Queen Nerr of Nohr, The Conquering Monarch and her late husband, Prince-Consort Gunther, The Shadow of Death A head canon where events play out as they do in Conquest, but Xander (and possibly Elise) die as they do in Birthright. Camilla still abdicates the throne, having never had much of a head for politics, but as Nerr is the third in the line of succession (Garon both formally legitimized her), she becomes the new ruler, rather than Leo, who instead becomes one of her advisors, taking over as her chief advisor when her husband died. Nerr is incredibly adept at political affairs, having both a shrewd intellect and a natural charisma. She has many allies, not just throughout the many duchies of Nohr, but also throughout Hoshido, namely Moukushuu, Kouga, Izumo and Kazeho. Having personal ties to so many political leaders, as well as having been well versed in negotiation since she was very young (her natural aptitude for manipulating people into giving her what she wants was one of the few things Garon nurtured in her) results in her quite easily brokering deals to the benefit of her queendom. Even Leo admits that she’s much better suited to be in a position of power than him. She’s well loved by the common folk because she overtly places a precedence on their well being above the wealthier castes. Feelings are mixed amongst the nobility. A few nobles recognize that she’s a young girl trying to fix a kingdom that’s been on the brink of collapse for almost a century, but most aristocrats simply disdain this Hoshidan whore and her peasant husband for daring to try and uproot their way of life. There have been several assassination attempts on her life, but alas, assassins creeping on her are old hat for the Dark Blood Princess. Despite the love she holds for her subjects, she is a cold woman, unnerving people with her often vacant stare and flat affect. She’s well known for publicly, and personally, executing those involved in attempted coups. She has become much crueler since the passing of her husband, formerly Sir Gunther, five years after she ascended the throne. A rumor has passed through the staff of Castle Krakenburg that she was involved in murdering him directly, several sources stating that she could be heard speaking to a third person in their quarters the day he passed, though the identity of this third party remains a mystery. Those close to her know this is nonsense as she put the wellbeing of her former retainer above all else, including her queendom and family. Her mental state seems to have severely degraded since his death. They express concern for her as she is often found staring at fountains and ponds, stating he speaks to her through the water, and “he’ll return alive” when she finds “Aum”.

We Both Start Over (Gunther/Nerr drabbles)

“A Chance Meeting” Though Castle Krakenburg was now her home, Nerr often found herself longing for the Northern Citadel. It was a delapidated prison in a barren wasteland, as she was often reminded, but it always would always be her real home in her heart. Often times, when there was no work to do, no levee to attend or meeting to schedule, she would simply walk the desolate path leading away from the capital and into the mountains. Telling anyone where she was going would only cause them to try and talk her out if it, for it seemed her entire family was hellbent on ensuring she forgot that part of her life. But it was a part she clung to, even knowing what a sorry lie it had been. When Gunther found out where she was going those long hours she could not be found, he surprised her by not admonishing her as she had assumed he might, but rather, inisting he accompany her. She had no complaints, and in fact welcomed his presence, but he had made it known in the past that he had no love for the drafty fortress. It always was, and always would be, in his mind, a prison. Some days, they simply walked the sprawling corridors, pointing out little nooks and crannies where memories had been made over the years. One day, however, their impromptu tour headed lower, into the ancient cellars. Nerr shuddered as she stepped into the deep caverns, the air stagnant and heavy with mildew and decay. She had not been this far down in years, not since she was a small child, a Hoshidan prisoner of war rather than a Nohrian princess. The thought gave her pause. Though the winding tunnels had been abandoned for so long, the enchanted torches that lined the walls still burned strongly, casting a violet hue over the walls. Gunther was still walking, heading deeper into the catacombs, and Nerr quickly ran to join him, her skin crawling at the thought of being left alone there even for a moment. For a time, they walked in silence, the only sound that of their steps on the mildew slicked stone. “...where are we going, Gunther?” She asked quietly after a while. Her husband did not respond, the heavy shadows making his face appear harsher than it normally did. His gait was purposeful, almost angry, hers a meek tip toe in comparison. Suddenly, he stopped in front of a heavy iron door, it's massive hinges caked in rust. “...Gunther...?” “This was your cell.” He said, his voice cold, monotonous. As Nerr glanced back at the door, her stomach seemed to twist and turn under her ribs. The old knight either did not notice her discomfort, or else, did not care as he continued speaking, each word harsher than the last. “The only reason King Garon sent me here was because he knew I followed orders, no matter how cruel. I'd kill anyone, anywhere. Children, animals, old people; it didn't matter.” He turned to face her, the flickering light of the violet flames dancing across his face reminding her suddenly of the demon that murdered her mother. “I'd have killed you without a second thought.” The princess swallowed hard, trying to wet her parched mouth. “...then why didn't you?” Something seemed to crack in Gunther's expression, that hard mask quickly devolving into abject misery. “... ...I don't know. I've asked myself that so many times, and the truth is that I simply do not know. I'd never disobeyed an order before I met you.” Nerr closed her eyes, inhaling deeply, the stench of the catacombs bringing unwanted memories to the surface of her mind. “...well, I'm grateful you met me when you did, my love.” “Why is that?” “Because if we had met now rather than then, I would probably have killed you first.” The silence between them grew heavier, broken only by the dripping of water and the occasional crackle of the torches. How much had changed since that first encounter... 000000000000 A/N- So, if you haven't read, “The Rising Dark”, Nerr kind of has a strict, “Kill them before they kill me” policy in place after the first attempt on her life. There's no doubt in my mind that if Gunther approached her with a whip these days (and not for kinky purposes), she'd dismember him and have him buried in a shallow grave before she even realized what she was doing.

