Okay, I've been hanging onto this one for a while. Suggested by Vanderspiegel: shot continuations of other chapters as a sort of special treat. If you've skipped some chapters, than you're going to have to skip some of these continuations or you'll have absolutely no context.

These will mostly be in the form of short epilogues, not scenes like I usually do.


Statseer

Grima arose despite the best efforts of the Shepherds and Robin decimating both Validar and Aversa in single combat. However, when the tactician realized that the Fell Dragon had only forty magic the final fight ended up being rather trivial. Rally Spectrum, Ward Staff buffs, and the two Falchions made quick work of the so-called god.

After the war Robin settled contentedly into his role as chief military advisor of Ylisse, but was known to frequently go on missions, even relatively unimportant ones, so his ability to see statistics could be put to some use as the ability was rather useless outside of combat.

Robin of the Pact

Historians were long baffled by the sudden appearance of the famous tactician "Robin" in the records of Ylissian history. The girl sprang from nowhere and after the death of her husband, the Exalt Chrom, she vanished from records entirely.

It wasn't until the finding of an old journal hidden away in a forgotten chest along with a few other belongings of Exalt Chrom that the truth was revealed. Robin was a pact demon, though it would seem a rather benevolent one. Nowadays historians theorize that this knowledge was a secret between Robin and the Exalt, and the blanket memory modifications Robin enacted upon her summoning were never lifted. It is additionally theorized that the death of her summoner was the reason for Robin's sudden disappearance, as demonic entities are held in this world by their contracts and when the Exalt died the contract probably died with him.

Risen

Many know the immortal Robin Lowell today as the host of his webshows "Strategy, Plans, and Bullshit" where he picks apart tactics used in popular media, and "Knowing is Half the Battle" where he explains strategies for different board and video games including Chess, Shogi, Starcraft III, and Fire Emblem: the Flickering Dark.

However, the his history extends far into the past, including into the time period the later Fire Emblem are based on. He was instrumental in the development of those games as he lived through many of the events himself. When interviewed, the man revealed lead us through a magical retelling of his life, starting with the events we would recognize as the story of Fire Emblem Awakening, his friendship with Exalt Chrom, his happy marriage to Lissandra Lowell, and so much more.

Mirroreye

Robin's ability to read minds proved incredibly useful through her entire life. Aside from being a fantastic diplomat, Robin Lowell also had a reputation as an effective counselor, and her marriage was notable for having very few issues (in no small part due to her husband being unable to hide anything from her, but also from Robin being very open and honest herself).

Queen Robin was responsible in large part for the reform of Gangrel some years after the defeat of Grima, as well as the softening in attitude Walhart underwent after the Valmese/Archanean war.

Neither of her children inherited her strange mirrored eyes or ability to read minds. Some historians theorize Robin's powers were obtained through a ritual performed before her memory was erased.

Stringcutter

The thing most people tend to remember about Robin Vastatio is the weapon he was associated with: Stringcutter. The weapon has had many wielders over the generations, but none aside from the original wielder have been able to use it's potential better than Robin.

The sacrifice of Robin to defeat Grima marked the first, and only, time Stringcutter showed parasitic and soul-binding abilities. It latched onto Robin's soul and dragged it back to his body, giving up its own form for the duration of Robin's life.

Robin's death also marked the first time this weapon passed on to next of kin rather than teleporting away to a new owner. Morgan did not bring out any new potential in the weapon, but is still notable for being one of the rare users of the Halberd form.

Succubus

While Exalt Emmeryn was the one to allowed exiled races back into Ylisse, it was Exalt Chrom and Queen Robin that made them publicly accepted. Succubi were and still are one of the most powerful and dangerous races on Earth, but Queen Robin stepping into the public eye greatly softened the Ylissian citizens' attitudes towards the race that the Church of Naga espoused for the longest time as the single greatest threat to human kind.

Queen Robin was also the first succubus willing to allow serious study by a scientist. In this case it was the Shepherds' head mage, Miriel, who conducted a thorough study of the queen's abilities which is still the basis of our understanding today.

