And like, he kinda gets why Alibaba's kid is all chill with him considering the whole "I'll treat you as if you were my son" thing he said to Alibaba, but the child of Kougyoku? Yeah, he still doesn't believe the "I forgive you and thanks for the peaceful world" thing Kougyoku said. Even then, he doubts Kougyoku's brothers will let their nephew near him.

While the little Kou prince carries himself around the way Kougyoku does, there is something about his verbal tics that is NOT of Kou at all. (Finding out that Aladdin is the child's father gave him the same shock as finding out that Alibaba is alive.)

Alibaba's child on the other hand is like Morgiana; silent and strict, except when she becomes comfortable enough the sunny personality of her father comes through. It's a total personality flip.

I'm honestly just bored and currently looking around the AlaKou stuff. I think the big family of Ren will be happy to have a tiny addition. XD

So additional thoughts:

Kouha spoils him rotten, he has assigned caretakers but Kouha steals him from them.

Koumei is his teacher. He generally sticks to facts but throws in his opinion from time to time. No way he'll allow his nephew think Kouen was inferior to Sinbad!

Hakuryuu is his teacher in swordsplay. Hakuryuu thinks he's not the best option considering his own weapon of choice being a spear but Kougyoku assures him that he's doing well.

Hakuei teaches him how to properly conduct himself in front of others. Unfortunately, with Aladdin, Judal and Kouha's influences, it's been hard.

Judal is just a big brother figure (he's supposed to be his magic teacher but he doesn't wanna). Sometimes he takes the kid to town and gives the entire palace (especially Ka Koubun) a heart attack for an entire day. (Aladdin is always there to assure Kougyoku of what really happened. Kougyoku will give Judal a scolding later but it doesn't really affect the former Magi)

Kouen is where the young prince will run off to if he doesn't want to do anything. No training, no studying, Nada. And Kouen generally lets him. The former emperor will talk about the history of the world while the prince sits on his lap listening intently, being educated without knowing that he is.

With Kougyoku being the empress and Aladdin helping the people adjust in the new world, both parents aren't always readily available but it's fine. Their family will cover for them. The little prince understands. They will always spare time from their busy schedules to accommodate their child. They make sure that for every festival, they are both present, every special occasion, every country visitations, everytime the Saluja family visits or asks them to visit, the family of Kougyoku, Aladdin and their kid will be together.
