“How well do you think you would do as a parent?”
Galia: “Such luxuries are better off locked away, even as a though experint. But if you must know, I will at least give my children a roof under their head. I believe I’ve done quite well nurturing Lethe’s spawnlings. Wouldn’t you agree? However, if you an as a parent of my own kin… I’ve made compromises to bring stability. That ti, and such thoughts, shall remain locked away until Justica Arms’ arbitration is no longer required in this world…” Galia trails off, reminiscing of Lethe, and how happy she was when she was expecting her triplets.
Marionette: “The Strings shall dictate my performance. The equivalent of love is devotion. How well I do hinges not on the needs of the child, but on how I satisfy my role. A parent is, after all, defined no more and no less by simply obtaining a child. To do well is to fulfil the role, however the Strings pre-determine.”
Carpalis: “Hehehe… I would like to believe they’d be in good hands. Not mine, of course, hehe. But of whoever happens to beco my partner. One alone should not bear the burden of parenthood, unless prepared. No child should ever lack the love of a pair of parents. A bad parent, I’d be, as I am not as hands on. Evergreen, on the other hand: hehe: would be my first recomndation.”
Knalzark: “It’s one dream a Beholder cannot fathom. My heart gallantly roars that I’d create a machine out of my next of kin. However, that shape would be beaten by what I desire, that is, if it does not collapse under the weight of a dying star… Endorse Attachnt of oneself. No Beholder can do ‘well’ bearing an offspring. I doubt they have the organs necessary to support one, let alone hold them with their two hands.”
The Abyssal Mother: “Yes.”
Descartes 3: “It depends on how old the child is, what phase of psychoanalytic developnt they are, and who gains custody over the child. We may see the first modern internal Atelier War between its own Branches if I had to answer that. The fractured personalities of Descartes have warred for much less. They are quite competitive.”
Umbra: “It must be infuriating hearing how drawn out their answers have been. Why elaborate on an answer that can satisfy the asker with just a single word? No, Blessed One. No Beholder can nurture a child as a star does to a planet. Beholders are exhausted stellar engines, barely holding on in a constant cycle of self-destruction. Only in death may a star nurture another life as a parent would. If your definition extends beyond human definitions, then, I suppose that answer would be ‘yes’, aside from myself… There is no point in nurturing another life, when it will, inevitably, fade away.”
Satania: “Lucifinia couldn’t make it. Such a bizarre question. Beholders aren’t designed to support life. They’ve forsaken their humanity for trinkets. As for myself? That depends. Milk? Never. If it can’t share the fine taste of wine, then why care for it at all?”
Jury: “Amazingly! I know I can! I’m getting tons of practice with Joy! Not that I’m saying she’ll be replaced or anything. Plus, I felt having Ignis and the triplets in our gang helps a lot! I’m practically a parent already! I just wish the triplets would call mom too! (>_