The queen's extreme self-repression, which is to say she hid as much of her body as possible and rarely spoke, was emulated by her daughters and granddaughters for generations as a way to stop their passive attraction abilities from affecting others. Nowadays this is thought to be a bit extreme, but at the time this sort of restriction was necessary when the majority of the general public was still wary of succubi.

Despite her self-repression in public, evidence suggests the queen was much more relaxed in private and made much more liberal use of certain powers like energy gifting or forcing relaxation, which is possibly the reason for King Chrom's rare hyperactive or dazed episodes when said powers were overused to counteract exhaustion and stress respectively.

ROBIN

The ROBIN and MORGAN models were important milestones in the development of automaton technology. Where Nohrian Stoneborn creation has only be recently rediscovered (and the lastest known use of the technology is in the creation of "Revenant" and "Entombed" Risen), Hoshidan automatons developed slowly over the course of Ylisse's history, and are notable for being the first country to develop automatons that had a semblance of sentience (ROBIN being the first model that can be solidly argued to have such a thing).

ROBIN is also notable for being the guardian and tactical advisor to the Exalted bloodline for many years after his creation and many years after the death of both his creator and King Chrom. ROBIN served the next exalt, Lucina the Younger, just as faithfully as he had her predecessor. MORGAN, on the other hand, travelled the world, and is thought to have held an entire encyclopedia worth of information in her magic databanks (the change to computer memory came in the modern era, hundreds of years after MORGAN's creation).

Both ROBIN and MORGAN would eventually be destroyed in battle defending Ylisse during the attempted conquest of Archanea by the Clarlup Empire. Their remains are currently undergoing study and reconstruction by scientists.

Hairweaver

Robin was known her entire life for her flirtatious behaviour but also her shrewd mind. Together with Princess Lissandra she threw lavish parties both within Ylisse and between countries; this served the twofold purpose of easing tensions but also allowing Robin, who never drank, to extract information from the drunk guests.

Out of the royal couple, Robin was easily the more suited for court intrigue and the general runnings of state. Her pleasant demeanor, persistence, and sharp mind were perfect traits for a ruler, and while Chrom was the face of the country Robin was thought to have managed the majority of the internal workings of the economy, lawmaking, and military affairs.

Both Robin and Chrom were known to be in a constant cycle of forcing the other to relax through their entire lives, as they were both prone to overworking themselves.

Timesnap

Robin survived the death of Grima, though his stopwatch no longer functioned. He passed the artifact on to Morgan when she was born, at which point the stopwatch starting working again.

Anna proposed not long after his revival and the two settled down on the Ylisse/Plegia border, owning a small shop and taking out the bandits that frequently bothered the border pass. This small shop, quite a distance from surrounding villages, eventually bloomed into a village owned mostly by the couple. They owned the shops, the inn, and the bar, as well as being the leaders of the town.

Anna's more unscrupulous ways were reformed during this expansion period, but her shrewd business sense was instrumental in the financial boom their village underwent over the next few decades. Any of her sisters passing through would comment on how unusually the prices for food were… and would almost instantly shout in indignation at the outrageous fee for the inn. Anna's running theory served her well: merchants have some money to spend, villagers don't. So keep the food and ale cheap but the inn expensive.

Robin was never quite as skilled at business as his wife, but his skill with tactics was useful in the training of the village guard and planning the layout of the buildings. When bandits became unruly along the trade route, he would join Gregor, Sully, and Henry in exterminating them.

Impulse

Robin never stopped shaping the world around her. The sheer force of the Ylissian queen's personality lead to massive changes in the country's policies, and thorough dismembering of the racist and old-fashioned council that surrounded the royal family for centuries before. Ylisse once again became a military powerhouse under her leadership, though in a much less aggressive fashion than that of Exalt Lucius only a twenty years beforehand.

Over the next few decades Ylisse became unofficial peacekeepers for the world around them, and their firm policy of unshifting borders lead to a gradual decrease in expansionism in the years to follow and altogether less violent interactions between kingdoms as inter-kingdom competition shifted from war to economics and politics. Robin, with her force of personality, dominated the new landscape just as easily as the war-ridden one that came before.

