Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate it! Sorry for the delay in me writing this, I got busy with schoolwork again. This paralogue was requested by Author-Chan-Sempai ! I hope you enjoy!

(Y/n)'s POV

"(Y/n), help me improve my archery skills!" My anxious husband barged into my study.

"Why? This better be a good reason since you interrupted my work." I said in an irritated voice.

"Innes is coming to castle Renais for Thanksgiving and—"

"The answer is no." I said cutting him off, continuing my paperwork.

Recently, it seems like Innes and Ephraim's rivalry has intensified. Every time they see each other they have an olympic type competition where they compete sometimes in the most frivolous things!

"Please (Y/n)~" Ephraim pleaded.

"Get on your knees and beg Restoration King." I scoffed.

To my surprise he actually got on his knees. Damn, he must be desperate.

"Fine." I sighed, arising from my chair. "But you owe me!"

"Yes! Thanks (Y/n), I'll repay you," He cheered.

However, before I was able to teach him anything, a Renais guard came in, informing us that the king of Frelia has arrived. Ephraim sighed, and the two of us made our way to the foyer to welcome the arrival of our guests.

"Brother, (Y/n) it's so good to see you again!" Eirika, queen of Frelia exclaimed.

"Hello Eirika, it's good to see you too!" I replied. "Ephraim, say hello to your—"

When I looked to my side, the king of Renais was gone, and so was the Frelian king.

"Oh brother, they're at it again." Eirika and I sighed.

"Your arrow did not hit the bullseye! It is slightly in the 75 point range!" Innes argued.

"No it's not! My arrow is slightly in the bullseye range!" Ephraim protested.

"Are you blind?! Clearly, your arrow sits in the 75 point range!" Innes yelled.

"You're the blind one Innes! Just admit defeat!" My husband retorted.

"Never! Why don't we let your wife be the judge, she's a real archer?!" The king of Frelia suggested.

"Alright, fine! (Y/n), come here." The king of Renais ordered interrupting the Frelian queen and I's conversation.

"No," I replied, but the king of Renais wasn't taking no for an answer, so he lifted me out of my chair as I complained, and brought me close to the target.

"It's in the 75 point range." I told him, although the arrow was actually on the line.

"Exactly! Listen to your wife, a real archer." Innes proclaimed.

"Damn, I should have practiced more." Ephraim mumbled in despair, but was then cheered up when the two of them moved on to their next competition: a duel with lances.

Ephraim had the advantage, and won that event making the score between the two kings 1-1. The next event they participated in was cooking, with Eirika and I as the taste testers. This match would decide it all.

"I hope this means the two of you are cooking for thanksgiving." Eirika and I said as our daughters of about the same age entered the room at the mention of food.

"Dad, you can cook? I thought all you could do is fight!" My daughter said to her father.

"Yeah, you too Daddy! I thought all you did was brag about how Frelia is better than Renais!" Eirika and Innes' daughter Innessa said.

"What! Renais is way better than Frelia!" (D/n) proclaim.

"You're wrong! If Daddy says Frelia is better, than its true!" Innessa argued with her cousin.

"Well your Dad is a liar!"

"That's not true, my daddy is smarter than your daddy! If anyone's a liar it's your daddy."

The cousins from Frelia and Renais got into a physical altercation, but it was immediately broken up.

"Innes, Brother. This is your fault," Eirika sighed at the two men.

"She's right. The two of you are acting like children instead of the kings of Renais and Frelia." I scolded them.

Eirika then turned to our daughters. "Neither Renais nor Frelia is better. It doesn't matter where you're from, we are all people. Do you understand?"

"Yes mommy, I understand. Sorry, (D/n)." Innessa apologized.

"I forgive you Innessa...I guess I'm sorry too." The princess of Renais apologized.

"Good. Family shouldn't fight each other. Especially during this time of Thanksgiving." The queen of Frelia stated, glaring at the kings.

"I suppose they have a point." Innes sighed.

"Right...let's conclude this match as a draw." Ephraim said.

"Aw, but what about the food!" Our daughters whined.

"Why don't we all prepare for this feast together? We can make the food, and at the same time bond as a family!" Eirika suggested.

We all nodded in agreement as we began to cook for our Thanksgiving feast. The Renais chefs came in and insisted that they cook for us, but we refused and told them to take the day off and go celebrate with their families.

Hours passed, and finally it was time to eat and give thanks. The dinning room table was decorated with Frelia and Renais traditional thanksgiving foods: oven baked rotisserie turkey, mashed potatoes, fresh caught fish from Frelia, mutton from Renais, collard greens, squash, white wine for the adults, and juice for (D/n), (S/n), and Innessa. Starting with (S/n), we went around the table and said what we are thankful for.

"I-i'm thankful for my family, but I would like to have a brother." (S/n) said.

"Did you hear that (Y/n), (S/n) wants a brother~" My husband smirked.

"(D/n), it's your turn." I said ignoring Ephraim.

"I'm thankful for being strong! One day, I'm going to surpass my father and become the best lancer in all of Magvel!" (D/n) declared.

"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree I see. Innessa, what are you thankful for?" Innes asked.

"Of course for my family, and for being the most beautiful girl across the continent of Magvel like daddy tells me I am!" The Frelian princess exclaimed.

"That's right Innessa. You and mommy are the most beautiful girls in the world to me." Innes smiled hugging both his wife and child.

"Alright, it's my turn. Simply put, I'm thankful for peace being restored across Magvel, and being able to have a family again." Eirika said as it was now my turn.

"I'm thankful for a lot of things, but I guess I'm most thankful for being alive. There were many times were I probably should have been killed, but I was protected by an aegis." I said.

"Heh, you should give your aegis something in return for his protection...like some more kids~" The blue haired king nudged me.

"W-we'll discuss that matter after our guests leave." A flustered me told him. "Anyway, you're next Restoration King, what are you thankful for?"

"Me? Everything that was mentioned already, but I would like to add that I am thankful that Innes is my rival." He said shocking us.

"Now that's something you don't hear everyday." I chuckled.

"Likewise." The archer king replied. "You keep me on my toes, and your ignorance to the most simple of things greatly amuses me."

"Ignorance? Ha, I think you've mistaken me for someone else." The lance wielding king laughed.

"Haha, I think not. Ignorance blinds you my friend." Innes laughed.

"Sir Innes, I may be a tad ignorant, but at least I'm not arrogant." Ephraim retorted.

"You two...just admit you're best friends and not rivals." Eirika sighed.

"Sister, Innes and I will always be rivals...but we'll always be friends too." My husband smiled, extending his hand out to the Frelian noble.

"A good friend makes a good rival." Innes smirked, accepting his frenemy's firm handshake.

Eirika and I smiled at each other in peace that their husbands rivalry would continue until their last days, and so would their friendship.
