History Fanfic / ShatteredReflection

* KnightTemplarBigBrother: Played for laughs in Chapter 24 when [[spoiler:Priam]] proposes to Say'ri; Yen'fay has to be physically restrained from mauling the poor dude.

** Rose was married to her timeline's version of Chrom, and Lon'qu and Olivia are already a couple before the story proper begins. In addition, Chapter 17 reveals all of the official pairings of the story: [[spoiler:Robin/Tiki, Nowi/Donnel, Lissa/Henry, Maribelle/Ricken, Libra/Tharja, Anna/Gregor, Frederick/Miriel, Vaike/Panne, Sully/Kellam, Gaius/Sumia, Cordelia/Stahl, Virion/Cherche, Basilio/Flavia, Priam/Say'ri, and Emmeryn/[[OriginalCharacter Aedan]].]]

* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Henry can communicate with his pet crows, and his child [[spoiler:Owain]] inherits his ability.

* WordOfGod:
** The author Natzo has explained in their end notes of their chapters the details of certain aspects of the story like the other fanmade Future Kids, the numbers for the wars, what the characters have been wearing, etc.
** Natzo has also made a diagram for Chapter 22 to explain the timeline and explain a crucial part of the story's events. [[spoiler:The diagram explains that the two Lucinas (one called Nasty!Lucina and Nice!Lucina by Natzo) along with their group had actually SWITCHED timelines when F!Robin tried to protect them from F!Grima when she tried to stop them. The Lucina seen in Present Robin's timeline is not only Nice!Lucina but also is actually Rose's future daughter she had with Chrom with Morgan and Marc as her twin siblings. Meanwhile, Nasty!Lucina is from Future Robin's timeline and went to the wrong timeline much the same way. This is why the events of the first chapter happens and why Rose was automatically suspect no. 1, it's because she never existed in her timeline.]]

* DeadGuyJunior: Lon'qu's second daughter Ke'ri is named after his deceased childhood friend.

* ChekhovMIA: [[spoiler:Lucina, Morgan, and Marc from the first timeline were mentioned to be missing. The twins eventually show up in the third timeline, but the first timeline Lucina is still unaccounted for.]]
** It's revealed that [[spoiler: she arrived in the third timeline along with the rest of the first-timeline future children, having been redirected there due to Rose fighting back against Grima and inadvertently switching the destinations of the first and third-timelines future children.]]

* InTheHood: Rose. While both she and Robin have hoodes on their robes, Robin tends to keep his down while Rose constantly has hers up, on top of enchanting it to further obscure her face.

** It's revealed in Chapter 22 that [[spoiler: she arrived in the third timeline along with the rest of the first-timeline future children, having been redirected there by Rose's battle with Grima.]]

** Its revealed in Chapter 22 that [[spoiler: she arrived in the third timeline along with the rest of the first-timeline future children, having been redirected there by Rose's battle with Grima.]]

* AccidentalPervert: Chrom, much like in the original game. [[TheTease Rose takes full advantage of it to get some petty revenge.]]
** Happens again after Emmeryn's wedding when Chrom (and Robin and Gaius) blunder into Rose's room to find her stark naked. [[spoiler:Along with Phila.]] The three are lucky to make it out alive.

* BackupTwin: [[spoiler:Rose killed Validar ahead of schedule and sealed his soul for good measure? Not a problem. Grima just whips out the Validar from his future to replace him.]]
** Thorn, and by extension Rose, are literally backup twin for Falchion and Robin respectively since Thorn was made as a backup in case Chrom or Robin where to fall.

* CrazyPrepared: During the battle for Ylisstol, the Shepherds account for anything that could reasonable happen in order to repel the invading army. Their back-up plans wind up having back-up plans, and ''all'' of them become necessary.

* DudeWheresMyRespect: Robin and Rose work their tails off to win battles for the Shepherds and do everything they possibly can to keep as many people alive as possible. Nonetheless, due to their Plegian origins, none of the Shepherds save Chrom ever offer them the approval they've earned, with the rest either being blatant and unironic racists, or just showing utter indifference to their efforts and the troubles they're going through. They have, for the most part, just gotten used to it.
** Most of the Shepherds have been getting better about it. At least for now.

* FantasticRacism: Robin and Rose are Plegian, biologically. The Shepherds make sure to let them know about this. Frequently. And with lots of mean words. This was enough to cause many fans to start rooting for Rose to simply kill them all.
** [[spoiler: [[CharacterDevelopment They get better about it over time,]] [[TheCynic much to Rose's surprise and disbelief. It's unclear if they will retain that attitude.]]]]

* InSeriesNickname: Robin and Rose are called "Little chick" and "Little Flower" by their [[spoiler:mother, Morgana.]] Lissa even teases Robin about his nickname in one chapter.

* {{Irony}}: [[spoiler:In the second timeline, Lucina tried to change destiny by killing Grima while making sure it also stays on course by making sure Chrom marries her mother Arianne instead of Rose. This meddling ends with the ZombieApocalypse right on schedule, with Old Hubba noting that had she not interfered so much, the world would have been saved.]]
** As revealved by Natzo's diagram for the timelines [[spoiler: ROSE is responsible for her own tragedy. When F!Grima tried to stop the future kids from going to the past, Rose, then still F!Robin, tried to stop it. Unfortunately, the clash caused the children to get thrown off-course and end up in the third timeline. If F!Robin didn't fight so hard with F!Grima, the children would've ended up in the right timeline and the game's events would follow smoothly.]]

* OfficialCouple: Rose was married to her timeline's version of Chrom, and Lon'qu and Olivia are already a couple before the story proper begins. In addition, Chapter 17 reveals all of the official pairings of the story: [[spoiler:Robin/Tiki, Nowi/Donnel, Lissa/Henry, Maribelle/Ricken, Libra/Tharja, Anna/Gregor, Frederick/Miriel, Vaike/Panne, Sully/Kellam, Gaius/Sumia, Cordelia/Stahl, Virion/Cherche, Basilio/Flavia, Priam/Say'ri, and Emmeryn/[[OriginalCharacter Aedan]].]]

* ButtMonkey: Samuel the black market arms dealer who exists only so Rose can screw up his life. First Rose steals all his weapons and his house before kicking him out of Ylisse. He moves far away to some farm in the middle of nowhere, only to get robbed again by Rose and [[spoiler:her mother Morgana.]] This time, he decides to move another continent away to Valm, and gets robbed ''again'', this time by [[spoiler:Morgan and Marc, her children from the first timeline.]] Dude just can't catch a break, not that he deserves one. And that's after Rose broke his leg so badly it never healed right and [[spoiler: Morgana]] cursed his [[GroingAttack manhood to implode]] in response to being groped.

* EtTuBrute: After years of working beside and trusting her comrades, all Rose got out of it was a sword through the heart from the man she loved, with her daughter crying tears of joy at watching a demon be slain.

They went to the third timeline by accident thanks to F!Grima being stopped by her human part.]]
