...If it also isn't too much to ask... I imagine I'll need a hand keeping an eye on young Iris as well. She's brilliant, mind you. Far smarter than I could ever hope to be. But she is also still a child, and I've not exactly prepared myself for fatherhood. It would put my mind at ease if I knew there were other adults around willing to be there for her.
[Considering how much closer Ryunosuke has grown with Barok van Zieks over recent times, one might expect him to ask the Reaper for aid with this, but uhh. THERE'S A REASON, FOR WHY HE'S NOT GOING THAT ROUTE...]
