Soubi x Two + Zero (Yaoi) = a supersized McHAPPY!
Hello hello! Happy 2006! I don't make New Year's resolutions, but if I did it'd be strictly limited to my game (because in it I am GOD... though perhaps a somewhat lesser one than Seimei). And at the very top of that list would be a resolution to be nicer to Soubi.
I mean, poor boy. Last I left him he was in labor (The Beloved christmas special actually occured after the Loveless, but I posted them in a reverse timeline) and all of you... well...
let's do a little recap, shall we?
Soubi had a very strange and vivid dream (or was it?) in which there were two moons and Seimei was unusually kind to him. This left him very confused and feeling out of place the following morning. Didn't help that Seimei showed up for real.
Oh you KNEW it was gonna happen.
Soubi: 'What is it? What's happening to me?'
Seimei: *chuckles* 'This... This is very real, Soubi.'
Soubi: 'This... did you? ... It's yours?'
Seimei: 'Yes. And no.'
Seimei: 'But this pleases me immensely, Soubi.'
Well, of course it does. Considering what happens at the end of the term.
I now present: THE CONTINUATION.
Congratulations Daddy, it's a BOY!
Soubi: 'Your name, as predetermined by KatFate, shall be Soubi II.'
Soubi: 'I will protect you. Always.'
HEEEE! Soubi Daddy is just too adorable. Soubi Jr. is also looking very promising despite the somewhat creepy Agatsuma look he's inherited making him looking preternaturally wise for his age. And to answer everyone's first question: NO he has not a smidge of Seimei in him. Yes, Seimei impregnated Soubi -- but with someone else's genes (called foreplay, people). But hey, baby's still got tail! That's ALL I'm allowing myself to hint at.
upper_flowers: Soubi II hasn't shown any inclination to Soubi's lifestyle has he?
It's too early to tell. But hmm, he's very demanding of Soubi's attention. (Are you SURE there's no Seimei in him at all?) Gets all pouty and on the verge of tears if Soubi strays more than a meter away from him. But pfft, what was Soubi thinking anyway putting his precious boy down on the sidewalk?
In Soubi's defense, I had to redo Sasori's former room into a toddler's room. For me to do that, they had to go outside. As you can see, it was worth it! Soubi/Soubi bonding time!
*cough* Seriously. There's no Seimei in him. I mean, really. Would Seimei really want to mix his genes with Soubi? No, my his plan is much more sinister than that. :p
Soubi, dear Soubi, YOU CAN BE MY DADDY ANY DAY. ♥
Of course, raising a child all by yourself takes a lot of time and effort. Since Soubi II's birth, Soubi has not had any contact with another sim. He hasn't even had time to write an e-mail. So it was inevitable that after about 3 or 4 days without so much as a chance sighting at public lots of Soubi's whereabouts, two particular Sims took the initiative to drop in and check up on Soubi.
Kio was the first to swing by. Right after work. *smacks head* I cannot believe I put him in a business career. Soubi, at this time, had just recieved a call from Ritsuka saying he was also on his way over.
Soubi: 'Have you met Ritsuka yet?'
Kio: 'That's the other Aoyagi brat, right? Seimei's brother? Then no, not formally.'
It should be noted that Soubi II is playing quietly in his room across the hall. He's a good boy. Doesn't cry much and follows orders well, just like Daddy. The only other person who knows of his existence besides Soubi is Seimei. He impregnated Soubi after all. But even Seimei has not seen him yet. Let's just say that when Soubi became a Daddy, overprotective took on a whole new level of meaning. And for very good reason! As you'll see in a few pictures....
Awww, how quaint. Two very special people in Soubi's life spending an afternoon with him. While they scarf down his delicious apricot suzettes, Soubi drinks a simple can of juice. Neither seem to notice his discrete dieting. I mean, he did just have a child not too long ago.
Kio: 'You should come over to my house some time. I think you and Nisei would get along.'
LOL. As you can see, Soubi is NOT amused by this open invitation. That Kio and Ritsuka are actually getting along, period.
But in the end, Soubi says nothing as Ritsuka agrees to take Kio up on the invitation. And yes, Ritsuka also doesn't know that Nisei is Soubi/Kio's daughter. Poor Ritsuka. Everyone's already got a piece of Soubi but him.
The two ask Soubi if he'd like to hang out that evening, but he declines and tells them to go on without him. You see, tonight... tonight is a special night.
