Yuriashe

Yuriashe is the slash ship between Yuri Leclerc and Ashe Ubert from the Fire Emblem fandom.

Canon
Yuri and Ashe come from incredibly similar backgrounds- both were born commoners before being adopted by a noble in Faerghus. At some point, the two had met as children, as they would later recognize each other during Cindered Shadows. This was likely due to Lord Lonato, Ashe's adoptive father, answering to Count Rowe, who adopted Yuri. Both also enjoy cooking for people.

Ashe is one of six units playable during the Cindered Shadows storyline, where the player first meets Yuri and the Ashen Wolves. If Ashe confronts Yuri during Chapter 1 of CS, Yuri will recognize him as Lonato's adoptive son, which makes Ashe, in turn, recognize him as Rowe's adoptive son. When Ashe suggests taking Yuri back to Rowe territory, Yuri laughs and warns Ashe to watch himself, lest he lose a limb (or his life).

If Yuri is recruited into the Golden Deer or Black Eagles (and the player sides with Rhea in the latter, starting the Silver Snow route), he can be sent to confront Ashe as an enemy during Chapter 15: Valley of Torment. If this happens, the following plays out.


 * Yuri: Do you truly intend to forfeit your life for House Rowe? There's still time to change your mind.
 * Ashe: I finally understand Lonato. He knew of standing for his beliefs... and he paid it glady. I will do the same!
 * Yuri: I like you. Don't be an idiot. Or maybe I'll just have to smack some sense into you.

However, if both are present in the same house, they lack any supports, meaning the player can't learn more about their relationship.

Fanon
Yuriashe is far from being a popular pairing. However, it does have its followers, however few they may be. This is mainly due to the fact that they have similar backstories and interests, along with having known each other at some point prior to the game. The "I like you. Don't be an idiot." line from their dialogue at Ailell seems to be the main contributor to fans of the pairing, and conversely, their lack of supports seems to be the main reason it doesn't have many followers. A popular trope among Yuriashe fanfic writers is for Yuri to nickname Ashe "sparrow."
