#weird how whenever people refer to raijin being a father they call him raiden

[raijinhasverybigpecs]

what are ur vibes on the japanese pantheon and babysitting? ik u touched on it in ur tags but like. what abt more detail. who is raijin most likely to trust to watch raitaro when he can’t (being a single dad and a busy thunder god is tough 😔) and who would he not (and why is it tsukuyomi lmfao. jk its tsukuyomi because he probably doesnt know how to handle kids). what kind of responsible adults tm are raijin’s siblings? u really opened my eyes with dilf raijin ngl. also i hope this question makes sense, i am awful with words lmfao

another meaty raijin ask i can sink my teeth into... thank you for my life king!! i’m putting it under a read more bc the answers to these asks always get very long and wordy 🤗

izanami is the mother of the japanese pantheon so i have to put her up here. she might lose points for limbs falling off but raijin being a momma’s boy means that she’d defs be the first person he goes to. not much to say here~

amaterasu would probably be the best babysitter in terms of niceness and responsibility but i also know for a fact she’d let raitaro get away with murder. definitely the busiest god out of all the options, takes raitaro with her to do errands if she has to babysit while busy. defs a queen who prints out the flashcards and has colouring books available, lots of ‘enriching’ activites available for raitaro lol

susano would be a good babysitter but i think he’d come off a little mean or get frustrated at times. raitaro would probably tell raijin about how mean susano was for making him eat his greens n do his homework (if that’s even applicable here...? lol). susano could also help raitaro refine his powers with the overlap between raijin and his godly domains lol. raitaro complains about being looked after by susano at first but always loves it eventually. if kushinadahime is there he’d definitely be above amaterasu though 😌

hachiman i would put equal with susano but susano’s got that storm power advantage. hachiman is definitely not bad by any means, he’d be very calm with raitaro and they’d probably do something nice like calligraphy. raitaro would probably find it boring unless hachiman trained with him or showed off his archery prowess lol

danzaborou is a last minute resort - not because he’s bad but because he’s not the most responsible babysitter. raitaro loves pranking people with danzaborou and always wants to see danzaborou but raijin, having some sense of responsibility, tries to dissuade him until he can’t any more and he has to relent lol

tsukuyomi probably just doesn’t like children or people in general and probably hates raijin for being loud all the time lol. tsukuyomi would just be incredibly awkward around kids and doubt raitaro would hide his true feelings around him. raitaro would probably let it slip that raijin hates tsuku’s ass lol. tsukuyomi would probably just go about his day as normal while dragging raitaro around (and so begins a family comedy about the wacky adventures between an unlikely babysitter and a spunky child)

kuzenbo has similar energies as danzaborou but i can’t imagine raijin would ever willingly go to him for help ever lmao

also i never established an age for raitaro lmao? i’m thinking 8 or something, not super young or a teenage i guess?? although who the hell knows how aging works when you’re a god
