Y'ever think what kind of pets the Shepherds would have? I always imagined Severa would have a long haired cat and Brady would have a pet snail, or something else he'd get unusually attached to.
You would probably be more an expert on Severa, since I’ve talked before about how I don’t personally like her much. ;v;
As for the others, I usually imagine the kids at least starting out with family pets – and since ‘family’ can be pretty variable, since there are so many father options, I usually find it easier to just go with the first generation of Shepherds:
Chrom grew up using hunting dogs, but I definitely think that if he had the chance, he would want a pet dog of his own – and at some point he probably adopts a retired hunting hound as a pet.
Lissa probably doesn’t have real pets of her own, but she’s pretty fond of catching frogs, and has gotten really attached to the ones in the garden pond
Frederick has his destrier to take care of and very little time besides; however, well before he was appointed to be Chrom and Lissa’s warden, he probably had an old hound as a family pet
Robin has probably adopted a cat that they dote on (and who is decidedly a lap cat), but I also love to imagine that they helped Henry rehabilitate a raven that just. Never left. And who now takes care of them.
Sully has her horse. That monster is more than enough for anyone to handle. Given the chance, though, I definitely think she’d go for a falcon – or at least a big dog. She seems like the sort.
Stahl has his own mare to take care of, and he loves her dearly. He also probably has an odd collection of more eccentric things that he raises for their medicinal use, like butterflies and plants (they need love, too)
Vaike definitely seems like the kind of person who would have lots of dogs in all different sizes – but I can also see him having something really weird, like a fighting beetle, because it’s The Vaike.
Miriel has a cat that people like to refer to as her familiar. It’s very smart, she probably has it trained – but its also very good at getting her to take care of herself and take breaks (mostly by flopping out on her work).
Sumia has her dear pegasus that she takes excellent care of, but she also probably has something gentle and social that she takes care of at home, like doves.
Kellam has a garden tortoise that that he loves dearly and takes care of, letting it roam around the garden during the warmer months and then making sure it has a nice place to hibernate through the winter.
Donnel undoubtedly has chickens. Lots of chickens. He knows every single one of them by name and refers to them as “the gals” in the most loving voice imaginable.
Ricken probably has a few rats that he got from Henry. He wasn’t sure about it at first, but he fell in love with them really fast, and they tend to ride around on his shoulders or the brim of his hat.
Maribelle has her troubadour mount that she takes excellent care of, and she probably has a few pedigreed cats and dogs at home that she likes to show off and fuss over.
Gaius has a black and orange tabby tortoiseshell cat that follows him around. She’s not a housecat, instead following him around on jobs, and easily keeps up with all his stunts. He loves her and her name is Cookie.
Cordelia has her pegasus to take care of, and considering all the other work she does, she doesn’t have time to handle anything else. She would probably like an intelligent dog breed if she had the opportunity, though.
Libra probably doesn’t have any pets officially, but he’s a kind soul, and he doubtless feeds any strays that he happens across. Cats, dogs, and birds just congregate around whatever places he happens to be.
Lon’qu probably doesn’t think of it as a pet, but I can see him with a hawk that he uses for scouting and messaging purposes. Whether he means to or not, he dotes on it, and it’s fiercely loyal because of it.
Gregor is a mercenary and has spent a long time on the road, so he probably doesn’t have a pet. He would probably have a soft spot for dogs, though, and likely feeds strays he comes across.
Olivia would probably end up keeping the puppy that she and Henry found in their supports. It would be a sweet, energetic thing, and might even try to dance with her (as best a puppy can).
Virion probably kept a bunch of peacocks back in Roseanne (which Cherche probably hated because of the sound they make). If he settles in Ylisse, he’ll probably try to have them imported.
Cherche has Minerva. Minerva, in her opinion, is a house pet. No one has been able to convince her that this is probably not a good idea (and no one ever will).
Nowi probably has a lizard (maybe even a bearded dragon). She doesn’t know what it is, but she doesn’t care, because it just looks super cool; they sun themselves together and it’s quite charming.
Panne doesn’t believe in having pets for a variety of reasons, and therefore takes no part in it; however, she does feel a very strong affection for rabbits, for rather obvious ones.
Tharja probably has a collection of spiders and snakes that she uses for raw hexing ingredients (scales, venom, hair, etc). Among them, though, she probably has a favorite tarantula and a cuddly python.
Henry just has an all-out menagerie. The man really loves animals. Cats, dogs, rats, rabbits, doves, crows, ravens, chickens, foxes, lizards, snakes, toads, tortoises, spiders – you name it, e probably has it.
