Hey, this was great! You know, I never really got involved with couples in this fire Emblem game. I played it and loved it, but I always adored Sacred Stones and Seth/Eirika. Then I saw some art of Lyn and Rath and suddenly realized how much I really liked that pair. I searched for fanfiction, and this was the first one I found. Like I said, it was great! I really loved it. :D

I know you you're probably wondering why on earth I would be searching Lyn/Rath fanfiction in 2015, haha... Really, I don't have an explanation. I've never gotten over my obsession with Seth/Eirika so I'm kinda stuck in the past. As much as I do love Awakening, I can't get over some of the old games and stories.

So thanks for posting this!

Wow. Even after all these years I still ship Rath/Lyn. Thanks so much for contributing to the one paring I love more than anything!

aw, they are such a cute couple!

Mm, I do love RathxLyn. :) Well written!

One of my favourite parts in this is how it begins, with Rath reviewing his rivals. I personally think that's the first clue that you have feelings for someone - being jealous of all their friends. I also appreciate the poke in Eliwood's direction - isn't he just a little too perfect? But I digress.

I almost feel as though this moves too fast, though. It's implied that she and Rath have already established a bond in this tale, so it's not farfetched to assume they love each other... but for someone as very isolated and taciturn as Rath, going straight for a kiss after taking Lyn's hand might be a bit too forward! Perhaps that's my opinion. All in all, I certainly enjoyed the read! D

Sounds just like them, and well written just the same. Great job.

i loved the story and yes we need more rath/lyn stories they are a cute couple

Very Good! I LOVE LynxRath, and, responding to what you said in the afterword, I hate LynxEliwood. I like Eliwood, but to me Lyn and him just don't mix at all. Anyway, you said something about a JanaffxLucia fic. I really like them, too. I'm going to look under your favorites, but if it isn't there, could you send me the title, please?

Wow. wonderful job! Now hurry up and finish the Deal! ...Please?... iwannaknowhowitends...

I liked this.

Okay, there's good and bad. The good is that the story wasn't too drawn out nor too short. It was also a fun one to read. The bad comes a little from my own personal opinions. One is that Ninian and Eliwood are the best pairing in all Fire Emblem history no matter what anyone says! Two is that, though this may be from me liking EliwoodxNinian so much, or it might be because you were trying to show Rath's unsureness of himself, but Lyn and Eliwood are not, never will be, and cannot ever be even close to being close! KentxLyn is okay, though RathxLyn is better. HectorxLyn was my fav when I was an FE newb, but HectorxFlorina is so much better! I did think it was a little too OOC for Rath at times, but VERY Good otherwise( though I MIGHT just be saying that because I love RathxLyn stories).

OMG this was so cute!

i luv this pairing and this is one of the CUTEST ones ever...

::sigh:: why can't i write like this?

haha anyway...this is amazing! i just don't understand how some people hate this pairing!

AWESOME JOB!

Fluff! I

Aw, thanks! There really does need to be more Lyn/Rath, or just non-yaoi Rath in general. You hit Rath's personality dead-on; of course he would be insecure, giving his emotionally crushing childhood. (I, personally, would have become a homicidal maniac who targets happy children if I were in his position.)The ending, or I guess the last half, made me especially happy. It sounds like a support after the A support, the mythical "S" support, because it sounds like a mixture of all of them, plus what SHOULD have been in the A support:

"If you belong with me...Then never leave my side again, and I will never again leave yours." That's an awesome line. Wonderful job! I wish I had more to say.

Hm...I haven't read much Rath/Lyn, but this is good! remember to update 'The Deal'!

This was very sweet...I can't see Rath comparing himself to Hector and Eliwood and Kent, though.
