Future Problems
Pulled from my AO3 Account.Â
What follows are snippets of problems the warlords might come across if they went to the future with MC and had a child. [Side note: These were written before the introduction of Yoshimoto, Ranmaru and Motonari.]
Nobunaga â Son
Nobunaga meets with his sonâs history teacher at a Parent-Teacher conference. His son, named Hideyoshi, is failing history.
Teacher: Mister Oda, your son is not only consistently answering questions about the Sengoku Period incorrectly, but claims he knows for a fact that the history books are wrong. Weâre very concerned.
Nobunaga: Nonsense. Iâm something of an expert on that particular period. What is he saying thatâs incorrect? I will remedy it.
Teacher: *Hands him an open history book.*Â See here. Your son consistently gets these facts incorrect about Nobunaga Oda.
Nobunaga: *Reads.* What is this nonsense? I didnât⌠I mean, HE didnât do any of this. He was more concerned with unifying the country and making love to his wife.
Teacher:
Nobunaga:
Teacher:
Nobunaga: It seems as though my son is correct. Your history books are inaccurate.
Teacher: Get out.
Hideyoshi: Daughter
Hideyoshi is concerned about all the male attention his daughter, Mei, gets from boys. Sheâs 16.
Mei: Dad, he JUST invited me out for tea. Itâs just tea.
Hideyoshi: Itâs NEVER just tea, Mei. Tea is a date that leads to questions about yourselves and then you start to like each other and then you have to pretend youâre just interested in each other as siblings to escape the fact that your life belongs to Nobunaga andââ
Mei: Um⌠Dad.. Why would my life belong to uncle Nobunaga? And I like Hikaru as a boyfriend. Not as a sibling. When you like someone, youâre supposed to tell them your honest feelings.
Hideyoshi:
Mei:
Hideyoshi: Go to your room.
Mitsunari: Son
Mitsunariâs son, Ieyasu, is excellent at soccer. He wants to join the school team, but the school requires fathers to help coach.
Ieyasu: Dad, what are you doing up? Itâs 2:30 in the morning!
Mitsunari:
Ieyasu: Dad??
Mitsunari:
Ieyasu: DAD!!
Mitsunari: *Reaches out and pulls Ieyasu onto his lap.* Stay with me, darling. Iâm almost finished with this book on how to coach soccer. Be good for me and then we can go to bed and make love.
Ieyasu: STOP STOP STOP DAD STOP! I DONâT WANNA MAKE LOVE TO YOU!
MC: What is going on in heâIeyasu, why are you in your fatherâs lap?
Ieyasu: He thinks Iâm you! Heâs reading a book andâ
MC: Iâve told you about trying to disturb him while he reads. You should have known better.
Ieyasu: Mooommmmmmm. Hellllpppp.
MC: *Sighs.* Hang on, let me go find the cat.
Ieyasu â Son
Ieyasu is supposed to be having âThe Donât Be Mean To Girls Talkâ with Yuuto, who is six.
Ieyasu: And so, when youâre sure she likes you, you make sure she thinks you hate her. It will make her want you more. You donât have to throw rocks at her like you did in school today. Just tell her she is silly and brainless. She will love it.
Yuuto: Really? Because mommy said that boys who are mean to girls never marry nice beautiful women when they grow up.
Ieyasu: *Leans in close to whisper. * It worked for me.
Yuuto: *Gasps*
MC: IEYASU WHAT ARE YOU TELLING HIM?!?!
MasamuneâDaughter
Masamuneâs daughter, Tatsu, had her first kiss. Sheâs 15. Masamune just found out.
Masamune: What do you mean he kissed you and now wants a date? Where is this lad? Heâs awoken the One-Eyed Dragon!
Tatsu: Dad! It was just a kiss! I wasnât expecting it, but it wasnât bad. And heâs cute!
Masamune: He shouldnât have kissed you out of the blue like that! You donât kiss someone unless you both like each other and the mood is right!
MC: Is that so? I seem to recall someone kissing me without my permission shortly after we first met. Hmm.. What was his name? I canât seem to recallâŚ
Masamune:
Tatsu:
MC:
Masamune: Câmere lass. Iâll remind you!
MC: *Runs.*
Masamune: *Chases.*
MC: *Texts Tatsu* You owe me. Go on your date.
MitsuhideâDaughter
Mitsuhideâs daughter, Akira, has a new boyfriend. Mitsuhide is anxious.
Mitsuhide: We could simply have him over for dinner.
MC: Thatâs a great idea!
Mitsuhide: *Smiles.*
MC:
Akira:
Mitsuhide: *Innocently.* What?
MC: I know that look. Thatâs the âIâm going to torture himâ look.
Akira: Sheâs right. You look positively threatening.
Mitsuhide: *Happily.* Do I? We should have him over. I can just sit here and smile at him.
Akira: DADDDYYYY
Mitsuhide: Well, we know nothing about him!
