Lissa starts hanging out with Gaius and Maribelle starts complaining to Chrom about it because that is her beautiful and delightful best friend and Gaius can't have her. And Chrom's like, "that's my little sister he can't date her that's illegal I think"
Meanwhile Lissa sees Maribelle hanging out with her brother and she's like "no. No, Maribelle can't like Chrom, he's CHROM. No. Not a thing." And Gaius is like "idk I'd smash" and she's like "gross"
So both duos think that bthe other two are secretly dating but really there's mutual pining on both ends.
Maribelle's not going to let some ruffian marry her cute best friend, she called dibs already, and Gaius is like "Chrom hot, gave me the candy his sister gave him"
The first two fankids in our long support log are Cato (son of Aversa) and Tempest (daughter of Frederick)! Written by Ruu and edited by Tana.
C Support
Tempest (neutral): Training’s done, the stew is simmering, we have plenty of firewood. Miranda and Jordan say the med tent is finely stocked, and same to the weapons tent.
Tempest (pleased): *sigh* Seems I finally have a second to myself.
Tempest: Ah, how lovely. A moment for me... Hm.
Tempest (neutral): ...
Tempest: No one will notice if I just... * leaves*
((Scene Transition))
Tempest (pleased): Ah, I thought it would be pretty here. I’m glad I could finally investigate.
Tempest: I know Papa will adore these flowers for sure.
(enter Cato)
Cato (playful): Terrifying Tempest, is that you?
Tempest (neutral): Huh?!
Cato (neutral): Of course it is. Why should I suspect anyone else.
Tempest (stern): How did you find me, Cato?
Cato: I looked around camp everywhere for you. Had a question about cleaning weapons.
Tempest (neutral): You were looking for me? Wait—You were going to actually DO something?
Cato (sleepy): Shocker, I know. My sword’s all scratched up.
Tempest: Well, there should be more cleaning rags and wax in the weapons tent.
Cato (neutral): Checked. Nothing.
Tempest: Hmm. That’s awfully strange. I suppose someone must have finished it off.
Tempest (injured): Well I do know one thing—
Cato: And that is?
Tempest: The innards of this plant here is used to make wax and provides a similar sheen. It would make your sword look better until we can see an armourer.
Cato: You’re a flowers-dork?
Tempest (neutral): I dabble in garden management. I spent many a day in my childhood amongst the forests of Ylisse.
Cato: And I’ve got a rag. Mind if I join you?
Tempest: If you wish.
B Support
Cato: Hey Tempest, thanks for that tip. My sword looks better than ever.
Tempest: Hm, I’m glad.
Cato: What was that flower again?
Tempest: Bathing Beauty.
Cato (happy): Pfft.
Tempest (please): Haha.
Cato (neutral): Hey look at me for a sec.
Tempest (carefree): What—*laugh* Cato why are you so close? Gods, just grab my face why don’t you.
Cato (serious): Your eyes are bloodshot.
Tempest (neutral): ...
Tempest (injured): I suppose I’m just tired.
Cato: Come to think of it, I didn’t see you come back to camp last night after cleaning the sword...
Cato: Tempest, were you out there all night long?
Tempest (stern): I don’t think it’s any of your business, Cato.
Cato: We marched today too!
Tempest: I’ve seen much worse in the future. A simple overnighter will not be the death of me.
Cato: Yeah but over-exhaustion will. You really should sleep.
Tempest (injured): I wish I could, but when there’s jobs to do I can’t sleep. And there is always work.
Cato: Why?
Tempest: Because it’s my nature.
Cato (disgusted): Bad Tempest!
Tempest (neutral): I beg your pardon?
Cato: Just because lazy buggers like me do our jobs horribly doesn’t mean you have to pick up the slack. That’s for the adults to worry about.
Tempest (remorse): But we came back to save our parents—
Cato (neutral): And they gotta put in the work to survive. We both do. And are you good to old Freddybear dead?
Tempest (Injured): Gods, you call him that too?
Cato (serious): Would he be joyous and happy if his daughter died?
Tempest: ...I suppose not.
Cato: Right. Now you’re enrolled in Professor Cato’s Relaxation Routine.
Cato (neutral): Now, what makes you calm?
Tempest (neutral): Doing odd jobs around camp.
Cato (serious): Not that.
Cato (neutral): You like nature right?
Tempest: Yes, I enjoy nature.
Cato (flirty): Then c’mon.
Cato: We’re going to pick flowers or something! Lay in a field or whatever! You’re gonna relax!
Tempest (stern): Cato? Cato! Don’t go into that patch!
A Support
Cato (disgusted): A...A...ACHOO!
Cato: This gods-damned rash is burning my whole body. Fuc—
Tempest (stern): I told you not to go into that bush.
Cato (distressed): I was tryna get you relaxed!
Tempest (neutral): It’s on your face too. Here, Brady said to keep applying the lotion every half hour.
Cato (serious): I can do it myself.
Tempest: You can’t see, now come here.
Tempest (neutral): My, you have very pretty eyes. Crimson, just like the autumn leaves in the north.
Cato (flirty): Sounds like you’ve been spending time with Kimi...
