And this is when everyone starts to wonder if following Robina’s orders was a good idea or not. Why must they stand there doing nothing, when Eagler is right there? He could have been dead 20 turns ago! But no, Robina only orders Nils to play his flute, again and again and again.

It never ends.

HEADCANONS BELOW:

-Sain is the biological son of General Eagler. Caelin is small, so how likely is it that two green-haired knights one generation apart would take an interest in the same order? Eagler’s reaction to Sain turning his lance against him also reads as more surprised than Kent’s sword, and his final quote, “I think it’s time to test the bounds of your loyalty!” is the final test he leaves for Sain as his father and general. Facing his own blood in battle strengthens the oath he swears to the late marquess and later Lyn, by way of going to show just how far Sain is willing to go for the sake of his liege.

-His relationship with his father was not an amiable one. Eagler was a general before he was a dad to Sain, and so he sought to find love elsewhere. Enter a few sleazy knights who proclaimed “it is a cavalier’s job to fall for beautiful women,” and you have the perfect recipe for his lousy behavior. With a dad who only cared for Sain’s martial training, he was left to internalize for himself what he saw in the less honorable side of Caelin’s knights, and grew up with the belief that skirt-chasing was just the part of the job Kent never understood.

-His bisexuality is repressed as a result. He has it in him to enjoy the company of men just the same as that of women, but the heteronormative lessons he was taught did not condone that sort of thing. That isn’t to say he can’t break past that idea, though. It will just take considerable effort from him and those who care about him.

-His feelings for Lyn are the first real one he ever develops, but Sain is no fool. He knows she wouldn’t ever get with a man like him, so rather than trying to chase her he urges Kent to do instead, while distracting himself with the rest of the women in the army. His decision to leave her side following his unpaired ending is a poor attempt at burying those feelings--Sain having believed that he could simply run away once everything was said and done and that they’d just disappear. 

-His decision to come to Garreg Mach is the realization that genuine love is not so easy a thing to shake. It also stems from the fact that as he matures he begins to understand that sweet nothings from the citizenry cannot replace the feeling of his friends who truly care for him, though Sain himself sees this as simply a lack of passion. He hopes to bring that fire back with the others at the academy.

-Deriving from his death quote, he has a fondness for flowers and a hobby of gardening. The Greenhouse will easily be his favorite spot to chat up the ladies.

-He only writes in colored ink. Black ink lacks passion and flair, which goes oh so poorly with his poetic writing. 

-Horse meta coming to a post near you! I’ll get there someday I just need to Think about this one

-And finally, Sain secretly enjoys making dolls and toys for little kids. He likes to hand them out when he rides into town after a mission, which contributes to the way he is generally beloved by the citizenry
