I dunno, I just see some subtext in the Relationship Tile (NOT Barracks - sorry) conversations.
"Asking - Emmeryn
"Why do you wander off like that after battles, fool? You'll get hurt." (free time) "This might sound strange coming from me, but what will you do from here on out?" (dreams) "You look wretchedly happy. Have some of your memories returned?" (happy) "You know, you should let me take the lead in the next fight. It's dangerous out there." (team up)
Replying - Emmeryn
"I usually just let my mind wander. I'd lend you a hand, if you had the sense to ask." (free time) "Me? You should be thinking of yourself. ...Not that it's any concern of mine." (dreams) "I should have SCARRED your face, so your brother would end me good and proper..." (happy) "Well...all right. How am I supposed to say no to you?" (team up)

Replying - Chrom/Lissa/GangrelEdit
"I just...want to...know you better..." (dreams) "No... I can't...remember a thing... I'm sorry" (happy) "I'm just...going for walks. I'm sorry I...worried." (free time) "
Totally. Gangrel would fulfill both the Jessie AND James roles (studly protector who wonders how Emm can even love him after he's been such a bad boy) and Emm is obviously Jessie with a teeny bit of James. D: YEP. D8 (Though I guess Emm is more broken!Jessie with Gangrel as a more hardcore-James not that it would affect how Cori would write him.)
Yeah, but Giovanni still excused her with "oh she was sad because she lost her beloved husband". Though it still didn't stop Jessie's grandparents from cheering when they found out she'd died. Really? Never read NTL all the way through, sorry. XD;; Thanks for telling me. Think the Jessie's-grandparents reaction is indicative, though. :P
*nods* Her WYDS format turned the conflict into huge screaming melodrama but at least it was THERE. EXACTLY. After that? Blahblahblah Stabbing Westward blahblahblah Fu King restaurant blahblahblah French toast!
Oh, I know. I love fluff and slice of life and happyfic, but Cori just took it too far. Oi, YES... @_@
Yeah, some furries ARE batfuck crazy...then again, show me a fandom that DOESN'T have batfuck crazies. I'm sporkin' one, ain't I? XD
Considering canon already had Meowth glomming all over James at one point due to love potion...yeah. Hard not to glean slashy subtext from that scene! XD Poor Cori. Tried so hard to write pure het and wound up with subtext all over the place. We'd probably have femmeslash ships if these fics didn't fail Bechdel test HARD. (And even then, Lickitung is female in these fics, and an entire oneshot is dedicated to its journey back to Jessie, so... OH GAD, BRAIN BLEACH... D8)