"Oh. Oh, damn, I think he's mauling you, Nerr..." "I KNOW! ISN'T IT THE CUTEST THING EVER?!" "Uh, I see blood-- Daaaaaw!!! He fell over! Somebody's a sleepy baby~♡" So, @news14-arts and I now have a head canon that baby Kanna sporadically turns into a dragon but doesn't realize it. And that would be worrisome, especially to Nerr, but who can think about their child turning feral when he bloomps over to you and starts chewing on your feet. Of course, his mandible is essentially a bear trap, but Nerr heals fast. Also, the little antenae-dodads the dragons have act like a dog's tail. Kanna is very happy to be the center of his parents' attention.

Nerr looks hella tight. That expression is just... her. 1000%. tfw you're supposed to be amiable to the visiting royal family because you're a princess and an ambassador, but you're getting ulcer trying to restrain yourself from running over and decking them because they're also your family and you hate them.

"Emperor Ryouma. Prince Takumi." 'Fucking Hoshidans...'

So I was curious how my new computer would handle one of my favorite games, Final Fantasy 14. So I downloaded the benchmark for it and lo and behold, the new one has a character creator in it, so I made Vanessa :D  And then I took it a few steps further and made some of her friends, too

Like Rosamund for @news14-arts

Liara for @luminarygarbagequeen

And last but not least, Nerr for @silvershadow1711

Apologies if any details arent quite right, the character creator in FFXIV leaves a little something to be desired, but I got as close as I possibly could :D

Here’s some mildly NSFW-ish Gunnerr doodles. I say mildly because they denote sexual activities, but there’s nothing exactly “sexual” visible, not even boobs.

I did these partially for anatomical/sketching practice, partially because it’s just fun. Cunther takes eating out much more seriously than he does blow jobs.

“Do you HAVE to train while we’re doing this?”

“I think you’ve known me long enough by now to know that the answer to that is obviously YES.”

“Should– should I be training too?”

“No, darling. You just lie back and relax. You deserve a break.”

“But… YOU don’t?”

“It’s called multitasking, Nerr.”

For as serious as he is in the public eye, behind closed doors, Gunther’s just a big, silly dork.

We Both Start Over (Gunther/Nerr drabbles)

“Scream” – The sound woke her up, reverberating inside her skull and confusing her in her semi-conscious state. Struggling to untangle herself from her covers, Nerr didn't even bother pushing the tangled hair from her face as she reached under her pillow, grabbing the handle of the long knife that resided there. Though her Yato remained ever at her side, it was too long and unwieldy for close, sudden combat. Eyes still glued shut with sleep, she whipped her head to and fro, trying to get a sense of where the danger was. She could hear no signs of a struggle, could smell no blood... It took a moment to realize that it had been a hoarse cry that roused her, an even longer moment to realize exactly where it had come from. Lowering her weapon ever so slightly, the princess turned to face the other occupant of her bed. Gunther lay there, stock still, eyes wide, a rictus grimace of fear frozen on his face. He clutched the comforter so tightly she could see his knuckles turning stark white even as his hands shook slightly. With her own pulse no longer thundering in her ears, she could hear his breathing, short, almost pained gasps. Sighing deeply, the princess returned the knife back under her pillow and slowly laid back down, resting her head as slowly and carefully onto her husband's chest as she could. She could feel the thrumming of his pulse against her skin. “What happened, Gunther?” She asked quietly. There was no corporeal danger at the moment, but she knew full well that did not make his fear any less real. It was always a hit or miss whether or not he would confide in her. Sometimes, he began speaking right away, his voice tight with fear, with pain, with tears, as he slowly recounted whatever horrid memory plagued his dreams at the moment. Other times, they simply lapsed into silence and eventually fell asleep once more. She had given him the chance to say what was on his mind; that was all she could do for him now. 000000000000 A/N- Short chapter, but I felt that less was more in this case.

OOOOOH!! Super fun! I gotta make myself do this! 

