Love Calculator Result - 26% Your love is as strong as the love between most children and their vegetables – insubstantial.

X-xx-X

The atmosphere in Izuku's dorm room buzzed with a tense energy, sharply differing from the laughter that had just burst out from Ruby. Huddled close with their knees trembling, they leaned over the luminous tablet screen. Ruby, adamant about trying the whimsical "Love Calculator" app, had just received its verdict.

"26% – Your love is as weak as the typical bond between kids and their vegetables – minimal."

Izuku blinked, his face a mix of bewilderment and a slight blush. "I-Insignificant? B-but… Ruby, we've battled monsters side by side! We've saved entire worlds! We've experienced so much together!"

Ruby, on the other hand, had become completely and magnificently motionless. Her silver eyes, typically shining with innocent curiosity, now burned with a fierce and unyielding intensity. A deliberate, dangerous smile spread across her lips, tugging at the corners in a manner Izuku had never witnessed before. It was not gentle; it was ruthless.

"‘Insubstantial,’ she murmured, the word emerging as a soft growl from her throat." She drew nearer, her warm breath tickling his ear, carrying a subtle scent of strawberries and ozone. "Oh, is that what they believe, Izuku?" Her usually gentle hand darted out, grabbing the tablet and tossing it onto his bed with unexpected force. It landed with a gentle thud after bouncing once.

Before Izuku could fully grasp the sudden shift, Ruby was already in his lap, straddling him with a fierce, almost predatory elegance. His breathing faltered. Beneath her skirt, her unexpectedly toned thighs pressed against his, and he could distinctly feel the sudden, undeniable warmth emanating from her.

"They believe our love lacks substance?" she murmured, her husky voice a low rasp that bypassed his every nerve and struck directly at his core, sending shivers through him. Her once-gentle hands now firmly grasped his shoulders, her fingers pressing just enough to deliver a tantalizing ache. "I believe… they require a demonstration."

Izuku's eyes widened in alarm, a desperate "W-wait, Ruby!" caught in his throat as she lowered her head. She pressed her lips against his, not in their usual sweet, tentative kisses, but with an intense, desperate hunger that left him breathless and shattered his every coherent thought. It was untamed, fierce, and exhilarating. Her lips pressed against his with force, her tongue darting beyond his teeth with an intense urgency, carrying the taste of mint and raw, unfiltered passion.

He was indeed surprised, his mind struggling to process it all, but his body? Ah, his body was alive with song. Every nerve ending cried out, yes, more, I want more! His hands instinctively settled on her waist, holding her firmly as she moved against him, a soft moan escaping her chest and resonating through his body.

"‘Insubstantial, is it?’ she panted, leaning back slightly to catch her breath, her eyes blazing like molten silver, her cheeks tinged with a vivid crimson hue." "Let’s find out just how insignificant this really is, Izuku Midoriya."

Emerald is my oldest, probably nearly as old as me. My wife and I had her when we were pretty young. Intentionally. I was living on limited time and we'd lived through hell trying to save the world so... how hard could raising a daughter be compared to that? Uhh... much harder, but less people died along the way. She followed my footsteps pretty far, even joining the Vale Special Forces. I wish I knew more about her life, but I got Recalled and I didnt see her again for a long time. We met again in the Afterlife and... well a lot went down I'd rather not talk about. We've grown closer as time went on, but due to circumstances I havent seen her in a long time...

My next oldest you could say... is Mara Calypso. While I was still alive and on my homeworld, I went on a mission to take down a cult of Destruction. A woman named Serena Calypso ended up helping me out. Unknown to me, she had taken a liking to me and the unique power of mind control. After a night a cant remember, I left her and the town we met behind. I dont know the details of what happened next but... Mara was born, and genetics don't lie. She's my daughter. I... I know there wasn't much I could have done for Mara with how little time I had left, and I should hate Serena for what she did... but I still feel horrible for not being there for Mara when I had the chance.

I have similar feelings for Avice, my next oldest. During my time as The Sentinel I had a mission to exterminate an entire planet... well an Empress didnt take too kindly to me killing off her planet and... I am weak to tall muscular woman.... I didnt think being dead would allow me to pass on my genetics but... you'd be surprised! Avice had a rough childhood because of my actions... and by the time I learned about her it was too late to help...

Speaking of my time as Sentinel, my successor as the leader of the Red Legion, Ghost. Her real name is Valerie Ryu, but I'm pretty sure she'd kill you if you called her that. She was never meant to become a Red Soul, her parents were assassins, good ones at that. Bordering on legendary, probably would have given that Wick guy a run for his money. But even a legend cant predict an accident. A car crash killed both her parents and Valerie, but they died quicker and Death... Death took what was left. I aided her on her mission, and her training in the Arena. Never really adopted her but, i'm the closest thing to a mother she has, and I'd take a bullet for her without thinking.

My next two daughters I adopted. Elsie and Akari. While I was traveling the multiverse with the unfortunately named IDIOTS crew, we encountered two worlds haphazardly stitched together. One used to be a normal magical fantasy earth and the other was literally hell. Elsie's parents died in the stitching process and her older sister was killed by a man named Ender, the sin of Lust. So I chopped his dick off and vowed to find her a new home... that home ended up being with me. I get attached to children in need okay! Akari was a... different story... She's a kitsune girl that started following us for the free food, and when her life was in danger I saved her. There was never a moment I adopted the two of them... it just sorta happened.

Then came the twins. They were a welcome addition to my life. As our journey across the multiverse came closer to its end, me and Layla grew closer and... things happened. I refrence back to me being weak to tall muscular women. We decided to name them after our parents, so Ruby and Kali came into this world. I had to raise both of them by myself for a while until... nevermind.

The one who i never expected. My only son, Voss, or Hemlock as most people know him. I thought i was adopting a fox to keep me company, well that fox was a 16 year old traumatized kitsune. I don't remember ever officially saying he was my son, it was another case of things just happening. He has a good heart, and a lot of love to give but... I'm worried I tought him some wrong lessons along the way...

And my youngest, little Yumi. Right now she's bearly a month old. She was born unexpectedly and at a horrible time for everyone around her... but I refuse to let circumstance color anyone's view of my daughter. Its been a while since i've had to take care of an infant and... I dont miss it. Yumi's special abilities dont make things easier. Like Ruby and Kali, she inherited my Storm, and like her other parent she inherited the ability to turn anything she bites or scratches into a bloodthirsty monster. Did I mention she's already teething? Its been hell, but she's adorable and I love her all the same.
