Even though Lon'qu was ahead of him, Isaac could see his words weren't getting through. Unlike Chrom, tackling Lon'qu directly would get killed. Especially with the man in his current state. It was time for Isaac switch tactics.

He still followed after the swordsman, but kept a distance and stayed in the shadows. Finally Lon'qu had settled in a spot against a tree. Isaac watched carefully, and from what he could observe Lon'qu was disturbed by something. But jumping out and offering help would make him run off again.

So Isaac stayed hidden in the shadow of another tree, and kept watch.

Whatever Isaac was saying fall on deaf ears, after all the only thing Lon'qu is hearing is the beating of his own heart--fast, rapid and wild. The tremor in his chest is making him less rational than his usual self.

Hurried steps to duck under the forest trees in order to find a good spot so he can just sit down with his own thoughts. Finally, he found a good space that the sky could be seen if he sat down.

Leaning against a tree, he slid down slowly, one hand wiping some sweat off his brow. Was he hallucinating a moment ago when he saw a little girl's figure across of him? Shit... She's not real--he knows that, but ... his mind is playing tricks on him.

Eyes darted to the stars-decorated-sky to calm his nerves. Something about this sky is different than the one he used to watch back when he was a kid. Heck, everything is different now that he is older. Everything is ... bland. Even a beautiful night sky like this feels ..lacking.

Despite knowing Lon'qu was in earshot of him, Isaac didn't see the man respond at all. He just continued walking on, so Isaac kept pace after him. Finally Lon'qu paused, with Isaac slowly approaching.

"Then I won't make the 'why' my business," Isaac's speech was cut short as Lon'qu resumed charging ahead. So Isaac kept after him, calling, "but it's unwise for any of us to be out here alone at night! If something happened you wouldn't even be able to call for help. You're more responsible than that, Lon'qu!"

His plan was to sneak under the cover of the night and find a place to sit down with his thoughts. Preferably, he would have liked to train in peace but certainty not at this hour. He'd cause unneeded attention to himself. Thus, he opt to sit down somewhere in peace.

To his chagrin, he sensed a presence following him but kept on walking until they were out of earshot. The swordsman stopped on his heels, but didn't bother to look behind him. The footsteps were not unfamiliar to him but he is yet to register them in his mind. However, the voice ... Chrom's friend, isn't he? The stranger who is not from this realm.

"It is not of your business," he replied back and without giving him much chance to resume poking into his business, Lon'qu continued his walking into the forest nearby.

Another night of guard duty. Isaac didn't mind, it meant the camp trusted him, and it was an important task. He met up with the few others on guard duty to report what they'd seen in the past hour, and thankfully aside from a few harmless animals, it was a quiet night.

He headed back through his portion of the camp when he spotted a figure emerging from one of the tents. Instead of approaching though, the figure headed away from camp. Going alone, especially at night, was dangerous. Recalling the camp layout for personal tents that one belonged to...

As silently as a mouse, Isaac followed after Lon'qu. Though once away from camp he decided to make his presence known. Otherwise startling the man would get Isaac's throat slit.

"Lon'qu?" Isaac called, but not so loudly it would carry to the other guards at camp. "Are you feeling sick? It's dangerous for any of us to wander off at night, even a swordsman as skilled as you."

Help ... me ..... he......me.....HELP ME, LON'QU!

Eyes shot wide open to the haunting apparition of his nightmare, Lon'qu gasped for air, trying to calm himself. It's just another nightmare...another one...how many had he have in the past week? Too many to count. Was it because of their last trip to Ferox that triggered his memories even more? Cherche did tell him about Ke'ri's parents forgiving him but ... did she ever forgive him?

How vexing. If only he was stronger--if only they didn't go to that picnic spot... Just bunch of ifs won't bring her back and won't change the past nor sooth his broken heart.

Wiping some sweat off his forehead, Lon'qu decided to go for a walk then perhaps he can clear his head and get some sleep. If he can.

Stepping outside of his tent, he could see the guards on patrols so he made sure to avoid bothering them and walk somewhere no one was there. Or so he thought.

Isaac couldn't kept from laughing, even with Chrom looking ready to draw his blade. It took him a second to get his laughter under control before responding. "That's to assume I'm easy to kill." Isaac had pulled this stunt knowing there was a chance Chrom would hit him--or worse. So Isaac was ready to counter any of Chrom's attacks. Thankfully all that had happened was his shoulder being grabbed by his brother. With the jab from Chrom Isaac scooted off him and offered a hand to pull him up. "I know you fret over your birthday every year, but it's amazing that everyone gets so excited to celebrate you. I think they'd do it regardless of status. You're just that great of a person that the people around you want to show they care."

