Loved it P. And I love HectorxFarina too!

Cool! Farina is a pretty awesome character - as if an FE girl ISN'T - and it's also good to see a fic between her and Hector, especially with such subtlty. On the surface, the girl seems like a simple-minded mercenary with a love of gold, but she has a great depth of love for her sisters and fights for them as well - not to mention her charity with Dorcas in their Supports.

But I like how you've depicted her. She'll mourn Murphy, but only when she has time to feel helpless. She's determined to fulfill her contract to Hector, to PROVE that she's worth the high price he paid for her. She has a sense of vulnerability, but refuses to let it show. And her belief in luck, strangely enough, actually FEELS like her there. In some way, although I rarely think much about Farina, I somehow KNOW that you've done her character justice. I even like the bit with Hector - there's hints of possible romance in the future, but it doesn't go all mushy. Besides, we need to see the underrated pairings more often - you don't know how much I'd love to read an Eliwood/Fiora, getting away from all the Eli/Lyn and Wli/Ninian fics!

... really enjoyed this ficlet, small though it was.

gODSPEED!
