Time for some more Three Houses

Despite the fact that they haven't seen each other in 20 years (and apparently Jeralt disappeared "without a trace" and Alois hasn't heard anything despite the fact that he leads a mercenary corps, so not exactly a reclusive lifestyle here), Jeralt is quick to be on his way. Alois almost consents and then somehow becomes self-aware of how JRPG plots work and forces us to go to the monastery with him. I picked "I'm his child" when Alois asks me who I am hoping for some hilarious reaction, but Jeralt can no sell a joke with the best of them, it seems. Either that, or he actually is his son and Alois was right on the money. Who knows.

I guess Sothis operates as the Navi of this game because she randomly interjects with an observation that our silent hero can't voice himself. Edelgard goes along with Byleth being Jeralt's son, but I mean, I did say it and she's never met me before, so what else is she supposed to think? The post-battle conversation between the three houses people reflects what actually happened in the tutorial battle, so that was neat. They also clearly don't get along very well and they're all desperately trying to recruit Byleth's services, so this should make for a fun slice of epic life.

Wait, I already have to choose? I've barely gotten the chance to know any of them! This is like being on Love Connection with Chuck Woolery back in the day (raise your hand if you expected anyone to make a Love Connection reference in 2019; my mom watched that show all the time when I was a kid) where you have to choose someone to date based on barely any information and most of the time it ends with serious regrets.

Well, let's talk this through then. Edelgard is cute, although she reminds me of the crazy chick from the intro and I don't want anything to do with crazy. It is advertised as a land of ancient history, which sounds cool. Dimitri is clearly the most "normal" dude of the bunch, so he seems like the safest choice, but that could also make him the most boring choice. Claude has the coolest design. I think he has the potential to be the funniest character of the three, but there's also the potential for him to be super annoying if the humor doesn't land. And watch all of this not actually be the moment of final decision as I ponder my options.
