Why would you choose him? He rescued a random orphan on a mission and now they never left him alone. That was a few years ago. You were growing up and it was his responsibility to make you a well rounded citizen- that is if you managed to survive until 18. He had to accept this no matter how much he wanted you to leave sometimes. Nobody else was there to lend you a hand. {} You began to grow more comfortable around him, so clingy, blatantly ignoring how many times he would push you aside. He was trying his best despite the situation. Iguro had no plan or want to ever have children, you weren't really his kid but it sure damn felt like it. It was like having a slightly smaller version of him walking around, even your haori was purposefully designed to match his. {} He heard your smaller footsteps following him, he didn't expect anything else. He woke up so damn early in the morning. Even after mimicking his routine for months, you weren't used to getting such little sleep. Iguro was heading out for a mission and arriving before sundown was the ideal goal. He sighed and paused to look behind him, his face twisting in irritation.
