“Aw thanks Kilala, I think you look especially adorable today.” His attention was also drawn to their daughter being held in his wife’s arms. “Hard to believe she’s getting so big already, soon she’ll be crawling all over and sleeping in between the two of us.”

Lucina looked towards the voice of her father and held out her tiny hands, cooing gleefully. 

“Call this a guess but I feel that Lucina will want to sleep on you than between us hehe. She’s grown so attached to you and that makes me a happy mother. I want the same thing for her as you do: to let her grow up with her whole family around her and so far we’ve done well!” She rested her cheek against Chrom’s arm as little Lucina reached out to grab his gloved hand to play with his fingers.

“Hehe...thanks for the complimenting me too, Chrom. You always know how to make me bashful.” Kilala made a futile attempt to hide her reddened face with his arm.

"Chroooom, is it really necessary that we must stay in these...rabbit suits all day today? Can't I just wear my coat instead?"

“Actually this isn’t too bad! I think Lucina did well with the flowers she put on this outfit.”

#;u; likewise! #Im glad you're feeling up to this!

[tactical-lady-of-lightning]

“They do look really nice on you, just dashing. On me...I think she kinda overdid it. I have the need to scratch behind my rabbit ears but i know i’ll mess with the flowers on it. Grr...” Kilala then looked down at the carriage that was between them and smiled at the little child that was dressed in a bunny swaddle blanket, little Lucina was just about to be two years old in the next few weeks.

“Soon our mini-Lucina will join in on these egg hunts with you. For that, I’ll endure dressing up like this if it’ll make our kids smile.”

"Chroooom, is it really necessary that we must stay in these...rabbit suits all day today? Can't I just wear my coat instead?"

“Actually this isn’t too bad! I think Lucina did well with the flowers she put on this outfit.”

“...Well I wouldn’t mind these. These are so much better...💕”

“I’ve seen you crash into training dummies like paper but I’ll always let you crash into me...just don’t break my bones.”

“I promise I won’t Kilala, after all I prefer to wrap you up in my arms as opposed to crashing into you.” he then proceeds to make good on his word and wrap her up in a hug.

Leave it to his wife to come over and lift his spirits. She always knew what to say when he felt discouraged and defeated. He hadn’t considered what that fight had looked like to Kilala and the Shepherds.

Looking over to her, his sullen expression slowly changing into a smile. Locking his fingers with hers, he leans over and kisses her cheek. “Once again, you know just the right thing to say to me. You’ve done so many times in the past and I appreciate that more than words can express my love…” he says as he loving looks into her eyes. 

Despite being married to Chrom and everyone knowing about it, Kilala still felt bashful when they’re sharing their affections for one another like this in the open. She froze up briefly and was about to scold him but that one look in his eyes would wash that thought away. Honestly, she could let her guard down for now.

“That’s just part of my job as your advisor, Chrom. I’m supposed to help you focus on the present and future, not dwell on the past.” Her eyes would soften and close as she used her free hand to pull down on his neck to return his affection by kiss him where it counted, letting her selfishness take over. “But as your wife, I’ll always provide you the comfort and love you need in when you’re feeling so blue. Pardon me if I was so selfish there, Chrom. I can’t help it when you look at me like that...” Kilala smiled back at Chrom and squeezed their linked hands, happy to know that he had bounced back quickly from his troubles when it was bothering him just a few minutes ago. “You’ll be fine, I know you will, Chrom.”