"Though, if you'd like I can stay with you as you make the rounds, instead of hiding away. I kept my nose out of the others' plans so they're as much of a surprise to me."

A good gift always comes as a surprise, even on birthdays. That's why Chrom's gift this year is a tackle hug from Isaac the second he steps out of his tent.

It would be ignorant of him to not expect anything today. It was his birthday and god only knows what these guys outside have prepared because he knows for sure, at least, Lissa was up to something with her running and hiding here and there yesterday.

Though he was not exactly expecting Isaac's surprise. Opening the flaps to his tent, his eyes were adjusting to the light when suddenly felt something--no, someone tackling him to the ground. His flight fight response was to quickly grab into the person but the blue hair was a dead give away to who tackled him.

"UWAH---!? What the-- Isaac!? What's--cough, seriously? I was about to hurt you!" the two laying there on the ground and of course, the other man was laughing at Chrom's face--pouting and upset looking.

"That's not funny ..." said he while looking to the side attempting his best to not laugh. "Get off me, you're heavy. What have you eaten, a bear?" pushing him to the side so he can sit up. "Imagine if I actually had pulled Falchion on you? That could have ended badly ON MY birthday." giving Isaac's side a quick jab. "I don't want to hurt my brother."

"I know you mean well which is why I'm not mad. Just ... kind of scared now that you decided to tackle me I wonder what the others are up to. And since I don't see anyone coming out to see what happened with that echoing yelp I just made means...I am indeed in trouble. I should retreat to my tent..."

Letting out a soft chuckle, he looks back at Isaac. "Thanks. You always find a way to make the start of my day better."

He peeked outside his tent to see no one was around but as soon as he tried to get out a tsk noise was heard prompting him to look to the back and see Isaac. He was crossing his arms and tapping his feet on the ground, almost as if he was ... irritated? "Er, um ... In my defense I am about to lose my mind if I stayed in the tent any longer...please? Just a little walk, Isaac." Giving him the most pleading look he got.

Oh he certainly was irritated. Chrom was still recovering from beign down with a fever, and while on the road like this any illness could turn deadly if not managed.

Still he listened to what Chrom had to say. Isaac took a slow inhale, carefully mulling over what was best for his friend and King. Chrom wouldn't sit still and rest idly for any longer but...

Isaac pressed a hand to Chrom's forehead. "You're still a bit warm."

He sighed. "If you want, we can go to the mess tent, spend some time with the others but then it's back to resting. You'll worry everyone if collapse again."

Hey dude. I noticed that you seem to be having a lot of symbolic association with the ouroboros icon and I just wanted to know if you were like. ok. or like, that you're experiencing time linearly and not stuck in an eternal loop of the same events.

Love love love characters that present themselves as emotionally open social butterflies but the more you see of them the more obvious it is that they’re the most closed off fuckers in the story. Sure, they want to help you with your personal problems and messy emotions, but if you turn that shit back on them, they’ll shut down or deflect every time. Why are you sticking your nose in their business anyway? It’s not like it matters. They’re not a person, they’re just a role being played. They’re the guy who fixes things and saves people. Please ignore the man behind the mask, he’s fine. Everything’s fine.

"Here," Isaac turned Ryuji to face the mirror with him, and stood at his side with his own tie undone.

"It just takes practice, the same as shoe laces." Isaac calmly assured. "So first you have your two ends. Then you loop the wide one around once, then go around half-way and bring it over the V that you made, and pull it through the loop. Then from there you tighten and adjust it." He undid his own tie once more and walked Ryuji through the steps slowly at the same pace as the former track star.

"Loop it here, put it through there..." He thought at first glance that tying a tie ought to be simple, yet this was turning out to be harder than he thought...!

"How the hell do people do this, again...?"

"Isaac, can I ask you something? What does Hope like?" fidgeting in her place.

Isaac blinked at the question. What did Hope like?

"Ahhh...tea?" He offered without much certainty. He felt bad since Lucina came to him to ask this but...

"I know Hope is my daughter, but that's in the future for me. I don't know her as well as her actual father does." Seeing Lucina look disappointed hurt though...

"Hmm what I do know about her is she a very kind and considerate person. So if you're wanting to get her a gift, if you genuinely put a lot of thought and care into choosing it, Hope will see that and love it."

Someone is here to scoop up the pouty princess and take her on an adventure! "Happy Belated, Lissa!" He says, twirling her around as he carries her off.

Upsettie noises. How come no one remembered her birthday? Heck, even Chrom forgot! Commence grumble noises. Very demure.
