reason you suck speech" to destroy her before she can build herself back as an healthier person and only after she is at peace with herself the relationship could start. Maybe Michalis? As someone who also had both his pride and body destroyed and managed to come back as a better person he could do the trick. I'm sure there are many other options I'm not thinking of.

So in conclusion, Sonia is cool. If people won't start making more content for her now (other than the horny content which is 100% coming. Plumeria is disappointed but not surprised) I might have to take things into my hands.

Mood. I love Saul but man it doesn't feel right to separate the dynamic duo. This is like a Shinon without his Gatrie, a Mae without her Boey. It's wack. I really hope Dorothy comes in the next Binding Banner.

Aww man, I thought since Saul was in the banner that they'd include Dorothy 😢

Reblog to have something lgbt happen to you this summer

Day 2

I voted for Elena, Ike and Mist's mom because she is exactly the kind of character I want to see expanded on in FEH.

If they can create a personality for the likes of Altina, Ullr and Duma, they can do the same for Elena!

Anyway keep voting for your faves and don't let the day 1 results tempt you.

Wow, the new banner sure was surprising and unexpected.

To begin with I would have never have guessed they would choose Awakening when three other games were ahead of it in the rotation (Radiant Dawn, Fates and Mystery) AND they had the option to choose TMS since they just reminded everyone of its existence. Still, I love Awakening so it's not like I can complain.

I also can't complain that they chose to focus on Gen 1 since I always prefer when they introduce new characters rather than "rescue" characters from "alt hell".

Ricken, Gregor and Phila (!!!!) are good picks and I personally love it when they give us minor characters who were never playable before. So much that I actually voted for Phila in CYL.

And Cervantes is also a based pick. I never would have expected a free Armor Knight from IS. Feels bad to be a Validar fan... tho at this point it has to be intentional. I'm starting to think Validar will be the last character from Awakening added.

The Rearmed hero was really disappointing tho, ngl. Not only it's another Ascended!Celica situation since they gave a character that already has a Legendary the shiny new alt. But even if they picked someone else I would have preferred to have no Rearmed rather than another banner with a Rearmed and an Ascended. Because together with the last NH banner it begins to set a precedent, an expectation...

The expectation that every new heroes banner will have both Ascended AND Rearmed is extremely scary to me as someone who mostly cares about getting every character EVER in this game. Because as long as we have OCs like Eir, Lif and probably Thrasir it's tolerable. We still get 4 brand new characters and only one Forging Bond slot is taken by an alt.

But in the future, we could get only 3 new characters per banner with 2 forging bond slots being wasted. THAT I do not want.

The next Awakening banner could very well be: an Ascended alt, a Rearmed alt, Vaike, Kellam and GHB Pheros. The one after could be an Ascended alt, a Rearmed alt, Inigo, Severa and GHB Noire. R.I.P. Laurent...

I sincerely hope that I'm wrong about this and that they will start alternating between Ascended and Rearmed alts like they already do with Duos and Harmonics. For everyone's sake.
