Robin had always thought himself to be better with books than practice. While he certainly comprehended things such as potions, he could never really make one. He normally would be the brains behind an operation, but it did not help that the war was over. Chrom had managed to land the final blow on Grima, sending it into a sleep once more and buying peace for the world. Robin still debated whether he should go through with the act of killing Grima, but that would ensure he would never be able to marry the woman of his dreams.
Cordelia and Robin have been living in bliss for about two years, along with everyone else in the Shepards. Chrom made sure that everyone could come to the garrison every few weeks for old time's sake, maybe even kill a few Risen while they were at it. While many people were not as fit as they used to be, like Gaius putting on a few pounds and Gregor's age catching up to him, they were all in fairly good shape. While Cordelia served as one of Queen Sumia's closest advisors and leader of a new breed of Pegasus Knights, Robin served as the advisor to the Exalt. A lot of the time however ended up babysitting little Lucina.
Cordelia and Robin both enjoyed this task, it was definitely better than Robin's paperwork and advice giving to Chrom, and Cordelia could use a few days off from training the rookies. Both of them could tell that Lucina was more fond of Auntie Dellie, she still did love being read to by Uncle Rob. Robin could tell why he was included with his wife, Robin was the best person to educate his daughter, he wanted someone he knew deeply to keep her safe, and to nudge Robin and Cordelia to have a child. It was finally a time that they could really relax and they didn't need to walk around in armor all of the time. Their days seemed to become more and more routine with each week. They would walk to work, perform their duties, babysit Luci, spend the rest of the day with friends or each other, then relax at home together.
While Robin was certainly not opposed to this style of living, he had a feeling his wife was starting to develop other ideas. Cordelia was having more and more fun with little Luci, often shirking out on work early just to see her sooner. Robin knew it was coming, so he decided to talk to someone who would understand, Lon'qu. Lon'qu and Cherche married during the Valmese War, and had a child about a year or two ago, named Gerome. Lon'qu and Cherche moved back to Ferox once the war ended, but they were luckily in town for the meeting of the Shepards.
He called both him and Chrom to their small two story place, close to Ylisse Castle but not too expensive. Luckily Cordelia was not home, Sumia caught on to this talk got her out. Robin thought about how he should repay her, but he was pretty sure she already knew, she wanted to be the godmother. Robin decided not to dwell on these thoughts as both Chrom and Lon'qu entered the home. Lon'qu looked like he never left the battlefield, sword included, while Chrom looked more casual and laidback, like himself. Robin invited them both in and offered them a drink.
After the three men get settled in front of a fireplace, Robin asked the question. "So, I think Cordelia wants a baby." he said unsure of what else to tell them. Chrom simply let out a laugh and smirked, "You didn't know that? You're supposed to be my great tactician… Look, theres no way to really prepare or be ready for this kinda thing, you just have to accept it." Lon'qu simply let out a humph and a nod, showing his agreement. Robin didn't know what else he could do, so in his mind he began to accept it.
Cordelia returned home a few hours later, noticing the mess from one of Robin's usual gatherings. He saw some leftover candy from Gaius, which got her to begin cleaning. Robin emerged from their room and cleaned as well. Cordelia definitely had some fun with her friends, but she was unaware that Robin was having people over. Cordelia had been debating saying this, but Sumia now managed to convince her. Cordelia walked up to Robin and looked at him close, "I want to have a baby." she said while Robin took his friend's advice, simply nodding.
