Headcanons for being Diego Hargreeves’ child
Diego Hargreeves x child!reader
warnings: knifes, blood, guns, death mentions, mental hospital
a/n:
prompt: anonymous: “Hi! Could you please write a “The Umbrella Academy” Diego Hargreeves x daughter reader headcanon? I always think Diego is such a overprotective softie dad ♥️♥️”
Tumblr media
deigo really said “?????”
how dad
but also he’d just the most loving dad anyone could ever ask for
✨it’s because he was never loved by his dad✨
“hi cutie, i love you, i love you, i love youuuuu”
he locked away all his weapons so that you couldn’t hurt yourself on them
but he always missed a few and he’d turn around and see you holding throwing knives and just FREAK OUT
“no, no, no, you may not have those! knives are for big boys like me, not babies”
“give back”
“‘give back?’ are you nuts?”
diego has conversations with lil you as if you know what the fuck he means dhshshhshs
as you got older, you became more interested in his “career”
“no, i dont care if you have powers or not! you have a bedtime, that means no vigilantism, you hear me?”
“if i say ‘no’ can i be a vigilante?”
“you know what? how about you clean up the gym for al so he doesn’t evict us?”
you did not sign up for this
you really wanted to meet your aunts and uncles, but you weren’t exactly sure they knew about you
i mean, you knew you had a cousin but everyone knew about her because aunt allison was a goshdarn celebrity
“dad, i want to meet the family!”
“no you don’t”
end of discussion
despite having a bedtime, you still watched movies late at night with your dad
he really liked marvel movies
“come on, that would never happen!”
“you come from a family of superpowered kids, a robot mom, and a monkey, and you’re upset about...a guy that shoots arrows?”
“maybe i am, what’re you gonna do about it?”
you ask about umbrella academy stories a lot, you your dad usually makes it about him
“and then i punched that guy in the face! and then i stabbed him in the leg because he was a dick! bet you’re friend’s dads arent as cool as me”
*yawning bc you’ve heard this story a million times*
you go to public school
you do have your dad’s last name
which occasionally gets recognized
“woah! wasn’t your dad a superhero?”
“i have no idea what youre talking about” :)
practicing your knife throwing while diego is away, him coming home to find his knifes stuck through various targets
so proud but he had to make sure you didn’t hurt yourself
you actually had to learn how to patch him up because he did come home a bit battered and bruised several times
“im okay, y/n. no need to freak”
“dad, there is literally blood dripping on the floor will you just sit down and stay still for five goddamn minutes?”
“woah, who the fuck taught you to cuss?”
watching the news at home when your grandfather was reportedly dead
you were actually very upset because you wanted to meet him so bad
even if he was a dick
your dad came home silent and you knew he knew
“you okay?”
“oh, yeah, im better than okay!”
finally getting the chance to meet your family
“who are you?” -allison
“im, uh, y/n. diego is my dad”
*jaw dropping*
and you know what? that happened four more times (plus ben but you didn’t get to see that)
“and you are?” -luther
“who’s the...the little one?” -klaus
“well, what do you know? diego’s a dad” -five
“don’t tell me that’s...no way” -ben
“you’re diego’s? wow, i can’t believe he didn’t tell anyone” -vanya
“i...i know who all of you are” -you
diego bragging about how perfect you are while everyone simultaneously rolls their eyes
“well, y/n, maybe one day we’ll schedule a playdate for you and claire” -allison
“‘playdate?’ how old do you think i am?...but yes i wanna meet her”
“god, you’re so much like diego, it’s unsettling”
you had been secretly training at al’s gym during your dad’s late night activities
so when trouble came your way, you were able to handle yourself pretty well
“where the hell did you learn that?”
“al showed me a few moves!”
“that old man? you’re kidding”
you met your grandmother, grace, who was tasked with keeping you safe at all times
you actually loved her sm
but there was something a bit off about her
besided the fact she was a robot
klaus snuck you out so that you two could have BoNdInG tImE
it wasn’t all bad
ben was a lil choked up that he got to meet one of his niblings
“they’re perfect”
“they just stabbed someone, buddy”
“who are you talking to?”
