Ah, look!
Henry is going to let loose!
He will leave a trail of broken hearted young ladies as he reaches for his Hippogriff!

I told you! I told you all!
RUN FOR THE HILLS!
 
I'm kind of expecting Henry to gain a reputation as a friendly and generally affable fellow.

So, assuming Saito shows up, he goes to meet Louise's big brother, expecting almost a male version of Cattleya.

Only to run into full Rule of Steel mode Henry because the little perv is messing with his baby sister.

He is going to hand Saito a broad head arrow and a pen with instructions to write his name on the arrow. That way if the little perv messes with his baby sister he knows there is an arrow with his name on it.

I think Henry's mom would be proud of him.
 
Quick Omake Because It's too funny to pass up on. (Notice, Consider Canon at your own decision. I will not remark on it.)

Karin-Chan's Magical Adventures in Parenting! Adventure Number One!

Karin could do it.

The babies in front of her were squirming, beloved bundles of chubby cheeks and gibberish gurgling that simply made her heart beat harder than ever. She could, however, do it. She had excused the servants, and was now standing in the room alone, in front of her two newly born children. One was her sweet Cattleya, the little girl with rosy cheeks simply giggling at whatever nonsense she spouted.

The other was...well, Henry.

Henry was quite grumpy, if she said so herself. He looked at her and her gibberish nonsense as if he was offended by it. He believed himself a big boy already, uh? Just a few months out of her stomach, and already he wanted to be independent? It wouldn't do! No, it wouldn't do! None of her precious cutely wubbly-wubbly cheeky children would ever leave her side until they were capable of surviving on their own in the harsh outside world!

"Goochie goochie goo," she said with a smile, twiddling her fingers in front of Cattleya who laughed appropriately and moved her arms. Henry did not bother doing it. Sometimes, she wondered if he wasn't simply tired due to some form of sickness that she hadn't recognized yet because she failed at parenting so hard her parents would be ashamed of her.

But she didn't fail, and thus she could do it.

"Here comes Cattleya," she said with a giggle, "And here comes Henry," she said with another giggle. "Look who's flying? You both are, yes you are!" with her wand out, she had managed it.

They were both flying, her precious babies, and giggling. Well, Cattleya was giggling. Henry was looking at her with the kind of pissed off look he always held, as if wondering when the torture would be over and when he could go back to sleep.

"Grumpy Henry doesn't like flying?" Karin said with a giggle, gingerly planting a kiss on his forehead. "Muh! You're so cute mother's going to eat you all up, you grumpy son of mine!"

In the end, she managed it.

She finally managed to make Henry laugh. Though it was because Cattleya had an accident that ruined her hair -since the other baby was flying over her head- but still...

She had made him laugh too!

She so was the greatest parent of them all! The Parent-Commander of the Parents Corps! Karin, the Heavy Mother-no, wait a minute, that sounded wrong!
 
Chapter Seventeen

Headmaster Osmond appeared unchanged. Perhaps his magnificent beard had a few centimeters less, but him and most of the teaching staff were unvaried. Colbert had perhaps a few more strands of hair on his head than not, and

I'd figure seeing them as flesh and blood would be a bit different than seeing them as animation or light novel illustrations, if you could even remember those after so many years.
 
Now I'm imagining Henry being like Tyrion Lannister with Wine.
 
Now I'm wondering if the other shoe about to drop is that Henry gets himself kicked out of the line of inheritance by being a shithead.
 
This needs to happen, not just a School Days reference but plenty of references to Japanese culture and entertainment.
The look on Saito's face as he tries to figure out how Henry knows these things would be hilarious.
This needs to happen. Confuse the fuck out of the Japanese schoolboy with your references Shade. Insert them into all of your conversations with him and when you're warning him about breaking your sisters heart use a frightening one.
 
That or at least one bastard child with another noble girl.
Never gonna happen. Contraceptives have existed since ancient times. It's only gonna be more effective and diverse with the existence of alchemy and magic. Shade's not gonna be stupid enough to do it without one.

Not to mention the squick factor of doing the deed with a girl with a considerable (mental) age gap.

How about Matilda de Sachsen-Gotha then? Sure her family is currently considered disgraced, but her farther was an Archduke of Albion, so they got to have some ties to the royalty. On the bonus side you would have two Void mages in the family that way.

"You should paint your flying machine red, so it goes three times faster. It'll be like a Red Comet!"

Except a bastard by Henry would be the ideal situation for a golddigger, so there is huge incentive for a girl to lie to him about taking contraceptives and refuse to get an abortion in the event of pregenancy.