Akira: Why donât you just look at his Facebook?
Mitsuhide: Because that takes all the fun out of it. I canât torture him for information I already have.
MC: Honey. Weâve talked about this a thousand times. Torture is illegal now.
Mitsuhide: *Pouts.*
KenshinâTwins
Kenshinâs son, Senso, and his twin sister, Heiwa are outside playing. They are play fighting in the front yard. Senso and Heiwa are sword fighting with wooden swords and Heiwa gets a bump on her head from a misplaced sword swing.
Kenshin: What is this? Heiwa, what happâyouâre bleeding. WHO HURT YOU? I WILL DESTROY THEM?!?
Heiwa: *Points to Senso.*
Senso: *Trembling and crying.* Dad⌠I didnât mean to. We were sword fighting like you and uncle Sasuke do and I hit her on accident. Please donât destroy me.
Kenshin: You were sword fighting? *Looks pleased.* Indeed. Well done, Senso. You won the duel.
Heiwa: But Dad! Iâm bleeding.
Kenshin:
Kenshin: Iâm in trouble. If your mother finds out about thisâŚ
MC: Finds out about what?
Kenshin: Uncle Shingen taught them how to sword fight.
MC: WHAT? I will have words with him!
Twins: *Giggle.*
Kenshin: Quickly texts Shingen an apology.
Shingen, who lives next door: *Reads text.* âŚShit.
ShingenâSon
Shingenâs son, Kaiyo (11), and his father are sneaking through the house late one evening.
Kaiyo: Are you sure, dad? Mom says weâre not allowed.
Shingen: Technically, your mother said we were not allowed before dinner. She didnât say we were not allowed in the evening.
Kaiyo: *Opens pantry. Takes out Chocolate Cake.*
Shingen: Atta boy. She said she hid it, but I watched her eyes. They flickered to the pantry. I knew it would be there. Our Moon Goddess is beautiful, but easily read.
MC: And you two donât know how to whisper.
Shingen: Weâve upset the Moon Goddess, son. Time to present an offering to her alter and hope we are forgiven!
Kaiyo: *Gives MC a bite of chocolate cake. *
MC: *Can no longer hold her frown.* Mmm.. The Moon Goddess approves of your offering. You can have a small piece. But then go to bed!
Shingen: My sweet Moon Goddess, you have a little chocolate on your lips. Please allow me to help remove it.
MC: *Blushes.* ShâŚShingen.. Not in front of Kaiyo.
Shingen: Kaiyo! Remember what I told you about when the Mood Goddess turns red?
Kaiyo: *Covers his eyes.*
Shingen: *Kisses MC and licks off the chocolate.* Mmm.. Heavenly.
SasukeâSon
Sasuke and his son, Kage, are in Sasukeâs home lab. Kage is 14.
Sasuke: And so we add a touch of this and boom! Homemade smoke bomb.
Kage: Cool!
Sasuke: Indeed it is! And if those boys bully you again and try to take your glasses, you throw this on the ground, and then spread out the spikes I made for you. Then you run.
*Sounds of MCâs footsteps approaching.*
Sasuke: Kage, remember what I taught you?
Kage:
Sasuke:
Both: *Whispered.* Ker-Vanish!
Both: Hide behind the lab desk.
MC: *Steps into the room.* Strange⌠I was sure I heard them. Maybe they are outside. *Leaves.*
Sasuke:
Kage:
Both: *Fist bump.*
YukimuraâDaughter
Yukiâs daughter, Hayami, comes home from school, crying. Sheâs 7 years old.
Yukimura: Baby, whatâs wrong?? Why are you crying?
Hayami: A boy at school called me names!! He said I was weird, and I run like a goat!
Yukimura: Let me see you run. Iâll tell you the truth.
Hayami: *Runs away and comes back.*
Yukimura:
Hayami:
Yukimura: Alright goat girl. Who taught you to run that way?
Hayami: MOMMMYYY!
Yukimura: SHHH!! I was kidding, baby. Donât tell your mom. Sheâll yell at me again!
MC: Tell me what?
Yukimura: Our daughter runs like a goat.
MC: YUKI!
KennyoâDaughter
Kennyo and his daughter, Reiki, are sneaking through the back door, another stray kitten in hand. Kennyo: Now remember. If Mom asksâŚ
Reiki: I donât know where it came from.Â
Kennyo: Exactly.
MC: And if Mom catches you in the act of bringing ANOTHER cat home? Then what will you do?
Kennyo: I shall fight dirty and present you with a sneak attack.Â
Reiki: *Hands MC the kitten.*
Kitten: *Mews pitifully.*
MC: *Sighs.* This is the last one. Seriously, you two. The house is full. *Takes the kitten inside.*
Reiki:
Kennyo:
Reiki: You think sheâs noticed the two we added yesterday?Â
Kennyo: Shhhhh. No.
STAN THE MESS OF THESE FAMILIES-