FIVE EVEN SCHEMED WITH YOU
“okay, y/n, i need you to curve something when i throw it, got that? right at that security guard”
“what are you throwing?”
“you’ll know when you see it, make your uncle five proud”
“IS THAT A GUN”
<3 family
running into patch!!
“hey, kid, i just saw your dad. i thought i told you to handcuff him to the radiator when you were away?”
“yeah, well, he wouldve chewed his hand off so here we are”
that was the last time you saw her :/
well, your dad was now a wanted man
“what happened to your arm?”
“no”
you actually didn’t expect this family reunion to go south like this
wait—yes you did
vanya has powers????
“i thought vanya was the one without powers?”
“yeah. so did we.”
diego straight up did not want you anywhere near that
but you, again, were his child and also fuck authority you do what you want
the vibe is almost getting shot several times
by hazel, cha cha, and “commission” guys?
going 2 ur auntie’s concert 😌✨
“y/n, hide in the bathroom and stay there until i come get you”
“dad, i love you, but no”
“y/n, i love you too, but yes”
“no”
“yes”
“NO”
“YES”
you won
but in the end (or not so much) you time traveled to...1961?
without any of your family
“this is...this is not good”
understatement of the year(s)
what was a kid like you gonna do in dallas, texas in 1961
no seriously, what
it was rough, but you managed to survive on your own
and open a paper in 1963 to find a mugshot of your dad
“son of a—”
visiting dad! (two years later)
“y/n? oh my god, y/n! shit, i missed you so much! why do you look different? you’re bigger, oh god. how long have you been here?”
“2 years, dad. you?”
his hair was so LONG
“2 months”
“christ, that’s it?!”
“i have to stop jfk from being assassinated”
“what makes you think that’s a good idea???”
“its the right thing to do, wanna help?”
“shit, i guess. as long as i dont end up here”
“no promises, people in the 60’s are crazy”
diego: 👁👄👁
you: 👀
running into five on the street soon after
“uncle five?”
“no time to talk”
“okay, asshole? i’ve been here for 2 years and you dont care?”
“two years, huh? i spent 45 years in a post apocalyptic world as a 13 year old and beyond”
“i didn’t say it was a competition, dude. you kinda dropped us all at different times. at least, me and dad. he—”
“is trying to kill lee harvey oswald, i know. come with me”
finally running into your other aunts and uncles, who were so excited to see you
you ran into their arms and they picked you off the ground and you felt closer than ever after only knowing them for 10 days
dad broke out
lila too
“im your new mom!”
“you’re what?”
diego dragged you along with him almost everywhere
he had missed you so much, but he keeps forgetting you kinda grew up without him for a while longer
meeting grandpa :)
“a grandchild, huh? how unfortunate”
“bitch”
“what did you just call me?”
“a bitch.”
your dad and basically the entire table trying to hold back laughter
reggie was stunned
cold hearted just like him <3 he didn’t know if he was offended or proud
this is so confusing
diego just disappeared off the face of the earth
and assassins were on your case
“the goddamn swedes are back oh shittt im gonna die”
“y/n, just curve their bullets”
“it’s not as easy as it sounds, klaus!”
you were doomed
theres too much to go over
apparently you died on a farm????
and then you didn’t??????
and your dad was almost apart of the commission
“hey, you okay, y/n?”
“i would like to take a nap please”
“yeah, me too”
“me three!” -klaus
yeah it was never that simple 😌💕 the end

Season 1 Episode 13
Ok, just over 3 hours for the last episode of the season. I'm good with that time. Not so good with where we left off though.
I was so excited to start the next episode I forgot to click it....😑
Yo, I like the intro again. Idk, the opening monologues are usually really good at catching my attention. Even when it's already enthralled.
Look, I 100% get where Michael's coming from, and I get what he wants, but I am way too worried about what Noah could do. I'd also much rather Max put his gun down, cause that's just not it. Hmm if only Noah would die while right now
Michael! Baby! Please. And torture is just worse then dying.
Pfff. I didn't think I'd laugh, but Max just shooting the antidote made me fucking snort. It shouldn't have, but it did.
Also, sidenote... how are they gonna explain Noah's disappearance? Like idk, that's gonna look sketchy.
