Let's just say that if there is a Nuremberg Trial as they were in our timeline, the German government will not be in favor of such a trial.
They want to clean their house, instead of letting others do it for them.

That won't happen, at least not without significant Allied supervision.

I just said that if it happened, the German government will be very resistant to it. Not that they would not accept it.

then, I can only assume that the negotiations did not go well for either party ...
well, it's time to bring out that genius and create things that allow the two sides to be equal, war and civil war

The Thing is, the German Republic is now dealing with a civil war, in addition to continued hostilities with the Allies and the Soviet Union.
The situation that it finds itself in is very difficult
We're far to young to be accepted as a trial lawyer, a diplomat, nor a judge.
Even if we had the skills, the statute in Germany would not allow us to be one anyway until we are of legal age.

oh god how dare you assume we would choose the pacifist option ...
we will create bombs, many, miniature and all kinds.
and we will discover how more or less to create nuclear bombs and we will tell the scientists..we will bomb the world until the stone age if they do not accept our terms or give us some that satisfy us.
and who knows what else we will do ...

I'd think Hans Oster would prefer we were not carrying out a war of terror on the Nazi's and Hydra. it's bad enough we are traumatized from being in a concentration camp.
Plus the Old man would not allow us to do so.
And the War is almost over.

Yeah, our kid seems like he would want to avoid being nearly as bad as the Nazi's and Hydra after the shit they put him through and everything he has experienced. We also want Germany to become better, not keep pulling the same exact shit it was doing under the Nazi's.

The End of War
--[X] "But the war is lost, we can't win, can we? Britain, the Soviets, the Americans, all have sworn to bring us down. If we're defeated, we have to ensure that Germany will win the peace. Let us be gracious in defeat and perhaps our foes will be gracious in victory. If we help them with Hydra and the SS, maybe we can save Germany as a nation." Your pause. "Or we can watch it all burn and hope for the best, just like the Führer did."
It took a moment for you to find the words to say, as you wondered, just how important they might be. They might be discounted, but you were sure they would not be.
After all, despite everything, you had become very instrumental in the assassination of Adolf Hitler. That bomb was all you're doing, even in the way it was designed. You took a deep breath and found yourself saying nothing.
Fear had taken your voice and robbed your courage to speak to these men. These men, whom, at least in some way, were guilty, of inaction.
For a moment, you were alone.
Then the Old Man placed a hand on your shoulder. "It's alright, speak the truth."
"But the war is lost, we can't win, can we?" You asked.
There was a moment where everyone was stunned to silence with your words. Yet reassuring hands kept you steady and calm. The Hands of the Old Man were enough to keep you from devolving into something of a bundle of nerves.
"Britain, the Soviets, the Americans, all have sworn to bring us down. If we're defeated, we have to ensure that Germany will win the peace." You stated.
"We have won the Peace, Hitler is dead." Stauffenburg stated.
"Yes. But Himmler still fights with the SS, and other Nazi criminals remain at large. Hydra still fights us and the war and promises to save Germany with a WunderWaffen that will change the world. But those two… terrorist organizations are not the German Government, nor do they represent the German Government that represents the German people. Let us be gracious in defeat and perhaps our foes will be gracious in victory."
"You have that much faith in their common humanity, even after the great suffering that has been caused by Hitler's war?" It was Becks turn to speak. He was curious, very curious. But he was still listening with intention. As if his mind was not made up.
"If we help them with Hydra and the SS, maybe we can save Germany as a nation." You pause, no longer needing The Old Man's Touch to be confident in yourself. "Or we can watch it all burn and hope for the best, just like the Führer did."
There was silence in the room. Among these men, who had for so long, fought against Hitlers Germany
A clicking from Beck said it all. "There are those in the Reichstag that have been calling for peace. They have motioned for the secession of hostilities. We will begin to hear them out."
Reward: Germany begins the road to peace.
Gain (.5) to your charisma score.
Gain the Skill Diplomacy (⅕): You are a student of diplomacy, being able to reason and argue for a position that may not be entirely of your liking.
-[X] Pray: You feel empty inside. Perhaps God can help you feel whole. To stop feeling so sad. Rolled:D100 => 5
January 12th, 1945
It was sad.
That was all you felt as you sat alone in the room that The Old Man gave you, a Torah, translated to German, one that somehow survived the burnings and the dismantling of your people in Germany.
You had felt so sad, and you thought that nothing could save you from it.
Yet you continued to pray, to the Almighty that was above you, that could protect you.
And asked why?
Why did your people have to suffer this horror?
Why had he abandoned you?
And you heard nothing in return.
Reward:
It does not get easier. Nor does it get harder. The day just continues. Without a single thing changing.
You want to feel better.
You want to feel yourself getting better, that the horror is over.
You don't.
Your Faith is questioned in a way that you do not want to be answered. Not now at least.
You feel hopeless.
-[X] Talk About the Future: The Old Man wants to talk to you. He wants to… speak about what the future may hold for you. Rolled:D100 => 57
March 1st, 1945.
The Old Man was quiet as he took a sip of his tea. "You know thanks to you, I haven't drunk a single beer in about a month. Quite the feat."
You continued to poke at the tin of rations that were provided as dinner tonight. The rationing was soon going to be coming to an end, once the treaties were signed, and the War was officially over.
He looked towards the table, and to you, and you felt his calming gaze upon you. "Are you alright?"
"Not hungry." You replied.
"Hm…" He stated as he took a seat across from you. "You are scared about what may come?" He leaned forward. "I am too."
Your face seemed dumbstruck, as you stared into the blind eyes of Hans Oster. "I am afraid, that I might lose you, a boy whom… has saved my humanity."
"Saved you? I thought I should be the one saying that to you?" You asked.
"I have long since lost my pride in holding that over you." He stated solemnly. "Every day, I try to see you with the Sight God has granted me, and… try to understand how resilient you are, and feel that we are not lost." He then gave a rare sight.
A Genuine Smile.
"Perhaps one day, you can teach the world how to keep hope as you do." He stated.
He paused, letting out a long sigh. "I hope you do not mind me asking one selfish question of you then."
He showed papers. Adoption papers. "My wife and children do not know that I have been hiding you while in Berlin. I would rather not keep secrets anymore."
Would you accept me… as your adoptive father?

