OOOOO!!!

THAT LEGENDS SCATTER BIT!!!

WITH JUST THE VOCALS, AND MORE LAYERING OF THEM AT THAT!!! LOVE IT!!

These are really some happy peppy lyrics we’ve got here aren’t they. Legends scatter, hope and peace are lost forever. Happy fun times.

Oh I didn’t mention it in the previous one, but the “even brilliant lights will cease to burn” line? It’s like Narrator Lady’s “but even the most brilliant lights eventually flicker and die”

And with Ozpin’s line being repeated in the lyrics, it makes me think that maybe this song is being sung by the two of them. They seemed to have differing ideologies, although I’m unsure if Narrator Lady is really a character.

Okay so we’ve got our introduced kids, a couple of randos, and then a horde of shadow folk. But where’s Blake? Maybe on Jaune’s other side, out of frame.

For a hot second I thought Yang was missing an arm, and then I realized that it was just her gauntlet punchy thing blending into her hair. I’m a fool.

Dimitri and Dedue discuss ghosts

Comic on thoughts about what dimitri told byleth about being the same during the battle on the bridge and towards the events of the battle of gronder field.

dimidue, dimidue, dimIDUE, DIMIDUE

A dimileth comic about depression and healing.

I see plenty of posts about Blue Lions eagerly waiting for the Dimileth shoe to drop. But I raise you this: Friendly Neighborhood Shipper Gatekeeper.

That’s right, our friend the Friendly Gatekeeper is the ultimate Dimileth shipper.

Gatekeeper learned early on how to read Byleth’s stoic face, and has been able to tell even the tiniest details in their mood, I’m talking “Oh no! Professor’s eyebrows are .02% lower than before! The Professor must be super upset about something!”

Gatekeeper is a Byleth savant! He speaks Byleth and is the a professional Byleth translator. He got his degree in five minutes because that’s all it took after meeting Byleth for him to decide that they’re obviously #BFFs5Ever

So OF COURSE he’s going to notice if the Professor is slowly catching feelings for anyone. He probably realizes even before Byleth and he doesn’t have even half the context. But, *gasp*, it’s forbidden. A teacher and their student? Oh noooooo, it was never meant to BE! 

Note he probably doesn’t even know WHO Byleth has feelings for because he never leaves that dumb gate. He just knows that his bestest friend is going through FORBIDDEN LOVE! (He refuses to believe they’re in love with someone in faculty because he would have heard rumors by now).

This is cause for drastic action!

Gatekeeper takes a day off.

Yes! A day off from guarding the gate!

This is a matter of life and death! His best friend needs him Goddess damn it all! He needs to do reconnaissance! For the professor! He needs to find the fiend that stole their heart and find a flaw in them so Byleth can move on!

Note that Byleth doesn’t even realize they’re catching feelings yet.

So Gatekeeper spends the whole day spying, looking for the despicable scum that wooed their best friend with their willy willy seductive ways. He’s stalking the professor the whole day and being totally obvious about it. Sorry Gatekeeper, everyone knows you’re hiding behind that bush. Byleth is just a good friend and not letting anyone call you out.

The Blue Lions all think the Gatekeeper is stalking Byleth. Felix offers to duel him. Ingrid just advises that Byleth report him to Seteth. Byleth, knowing that’s their bro, just tells the students it’s no concern and goes to see what the heck is going on. To which Gatekeeper, caught, does the only thing a man in his position can do and bursts out the whole truth through his tears. Bawling about how he knows about this seductive seducer that been trying to claim their heart with their fiendish ways, and how he was worried, and he wanted to make sure nothing happened to the professor because it’s his duty as their BFF to make sure that their heart remains unbroken.

The Blue Lions are…flabbergasted to say the least.

Then it’s full on panic mode because WHAT? What seductive seducer? Who is trying to steal Byleth’s heart?

And Gatekeeper is all like, “That’s what I was trying to find out!”

And now Gatekeeper has a class of baby lions basically spun into a panic thinking that there’s another Sylvain going around trying to seduce Byleth, only they’re a fiend out to purposely break their heart or something.

They’re pretty livid about the idea.

Gatekeeper is escorted out of the class by a mildly confused Byleth who promises to spend the day “mending their broken heart” with the Gatekeeper, leaving behind a very confused class, a Sylvain who wants to snoop because “what the fuck”, and a mildly jealous Dimitri. The incident isn’t forgotten, per se, but it’s brushed off.

Cut to five years later.

By now Gatekeeper is much more protective of their friend, what with them having gone missing for five years. But he’s still able to read them like a book, and it’s only gotten easier with time and their growing emotions. 

So it’s pretty easy to tell they’re head over heels.

He just doesn’t know with who.

But his friend is SAD.

SAD!

Who would dare make them SAD!!!!!!?!?!

It’s sin!

Be can’t take a day off to stop guarding like he used to, but he dang well keeps an eye open! He’s got them peeled, he’s watching everyone, he’s going to catch this fiendish fiend!

But whoever it is never shows up at the front gate with the professor. He just can’t seem to find them in the same room with them any other time either. And the professor is getting sadder and sadder, and even everything going well and having nothing to report is making them happy. 

So Gatekeeper does the only thing he can.

He takes it upon himself to find someone else for the professor!

Now, love doesn’t just go away. It’s going to take some time to mend a broken heart, plant some seeds of romance, but he’s going to do it! In the name of friendship!

So he goes to the one person he thinks is as much Byleth’s friend as he is.

The Prince!

The professor spends a lot of time with him! And they’re always talking about them, and…and…

Oh.

Wow.

Gatekeeper is floored. Now it all makes sense! So much sense! The prince had been grumpy for months before that whole thing where he got better! Professor was always mentioning him! And..and..

Interrogation time!

