Reviews for A Change Of Tactics
Dreameater2579 chapter 19 . 21h
I love your work. The wait was worth it.

Now to critique. For me there's 2 things that really stuck in my caw. 1st-ly and most irritatingly was Robin doing the whole "This is my 1st time" angle, for me it seems really reckless. The 2nd thing was the degree of detailed descriptions in Say'ri flash backs, for me it was a little much.

Now for something completely different. Did know Naga apparently can manifest into the world without a vessel? She's summonable in FE Heroes. Do you have any plans for her joining Robin's harem? Tiki is her daughter according to the wiki so divine oyakodon?
She also has another maybe daughter/maybe reincarnation known as Nagi? She, much like Tiki, helped Marth. By creating a weaker version of Falcion. I can't think of any reason for her not to be still alive and I would think she would want to meet the guy that her mother and sister are so interested in. Think she might show up?
(it would be interesting to have Robin try to seduce them. In Naga's case, she knows exactly what she's getting into and what Robin is up to. In case of Nagi he doesn't know anything about her at all).
Finally there's Emmeryn. Is she dead dead? or is it possible to find her? There is a possibility of recruiting Emmeryn in game as she survives her fall (paralogue 20). Plus there is the fact that Robin is the only S class support she has. Robin (M&F) and Morgan (daughter) are the only ones she has supports with period. Nobody else not even Chrom or Lissa. What do you think? Do you think you could use her or will she remain a memory?

It's took me about 2 days of periodic reading but i've finished reading everything you've currently got posted on this story. I didn't want to write a review before finish everything you've completed so far and I can say without a doubt this is one of the best stories I've written. Of course a majority of the word count are lemon scenes, but i've always appreciated having an actual story around such. I don't know how this doesn't have more favs/follows/reviews but don't sell yourself short, this story is well good.

Lucina is a very hard to wake up or is it the alcohol?
I was very nervous she will wake up and see them.
Or she was already awaked and just pretent to be sleeping?

Sorry for bad english.

I've always liked your writing and characterisation in this story. You really have a talent for this. I just hope the next chapter focuses on Cynthia and Noire tbh. You've been teasing it for a while and I would love to see Tharja's confrontation with Noire over how she's just as obsessed with her "father" as her mother is and Robin's reaction to how literal "Like mother like daughter" can be.

Great chap my guy I love this story so much, I would hate to see this not finish, also please do Kogerou and Say'ri threesome next. I was scared that Lucina would wake up, I know she will find out eventually. I do hope it soon, so Robin can stop hiding it from her.. I was trying to find your new story but it not on your page. I am guessing you are working on it at the moment

Say'ri was definately a 7/10 on the difficulty meter to Robin due to the sheer number of days of forced abstinence he had to endure.
I honestly thought he could get Kagerou to join in as well...
Twotwentytwo chapter 19 . 7/22
Poor Say'ri, she never stood a chance. Though she's definitely happier this way so I suppose it all works out in the end. I'm guessing her ninja will also end up quite happy.

I don't mind the flashbacks, I find them pretty interesting and it helps flesh out the characters' feelings more. You're not overdoing them at all so it's fine.

I'm also curious how much Tiki knows about Robin's condition, because letting her friend wander into a den of debauchery to make Say'ri happy seems like a very Tiki move

Good chapter overall
Sperance chapter 19 . 7/22
Alas, another chapter. As always it's long and meaty. As always, plublished right when my work shifts make it hard to read, enjoy and review it. Why are we so badly in synch, JL?!

On to the chapter itself... Not gonna lie it's probably my favourite yet, when read back to back with the previous one. I always felt Say'ri was criminally underutilized in the game, both in the overall story and the supports. So anything putting her in the spotlight is welcome.

And what a spotlight it was! Honestly, I felt closer to Say'ri than the other targets, mostly because the main reason she 'failed' to entice Robin (besides his feelings for Lucina) was far more familiar to me than Lissa's 'loves two people' one or Tharja's... Tharjaness. She was simply too shy and insecure to be open with her feelings. Like the gift bottle scene showed, it was always "tomorrow" or "next week" or "after the war". It's so damned relatable!

