Detour time! Even if it leads them further than needed
Arima knows what hes doing by letting Ken get recruited and Hide stay in CCG right? Nothing bad has happened aside from an unknown amnesia
I dont know the manga that well to tell if Hide was part of it or not
I might have to pull a white head parent with a parent of a different hairstyle for the adoption confusion. White hair and grey eyes...was Donovan but what if I go white haired mom? Who to be dad though? oh boy...family trees are brain teasing when conjuring up dead cycle 2 parents
"Can we have our coffees and some human?" wonders Hide clone.
"No and no. We're closed." says Touka.
"We're friends." says Hide clone.
"Friends dont drag ghouls into enemy territory." says Touka.
"Amon came at the wrong time!" says Hide clone.
"Excuses." mutters Touka.
"Can you look after Haise for a bit? It'll be quick." says Ken 1 setting Haise in a chair.
"Im not a babysitter." mutters Touka.
"You wont see us ever again." says Ken 1.
"I feel sorry for the stretched clothes Hide has to wear without tearing them. You'll be fine." says Touka.
"Bright clothes dont scream night creature." ponders Ken 1.
"My house should be close by! My hero clothes arent kimonos and hoodies come close to hiding the stomach." mumbles Hide clone.
"The more time you waste, it gets easier to suspect treachery." says Touka looking at the sleeping boy.
"If worst comes to worst, we head to my place or break into a tailor shop." says Ken 1.
"Good thinking! Not really." says Touka.
"Lets go before you pass out yourself." grumbles Ken 1 leading Hide clone out of Anteiku.
By daybreak, the parents were too tired to remember if they stole from stores or not with how happy they were to find clothes as a temporary fix to their ghoul attire plight. Ken 1 expected these kinds of clothing choices from Yuki and Yuno's browsing. Have they gone shopping for them before Haise came into their lives? Doesnt matter. Well, it does yet doesnt considering how long Hide was missing while Ken 1 was Centipede pov.
They didnt find any tailor shops in wards 1 and 2 that they could recall so turning to Yuki and Yuno felt fishy yet they were the only ones with clothes that havent been worn yet for Hide and himself. With Hide having hair as long as Tiger King(maybe longer now), Hide was given a yellow tshirt with a giant smiley face on it that looked stenciled on without the circle, yellow/grey comfort fit earphones for his cell phone music, a yellow and black tie dye pullover hoodie, lightweight green sweatpants with elastic pockets and white and orange sneakers that appeared to be tennis shoes that were breathable and non-slip. Ken was happy to be in his Aru Akise wear;the tieless dress shirt with the design on one side of the shirt leading to the sleeve, the plain black tie he had to get separately, couldnt remember if black or dark grey for the waist expandable dress pants and black loafer shoes. What were with the clothes was a feminine version of Allen Walker's hooded cloak that zipped up the front with a tailcoat in the back that was behind the legs and had white lightning on the back of the tailcoat, chest area and hood and white gloves.
"If they wanted us to match, Yuno and Yuki didnt think of your current weight at the time." says Ken 1 yawning.
"Hoodies wouldnt help me at this point." says Hide clone yawning.
"What do we tell Marude, Amon, Akira, Arima and the females? We couldnt sleep with our ghoul sides wanting out? That goes for me more than you." says Ken 1 tiredly chuckling.
"We were giving my wings some late night training." says Hide clone.
"Is Anteiku locked?" wonders Ken 1 eyes widening.
"I would think so if the shop isnt open. Touka needs her sleep too." says Hide clone.
"Safe to say my outfit fits the skeletal mask. That outfit...works for nightly patrols but not the sun mask." says Ken 1.
"We are supposed to do things together. Check out ghoul spots and such as ghouls stalking prey." says Hide clone.
"Yeah but that makes more sense if we were still in school. If we use the abandoned school would it count as home schooling? It'll only be us per subject." says Ken 1.
"Noone knows why it was abandoned but to use the school for only Haise sounds lonely." says Hide clone.
Anteiku...
Living Area...
Haise woke up to being in a new room; Ken 2's living quarters.
"Mommy? Zombie daddy?" wonders Haise looking around.
Shelves with books, a bed, dresser, it looked like Ken 1 and Ken 2's bedrooms in the apartments. But why was he in a one bedroom space? The smell of coffee beans filled his nose indicating someone was downstairs. Haise didnt know anyone here. Maybe his parents did if they had to change plans up.
There were faint footsteps coming toward the room and within minutes Touka entered the room with a small plastic cup of black coffee with a lid and straw.
"You're to young for coffee mugs." says Touka.
"Thank you?" wonders Haise staring at the barista lady.