Michael and Max are on such different sides on how they feel about things, and it's why they keep getting into conflicts. Like I've talked on the whole family and belonging thing before I believe. Michael feels he'll belong amongst aliens, Max feels what they've got is all they need, yada yada. It's still upsetting to see.
Ah shit. Michael please don't. We can't have Noah running around. Because see now that we might get that, I know 100% that it's a bad thing.
Aydgsjzyzyhhzgzydy! See BAD FUCKING IDEA! Shit! Fuck!! Ok, Michael will be ok, but this is most certainly a bad thing.
And now Noah's gonna be healed without anyone watching, he's gonna be running around again. This is not good.
Hey Maria. They didn't tell her anything. Ngl, I kinda thought they would
Wait wait wait wait! That necklace! The flower! Powder! Oh shit, that's supposed connect her family to aliens back in time. Yo that's cool!
I was wondering if it's supposed to protect her from them, and my first thought was how I don't think she was wearing it when Noah jumped in her body, then I realized she was when Isobel influenced her, so I thought it didn't work, then I remembered Isobel got sick from that! It does work!
Liz just went through a lot there lmao. She was about ready to jump on Maria/Michael, then learning about Alex and Michael, and now she's here. Both her friends have something with Michael. Lmao
"If we could choose we wouldn't fall at all," um excuse you, I would most certainly choose to fall in love. So sshh. Lol
Of fucking course it was Manes! Does this man do anything that isn't fucking sick and twisted?
Can we go back to Michael though? He's kinda bleeding out right now.
No? Ok, instead we go to this asshole. Great. Dude, they're planning murder right now, aren't they?
Oh shit, I am very uncomfortable with Liz in here alone.
Ah shit. He's here. Ok, well this isn't good
Oh, she has that dust! Theres gonna be more that'll happen, but at least there's this.
Ok, we're back to the house. I'm a little concerned about getting to Michael, but you know what, once Max sees he will be too, so I should just let it play.
Did it work? I mean, duh it has to, I know he's alive and well later on, but I still get worried.
Ok, but why does Noah have like all their powers? I just realized I never asked that. What's special about him.
Ha "I thought you were the smart sister" he says as he gets outsmarted.
Yeah, Michael may not be the best person to have around right now. I love him, but he's not in a good place right now.
Tell her something she doesn't know.
What is she thinking?
Pffff.....
Oh wait. Liz doesn't know this. Kyle! Why didn't you tell her!?
I am not convinced she's fine. I'm fairly sure she got stabbed, and the more she says she's ok, the more sure I am.
Girl! Go to the fucking hospital! You're human, you can go. There'll be questions, but that's not all that important right now.
Ok, while I don't hate that guy dying, Noah gaining strength is something I do hate.
Ok, she called Kyle. That'll work as well.
Fuck off. I knew she wouldn't be good too. It sucks how she can be controlled. I can't wait til we're completely done with Noah for good.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. I don't like what is happening. Nope not one bit! I keep remembering the picture! Why is Max see through? I don't like this. I am not okay. I know in my heart if he dies he's coming back (hence, see through. He'll still be around to some capacity) but I cannot deal with it if he dies I cannot I cannot I cannot. Nope nope nope.
Yeah, ok, Kyle's right, Liz should be in the hospital, but I also get her reasoning too. At least she has a doctor though.
He knew. Sorry Liz. Oh, she's just understanding about that. Wow ok. I expected her to be mad he didn't tell her. But I guess I should know better.
Hey Michael's up! Hey buddy, look I love you and Alex, and I love that Alex is here, but imma need you to head out and find Max, because he's not doing so hot rn. Also that is your blood actually.
Alex, any of other fucking time I would love this, but right now, I need you to stop. I am sorry, now is really not the fucking time Max is about to fucking die, and I can't say I'm gonna be okay either.
Look, I'm sympathizing with Alex, I feel bad for him, I'm happy he's talking, but I just... not right now. The timing is horrible. I don't even know if Michael could find the other two, so it's not a great situation we're in, but he's the best chance we've got right now of somehow helping, because Max is currently getting the his insides torn up, Isobel is out of commission. I just need some reassurance. Maybe even, idk, going back there in the show?
