Problem being that Donny requires that little thing people absolutely despise known as EFFORT since he seems to end up rather good and his kid ends up with awesome growths maybe. Yeah.
I think this just about sums up every underdog character in FE. It's always been about who's growths are the 1337 and who does what best. If you have to baby a character a bit to get them up to speed? Holy ****, toss that trash to the side.
Donny just seems like a baby unit for the point of babying. . . I mean, he's ok, but that's it. . . his kids are alright, but I'm not much for the whole eugenics thing either.

Here's yet another conversation between two extremes; this time it's the aristocrat and the bumpkin. Mariabel x Donny, everyone!
Spoiler - Mariabel x Donny C
Mariabel: Hold on a minute, what is this? To think that someone put their luggage here!
Donny: Ah! I, Ah'm sorry! That, That's my luggage.
Mariabel: Oh, Mr. Donny. Please do be careful. This passage is used for emergencies.
Donny: I, A see. I'm really sorry. I, Ah'm just a bumpkin, so I don't understand thin's like that at all.
Mariabel: Is that so... I understand. I shall be teaching you several things from now on.
Donny: Eh...?
Mariabel: Let us first start by taking an in-depth look at the laws and conventions of Iris. I will lend you this book so please memorize it from start to finish.
Donny: T, that's a really thick book...
Mariabel: This is a book that details all the laws of Iris. As such, this thickness is to be expected.
Donny: Umm... Ah have to remember all of it?
Mariabel: That's right. Is there some sort of problem with that? Diligence is the most important virtue to have. For the sake of your development and growth, do try to learn it properly. Ah, this book is an important gift that my father has given me so please use it with the utmost care.
Donny: I, Ah understand.
Spoiler - Mariabel x Donny B
Mariabel: Mr. Donny. Have you made any progress with the book?
Donny: Ah, yeah. Ah've memorized the book you lent me.
Mariabel: That's quite a lie. Even I have yet to completely memorize it.
Donny: Ah really did. I, Ah'm pretty good at rememberin' stuff.
Mariabel: Very well, then do try to answer some questions about it. For starters, let's see... In the first chapter, the third clause of the fourth paragraph. What is the punishment for...
Donny: In that case... it's hard labour for no less than a year and no more than ten.
Mariabel: That, that's absolutely correct... Did you really memorize all of it?
Donny: Yup. Ah spent all my free time tryin' ta study this book.
Mariabel: All of your free time...?
Donny: Miss Mariabel's been kind enough ta lend someone like me such an important book. So ah hafta do my part too.
Mariabel: Is that so... I honestly never thought you'd handle this matter with such earnestness. I've changed my mind. I shall do my utmost in order to make sure that you grow into a fine gentleman, Mr. Donny.
Donny: Huh... A, a gentleman? Somethin' like that is a little...?
Mariabel: Alright, let's do our best!
Spoiler - Mariabel x Donny A
Mariabel: Now, firmly support my lower back. One step with your right leg, then two with your left. Ah, Ow!
Donny: S, sorry! Ah've gone and stepped on your foot again...
Mariabel: It would seem that your memory is not very good with things other than studying.
Donny: Ah know the movements. But whenever I try dancing with Miss Mariabel, Ah just get all nervous...
Mariabel: C, could you please not concern yourself with such weird nerves? ... All of a sudden, I'm getting nervous too.
Donny: Ain't no way that'd be true. You can' be embarrassed 'bout a guy like me. Ah mean, Miss Mariabel is so pretty and beautiful and gorgeous after all.
Mariabel: ... All of them have the exact same meaning, you know.
Donny: Ah, even gettin' praised by someone like me must be a real nuisance to ya...
Mariabel: That is most certainly not the case. In my opinion, you are a very hardworking and respectable person.
Donny: R, really?
Mariabel: Yes. Well, now that we have both complimented one another, shall we continue the dance?
Donny: ...Oh, it were a joke.
Mariabel: No, it wasn't. However, for some reason, I'm no longer nervous.
Donny: Ah, now that ya mention it, me too...
Mariabel: Saying what is on your mind really is quite important.
Donny: Yeah. tha's somethin' to keep in mind.
Mariabel: Well then, let us continue. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3...
Spoiler - Mariabel x Donny S
Donny: Miss Mariabel! This ring, please accept it!
Donny: ...You would use a ring with a fake jewel to make me yours... your own?
Donny: Tha jewel migh' be fake but my feelin's for ya are real!
Donny: Go wash your face and then come back ta me... return to me, would you?
Donny: ............ .... Hmph. Like ah' thought, there's no way. That someone like me could get married ta Miss Mariabel.
Mariabel: ... Ahem.
Donny: M, Miss Mariabel! D, Did ya see me just now!?
Mariabel: ... Your version of me is a rather high-handed and unpleasant woman, Mr. Donny.
Donny: I, Ah didn' mean it like that...
Mariabel: Please show me the ring for a second.
Donny: U, umm.
Mariabel: ...It's beautiful. You were going to give this to me?
Donny: Umm... But this jewel, it's fake.
Mariabel: Whether the jewel is real or not is irrelevant regarding my answer to your marriage proposal.
Donny: Then you'll... really accept it?
Mariabel: Say it once more, and this time, could you properly face me when you say it?
Donny: Wha' do you... Ah! Ah' understand. Ahem. ... Miss Mariabel. It would be my great honor to marry you.
Mariabel: ... I gladly accept.
Donny: Umm, this is... it ain't a dream, is it?
Mariabel: *Chuckles*... Well now, I wonder. But, if it really is a dream, let us never wake from it.
Reminds me of Calill and Nephenee from Path of Radiance, excluding the fact that Calill is outed to have grown up as a country bumpkin, something that Mariabell is not. Anyone else get that vibe?

