Reviews for Interviews with a Tactician
RealCoolDude chapter 42 . 23h
This is probably the most accurate Severa I've read, which I can say because I've read too much FE:A fanfics like everyone here. And by accurate I mean a naggy, immature distraction from important war effort things. Actually, on that note, all of the future children so far represent a more realistic immaturity that you'd expect from not being raised against such behaviors. Despite being older, they still feel like the kids they are. Hm. Good job.

Seeing that this was updated recently was a pleasant sight! Really don’t see it as filler because a lot of things happened what with the Robin, Cordelia, and Severa stuff. I also curious about more of Cynthia’s thoughts on Robin. Can’t wait to see how all that turns out. This was another great read, and hopefully you’ve been doing well all this time. Thanks!

Every chapter is always worth the wait whether its filler or not, and the part where Lissa called Robin out on his willingness to marry more than one woman when he was always the one against romance was hilarious. There's much more I could say about this chapter as well, but I'll keep it short, this is easily my favorite story when it comes to FE fanfiction, and the interactions between everyone is always so good, keep up the good work!

"For the record, I deny ever spying or being a spy!"
*thirty seconds later*
"Didn't you hear? We called her a spy and she *didn't* deny it!"

Severa, I think all your shouting and shrieking has caused some hearing damage.

Dear god, everything the girl does annoys me in so many small ways. Group of people having fun? They're nerd! And doing it wrong!

Master Tactician holds a meeting for people to discuss tactics? I'll wait til after the meeting to yell at him for his tactics!

Young girl with awesome happy parent being just like her sister? SPY!

You may call this chapter filler, I call it well worth checking this fic everyday since February for updates.

Thanks for the chapter!

While you might have called it filler, I still very much enjoyed the interactions between all of the characters. The humor was on-point and hilarious as always. And the small character development we got with Cordelia becoming more conscious of Robin and Severa slowly starting to acclimate to the situation was nice to see as well.

Can't wait for the next update.

He/She LIVES! Glad you've been okay though this whole corona situation.

This is hands down my favorite fanfic on this site. Btw I love how you fit robin and severa's non-family support in there.

Hope you don't need to take seven months to update again and that you update soon!

Was pleasantly surprised to see the notification for this chapter pop up. Always glad to see any updates to this story so I don't mind if it's filler. If anything, there was a good amount of development in this chapter.

Owain and Cynthia's reunion was funny and definitely how I expected it to be. Cynthia was surprisingly level-headed when she explained how she wanted to approach her mom but had to refrain from revealing she was her daughter. But unsuprisingly that doesn't go as planned as she starts fangirling and I loved how you incorporated Sumia and Cynthia's support into that scene.

Cordelia starting to slowly realize her feelings for Robin was great. We've been aware of Sumia's feelings for Robin for a while now, so I'm glad to see that Cordelia's feelings have been kicked into gear and we're seeing her becoming more conscious of him.

Robin's stating his beliefs on polyamorous relationships using the Valentia bit I think was a genius move. Now we have a reason as to why Robin would agree to the OT3 with Sumia and Cordelia. It'll be fun to see how the other 2 will feel about that. Especially since Cordelia displayed some jealousy over Robin giving Sumia more attention than her.

My favorite parts of this chapter was definitely Severa's bits. I liked how it showcased how she was definitely Robin's daughter. Her using warped and roundabout logic to conclude Morgan's a spy would be something Robin would do. The need to find answers to questions was something Severa said that she inherited from her father. Her being a complete and utter nerd for Total Warfare is an obvious connection but it was hilarious how it was revealed that she was a fan when started giving in-depth criticism on how to play the game after dismissing them for playing it. I also liked how you incorporated Severa and Robin's Support as a way for Severa to confirm that Robin is Robin by gauging his answer to it. Definitely felt sorry for Severa when she felt hurt at his dismissal and she herself realized it was her own fault.

Anyways, thanks as always for the chapter. Can't wait for your next update.

This story is probably my favorite fire emblem story of all time.. I had a huge grin on my face the entire time I watched it- especially the parts where with Severa inadvertently bonding with everyone. You balance the serious moments with the funny moments too. Hopefully we see more Lucina, but whatever you write is plain gold.

Damn Infinis - if you didn't say in the beginning, I'd say this definitely is part of the main story.
Kudos for developing Robin-Sumia-Cordy so well - this is the first fic I've ever read that I'm actually cheering for a polygamous relationship, and I usually loath those kinds of stories.
Ditto with Severa and Cynth's development - you're really doing a good job of illustrating how they would react to the insanity that is Robin and Morgan.
Keep up the work man, no pressure!l

I have to wonder what will be the tipping point for all these secrets, and what will be the fallout when they all come out to light.

Robin: And what if YOU'RE Morgan's mother, huh?
Cordelia: [internet dial-up noises]

I'm glad to see you're doing all right. Was getting worried that the longer-than-usual delay was because of illness.

I'm actually happy this was an interlude because that gave Severa and Cynthia time to interact with the rest of the cast. When the last chapter ended with them joining the army, I was thinking they'd take a few chapters to settle in like with what happened with Inigo and Owain, but instead they got into gear right away. As always I like how you're integrating the support conversations into the main story, and I'm especially looking forward to seeing Severa and Robin's progress. Both because I think Robin could use a bit of pushback on the tactics front and because it's essentially Robin against his future self's teachings, which sounds interesting.

Cynthia is a wacky character so I was expecting her to be like Morgan and help set off the funnier supports, but instead she had a surprising amount of (relatively) serious scenes. I liked how she was the one to talk about Severa's childhood hobbies. I'm looking forward to seeing how she'll interact with Morgan.

Meanwhile with Severa, I was interested in seeing how you'd write her now that she's joined the army since she's probably the future child with the most amount of stuff going on. Pleasantly surprised you didn't have her get right into her beef with Cordelia and instead continued focusing on her issues with Robin. I liked how she's more similar than she thinks to the current Robin, what with that last line on rules and order in the game. I'm also looking forward to seeing how she'll interact with Morgan.

Really, I'm looking forward to the whole situation with Robin's romantic life kicking into high gear. Cordelia's finally noticing him romantically, and I'm thinking Cynthia will end up accidentally revealing her parentage and pushing Sumia into confessing. And again, there's the whole situation with Morgan. She's already won over most of the future children, but can she charm her sisters? Will Robin even accept that he has other daughters, especially if they don't like his current one? So many possibilities I almost want to follow that more than the main plot.

But the main plot is the main plot for a reason, and first off I gotta say I liked how you spiced up the (getting slightly stale) grim flashback dream segments with Gregor. That was cute. This was an interlude so I wasn't expecting much to happen, but I appreciate how these extra chapters spent on Valm make this section of the game feel more important. Sure it's technically got nothing to do with Grima, but now it feels more like a proper sidestory than a detour. Robin struggling with the darker aspects of his personality will give Lucina more reason to seriously consider offing him too. And hey, more chances to reference other Fire Emblem games in what was supposed to have been the last hurrah for the series.

I'm glad to see this story is still continuing, and I'm looking forward to the next update. Maybe next time Yarne will actually join!
