[Happy End: A Brighter Future]
But can you accept an ending like that?
Matsuda Enri and Matsuda Jotaro stopped at the same time, each in the middle of trying to close the simulator.
The simulator had somehow appeared on their phones after they bumped into each other. Without even tapping the text, it simulated the life of their child, and then...
How is that supposed to count as a happy ending!
As if it could hear what they were thinking, the simulator slowly displayed a line of text on the screen.
[Would you like to restart the simulator?]
As if by telepathy, their fingertips touched the "Yes" option.
Before the two could start awkwardly introducing themselves, the simulator emitted a dazzling light.
"So cute!"
A chubby baby with rosy cheeks and soft little curls sat quietly in his swaddling, looking at them through the screen with round, teal-blue eyes and beaming like a silly little thing.
[Age zero: Matsuda Jinpei is born.]
Synopsis Two
Matsuda Jotaro discovered that the world started to change after he bumped into a transfer student with curly black hair at school. A child-raising simulator appeared on their phones, shady organizations kept cropping up in their lives, and...
There was also the promise that [once you reach the required childcare and harmony values, little Matsuda Jinpei can appear in the real world].
...But what do you mean you can exchange childcare points for an Ultraman transformation experience card?
Faced with the simulator's dazzling array of shop items and task lists ranging from picking up litter beside the school garbage cans to taking down Organization XX, Matsuda Jotaro fell into a deep silence.
"Let's start with something simple!" Matsuda Enri struck up a conversation with great familiarity. "Let's start by wiping out the Matsuda Group. Jinpei's going to be a police officer in the future, after all."
Matsuda Jotaro jerked his head up and stared at the person who was very likely the rumored illegitimate child of the Matsuda Group.
Matsuda Enri merely smiled warmly.
[Mini Scene]
What's this?
Matsuda Jinpei found a visit button beside his cradle. He tilted his head, then used the crawling skill he'd only just learned to clamber over to it.
He knocked Hagiwara Kenji over, who had been playing by himself in the sidecar of a little motorcycle.
"Aah!"
Looks like he ended up somewhere else!
This can be treated as an alternate timeline to the magical girl story next door (no more magical girls or Kamen Riders. Now appearing: the Light Giant, (crossed out), though aside from Mom Matsuda, Dad Hagiwara, and Mom Hagiwara, the plot doesn't really have much in common.
No one's writing a child-raising story with Jotaro as a pairing, so I'll do it myself!
I've also added a setting I joked about years ago: Mom Matsuda is actually the heiress to the Kuchi Organization.
The main characters are Mom Matsuda and Dad Matsuda, but there will also be a deadly amount of baby content.
Note:
❤️ Main couple: Mom Matsuda x Dad Matsuda. HagiMatsu (Hagiwara Kenji x Matsuda Jinpei) and ChihayaShinobu (Hagiwara Chihaya x Oe Shinobu) will also appear in the extras. The pairing order matters. In the main story, HagiMatsu and ChihayaShinobu are both babies and have no romantic plotlines.
❤️ This is a child-raising story, so there will be lots of descriptions of little baby Matsuda, baby Hagi, and baby Chihaya. The babies will also wear cute, bizarre crawling suits.
❤️ The tone of this story is lighthearted, with lots of comedic commentary in the main text.
[Characters in comedy stories are invincible.]
❤️ This story is not for readers who need lots of content warnings. I won't change the wording or invent new terms.