Bitch if this keeps up this is gonna be the episode I spoil myself for everything in. It is so tempting. Literally the only reason I have not read wiki is because I'm liveblogging. It is killing me. I am actually dying. Most shows I end Googling everything about after 3 episodes. I never wait and anticipate. Even when I watched the Walking Dead, if we weren't on time with the weeks episode, I'd read the episode description before watching.
Ok back to the show.... I don't want to keep watching. Lmao.
Shit! Ok, so, hey, he knows where to go now! And yeah, tomorrow's a great time Alex. Would have been better, but you know.
Oh, he didn't kill them. Well I mean duh. But why?
Who? The aliens are coming back? Oh shit. Ok, who are our aliens? Why wouldn't they be left here?
Saviour? What is all of that. Yo! They have more powers. Yeah, ok, see I don't mind the idea that aliens were the gods. It's fun to think about.
Yes! Ok, Michael's here! But now, um, well, how do we deal with Noah? Cause he's still powerful.
Where's he going? What are you doing Max? Also, I don't like leaving Michael in there alone either. Um, yeah no. Not a good idea.
Ok, I see what you're doing. He's gonna pull a Pikachu. That makes me nervous. But I mean so does anything. The image cover really just puts me on the edge of my seat. Watch it all be some stupid thing that means nothing and I've been freaking out half the season for nothing.
Um, what happened to Michael. You know, Noah coming out of the cave doesn't make me feel good.
Ophiuchus always annoyed me tbh. It throws off all the zodiac. Throws off the patterns, the even levels of everything. Does it even have masculine or feminine aspects? How about fixed, mutable, or cardinal? Whats it's element; fire, water, air, or earth? It doesn't make sense. And if you give it one of any of these the numbers are thrown off. Ophiuchus sucks. Am I trying to distract myself from my worries? Why yes, yes I am.
Ok, Michael's out, which, we knew, but Isobel is now up! So that could be good.
That's a lot of electricity. Yeah, Max is gonna kill him
Isobel? What are you doing? Oh. She did that to break up with him. Ok, fair I guess. It's her life
Take care of who? The only person I can think of is Rosa, but she's dead, so it can't be her.
Oh Michael's up too, and Noah is dead now. Deserves it. We still have half an episode though... hmm. Setting up for next season?
Yes, 'Murica and it's guns.
Kyle is going a little loopy. He should talk to someone.
'Murica! You think someone's going crazy, and instead of not selling him the gun, you sell it cheaper.
Ok, fall out with Noah now.
Isobel☹
Look, I tend to agree that you focus on what you have and try and make the most of it. And I don't think they should be obsessed with their pasts, but I do think they shouldn't ignore them either. There's stuff to learn, and knowing things about who they are would definitely come in handy.
Also, Max definitely feels off. He's overly celebratory me thinks. I worry what this'll entail.
Ok, hmm, this is unsettling. Also definitely got that power boost from killing... I really hope hat nothing bad comes from it.
Don't worry Liz, that's from way before.
They ate still so cute together though. Like ngl.
Lmao, thirsty girl. Oh, first time sleeping together in the season finale.
Yep, says nothing about you Isobel.
Lmao, I mean fair enough. Yeah, her relationship problems definitely took first place in shitty relationships
Michael..... It's not Alex's fault, but like, yeah, his family history would definitely factor in a lot. Most of the trauma the Michael has suffered is at least in part due to the Manes family. That's a really shitty situation to be in.
Oh, is this Noah's cave?
IT'S FUCKING ROSA!? Well ok, I guess it was Rosa he meant afterall. Fuck me.
Wait, how is she even in there? She's human. Can humans be in there? Apparently. It works on everything. Does this mean she's aware of her surroundings though? You know, since his is a defective pod? Or I guess not since she's dead. So she's gonna come back then right? Like they're not gonna have her body there to leave it at that.
Yeah, um, no, you're not gonna see yours. He is though. Yeah.
It's because the mystery was something that was essentially keeping her alive. It was more you could learn about her, and uncover and all that. It was a new side of her you didn't know, something you usually find only while alive
DID HE JUST FUCKING KILL KYLE!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? WHAT THE FUCK DUDE? I was not predicting that at all. The fucking image made me focus on Max (which by the way seems to be a fakeout. Unless something happens next season. I can't really see him dying now. Though tbf, Kyle getting shot came out of left field too, so...)
