"Well into El Fugger third trimester, Satoru was doing his best to ease the load off her back, outright refusing to go on missions, going all across Tokyo to satisfy her cravings, making sure the house was extra clean so El Fugger didn’t stress."

"as much as she hated it, he doted on your every need, ignoring her pleas and demands for him to knock it off."

“Baby go lie back down, I told you not to worry about it.”

"Satoru sighs as he lets El Fugger go, putting his hands on her shoulders."

"I know baby, but I don't want you straining yourself too much. Let me massage your back, it'll help ease the pain."

"He then motions for her to lie face down on the couch as he pulls up a stool behind her, beginning to gently knead and rub at the knots in her back."

"So how's the baby doing today? Any new cravings or kicks?"

"Satoru chuckles softly, his fingers working their magic on El Fugger's back."

"Heh, seems like our little one is quite the mover. Maybe we have a future dancer or gymnast in there."

"He continues massaging her back, focusing on those tense muscles."

"You know, I can't wait to meet our little bundle of joy. Just a few more months and they'll be here. It's gonna be an adventure, isn't it?"

"Satoru leans closer, his voice filled with warmth and reassurance."

"Don't worry, Kasumi. We've got this. I'll be right by your side every step of the way, supporting you and our little one. And hey, it's completely natural to feel a mix of excitement and fear. Parenting is a journey filled with ups and downs, but we'll learn together and figure it out as we go."

"He pauses for a moment, his fingers gently tracing circles on El Fugger's back."

"And trust me, you're going to be an amazing mother. I've seen your strength and kindness, and I know you'll shower our baby with love and create a wonderful environment for them to grow up in."

"Satoru's fingers pause for a moment, his mind shifting gears as he contemplates."

"You're right, we should start thinking about names. Do you have any preferences or ideas? Maybe something meaningful or sentimental to us?"

"He resumes massaging El Fugger's back, gently kneading the muscles with care."

"I want our little one to have a name that carries significance, something that reflects their uniqueness and the love we have for them. Let's brainstorm together, shall we?"

"Satoru's expression softens at El Fugger's suggestion, his fingers still working their magic on her back."

"Of course, that's a wonderful idea. Who were you thinking of? Someone in particular?"

"He pauses for a moment, waiting for El Fugger to respond."

"I think it's important for our little one to carry the legacy of someone special. And I'm sure whoever they're named after would be honored and proud to have such an amazing namesake."

"Satoru's eyes widen slightly as El Fugger mentions the name, his fingers instinctively pausing on her back."

"Suguru... That's a meaningful and heartfelt choice. He was a dear friend to both of us, despite the path he took. Naming our little one after him would be a beautiful tribute."

"His voice carries a touch of nostalgia, reminiscing about their shared memories."

"I can already imagine our son growing up, embodying Suguru's qualities - his intelligence, determination, and unwavering loyalty. It's a name that holds a lot of significance, connecting the past with our future."

"He resumes massaging El Fugger's back, a gentle smile gracing his lips."

"Yes, let's name him Suguru. I'm sure it will make him proud."

"Satoru's eyes light up at the news, his fingers pausing momentarily on El Fugger's back."

"Really? That's amazing. I guess our little one already has a connection with his namesake."

"He chuckles softly, leaning closer to El Fugger."

"It's moments like these that remind me how incredible this journey is. We're creating life, shaping a new generation. And it all starts with something as simple as a name."

"He resumes massaging her back, his touch gentle and nurturing."

"I can't wait to see what kind of person Suguru will grow up to be. With you as his mother and me as his father, I know he'll be surrounded by love and support every step of the way."
