Here the female Avatar chapter! I used the avatar of the contest winner, Tifer, from that thing I did way back in Say'ri's chapter. Hopefully I made it easy enough to enjoy without knowing the character.
"Why not just use all three of them?" Robin said to himself as he opened the door to his office. "Sure, they'd all die, but it would be cool as shit...Maybe he didn't really think it through."
He suddenly noticed there was somebody already at his desk.
A girl was cheerily sitting on his side of the desk, humming a tone to herself. She had rusty-red hair, which was braided into a ponytail, and bangs parted to the right side of her face.
The thing about her that stood out to Robin was that she was pretty much wearing the exact same thing he was.
"Oh, hell." He said. "You're not another one, are you?"
The girl looked up. "Oh!' She exclaimed in a perky tone. "Hello! I'm Rufure!"
"Why are you doing at my desk?" Robin asked. "How did you even get in here?"
Rufure shrugged. "I don't know, but I'm pretty sure this is my desk."
"You don't remember how you got in here?" Robin asked. If she was a spy or something, she was doing a really horrible job at it.
"No...I don't…" Her eyes widened. "That's bad, right? How did I…" She paused, blinked, then smiled. "Hello! I'm Rufure!"
"...What?" Robin said, confused. "You...you're still at my desk."
"Huh?" She looked down. "OK!" She stood up, and sat on the other side of the desk. "There you go, Mister…"
"Robin. And I assume you have amnesia?" He said.
"I've been told I have a bit of a short-term memory problem, but I think it's manageable!" She exclaimed.
"You're not from the future, are you?" Robin asked.
"What do you mean?" Rufure asked.
"It's just that, the last time a girl with amnesia dressed as me showed up, she wound up being my daughter from the future." Robin paused. "Although, given your hair color, I might be in a bit of trouble if that's the case."
"You might be my dad?" Rufure asked, her eyes widening. "But my dad's Validar! And you said I was from your future...Are you Validar?!" She pointed an accusing finger at Robin.
"What? No, that's gross!" Robin exclaimed. "You said your father was Validar? That might make us...siblings!"
"Really?!" She exclaimed. "But why can't I remember…" She paused again, blinked, and smiled at Robin. "Hello! I'm Rufure!"
"Man, I thought I had it bad with the memory loss…" Robin said.
"You know about my memory loss?" Rufure asked. "Chrom says it only really applies to short-term stuff. Although I seem to remember everything during battles. I guess it would be bad for the Ylissian Tactician to forget who she was in the middle of a battle!"
"...Did that dasterd seriously go behind my back and hire a new tactician?" Robin muttered.
"Actually, I've always been-"
"Quick sidebar:" Robin interrupted her. "Can we talk about how stupid the work 'dasterd' is? I get that Nintendo might have tried to avoid getting in trouble for language, but you already have plenty of naughty words in the game! If you wanted to make up a new curse word, at least make up something more creative than an existing word with the first letter flipped over!" He took a deep breath and looked at Rufure. "You were saying?"
"...I've always been the Shepherds tactician, since Chrom found me in the middle of the field." Rufure commented.
"...Chrom found me in the middle of a field." Robin said suspiciously. "Tell me, how many wars did you help him fight?"
"Well, I helped him fight Gangrel, who as mean, then Walhart, who was worse, than Grima, which was…complicated." Rufure grimaced.
"Right…" Robin mumbled, thinking to himself. "Rufure, I'm going to ask you a bit of a personal question."
"Neat-o!" She said.
"Have you ever been Grima, the Fell Dragon?" Robin asked cautiously.
"...You won't get mad, will you?" She asked shyly.
"You have, haven't you…" Robin muttered. "...Rufure, can I see your hands?"
"Ok…" She shrugged, extending her unmarked hands.
"So you decided to kill Grima yourself?" Robin asked.
"Yeah…" She said. "Why do you know so much about that?"
"Rufure." Robin said. "I have a theory, and it might sound strange, but just hear me out: I think that we might be the same person, but from different dimensions."