Oh he's not dead. Well that reaction was for nothing then. Damn. Bulletproof vest I'm assuming. Nice idea.
Ok, went for a vest instead of a gun. I actually like that. Though, Kyle, you may want some kind of back up. Hmm, I mean that works too. I am worried though for Kyle's sanity. He's been through it the last couple days.
Yeah, they definitely have to tell Liz. Idc what they think it'll do to her, but she would want to know.
Max, that's not a good idea. And Noah was stronger because he killed. This is not something you can do.
Michael is 100% right right now. Yes, the best situation would be to take some time, bury her, though also tell Liz. We are not gonna try and bring back the dead. Bad Idea.
Max I don't like that look.
And Michael is visiting Maria right now. Dude, why did they have to have Alex talk to Michael like just the day before. If they didn't I wouldn't be feeling conflicted right now. I'd just say let him be. And then what he said to Isobel. Ugh! I think I'm gonna do a wrap up post about the season later.
I hate love triangles, someone always gets hurt. Usually me.
Ok ok ok. I mean its cute.
Oh, he can play again! I wonder how good that feels!
😬 she's not there Liz.
Max! No! I am scared! This could go so so wrong! Ah shit! Max! Consult people!
This with Liz's speech is giving me mood whiplash.
Isobel is practicing other powers. It's working! Yo that'll be so cool!
Ah shit. And this is what I mean about things hurting. Alex just sitting there waiting. See like I said, if this wasn't an issue, I wouldn't be upset. And same would've went the other way too. Idk, waiting is the worst. Like no matter how I feel about a ship, unless the person is an asshole, watching someone just sit and wait makes me hurt. I know I've never actually experienced that, but like, it's the one thing about relationships and relationship woes that I feel intimately familiar with, despite not dating. Maybe it's a past life thing, left a scar on my soul.
Yeah, um Maria's noticed noticed hand. See, this wouldn't be an issue if people let her in on the secret! Like dude, she's the ONLY one who doesn't know.
Isobel! She did it! Nice! Good for her good for her.
Ok, back to Max, this will not end well. Like either somethings gonna be wrong with Rosa when she comes back, or he's gonna be sick/hurt.
Rosa's back! But, and I'm sorry to brush you off girl, Where's MAX!?
Wait is this gonna be why he's see through!? He's not gonna fucking die in like the last minute of the season right? Like that's not gonna happen. They wouldn't do that. I'm right. Right? Nah. He'll be fine, like that be the worst cliffhanger to leave off on for people who first watched this.
Imagine though, seeing your sister after that. How would that feel. How could you feel?
Ah shit! Nononnonononobobinonkifuzgsgsygzgd they didn't nopenopenopenopenopenoepnoepenodp I refuse I do not accept I do not see he is not dead, episode ended earlier. I do not care. Nothing happened Max is fine. He's ok, he's not dead. Nope nope nope nope.
Well shit guys, kinda weird how that episode was just like a minute of nothing at the end, huh? No but seriously he's not gonna stay dead. There's no fucking way. Impossible. If Rosa came back, Max is gonna come back, so you know what, I'm not even that bothered (you know denial is fun. Even so, I doubt Max could stay dead. He's too important to the plot).
Ok, well I finished season 1. This episode took me so long to watch. I kept pausing way too much, but I'm done now, and probably should head off to get ready for my lift today. Expect a post summing up my thought on the season tonight. Maybe the first episode of season 2 also.

I know u probs aren’t looking for another au but u kind of inspired this: Raihan being Ash’s BF for a bit now when Mew and Mewtwo appear. They hand Raihan a lump wrapped in clothes and Mewtwo is like “there was an incident we’re working on it but we need someone to watch them while we work and they can’t leave the region bye” and teleport away. Raihan is so confused until he finds a de-aged baby ash and Pichu in the lump (it takes a week before Celebi/Dialga can fix it).
OKAY FIRST OF HOW DARE YOU BRING THIS WONDERFUL AU TO MY DOORSTEP!?!?
Second off this is absolutely amazing and I’m taking it now.
