Father's Day, hmm?

Don't really know the guy, but unsurprising that there's another holiday to celebrate his existance.  He's the Emperor, after all.

father's day, the emperor, xing

Emperor, huh...

He's not the special, singled-out one today. This holiday celebrates -all- fathers.

But unlikely in the case of mine. He ssems to have habitual child abandonment issues.

True - this is the day that it can be said that, in one way, he's just like all the other men in Xing.

Except most of them have one or two children, not fifty-something.

And I think I've heard about your father, or at least the father of the Elrics from my world. At least you got to know him a little bit though, when you were little. I don't know mine at all, really.

Heh. I was really young. Too young to even remember him, really.

Yours doesn't sound like much of a father, either.

That makes you a prince, right? Well, when you take his place be sure to spend time around your kids. Nobody likes to feel like they're just some sort of insurance policy.

That would be problematic, wouldn't it...

He's the Emperor of Xing, the man who single-handedly keeps the clans united. He's a pretty busy guy.

Haha, I intend to if I can. That is, if I can still have kids when that happens.

Your father's an emperor? Mine is, too. Well his title is Fire Lord, but it's basically the same thing.

Really? Interesting! There aren't many other countries where I come from where there's an Emperor... I wonder how our homelands compare.
