sharing sandwiches
Chrom inspires loyalty in Frederick the way nothing else ever has, but when she's sobbing into the chutney, he's admittedly a bit divided.

the long and wooing road
1. She's definitely less jealous of Sumia after she finds out that Chrom doesn't give foot rubs.

2. When she cries out Chrom's name, he keeps telling her he doesn't mind, that he understands--but it sours their night quickly.

3. His unit returns in shambles from the ambush, but when she practically shoves Chrom aside to get to him, it's a personal victory all the same.

4. They take a break from being in their respective wedding parties to dance; as he holds her he thinks she might cry, but all she does is sigh momentously and lay her head on his shoulder: "I hope ours is less stuffy."

5. It's frustrating to speak to the grown Severa and think that, years after the fact, she still hasn't gotten over a schoolgirl crush, and that it hurts her family; but she finds a hand-written love note on her pillow and the warmth that curls her toes tells her she won't let her daughter down twice.

Chrom's questionable recruitment posters
He finds the last of them stashed under her cot (with little hearts drawn on them) and tries not to feel achingly disappointed.

Virion/Cherche

Cravats on wyverns
The only thing that saved him from being served as dinner was that Minerva honestly seemed to like her little 'outfit'.

Frederick/Miriel

Hormones, as demonstrated by Chrom
"Hormonal imbalance can have nefarious effects upon the body," Miriel told him, and suddenly the subtle courtship between his charge and their new tactician bothered Frederick so much more.

Experiment
"I had hypothesized it would be rendered both water- and rust-proof," Miriel said by way of apology, as Frederick stared at the smouldering remains of his armour.

Physical contact
She was cold by nature, but he'd taught her to act on her instincts...and she was a very quick study.

No-Touch Duo

Tickling
When she really wanted him to vacate fast, she pulled out the long-handled feather duster.

Sleeping habits
A month after their marriage they were still in seperate bedchambers; six months after, separate beds; it wasn't until a year had passed that they pushed them together and it only got easier from there.

Defiance
Bringing the Emperor's rappigs home is where she draws the line.