Raihan is absolutely shocked because he did NOT plan is day to be like this at all. Ash is now babey so he can’t be left alone at all, something in Raihans gut is telling him not to hire a nanny even though that would take a large chunk of work off of Raihan’s plate, and the Pichu with the baby has to be Pikachu.
He goes back to his house, not saying a word besides what he sputtered out to Mew and Mewtwo before they vanished, and sits down on the couch. Pichu curled up and clinging to his headband as Raihan looks down to his de-aged Bf who’s looking up at him. Making baby gurgling noises and raising his hands up at Raihans face. It’s only then does it sink in that his wonderful Bf is de-aged and he has absolutely no fucking clue how to take care of a baby. So that means there’s only one thing...
Call Melony
Raihan being a coward goes through like forty google links on How To Take Care Of Your De-aged Boyfrind, more like babysitting a baby for dummies, before submitting when he STILL has no clue. The call goes to voice mail and Raihan is to scared and panicking that he just stutters out “I have a baby, help.” Before ending the call and instinctively chucking his Rotom phone across the room. Rotom is kinda pissed at that but they understand because their afraid of Melony to, Pokémon like trainer.
Raihan doesn’t get any answer or notifications from her until like 3 hours later she basically kicks his doors down and send both Raihan and Ash, who he was still cradling in his arms, into a scare fit. Ash starts crying and Raihan wants to to when he see’s Melony now armed with Kabu and Opal behind her.
It’s a mess and Ash starts crying even louder when he gets taken out of Raihans arms, Pichu gets angry as well and Raihans Pokémon are so close to attacking as well because the 3 adults scared them as well, by Melony and All three question him about where he got Ash and how come someone trusted Raihan with a baby this young?
Raihan panicking and about to have a anxiety attack: it’s Ash!
Melony stopping: it’s who!?
Raihan getting worse: it’s Champion Ash! A new and some kind of knock off Mew called Mewtwo gave him to me along with Pikachu *waves to the sparking Pichu on his shoulder*. I don’t know what happened, something to do with Dialga and Celebi, but I’m supposed to watch him until he un-de-ages.
All three adults: *simultaneously shocked Pikachu meme*
Bby! Ash: *still crying*
Raihan: can I.... can I have him back?
So Raihan gets him back and Ash calms down a little but still is a sniffling mess and Raihan is still close to crying himself from under all the sudden stress and anger from the three most badass gym leaders. Opal acts first while coming closer and uncharacteristically correcting Raihans hold with a shaking hand. Raihan then remembers that both Kabu and Opal were once parents but both lost their kids in different accidents long ago before Raihan was born, a secret kept between any and all Galar Gym leaders.
Melony is still a bit stressful but both Opal and Kabu calm down, or Kabu relaxes a little since he was mostly calm during that interaction, and help Raihan clean Ash up. Pichu is still distrustful but let’s it go for now since no one is yelling anymore and Ash isn’t crying. It soon boils down that Melony would bring her old nursery stuff down to Raihans house later that day while Kabu and Opal help Raihan order baby stuff to his house. When Raihan questions why not go out and buy stuff they point out that Raihan with Ash out in public, with the public Not Knowing Ash is a baby until who knows how long, would cause a rucus and that would cause Rose and Oleana coming down to talk to Raihan.
He then points out that he’s a Gym leader, and it’s nearing the end of the training season as well, AND that he has a large following on social media. His fans are bound to find out that he has a baby by either stalking his house or the public just finding out that he’s taking care of a baby because Raihan has to go to work and back.
Hiring a nanny is immediately off the list Raihan states when they try and brainstorm some ideas. To risky which Raihans position and crazed fan clubs, and he doesn’t trust Rose’s hired league nannies after what he heard of what happened with Melony young twins, and that one of them might somehow find out early and work into the selection pool and now Raihan is falling into another panic induced episode that’s slowly working its way to upsetting Ash.
It takes Kabu gently getting Ash out of Raihans grip for him to realize that he almost set of Ash again. They agree nannies are off the table and are now forced to agree with just going with the flow and going out to public and dealing with Rose and Oleana afterwards.
