Harper
Now is the perfect time. Perhaps not with the war, no, but in all the other ways that mattered. Mentally and emotionally ready, their relationship at its best, security in roles and personal strength. The Harper that had first arrived in Caido would not have ever been ready for this moment. They are exactly who they need to be in this moment to be nothing but welcoming and ecstatic over this new addition.
Harper can't help but give a bit of a smug expression at her admittance. "So I was right is what you're saying?" he teases, bright and happy as his hand falls away from his hair to pinch playfully at her thigh. She'd tried to convince herself that her vomiting the last time they'd seen each other had been from overeating. "Pays to be a worrywart sometimes, huh?" It ensured they'd found out much sooner than they might have otherwise. "Should we...change anything, about what we're doing? Being apart the way we are?" Happiness tampered down by responsibility and planning. He'd effectively raised and trained hundreds of young kids in his time as a vigilante. Even he can't drift on a cloud of bliss forever before his analytical mind takes over.

can we go back to the world we had?
with a love so sweet it makes me sad