#shepherdofylisse #yay! you did :D

“Well, I have proven myself to be adept at losing fights it seems. I failed to make it into the smash brothers tournament and lost to the restoration lord Ephraim. I wonder what the people of Ylisse and the Shepherds see in me to think that i’m good enough to lead…”

Kilala noticed the slump shoulders of her commander, sensing the damp emotion from him that naturally made her go over to him. She listened in on Chrom’s outspoken thoughts of self-doubt in himself, she knew that losing wasn’t a good feeling but she didn’t think it would hit him this hard. Still she was much more than his friend and she had to find some way to cheer him up. “Now that’s just hogwash, dear...” She spoke out and dusted the bench to sit besides him. “You didn’t see things from our perspective as we marched behind you. That battle was nothing but inspirational, Chrom. We did all we could to support you to the very end and you put up the most breathtaking fight we had ever seen. It got all our bloods pumping and wanting to rally behind you more and more!” She softly placed her hand over the exalt’s. “You said it time and time before, “a leader must never rest, never surrender and never stop learning” so let’s turn this experience into a learning experience. You’ll have more opportunities and these battles are but stepping stones to make you a better person. It’s not a defeat and I don’t want you to see it as such and look, we gained a comrade in prince Ephraim, didn’t we?” She gave Chrom a thumbs up and knowing smile to encourage him.

He could sense the excitement from Kilala as the group approached where Excalibur was to be found. While the trek was fairly lengthy, he knew as Kilala did that Excalibur would be very important to winning the war. 

“Now Kilala, you should know by now that I’m not about to leave your side. I’m coming in with you.” 

Of course she didn’t expect the prince to let her go alone, he stuck with her wherever she went and she didn’t mind it. Kilala knew she’d need his help in case there were obstacles she couldn’t handle herself and besides, Chrom gave her courage.

“I still can’t find a way to sway you to let me go alone huh?” A smirk ever present on her face. “Hehe, okay Chrom, as always I appreciate the help.” She firmly tapped her boot against the cobblestone beneath her, listening in to make sure there was nothing hollow around them. Tucking in her coat around her, the shorter tactician made it inside the abandoned temple fairly easily to feel the sudden humidity inside. Looking around she found a tree branch to makeshift into a torch and cleared up the entrance for Chrom to come through as well.

“The area is cleared to come in, Chrom.” Kilala called out as she inspected the area, noticing the frail foundation and tree branches still holding the temple up, also a hallway that led into darkness that made her wary. She’d pick up a few pebbles and put them in her pockets.

“We’re going down that hallway so stay close to me. Wouldn’t want you to fall into a sudden trap, right? hehe.”

The tome in the stone?(Closed RP w/Shepherdofylisse)

“There it is, the ruins of Barnstokkr.” The light brunette tactician looked up from her map as she pointed towards a large tree within distance of the Shepherds. Kilala rode with Frederick for most of the journey before she dismounted and took the lead alongside Chrom.

“I would have thought there would be bandits surrounding the area, I guess we caught a lucky break, huh Chrom?” She took out a quill and dabbed it in ink to make a quick mark on the map, also making a few quick but poorly drawn additions onto it for future reference.

The first thing she noticed was the lack of an entrance, more like a mostly collapsed entrance that only a few people could possibly squeeze in. She’d take a look at the group and concluded that only one or two people should go in, it was only to retrieve a tome, a powerful tome that only lets gifted magic wielders pick it up, Excalibur.

“Hm, I think...I should go alone. Everyone else should stay on guard on the outside. It doesn’t look like there could be anyone inside this place, I should be fine.” Kilala sounded reassuring to herself, giving the group a thumbs up before turning to Chrom.

“Oh you better believe you’re in for a tickle attack. Prepare yourself!” Arms quickly reached over to wrap around Chrom’s left forearm to stop him from running away.

“Behind the ears and beneath the rib cage. A tactician observes every little detail, from how eyes shift to how hands move.” She’d grin while one of her hands inched towards that spot on his side.

"And who said a certain prince isn't ticklish?"

“Oh boy… I have feeling I’m in for a tickle attack aren’t I?” 

#ayy it's been too long #saw your post last night and stuff c:

[tactical-lady-of-lightning]

“I love you…my hero…night…” She could only murmur the last bit as her eyes closed, a peaceful expression on her face as she started to snooze audibly, nuzzling ever closer to Seth to feel her breath bounce off him.

