Author's notes: Wow. My series grew so popular so quickly! Thank you SO much for the support. (A rank obtained)
Anyway, this may well be competing for one of the silliest ideas I've ever had for a fanfic.

SPOILER ALERT FOR BIRTHRIGHT PLAYERS!
Please so not continue reading unless you have gotten to chapter 17 of Birthright and/or don't mind massive spoilers.
The ice tribe village was as cold as ever as Corrin struck Flora down with the blunt of his sword.
Flora: Thank you... For stopping me.
Corrin: You have left me no choice, Flora. I have been as merciful as I can be, but I must hear it from you. What is Garon threatening you with?
Flora: I... I can't... Ugh, I guess it's all over. I have nothing left to lose so... Garon said he would destroy my entire village if we didn't co-operate with him.
Corrin: See, that's exactly why we must stand against him and defeat him!
Flora: But you don't understand! Garon said that if I didn't destroy you and Felicia myself: he'd kill everyone in the village and burn it to the ground.
Mozu: (facepalm) Does Garon do this to every village?
Ryoma: Yes.
Flora: (Oblivious to Mozu's comment) So I made the biggest choice of my life! To protect so many at the expense of a few...
Corrin: I know, but who says he will keep his promise to protect your village.
Mozu: (stares at Flora) Idiot...
Flora: I know, but it was either that or risk certain destruction. He gave me 30 seconds to make my decision or die on the spot. Being weak and afraid of death, I shamelessly decided to betray you.
Corrin: None of this is your fault, Flora. I just wish you'd trusted we could help you. There's no reason why you couldn't have double-crossed Garon.
Flora: But, I double-crossed you instead. My flesh and blood as symbol of that. For that, I deserve to die.
Corrin: Flora, please don't be so hard on yourself.
Jakob: Don't be absurd. We have survived, so it is time to regroup.
Felicia: See, sister? It's all forgiven. Please just talk to me...
Flora: Everyone, get back! (setting herself on fire)
The village is ironically comfortable with the new heat source. Burn marks scorch Flora's already black clothes.
Corrin: ACK! What should I do?...
Try to talk her out of it
Let it happen, there is no hope left
Stop her with force
Break out the marshmallows while we still can
Corrin: I guess we did ask for a campfire. (gets a plate of marshmallows out of his pocket)
Felicia: That is NOT funny, Corrin!
Jakob: Nor is it appropriate.
Boy: Oh, look! A plate of marshmallows! Gimme, gimme, gimme.
The boy hastily swipes the marshmallows from Corrin.
Flora: This is... What I deserve. I just... Hope the marshmallows taste good.
Corrin: Wait, that's dangerous!
The boy runs into the fire, using his ice tribe magic to protect himself. He then uses the plate of marshmallows to perform a hearty slam-dunk on Flora's head.
Flora: (dazed) That... Hurt. I guess it's over...
Flora falls unconscious. However, this destroys the willpower she had to continue burning, and the fire quickly grows weaker.
Felicia: Flora! Stay with us. (summons a blizzard)
The now unenchanted fire is quickly put out. Flora is unconscious, but not dead.
Corrin: Seems like we managed to save her.
Jakob: You have the devil's own luck.
Azura: Hey, wait! What's to prevent her from doing this again.
Corrin: Let's see... Oh, maybe we can get Lillith to pretend she's in an afterlife!
Felicia: There is NO way I am putting my sister's life in the hands of your useless improvisation.
Corrin: OK. Do you have any better ideas?
Felicia: …
Corrin: Well, I guess this is our only option.
Lillith: Hello, Corrin. What can I do for you?
Corrin: I need you to make this place seem like an afterlife.
Lillith: Knowing how you got here, I may be able to persuade even you!
Corrin: (frustrated) I guess my idea actually isn't too far from telling the truth.
Flora begins to wake up. The party feign confusion.
Corrin: What... Happened?... I saw a massive explosion coming from Flora, and we all ended up here.
Lillith: Welcome to heaven!
Corrin: (Lillith, is that the best you can do?!) What? She just... Killed us all?
Flora: Oh, Gods, what have I done? Oh, I wish I didn't do that... *sob* WAAH!
Felicia: You shouldn't have let the fire take your body over like that.
Ryoma: I guess that destroys all hope of beating Garon
Flora: No! Why did I have to do that! (She slams her head into the nearest wall)
Lillith: Well, I do have the power to send you back to the realm of the living, but only for a short while.
Flora: We can? Oh, thank you so much! I promise to NEVER set myself on fire like that again.
Setsuna: Um... What's going on here.
Corrin: (Hey, she doesn't even have to feign ineptitude. I'm somewhat envious.)
Jakob: Felicia, we have her word. That won't happen again. I guess Lord Corrin's plan actually worked.
Flora: What? That was a lie? Well, I'm alive... So I guess the ends justify the means. Just don't do it again, or you may set off a *ahem* fiery temper.
Felicia: (pissed) Not. Funny.
Corrin: Careful with the puns, or we may do our best impression of Garon's groans of increasing discomfort.
Setsuna: Ha ha ha. Glad to see everyone's OK.
Felicia: That's just... Ugh. I almost had a heart attack.
Flora: Keyword being almost. I didn't actually die, and you didn't actually have a heart attack.
Ryoma: Although we will make sure Garon is actually overthrown.
Flora joins the party!
Corrin: Well, what actually happened was a little less awesome. The little boy used his ice powers to walk straight through the fire and slam a plate of marshmallows on your head. You were then promptly knocked out. That meant you couldn't use your magic powers, and the fire was extinguished.
Flora: Um... I agree. That is really not awesome. So, I now owe my life to an over-reactive sweet tooth?
Corrin: Yes.
Flora: So, how did they turn out? The marshmallows.
Corrin: Let's find out. I've got them right here.
Flora: Wow, these are... Actually, "to die for" wouldn't be appropriate here, would it.
Corrin: Very not appropriate. I think we should use some wood to make our campfires next time.
Flora: OK, see you in the forest!
Corrin: Hey, wait!
Corrin and Flora obtained support rank C.
And that's that. You could call it a "sweet ending". I will see myself out now.
