Total Opposites

[Author's Notes: This is my first time writing these characters so if I make them seem OOC then let me know (I'm not doing purposely, I just wanted to make sure I'm doing them right).]

After the Shepards found out about Lucina, she had told them that the other kids were somewhere around Ylisse. So since they had to wait for Plegia to get everything ready for them to sail to Valm, they went searching for them while they waited. After about a week of traveling and asking the townspeople if they heard of any suspicious activity they had found some of the children. That's when they heard that slavers were spotted around the northern Ylisse area. After they rescued the girl, she joined them and Chrom found out in minor annoyance that it was Henry and Tharja's daughter, Noire. That's when they got word from a plegian messenger that the ships were ready, so Robin had no time to talk to her besides a passing greeting since they went straight to the docks. So they were getting the ship loaded with their supplies and after spending almost the whole day loading the ship, Robin took some time to go introduce himself to Noire.

"From what Chrom told me is that she's Tharja's daughter from the future…" He sighed, "I hope she's not like her…" Robin shook his head, "Other's would be glad that a girl has an obsession with them but not when she watches you sleep or is still into you even when she's supposed to be married to someone else in the future…" Robin was so lost in thought that he bumped into Lucina. "Oh, my apologies Lucina, I was just on my way to see Noire."

Lucina smiles, "It's no problem at all Robin." She looked at him in worriment, "Is something wrong? You seemed to be lost in thought."

Robin sighs, "Well like I said I'm going to meet Noire who happens to be Tharja's daughter and you know about her little obsession with me."

"Yes, she was like that in my timeline as well. I'm guessing that you're worried that Noire will be like that as well?"

Robin laughs, "I know, stupid right?"

Lucina chuckles, "Not at all, but you don't need to worry…sort of."

Robin sighes "Of course, there has to be a sort of. I don't like the sound of that…"

"Well Noire is really fragile and she's scares easily…but she has a talisman that makes her become violent when she's stressed, frustrated or angry. Also, she always admired you in my timeline because of Tharja's obsession…"

Robin was nervous and confused, "Um, why would Tharja's obsession have anything to do with Noire's admiration?"

"Noire thought you were great because of Tharja. Tharja made you visit her and Henry almost every day and Noire got attached to you because you would always convince her mother to get rid of her curses."

"Oh...great…so my fears were true?"

"Well she's not obsessed with you, she was just always grateful that you were able to convince her mother to get rid of her curses."

"Wouldn't Henry have been jealous?"

Lucina chuckles, "Well from what Noire told me, she said that Henry promised Tharja to protect you before her and he didn't mind her obsession with you, he actually found it funny..."

Robin didn't know whether or not to be surprised or disgusted, "Those two really creep me out…"

"I can see why. Anyway, Noire's really nice so don't worry about her…issues."

"Thanks Lucina, well I'll be on my way then" Robin walks away.

Noire was sitting on one of the barrels on the dock. She just got done doing her task of moving crates. She looks at herself and sighs, "Curse my frail body…how can I be helpful to the others when I don't even have the strength to help out…"

"Hello Noire, are you okay? You look really tired."

Noire jumps back in fear, "Eek! R-Robin!?"

"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't mean to frighten you, I was just seeing if you were alright."

"I-It's okay; I was just surprised that's all. I'm alright though; I was just taking a break because I finished moving the crates…"

"Well you don't need to take a break since we have nothing else going on for today, so just relax or take a nap."

Noire was shocked, "What do you mean we have nothing else to do? I started moving the crates in the morning, it's already late!?"

"She's not bad at all; she's like the total opposite of Tharja." Robin smiles, "Well it is almost dinner time. Anyways, you should go take a nap since you look tired. I'll wake you up when it's close to dinner."

"I-I guess I should. But, what about everyone else? I can't take a nap while everyone else is working!"

Robin frowns, "Noire, it's not going to help anyone when you push yourself too hard. How can you fight when you're over exhausted before the battle? So don't worry about it, the sleeping quarters should be ready on our ship so you can sleep in there."

"I guess so…thank you for looking out for me."

Robin smiles, "Don't worry about it; I just want you to be healthy."

Noire smiles, "Okay…thank you, Robin."

"Haha, no problem. Now I have to go see Chrom to prepare for our voyage tomorrow. So see you later, Noire." Robin proceeds to the captain quarters.

Noire went to the sleeping quarters in the ship in a happier mood, "I knew it! He's just the same like he was in my timeline!"

