I joked about Megaman Legends 3 not happening in my Roy and Lilina oneshot fic and here I am taking an eternity to update this. I apologise to those who followed this story for the long wait, but Fates of S.T.E.A.M. and making sure it gets updated on time is my top priority. And I have other projects I want to work on. And I'm sort of stuck for ideas for this. I SHAKE MY FIST AT YOU WRITER'S BLOCK!
Morgan was already wondering troughing the Valm library. Her parents were out attending business with Say'ri while she was alone to explore. Right now, she was reading a book about the Saint King Alm.
She then heard a depressed sigh.
She looked over her shoulder to see Inigo at another desk. "Oh, hi Inigo!" The boy didn't answer. "Rejected again, huh?"
"Yet again. I don't understand, Morgan. What is it that I lack?"
The girl thought for a moment. "Hmm. Good question. You actively try to catch woman yet Owain, father and grandpa all got girlfriends when they weren't actively hunting for them."
That comment was a blow to Inigo's pride. "Forget I asked."
"Maybe it's because you keep flirting with every girl in sight without considering what kind of girl you want specifically."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Have you ever wondered, who your ideal girl might be?"
Inigo thought for a moment. "Well, you see I…maybe someone with…uh…"
"You don't even know, who you want to be with?"
"Well, I…I just thought I would rather not end up growing old and dying alone."
"Nobody want's that." Morgan said. "A lonely life would suck. Gosh, now I'm really confused. Why would anyone ever live alone? What's wrong with being with you anyway? Is it your posture? The way you talk? I just don't get it."
"Don't worry about me, Morgan."
"I can't!" Morgan pouted. "It's confusing me and nagging me in the back of the head! I need to find the answer! It's my duty as a tactician to know these things! This calls for an experiment!"
Inigo looked up at her determined gaze. "What are you thinking?"
"Come on! We're going on a date together!"
"How will that hel-wait, hold on what?"
"If I go out with you and you hit on me the way you do other girls, and I'll know what you're doing wrong! It's as simple as that!"
"So basically, I'm your test subject?"
"Come, on! If we isolate the problem, I can help you get a girl with ease! Besides, this is part of my plan, so when you screw up you won't have to worry about me slapping you! Or throwing hot water at you! Or chasing you around with a heavy pan! Or-
"Who told you about all that!?"
"Ya hear stories when with the Future Deliverance. Anyway, It's worth a shot, right?"
Inigo sighed. "Well, I suppose I don't have much to lose."
"Good! Now, no half measures, I want the whole, flirty, Inigo experience!"
Inigo simply watched as the peppy girl skipped out of the room. How this was going to end was beyond him.
Outside of the capital, Valm was filled with people. Markets were all over the square filled with things go purchase and restaurants to eat at. The possibilities seemed endless.
"So, where do you wanna start?" Morgan asked. "Oh, let's go find some cute accessories! I bet I can find something cute for mother to buy! Oh, wait, maybe I can find her a dress that doesn't make my eyes bleed! Or maybe some more cloths for father, he needs more. Oh, oh! What about-
"Er, you might want to slow down Morgan."
"Oh, right. Heh, heh, Sorry, I've never seen a market this big! It's so exiting!"
Inigo thought for a moment. "Hmm. Now that you mention it, you weren't with us when we defeated Walheart."
"Nope. Were the streets like this then too?"
"Yes, very much so."
"Cool! In that case, where do you think we should start?"
"I suppose we could look at the accessories." Inigo said.
They walked together down the market. Inigo didn't know where this was going, but he had a feeling it might not be so bad in the end.
The next day Inigo heard a knock on the door to his room and opened it to see, Morgan.
"Hey, Inigo! I finished analyzing everything from our date yesterday!"
"And?"
"I still don't get it!" Morgan said handing a paper to him. He read all the notes she wrote. Supper nice. Knows good stores and restaurants. Pleasant to talk to. Easy on the eyes. Plenty of complements. Not stingey. Strong enough to fight in war. "Look at those traits! Who doesn't want a guy like that!"
"Well so much for that." Inigo sighed.
"Hmmm…maybe I need more research? Can we do this again sometime?"
"I suppose." Inigo replied. "Er, just one thing. You haven't told your parents about this, have you?"
"No. Why, should we keep it a secret?"
"If you don't mind. Even if it's only a "experiment" I don't think they'd be please with me dating their daughter."
"You worry to much." Morgan shrugged. "But, sure. I can keep a secret."
"Thank you." Inigo smiled. "You're a good friend Morgan."
"Aww! Thanks Inigo!"
"And that's how it went." Riam said. He was inside the room that was given to Robin and Lucina, who were sitting on the bed.
"I see. Thank you, Riam." Robin said. "Morgan has strange ways of helping people. Good thing you saw them leave for their "experiment."
"It seemed rude to follow them. But I felt I needed to make sure everything went alright. I should note, Morgan plans to go out with Inigo again. She said she wanted to get more information but…"
"Do you think she has feelings for him?" Lucina asked.
"Possibly." Robin replied. "Sorry to put this on your lap, Riam, but let us know if this develops further."
"Of course."
