Title: Unlikely
Theme: #35, A Bond
Game: Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword
Characters/Pairings: Erk, Guy


It's late, but only one of them is sleeping.

The mage looks down at his unlikely companion and smiles.

It's rather hard to imagine that two people as seemingly different as them could have become friends in the space of one afternoon. But they turned out to have quite a bit in common-they're young, awkward around girls, devoted to their practices...they each have a thorn in their side whom they won't admit to caring about.

Now they are friends. Maybe even best friends.

The swordsman smiles a little in his sleep, his head resting comfortably in Erk's lap. It's odd, that they would be this affectionate with one another when they only just met this afternoon. Then again, bonds are often formed between soldiers while fighting side by side, even if just for one battle.

Guy lays his hand over Erk's, and Erk smiles a little more brightly.

An uptight mage. A naive swordfighter. An unlikely friendship.