What Raihan dreads the most is when Sonia and Nessa find out, their very big on babies and Raihan knows that they’ll try and be over almost 90% of the time, or Arceus forbids Leon finds out. That man was such a little terror when his baby brother Hop came into the world. Constantly rebelling against Rose and Oleana, much to everyone else’s amusement in the league besides Rose and Oleana, to go see little baby Hop. Dude has a sixth sense of when there’s a baby nearby.
Raihans fears happen and the moment someone spots him in public with Opal, Ash, and Pichu theres photos spread all across Galars social media. He refuses to check his phone, turned off because no-fucking-way is he answering anyone’s calls in public, and continues to ignore the chatter and uncharacteristically stick by Opals side who glares at anyone who dares come to close to the young adult and the baby.
Melony and Kabu go back, with an extra house key to Raihans house just incase they magically get back before he and Opal do, to Melonys house to get her old nursery stuff and transport it back to his house. Opal isn’t really playing until her usual Crazy Old Eccentric Lady normal personality. she’s more wise and calm as she easily answers all of Raihans, still, slightly frantic questions.
Ash is a quite baby throughout all this, maybe it helps that Pichu keeps chittering down to the baby at all times through the ordeal, and only really made any noise when Raihan brought a toy into his sight. Other then that Ash was more tuned to the idea of sleeping and drooling on Raihans hoodie.
Once they got back to the house, Kabu and Melony nowhere in sight and Raihan was taught how to clean, feed, burp, and dress Ash, did Raihan turn on his phone. Half surprised by all the calls, voicemails, and frantic all calls messages by everyone. What worried him the most was the most frequent call, from Lance of all people.
Lance pops up on his screen again and Raihan quietly prepares for the man to question him before answering.
Lance: where’s Ash and when did you get a baby!?
Raihan, extremely tired: the baby is Ash
Lance: ... that makes so much more sense and not at all at the same time
Raihan: from what Mew and Mewtwo told me before disappearing, something happened and Godly de-aging for both Ash and Pikachu
Lance: ....
Raihan: .....
Lance: so how long-
Raihan: I have no fucking clue
Lance: well Shit.
Melony and Kabu come back, with Gordie and Bea in tow as well, and they all start setting up the nursery in Raihan office room and the crib between Flygon’s ‘nest’ of pillows and blankets and Raihans bed. Raihan orders pizza as a thank you and the next thing he knows Sonia comes bursting through the door.
Raihan, to tired for anymore of this shit today, does not let her hold Ash. Using his height to his advantage and keeps Ash, who’s also sleeping, out of her grip carefully. After an hour or 3 he kicks them all out of his house and finally settles Ash down for bed after going through the motions of checking his diaper and everything else.
Ash sleeps well through the night besides one crying fest early in the morning, thankfully right around 5:30 when Raihan usually gets up, and Raihan has to stumble through the journey of getting Ash cleaned, fed, burped, and dressed before looking over a pre-packed baby bag and going to work the next day.

I kinda want to see how Usnavi deal with stress or when he's sad in general. Idk if you mind,,,, just in the mood for angsty stuff,,,,,
why would he deal with stress or sadness when he can just repress it heavily until he has an anxiety breakdown about it?!! 
 i pretty much see him as working in a cycle like that and never quite learning to just share his feelings BEFORE they get overwhelming. i think he was much less anxiety prone when he was a kid/teenager – he had his share of heartaches and stresses and things that upset him, especially when it came to schoolwork, but even when he was struggling he had this optimism at his core that everything would work out okay eventually. he’d talk to his parents or his friends or abuela and know that they’d help him out, he had this kind of confidence in his support system. 
 and then his parents died, and it pretty much changed his entire worldview. for one, it made him a lot more anxious on a daily basis, because now he can’t tell hiimself that everything turns out okay when he knows that sometimes it doesnt and how badly wrong things can go. this is also where i see a lot of his tendency to just kind of freeze up and not know how to act starts: he’s so worried about making the wrong choices and losing someone/something important to him again that he’ll just sit and talk himself in circles for hours without making any progress. and he still trusts his support system as people, but he has this new fear now that somehow he’ll lose them too, so there isn’t quite the same sense of security about it. 
