Hello, ok so hear me out this is for Nero being adopted by reader sooner, or even just mainstream story.
Nero being seen with reader so much that even tho Nero looks like a ctrl+v of Dante and Virgil, people around Redgraves close to dmc just start saying stuff like: "oh hey it's "reader's" kid! Or "hey it's reader's son! Hey Nero how are you?". Like yes Nero looks like his dad and uncle.... But that's reader's kid 100% to the people of redgraves lol.
Anyway I hope you've been doing good and hope you've been taking care of yourself. Hope you have a good day/night.
Omg that’s way too fucking adorable.
People not even questioning it and just universally accept him as honeys/readers son is too cute. Like people barely acknowledge he looks like Vergil and Dante and it’s just honeys kid lol.
I feel like that would not only be meaningful to honey but also to Nero himself. Considering what we know about Nero’s childhood it’s easy to tell that within fortuna he didn’t get much acceptance from the community. He got some from Kyrie and Credo and their parents but he still probably never had a proper sense of community or family with them. So him suddenly being accepted by Redgrave as a whole is really important to him. Being given smiles and waves across the street, even people stopping to ask how he’s doing and how honey is would be a lot for him in a good way. Especially when even with all the stuff with Dante and Vergil occur and he’s trying to unpack all of that, he’s still “honeys kid” and just Nero to everyone in Redgrave.