OMG OMG OMG!!!!
*falls over from intense cuteness overload*
I LOVE YOU. YES I DO. YOU ARE SOOOOOOO SOUBI'S SON!
Soubi was right to hoard you all to himself. Oh Soubi II, you even have that 'smiling on the outside, crying on the inside' look down to a T. Same knowing, preternaturally wise eyes. Tragically beautiful. *wipes tear of joy* So what if you don't know anyone BUT Daddy Soubi? HAVE YOU LOOKED AT YOURSELF IN THE PAST THREE SECONDS?!
You protect him at all cost, you understand Soubi? He's *chokes up* he's such a special boy! And it's a wild, wild world out there. Soubi knows better than most how absolutely RABID the SIMs get once they catch a sniff of such gorgeous new blood. Especially one as pure, as innocent, as untainted in his perfection as Soubi II.
Case in point: Yaoi Zero.
These are the final images of chibi!Youji.
FYI: Natsuo had briefly sported an eyepatch. It was a pirate patch, though, and --- well, covering up such a face seemed such a terrible waste. So for the sake of pretty eye candy, canon was sacrificed for PRETTY EYE CANDY.
Did I mention lately how very pretty all my Zeroes have turned out?
And this... this is I'mTooSexyForThisShirt!teenageYouji.
Mmm, I bet he tastes sweet, doesn't he Natsuo? Still so young. So fresh. So yours for the taking. ;)
But a birthday is a birthday is an excuse to hit the town. So team Yaoi Zero go out in full force that evening.
Not even two steps out of the car and already Youji is checked out by Naruto.
Naruto: 'Hey kitty kitty! You're hot!''
And so the alarm is set off. Here come the wolves!
Youji: 'I get it. I grew up hot. vamp!Sasuke and Gaara, the two most powerful and creepy SIMs in the neighborhood have checked us out. And Natsuo's got first claim. Can you please PLEASE make him stop grinning like an idiot now?'
Youji: 'Psst, I heard he makes his own netted thongs. Think if you model for him, you can get me one for my birthday?'
Gomen. Momentary lapse into fluffyness.
Youji: 'You. Me. Behind the curtains of the photo booth. Whaddaya think?'
*giggles* Naughty Natsuo! I still see your hands!!!!
Frustrated that they didn't have enough room to maneuver in the cramped little booth, the boys decide to continue their date at home.
Youji: 'So... we're bound to each other now, right?'
Shut up. I shall have my gratuitous skin if I want to.
And your obligatory, completely random Ritsu shots. No matter how big of a joke he becomes, he's still got sexy Koyasu's voice and calls himself Head of the Household:
GAH! I still can't figure out HOW THE HELL HE GOT A SHOOT LIKE THIS. It's not any of the standard photo options. I don't even recall WHEN he got this. *rollseyes* Is it any surprise though that he, of all my very gay sims, is the one to get such a photo shoot? Yes yes, Ritsu you are a very speshul boy too.

So remember how Kio invited Ritsuka over to meet Nisei? Well, he extended the invitation to Soubi as well. He's her father too, after all. With Soubi II grown up, Soubi finally decided to pay a visit to his first child.
But lo and behold! His daughter already has company. A BOY. And not just any boy, the OneCreepyExpression!Sai.
Having just returned from his mountain trek with Sasuke, big half-brother Naruto was equally appalled and disgusted that his sister was talking to such a ... such a SAI about, of all things, world domination.
Gah, I pressed fast forward instead of the camera, so I missed the shot. This is basically Soubi congratulating Nisei for having scared Sai off with, "You look like you need a hug."
LMAO. There sure is an unusually high amount of hottie traffic at Kio's residence. I understand now why he wanted Soubi and Ritsuka to come check it out.
Nisei trying to chat up the IhaveNoAbilityToExpressEmotions!SAI.
Kio had already gone to work that morning and, knowing Soubi would be passing by, had thought it a marvellous opportunity for some Father/Daughter bonding if Soubi would take Nisei to school. Soubi had no particular desire to be anyone's chauffeur (unless your name was Aoyagi) and would've preferred a day at home with his daughter, but he didn't quite trust that Sai boy and, upon learning he went to some different school called "Roots", decided the best place for Nisei to be afterall was school.

And the lesson to be learnt from this post? Soubi II is probably safest if he was home schooled. :p
