I didn’t know how I wanted to paint my plant pots so I decided to paint them to match the plants 🥰 I know you can’t really see the begonia’s pot but that’s cause he’s a big floppy boy and I’m so proud of him. The waffle’s pot is purple because he’s a purple waffle.

I’m so happy with them.

White mini crewmate or Mini White is the only survivor (and kid) from Fruit's previous crew after another Impostor massacred the entire ship before it landed at MIRA HQ, Fruit impersonated a dead crewmate ans ate the other Imp so he can continue taking care of mini White until they're old enough to go out on their own.

Update on your feelings on Seb? Sorry if you are asked this tons

Haha *groans* ok ok ok.

I’m joking, haha!

Not much has changed.- Still easily able to detach Seb from The Whites- Still find enjoyment in what Seb brings to Rob’s character - Still enjoying that Seb is forcing Rob to view his life in terms of responsibility which he hasn’t done a lot in his life as he’s done exactly what he wants, when he wants- I would still feel extremely sad if Seb was taken away from Rob for good

But- Still wish this wasn’t how Rob was given a son- Still feel a little sad that this is how Aaron may be given a baby or ‘step son’

That said, I have thought a bit about this randomly and it does very much seem like they’re mirroring Rob and Seb quite a lot.

I still think that Rebecca will die and Seb will stay. That’s always been my thought and although I’ve loved the theories and found them mega fun and wished some of them were true, I’ve always believed Rob was the dad.

If Rebecca dies as a result of a car crash, that mirrors Rob’s mum’s death following a car crash and who did he mention recently? Pat

Jack Sugden was a serial cheater. Rob’s issues stem from that and his own bad decisions. I think he has learned and grown and isn’t the same person but it’s a reflection of Jack and I have always thought that. Rob never had the best role models.

Jack was a 'single father’ for a bit. Perhaps this is to provide Rob with the same experience.

Rob eventually had Sarah - warm, loving, gentle, understanding, kind and she is exceptionally special to him. If Seb stays I really do think that Aaron will be Seb’s Sarah. That’s quite a thing for me. If I think of it like that then I enjoy it. Sarah was ALWAYS dear to me as a kid. I adored her and what she was to Rob. I think Aaron would put all of his love and warmth into any child who needed it. His heart is so big and giving.

I also don’t think that this removes any possibility that Rob and Aaron wouldn’t have their own kids one day. I think it’s unlikely as we don’t know how long Danny and Ryan will stick around and they already have both (potentially) Seb and Liv so who knows?

It’s ALWAYS going to be a crass way to give them a baby. I’ll ALWAYS disagree with that. It is ALWAYS going to be cliched and lazy and gross. But there comes a point where you just think, well it has happened and I shall make the best of it. How many kids are the product of cheating in the hetero etc relationships on the show? Many. There are tons of characters raising someone else’s kid. It isn’t a story simply given to these characters because they can’t have a bio kid between them. Yes, it’s a gross storyline often used for gay/bi characters and yes, they could have done it in a very positive way with a fresh storyline based on adoption etc… but they haven’t.

I never wanted them to have kids. I’ve said it time and time again, I don’t think these two characters need kids to make them interesting or exciting. Kids are what you do when characters are boring or need spicing up. These two are fodder for TONS of storyline because their characters are so complex. That said, I do agree that Seb brings a unique aspect alive in Rob’s character and although Rob had never shown any interest in kids before, it has shocked his system and ever since he has been spiralling and it has brought more complexity and developed who he is, to me, in an interesting way.

If they continue to have Seb have that kind of effect then that’s interesting to me. I just don’t ever want them to be lumbered with a kid and become boring because that’d ruin them for me.

So I don’t mind it all. I like Seb. He’s an innocent being who has no control over how he arrived in this world. He’s a little dude. He’s here and he needs taking care of and I want someone to do that well. Part of me, believing that they are keeping Seb with Rob and by virtue, Aaron, is kind of endeared because what kid wouldn’t want to be cuddled and cared for and loved by Aaron Dingle? I mean, he’s everything you’d want as a kid. He’s fun, warm, kind, practical… he’s lovely. I think Seb would be very lucky to be co-parented by someone like Aaron.

It all hinges on how Aaron feels about all of this and I think they’ll provide us with this and his development once all this White stuff is finished with.

This is just my view though. Some are really not enjoying this and are finding it hard and we should be kind to those people. Who knows what will happen but you asked for an update and there it is !! :)

It's White's turn to babysit the minis! (Cyan not pictured cause I don't have a bright enough blue)

I could accept Robron raising Seb if it’s done in a realistic way. Not just Aaron after the reunion being suddenly happy to play dad. I think it needs to be a gradual process and show that it is difficult for him and for Robert to realise this and try and help him through it.

I agree.

I mean, I’m not a fan of Aaron being lumbered with a baby at all as I think he’s too young (not in age necessarily as he’s 27 which is a fine age but more in mentality and what he wants from life etc). I can see him being an awesome dad down the line but I think he’s too young yet.

That said, I think, as you say, if it’s a gradual development and the inclusion of Seb in their lives doesn’t turn these two characters into boring, mundane, shadows of their former selves then I can deal. I just still think they were so very interesting without babies and seeing as baby stories and babies in general tend to bore me or put me off, I’ve always been so wary of them adding kids to any of my favourite couples but that’s just a thing personal to me, I think!
