While over the moon with any child he would receive, when he was told that Liàn refused to have more, that he wanted nothing more than to be the best Papa in the world! When he was given the chance to raise Ushi as well, he couldn't help but be happy despite missing his little girl. He was happy that she was happy.
A daddy's girl, she loved him and was grateful for the buffer he put between her and her mother. She misses her dad dearly and wonders what life would have been like if he was still around. She can only hope that Ushi has great memories with him and that one day she'll be able to share all their fun stories with her.
While she says she loves Suodìng, sometimes she really wonders if her birth even prevented that. She wants her daughter to be happy and believes she got that when she abandoned Ushi at their door.
Rocky relationship at best, she tries to find peace in the fact that her parents where able to give Ushi so much more than she ever could. She wishes her mom can find peace some day.
Head-over-heels in love and kept them feeling young. While he understood her concerns, he often thought she went overboard and had to pick his battles carefully.
The love of her life, he truly grounded her. She felt that she lost everything the day he passed and only keeps on going to protect Ushi.
She loves him with all her heart and is so very thankfully for the life they've built together, only wishing from time to time that Ushi could have been part of it.
The love of his life! You really don't want to stay here as he'll be rambling the rest of the day... He still jokes about their first encounter though, and how Suodìng thought his birthmarks were dirt.
Loved that his daughter was able to meet someone as free spirited as she was. He really enjoyed having a son.
While they where only able to meet a couple of times before his passing, the two got along great and Pérase was sadden by his death.
Despite what everyone thinks, she doesn't HATE him. She believes there is a time and a place, and that his clock was never aligned how it should be.
Pérase doesn't know how to feel about Liàn to be honest. He wanted desperately to get to know her outside of his wife's stories in hopes that she would be a better person with their daughter. While he's upset with how things turned out, he knows that she also just wants the best for Ushi.
Ushi has very mixed feelings about her mom, which change depending on the day. While her early maturity logically tells her that she understands the choices she made, her teenage hormones just made her want to fight her some days.
She loves Ushi but was loving life too much to bring a baby into the unstable world both her and Pérase's jobs brought. She just wanted her to be happy and safe.
Ushi sadly doesn't remember much of her Grandpa but knows she loved him dearly. While she is fearful of her Grandmother's passing and being left alone, she thinks of her Grandparents being happy again some day...
He loved Ushi greatly and spoiled her to pieces, as most Grandparents are comically known to do. He looked forward to the day her parents would settle down, so they could be one big family together.
Ushi knows her Grandmother means well but has only felt the effects of her getting worse and worse over the years. She looks forward to the break The Sailor Academy will bring them, but also fears it.
Liàn really does love Ushi as a Grandmother, but doesn't see how her own fears muddles her judgement.. She really does hope that Ushi will be able to learn even more at The Sailor Academy and bring back great knowledge to help the family's work towards security.
Ushi doesn't know how to feel about her dad and doesn't have any memory of him, but she loves reading his letters and seeing how full of life he still is.
Pérase love Ushi with all his heart but believes in what his wife asks of him, not wanting to make her life any harder than it already its.
A worthless Thalrusion noble, just like his father. His last chance is coming.
Could care less that his Uncle is King and would rather avoid him at all cost. He'll string him along as long as possible.
