i hate to say it but you’re so right. i had this nagging feeling in the back of my head while reading this and u explained it perfectly. still, they have a wonderful relationship as a family and the cuteness is overwhelming.
Rereading this, I have complicated feelings
Like someone else mentioned, I wonder if Naguru would've accepted Herapi at all if Towa wasn’t in the picture.
As for Herapi, he definitely cares about Towa, but it feels more as if he sees him as a necessary part of staying close to Naguru. He treats him more like an annoying little brother than his actual child.
