AN: Here's to my super fail at incorporating humor into my writing OTL I can't write humor to save my life TT_TT imsosorry


There was a huge ruckus in the men's barracks and it drew the attention of Chrom, Lissa, and the female Shepherds.

"Get it! Get it!"

"GAHHHH! IT WENT THERE!"

"YOU get it, Vaike!"

"Hell no!"

Chrom knocked on the door but there was no answer, only loud crashes. With a sigh, Chrom entered the men's barracks and saw that the men were gathered on one bed, staring around fearfully.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"It's a bug! A HUGE BUG!" Vaike cried.

"A bug? There's no way that there-GAH!"

Chrom jumped up on a nearby chair when a large bug the size of his palm ran in between his legs.

"I told you it was huge!"

"Kellan! Kill it!" Chrom commanded.

"Are you kidding me? I'm not going near that thing!"

"AHHHH! IT'S FLYING!"

Indeed, the bug had unveiled its wings and it was flying towards Virion. The other men abandoned Virion to his doom and they crowded around Chrom, who pushed them away to find their own refuge.

Just as the bug was about to land on Virion's face, a javelin came flying from out of thin air and it pierced the bug, pinning it to the wall.

"Damn bug. No one touches my man."

Sully wiped her hands on her pants and she left without a word. The men stared at each other, dumbfounded that Sully had saved them from a minion of hell. Virion snapped out of his shock and, with admiration sparkling in his eyes, he ran after Sully.

"Sully, my love~ I must thank you for rescuing me~"

The men all breathed a sigh of relief. Vaike cleared his throat and shrugged his shoulders.

"We were...just testing them to see who was loyal enough to come to our rescue."

The others agreed and they exchanged glances; what happened in the men's barracks stayed in the men's barracks.

Chrom told the men to clean up the barracks and he promised that he would send someone to discard the bug from the barrack. He left the barracks and straightened his clothes, hoping that no one other than Sully had seen or heard the ruckus they had caused. He heard a snicker and he stopped in his tracks when he saw Ashe grinning at him.

"I was...they...we were...what happened was…"

Ashe burst out laughing and Chrom's face burned with embarrassment as she patted his shoulder and walked away, still laughing. He covered his face with his hands and wondered if he would ever regain his pride.
