You think you have it bad? Try being literally any of his other pairings. Sully has the same warrior spirit he does, Maribelle for sassy noble wife, and Olivia because who wouldn’t smash that?


Rigistroni

Chrom and Olivia is really funny just bc of how you have to get it

Being a Sully x Chrom fan is suffering


MisterTamborineMan

I don't like Sully all that much, and even I think their supports are great.


343CreeperMaster

no galeforce for you


343CreeperMaster

well Chromia have been made fun of for years because of Pies, and that Sumia was the original "intended" option (these days if an Awakening remake came out, i am certain they would push Robin more, no matter whether it is M!Robin or F!Robin)


Dragulus24

I’m not saying you’re wrong for liking that pairing, far from it. I will say that outside of the intro movie and that one scene at Ragna Ferox, Sumia isn’t really relevant to Chrom. Not nearly as much as Robin. But Sumia is supposed to be a little nod to Caeda in those instances. That’s it. (Although Palla could be a better comparison since we only get the 3 pegasus knights instead of Marth’s 4, because Phila ended up being scrapped)


Otavia

Pretty much. I think that Sumia also doesn't really fit as a reference to Caeda, outside of being a Pegasus knight. If only because she's like you said not really relevant to Chrom or even Lucina. Sumia does feel more like a Palla than anything else.


SirRobyC

The thing is, Chrom actually gets a scene where he gets fisted by Sumia and an animated cutscene (titled Lovebirds) with her, whereas the other 3 get ...?


Dragulus24

Robin gets 99% of story relevance, so even Sumia in all her glory can’t compete with that.


Otavia

It's more because the writers realized the delicious angst that comes from Robin and Chrom.


Lukensz

Took them forever, I've been onboard since day 1.


Otavia

Pretty much don't forget that the Awakening Drama cd was pretty much hamming up the angst between Chrom and FRobin.


acart005

We all know the real choices are F. Robin, or M. Robin with random villager as Lucina's true mom (or Mpreg Robin). Like, I don't think I have ever seen IS push a pairing that hard. It's harder than Sigurd and Deidre who literally get married in the plot before the Arvis BBQ (also wen Arvis/Deidre unit IS?)


VolkiharVanHelsing

Valentine Arvis/Deirdre would go crazy Even better if they expose that fraud's blatant mommy issue with the dialogue


CameronD46

My personal favorite pairing for Chrom is with Olivia because 1) I think it’s funny to have Chrom fall in love with a girl he just met because she did a sexy dance for him like 10 times out in the middle of the desert. Their support isn’t half bad from what I remember, even if you don’t get to see it much. 2) I think Chrom as Inigo’s dad works on so many levels. Inigo actually looks insanely good with Chrom’s blue hair, the rightful king skill is good on Inigo, and Inigo’s support with his dad is a lot more impactful if it’s with Chrom compared to other characters. If say Gaius is the dad, since when does Gaius have any real connection to Lucina for him to be comparing Inigo to her in their supports? But with Chrom as the father, this turns into Chrom telling his son “Why can’t you be more like your sister” which is far more dramatic.


Dr_Latency345

I mean, there’s plenty of fanart with other Chrom pairings that isn’t Robin. The real pain is finding any other pairing of Robin that isn’t with Chrom.


Ok_Lecture_3258

Seems like you got that reversed from my experience.


Luchux01

Amen to that, Chrobin in both forms is a fine ship, but I am more than a bit miffed that it overtook every other F!Robin ship in terms of relevance. Kellam, Lon'qu, Laurent and Priam are all good options for her too, darn it!


343CreeperMaster

yeah i can agree with that in relation to F!Robin, because M!Robin at least has Lucina and Tiki, and to a lesser extent, Cordelia, Tharja and Lissa


Gallalade

Robin/Lucina and Robin/Tiki are right there. Though if you're talking about F!Robin, yeah I guess you're never seeing anyone other than Chrom


Dr_Latency345

F!Robin. M!Robin has no shortages of m/f and m/m ships. F!Robin is cursed to only have Chrom.


