I've been playing the game for a while now. Actually, already finished it a few months ago. But only thought of this recently.
Yes, I ship Chrom and Female Avatar. No, I'm not jumping on the bandwagon. Yes, I honestly like this pairing; it makes me melt. No, I wasn't influenced by anybody else.
One day I just wondered how it would be if I could extend the support scenes between Chrom and Female Avatar, so this came out. And I will be using the name "Robin" in this fic.
This will be extremely short, btw.
C-Support
"I don't believe it. The little craven actually ran away! What kind of manners... Sheesh... Oh, well. Perhaps it's only fair. It's not like I think of him as a gentleman, let alone some fancy noble." Robin sighed as Chrom hurriedly left her tent. She was about to forgive him, but her mind returned to the previous conversation they had. "But wait... He just gave me the greatest insult a woman could ever receive! And I bet he would just laugh it off if I told him I never thought of him as a noble! That is NOT fair."
~o~O~o~O~o~O~o~
"Good gods, Chrom, did you do something funny to Robin?" Lissa pulled Chrom over and whispered to him. It was currently evening and the group had just finished their dinner.
"F-funny? Of course not! If I did you wouldn't be talking so casually to me like this." Chrom frowned.
"Really?" Lissa raised an eyebrow. "If you did nothing, then why was Robin giving you a very nasty look during dinner? In fact, she was glaring daggers at you ever since you talked to her this afternoon."
"I swear, Lissa, I did nothing!" Chrom exclaimed.
"Milord, no matter how much you deny it, Robin surely is mad at you for a reason. The whole camp has noticed how her expression changes whenever you are mentioned." Frederick said.
"Whoa, Frederick! Where did you come from?" Lissa jumped in surprise.
"Milady, if you want to talk privately without anybody noticing, it would be best if you actually talked at where nobody could see you. And whispering should be done more quietly than that." Frederick sighed. "Back to the topic at hand. Milord, you should apologize to Robin as soon as possible, as a rift in the relationship between the master tactician and the leader of the army is sure to create problems in the future."
"Look, I'll apologize to her, but it's nothing any of you should be worrying about, alright? Tell that to the rest of the people." Chrom waved them off and started to head towards his tent. "I'll talk to her first thing in the morning."
"But Chrom, if you really want to sincerely apologize, you should probably do it within the day." Lissa suggested. "After all, it's best not to drag this out."
"I'm afraid milady has a point." Frederick nodded beside Lissa.
"..." Chrom stood there, weighing his options and considering the consequences. After a while, he sighed in defeat. "Alright, alright. I'll go find Robin in her tent. But if you find my corpse in a nearby ditch tomorrow morning, it's all your fault."
"Good luck!" Lissa waved as Chrom headed towards Robin's tent. As he was on his way there, she looked at Frederick, worried. "Whatever my idiot brother did, surely Robin wouldn't kill him, right?"
"I sure hope so..." Frederick sighed.
~o~O~o~O~o~O~o~
"*Ahem* Robin? Are you in there?" Chrom stood awkwardly outside Robin's tent. Even if he was the leader of the army and the prince of Ylisse, it wouldn't stop the flight of rumors if ever he was seen standing outside the tent of a woman at night, so he hoped with all his heart that nobody would see him there.
A loud sigh followed by Robin's voice greeted him. "What is it, Chrom?"
"Uh, I'm here to apologize, but, um, could you first let me in?"
"...do whatever you want."
"Right." Chrom wasted no time entering her tent. When he entered, he saw Robin burying her face in an extremely large book. "That's a...uh, large you book you have there. Where did you get it?"
"Found it in the library in the palace." Robin answered curtly.
"Huh, I've never seen that one before."
"Most probably because you aren't a person of intellect and would never enter the library unless needed to."
"Okay, now THAT'S an insult."
"You tell me." Robin shifted her eyes from the book to Chrom then back again.
After a while of awkward silence, though mostly it was on Chrom's part, Chrom sighed. "Look, I didn't come here to start another argument, alright? I came here to apologize."
"As what you told me when you were still outside the tent. I reckon it's about what happened this afternoon?" Robin sighed and closed the book after inserting a bookmark.
"Yes. I apologize for what I said. I didn't mean to insult you in anyway. It's just that..."
"Chrom, stop it, before you say anything that will make the situation even worse." Robin sighed. "You clearly lack the skill in expressing what you want to say without insulting a woman, but I understand where you were getting at."
"So does that mean I'm forgiven?"
"Yes."
"But all those nasty looks you were giving me..."
"I may have forgiven you, but I'm still mad. My pride was hurt, after all. But give me time to think it all through and for my pride to accept it. By tomorrow morning, everything will be back to normal." Robin assured him. "I also apologize for the insult I gave you. For one to lead an entire army, it takes more than just intellect, so ignore what I told you."
"That's a relief." Chrom sighed. "Lissa and Frederick told me people were concerned that I did something to you."
"It was that obvious, huh?" Robin chuckled. "Well, once they see that we're alright tomorrow, they'll just regard it as a minor disagreement or something like that."
"Alright. Now that everything's been cleared up, I should go back as well."
"Ah, wait. I forgot to ask you about our schedule tomorrow." Robin stopped Chrom before he stepped out of the tent.
"Tomorrow? We've already dealt with the brigand problems here, so if there isn't anything to do, we'll go back to Ylisstol. I have to discuss the Plegia problem with Emm."
"Very well. That's it. Have a good night, Chrom."
"Likewise." Chrom smiled at her and was about to head out, but just stood there like a statue after taking a look outside the tent.
"Um, Chrom?"
"Robin, do you mind if I stay for a little while longer?"
"...eh?"
"It's not what you think, I swear!" Chrom hushed her. "There are some people outside and I don't want them to see me leaving your tent at this hour. Think about the rumors that might spread and hurt your name."
"...you're more worried about me?" Robin looked at him in surprise.
"Well, of course. You're a woman, if your name was tainted, wouldn't it be hard for you?"
"Color me surprised, you're actually sweet." Robin chuckled.
"I appreciate your compliment, even if it kind of sounds like another insult." Chrom said despite the light hue of pink on his cheeks.
"Sorry. But wouldn't it be worse if somebody spotted you leaving my tent at an even later time?"
"I'll leave as soon as the coast is clear. The people outside shouldn't take too long... There! They're leaving. I'll be taking my leave, too, in case somebody else comes along. See you tomorrow!"
Robin waved at him as he exited the tent. "See you tomorrow."
B-support will be out soon :D
How was it, though?