Nerr is totally Wrath, man. I know Pride seems the more logical choice, but there's a lot of hatred and anger under those pretty clothes.

Fatesona Seven Deadly Sins Project(?)

So not too long ago I had this idea for people who have a fatesona (or exsona too!) to draw/write something that shows which of the Seven Deadly Sins (Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, Greed, Envy, Sloth, and Pride) they associate that sona too! And then at the end we’d see how many wrathful or lustful or greedy fatesonas there are in the community XD. Just a lil idea of mine, spread the word if you’re interested! O<Ob

And also list/reply/tag with the sin your fatesona associates with the most! Only one though, your fatesona can’t be the ultimate sinner x3

Oh. My god. Y'all gotta read this, right stat now, because it is so cute and sweet and fluffy that it's keeping me from english-ing good!!!! My babies are actually HAPPY!!!

Drink it in, folks, cuz you ain't getting this kind of feel-good fluff from me.

I FINALLY got around to finishing the fic that I gave away in the contest. This fic was written for the lovely @silvershadow1711 It features her OC Nerr (who is a bad ass by the way, seriously go check her out on Silver’s blog) and her husband Gunter from Fire Emblem Fates, post conquest. Silver requested that it focus on Nerr making clothing for Gunter and so it features Nerr making a suit for Gunter to help him adjust to his new life as a noble. I am still so very sorry that it took so long but I appreciate your patience and I hope you like it!

Keep reading

An in-progress pic of the cover illustration for "The Falling Light", the Birthright branch of my FE: Fates fic, "The Road Not Trekked". The top picture is for the completed Conquest branch, "The Rising Dark". It started just as sparse as the bottom version, so I look at it to remind myself that it WILL look better if I keep working on it.

Another pen sketch, so I can say I did TWO things for Inktober. Yay me!! I don't really pay attention to anime anymore, but I have completely fallen in love with A Centaur's Life. So of course I started thinking of Fates characters as hexapedal races. My current headcanon is that cavaliers are centaurs, fliers are draconid/angelfolk, depending on where they hail from (Nohrians are imps, Hoshidans are angels), and everyone else is a catperson or faun. Vallites are merfolk (and Nerr is half mer, half Antartican, hence the scales on her face and tail). Nerr totally rides Gunther like a mount, but only when his hands are full because he prefers carrying her.

"I don't want any of you brats thinking this is going to be an everyday occurance. Just because Lady Nerr sits on my shoulders doesn't mean you can."

"Whatever, old man. This is the only thing you're good for."

Still obsessing over my hexapedal Fates AU. I revamped Guntaur a bit because I want him to be more like a clydesdale (totally not because I want him to tower over Xander or anything...). Given his surface area, he's very warm, making for a very comfortable seat, especially in the winter. Nerr has no legs, and has difficulty manuevering in the snow, but the other children have no excuse, especially not Flora and Felicia.

One day I'll care enough about the other characters to draw them too.

A super quick pen sketch. I might do a real version one day if I ever get any inspiration.

I swear to god, I could write a ten-page oneshot just based on this one verse. This is Gunnerr canon, now.

After all, I can’t tell what’s so different between that corpse and me…

a sad day…

HHhhhhhnnnnnggghhhh....!!!!!

I would drop kick the Mona Lisa to make room for this. Behold: a TRUE masterpiece!!!

a something i did for @silvershadow1711 / @conqueringmonarch since i found a lingerie set on the internets that would be perfect for princess nerr. i’m quite pleased with the appliqué effect i was able to do with a gel pen.

A quick doodle of @news14-arts's Rosamund and her man Shura, because Shuramund is the OTP to end all OTPs. I would die for them. Shura loves carrying Rosie around on his back, and enjoys being the little spoon when they cuddle. And honestly, with a backpack that cute, who wouldn't want to wear it all the time?

Some sweet, rose-theme lingerie for MY favorite Rose. @news14-arts's Rosamund makes me gay, I'm not even exaggerating. All soft and gorgeous... Shura has no idea how lucky he us.

Some WIPs I'm working on. I've decided that I want to do a Gunnerr set for every special banner we've had in Heroes thus far. I already did the Summer banner, so now I have to do East-- er, Spring Fesitval, Bridal, Performing Arts, Hallowe-- ehrm, Fall Festival, Ch-- Winter Festival and probably New... Season... Festival?

For over a month, I've been working on my seasonal FEH banner Gunnerr series and have JUST gotten to the coloring stage (it's mostly taken so long because of the damn freezing weather and me being too cold to even hold my pencils). Two more pictures and I'm DONE with them, thank gawd. I have weapons for banner, but I kinda want to actually do the whole Heroes shebang and give them all stats, abilities, and dialogue too... but I'll prolly say "Fuck it" cuz that sounds hard. ((Nerr uses an "Engagement Ring" that functions as a green stone with built in DC and Gunther has "Wedding Bells" which is an axe with BA3))

So. I finally did it. It only took forever, and me being sick as a dog and possibly getting frostbite on my drawing hand (and not even doing everything I had wanted to), but I finally finished all the seasonal banner variants for Gunther and Nerr. It feels like a year in review, even though I’ve only been drawing for two months.

