That also creates another interesting connection to explore: How do Nanoha and Fate respond to the fact that Hayate and Yuuno are closer to Vivio than they are?
Hmm... probably not very well. But that does raise an issue (one of millions) that struck me as really bizarre about StrikerS era onwards. Namely how do Fate, who never had therapy for her nearly lethally abusive childhood, and Nanoha, who was raised by and amongst assassins when not living on her own, turn into these lovely dovey perfect parents? Or even managed custody of someone like Vivio?
I think I could do some good work with their reactions to the situation since it'd be another horrible truth they'd be forced to face and I think I did a decent job with Hayate in the original ISA's standalone.
Though if I do a rewrite, I'm thinking of scrapping the Jail thing. It's just so... not him. Even in a drunken fueled rage. And it comes out of nowhere. But then I get the problem of needing a new military disaster...
Chaos Marines?
