I think the most crushing autism experience is friends/romantic partners eventually figuring out youre masking bcz if you keep it up long enough its also off-putting & unnatural and then insisting you act like yourself- only to realize they in fact do not like your real self and make comments about how annoying/different youre acting all of a sudden. ❤️🧎♀️

I need like. A Don't Make Me Tap The Sign about Alfonse Fire Emblem specifically about his character and how he's perceived sometimes. Like Book 7 Chapter 12 he's just like that. He's always been like that.
I feel like I've def said it more eloquently before probably in Book 5 (regarding Reginn and Fáfnir), where like. He Will try for and favor a peaceful solution, but if it's clear there's no way out without violence and killing the threat/adversary. He won't hesitate. He won't falter. Crit line literally references this actually, "Above all, the mission".
Like I feel like the difference between Alfonse just doing Alfonse things (most recent chapter Seidr having to kill Kvasir, no way out of it -- plus also even considering killing Seidr herself, if that were to end Gullveig) and the Letizia moment was like. The Letizia moment was a BOLD gambit he played, which is WHY it was so shocking in the story and as an audience member, and why I think it left such a deep impression. Still very in character for him and the way he thinks/problem solves on the fly, carefully evaluating the situation and what would be the best move with the highest rate of success. (THAT LAST BIT ACTUALLY........ he'll do this even with low rates of success, out of sheer stubbornness as well. Which is why I still stand by him being rash at times, a LOT of his rashness is disguised as "calculated risks" and he just has the willpower to pull it off. The worst-best type of guy to me LMFAO)
Going back a bit though, the Letizia moment also stands out as an example of how far Alfonse is willing to go to win, especially if his back is pushed against the wall. It gives you a FASCINATING glimpse into his character and into his mind. A lot of times Lif would be an enigma to me, beyond the basics, character wise. Like yeah I guess that would fuck up a guy. But his methods (working and making contracts with gods when especially as Alfonse he knows better than that??) would be inscrutable to me. But everything absolutely finally clicked when Alfonse made that gambit, playing to Letizia's personality and whatever preconceived notions she may have, that maybe Alfonse could find a weak spot in and take advantage of. Lif is doing the exact same thing. His judgement is maybe a little worse for wear on account of, well *gestures vaguely to all of him* but he's still very much doing The Same Thing.
LIKE. I'm def straying from my point which is. Alfonse isn't shy about having to resort to violence. It Is a resort. But if it has to be done, it will be done. Any damage control (such as Sharena's feelings -- she has CLEARLY been extremely upset these past chapters) can be resolved later. (This.... is also fascinating to me..... bc it's always been clear to me his loved ones are the people who ground him, who stop him from losing himself, from becoming cruel in his practicality and tendency for detachment. There Is his morality as well -- but his loved ones are a huge part in what keeps him kind.)
I guess what I'm really trying to say is. Hit me up next time Alfonse is playing 4D chess with the enemy or throwing himself in a ditch on purpose just to indulge his baby sister's current pet project. THOSE feel like standout examples of Alfonse Off The Shits (but still completely in character for him tbh), while like. The rest is just par for the course for him. Just another (especially traumatizing) Tuesday.

“Stop laughing,” He says, irritably, holding the ice to his bump.
“No,” Han Sooyoung says as she continues to laugh and makes a sandwich with his bread, using his butter knife and his groceries that he brought. He has never known another ungrateful person. No, that’s wrong. He knows Yoo Joonghyuk.
He has never known another pair of ungrateful people, Kim Dokja rephrases.
At least, she makes a sandwich for him too. Though she stuffs it in his mouth instead of giving it to him like a normal person.
“So what’s the plan?” Kim Dokja asks as he eats it. It’s mediocre.
“We date.” Han Sooyoung says.
“Yeah I got that but what’s the plan.”
She looks at him. “Have you not dated before — sorry wrong question — do not know what dating is — sorry wrong —”
“I know what dating is,” He interrupts.

Not this article "I just learned bokoblins chat with their friends and now I feel bad for killing them" WHAT DO YOU MEAN???? they have dance parties!!! They cook around a campfire as a community! They sleep with a lookout!!! How are you just learning this now after 6 years?? I physically cannot bring myself to go near them while they're dancing. Let them celebrate, let them love and ritualise and enjoy their time together. My only consolation is that the blood moon will bring them together again and immortalise their time spent with one another 💞💞💞

on a tangential note. although this circumstance is very different than the one i was complaining about, the thing that prompted me to make these posts today was my friend being removed from someone's server because they found this qrt to be too fetishizing of gay men. and i just want you to all sit and realize what level of discourse we're on
