The wind blew gently as Robin walked outside to the castle grounds, the night sky gazed down at him as he walked softly into the garden. Robin stopped in his tracks when he was in the middle of the garden and closed his eyes, the reality was just then truly setting in, he really was still alive.

Robin thought about how his first day played out, it started with him breaking into Chroms room, to him being kissed by Lucina, to being chased by Chrom, to meeting up with several women in the army, to finally meeting his female alternate self.

Robin sighed, it would seem that many events still awaited him, and while he wished it wasn't true, it's possible many dangers awaited as well. Robin dismissed the thought and opened his eyes, the garden was quite amazing to look at under the moonlight and it was also the perfect place to just relax.

Robin walked over to a nearby bench that was in the garden and took a seat, the wind continued to blow against his face, continuing pushing his white hair into it. Robin sat alone in silence for several minutes, he was starting to doze off when a voice interrupted him.

"Can't sleep?" Robin looked over to see Chrom looking at him with an apologetic smile, Robin smirked and motioned for Chrom to join him. Chrom nodded before walking over and sitting beside Robin on the bench, for a long while the two sat in silence, eventually Chrom was able to work up the courage to speak "I um...Want to apologize for earlier...I kinda overreacted…"

Robin kept his smirk as he leaned back and closed his eyes "You had your reasons, I would act in a similar manner if I saw my daughter kiss one of the males around here…"

Chrom just nodded his head, but kept his apologetic look "Yeah…"

"But...Chrom….We have to accept that our daughters are not only from the future, but they are also at an age where they can make their own decision. It would be childish if either of us tried to hurt or worse, kill the young man that courts them."

Chrom looked away and sighed, he knew what Robin said was true, he also knew he had indeed acted childish in the whole situation "Yeah...I agree…"

"Of course It would make things easier if said man was to confront us before courting our daughters, especially if say I were to court Lucina or Kjelle, I would most certainly confront you about it before doing so."

Chrom nodded his head, but had to ask the question that was nagging him "I….Agree...But why did Lucina kiss you this morning?"

Robin shrugged before opening his eyes to stare at the sky "Who knows? Perhaps it was instinct after seeing someone who had been gone for so long, perhaps it was because I was like a uncle to her in the future or…" Robin took a deep breath before speaking "...Perhaps she has developed romantic feelings for me…"

Chrom flinched but didn't say anything after Robin had spoke, he hung his head low as he kept thinking about everything, he ran his hand through his hair before sitting up and leaning back just like Robin "...Robin...If their is any man I would love for Lucina to be with...It would be you… It's just...I'm scared of losing her...Like I did Emm…"

Robin nodded before speaking "I understand...But you have to realize that you can't keep a constant watch over her forever...Especially since you still have her present self to watch over, along with Kjelle's baby self."

Chrom nodded before answering "I know...Robin...If you and Lucina ever do become a couple…" Chrom looked over at Robin and smiled "You have my blessing…"

Robin smiled back Chrom "Well...I do admit...I have always wanted to call you father." Chrom playfully punched Robin and the two sat in silence for a while longer. As the night went on, Robin figured this would be the perfect time tl Chrom about his new 'Apprentice'. "...Chrom, there is something I would wish to confirm with you."

Chrom gave a questioning look to Robin but shook his head "What is it?"

Robin took a deep breath and sighed "In my first day back...An unexpected event occurred and because of said event I am now sharing my room with a young woman."

Chrom went wide eyed and coughed into his hand taken back from what Robin said "I...I see...Um Robin I'm sorry I never had to deal with being in a relationship other than marriage outside of war um...I think Gaius can help though."

Robin just shook his head "I don't mean that, I mean I am having to share my room with this female...Because I have taken her in as my apprentice."

Chrom looked at Robin questioningly, he was quite shocked to hear Robin had a apprentice of all things. "A apprentice? I thought you were already training Morgan?"

"In the years I was gone her tactical knowledge is sufficient enough to lead a army, no...I am merely talking about a successor of sorts to me...One that can lend Morgan a hand, as our numbers grow, having more than one tactician is not a bad ideal."

Chrom thought about it for a minute and had to agree with Robin, having more than one mind devise strategies would not be a bad ideal. "Hm...Alright, I presume you are asking if it is alright for you to have one. Well I'm not going to say no, I mean all of your ideals so far have worked out in the end for us."

"Hmph...Well almost...Me being gone for four years was never part of any plan I ever devised…" While Robins tone was jokingly, Chrom could see the pain on Robins face as he had said it, he couldn't imagine what losing four years of your life could do to you.

"Ye-Yeah...That is true…" Chrom and Robin didn't speak another word for quite sometime, finally with the sun creeping up on the horizon Chrom patted Robin's leg "Well my friend, I should go get little Luce before she wakes up, I'll see you later, also I'm going to meet up with your apprentice later if it's alright."

Robin just did a small nod, Chrom nodded back as he pushed himself up and walked towards the castle. Robin stayed on the bench looking up at the now brightening sky, the servants would be coming out soon to work and the shepherds would be gathering to have breakfast together soon.

"I should go get breakfast soon, eating with everybody is something I haven't had the luxury of doing in quite some time."

Robin sighed as he closed his eyes again on the bench, he was honestly too comfortable to get up and it would still be about another hour before they even started cooking breakfast. As Robin stayed on the bench, he heard little footsteps approach from behind, he kept his eyes closed but continued to listen.

Eventually the footsteps stopped right behind him, for a moment there was silence afterwards, but eventually a tiny voice spoke up. "Mister, why are sitting in our garden?"

