I'm the Homekeeper

by DrabblingMyHeart

(Drabbles In OC Perspective: Set in Fates) In this log, it lists down the many misadventures of the army that has banded together to stop the evil that terrorizes the world. Meanwhile, said-army is terrorizing the astral plane they call home and each other, leaving one very annoyed person (and a few others) left to clean up the mess.

9. Childish Arguments

I do do not own Fire Emblem, but I do own the OC.

This was written for my own fluffy enjoyment and affection for a certain brown-haired swordsman.

"Hinata, I swear if you don't stop smiling, I'll freaking punch you in the face," I quietly hissed.

"Ha ha, very funny. Can't I just watch you, Mama-chan?"

As we were marching on our route, we happened to stumble upon an orphanage. Crumbling walls that slowly chipped away by erosion and explosions, rooms where sunlight was a rare treat, and among other things that were best left unsaid, the look on Corrin's face told everyone that they were going to stay there for a while. That, of course, leads me to my current situation.

"Miss Sara, can you please fix my hair again?"

"Up! Up! Up!"

"Can we play outside? Can we? Please?"

"One at a time, and be quiet, children. Otherwise, you'll wake up the baby," I gestured to the little bundle in my arms. "Babies like sleep. If you wake them up, they'll start crying. You don't want to make the baby cry, do you?"

"Okay," they answered in unison. In that moment, they walked up to the baby and hugged it, saying their apologies before waiting patiently. After dealing with the toddlers and finding a moment of peace, I found a smiling Hinata watching me from the door.

"That was adorable."

"Shut up."

"Those kids really like you. I'm pretty sure that they'll start crying when we move out again."

"Hinata, I swear that I'll smack you so hard that even Garon will cringe."

"If I ever have kids one day, I'll be sure to ask for Sara Maver."

"You're pushing it if you think I'm going to babysit your kids."

"Eh? Babysit? Sure, thanks for the offer! Sure, you might your own family to deal with, but knowing you, they'll be in good hands- Sara? Um, why are you holding that bamboo pole? Okay, I know that sounded wrong, but please don't-! Ack-!"

Corrin peeked into the room to see a battered Hinata on the floor and me sitting on the chair. The cooing baby one arm and the bamboo pole in the other made the silver-haired noble raise an eyebrow at me, but she didn't question anything.