"Oh, that would make sense." Rufure smiled. "After all, my first name is Robin. Rufure's my middle name."
"...What?" Robin asked.
"Yeah, I just go by Rufure because Robin is kind of a stupid name." Rufure admitted.
"...Backhanded insult aside, do you realize how fascinating this is?" Robin asked. "We could compare the subtle to major difference between our different timelines!"
There was a pause.
"...So did you marry Chrom?" Robin asked.
"Why are you assuming I'd marry Chrom?" Rufure asked.
"Well, given how much time I spend with him, and how close we are as friends, I figure that, if I was a girl, I would end up with him."
"No...I have a policy about seeing people naked before marriage." She said.
"What?" Robin asked, confused.
"Anyway, it sounds like you've given this some thought." Rufure commented. "Who did you marry?"
"Lucina." Robin replied.
"Lucina? As in 'Looks-like-a-girl-version-of-her-father' Lucina?" Rufure asked, raising an eyebrow.
"...She looks more like a girl version of Marth…" Robin muttered. "And shut up! Who did you marry?"
"I married my darling husband…" Rufure sighed dreamily. "Henry…" She smiled.
"Henry?!" Robin exclaimed. "As in 'I-never-ate-a-baby-but-ask-me-about-other-small-animals-I've-eaten-raw' Henry?!"
"Yup!" She smiled. "He's such a charmer!"
"A charmer?" Robin questioned. "He's the Ramsay Bolton of the army!"
"I know!" She sighed dreamily. "He's so passionate!"
"How...How are you even able to live with him?!" Robin exclaimed.
"Oh, I have scars, but so does he." Rufure clarified. "Things get a bit wild, if you catch my drift!"
"I didn't even ask you about your sex life!" Robin exclaimed.
"I'm just saying, you can't make a Morgan without drawing a little blood!" She commented.
"I'll admit my daughter can have her...evil moments, but I don't want to think about how she would turn out if she was your daughter!" Robin exclaimed.
"...Morgan's a boy." Rufure said.
"Of course your Morgan is a boy." Robin said. "Why wouldn't he be?"
"Speaking of Morgan, he was with me a while ago." Rufure said. "I wonder where he…" She paused, blinked, and smiled. "Hello! I'm Rufure!"
Robin just stared at her plainly. "...You can just go. I don't want to deal with this."
"Ok!" Rufure exclaimed, skipping out of the office. "Goodbye, Robin!"
"Huh. She remembered my name." Robin muttered to himself. "I wonder if that other Morgan is going to be a problem. I should look into that…"
You can probably guess who I'm doing next.
So, a quick update for those of you who care: Right now, I'm planning on writing a short series of stories called 'Fixer Upper' about Robin and Lucina's relationship. That will certainly be its own independent story, so keep an eye out for that.
For my Smash Brothers sequel to this story, I have a premise that revolves around Robin not being confirmed for the game. If he is, I'll have to reconsider this a bit. I'm once again taking inspiration from the Pete Holmes Show. There is a series of shorts on the show called 'Street Fighter: Red Tape', in which Holmes plays the Street Fighter PR guy. That's the direction I'm going with this. Robin would be the PR guy of the Smash Brothers. I even have a cute little office design for him, which makes me wish I could draw.
Right now, my only problem I have with that is placement. I doubt the Smash Brothers/Fire Emblem crossover section is obscure, but I also think I could get away with putting it in the Smash Brother section. The only Fire Emblem characters that have main roles are Robin and Lucina, and they could stand on their own without knowing where they came from. Since they're Nintendo, technically, I think it will be OK.
Finally, I'm debating whether to turn an upcoming change in this story to its own story. It's going to have a few serious points, given the subject, so I don't know if posting it under this comedic story would be fair. On the other hand, you would need context from this story to understand some of it. I'll post the introducing bits into this story when I get to them and see the reaction.
I'll do some prompts and questions next chapter, so send them if you have them. I do what I like.
