#alfred von firene

[frickingnerd]

can't help but worry about you

pairing: alfred x gn!reader

summary: you get attacked during battle...

alfred watched from across the battlefield as the enemy's blade hits your arm. as soon as he had seen someone attacking you from behind, he had called out for you, but it was already too late by then. he rushed over, dodging the enemy's attacks on his way to you. but by the time he arrived, you had already dealt with your opponent. 

"y/n!"

your head swung around when you heard your boyfriend call out for you.

"are you hurt? you look hurt! are you sure you're okay?"

he gently held you in his arms, worried you might break if he wasn't careful. he couldn't tell how bad it was. what if he would lose you!? he couldn't even stand thinking about that...

"i'm alright, alfred…"

you assured him and pulled away from his embrace, instead gently cupping his cheeks.

"it was just a scratch. he mostly hit my armor, so i was lucky! please, don't worry about me… we have many more enemies ahead of us, so we should focus our energy on them"

despite you telling him not to worry, alfred couldn't forget what he saw so easily. but you were right. you were doing okay and he had time to worry about you and tend to your injuries once this battle was won! 

alfred pulled you into his arms one last time, giving you a passionate kiss, before grabbing his weapon again.

"alright, then let's do this! but don't die on me, my love, alright~?"

okay so with more of the fe engage names revealed, we can start getting out the red string and make connections that may or may not be there but that i definitely see because im starved for content. bit of a long post sorry lol

for starters, the trailers revealed so far show us a few characters from each region, as well as the region names:

Litos: Alear, Lumere, Vander, Framme, Kuran (Framme's twin, no localized name yet)

Firene: Alfred, Céline, Louis, Etie, Chloé, Bushuron (not Localized yet but I've seen people spell it Boucheron), Eve (the Queen, only mentioned/voiced in the newest trailer+some JP Tweets but no images)

Brodia: Diamant, Citrinne, Alcryst

Solm: Timerra, Fogato

Elusia: Hortensia, Ivy, Hyacinth

Other: Sombron, Zephia, Veyle

and if you squint, the main four nations seem to have some theme going on each

all the Brodia names are themed after gems/minerals (diamond, citrine, and crystal)

Solm seema to have nature-based names (Timerra sounding like tierra, Spanish for dirt/earth, and Fogato sounding like fogata which means campfire, as well as gato being cat)

Elusian names are based on plants (Hortensia being hydrangea in Spanish, and Ivy and Hyacinth are a bit more obvious)

Firene names are a bit less... object?-based and more like. Region based. They all seem to have European or European-sounding names, mostly French (Céline, Louis, Chloé) while others seem more English (Alfred, Eve)

Litosian(Litian?) names besides the dragons don't seeeem? to have a set theme so far. But Vander apparently means "good man" and Fram can mean "brave and bold" which seems like it fits her personality. Not from Litos also but I guess Zephia is just Sophia spelt weird

Then there's the ones i call "plot relevant names":

most know at this point that Alear can mean alloy/to fuse/to combine (fitting for the theme of the game plus other things I covered in a different post),

Lumera means light (with her being a Divine Dragon who fought against the Fell dragon, her being Light fits),

Sombron ("(big) shadow" in spanish) von Fell Dragon,

and Veyle (which sounds a bit too much like veil for it to be coincidence i think. like she's hiding a secret, and the introduction posts for her in FE's Japanese Twitter imply as much mystery)

Going back on the other nations for a bit though, there's one character currently unaccounted for that we only know one or two details about: Prince Alcryst

he's only been mentioned by name in this description of Citrinne's outfit in the first trailer:

"Citrinne, Prince Alcryst's retainer"

We Don't see Citrinne in the rest of the first trailer... but she does appear in the second one:

different outfits, but the earrings and headpiece match, as well as the hair and eye color. so i think we can safely assume it's her. she's seen during the Brodia segment of the new trailer, so that means Alcryst probably is the Brodian Prince... but,

the one we get explicit confirmation on is Diamant.

So. this means he has a brother! (or that Citrinne isn't from Brodia but why would she be presented there otherwise), And we just so happen to see someone with Citrinne who might fit:

This little archer guy!

Similar motifs in armor, same red eyes - and this one might be a bit of a long shot, but just by his general demeanor in the few shots he's in, he seems to be a bit less confident that Diamant. which I think would make their naming scheme really meaningful, with the "older golden brother" being a diamond and the "younger, insecure brother" only being a mere crystal in comparison

also they're together in this shot lol

and he seems important enough to be right next to Alear in this other shot against the Elusian army

And so far it seems like it's being set up so that most of the regions might have royal siblings? Firene has Alfred and Céline officially, Timerra and Fogato are the only dark skinned characters shown so far in Solm so I wouldn't put it past intsys for them to be siblings too, Ivy and Hortensia seem like they might have a similar dynamic in Elusia, and Diamant and Alcryst would fit right in (and this would leave Alear an only child unless there's a secret child somewhere. glancing at Veyle but not touching that can of worms now). fire emblem loves its tragic sibling stories (just look at how many there are in Heroes) so this seems like a believable possibility lol

Alfred von Fire Emblem for character ask!

Alfred Von Firene let's go.

1.My first impression of them

He looks and sounds like an absolute dork... i like him

2. When I think I truly started to like them (or dislike them, if you've sent me a character I don't like)

Reasonable answer : When I unlocked all his supports

Actual answer : When he looked at his mirror counterpart and went "damn! even in another world, I don't get any !"

3.A song that reminds me of them

Jonetsu ni Tsuite Katarubeki 2, 3 no Shinjintsu - Pastoral yori - by Ludwig van Beethoven Beethes

I don't answer ship ask because I don't really ship him with anyone, at least romantically. Platonic would be with Céline because their siblinghood is very sweet.

6. Least favorite ship of them

Romantic Céline/Alfred.

7. A quote of them that you remember

" Hmm... Looks like the Alfred in this world isn't so buff either. Huh. I wonder if it's just hard for me to build muscle no matter which world I'm in..." (don't @ me)

8. Your favorite outfit of them

I like his Somniel outfit.

9. Your least favorite outfit of them

Unlike what Céline believes, the barbarian outfit doesn't suit him at all.

10. Describe the character in one sentence

Dork.

11. What’s the first thing you think about when thinking about the character?

His solo ending haunts me.

14. Best storyline they had

I like how they explain that his disease is something he tries to overcome when he is just a really nice guy and that it pushes him to try harder to become stronger.

When do you think they were at their happiest?

When his with his friends.

When do you think they were at their lowest?

When he collapsed because of his illness in his support with Céline.

When do you think they acted the most ooc ?

His support with Lulu are a bit weird. Alfred was shown to be one of the people who don't worship the ground they walk on so it's a bit weird for Alfred to be all care about Lulu, even if it was to demonstrate "oh look at Alfred, he is like always, trying so hard to please his friend but he is so clumsy what a dork!" I think something that would have made more sense to show him as a supportive friend would've been to have him discuss with Lulu about their insecurities in being a good Divine dragon.

When do you think they were being "themselves" the most?

I think he is always himself.

If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet?

They would be besties. Same personality but Roland is a buff, Alfred would love to know his secret.

The most unnecessary thing they ever did?

Dying in his solo ending.
