Pregnancy

Would be super overprotective of his s/o during the pregnancy; no heavy lifting, no excessive working, proper diet, plenty of rest, whole nine yards

Having been through this once before (if after Flayn), Seteth would be the calmest at finding out his s/o was pregnant, externally at least

He’d still be terrified internally

If it is Flayn, he’d be a nervous wreck the entire pregnancy, heart racing at every little hiccup or day when s/o didn’t feel the greatest

Would often place his hand over s/o’s bump once it started showing

Especially if they hadn’t announced it yet; most people would credit it to Seteth’s guarded nature

If it’s the second-born, Flayn would be delighted; she’d love being a big sister so much

Would absentmindedly trace his Crest on his s/o’s stomach; the baby would usually kick wherever he was

Would accompany s/o everywhere, even on the smallest trips to town

He’d nearly pace a hole in the floor during the birth, barely keeping himself from snapping at anyone who spoke to him

Also would be more worried about the labour than s/o; “It’s fine, Seteth darling, I promise” -s/o probably

Fatherhood

Would tear up the first time he held any of his kids

Overprotective dad? You’d find Seteth’s picture in the dictionary

The biggest co-sleeper; he’d lie awake for hours watching his family sleep and wondering how he came to deserve such a blessing

He’d trace his fingers along the tip of their ear, smiling to himself

Would keep his kid(s) away from warfare and weapons as much as possible

The only weapon they would ever see might be the Spear of Assal (if Seteth doesn’t lock it away)

Would have as many kids as s/o wants, so long as the risk is minimal; the last thing he would ever want is to endanger her or make her choose who’s life to save

Tough parent; he has boundaries and rules, and those should be followed

Wants his kid(s) to try their best at everything they do; that’s all he asks of them

Though he’s reserved with physical affection in public, he can’t deny if his child asks

“I’m not mad, just disappointed,” “You know better than that” - his go-to’s for correction; also an “actions have consequences” type; he isn’t afraid to correct and/or justify behavior if it’s warranted; he’ll extensively discuss with them why it had to be done, however

Would lay down his life for his family, no questions asked

Sings/hums Nabatean lullabies to get them to sleep

Would take them for rides on his wyvern once they were older

S/o would have to drag this man away from his child’s bedside when they fell ill; Seteth would graciously and invariably let his own health slip to take care of his offspring

The kind of parent to plan every family trip/outing; he’s very meticulous, but the trips are always fun, at least