Getting a good look at the tyke, he did have Whitey's white hairstyle except Whitey had taupe eyes and Ken 2 had-Ken 2 was Ken 1 but black head, she didnt pay much attention to his eyes. This boy's big eyes were grey. Ken 1 said this kid was his kid version so did Whitey and Ken 2 wear this outfit as kids around chubby bunny?
How did this kid have grey eyes if he matches whitey's genetics? That makes no sense. Did Ken 2 have black, grey or brown eyes? If Ken 2 had grey eyes itd make somewhat sense.
"Do I look weird?" wonders Haise.
"Just stunned by your grey eyes when Whitey-Ken 1 has taupe eyes and chubby bunny-Hide has brown eyes." says Touka.
"You know mommy and zombie daddy?" wonders Haise.
"More zombie daddy than male mommy." says Touka, "When black haired Ken disappeared and Hide was human he'd bug me while Hinami chuckled if she was within sight. Always eating our pastries with hot chocolate, rarely coffee."
"Uncle Ken 2! He and mommy always read to me." says Haise.
"Thats..great." says Touka.
If anything, the white reaper had grey eyes and if Arima had grey eyes thatd conclude in Haise having grey eyes. No, the child gets the eye color of one of the parents and he was adopted so she shouldnt let it loom over her.
"Guess you dont know your parents-actual parents. Grey eyes are as rare as white hair." says Touka reverting her gaze.
"Actual parents?" wonders Haise confused.
"Yeah, one parent has grey eyes and the other has a different color eyes. One parent has white hair and the other has a different colored hair." says Touka uneasily, "Mommies are normally female not male. You either get genes from female mommy or male daddy."
"Female mommy huh? Mommy has white hair." says Haise.
"No, thats Kenny mommy not actual mommy." says Touka.
"Mommy has white hair so female mommy must have white hair." says Haise.
"What about actual daddy?" wonders Touka.
"I dont know. Maybe my parents were similar to mommy's parents but I was to little to remember. I know Pinky grandma and black haired grandpa so maybe actual daddy was a black head. Not many hair colors for other kids' parents." says Haise.
"Do you know any kids?" wonders Touka.
Haise shook his head.
From a 5 year olds mind, if Haise is icy blue winged one parent would have blue wings so Ukaku is a major want if the ukaku user was a white head female for him to call Ken 1 mommy. But that leaves the actual dad; was he a bikaku user giving Haise a tail or a rinkaku user like mommy Kenny? The other would have black/dark grey bikaku or rinkaku. Bikaku worked best when dualing with Ukaku and he wasnt old enough to understand kagune duality when ghoul parents were around before death do they part. He never saw his kagune burst out so he could only base things off assumptions.
"You think ukaku mommy and bikaku daddy? If you can show me yours, I can show you mine." says Touka trying to be comforting.
"What kagune do you have?" wonders Haise.
"Mine are butterfly wings." says Touka.
"Butterfly wings?" wonders Haise remembering Hide clone and Ken 1 mentioning a aunt they couldnt be with that had butterfly wings or so they appeared.
"Are you aunt Touka? Uncle Ken 2 is getting moody and frowns more than usual. Hed have you if bully doves werent involved." says Haise saddening.
"Me in CCG? No way!" says Touka frowning.
"Is there a place we can use kagune? You show me yours and I try to mimic it?" says Haise curiously.
"Uhhhhhh...mommy Ken and daddy Hide should be here any minute." says Touka wishing for a knock on the door.
"You dont think actual daddy was blonde like Hide?" wonders Touka.
"If Im most like uncle and mommy, actual parents have to be white hair and black hair. What ghouls are blonde?" says Haise.
"You're basing it off mommy Ken and uncle Ken?" wonders Touka.
"It would be weird spotting a blonde ghoul loving a white haired ghoul. Mommy and Zombie daddy are fine to love eachother." says Haise pondering.
"Dont think to hard kid." says Touka reverting her eyes annoyed, "Are there blonde ghouls? Id remember if I saw some."
"Shark bro looks blondish so what hair colors is he into?" wonders Haise.
"I met him once so dunno. Uncle Ken was squirming while he and the bluette asked about his life. Bluette was teasing him about game logic vs reality; Hide pov vs Ken pov. That was until I added to the conversation." says Touka.
"Know your favorite part of the body?" wonders Touka curiously.
"Mommy likes thigh meat bestest, uncle...I think likes the same as mommy, zombie daddy gets arms or legs but he talks about his stomach to much. Do human stomachs taste good? Mine gets cut up so dunno my favorite parts." says Haise.
"Forget I asked then." says Touka.
"WHERE ARE THOSE MORONS!?" thinks Touka eye twitching.
