hmm ya know... i've been in the fire emblem fandom since awakening (so around 9ish years!!) and it's so fun and refreshing to see a f/f lord ship as popular as el&by especially compared to the f/m verison
this isn't me bashing on f/m el&by because it's the same ship as f/f, but in every fandom (not just fire emblem) it's so rare to find a femslash ship being the most popular. in most fandoms m/m and f/m rein king. [you can see a large distinction like this when you look at the bleagles and lions fandoms]
going back to my awakening days, the way the game was structured left very little room for queer couples despite the little bit of gay-hinting or butt-of-the-joke content the game did give us. do you know how hard it was (still kinda is!) to find f!robin/lucina content? we had so little to go off of, we even started hacking our 3DSes just to have the option to be gay and let characters get gay married.
and when fates rolled around and finally gave the avatar options for gay marriage (1 man & 1 woman each), they locked us out of being able to have children like the other couples could! like they literally added extra lines of code to keep the same sex couples from having kids! so we made mods for that game too to fix the child mechanic and give us more gay options.
to see the next game roll around and give us actual blatantly bisexual characters and allow more options for same sex marriage was just amazing. I've genuinely never had so much fun in a canon compliant FE fandom
so anyways, I just think it's neat to see how far the games have come and in turn how the fandom has changed too. sorry to y'all out there that want more m!el&by content, I get it I really do!! and at the same time, if you want more content I would definitely recommend trying your own hand at it! after all, it's what I used to do too when there wasn't any content for my ships
