3->The married life wasn't ever something that Emiya Shirou envisioned for himself, and yet he was now a househusband nonetheless. He loved his wife to death—even if that mecha school put her in a bad mood sometimes—but wasn't all this Infinite Stratos nonsense kind of a pain?

8!! This story provides examples of:
9* {{BFS}}: Chifuyu wielded a sword twice her size and just as wide as her with ease when she first met/fought Shirou. She later used it to interrupt a brawl between Ichika and Laura.
10* BrokenPedestal: Chapter 6 has Laura stomp up to Chifuyu's home to confront over Bruunhilde losing her edge. Chifuyu can outright hear Laura's image of her shattering when she sees Chifuyu wearing one of Shirou's shirts, looking very disheveled, while holding a tray of zuppa inglese.
11* CrypticBackgroundReference: When Shirou notices Charles' picture, he instantly realizes that the person in question is a girl dressing as a boy, and when Chifuyu asks, merely mentions having experience with cross dressers. He's clearly thinking of Saber.
12* DefeatMeansFriendship: [[spoiler:Chapter 6 all but outright states that Shirou and Chifuyu first met in Germany while Chifuyu was training the Schwarzer Hase because Shirou was investigating them for unknown reasons. The end of the chapter has them gearing up to fight, and Chifuyu's memories from an earlier point heavily imply that Shirou at least injured her badly, and possibly even won the fight outright]]. Several years later, the two are HappilyMarried.
13* EntertaininglyWrong: Due to Chifuyu barely spending any time with him and giving no indication that she was dating, Ichika assumes that she's getting insecure over her [[OldMaid Christmas Cake]] status and either made up a boyfriend and named him after her IS (Shirokishi) or, worse case, actually has a CargoShip with said IS.
14* HouseHusband: Shirou. He stays home and takes care of the house and meals, while Chifuyu works as a homeroom teacher at IS academy. The title ''alone'' should be a good hint.
15* LastGirlWins: Chifuyu surely has, seeing how Saber, Rin and Sakura didn't. Chapter 4 shows that Rin was quite bitter when Shirou asked her to be witness to his marriage.
16* MisplacedRetribution: Laura violently attacks Ichika when she believes its because of him that Chifuyu has become more domesticated, not knowing it was more due to her husband Shirou.
17* TheMissusAndTheEx: Chifuyu had met with Rin in the past and the two had a somewhat cordial discussion.
18* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: [[spoiler:Taiga's daughter Alex is named after Alexander the Great. This is because her father is Waver, Iskandar's master]].
19* NoodleIncident: Apparently Taiga met Waver Velvet at some point in the past, [[spoiler:and ended up marrying him and baring him a daughter]].
20* OnlySaneMan: Shirou has become this, often being the only one not affected by the general oddity of the IS world. Ichika has lost this ''because'' of Shirou's presence, though, as his lack of interaction with Chifuyu has made him draw bizarre conclusions about her love life.
21* RomanticRunnerUp: The only time we've seen Rin so far, in a flashback where Shirou asked her to be witness to his and Chifuyu's marriage, shows that she's quite bitter over Shirou finding love with someone else.
