“After me?” Saiko claps her hands to her cheeks. “I am so honored.”
“I’m glad!” Rin beams at her friend. She holds baby Saiko in her arm, and Rio holds baby Haise with one arm and his wife with his other.
“I may be biased, but I think half-ghouls with green hair are especially pretty,” says Eto with a smirk.
“Does that count for Quinxes, too?” Urie elbows Mutsuki.
“Of course.” Eto tosses her minty hair.
Touka rolls her eyes. “You would!”
“You’re okay with Haise? I know not all those memories are pleasant,” Rin says to her brother.
“I’m honored,” Kaneki says with a soft smile.
Suzuya dances over to hug his sister, his niece and nephew. “They’re so tiny.”
“They’re babies,” Rin says with a laugh. “We were all this size once, too.”
Rio smiles as his eyes prick. Because he can imagines brother holding him when he was born. Not knowing what would happen. Disaster. Madness. And Rin – wonderful, wonderful Rin.
“I’m always protect you,” Rio murmurs, brushing his son’s wisps of green hair.
“And I’ll always protect you,” Rin adds, leaning over to kiss Rio on his forehead.
