While the difference is funny. Claude lax attitude in this scene is actually huge for his character growth which gets glanced over because subtler compared to the two other lords. Claude pre-timeskip has a really hard time trusting Byleth and really sees him more as a tool to accomplish his goals than a friend. Claude assured of Byleth's return shows a great level of trust and is what really transitions Byleth from "Teach" to "My Friend" .

It just feels like Claude never really connects with the protagonist like Dimitri and Edelgard do, at least imo.

[@lizzyleea]

@@troyii435 it's not that byleth never sees his worst, it's just that byleth doesn't have to handle claude at his worst in the same way he handles the other lords. Also caude does reveal his goals, his secrets, and he starts to regard byleth as a true companion in the progress. He does connect with byleth, but he is capable to stand on his own without byleth. Claude doesn't have to be extremely emotionally dependant on byleth to connect with him.

Okay, but Claude suggesting to commit mass murder just for the sake of helping with digestion might be the more concerning of the two- 😂😂

[@mittemotto2933]

And he said it so casually on top of that xDD

[@AmiTheDreamer]

I think that encounter with Claude is really telling of how much trust he really has in Byleth. Dimitri fell into such a dark place, Edelgard was blinded by her ideals, and Claude was like "well, until Teach gets back, I gotta keep things moving".

After playing GD first BL really hits you like a truck. Claude's reunion had me expecting Dimitri to greet me with open arms. Oh the fool I was.

[@LuvPlays_]

I'M ACTUALLY CHOKING I did GD first and then BL, and I never thought about how different they were until this very video.

[@Nordisk11]

Inside you there are two wolves. One takes you out for a meal during a reunion, the other confesses the war crimes he committed in Iraq and Syria in 2006 during the same reunion.

[@edwardboland8957]

I honestly love this contrast. In Verdant Wind, seeing Claude give you a warm welcome back after you have been unconscious with 5 years is heartwarming after all that happened with Edelgard declaring war, Rhea being defeated and captured, and Garreg Mach being in ruin. Meanwhile, in Azure Moon, seeing the once heroic and well-intentioned Dimitri completely broken and warped into a bloodthirsty monster with a desire for nothing but revenge on Edelgard is heartbreaking.

[@aguywith5names362]

On my first playthrough, I used to joke that Claude is the type of person who would watch somebody crawl out of their grave and greet them with "hey man, you wanna get McDonald's?" And I just witnessed it happen.

[@yoshipichu2656]

You know, I view it more as Dimitri just assuming that of course Byleth died because so many others have, but Claude just believed that Byleth would survive because he knows how strong they are and had faith in them

[@cjstanky]

That and the story makes it very clear that Dimitri is mentally haunted by his dead loved ones (Hamlet style). So when you wake up from your nap he's basically like cool more trauma hallucinations, just stand next to the ghost of my dad, step mom, and friend for the trauma photo

[@YnotTheTony]

Claude: "Phew! I'm stuffed!" Dimitri: "G R R R!"

[@thiagoguilhermedeoliveira4835]

I like them both. Claude is a complete person from beginning to end while Dimitri is about redemption. I can't say nothing about Edelgard because I still did not know how to do her line in story. I always end up with seiros.

Thiago Guilherme de Oliveira Well, what did you think of Edelgard’s route?

[@thiagoguilhermedeoliveira4835]

@@maxrichards3881 She have a good reason. But she pointed he'd axe at the wrong person/dragon. In fact, she chose to allie with the true enemy.

[@maxrichards3881]

Thiago Guilherme de Oliveira Rhea’s admitted that she created the crest-centric aristocracy, which is what Edelgard has a problem with. Also, her cooperation with TWSITD was necessary, as their leader has the empire under his heel. It’s not as obvious and up in your face as other plot points, but going against Thales first would be suicide.

Sure Claude is much more stomachable right after the timeskip but Dimitri's growth as a character just makes me like him so much more. Beforehand he's more edgy than Felix.
