Description Here's my entry to the 's Secret Santa event.

My recepient is:



It took me a while to decide what I'd draw... Of the possible pairings she suggested, I liked more than half of them. But since there's already quite some LeannexNaesala and MatthewxLeila art, I wanted to draw a couple that I really like myself. I hope you don't mind that. :'3
And this picture also prooves that it's not a curse that I keep drawing FE7, because these two, they're from FE8: Sacred Stones. \o/

*cough* Anyways

Joshua and Natasha from the Sacred Stones game (SS in the title can mean Secret Santa and Sacred Stones XD). I think they're a really cute couple. I think it's funny how Joshua tries to win her heart without admitting he's the one who fell first. Josh, you're awesome, but your hat is hard to make look okay and not like some random blob on your head. XD;
I took some minor liberties with Natasha's outfit. :V
And I hope they're recognisable.

I appologise for the lack of background. I had no idea what to do. :V Imagine them where ever you want to. x3

Have a merry Christmas and a very happy new year!

Joshua x Natasha (c) Nintendo/Fire Emblem/Intelligent Systems
Done with Watercolours.
Ps: Natasha's dress is shaded in a very light blue. The Scanner just didn't catch those colours. OTL

Don't worry about commenting on old stuff. I'm pretty happy with this picture as well, so it's nice to hear about it every now and then. Of course I'd like more feedback on newer work, but it's not bad to hear it on old work that I'm pleased with every now and then.

Depends on what kind of collab you were thinking about. I'm kind of busy these days with university work, you see?

Heh, for his A-support with Gerik, methinks he actually lost on purpose on the coin toss the first time This is one of my favorite pairings in Sacred Stones too, well done ^^

Ah, really? x3
I haven't read their support conversation yet, but I'm convinced he did. |3 Joshua would never be able to bring himself to kill such a beautiful/innocenct/harmless lady. :3
Thank you very much!

No problem. I unlocked everything in this game about three years ago, but I still love to replay it every now and then. It was the first Fire Emblem game I ever played, and thanks to it I became a huge fan (I've just finished my first playthrough on Shadow Dragon, by the way)

Oh, waw. :0
Well, it was a fun game. :3 The first one I played was 7, and I've loved it so much I instantly found the others. |D
Oh, nice. I haven't been able to play the DS games, yet...

FoxBluereaver In reply to Koto-wari [2011-11-04 13:35:05 +0000 UTC]

I was glad they made them, that way I was finally able to know Marth's story. Or at least the first part. I'm kinda upset they haven't released Shin Monsho no Nazo outside of Japan, I wanna know the rest of the story.

Koto-wari In reply to FoxBluereaver [2011-11-11 22:13:05 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, me too. I really want to play it. : >
That's indeed sad. : < I think IS should listen to it's worldwide fans. |D

FoxBluereaver In reply to Koto-wari [2011-11-12 15:59:46 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. We fans need to work hard to finally get over the "licenses" obstacle which prevents us from getting to play (or even know) many cool games released only in a single region.

Koto-wari In reply to FoxBluereaver [2011-11-13 12:58:01 +0000 UTC]

Indeed. And then companies are surprised of the amount of piracy on the internet. D:

FoxBluereaver In reply to Koto-wari [2011-11-14 13:58:29 +0000 UTC]

And ironically, the more restrictions they try to put, the more it increases.

Koto-wari In reply to FoxBluereaver [2011-11-14 16:03:57 +0000 UTC]

Exactly. so they'd better listen to their fans and they'll be paid back... 10 times.

Whoaa watercolors! Such a pro. c: I love the texture. <3

Also, what you said about Joshua's hat is so very, very true. XD Stupid hat. You have too many tendencies to be blob-like. D:

Official art that's not excessively tiny is hard to find. OTL

Koto-wari In reply to SAmaryllis [2010-12-29 20:52:09 +0000 UTC]

Why that? :3 Thanks, I do as well. ^^

Indeed, stupid hat, go look more like a hat and less like a blob. ;;

There are few that are big enough... like Joshua's for example. But the majority of the cast has tiny official art.

SAmaryllis In reply to Koto-wari [2010-12-29 21:10:10 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha yeah, some of the royals have nice big art. Plus Saleh and Tethys and the little kids, right? I can't remember too well haha.

You're right, there is very little of this pairing, when it's such a cute pairing. ;A; I really love Natasha, both as a unit and a character. And Joshua...well, all Myrmidons are cool. xD And he's probably the best there is. <3 ...besides Stefan. 8D! (that chapter.... xD You're still stuck on it, huh?)

MERRY CHRISTMAS. <3

Indeed. And it's pretty canon as well. :V
Indeed, she is a great unit and a great character. And to me Joshua is as well. x3 Yes, true.
Yes, I'm still stuck on it... haven't played it for while. >0

YES! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
