[ Souji loves his family - even his negligent parents. But his greatest wish has always been to have a stable childhood, and that's something said negligent parents could never provide.
So this virus has switched his relations with his family around. His parents are still in his life. They're just not his parents. They're his aunt and uncle, with Dojima taking the place of his real father.
Someone who works a lot of overtime but who still lives in the same house - hell, the same city as you - is still a lot better than someone who's spent most of their time half the country away from you.
So, yeah. See a Souji who looks a little younger but also a little gruffer around the edges kicking it back at the breakfast table across from Dojima, complete with his own steaming mug of coffee and a large chunk of the daily paper spread out before him. ]
Hey, dad. Would it be too much trouble if I got an advance on my allowance? There's something I want that's on sale at Okina but only for today.
