It is very late and I am very tired. I also don't feel like going to bed. So I'm going to halfheartedly do a post that I've always thought would be fun but never had enough motivation to pull the trigger on. My top 9 Waifus and Husbandos (am I using those terms correctly? I'm not a Weeb so idk) from Fire Emblem. Not necessarily a list of my favorite characters, but characters I would totally marry if I existed in the various FE universes. Only doing characters from games I've played, not counting Heroes. Ladies first.
9. Rebecca (FE7)- has a cutesy hometown girl vibe, and I love me some archers
8. L'Arachael (FE8)- would never be a dull moment with her reckless "holy war" attitude; royalty is a plus (spoilers?)
7. Cherche (Awakening)- redheads and Wyvern Riders will both be on this list again, Cherche makes up for slightly bland personality because she brings both to the table
6. Effie (Conquest)- always wanted to be with a woman than can bench press me. Real talk, if I'm married to Effie and someone breaks into our house trying to murder us, I'm gonna hide and let her handle it
5. Setsuna (Birthright)- the top five ladies were really competitive for me. Setsuna get's major points for her awesome short hair and being an archer, but the ditzy-ness holds her back a bit
4. Lyn (FE7)- Fire Emblem version of a Native American (very cool), also happens to be royalty. Extra points for strong, independent woman archetype
3. Scarlet (Birthright)- also short hair, rides a wyvern, has cute freckles, and a lot of heart
2. Anna (Awakening)- redhead with substantial cute factor, versatile skills, and good with money
1. Camilla (Conquest)- tried not to but couldn't. Super attractive, prioritizes family, whole-heartedly dedicated, and rides a dragon. 'Nuff said.
Now for the fellas!
9. Heath (FE7)- just try to imagine what it would be like to marry someone with the confidence to wear his hair like Bon Jovi used to. Kind of a joke but not really
8. Lon'qu (Awakening)- strong silent type with hair like Spike Spiegel. Maybe endearing that he gets embarrassed around women
7. Gaius (Awakening)- kind of a bad boy but a kid at heart, which is a great combination
6. Leo (Conquest)- wise and carries a quiet strength without coming off as prideful or arrogant (depending on who you ask, I suppose)
5. Joshua (FE8)- the kind of guy who tries to act like a scoundrel but truly is the farthest thing from one. Major bonus for wearing a pirate hat
4. Xander (Conquest)- strong leader who can do the right thing even in tough situations or when others are pressuring him to do otherwise
3. Hector (FE7)- most powerful warrior in his country's most powerful army. Will dunk on bad guys with his axe and isn't afraid to have fun doing it
2. Saber (Echoes)- insanely attractive, has an eye patch and wonderful hair. 50% tough guy/scoundrel, 50% heart of gold. Has similar appeal to Han Solo, but even more handsome
1. Niles (Conquest)- insanely attractive, has an eye patch and wonderful hair. Has an air of mystery that draws you in like a black hole, and is light-hearted enough to be fun to spend time with
This was fun even if it was dumb. I think I'm tired enough to go to bed now. Tweet your favorite Waifus and Husbandos to me if you want. I want to talk about Fire Emblem characters more. Just in general. Like let's have an argument about Fire Emblem characters. I'll start. Ryoma is stupid. There now you go.
