Heroes and then their enemies. Dark Lords, evil guilds, cults... They all come in different shapes and sizes, don't they?
[The talk about the Lady and her stories, and Unification as well has stirred a sense of nostalgia in Mizuki. An array of children and YA book, the type she and Sara read as a child are spread all over a table. Her own favorites had been the less serious ones wherein the hero and the Demon Lord would somehow end up as companions, be it romantic or otherwise. Sometimes there were misunderstandings, sometimes greater threats, and sometimes both of them still had a lot of growing up to do. And in one case...]
Even ones when the author doesn't realize the hero's worse than any of the villains.
[But then-]
I'll say, but Mizuki, quickly! Make room!
Dad?!? What are you-
Mizuki, please! Oh we were hoping to show you and you even have a table set up but then you had to just cover it up with so many books!
[So says her mother, coming in with a humongous wheelbarrow stuffed with "how to" books and DVDs and audio players about parenting and families in general.]
We got here as soon as we can... and the news... it's just so wonderful! Everyone in Solaris is overjoyed!
News? News about what?
Mizuki... your mother...
I'm pregnant.
She's pregnant! This is huge, this is incredible! We didn't think it would be possibly on account of everything and our origin... and also living on Earth. But it's happening! It's actually happening!
... what...?
We'll finally be able to be proper parents! Raising a child from the very beginning, teaching them to walk, teaching them how to read and write, playing Tooth Fairy for them and schooling... oh there was so much we saw while trying to learn how to raise you that we just weren't able to do because you were too old for it!
And you need to sure you'll be a good big sister to little Zankuro too!
Zan-ku-
Zankuro, dear. He's going to be your little brother; Solaris's doctors were able to confirm that it's going to be a boy! Oh just think of it! We'll have him trying to sneak out after curfew to visit friends and getting in fights and having little childhood crushes! And he'll probably even have a phase where he doesn't want to be seen getting dropped off by us when he's in middle school!
