"Not that I'm prying buuuut... Has there been a moment wherein you and your dad had a big fight? Like, do you ever just, throw your hands up and be all 'done' with him not taking you seriously? And, do you ever... like regret and stuff and what do you do to make it up because you don't want to end up giving each other the cold shoulder and ahaha oh look I'm rambling!" Stella smiled stiffly, trying her best not to show panic in her voice. "I-I'm just asking for a friend for advice... yeah! AhAHAH"
"Oh, Freddy?" The summoner beamed at the mention of her High General. "Yeah! He's my number one right hand man!" Contemplating the question further, Stella paused before continuing.
"While my Heroes would claim how I have done feats worthy to be toe to toe with some of the more famed Tactician Heroes, it was never that way from the start. Quite frankly, I was terrible at my job, often making mistakes and breaking down in panic." She smiled fondly, a memory flashing through her head.
"That's where Frederick comes in. Along with a few handful of Heroes, he helped me get used to things, guided me through my first few battles, and reassured me that I will get better through training. Unlike Xander, who was carrying my team and who was more focused ON the team, Frederick redirected his focus of attention towards me." She sighs, further expanding. "Hell, he was practically running the army for me during those first few months. No wonder Al treated me with caution back then." Erandia grimaced, mentally apologizing at the Prince for her lack of abilities.
"Now that I've actually managed to get a grasp on things, I'm not so heartless as to just treat him like an ordinary soldier. So, for lack of a better description, I 'married' him." Stella laughs at the somewhat surprised looked at her confession. "Relax, I use 'married' but it's more formally called a Support. Normally, reaching S on another unit would mean marriage but it can also mean devotion and loyalty. Not all S-Supports are romantic in nature." She leans back, as she combed her mind for more details she could add.
"It's precisely for that reason I call him my High General, just a distinction and my appreciation. Honestly? He'll probably wear that title until he requests to be sent home or if the war finally ceases." Stella winked, her eyes twinkling in mischief. "Leeeet's not make that last part known to others, okay? The Council probably expects me to place someone else my High General, fat chance at that." She laughs, fondness and affection present in her voice for her right-hand man.
((A little funfact OOC: Frederick is the entire reason why I got into FE AND Summer!Frederick in particular is what got me to play Heroes. Needless to say, the position of Summoner Support wont go to anyone but him.))