Adoption: I honestly don't know whether I want to do this or not, so I'm holding off on this until I see some arguments one way or the other.
The End: This looks very important.
New Skill: I really do feel like we should do this, although I'm not sure if I want to do Stealth or something else. Medicine or Pharmaceuticals or something along those lines sounds like something we could make a company out of, although doing so is going to be difficult considering our age.

I'd strongly suggest doing these two. We are in a golden opportunity to take advantage of the situation since Germany has the potential to become an economic powerhouse as is. With us backing it it's pretty much a guarantee since we are a super genius. Besides that doing so would potentially give us a lot of influence over Germany and it's development. Might even be able to turn Germany into Genosha 2.0, as in a place tolerant of all sorts of people including mutants depending on how things go.
Also if we want to be able to go the Tony Stark/Iron Man route we are going to need a ton of money.
Besides that would also suggest looking for our parents. Doubt that they survived but should try to look for them at least.

Don't you mean cellphones? Telephones were already invented long before 1945.
But what would we base our company around? Right now our skills are 1/5 in Diplomacy, 2/5 in Radio, 3/5 in Explosives, 3 in Reading, 2 in Writing and 0.2 in Jewish Theology. Of those, only Radio and Explosives seem like things we could build a company around, and I'm not sure Explosives are a good idea considering that Germany is heading into a period of disarmament, while I don't think a 2/5 is good enough to found a company with.

Actually, It is extremely important in what is to come next.
I'm not telling you what exactly, but something big is coming.
But is it really?
Remember, While Henrich is 8 years old, he grew up in a time where he had to hide his own Jewish heritage to not get executed.
The problem is, who would invest in an 8 year old genius after a world war. We have no name, and our only connection is a German General, and our only claim to fame is blowing Hitler to Hell with a bomb we made.
All your skills can be used. Writing can make a novel or essay.
Explosives... nuff said.
Radio: You can try your hand at telecommunications.
even Reading can help make certain skills go BRRR!
Indeed.
And the World wars, and prologue is almost over.

But we did not do the bomb planting.
It took an entire conspiracy to do it.
WE just made one helluva bomb.
And while future meme culture will call us awesome for blowing Hitler to High Hell, we still need to get to that point.