Robin opened his eyes and turned his head to see that Luce, Lucina's present self, had appeared behind him. She was still in her sleepwear and had a stuffed doll of her father in her hand. Robin gave a heartwarming smile before answering "I'm sorry for my intrusion into your garden milady, I was simply enjoying the beauty of it all."

Luce giggled at being called milady and smiled at him "Um...It's ok, I saw you sitting with daddy from my window...I just didn't know who you were."

"Ah I see, fair enough. I suppose you would be confused at seeing someone as strange as me sitting in your garden, especially since you have no ideal who I am. Although you could have asked your father who I was."

Luce thought for a moment before sticking her tongue out and smiling "Well...I forgot to do that!"

"Of course my apologies." Robin closed his eyes and smiled, he was enjoying this little chat with the small princess.

"Oh it's okay! Daddy says friends are allowed to be here! So If you're daddy's friend, then you're my friend to! Yay! I have a new friend!" The little princess gave a huge smile at the prospect of meeting someone new to call her friend.

"You are quite energetic...Alright, If I'm your friend then I guess that means I get to play with you right?"

The little princess nodded her head up and down while she started to jump up and down at the prospect "Yep! But I can't today, My friend Morgan is playing with me today!"

Robin chuckled at hearing that, of course Morgan, with her energetic nature, would make a play date with little Luce "Ah I see, well I'm glad to hear that Morgan is playing with you, it makes me proud."

Luce gave a curious look at Robin, why would Morgan playing with her make Robin proud? "Mister, why are your proud that I'm playing with my friend Morgan?"

"Well...Morgan is my daughter, so I'm just happy she's making friends of her own."

Luce blinked a couple of times before putting two and two together, if this stranger was Morgan's father then did that mean? "Mister, is your name Robin?"

Robin gave a chuckle before giving a slight nod "Yes, that's correct."

Luce's face lit up and she increased her jumping speed "Oh! I know you! We learned about you in our class, everybody says how awesome you!"

"Well I don't know about that, but I do know that they should be talking about your father more than me, after all is our mighty leader after all."

Luce giggled at her father being called mighty leader, as she was laughing though she suddenly remembered something "Oh! I forgot daddy wanted me to see him this morning! I'm sorry mister Robin, I'll play with you later, bye!"

Luce waved goodbye as she ran towards the castle, Chrom doll in hand. Robin gave a small chuckle as he watched the small girl run away, he wondered if Morgan would be like that whenever she is born...Of course, that required finding her mother first. Robin thought about how his search could take a long time, but he knew when the right person came he would know it. As Robin was lost in thought again, he didn't hear someone come beside him.

"You're too modest." Robin jumped when his thinking was interrupted but eased down when he saw it was Lucina, her future self, beside him.

"Ah...Lucina, please take a seat." Lucina nodded before planting herself beside Robin, Robin could see a small blush teasing her face but he chose to ignore it.

"Th-Thank you...Um, I saw you talking to my younger self, It seems she has already made you her friend."

"Indeed, your younger self is indeed energetic, she reminds me of you in a way." Lucina looked away shyly while Robin gave a small smile "Although, I'm curious, what did you mean I'm too modest?"

"Well it is what it is, you're too modest, with you saying how father should be the only one they should be teaching and not you, I mean I agree father needs to be taught about to the young ones, but you are just as important as him."

Robin shook his head and sighed "No...I'm not even close, I don't run a country like he does, I don't make all kind of important decisions like he does...Besides I'm not a native of here, you know that."

Lucina shook her head at Robin and glared at him "Where you are from doesn't matter! You're a hero to this country! If it wasn't for you we might have, no we wouldn't have ever defeated the Fell Dragon Grima!"

"Your glare is so cold, I might get a chil." Robin gave a dry laugh to his joke as Lucina, who didn't have the greatest sense of humor, immediately dropped it in fear of actually making Robin sick "Haha...I'm only kidding, my strategies did play a big part yes, but it was our combined efforts that was able to stop Grima."

Lucina was about to snap back but knew Robins words were true, she lowered her head and looked at the ground, leave it to Robin to leave her speechless "Yes that's true...But you still played a big part in everything! You did...sacrifice yourself…"

"Although I did come back, even if it was four years later…Guess I owe you four birthday presents huh?" Robin again gave a dry laugh to his joke, Lucina on the other hand balled up her fist and hit Robin as hard as she could "Ow...Sorry, I was never good at jokes…"

Lucina glared at Robin again this time with tears in her eyes "You were being selfish in doing that! Did you even think about Morgan!? For four years she had no parents, and the bad thing is she could have been with her mother and not even know it because of your stupid sacrifice!"

Robin closed his eyes and took a deep sigh "It should be noted...That it was either that, or everyone dying...I would rather die than you all."

Lucina continued to glare at Robin but lowered it when Robin kept his eyes close "I'm sure there was another way, if only you would have thought it more! You are a damn tactician!"

"Ha...True, but sometimes the best strategies, are the ones that hurt the most." Robin opened his eyes and placed a hand on Lucina "I know that me leaving hurt...But please try to remember I did it out of love for everyone...Even you."

Lucina grew a crimson red and turned away when Robin spoke "Yeah whatever…"

Robin chuckled "Just remember, I speak the truth." Robin pushed himself off the bench and turned to walk to the castle but spoke once more before he left "Oh, I should tell you Chrom gave me his blessing if I wish to court you, figure you would want to know."

Lucina choked on her own spit when Robin said that and immediately turned to look at him, as he walked away she placed her hands over her chest and let a small smile cross her face.