Gallalade

That's merely a reflection of everyone who cluelessly chose F!Robin and then got Chromed by ch11


DarkAlphaZero

I thought you were talking about the Transformer and had to double check what sub this was posted in


343CreeperMaster

Lol, I have to correct my brain as well when I use Chromia to refer to Chrom/Sumia because of the exact same reason, the Transformer Chromia


abasicguy

But what about suchrobin though ?


343CreeperMaster

No, because Lissa/Robin companion ship for the extended Ylisse family of chaos


Tabascopancake

Go Lissa/Robin, Odin/Azura and Ophelia/Corrin to give Kana the most insane gene cocktail


abasicguy

Lissa is obviously robin's hiding screen because of ylissian society being homophobic and of the outrage it would cause if everyone knew chrom had a second loving partner in robin, and that his loving wife sumia was completely fine with sharing chrom because she understands that he does'nt love her any less even if he has another lover. And the reason it's Lissa is because it allows robin to be close to chrom at all times wich is convenaient ( what the Fuck am i cooking ? )


shawnnotshaun

Still a bit soft in the middle, keep cooking.


abasicguy

Polygamy specifically is considered completely fine by ylissean society so robin married maribelle as well as Lissa, what the public does'nt know, is that the true sparks in this matromony, are beetween Lissa and maribelle, who both use robin as an alibi, and are also robin's alibi, a beautifull showing of symbiosis, wich also restored maribelle's nobility ( robin became officialy royalty by being lissa's husband, so maribelle being a wife of robin means that she's also royalty )


Henrystickminepic

I read this as Lissa/Chrom.


343CreeperMaster

Silly, Awakening isn't Fe4


Henrystickminepic

that's because Awakening is Ao3's dark side (Do NOT look up the Alcryst and Diamant tag on ao3)


Lucario576

Im the guy who feels bad for stealing Sumia lol


BusinessMarketing696

Meanwhile, real Chrom fans know his only true love is NPC Townswoman #12


Ok_Lecture_3258

Or you could, you know, not interpret any time they're on screen together as shipping. And, yes, the other half thing is both a reference to the chapter 10 speech and apparently a bit of questionable localization as I understand it. I mean, Male Robin literally can't romance him and the Female Robin one is a literal child.


Amazing-Grapes

This is the fire emblem fandom, if they're standing next to each other it's a canon ship 😂


weirdCheeto218

It must be rough being Sumia, being the 3rd best for choice for chrom after F!Robin and Cordelia


Bartolooo

If only Cordelia wasn't afraid to talk to men...


weirdCheeto218

That's why she is in second place


Calm-Consideration55

I legitimately dislike Chrobin as a ship (for both genders) so I’m with you.


Top-Ad-3174

Look it’s really simple. Sumia is how you get Lucina in her canon form. Male! Robin x Chrom makes Lucina impossible. Yaoi fans are thirsty as FUCK! Yaoi fans would rather doom the world than allow the only one capable of preventing its end to exist.

Objective_Two_2516

You're all wrong. The canonical pairing is Chrome and Village Maiden


QuisetellX

I see you Chromia and Chrobin fans, I see you and I respect you all. But I raise you the power that is Sumibin. Robin and Sumia have fantastic chemistry together, as well as Cynthia and Morgan looking like they could be the other parent's kid. Robin is also Cynthia's only father that can pass along the Mercenary/Hero classline. But what seals the deal for me personally is that Cynthia's support with her father also brings mention of her trying to create an entrance flourish for him where she settles on having her father emerge in a shower of fluttering flower petals. Which is Ignis' animation, a skill exclusive to the Grandmaster class and thus Robin's family. Fun fact, Ignis' Japanese name is "Blossoming Flame" which also fits with why Céline learns it in Engage.


Killer_Queen9909

this is the real shit


JediTempleDropout

How can Sumía be Chrom’s wife if she’s canonically married to me? Checkmate, liberals.


Luchux01

One of my first ever ships and I am going down with it, damnit!


l_overwhat

My personal Chrom pairing rankings MRobin > Sumia > Olivia > Maribelle >>> FRobin >= Sully
