Dec. 7th, 2012 07:53 pmDuring a long drive in the car yesterday, I remembered one of the first media forms I had extensive "headcanon" for.
The Baby-sitters Club.
Yup.
And it was as wacky as the headcanon of any ten-year-old, I'm sure.
-x-
You know, I'd never quite recognized until now that Delmud actually has NO "predestined" lover in FE4. None. I'd always noted in the back of my head that there wasn't an "ideal" pairing for him, but it never sank in that there wasn't even some offbeat underused pairing lurking in the script, his equivalent to Scathach/Lana. Huh. And there's no sketchy late-game sibling conversations either (hi, Arthur and Tinny), because Nanna has Aless to be sketchy with.
I'm guessing the developers forgot about him, but the upshot is that Lachy's charismatic son has worse luck with the ladies than Corple. From a meta level I have to wonder if Del didn't realize that hooking up with random people on the battlefield when you're a hormone-charged teen is not actually a path to happiness and fulfillment. He'd certainly have cause to be skeptical.
