How do you think Mana/the Earl would react to learning Lavi want to be his cute-little-son-Allen's boyfriend ? Would he just find it cute and encourage it or would he smile threateningly and casually scare the living daylights of Lavi just in case ?

okay ngl i’m getting so many meta-ish possible-theories of what would happen that I completely forgot for two seconds that AUs/HCs exist and I had a major whiplash doing “wait i missed a chapter that would change my whole life” for a solid second oh my god thank you nonny

and in general i guess, Lavi would probably be shady enough for Mana to be protective, just to different scales depending on how and why. I’ll get in depth about that. Lavi can somewhat make people uncomfortable, don’t know if you can trust him with your son’s heart, so y’know, stuff to be warry about. And I think Mana/Earl would consider it.

NOW onto the details of HOW

aNYWAY so. so. So that’s a problem of the Earl/Mana. Let’s picture three scenarios possible depending on which Earl we’re talking about.

So first, Mana Walker. Allen’s adoptive father. Would he still remain the same as we know him (say, meeting Lavi as a kid AU, or perhaps as an internal voice in Allen’s head, or just in more casual AUs where he’s alive) I can totally see him as an overprotective father who still would respect his son’s choices. Not too trusting of Lavi in general, probably nudging the conversation to Allen about being careful but Allen being stubborn, but, y’know, not getting his nose where it doesn’t belong. Letting Allen deal with it. (and if casual AUs let’s say Allen had enough help from Uncle Cross to at least be sure that Allen can handle himself on Allen’s own term if things go sour, so Dad’s gonna be the emotional support but will let the son handle himself otherwise.). Meanwhile Mana would probably try to befriend Lavi and be cheerful with him! If he’s gonna be your son-in-law, he’ll treat him like a son! even if he’s shady! Gotta make him feel welcomed in the family! And meanwhile always being a support for Allen to open his heart to.So I say, supportive mindful Dad who don’t get too much in the way.

Then The Earl as he currently is. With a very torn opinion on Allen considering he wants to adopt Allen for Nea (forcefully adopting your ex-adoptive son in order to adopt your brother who’s also You is one of the most hilarious thing about this manga), but eehhh let’s picture a scenario in which the Earl doesn’t actively force Nea out for whatever reasons but still keep Allen around as a son (to Allen’s greatest dismay).

Without entering into “Allen knowing the Earl is his father”, i think the Earl would be muuuch more reculent to Lavi being around because this would be someone who could take his son away and that’s not something he’s very found of. If we get the Earl to treat Allen like he treats the rest of the Noah, i’m pretty sure he would let it be, like casually bring up “you know your boyfriend is a dirty liar right? ❤” “Still lies better than Tyki at Poker.” “Was. Not involved in the conversation, thanks Shounen.”

Still thinking that the worst part would be the outsider factor, making sure Allen doesn’t slip away again. Perhaps would oppose to the relationship for a time unless he believes that at least it could stop Allen from running away from the family.

Would see him get dirty with Lavi though. Like casually threatening him, y’know, not to challenge the family’s equilibrium, totally not because he ended up caring for the vessell of his brother, that would be utterly ridiculous. “Erg, Allen, I think… I think your “father” wants to make me a cake.” “Well, that’s great isn’t it? You’d share a piece right?” “No- I mean, He wants to make me a cake. As in, into a cake.” “Ah. I’d still get a piece though rig- Alright alright don’t look at me like that I’ll tell him to stop don’t panic i’m joking.”

A version of The Current Earl who Would Remember Being Mana Walker (so say, a future version where the memories came back and all), would be a Earl that cares 100% for Allen. And I should have thought my process through bc he’ll just be Earl!Dad but in worse. Like in even more openly caring for Allen. And he wouldn’t have had to lowkey be blackmailing Allen to have him stay around.

Let’s go wild, after all, Allen finding back his father figure might at least justify y’know, spending in the family dinner and trying to convince your dad not to destroy the world around a turkey and obviously bringing his boyfriend to the parties because sometimes that’s what avoid some fights between the family, just like you can avoid your controversial uncle from voicing an opinion at dinner by bringing your controversial boyfriend along who is not recording all of that for his clan. (Nothing avoids controversial topic like having a living recorder to rat it out)

(okay no trying to picture that I just had the picture of saying, Allen leaving Lavi at the table for a minute bc he’s chasing after Road or the twins or something, so Lavi is alone at the table with his now in-laws family and he’s. Just. Nervously smiling, stiff. And going. “…. so. Humanity. Sucks right?” to try to make small talks waiting for his boyfriend to come back and i can’t stop thinking about it)

Anyway there I think the Earl would try less to push Lavi away because just like Mana, his son’s happiness goes before anything! But the sadistic part of him that makes him a Noah, and who mistrust a bit Lavi with the heart of his poor, sweet son, would pull Earl!Dad stuff to lowkey threaten him, usually trying not to get caught doing so by Allen.

I could also see him get faaar more involved in Allen’s life in general (”why don’t you stay in the ark for the holidays with your boyfriend, com’on it would be great❤” “You mean in the room I somewhat got reassigned that is near the Jasdebi’s which is completely incidental to the fact they would be able to make death-pranks on my boyfriend just because they were bored?” “…… ❤💧 I can find you another room.” “Yeah.”).

He would be nudging Allen far more about how inadequate Lavi might be (”You know he said a horrible lie earlier?❤“ “Well you murdered people earlier today I believe you cannot judge.” “Touché.”) But yeah, that would fall flat.

So he would also be trying to emotional support Human!Mana would have done and understand… some of Allen’s bounderies, like if Allen told him to not do something he won’t do it. But it’s funny to freak Lavi out and he will use his Earl’s sadism for that. Just perhaps with less intend to actually hurt than he would have would he just want to make sure Allen gets involved in the family.

But all and all I could see him also do an effort to be on good term with Lavi and listening to Allen’s concerns and feelings, just like Human!Mana would have done.

So basically the further we go down the scale the more we go from “kind and understanding father” to “Oh Allen does his things and he does it well and I will not oppose to it and i will be friendly to his boyfriend but i will freak the hell out of him”, with more or less intensities with how much of a Noah he is and how much he cares about Allen as an individual.

…….. That was ways funnier to imagine than i anticipated :’D hope you like it nonny ;O

Take care!
