“May I ask a question?” said Keiichi, as he raised his hand.
“Go ahead,” said Saeko, daughter of Urd. “But do hurry, Grandma and a few demons will be arriving soon to help us stabilize the code.”
“Oh,” said Keiichi. “I’m just wondering if me and Belldandy should ... um...”
“No,” said Saeko. “The bond between you and Belldandy won’t allow a pairing between either of you or our Dad—he can change gender if you didn’t know,” she finished.
“Hey,” said Chio, daughter of Skuld, “did Auntie Urd ever use the ‘Lust or Bust’ potion on your side, and catch Dad in it as well as them?”
“Yep,” said Saeko.
“Lust or Bust?” asked Keiichi.
“Nothing you need to worry about,” said Urd quickly, deciding she had better get rid of that potion. Apparently leaving it in her supplies would be a bad idea.
“Sounds like something you’d make up!” accused Skuld.
“I wouldn’t act like that, Mom,” said Chio. “According to the Yggdrasil Data Possibility Matrix, you have just as much chance ending up in a harem-type arrangement with Auntie Urd and Auntie Belldandy with Uncle Keiichi as your only husband, as you do with Dad.”
“WHAT?”
“They never really understand, do they,” sighed Saeko.
“H-h-harem!” cried Keiichi.
“Uncle Keiichi, you do realize nearly all the pantheons support or supported polygamy at some point in time,” said Chio. “It is a possibility.”
“B-b-but!!!”
“Well, at least he’ll be quiet when Grandma gets here,” sighed Saeko.
“GRANDMA?” screamed Urd, finally hearing that little bit of information.
“URD-CHAN!”
“AWK!”
Saeko blinked. “Wow, she was right, she was always able to get to Mom that quick.”
“So now ... they won’t return to their original reality,” said Minako, taking her daughter’s hand.
“Correct,” said Setsuna’s daughter, ignoring the glare she was receiving from her mother. “Technically, we started out as shadows of those possibilities. Now in truth, those realities will continue to exist as if we never left them, while we shall each have a permanent home in this reality without disappearing. Of course, that still doesn’t preclude us from nudging our mothers to Dad, but the necessity has been removed.”
“But ... Mamo-chan...” stuttered Usagi.
“WAH!” cried Usa Saotome. “MY MOTHER DOESN’T LOVE ME!”
“Damn right,” muttered Usa.
“Watch your language, Mom,” said Usagi Tsukino-Chiba-Saotome (she really was upset that her parents couldn’t agree on one damn last name).
“I’d be surprised if he isn’t in a similar situation,” said Setsuna’s daughter. “After all, he is technically included in this. Hmm, I wonder if their child would be a Kamen or the first Sailor Earth. You know Mom, you never did tell Usagi whether or not she would need to have a second child to take on that role. After all, Mamoru does need an heir for Earth, as the other Senshi do for their own worlds.”
Before Setsuna could yell at her future daughter—whom she still had yet to get a name from—she was interrupted by the door to the shrine slamming open, with Haruka glaring at a girl who could only be her daughter.
“For the last damn time, I AM NOT BI!”
“Me being here sorta proves you are, Mom,” said the girl, waving off the angry woman. “Then again, maybe it is just for Dad. I mean, he does have a girl form, and if you did it with his male form only, I’d have a lot more little brother and sisters than I do now.”
“Please tell me someone has some extra strength aspirin,” said Michiru, walking in with another girl in tow.
“Should I make you some tea, Mom?” asked the girl.
Setsuna could only twitch. “... And they’ll all be here ... forever...”
Setsuna’s daughter smirked as her mother passed out. “Oh, I love when she does that.”
Hotaru smiled at her daughter. Even if she didn’t meet the father, it was still nice to know she had someone she could really connect with. I wonder if she’s too old to take to a park?
“Mom,” sighed Ranma, “what are you doing?”
“Just making a list, my very manly son,” smiled the happy neo-grandmother, as she worked on a chart—which had taken up half of the Dojo wall—to name both a possible mother, as well as the child’s name. “But I do have to wonder, why all girls? I have yet to see a grandson?”
“His curse!” answered Nyoko quickly, sticking her tongue at Nabiki. “His curse raises the chances that any kids he has will be female more than male. But don’t worry, Dad. I do have a younger brother, and from what we have seen, the curse isn’t passed onto your kids.”
Ranma blinked. He hadn’t even thought of that.
Nabiki blinked. “Just how many kids do I ... have ... with Saotome?”
“¥1000,” smirked Nyoko, as she stuck out her hand.
“Oh, just tell her already,” said Ranko. “It’d be nice if someone had more than one kid with Dad. You have no idea how often I pester Mom for a baby brother or sister.”
Shrugging her shoulders, Nyoko smiled. “Little Tenma was born last year, Mom’s fifth.”
“FIFTH!” screeched Nabiki. She didn’t have one, two, ... but five children ... with Ranma!?
“WAH!” cried Nodoka, breaking out her fans.
