In the realm of dreams and spirits, Haruka is happy to see that his grandson-with Watanuki’s help- is finally learning how.

Flutters with DouWata love. Great fic! Haruka POVs are always awesome, always do Banzai's when he appears in Holic. Thanks for the fic.

Doumeki is such a sweetheart ♥

Now we just need Watanuki to see it. XD

Very cute.

I glee over the fact that Haruka looked forward to his grandson becoming a hell-raiser. He is a wise man when both alive and dead.

Coolest grandpa EVER. XD
