They tell me the rapture is upon us. I think that makes it a good time to post this fic. XD ( Read more... )

Hnnnnng I'm not sure whose part I like more. I think Kusakabe. Because he accepts that Hibari is a fluffball. Also Chrome in that part was quietly heartbreaking (well, she usually is, but, y'know.)
... To be honest I'd have liked to see more of Kyouya learning to take care of the baby immediately after getting her, but older Asami is such a terror it's quite fine. ♥

Kusakabe <3. He must know Hibari better than anyone. AND HE STICKS AROUND, so he must know something other people don't. XD

Poor Chrome. ;_; I can see her loving the idea of a family and then not being able to handle it at all.

l-lol. I figure that whole first year was an endless nightmare of chronic sleep-deprivation and violence against everyone who spoke a breath of criticism/advice/ANYTHING to Hibari, and none of his men thought they'd survive it. First-year, first-time parents are short-tempered zombies in the best of circumstances, and HIBARI... XD

XDDDD
This is a rare BG pairing for KHR fandom, usually when I see chrome involved with hibari, it's never without Mukuro attached in a 3-way.

The chinese fandom tends to portray chrome softer than yours, more like a samurai's wife sort of personality - she can do as the warriors do, but is content in the background (a little like Nana with bit more of a lethal kick) so usually I've seen Chrome paired up with Tsuna or with Ken.
But still. Such a good read. I'm a sucker for a good read.

And Papa Hibari. <3 He WOULD be such a good father, despite the psychoticness of it all XDDD (he'd be a good brother too, whether older or younger. It was hilarious how he 'reverse-grooms' Dino in one AU fic to be the perfect husband for his older sister - her personality was much like your portrayal of Hibari's mother. XDDDD )

It's my philosophy that everyone is more interesting paired with Hibari. You'd really have to be THE EXTREMEST VERSION OF YOURSELF to survive a relationship with Hibari, so...I kind of like to pair everyone off with him. Except Gokudera (if Gokudera gets anymore extreme he will DIE) and Ryouhei (I think Ryouhei has extreme well covered already). And Lambo, I guess. I fail to pair Lambo with anyone. XD

So Chrome has all this interesting potential, and I think Hibari would really bring it out of her. COULD BE AWESOME.

Papa Hibari ♥. World's best/scariest dad.

:D Thank you so much! I was so nervous about this one, you have no idea.

Poor Dino. *laughs at his face* I'm not sure there's any way he can win, really. And Romario and Kusakabe's relationship makes me laugh in canon, so I'm glad I got them right! :D

If Tsuna has his way, I think the Vongola WILL be a big, happy family. I should be scary for everyone. ^_^

There's something really beautiful about this story. Sure, it's dark and rather disturbing, but it's also very sweet and(dare I say it?) made me chuckle out loud. I loved that scene with Kusakabe being happy about Hibari's decision to raise his child but the scene where Dino is taken by surprise due to the sadism of the people around him was remarkably hilarious.
The part that touched me the most was probably the fact that, as Asami stated, Chrome made a place for her to be born and that she was special. It just brought a tear to my eye realizing how much Chrome wanted her and how heartbreaking the flashback was when she couldn't deal with it. I'm sure they could be a family somehow; they love each other regardless.
