Fire Emblem Seven Minutes in Heaven Lon'qu

       “You won while I was gone right? I guess that would be the reason why your up here.” Edwards smacked his forehead with the palm of his hand. “Sorry about being scatterbrained. All this running back and forth is starting to get to me.” He sighed and gestured to the barrel. “You can go ahead and pick, I'm gonna, go sit or something.”

“You really should let someone take over for a while. I' pretty sure most of the guys would volunteer.” While talking, you reached your hand into the barrel and began to feel around. “You know, I think this might be easier if we just drew names from a helmet.” Because of how may items there were, you couldn't really identify anything. So, you grabbed what you could. “What is this?” You were holding a small pouch with a strange grass like substance inside.

“T-those are mine, they're herbs, for tea.” Lon'qu answered you, stumbling over his words and more than a little nervous. “Would it be okay if I sat this one out? I have somethings I really should go take care of now.”

“Oh no you don't” Edward rushed up and started shoving Lon'qu towards the supply tent. “Quick, to the tent, I'll frag him if I have to.” You ran ahead of Edward and opened the door. Lon'qu had to be pushed inside the tent. “Well that was difficult, I'll be back soon. Or, maybe I'll just leave you two in here indefinitely. Who knows, we'll have to see how I feel when the time comes.” Edward laughed, shut the door, and walked away.

Lon'qu was standing as far away from you as possible, a look a terror on his face. “P-please, stay over there. I really don't want us to be any closer than this. I'm already finding be alone in this dark tent with you difficult enough. So please, please, stay over there.”

“Seriously? So, what would happen if I..” You took a single step towards Lon'qu. “Got a little bit closer to you?” After one more very small step towards him, Lon'qu looked ready to run.

“Please, stay back!” Upon trying to move farther away from you, Lon'qu tripped over his own two feet. Landing him flat on his back with a thud.

“Wow, you really are terrified of girls, aren't you? I'm sorry, I didn't realize how bad your phobia was.” You held out your hand to help him up, surprisingly, he accepted. “I wont mess with you anymore. I'm sorry I scared you.” After he was back on his feet, you walked away and sat down.

“N-no, you shouldn't be sorry. This is my problem, and sooner or later, I have to get over it.” Lon'qu sat with his legs crossed and his head hung low. “I just haven't figured out how to do that exactly. Then again, I try not to think about it, so as to not become ill.”

“I'd be willing to help you. If you wanted me to that is.” With Lon'qu's head still low, you quietly snuck back over to him. “So, what ya say?” Realizing you were almost on top of him, Lon'qu jerked his head up to look at you. “Hi there.” You poked the center of his forehead and smiled wide. “Poke.”

Lon'qu let out a high pitched yell upon seeing you so close to him. “Sneaking up on me is not the way to help me! It's the way to give me a heart attack.” He quickly jumped to his feet and ran straight out of the tent.

“I figured something like this would happen. Oh well, your time was almost up anyway.” Edward laughed. “What did you do, try to kiss him or something?”

“Nope, not even close. You shook your head and joined Edward in laughter. “I touched his forehead, with one finger.”

“He has it pretty bad. I couldn't imagine being afraid of girls. I do feel sorry for him though, it must really stink.” He sighed. “Well, better head back and send someone to find him. He's probably gone and run up in a tree to hide from you.”