Exalted

Chaos followed the assassination attempt on Emmeryn's life, especially so for Robin who suddenly had a fifteen year old daughter to deal with. The ensuing war to put Gangrel back on the Plegian throne was a brutal one thanks to Ylisse's pathetically small and under-trained military, and Ferox's reinforcements were key to ending Plegia's leader: a lady by name Aversa.

With Gangrel back on the throne and quelling the religious uprising, Ylisse and Plegia lapsed into uneasy peace. The people on both sides were livid, calling for blood, but Emmeryn and Gangrel refused to give in and ruin what little stability the two kingdoms had. Robin, for his part, spent most of his time with his daughter undoing the brainwashing Validar had done.

Conveniently, Morgan "forgot" who her mother was up until after her father got married, upon which point she revealed she'd known who her mother was all along and hadn't revealed it so her father wouldn't feel pressured. Robin was not amused, but reluctantly admitted it was probably for the best. Tharja was just disappointed Morgan didn't say anything so she and Robin could have gotten married sooner.

Manakete

Robin, despite her transformation abilities, was not a true manakete, and after the death of Grima she lost her powers and began aging normally. Only a few remnants of her former abilities remained, including the four extra eyes and her oddly young appearance lasting well into her sixties before she finally starting showing signs of age.

Losing her dragon form ruined Robin's combat potential. She was still a fantastic tactician, but not having her primary means of fighting made it much more dangerous for her to stand near the front lines. Thankfully there were no wars during her and Chrom's rule, but it took several years for her to be deemed competent enough with a sword to join the Shepherds on an occasional bandit elimination.

As a ruler Robin was known most for her patronage of the arts, especially plays and dances. Olivia even taught Robin to dance and act so the queen could partake in the shows she so loved to see.

Supermagic

It's hard to say if Robin was disappointed or not when the second war broke out. On one had it was brutal and horrible, but on the other hand it gave him an opportunity to use his skills to their fullest once more.

Several battles were trivialized by Robin's destructive power as he could eliminate entire squads from a distance. Robin was also responsible for the damage caused to the Mila tree's lower branches during the Shepherds' assault to take it from Cervantes.

Despite Chrom's best efforts, the tactician's hobbies remained limited to reading, gaming with Virion, and babysitting the Shepherds' various children. It would not be until well after Grima's fall that Robin got married himself, and it took a few years more for his wife, Cherche, to get him to stop planning for another war and actually enjoy his life.

Autistic

Thankfully, with Emmeryn remaining Exalt for a good long while, Robin seldom had to deal with going to council after the end of the Grima crisis. Her military expertise was unneeded for the rest of her life, and she settled into being a professional chess player while also teaching tactics in the Ylissian military for future generations.

Robin continued with Miriel's programs over the course of her life, attempting to reduce the severity of her natural reactions. None were eliminated completely, but repeated exposure (as unpleasant as it was) helped to make some of her more drastic aversions manageable as her body adapted itself.

It was hard to say what her reaction to neither of her children sharing her quirks. She claimed to be happy that they wouldn't have to deal with the various sensitivities she did, but Chrom always suspected his wife wished one of her children could relate to her situation.

Necromancer

Robin's ability to control Risen proved instrumental in the defeat of Grima. However it was not without issue; Grima's own control was significantly stronger than his and as such the tactician found his own influence limited to his immediate area, and had to stay with his army at all times.

Emmeryn didn't fight in the wars, though she relaxed her policies on demobilization to allow for a stronger force to fight Walhart and later Grima. Robin was known to send gifts back to her from the few stops he had as the Shepherds travelled Valm, such as some choice teas from Chon'sin and some Valmese jewelry.

Having such a dangerous man as their king did not sit well with the people of Ylisse, and long after Grima's defeat they were wary of Robin (in no small part due to the undead army that still dwelled in the palace's lower levels under Robin's control).

With Morgan not having any control over Risen like her father, Robin had to put down his army near the end of his life.

Giantess

After the defeat of Grima Robin searches Archanea and Valm for other giants, but she finds none. For whatever reason she is the last of her kind or, if Miriel is correct, she was infused with magic as in infant to change her to resemble the long-dead species.