Tempest: ...
Tempest (pleased): There.
Cato (neutral): Why are you sitting back down?
Tempest (neutral): Because I’m going to stay with you.
Cato: You ain’t gonna run off and save the rest of the camp?
Tempest: No.
Tempest: My friend needs my help. A knight pledges herself to the people before the kingdom.
Tempest: A kingdom is nothing without its people.
Cato: ...
Tempest: Do you need anything?
Cato (disgusted): I want this freaking rash to stop flaring up but that’s not happening.
Tempest: Well I suppose we have time to kill then.
Tempest: May I ask questions about you?
Cato (neutral): Shoot.
Tempest: Why do you shy from my touch?
Cato (distressed): Gods.
Tempest: I’m serious. Every time you come close you seem pained. And when I approach you move away like I burnt you.
Tempest (remorse): ...Do I make you uncomfortable?
Cato (serious): *sigh* Gods...
Cato: No Tempest, it’s just some junk from childhood.
Cato: Nothing I want to get into.
Tempest (injured): Ah. My apologies.
Cato (neutral): I’m trying to get better. Hence why I was so touchy with you before. I thought you could help me with it.
Tempest (neutral, blush): Do I ease you?
Cato: You have a presence I enjoy.
Tempest: Thank you.
Cato: I probably should’ve told you.
Tempest (pleased): Perhaps.
Cato: I’ll try to do better. But, as a friend, could you just be a little easier with me?
Tempest: I will be as gentle as buds on a blooming flower.
Cato (happy): Thanks Temmie.
Tempest: You’re quite welcome.
Tempest: Truth be told, this confession makes me want to take your lessons to heart.
Tempest: We could both become better people together.
Cato (neutral): Oh?
Tempest: Yes. So you have to hurry up and get well so I can learn how to relax.
Cato: If it’s the healer’s orders...
S Support
Cato (neutral): Asters, violets, Black-eyed Susans... There’s scorpion grass and baby’s breath... Think that will be okay?
Tempest (neutral): What do you have there?
Cato (happy): Temmie! Hey...
Tempest: What have you behind your back Cato?
Cato (flirty): It’s just a little thank you gift. For taking care of the camp and me.
Tempest: I can go if it’s not ready...
Cato (neutral): Nah, just... Close your eyes? For me?
Tempest: Of course.
Cato: ...
Cato: There.
Cato: Okay, open ‘em.
Tempest (blush, pleased): A flower bouquet! How sweet.
Cato: I grabbed them for you. Astrid gave me some guidance.
Cato: I even gave her a high five after.
Tempest: That’s wonderful progress!
Tempest (neutral): I also stopped training with Kjelle before we both fell over. A vast improvement from working to exhaustion.
Cato: That’s really great Tempest.
Cato: I’m sorta proud of both of us...
Tempest: As am I. We’re both making great improvements in short time.
Tempest: These flowers look wonderful.
Cato (blush): You like ‘em?
Tempest: I adore them. May I?
Cato: *breath in* If I can try something after.
Cato: Thanks, but they’re your flowers.
Tempest: Yet you look lovely with them. Scorpion grass looks wonderful with your shade of hair…
Tempest: Anyways, you wanted to try something?
Cato: Right.
Cato: Close your eyes?
Tempest: All right.
Tempest (injured): …
Cato (eyes closed): ...
Tempest (blush, neutral): Cato, you took my hand and kissed it!
Cato (serious, blush): I tried my damnedest okay...
Tempest: No, no, don’t take it the wrong way...
Tempest: I liked it.
Cato (sleepy, blush): *sigh* Thank Naga.
Cato (neutral, blush): I think you’re my strength Tempest.
Tempest (pleased, blush): I was thinking the same thing.
Tempest: Perhaps we should stick together. I would hate to be without my strength.
Cato (happy, blush): Me too.
Ending
Cato, Feigning Fighter
Tempest, Devoted Darling
While still glared at his Plegian roots, Cato learnt to open himself up to touch even further. Scholars say that there was not a time where he wasn’t holding his beloved Tempest’s hand or by her side. When their army service was complete, they found land that backed onto a large forest, at Tempest’s request. The two lived out the rest of their days happily together.
Little Child
Be not afraid
Though rain pounds harshly against the glass
Like an unwanted stranger, there is no danger
I am here tonight
Little child, be not afraid
Though thunder explodes and lightning flash
Illuminates your tear-stained face
I am here tonight
And someday you'll know
That nature is so
The same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you'll see
In the morning
My family and I are preparing for Hurricane Dorian, so I drew Kellam and Miranda cuddling together while a storm goes on outside
I’m going on vacation today, which means I’ll be away from my computer for a while. Thought I’d show the different color schemes I came up with when helping Ruu and Jay make the final designs for our OCs.
Now you get to see what kinda footwear they have! Insert no FEA characters having feet joke here
I didn’t include Loralei or Blair because Ruu had already designed Loralei fully before I made most of these collections, and because I found the first color scheme I made for Blair was just too perfect for them that my brain said “Why bother?”
Bonus art of Blair with their Wyvern, Honey.