*Spring Festival Banner*

Gunter: Spring Chicken (Bow infantry, Bunny Bow+)

Nerr: Newly Bloomed (Red tome infantry, Egg Basket+)

[I wanted Nerr’s outfit to be way more complicated, but laziness won out in the end. And considering I dislike the male outfits for the spring banner, I went for more of a sweet lolita look for Gunther. It was hard to think of an easter-themed weapon]

*Bridal Festival Banner*

Gunter: Beaming Bridegroom (Axe infantry, Wedding Bells+)

Nerr: Blushing Bride (Green stone infantry, Engagement Ring+)

[I had wanted to paint this in watercolors back when the banner first came out. I even have an inked Nerr, but alas, shit happened. I had planned on actually drawing Nerr in her transformed state to go with it, but I was too sick. Hopefully I can do it later.]

*Nohrian Summer Banner*

Gunter: Reluctant Vacationer (Sword infantry, Sharky+ [uninheritable])

Nerr: Sea Nymph (Green tome infantry, Surfboard+)

[Yeah, I know this is an old drawing, but like I said, I’ve been sick. The shark is a reference to one of my favorite cartoons, and the surfboard is the ocean’s gray waves. Nerr’s title is actually the meaning of her name, “Ner®ida. That worked out nicely.]

*Performing Arts Banner*

Gunter: Smooth Moves (Lance Infantry, Silver Glaive+)

Nerr: Violin Virtuoso (Blue tome infantry, Kleinegeige+ [uninheritable])

[Okay, this is probably my favorite set. I was inspired by watching a guy pole dance to "Human Nature” by Michael Jackson and just thought, “YAAAASSS!!!” In some alternate universe, Gunther and Nerr are performers that work exclusively with MJ songs.]

*Harvest Festival Banner*

Gunter: Storied Spirit (Blue tome flier, Ao Andon+)

Nerr: Kitsune Koibito (Sword Infantry, Wagasashi+)

[This one… might need explaining. Gunther is an Ao Andon (literally Blue Lantern), a ghost that appears when people tell scary stories to either murder them or jumpscare them. Don’t know which is worse. Japanese ghosts are often depicted without feet, hovering over the ground, hence why he’s a flier. Nerr, despite not having the ears/tails associated with a kitsune, is actually inspired by one of my favorite OSTER project songs, “Kitsune no Yomeri”, about a yandere kitsune who takes on the appearance of a normal human to be with her beloved. Her weapon is a mix of a wagasa (oil paper parsol) and a wakizashi (short katana).]

*Winter Festival Banner*

Gunter: Veteran Santa (Dagger Calvary, Gift Geshenk+)

Nerr: Heavenly Herald (Staff flier, Polaris+)

[Gunther’s mount is a reindeer, and I wanted to draw it in the background, but forgot. Originally, they were going to be characters from the Nutcracker ballet, but I figured it would probably be better to stick to something more closely associated with Christmas]

*New Year Festival Banner*

Gunter: Mochi Knight (Axe infantry, Mochi Kine+)

Nerr: Cardshark Princess (Dagger infantry, Karuta+)

[And the last of them, and happily enough, the theme that won in the poll for what to do for this banner! A New Year’s tradition is to make homemade mochi, hence Gunther’s pestel (adorned with moons, cuz rabbits be makin’ mochi on the moon) and a shimenawa (a charm to ensure bounty).Karuta, for those that are interested, is a type of card game played by families on New Year’s in Japan, which involves matching short poems to pictures that depict them. It’s all in good fun, but Nerr is a manipulative ass who can’t stand loosing. She plays for keeps.]

There are a few addendums I wanted to draw, W!Gunther’s mount, B!Nerr’s dragon form.and H!Nerr’s proc art, but they’ll have to wait until I’m feeling better and it warms up (it’s too cold to draw- the ink in my pen is actually frozen). A small part of me wants to actually give them stats, skills, and quotes, but I’m shit at BSTs, so I guess that’ll just be a side project for my personal pleasure one day. Welp, you guys have endured enough of my horrible, horrible ship for one year. I promise not to upload anymore FEH art for Gunther and Nerr.

….it’s gonna be Frey and Kristabel this year~

Geez o'Pete, once I go a few days without drawing, my drawing muscles completely atrophy. Since I was too sick/cold/lazy to draw something for @news14-arts, I did Valentine’s versions of her literal perfection OC Rosamund and her wonderful trash husband, Shura.