So Gatekeeper, not a strong or powerful man, but filled with enough determination to fuel a Smash Competition, marches up to the Prince of Faerghus and just stares at him.

Poor Dimitri is so confused. He’s wondering what he did to piss off this guy, and if he accidentally killed his brother or something. He’s already moving to apologize, but Gatekeeper is already on him. Demanding to know his favorite foods, and color, and what does he finds romantic, and how he feels about dogs.

Dimitri is so fucking tired.

He’s so confused, but he just rolls with it because he’s newly on the atonement train and doesn’t wanna be an asshole, and figures this is just someone’s weird way of making sure he wasn’t going to kill everyone in the room and then himself.

Wanting to know his ideal date is strange though.

The convo actually takes a surprisingly heartwarming turn soon after though, when both men end up talking about Byleth and how much they mean to the both of them. Gatekeeper goes on about how Byleth is his best friend, and makes days guarding the gate seem like the most important job in the world, and Dimitri goes on about how without Byleth he’d still be lost. And suddenly they’re bonding over small things too, like chamomile tea, and lances, and fond memories they have of Garreg Mach. And, suddenly, Dimitri and Gatekeeper both have a new friend.

And Gatekeeper, after so long of Byleth friendship, has learned to notice when people are #Feeling and not noticing, and it’s pretty easy by the way Dimitri smiles when he says the professor’s name, and how he looks when he talks about them, and that tiny tiny smile that he’s pretty head over heels himself.

Gatekeeper quickly goes from over protective friend to rabid shipping fangirl watching their OTP on the fast track to becoming canon. He might squeal a bit when he gets back to his bunk that night. Every second of his life the next day is consumed by the mighty need to watch these two get married yesterday please.

His poor shipping heart can’t take it.

His eyes are on them whenever they walk by. He has to physically refrain from dying and mentioning how much they should kiss. He’s dying. Someone help this man.

He cries when they announce their engagement. 

He gets to guard the wedding.

Okay, but the real question the Dimileth shippers should be asking is how disastrous is the wedding?

You think Alois and Seteth aren’t going to throw down over who gets to give away Byleth? Alois considers himself Byleth’s older brother and Seteth says he, Flayn, and Byleth are family in their A support. Those two are going to throw down right after the announcement and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Then there’s the Rhea drama to consider. She’s your grandmother-daughter and she’s high key going to have a mini crisis over here. She’s probably expected to oversee the damn wedding and she’s totally not going to be able to do it because as far as she’s concerned her mom is getting married and she’s going to have to start calling Dimitri dad.

If Annette isn’t squealing about trying to manage the whole thing single highhandedly than I’ll eat my own foot. Then Mercedes and Flayn gets in on it and suddenly the wedding planning committee is getting out of hand. Dedue somehow gets involved because, of anyone, he’s the most determined that Dimitri has a fantastic wedding. No one can stop this man, he’s going to crack down harder than anyone on the wedding planning. With Annette, Flayn and Mercedes by his side he is an unstoppable force of nature. The palace cooks tell horror stories for years to come, the gardeners still fear his face.

It’s a good thing Faerghus is blue coded, because if this was a traditional Russian style wedding than a red wedding dress would clash like heck with Byleth’s mint green hair.

I bet that they do that crystal glass shattering thing where you throw down the glass to tell how many happy years the couple will be together and Dimitri’s monster strength shatters the thing to dust.

Sylvain probably begged to be the best man, but the position was firmly given to Ingrid, who is the single owner of a brain cell during this entire event. Felix is forced to give a speech, he calls the King a Boar that somehow fooled Byleth in marriage. Ingrid tries to stop him, but it’s too late. Sylvain then takes over and it somehow gets worse. Goddess damn it you guys, you had one job and that was to pretend you weren’t awful for a moment. 

Gilbert may or may not have spent the entire time crying. No one noticed because Alois cried louder. Ashe spent the whole time taking a sniff or two as well.

Dimitri’s last name is effing Welsh, he totally carves a Welsh Love Spoon for Byleth and nothing can convince me otherwise.

And dear GODDESS the guest list.

Don’t you think for one moment Claude isn’t going to drag his butt all the way from his plans to witness THIS disaster. Hilda is right on his heels because there’s no way she’s not going to miss a party this big. In fact, all the Golden Deer show up. It’s wild. The after party is the nightmare of many a castle servant for years to come.

The staff of Garreg Mach are all there too. A certain nurse and songstress is seen consuming alcohol in high volumes and crying about treachery. How dare Byleth get married? They were supposed to die single together if Manuela couldn’t find a man.

Everything falls to disaster so fast that it’s legendary. Faerghus tells stories of it for years to come. There are dramatic plays. Dimitri despairs. 

i can’t remember if i already posted this AND i probably sang the words wrong BUT sophia’s my wife!!!!!

When lemony snicket said “i will love you as misfortune loves orphans, as fire loves innocence and as justice loves to sit and watch while everything goes wrong. i will love you until all the codes and hearts have been broken and until every anagram and egg has been unscrambled. i will love you as we grow older, which has just happened, and has happened again, and happened several days ago, continuously, and then several years before that, and will continue to happen as the spinning hands of every clock and the flipping pages of every calendar mark the passage of time. i will love you as we find ourselves farther and farther from one another, where once we were so close that we could slip the curved straw, and the long, slender spoon, between our lips and fingers respectively. i will love you if you don’t marry me. i will love you if you marry someone else, and i will love you if you have a child, and i will love you if you have two children, or three children, or even more, although I personally think three is plenty, and i will love you if you never marry at all, and never have children, and spend your years wishing you had married me after all, and I must say that on late, cold nights i prefer this scenario out of all the scenarios i have mentioned. that, beatrice, is how i will love you even as the world goes on its wicked way”