Morgan and Lucina don't quite have their mother's size, and Miriel identifies them as half-giants. When fully grown they stand at about nine feet tall, which is admittedly still small compared to their mother's fourteen.

Being a giant did not affect Robin too much over the course of her life, despite not being able to fit into most buildings. Anything she wished to could be brought to the palace just as easily, though she never did find someone she could spar with without accidentally breaking some bones.

Ghost

Legends tell of a tactician's ghost that dwelled in the Exalted family line, lending advice to the youth of the family and changing hosts to the next generation when his current host had children of their own. There are also tales of other wars where historians assume the ghost took part, as tales of a young prince or princess sporting spectral garb to deflect arrows or attaining sudden competence with combat magic are not infrequent in Ylissian history.

There is much speculation as to if the ghost is still present in the world after the abolishment of the Exalted monarchy. Some historians suggest that the ghost died with his last host, and others claim that it found a new line of rulers to inhabit. Others still suggest that the ghost lives in the world with us now, perhaps still guiding young souls to be the best they can, noble birth or otherwise. The lack of outright wars in this era perhaps makes his military skills unnecessary.

Replicate

Robin continued to use her powers through her entire life to bug her husband (who took several years to propose, and never quite got over his self-repression), but found more practical use for her clones in attending multiple meetings at once and acting as a quick message system on the battlefield.

Grima, sharing her abilities, was a tremendous hassle to fight as the Fell Dragon had specialized each of her clones to do something different like heal, use magic, or sword fight. In fact there are still theories today that one clone, separated from the rest, still survives to this day planning her return.

Lucina, unlike Morgan, did not inherit her mother's powers. The tactician was always worried about Lucina not feeling like her true daughter, but the girl was perfectly content with not having the mental confusion her brother did early in life when managing several bodies at once.

Grimleal

Chrom and Robin worked together to dismember the Grimleal base of power in Plegia, and managed to stop the rise of Grima all-together. After the Valmese war the two would visit each others' country frequently, and Robin would be an unofficial member of the Shepherds.

The tactician would remain a faithful courtier to Gangrel for his entire life, and would be rewarded with control over the Plegian/Ylissian border after the death of the former governor. He married a Feroxi soldier by the name of Narna he met during the valmese war.

The Shepherds would be the ones to find Morgan randomly strolling around Ylisse just after the conclusion of the Valmese war. The girl thought she was being kidnapped, and it took a solid ten minutes to stop her shooting lightning at them.

Anomaly

Much debate is had as to the nature and fate of Robin. Historians are unsure as to if she was a statue brought to life, a lady with an unfortunate curse, or an otherwise unknown species. After the end of Prince Chrom's life Robin disappeared entirely. Some claim she went back to Plegia, some claim she died, some claim that her powers turned against her and that she was captured and transported somewhere unknown.

There is little else to be said of this individual. Her life, whatever it may have been, is shrouded in mystery.

Taguel

Robin never married, much to the chagrin of Panne who would have liked more taguel to repopulate their species rather than just her own children. Robin spent lots of time after the death of Grima continuing to play with the Shepherds' children, and eventually settled into helping Libra at his orphanage.

The tactician did adopt twins from the orphanage, named Morgan and Marc, whom he taught his skills and both would become master tacticians in their own right later in their lives. Robin would also teach classes to all the children in the orphanage on math and sports.

Panne never did convince him to care about tradition, and Libra suffered similarly in trying to get Robin to respect religion whatsoever.

Grima

To say Grima was ever "redeemed" is questionable, but there was certainly an improvement in her disposition thanks to her time spent with the Shepherds. She vanished after the death of her counterpart though, never to be heard of again.

Years later, a boy by the name of Morgan (who would go by the name Marc up until the very end of his time with the group) would join the hero Lyndis in her quest to reach Caelin, and subsequently join her in her adventures. The boy, a master tactician and possessing incredible dark magic powers, was known to be secretive about his past but would mention draconic heritage to Lyndis and had an odd purple mark on the back of his neck which leads historians to believe he was related to Grima.

