Sullion

Sulion is the Het ship between Sully and Virion from the Fire Emblem fandom.

Canon
Sully is a female knight in the Kingdom of Ylisse, she is one of Chrom's long-time friends and among his most loyal subjects. Virion is a noble from the region of Rosanne, who went into a self-imposed exile after the conqueror Walhart took over the regions where he lived.

Sully and Virion first show up at the start of Chapter 1 set in the West of Ylisse, where Sully rushes to help Chrom, Frederick, Lissa and Robin deal with a surge of Risen soldiers while Virion tails behind her and has a love-at-first sight scenario then attempts to flirt and propose to Sully in the heat of the battle, to which Sully just snarks about and kicks him in the face before both help the others drive off the undead soldiers and thus ensure everyone makes it out alive. At that point they return to the Ylisstol where they rest before the rest of the events of Awakening take place, including the Valm Arc where we learn about Virion's reasons for coming to Ylisse. It's possible to pair them up and have them romantically support through the story as with most female and male characters can.

In their C Support Virion offers himself to become Sully's protector to which the tough and headstrong woman just replies with amusement at the thought of her ever needing Virion's aid in battle. Despite her violent reactions to his flirting, Virion nonetheless is charmed as ever and simply vows to prove himself worthy of being her protector and lover, eventually an amused Sully decides to wait and see what he'll do.

In their B Support Sully teases Virion after he backed out of a duel claiming he was sparing the man's life by not fighting which Sully doesn't buys. Virion is at first disheartened until Sully reveals she's just teasing him and says that she might consider him Hero material if he keeps "proving" himself, to which Virion replies with excitement over trying to win her over.

Their A Support Sully is shocked when she sees Virion win a duel against an enemy that the other Shepherds (herself included) had trouble defeating and is impressed that he did so to protect innocent villagers. Sully then gets annoyed when she interprets Virion's desire to defend the weak as him thinking of her as a weak fighter, regardless she mentions that she's gotten fonder of him now that she's seen he's as good in battle as he claims and his courage to which Virion resolves to try and truly win her over now that he's seen that she's fonder of him.

In their S Support Virion reaches out to Sully for a talk, only for her to troll him by remaining silent until he "yields" when he claims her silence is daunting and Sully reveals her play and that she wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine over his tendency to talk all over other people and that she also wanted to know the weakness of the man she now wanted as her future husband. Virion is shocked when Sully legitimately returns his feelings and begins stuttering while Sully is amused at his dorkiness showing for once, at the end of the Support Sully tells him to come along to buy a wedding ring with the still nervous Virion following along.

Once Grima is defeated in the final paralogue Virion returns to Rosanne but is met with scorn for "abandoning" his people, however Sully defending him from the others' opinions fiercely, change the populace's views on the noble and lead to his people regaining their faith and admiration for him.

Fanon
Sullion is a fairly popular ship in the fandom, stemming from it having canonical moments beyond the Supports and the playful yet endearing nature of their supports and how Sully makes sure that Virion grows to respect her beyond his womanizing ways-motivated chivalry.

In fanon the most common portrayal, carrying over from their canonical interactions, is that of Virion being the soft husband while Sully is a protective and dominating wife who dictates in the house. It's also common for Virion to be her stress relief as he will calm her down and in turn she will give him a bit more of a spine in his life. It's also common for Virion's and Sully's parentage of Kjelle to be portrayed with Kjelle being embarrassed over her father like her mother is.
