1, 2, 3, A, B, C and E with RyuuSusa, Barok/OC and BaroRyuu (sorry if it’s too much :’D)

Ohhh these are all really interesting!! I am HYPED RYUUSUSA 1- Who do the kids enjoy playing with the most? Let's be real, it would be Ryuu, I think he would be very easy going and would easily learn to just go with the flow when the game changes, just like court with with lower stakes XD 2- Who gets carried away with the baby proofing? Also Ryuu, but when it comes to making sure the Ryutaro doesn't get sick solely because of his own fear regarding the doctor, he WILL make that kid an absolute unit with winter clothing XD 3- Who does the baby follow around more? Susato!! Ryutaro loves her singing voice and he is her shadow! And the best helper with any household chore <3 A- Who do they think their child takes after? In what ways do they remind them of each other? Susato thinks Ryutaro is the spitting image of Ryuu, but he definitely takes after her personality in that he's more quiet and contemplative. Ryuu sees so much of Susato's facial expressions in Ryutaro, like he smiles just like she does, pouts just like she does, laugh like she does. In terms of personality, he definitely takes after Susato's curiosity, but he's proud to say that Ryutaro is quick with tongue-twisters B- What was their first night as new parents like? EXHAUSTING!! I hc that Ryutaro was a weirdly big baby, like 10lbs, similar to Marie Kondo and her huge baby lol!! Luckily Ryutaro was chill, so they did have a MUCH NEEDED good night's rest (Especially poor Susato!) C- Did their relationship change once they became parents? How? I think they both had to be a bit more grounded, especially in terms of taking on cases as needed. I think that the Naruhodou Legal Consulting Agency was well established by the time Ryutaro comes around, so there were some junior attorneys to help take on the cases for Ryuu and in the end I hc that Susato later becomes a professor at Yumei They definitely lost some personal them time because of having a kid, but I think they do still lean on each other as a support whenever they need it. I think they had a good dynamic long before they had a kid, so there wasn't that dramatic of a change, it was something they were prepared for E- Are they honest with their children? Are there certain things they try to shield from them? Susato is very forthright with Ryutaro, she will not hide things like how Yujin hid things from her. Obviously, she'll not be TOO honest too early, but will try to be as honest as she could be. She doesn't want Ryutaro to ever be as blindsided as she was. Ryuu is allergic to keeping secrets, and even Ryutaro can read his thoughts like everyone else can, man wears his heart on his sleeve XD I think they both do try to keep the stranger details of the London trip as brief as possible until Ryutaro is old enough to really understand the craziness of it all!

BAROK x REBECCA 1- Who do the kids enjoy playing with the most? Definitely Rebecca, she's the fun parent, and she will teach Everett Ballet XD 2- Who gets carried away with the baby proofing? Barok, man just reeks of overprotectiveness (and who can blame him after what he went through?) 3- Who does the baby follow around more? Barok, Everett wants to play with the cape, he yearns for naptime under the cape, and also he is TALL!! A- Who do they think their child takes after? In what ways do they remind them of each other? Barok definitely sees Rebecca in him, not only do they both have blue hair, but Everett definitely is just as mischievous as Rebecca is, and they have the same smile. To Barok, Everett is just a mini Rebecca Rebecca on the other hand, insists that Everett is a mini Barok clone, like he looks JUST like Baby Barok Does in the concept art, he is the next Little Darling, they both snore, AND she notices that Everett is trying to learn the leg thing XD B- What was their first night as new parents like? Definitely emotionally exhausting due to the fact that Everett was born on the anniversary of Barok being declared Not Guilty. He also was a bit touch and go since he was breach, but after some careful care, he was stabilized <3 C- Did their relationship change once they became parents? How? Barok finally learned to open up and be more honest with his feelings while Rebecca became a bit less flighty. Barok also helped support Rebecca since while she had already retired from ballet, it was essentially a permanent retirement due to how rough the birth was. While in the beginning, Rebecca did a lot of the work being a support for Barok (especially when the strife did cause their estrangement shortly post Professor murders), he finally stepped up and started to put in the same effort after seeing first hand the emotional turmoil Rebecca was going through E- Are they honest with their children? Are there certain things they try to shield from them? Rebecca does try to be as honest as she can, she does try to shield the truth about the whole Backstory for as long as she can, since it is such a tragic and heartbreaking story As for Barok, he would also like to shield Everett, especially with how often Barok himself got attacked. While I don't think it would be as blatant in to the early 20th century, especially after the truth of the Reaper was revealed, he was honest in the fact that there are people who do not like him, and that sometimes they might try to hurt him, but he will protect Everett no matter what <3

BARORYUU* *I don't have a specific fankid for these two (yet, because honestly, you know me XD), but this is a good experiment! 1- Who do the kids enjoy playing with the most? Also Ryuu! He's just a very fun guy, and I can't blame the kiddo!! 2- Who gets carried away with the baby proofing? DEFINITELY BAROK!! Big old London manors have a lot stairs and such...!! Perhaps this is a good reason to move to Japan....XD Though I think Ryuu is also super ultraprotective to his own extent... see the previous wintertime anecdote XD 3- Who does the baby follow around more? Probably Barok, due to virtue of the cape and him being TALL (the kiddo wants to feel tall <3) A- Who do they think their child takes after? In what ways do they remind them of each other? Well, I don't have a specific fankid, so I think this one would be really difficult to answer rip XD B- What was their first night as new parents like? So while I don't have a fankid, I can easily see Ryuu finding a lost orphan in the streets, whether they're a baby or a toddler or a kid, I think he would feel absolutely worried and sorry for the kiddo, he wouldn't leave them behind. So while it's definitely a huge shock to see Ryuu coming back with a whole ass child, Barok does understand why Ryuu wouldn't leave the poor kid behind <3 C- Did their relationship change once they became parents? How? I think Barok really realizes how mature Ryuu truly is, and realize how truly stable of a person he is as well. I think he really would want to emulate that as well. Ryuu, on the other hand, realizes how much of a big softie Barok really is and also demands the right to cuddle XD E- Are they honest with their children? Are there certain things they try to shield from them? Ryuu understands that no matter what, if one is determined, they will find the truth, so he will be as forthright as he can, to the best of his abilities. As for Barok, he seems like he would keep his past mum, giving the most bare minimum answers, it's not something he likes to reminisce about