Vampire

After the integration of Robin into the Lowell family line, there was a consistent streak of Vampirism in the family. Many of the Exalts from then on were dhampirs (half human, half vampire), and while there was only one or two full-blooded vampires at a time (as turning into a vampire requires a very specific ritual or the breeding of two full-blooded vampires) usually a child of a vampire (and therefore a dhampir already) would volunteer to undergo the transformation to continue on their parent's legacy.

Lissa would never become a vampire, and neither would Owain (despite how enamored he was with the idea, he ultimately decided the blood thirst and light-aversion was too high a price). It was Morgan who would undergo the transformation when she became an adult and carry on her father's legacy.

Robin would also never quite become comfortable with feeding on his wife, despite her insistence that she was fine with it.

Captain

Robin and her crew helped the Shepherds all throughout the East Archanea/Plegia war, as well as the Archanea/Valm war that followed. They provided valuable coastal defence against pirates, and were instrumental in repelling the Valmese vanguard ships.

Her ship would eventually be destroyed in the battle of Port Noct by a Risen-infested Plegian galleon. She and her crew would join the Shepherds on land for the remainder of the battle against Grima, and were known to wheel around Communication as a form of field artillery.

The captain refused to allow her pistol to be mass produced, precisely because of its power. It would be a few centuries before the secrets of black powder were rediscovered.

Spy

Robin's skills as a spy would come in useful during the Valmese war. Alongside Gaius he infiltrated Walhart's main fortress, and relayed intell to Chrom and the Shepherds via Henry's crows. The two would go on to assassinate Excellus halfway through the war and convert Priam to their cause.

Robin would lose an arm to Walhart during the last stages of the war when the conqueror finally discovered who it was betraying him. Robin would receive a prosthetic with an attachable crossbow to allow him to continue fighting.

The spy and Sumia would eventually marry after the death of Grima, being the last of the Shepherds to tie the knot. Cynthia was relieved to not have to hide who her father was anymore.

Houndmaster

As sudden as their engagement was, Chrom and Robin's relationship was well-received. Emmeryn would gently poke fun at her brother for doing all of this under her nose and after only a few months of knowing Robin, but was supportive of their decision.

Robin's blindness would prove problematic later in the Ylisse/Plegia war as her inability to sense flying units made combat with enemy fliers very dangerous for her. She relegated herself to fort-busting, where the hallways were too tight for fliers of any sort and her sweeping strikes with her spiked shields could be most useful.

Eda and Lula would pass away during the two-year break between the Plegian and Valmese wars, not from injuries but from old age as Robin assumed they'd been by her side since she was young. The dogs did, however, sire their successors at the start of that two year period. Sola and Umbra would serve Robin just as faithfully as their parents had.

Arranged Marriage

It took a long time for Robin to become comfortable around Emmeryn, and even longer for his mindset to finally change. Even with a changed mindset, Robin was known his entire life for being exceedingly slow to trust.

With his wife, Emmeryn, the two would make great progress towards peace between Plegia and Ylisse, and successfully prevented another war between the two countries. Their efforts at diplomacy would sadly fail against Valm, and Robin and his retainers would join the Shepherds in their assault against the conqueror.

There were many questions as to how succession should work upon the discovery of Morgan. It was eventually agreed that the girl would be considered a distant relative for the sake of succession, which Morgan was fine with as she had no interest in ruling.

Angel

Robin would unlock a few more of her angelic abilities over the course of the wars, including the ability to temporarily enchant her weapon. She took great joy in smiting her opponents with a flaming Levin Sword.

Robin eventually discovered other ways to relieve her stress aside from adult activities, but would prefer them for a good long while. Her husband happily indulged her whims, but would jokingly (and sometimes not so jokingly) complain of the exhaustion he suffered due to Robin's stamina.

Morgan, upon discovering the story of his parent's courtship from a sneaky Gaius, thought the whole story was hilarious. Gaius got a full month of cleaning out the stables for revealing such a thing.

Gambler

Robin and Nowi Tealeaf would buy a house in Ylisstol after the war, though it was seldom used for the first several years due to Nowi wanting to travel the world looking for other Manaketes. After their return, Robin saved up enough money to open his casino and became fabulously rich. For her part, Nowi got into acting and starred in several prominent plays of the time.