I didn't even know Callil was from the boonies.
Then again I only used her like twice since Ilyana exists.
I'd be giddy as a schoolgirl if someone could translate MaleMU x Grego. I'm not that desperate to read it, so if anyone can just add it to their to-do list as lowest priority I'd be grateful.
I found Donny fun to use, but he's not remotely good on any standard that doesn't allow you to trivialize the game.
Sorry, I found this a tad confusing. Are you saying that he's not good because he allows you to trivialise the game? Or that he's not good enough to allow you to trivialise the game? Or that on higher difficulties, he's not good at all?
Also, I can't help but notice that we have essentially no parent/child supports between Mark and a Second Gen Character. Are the parent/child supports different to the normal supports, or do they simply cut off at A Rank? Or are they all identical to the Mark support with Krom, barring a few minor differences?

Time to be giddy, my friend. I must admit, this support was completely different from what I had expected. Without further ado, Rufure x Grego!
EDIT: Wow, it's almost identical to Grego's support with FeMU. That was disappointing but I suppose such a hilarious conversation deserves to be repeated.
Spoiler - Rufure x Grego C
Grego: Here, Rufure. Drink this.
Rufure: Huh? What's this?
Grego: This is a medicine I often use on my travels. It's a little bitter though so bear with it.
Rufure: A medicine... There's nothing wrong with me, you know?
Grego: Really now? So your throat isn't bothering you at all?
Rufure: Ye... Ah, come to think of it, it has been itching for a while...
Grego: I thought as much. Your breathing was a little off during the last fight.
Rufure: Eh? You can even notice the breathing patterns of others...? That's amazing.
Grego: I'm only this focused on health. After all, a mercenary's body is his most important tool.
Rufure: So taking care of your body is also part of the job. I have to follow your example too... What stuff do you normally watch out for, Grego?
Grego: Gargling, washing your hands, and keeping your body warm. Those three are the basic principles.
Rufure: Eh... That's unexpectedly common. Isn't there some sort of secret method or something?
Grego: A secret method... well, I suppose there is. It something that only men can do. You're a man so if you want to do it...
Rufure: ...Um, I think I'd rather not hear it actually.
Grego: Ah, one more thing. I also know a really good secret for sleeping together. [T/N: Yes, he is talking about that kind of sleeping together. Are we sure that Awakening doesn't have Yuri or Yaoi pairings?]
Rufure: Come again? What are you saying!
Grego: Haha, relax a little.
Rufure: I won't!
Spoiler - Rufure x Grego B
Rufure: Grego. Thanks for that medicine. My fever had really gone up that night but it had dropped by morning.
Grego: Did you get any weird dreams or hallucinations because of your fever?
Rufure: Ugh...
Grego: Hm~mm, what are you blushing about all of a sudden? Did you see the two of us sleeping together?
Rufure: We weren't sleeping together, no... I dreamt that I was sleeping with my head in your lap... What an unthinkable nightmare...!
Grego: Ah, I see. So that's why your heart skipped a beat when you saw my face.
Rufure: ...Ever since then, I was too scared to go to bed and didn't get a wink of sleep. Even if it's a joke, please stop saying things like that... Here, look. Because I didn't get enough sleep, my eyes have gone red.
Grego: Hmm, even though I would think it'd be great that your dreams start off with finding love.
Rufure: Yes, yes, that's very funny. Ugh... I'm starting to get shivers down my spine.
Grego: ? Hey, Rufure. Show me your eyes for a sec.
Rufure: H, hey, I'll really get upset, Grego, alright?
Grego: Quiet!
Rufure: !!
Grego: That blood congestion... shivers down the spine... Were you bitten by an insect recently?
Rufure: I... think so.
Grego: You were probably bitten by a bug carrying a nasty disease. Let's go. If we don't get this treated right away, your life will be in danger.
Rufure: Ah... y, yes... Thank you...