The sound the kiss made, made her relax, smiling like he had described just now. She’d smile knowing that Seth was here now, that everything would be alright in the world just like he said.

This is what she always wanted, a family with Seth, the man who had swept her off her feet. The man who romanced her long ago and gave her life a new meaning and a new dream. He was her life now, she’d live for him and their child, just like he would live for her from now on.

She’d wrap her around him and held him tight, pressing her cheek against his chest as the sniffling ceased.

“T-Thank you, Seth...I think I’m...” She yawned softly, indicating her sleepiness. “I’m sleepy now...hehe.....hey, Seth?” Kilala lifted her head to look him in the eyes. “I feel a little warmth in my chest...similar to when I had fallen in love with you...like a little spark again...hehe...”

“....” Silence took over briefly as the knight was deep in thought.

‘that must have been the trigger, wasn’’t it? I thought about the child having his appearance...and that was counted for his return...’

Shaking her head out of her trance and nodding, she had to agree with him. Seth made a good point about her subconscious thoughts of him.

“Yes, surely that was the reason. You’re right, so right. Naga said our bonds had to be strong enough and here you are, the answer to everyone’s prayers.” She felt tears forming in her eyes, slowly streaming down her cheeks openly in front of Seth.

“Y-You’re really here....” She sniffled, softly crying. “You’re here for g-good. W-We can be a real family now. I don’t have to be alone anymore...I can really have the happiness everyone else has?”

“Gods i don’t think I’ll ever get used to compliments from you.” The lady tactician only felt her face light up more in bashfulness, making her hide her face into Chrom’s chest, continuously whining quietly.

“...B-But that’s not a bad thing! I-It just means that I’ll almost always react this way as if it were the first time. I’m a hopeless woman, but then again you were pretty hopeless too when you confessed. Having that memory would always make me smile...and also be a fun story to tell the kids.”

*touches cheeks*

{ omg hello friend

Feeling her hands upon his cheeks, a deep feeling of contentedness and happiness filled him. “I do love it when you do that Kilala, I love starting at you too… I hope I can always have these opportunities to do so.”

[tactical-lady-of-lightning]

“Dearest Chrom, you should know I was going to say the same thing. Duties are so stressful...any time I can salvage, I just want to spend them with you alone.” Leaning against the exalt with a smile on her lips, she’d reach for his hand and laced their fingers together, feeling a sense of ease on herself like everything around them ceased to exist.

“I love you, Chrom. You’re the most important thing in my life and my purpose for living each day. Don’t ever forget that.”

“Now I’m all embarrassed that I’ve said all these love sickening lines. Who knew I could be like this!”

[tactical-lady-of-lightning]

“Funny...I have the feeling it’s a boy too...Ahaha, if I’m right, it has to be a mother’s sixth sense or something.” She gazed upon Seth’s jet black hair, reaching up to scratch it softly. “If it’s a boy, I hope it looks like you...Honestly even when you weren’t around, I have been hoping it’s a child that looks like you....funny huh? Even in my sadness and loathing...I still had you in the light.”

“Chrom don’t be silly, we have the time right now and I’m sure there will be more times than you think.” She got up on her toes to try to reach up enough to place a small peck on Chrom’s chin. “Who has the right to interrupt the exalt when he’s trying to find some time to himself and relax....well other than me? Heh...”

Kilala nodded with a gentle smile. “Of course it knows you love it. It’s been responding to you ever since you returned. I’m sure it’s as eager to meet us as we’re eager to meet it.” She felt so endeared from Seth’s affections for the child it made her think of a question to ask the father-to-be.

“I think I can ask you this now that we’re together once again. What do you think the gender of our child will be?”

She felt a little nervous to wrap her arms around Seth, a hand resting on his head to thread through his hair gently.

“O-Of course you can, love. I only ask that you share some of your affection to our baby too. I can tell it’s fast asleep right now, hehe...A little kiss goodnight would be more than enough.”