The tactician, aside from owning his casino, also helped the Exalt in politics, as his ability to enforce deals, even if he didn't use it, was often more than enough to keep people in line.

After his death Morgan would take over the casino, and with her sharp business sense would expand it into a full-on resort. Nowi continued her acting career long after her husband and eventually her daughter passed away, and is still known to frequent Ylisstol in modern times.

Lamia

Robin served during both wars of her time, and settled in Ylisstol after the death of Grima. She and her new husband, Stahl, worked in the Ylissian military for most of their lives. They enjoyed being sent away from home as it meant a perfect excuse to try the cuisine of other places.

Stahl never developed a talent for tactics despite Robin's best efforts to teach him. The lamia fared much better in picking up her husband's trade and became a halfway decent apothecary over the course of her life.

As per the strange sexual dimorphism of Lamias Morgan did not inherit his mother's traits and was fully human. He was, however, proficient with a harpoon.

Consistent Amnesia

Robin's memory improved drastically over the next few years. It was still a long time, a full decade in fact, before his memory could be said to be back to the human norm. Miriel patiently documented and aided the process all the way to completion.

Despite his memory issues, Robin served a function during the Plegian war. He aided Philia and the other generals in planning troop movements, and his tactician genius was enough that a thorough summary at the start of the day was enough for him to be able to put his skills to use.

During the Valmese war Robin served with the Shepherds on the frontlines. His memory had improved enough to remember important details of the day before, like troop movements, which made him exponentially better at developing tactics on the fly.

After the death of Grima, Robin would stay at Miriel's house so that their studies into his memory loss could continue without taking up space in the castle. Their marriage, despite being a decade in the making when it was announced, surprised no one.

Alien

Understanding empathy was not easy for Robin. To her empathy seemed to go against logic, but she strived to learn it anyways. As was fitting for her highly adaptive mentality, she grasped the idea within a few months of study and practice.

Knowing her former mindset, Chrom was wary of his tactician for a good long while. He was not so quick to believe her sociopathic tendencies would just disappear… and he was right. While Robin learned empathy, she was still an incredibly selfish being, and it would take years for her to be truly able to be called pleasant, or anything resembling kind by anyone but Chrom (whom she still maintained a facade of sensual friendliness towards right up until it became genuine).

It would eventually be Emmeryn who would convince Chrom, after years of distrust, that Robin had finally changed and that her politeness was genuine.

Bow Knight

Virion and Robin's marriage was surprisingly solid despite Robin's abrasive personality. The archer took few of his husband's complaints seriously, and it was for the best as Robin complained about many things.

The tactician was not, however, all just complaints. He helped draft plans to restore Rosanne after the Valmese war, and eventually learned to tone down his complaints into persistent but low-key snark.

Virion would have to snap Robin out of obsessions at various points in his life. The tactician's single-minded focus was his best asset and his worst fault, and his husband would come to know that all too well.

Savepoint

Robin never revealed what she'd done to Chrom, or anyone for that matter. Even though she would later marry the prince, the secret still died with her.

Chrom would, however, learn of Robin's marking and returning ability. He was both amused and slightly intimidated at the extent of his wife's borderline fanatical devotion… especially when he learned that this devotion extended to before they were married.

Robin would never do something so drastic again in her life, and in her later years she would wonder if she imagined the entire episode.

Old

Robin never returned after giving himself up to kill Grima. Chrom was not surprised. The man was old, and his body and mind had already been taking a sharp turn for the worse near the end of the war.

With no family to speak of and owing allegiance at one point to both Plegia and Ylisse a memorial was built along their shared border for the tactician. At some point in the next ten years a scholar would write a biography of the man's life.

Goddess of Strategy

Robin, despite her status being common knowledge among the Shepherds, feigned to be a noble to the rest of the world for several decades. She would marry Ricken a few years after the Valmese war, despite Ricken being very unsure that it was okay to marry a literal goddess, and for the duration of the man's life Robin would play the part of a noble and help rebuild Ricken's family from their state of poverty. She practiced her abilities in quiet, using willing volunteers (her husband and some of the Shepherds) as test subjects for her various powers such as armor summoning and enchanting, ability enhancing, energy boosting, and disciple mind control.