Speaking of the wine, it was interesting that Robin, knowing it's significance, still drank it after careful deliveration. Why would Chrom ask for that? Considering Lon'qu was there, perhaps Lissa's marriage problems began earlier than she believes. Lon'qu was a gynaphobe, after all.

It's honestly nice to see the more 'sinister' side of Robin once again. It's been a while since he showed his true manipulator chops and he didn't disappoint. Still, a little thing I noticed. I think it's the first time Robin has actually OUTRIGHT lied (about the sexing Lucina thing) rather than let the woman assume.

Though he still did that beatifully. After all, he didn't technically LIE about his duty to Lucina. She IS dear to him and he DOES owe Chrom everything he now has. It's just that this is a 'duty' he's outright eager to fulfill.

I admit I laughed out loud at Say'ri's reason to come to Ylisse. "Oh, no Queen Sumia. Worry not I'm not here to steal your daughter's husband-to-be. I only came here to get him to knock me up". That's so audacious Robin himself could have come up with it.

And speaking of Sumia, these two chapters showed a side to her that's a bit darker than most depict and I loved it. Nothing bad or evil or wrong, but it showed why Cordelina felt she could share her troubles with her: Sumia is 100% on board with the 'fated pairings' to the point she's willing to hurt her friends for it. Oh, not maliciously and it comes from a place of love. But at the end of the day NOBODY including her actually knows Lucina and Robin are a thing. Say'ri, in this light, is perfectly entitled to try her luck and Sumia outright tried to sabotage her. I love it.

Still my favourite scene has to be the one when Say're first sees Morgan. The denial, the way her subconcious picks up on the details instantly and has her body fail before her brain catches up, that single moment where she finally realizes she waited too long. It's surprisingly pignant and visceral and I loved it.

Probably forgetting some point I wanted to make but eh.

Good job as always, I'm looking forward to future chapters!

Finally got around to reading this chapter and as always I love to see your work. Say'ri wasn't a character I think of for favorites but as always I love how you have characters work and react. It was nice to see Robin caught off guard as well with some of her actions. I hope to see a new chapter soon
vianmeor chapter 19 . 7/21
It brightens my day to see you update as it is always a rare treat! Amazing work and detail as usual, and your brand of writing is pretty much the kind I enjoy.

My main criticism would be in your pacing; this chapter should have been out long before and it feels like most of the early contents should have been last chapter.

Dont get me wrong, this chapter was greatjust nowhere as juicy or heavy as was built up to be since they finally did get together but your works tend to have the fun things happen AFTER that.

Still, that just means better things to look forward to. Best of luck and thank you for your hard work!
Madgizmo chapter 19 . 7/21
Considering there are maybe 3 Robin and Say'ri fics that are long than 10k words, i am just glad we get something. She and Tiki are probably my favorite people to pair Robin with.

when i googled fundoshi it came up as : the traditional Japanese undergarment for adult males, made from a length of cotton. so why would Say'ri be wearing them? unless google was wrong.
Project Pseudonym chapter 19 . 7/20
It's wonderful to see you back writing this story! 2020 has been a crazy year and it's good to know that you're back. I haven't played the game so I don't know how far this story is to the end but I'm willing to bet that Tiki is the last one remaining. So with one more woman left to claim, it's time for Robin to seriously think about how to break the news to Lucina without all this blowing up in everyone's collective faces.

Also, have you thought about writing a similar story with Fire Emblem: Three Houses? I'd love to see what you might come up with the setting.
Superdrama11 chapter 19 . 7/20
Nice chapter, hopefully the wait for the next one won't be nearly as long. Say'ri is an underrated girls (Truth be told, in my breakthroughs, I prefer pairing Robins with the girls outside the ones who have children like Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, or Flavia)

Honestly though, it really didn't need to be so long.

Truth be told, I'm hoping Robin would hurry it up and knock up the girls. I hope he convince Lucina very soon since it just getting egregious now.

In any case, so who do you have planned next?
