I love this idea.
“Kaneki. Eyepatch. One-Eyed King, it suits you,” Amon said awkwardly.
Kaneki shifts. “I see.”
“Haise – I mean, Kaneki – what happened in Cochlea?” Akira crosses her arms. She needs to be a good mother to Haise, so she’ll be a good mother to whomever grows in her belly.
The Rabbit eyes her suspiciously.
Kaneki lowers his gaze. “I can’t speak of that.”
“I need to know. Please. I can’t move forward with you until I know.” Akira swallows. Amon nods his encouragement.
Kaneki looks up. “Arima killed himself.”
Akira can’t believe it, but why would he lie?
“Why are you back if this is so hard for you?” Touka asks.
Amon gulps.
“We need your help.” Akira rubs her stomach. “I’m having a half-ghoul child, Kaneki. Surely you know something about ghoul biology.”
Touka chokes, Amon blushes, and Kaneki squeaks.
“I don’t know.” Kaneki shakes his head. “I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know!”
“We’re in the same position,” Touka says quietly, reaching out a hand to rub Kaneki’s shoulder.
“You’re – pregnant?” Akira gapes at Touka.
Touka nods.
A ripple of kinship spreads between the two women.
“We have to find a way to help them,” Amon says.
Kaneki nods. “Amon, will you help GOAT?”
“Anything,” Amon says, nodding to Akira, who smiles in return.
Her eyes narrow when she looks at Kaneki. “Haise!”
