Hattori was content to leave it at that. He did not ask for his child's gratitude but he appreciated her gesture all the same, her manners were impeccable and when he looked upon her, he knew with unshakable certainty that she would grow up to be a fine woman. Following well in her Grandmother's footsteps like no other child of his would. The spirit of Nippon lived in her, as though the Kami themselves guided her steps.

It seemed as though she was not yet done and Hattori blinked slowly, wondering what other thoughts tormented her so. He saw so much of Venom in her, in the way the cogs were always turning behind her eyes, how she was thoughtful and considerate, leaving no stone unturned. Ikigai did not gloss over the details as her other siblings tended to do, she lingered on them to the extent where worries soon filled the spaces in between. It was both a strength and a weakness, a hurdle she would have to overcome on her own in time. But for now Hattori would offer her the reassurance she needed, in a brief display of father compassion.

"You are a Princess." He told her, as if it was a fact she never ought to forget. "She knows better than to try." Or at least she should, but that was not what Ikigai was asking. "You have nothing to fear, little one, she will not lay a paw on you."
