Author's note: Reason why I'm writing this is because I didn't like the way IS wrote the support conversation. (Like many other supports...) This here is my own attempt at writing a revised version of Hana's support with the avatar, so please R&R if there's anything I can improve on to make it better/longer. Story will be written directly like the support levels. Hope this story will make Hana more appealing to others.

Update: Thanks Cyberchao X for pointing out the flaw in chapter one! Just added some two or three new lines here to make the support flow better. Hope this makes it better!

Update 2: A huge, HUGE thanks to PersonaUserOrpheus3245 for their constructive critique in the reviews. I've always wondered what was wrong that made it less appealing for me when I read my writing, now I know. I've completely re-written my 'weak' attempt of their support, and I have to say, it's a whole lot better compared to before. Again, huge thank you for your insight!

Hana: Hah! Tah! Eiya!

Corrin: ….

Hana: Yah! Hah!

Corrin: Hm….

Hana: …...Lord Corrin, I can't concentrate with you staring at me. Is there something you need?

Corrin: Huh? Oh, sorry. I couldn't help but be mesmerized by your sword training. It's unorthodox compared to the others, but it shows promising strength. I try to imagine the enemy against your swings, and I can tell they'd lose in about three or four swings. My little sister has quite the strong retainer.

Hana: Thanks for the recognition, Lord Corrin.

Corrin: Who taught you how to fight like that?

Hana: My father. He was King Sumeragi's retainer so he was the one who taught me the basics. The rest, I picked up from others.

Corrin: I see...

Hana: ….

Corrin: ...

Hana: …...

Corrin:...

Hana: Is that all you came to ask, milord?

Corrin: Not really. I came to you because I want to spar with you. I wish to get a first look at Hoshidan style combat and tactics, plus I want to understand how my comrades fight so that I can help out with the war meets and councils. Just studying tactic books and strategy papers isn't enough.

Hana: ...Okay. I've got a spare training sword. Here.

Corrin: Thank you, Miss Hana.

Hana: You ready? Then let's do this.

Corrin: Hold, Miss Hana. Before we start, I have another question for you.

Hana:...Yes?

Corrin: Is your father's name Kyosuke?

Hana: ...Yes, why do you ask?

Corrin: I'm sorry, but I can't say.

Hana: What? Why not? I answered your question, why won't you answer mine?

Corrin: Well since you want to know, then try to land a hit on me.

Hana: Did you even listen to what I said?

Corrin: I did, but I came to you because I wanted to train with you. If you want to know, then land a hit on me.

Hana: ...Fine then. Draw!

Corrin: En guarde!

*scene change*

Corrin: *huff* *huff* Elfire! *huff* You're quick!

Hana: *huff* And you've got a strong defense! *huff* But I won't lose! Take this!

*wooden sword crack*

Corrin: Urgh! And I won't surrender! Hiya!

*wooden sword crack*

Hana: Gh! You're going down, with all my strength!

*wooden sword crack*

Corrin: Damn!

Hana: Phew! That's my win! Now, you will tell me why you asked about my father!

Corrin: First, sheath that training sword of yours. You're not giving me a chance to explain myself if you point that thing at my neck. Besides, I already learned how much damage you can do with just a training sword. Gods know what you might do to me if you smack me at the neck.

Hana: ...So? Why did you ask about my father's name?

Corrin: I wanted to confirm that you're Kyosuke's daughter. Your father played with me when I was little, both in Shirasagi and in Cheve. Ever since my memories have been re-awakened, I've been recalling more and more fragments. I remember how he often mentioned about his family, that he has a daughter that is close to my age. He said that I had the same bombardment of energy as she does.

Hana: Oh... Did he now?...Well, now you know.

Corrin: ...

Hana: ...

Corrin: There's one more thing I should mention, Miss Hana.

Hana: *sigh* ...What is it?

Corrin: ... No, never mind. It's still too early for you to know.

Hana: What? What aren't you telling me now, Lord Corrin?

Corrin: As I said, it's still too early for you to know. I will tell you, but not right now; it's too soon. In any case, I thank you for the spar, Miss Hana, I have learned quite much from you. If it's not too much of a bother, may I continue to train with you in the near future?

Hana: ...

Corrin: Miss Hana?

Hana: Alright. But at least call me by name. It feels awkward when my superior officer is formal with me. (I get that enough from Sakura.)

Corrin: As you wish, Hana.

Hana: Close enough.
