rating Parahumans guys on how well I think they'd be as parents
Brian: I think Brian would believe he is a great father, but there is too much repressed emotions and depression in there to properly care for and raise a child. 3/10, Not particularly good.
Alec: Alec has lacked a real positive parental unit in his life, and while I don't think he would purposefully be shitty to a kid, I think he might fall back on what he knows from his own youth. Might be a fun older brother though. 3/10, needs to focus on himself first
Danny Hebert: Too sad about his wife dying to properly parent. no further notes. 2/10, Danny please get it together Taylor is relying on you
Armsmaster: Would rub off his worst personality traits onto a kid, resulting in them being the average r/malelivingspace user. Might also encourage child to grow poor facial hair. 1/10, I feel bad for whatever unfortunate soul is consigned to this fate.
Coil: Coil would be an absent father for 90% of your childhood, unless you were useful for his plans. In that case, he would feed you drugs or some other unethical thing and make you work for him (child labor (bad)). 2/10, conditions are poor but you might get to meet some of the other children he has, fixing the playdate situation.
Kaiser: See in story results. -5/10 Nazis don't make good parents.
Uber and Leet: They come as a package deal obviously, and they are actually pretty okay parents, they aren't great obviously but they aren't tremendous failures either. That is until you show up on one of their livestreams and then you are the laughingstock of the school. 4/10 Don't upload your kids online.
Scion: Too sad about his wife dying to properly parent. Also not emotionally available. 1/10, get it together man people are relying on you.
Mark Dallon: Not necessarily a bad parent, but he has a laundry list of problems that he needs to work through before he can begin to think to focus on his kids. 3/10, he's trying by god. He's not doing good but he's trying.
Number Man: He would probably respond to any question his kid asks with some weird philosophical math metaphor. Is a killer cook though. Also math classes would be a breeze. Unfortunately, most of his time is dedicated to cauldron. 5/10, grades will be great.
Accord: The worst type of helicopter parent. He would make itineraries to follow any time his kid went out and would require them home in pristine condition super early. Has a rigorous study schedule and puts a lot of pressure on you to succeed, and you know he wants whats best for you but like its stifling and you aren't really living for you but for him. Sure grades are good but you just can't do it anymore. 4/10, the depression and GPA are soaring.
Jack Slash: As seen in Worm, he is an absolutely killer parent. Has a fun family vibe? check. Engages with his children's interest and allows them to pursue it? check. Keeps his child intellectually and creatively stimulated? check. Takes his family all over the country to see new exciting places and people? check. Dude is simply top tier on the parenting skill. Sure the family dynamic is a bit unorthodox, but when the results look this good can you really argue? 10/10 Jack Slash has got it going on.

" hi, " matteo looked up from her spot on the pew, unsure why she'd even wandered into the church tonight, why she'd hung around for so long now that she was no longer alone. she looked brian over, then paused, " am I-- am I welcome here still? " she asked softly, a small smile tugging on the corners of her lips. @wailingbones

josh was nervous, strangely so. he half expected somebody to deny him the evening if only because he and dakota were still strangers, technically, but everybody seemed to understand that the two men clearly found something in each other, and if it was temporary, at least it was substantial. he paced around outside the farmhouse for a moment before breathing out a sigh and looking to riley, who seemed mostly bemused by her brother's nerves, " let's go in then... "
gabriel was quite pleased to host dinner for the kids, it was an easy way for brian to be seen to be making a true effort too, considering he was staying with gabe for the time being. he was doing his best by dakota these days and gabriel appreciated it. he watched them briefly interact since dakota's arrival and kept out of the way, giving them some time. one by one, his own family had arrived and now they were just waiting on joshua and, more surprisingly, riley, who had opted to arrive with her brother versus matteo.
matteo glanced out of the window when he heard the car pull up but said nothing just yet. he watched joshua nervously walk back and forth through the yard and decided to keep the news of their arrival to himself. evidently, josh needed a minute. matteo, instead, waited patiently for riley to climb out of the car, and for josh to climb the steps before he turned to dakota with a hint of a smile, " they're here. " @moreferarum

@general-kalani:
A wild Brian appears!
The apocalypse has been harsh on him.
"I'll be honest, I didn't figure out the type to live in this shit."
His attitude hasn't changed with the apocalypse at least.
"What?"
Eloquent as always, Castellanos. On the bright side, at least Brian's absolute candour kills any potentially exaggerated emotion Sebastian might have felt at seeing him again after all this time.
"...is that you saying you thought I'd die?"

A thread idea I had: Charlie, wanting to get just a little bit extra help in really getting the Hotel out there and getting patrons in turns to Velvette to help with their social media presence much to the chagrin of her friends.

Everytime Matt talks about Jane as if shes his wife, all i can imagine is Brian Michael Bendis's version of Matt. The way he loves his wife (Milla Donovan<3) in that fucking comic series makes me want to chew hole through my mattress. Im so obsessed with married Matt Murdock and his stupidly in-love brain.
Thank you @pastafossa for giving Matt his wife back
Also thanks for somehow channeling the dd comics vibes perfectly into your writing... seriously how tf did you do that😭?

marisa helped brian up off the floor, ushering him inside with the help of kieran's husband, " don't worry, please, head home, I've got this. " chris didn't seem to care much, but that was no surprise, and disappeared from the front room. the woman brought brian to the sofa, " connor, can you grab me the first aid kit from the kitchen? " she hummed, looking back at brian as his son left them alone, " I'm sorry, I thought I was done apologising on behalf of him. " @scvdycat