Two hours later

Lucina walks into the ship's sleeping quarters where Noire was sleeping to wake her up since Robin was going to be late for dinner and he asked Lucina to wake her for him. She then wals up to the bed Noire was sleeping on and shook her gently, "Wake up Noire, it's time for dinner."

Noire shot up, "WHAT FOOLISH MORTAL DARES WAKE ME UP DURING MY DREAM OF ROB…" She noticed Lucina, "Lucina!? W-What are you doing here!?"

Since there was a lot of noise from all the Shepards in the mess area no one but Lucina heard her outburst. So she kept calm since she was used to this side of her, "Robin wanted me to wake you up since he was going to be late for dinner."

"O-Oh, I'm sorry for wasting your time…but shouldn't you be with them?"

"No, not at all, I was just doing Robin a favor and our war meeting is about done. Robin and Father are just looking over the battle plans." Lucina coughs nervously, "You were having a dream about Robin?"

Noire gasps finally realizing that her dark side announced her dreaming of Robin, "Please don't tell Robin! He'll think I'm creepy like my mother…"

Lucina smiles, "Don't worry I won't say anything but when did you fall in love with Robin?"

"Well, as you probably know, I had admiration for Robin when I was young in our timeline but now that we're around the same age and he's just like he was in our timeline, I dreamt about being with him. But, you said not to alter the future…"

"Didn't you know that he never married?"

"He didn't!? I just thought that his wife would hate my mother because of her obsession so she wouldn't come with him."

"Well now that you don't have to worry about that, why don't you just tell him then?"

"W-Well, I'm too afraid to tell him. I'm not attractive or strong like you or the other women…"

"If that's true, wouldn't he have proposed to any of the other women? I've heard that Olivia and Cordelia were in love with him once but he denied them."

Noire was surprised, "But they're beautiful!" She then looks down in sorrow and whispers, "That just means I have no chance then…"

"You'll never know if you have a chance with him if you never tell him. Maybe you should keep talking to him instead of doubting yourself."

"M-Maybe you're right." She heard the other Shepards in the ship's mess area, "Shouldn't we go to dinner now before Sumia starts worrying about you?

"Yes we should, I know how worrying mother can be."

They both got up and start walking to the ship's mess area

"Thank you Lucina for helping with my feelings about Robin."

Lucina smiles, "Of course, even though I don't really know anything about romance other than the stories from my mother."

Robin made it to dinner after a while and saw Noire and Lucina talking to each other, everyone else was either sleeping or in town. "Hello, Lucina and Noire."

"Good evening, Robin"

"H-Hello, Robin"

Robin sits down in front of them, "I'm sorry for not being able to wake you up for dinner, Noire."

"Oh, that's okay, Lucina told me that you were busy…thank the gods that you didn't wake me up…"

Lucina got up, "My apologies the both of you but I must be going. I want to ask father if he would like to do some training before bed…" She walked away.

Robin looks at Noire, "How are you doing? Did the nap help out at all?"

"Yes, thank you for suggesting it to me."

Robin laughs, "No problem, I was just worried about your health." Robin then looked off to the side and thought about the war against Valm and how many soldiers that they will have to fight. He knew that it was going to be a long war and a lot of people will die but he thanked the gods that he just had to look over the Shepards. That's when he looked at Noire and remembered what Lucina said about her frailness. From what he saw is that Lucina was right, just from sitting across from him she was shivering and even though she took a nap, she still looked dead tired. Not only that, she always looked down on herself and worried about everyone but herself. That's when Robin realized that he wanted to protect her, "Noire, what if you paired up with me during this war?"

Noire looks at him in surprise and hope, "R-Really!? Y-You don't think I would slow you down?"

Robin smiles, "Of course not, Chrom told me that you were fighting off slavers while he and some of the Shepards went to go rescue you."

Noire frowns more, "Oh, that wasn't me or you can say not my actual self…it's complicated…"

"Oh, do you mean your dark side?"

"Oh, he already knows about it. Yeah, when I get angry, stressed, or frustrated that side of me comes out."

Robin laughs, "Well, if you don't need my help…"

"No! I want to be paired with you; even though I can use my dark side to fight, I can easily get killed by any attack cause of my frailness…"

"You know I can die just as easily as you, but I'll make sure you're safe."

"T-Thank you, Robin…"

Robin smiles, "Of course. She really is the total opposite of Tharja besides her dark side that Lucina told me about; I think she's a great person so far."

[End Note: So I had Noire admire Robin in her timeline to give an actual reason for her to fall for him 'from the start' like she says in her S-support for Robin in the game.]