Spoiler - Rufure x Grego A
Grego: Rufure. How are you doing?
Rufure: Ah, Grego. I'm much better now, thanks to you. Krom's personal physician says that it would have been much worse if you hadn't treated me. I owe you my life, Grego.
Grego: Sometimes it's better to listen obediently to your elders. You might be a prodigy but there's still plenty that you don't know. Learn as much as you can from the elderly. At least until you're no longer such a greenhorn.
Rufure: That's certainly true. Sorry for how I treated you at the time.
Grego: Don't sweat it. But...
Rufure: Is something wrong?
Grego: Did you dream that you were sleeping on my lap again?
Rufure: Ah, now that you mention it, I don't remember seeing it anymore after that. Why do you ask?
Grego: Oh, it's nothing. I just thought that I should get an appearance fee if I have to keep popping up in your dreams!
Rufure: Wha...! What the heck! No need to worry; I won't be seeing that nightmare any more!
Grego: Haha, that's the spirit. Well, if you don't wanna see that nightmare again, then you'd better look after your health. If you do happen to collapse, I might have to really hold your head in my lap, you know?
Rufure: ...Eeeee! I, I'll definitely take care of myself!
Also, I can't help but notice that we have essentially no parent/child supports between Mark and a Second Gen Character. Are the parent/child supports different to the normal supports, or do they simply cut off at A Rank? Or are they all identical to the Mark support with Krom, barring a few minor differences?
I actually can't find any parent-child supports between Mark and a second gen character. But since I know that when a second gen character is a sibling of Mark, their conversation is that of a set sibling support for Mark, not a modified version of their "standard" support. So I can guess that the parent-child relationship takes the support of Mark's set parent-child support. And just as a note, Mark's parent-child supports are the same regardless of gender. Mark's support with MU is always the same, and Mark's support with his/her other parent is always the same.
...If that's not too confusing. XD

If you don't grind, he's just really bad. If you grind, he can destroy everything, but so can everyone, so who cares?

...So he basically get's an adjusted version of the same support for every parent? Other than MU, obviously.
So far, yes. I checked Female Mark's parent supports with Liz and Tiamo which turned out to be almost exactly the same as Male Mark's parent conversation with Krom. As for Mark's parent supports with the second generation, we still don't have any of their conversations to verify it with.

As far as I've seen, there doesn't look to be any transcripts of 2nd-gen parents either, at least from the Japanese websites. Guess we'll have to wait a while on that.
Time to be giddy, my friend. I must admit, this support was completely different from what I had expected. Without further ado, Rufure x Grego!

Gahhhhhh~. I spoiled it for myself. /crywhine Dramatic jests aside, the support was hilarious. I was half "WTF?" and half "That's... Strangely endearing. I think?"
EDIT: Come to think of it, isn't this the kind of thing they censor when games are translated for NA? It saddens me to think that the NA version of this support might not be nearly this amusing.
But in all seriousness, I think Greg's definitely earned a permanent spot on my roster. He's just too much awesome. I actually see him having a voice similar to Malik's from ToG. He's got that same "suave troll" feel going on, and I love it.
geez That whole I'm afraid to sleep now crap was stupid. Other than that Grego is a bro but MU continue to be hit or miss.
I still wanna read Grego and Nono's support. /hinthintnudgenudge
Sorry I haven't been more support-translate-y. I've been busy with getting my loan for school... However, GregoNono and GregoRonku (which is almost complete) are at the top of my list.
The reason Grego/Ronku went up was due to a very big secret revealed about Grego. Let's just say another member of the crew and him go waaaay back...
