EFFORTPOST Neurodivergent waifu shipper of a game that came out 4 years ago discourseposts on r/shitpostemblem, embodies the stereotype of his shippingbase. You'll never guess OP's identity!

Explanation: FEEL FREE TO SKIP THE WORDS WORDS WORDS

Fire Emblem is a video game franchise using turn-based tactics a la Xcom or Valkyria Chronicles. Just like Xcom, characters can die permanently, but unlike it, you cannot have an indefinite amount of them, they're all set in script and you must be cautious not to end the game with a skeleton crew. To avoid this, you have in each game a myriad of literallywho characters whose entire personality can only be assumed with as little as one line of dialogue. Naturally, you've had ship wars occurring because of this in the depths of obscure niche forums because of this.

Back in the early 2010's, The franchise was on death row after a few releases that were commercial flops, until they pulled out one last-ditch effort and released Awakening on 3DS. The devs made it a "Swan Song" game to they could properly bow down with the curtain-fall, placing references and shout-outs to previous opuses, and especially, adding a long-asked self-insert character as well as dating sim mechanics to their game. And guess what, it was a huge fricking success and brought the series back from palliative care. Fire Emblem decided to ride this success by adding more and more development to this dating mechanic, including Same-s*x relationships and whatnot.

In the most commercially successful opus so far, Fire Emblem: Three Houses that came out in 2019. They opted for a fun mechanic. The Game is not linear. Instead, you can follow different routes, each with different ending, and none canon.In this game (You) are Byleth, a Self-Insert Avatar with the personality of a plastic cup, mercenary-turned-instructor at an academy that gathers the sons and daughters of Nobility throughout three different kingdoms. Ensues a 5 years time-skip, the continent is now drowned in a three-sided war, and you have to pick which class of former students to do war crimes and murder your other former students with.

All sides have righteous and less righteous causes and motives, so naturally this makes the path for pages and pages of discourse. But we're talking about a video game played by neurodivergents so really, their allegiance entirely depends on which teenage noble makes their peepee the hardest.

Thus lot of people love to side with the white-hair Empress girl Edelgard, (on the left), because she wants to establish social reforms & get rid of a caste system & burn the catholic church & other gay shit. But most importantly she's le heckin bisexual and you can frick her as a male AND female avatar! So it's a huge lesbian victory. To the point, Female!Avatarxedelgard shipper regularly bully Male!AvatarxEdelgard because they commit lesbian erasure by shipping her with a dude!

But many as well ride with the blonde guy in the middle, Dimitri, prince of a northern kingdom and estranged step-brother of Edelgard, whom, Spoiler alert the war turns into a bloodthirsty psychopath because of the back-stabbing of Edelgard and PTSD which girl players love because of his high "I can fix him" potential.

And that makes the Pro-Edelgard team fricking mad. Because 1, Dimitri's route exposes the bad sides of their precious waifu bean's self-righteous extremism, and 2, like the braindead shippers they are, they can't stand the fact people don't masturbate to their waifu in general.

Because of the above, ever since the game came out in 2019, the Fire Emblem forums are flooded with non-stop posts and longposts of Edelgard (Called Edeleth, for shipping her with the avatar, Byleth), whom are definitely the most rabid shippers of the bunch. This essentially has become the local meme in the local subs and forums, which Edelth occupy the role of your schizophrenic downstairs neighbour. /r/shitpostemblem, the meme sub of the franchise regularly likes to jab at them for their unhinged behaviour

NOW THE REAL DRAMA

Anyway, couple days ago the weekly Edeleth discourse post was submitted as a wordswordswords meme on /r/shitpostemblem by a rabid shipper.

OP proceeds to get shat on in the comment section:

>This is either the best ironic post I've seen on this sub or the worst unironic one.

>Seek help

>Please play another video game.

>Time to play Shitpost or Shit Post?

>My is it already time for the biweekly F!Edeleth unhinged post?

here comes the coup de théâtre

>The fact that I can't tell if this is a shitpost or if you're actually using a meme to be anti-FDimileth is hilarious.

>Looking at OP's profile, it looks like the latter, but it could very well be both

>So apparently OP is 16 years old. That explains why she's doing... this.

My, what could be the post they're linking to? Answer: An r/honesttransgender rant:

Turns out OP is a 16 year-old, MtF poster

BUT WAIT, IT GETS BETTER

>otaku men with yuri fetishes acting like they're progressive for shipping two female anime characters are the funniest creatures

>OP: I am literally a lesbian.

>Lesbians who act like they're hot shit for hating on men like it doesn't make them absolutely insufferable are the second funniest creatures.

tl;DR: Neurodivergent franchise shipper embodies the stereotypical meme of its own self on a shitpost subreddit. Proceeds to get shat on by the community, is revealed to be an mtf teenager.
