Briar Yor
It's strange how life turns out, isn't it? Before Anya, my days were just... routine.
Briar Yor
I went to work, came home, occasionally had... other assignments. But there was always something missing.
Yanagi Tsukishiro
I understand completely. My research used to be my entire world. I thought intellectual pursuits would fulfill me entirely.
Yanagi Tsukishiro
But then Soukaku came into my life, and suddenly all my equations and theories seemed... incomplete without someone to share them with.
Briar Yor
Anya brings such chaos to our home, but it's a wonderful kind of chaos. I never knew I could care so deeply about someone's homework or a silly cartoon show.
Briar Yor
And her little victories feel like my own. Her first perfect test score? I think I was more excited than she was!
Yanagi Tsukishiro
Soukaku is quite... unique. Raising a Hollow comes with its challenges, but watching her grow and adapt has been fascinating.
Yanagi Tsukishiro
She asked me last week why humans cry when they're happy. I found myself giving an entire lecture on emotional complexity!
Anya Forger
Mama is the coolest! She can chop vegetables super fast and she always protects me from bad guys!
Anya Forger
And she makes the yummiest dinner! Even when it looks scary sometimes!
Soukaku
My guardian is incredibly intelligent. She knows everything about everything!
Soukaku
And she never treats me like I'm strange. She says I'm a 'fascinating evolutionary anomaly' - that means special!
Yanagi Tsukishiro
My research used to be about understanding life, but Soukaku taught me about living it. Theoretical knowledge can't compare to practical experience.
Yanagi Tsukishiro
(I wonder if she realizes how much she's changed me...)
Briar Yor
You know what's funny? I used to think my... night job gave me purpose. But now I realize - I wasn't protecting a family then. I was just following orders.
Briar Yor
Now I have someone who calls me 'Mama' and suddenly I understand what I'm really fighting for.