 he was pretty fucked up after it happened and when he’s finally made some progress on recovering from that, that i think he’s very scared of ever ending up in that dark emotional place again. a lot of little habits that crop up whenever he’s feeling particularly bad are ones that started around that time: he’s a stress smoker, and even though he doesn’t smoke regularly theres always periods of a week or two a couple of times a year where he temporarily picks it back up again. he already isn’t the best sleeper but it gets significantly worse when he’s having a bad time so he takes a lot of depression naps to make up for only getting 3 hours of sleep at night. he has a tendency to just kind of disappear without telling people, not on purpose and like obviouslyy he’s still in the store but he’ll suddenly stop answering texts and he’ll cancel socialising plans for no reason. he’s usually way more on the hyperactive side of ADHD but when he’s in a bad place emotionally then he tends to lean way more to inattentive type, just spacing out mid-conversation. 
he always has this worry that if he’s kept hold of these bad habits from after his folks died then what if that means the rest of it could also come back? he hated feeling that way, so he worries that by acknowledging when he’s feeling bad then he’ll be opening a door to the whole thing coming back as hard as it did the first time. and he also knows how much everyone who loves him worried about him during that time and he feels this sense of duty to not put them through that again and to keep them all happy. he puts a lot of his sense of self in being the bubbly, cheerful, silly dude he is and it’s sort of a blow to his sense of identity whenever he’s having a prolonged bad time, so again, just tries to put the happy face on and hope it all blows over. 
he also, i think, feels a very increased need to look after people and to be the caretaker role, partly because he’s trying to make up for his own sense of guilt about his parents, and partly because it just makes him feel more in control of his life, so he isn't as good at letting people take care of him when he feels like he should be taking care of them. usnavi is someone who knows how to work his ass off and he works his ass off at being happy as much as he does with running the store. 
he’s still got a lot of optimism, its just that his life has put a lot of anxieties and mental roadblocks in the way of it: it’s not so much that he believes everything will work out fine the way he used to believe, but more that he so desperately wants everything to be fine and is trying his best to make it happen. i dont think this is always a bad thing: sometimes just telling himself that things will be okay and making himself go about his life as usual and refusing to let lifeget him down does help, because some problems fade away on their own if you don’t give them the time of day.
 but then for recurring/long-lasting problems like money, health, exhaustion, grief etc it’s the exact opposite of helpful, because the problem isn’t going away and so repressing it just means he’s shoving more and more things inside a mental cupboard until eventually the door just bursts open and it all spills out on the floor. that’s like, usnavi freaking out in Hundreds of Stories vibe, where once things start coming out it all comes out at once in a babbling frantic mess. this most often happens in front of abuela because she’s the one he finds most comfort in when he’s feeling like that. 
 its kind of got to the point where everyone just recognises that this is how usnavi works. when he’s going through a bad phase – i think he’s mostly happy now but sometimes life throws shit at him, and i also think that he has a mild case of seasonal affective disorder because winter just reminds him of a lot of bad stuff – then they know eventually it’ll all come out in one big explosion and then he’ll feel better after that, and they just kinda have to wait for it to happen. and usually once he's had a meltdown about it, then he's a lot more receptive to advice or being looked after or like having a decent night's sleep for once.

(4:51) *heart eyes emoji*
.
Thursday PM
(6:44) ive been thinking
(6:46) Make sure you give yourself a break every ten minutes. We wouldn’t want to strain your mental capabilities.
(6:47) hush child i got something to say (6:47) about tobio sort of
(6:48) I’m listening.
(6:49) so yesterdays conversation made me go all introspective (6:49) and if all tobios doing is throwing things (6:50) the lil guy will go far in life (6:50) i mean when i was five i was eating sand
(6:51) Congratulations, you just tripped over the lowest bar society set for its most basic standards.

(6:59) You misspelled Best Freidn Foerver.
(7:00) all right he types like an electrocuted toddler (7:00) hes there for me during the good bad and ugly (7:00) and i support him 100% (7:01) but theres no logical explanation for how he got akaashi
(7:01) Maybe he has charm.
(7:02) gasp (7:02) babe (7:02) did you just imply i dont have any charm
(7:03) I didn’t say anything of the sort but it’s an apt description.
(7:03) you really are a savage (7:04) totally my type just saying