And here’s Almund with his horse, Luthier
If I wasn’t pressed for time, I would have drawn Miranda’s horse, Magnus, with her. He’s a BIG BOI.
an idea of how big Magnus is compared to Miranda. Given how Kellam can be promoted to a great Knight, I imagine Magnus was Kellam’s horse originally, and Miranda inherited her father’s horse when he died.

Next up is our withdrawn prince Quy’ai! As opposed to my other fan kids, the idea of Quy’ai came to me much later (around the beginning of this year). While he’s closed off emotionally I wanted his style to stand out more. I liked the idea of his clothes and hair being a little asymmetrical because I feel like he likes his appearance to stand out. He also has bright red eye makeup on to make his eyes really pop. To be honest, I was having a hard time deciding on what class to make him so I his outfit doesn’t look like the trickster uniform much which I dont really mind. I also pictured him with some type of fur with him so I gave him that accessory above, I think it might be a sort of back sheath where he would carry his father’s sword. Overall, I wanted to him to have an entrancing look to him and look like someone who you would want to know more about. -Mod Jay
Up next is our sultry mage, Simon! Ah yes, him. From the beginning, I wanted him to be sorta two-faced: his sweet, innocent side that he shows to the adults and the provocative, greedy side he shows to the other kids. His looks, particularly his hair, was inspired on Chuuya from bsd with a personal spin to it. I gave him a beauty mark and earring because I felt like it fit him. It took me awhile to decide what class to make him but in the end I made him a mage. I feel like he would use magic to “aid” in his selling and merchandising. I also chose not to give him a hat because I felt like he would really hate something messing up his hair, also he would say something along the lines of “it’s not stylish enough”. All in all, I wanted him to have a mysterious and sort of alluring aura to him and I hope I got that across! -Mod Jay
Next up is our good-hearted prankster, Arti! I knew from the very beginning that I wanted to give Ricken a tall son and worked from there. He is the youngest of my fankids so I really wanted to have a youthful look to him. That’s probably where the idea to give him freckles came from, that I think they just suit him. He’s quite and active kid so I wanted to give him sorta ruffled and messy hair to reflect that. I think it was Arti’s full name, Artemis, that inspired me to make him an archer. Overall, I wanted him to appear peppy and free-spirited, I hope I got that feel across! - Mod Jay
Next is our trusted war monk, Jordan! From the very beginning I said that I wanted to give Vaike a pretty boy son. I wanted him to be handsome but also gentle. Given his skill as a fighter and his kind nature I thought he would work best as a war monk. I imagined he would be one of the oldest kids and have a real talent for healing so that’s why he’s already classed up to a war monk. I really wanted to get across that he was attractive but approachable, he has a big heart and truly cares about everyone. He really is a kind soul. -Mod Jay
Next is Eden! I wanted them to have the same ambiguous look to them that Libra has but instead of leaning feminine I wanted them leaning more on the masculine side. I still wanted them to look sleek and stunning though. They don’t show much emotion so I wanted to keep their face as neutral as possible. They were another one who’s class I was pretty sure on from the beginning and it was fun designing a dark mage outfit that really expressed them. -Mod Jay
Next up is our little dancer, Astrid! I wanted her to be similar to Donnel in terms of looks and personality so I tried to capture his likeness the closest in her more than some of my other fankids. One feature I remember that I always wanted to stick out about her from the beginning was her hair. I’d imagine that if she would wear her hair down it would be a huge, curly mess and frankly she wouldn’t really mind! She’s pretty gentle and youthful and I really wanted to get that across by making her face round while most of the others have sharper features. I knew from the very beginning that I wanted her to be a dancer, when I was developing her it just seemed like a perfect fit and it stuck. Overall, I wanted her to have a kind, bubbly look to her and I think I did a good job in doing it 🌸 -Mod Jay
Next up is Blair! When I was first thinking of their class all I knew is that I didn’t want them to be a magic user like Henry, so I finally settled on making them a wyvern rider. I wanted them to look “scary” and intimidating on the outside because that’s how they want others to see them so I made their armor more spikey and dark. For their hair, I always wanted to give them a “one eye cover” look to sorta imitate Henry’s closed eye look and the end result turned out like this. Also their eye isn’t cover just to look cool (but that’s for another time). In the end, here’s how I envisioned the angry little flyer you all know today! -Mod Jay
Hey everyone! This is Jay. I thought I would share my original drawings of my fankids and talk about them a little, so who better to start with then Tildie!
When Tana first showed us Shi’ori I got inspired and wanted to creat a fankid too and came up with Tildie! I knew right away that I wanted to make her a thief and her design actually came pretty quickly to me. I wanted her to look enchanting and charming but also cunning as well. In the end came up with this look. I also tried my best to match the style of the game portraits as best as I could. -Mod Jay
C support Music: “Such bonds are the true strength of this army.” Lon’qu and Shi’ori are facing each other. Lon’qu (injured): … Shi’ori (neutral): I made tea for you, father. Lon’qu (neutral): Oh, thank you… But why? Shi’ori: You look troubled, so I wanted to try to sooth you. Do you… not l...
It’s father’s day, so I wanted you guys to see at least one of the supports between my fankids and their designated parent.
