    Summary

      

    Suguru flinched as if he’d been physically slapped. The air leaving his lungs in a sharp, pained hiss, but Megumi was far from finished. He stepped forward, his chest heaving, his face contorted into something unrecognizable.

    "YOU’RE A COWARD WHO HIDES BEHIND HIS FAME BECAUSE YOU’RE TOO AFRAID TO BE A REAL FATHER—"

    He never finished that sentence.     

     SLAM

    The dining table groaned under the force. Satoru, who had been sitting in silence peeling a pear, had his palm flat against the wood. The small paring knife skidded across the grain and clattered onto the marble floor, the ringing metal the only sound in the sudden vacuum of the room.

    "You do not talk to my husband like that."

    OR

    Megumi says exactly what it takes to make Suguru flinch, and now he has to figure out how to bridge the gap before the silence becomes permanent

    Summary

    Atsushi loves his siblings.

    He loves his Father.

    He loves Grace Field House.

    Even if they’re not related by blood, even if there will come a time where they will be separated as they’re adopted, this orphanage was a home to Atsushi. It’s hard for him to ever imagine leaving.

    All it takes is a forgotten doll, a late night mission, and a horrifying truth to shatter that.

    Update: Hey, so I updated this to change a few things, as well as fixing some formatting issues I had with the first few chapters, and spelling/grammar mistakes (I probably didn’t get all of those, unfortunately.) Just wanted to polish this up before Part Two gets released, which is coming soon. Hopefully this will make for a better read now that those issues are fixed!

    Summary

    There's a perfect spot right behind Illuga's home where a couple could be up to no good and none would be the wiser of what's happening.

    But only if Illuga manages to keep quiet.

    Summary

    "A contract?” said Venti, “Did you just lock me, god of wind and freedom, into a contract?”

    Somewhere between the first glass of wine and the last, between a solemn oath and an offering to a god, Venti gets bound in a contract to protect and care for the last of Alberich line. Sure 1000 years ago Venessa had banned him from babysitting, but he can handle this freshly traumatized seven year old.

    Crepus would beg to differ. He takes one look at this “irresponsible alcoholic teenager” playing parent and decides he needs to step in.

     

    OR: Papa Alberich gets lost and ends up leaving Kaeya with a friendly bard instead of at the winery. Venti adopts Kaeya…and Crepus adopts them both.

    OR: The Anemo Archon, a Khaenri’ahn spy, and a Fatui Harbringer all think they have figured out what is going on but they are all playing very different games.