She also practiced use of her various combat spells, including ones exceeding the power of mortal weapons, spells more powerful than Meteor or Naglfar. There would be more than one crater littering the countryside during those years.

Robin would eventually develop a religion of her own, though not until a few generations after the death of the Shepherds. Being an actual goddess unlike her mother Robin would keep the soul of her husband beside her after his death, turning him into an archangel.

Sadistic

Historians know very little of Robin's life beyond what was recorded by others of his time, such as his efforts fighting Plegia and Valm. The man kept no journal, and considering what little information historians have of his life outside of war, maybe that's for the best.

Multiple Personality Disorder

As the war grew longer Cessabit found herself in control of their collective body more and more often. It got to the point that she was spending several days in a row in control while the other three kept out of the way to let the tactician do her work. Any free time she did have she gave to the others.

The end of the war was a relief for Cessabit, as it was for everyone, but the yellow-eyed personality skipped her turns for a couple months to rest. Not having a house though, Robin (as the collective personalities call themself) exchanges time between the castle and visiting Vaike during the two years of peace that follow, and Timor eventually mustered enough courage to allow Libidine to make an advance.

In the future, Robin and Vaike marry. Being married to essentially four people at once is just as chaotic for Vaike as it sounds.

Respawn

Robin continuously resets his life over and over and over. Sometimes out of boredom, sometime because he is nearly dead from old age. He doesn't want to die, he refuses to. Eventually he discovers a way to make himself immortal, and time can finally moves forward again.

He never does manage to beat Henry in straight combat though, and Robin never completes the challenge he was given to learn everything about everyone.


This was challenging. More so than I expected.


Half-beastdragonsoul2013: Yep, subtlety was not what I was going for.

omegazeroinfi: I honestly had no idea what I was gonna do going into that chapter. I happened to be listening to "Determination" by djsmell at the time, and I just ran with the idea. Also yes, I know the requests represent interest. It's just… well, a bunch of drunk guys calling for more beer also shows interest. If I'm desperate for attention, sure, that's fine, but what I enjoy is conversation. I do realize I'm being a bit petty here though, apologies for that.

bLuewErewOlf25: Yep, no subtlety here. *Bad time intensifies*

I'll add that idea to the list, but please understand your suggestion is very comical and as such really doesn't fit the tone of this collection whatsoever. Also, incorporating music into a written medium is hard as hell.

FleetwoodPink2Zeppelin: :D

Guest on a quest: To be honest that's what I was gonna go with too, but I struggled to find anything interesting to do with that which wasn't just "oh, Robin wears down his enemy and wins eventually."

Ren4gade: Just vibes? I wasn't that subtle! I'm not sure if this is the megalomaniac checkoff or not, but I think I'll count it as such. Writing evil characters is hard.

whitefri2z: Yes, Henry is the judge. I didn't actually realize I killed Asgore first, good point! It seemed more fitting though. I always thought Sully would be Undyne, but Priam works too!

Don't get me wrong, I'd love full stories of some of these too, but I don't have that much time in my life to write a full story of everything I think of. If you find someone willing, or want to yourself, be more than welcome to steal these ideas for a full story. The point of this collection is to inspire after all.

CorEagle: The Undertale vibes were very intentional.

Henry is a bit OOC here I admit, he's a bit less of a jokester. That's partially my incompetence at writing jokes, but also because this is the "let's get dangerous" moment for him when the mask finally comes off. Not sure that justifies his OOC for my part, but I'm glad you enjoyed it either way.

Ah, I assumed the chair thing was a misspell. Good to know.

Variable Robin added to the list, but that'll be hard to incorporate. Still, I like the idea!

No, thank you for reviewing.

frozenJester: Yeah, Henry is top three for me in this game up there with Owain and Noire. He really is great! I remember smiling like a madman the first time I got him. Really, who else could be Sans in Awakening? Henry makes puns, always smiles, and is wicked dangerous (his supports mention he's one of the most powerful mages in Plegia!).

I'll put it on the list I suppose, but that's trait that probably won't be very overt if/when I use it.
