I think if you're going to use them as more than a one-line extra, it would probably be better to remix them and a few others into (relatively) new characters, rather than a crossover-without-crossing-over. Maybe mix it up with some Kiddy Grade and Coyote Ragtime Show? (The Kiddy Grade lipstick-ribbon-weapon thing is crying out to be a Rare Skill, like Wing Road only smaller and whippy.) How you want to handle it really depends on whether you want them to be allies, competitors, or opponents, but one thing that springs to mind is if they're from the "frontier" regions beyond where the TSA has organized things after the chaos of the fall of the Belkan Empire, and are either hired as local guides/muscle or hire your bounty hunter persona because they're just as originally portrayed, using high-tech but with no more than somewhat dubious and untrained "esper" grade rare skills and want a mage along while looking for (objective.) Possibly some relic (not Relic) that Jail's organization got hints of but nothing solid enough to send the Numbers after since they were needed for more critical parts of the plan - but now there's Ford, an extra asset available to investigate.
Or just do what you already have planned, I'm just throwing things out here.
WRT siblings - as the youngest of three, I was the one getting talked into things, but you've nailed it by me. Sarcasm was minor and for humor purposes only.
But... but if you don't give your little sister a piggy back ride at the amusement park, how can she balance the ridiculously huge teddy bear she made the booth attendant break down crying by winning (this IS little-miss-throwing-knives we're talking about) on your head?
Maybe if she talks you into carrying it for her, by wrapping the arms around your shoulders ala piggyback ride...
...come on, I'm trying to set up random bystanders for hyperglycemic shock, here. Work with me, man!
And with Sein, no, a sunny disposition does not equal bubbleheaded. It's a very important distinction SI has noticed, and he'd beeter remember it if he doesn't want to make mistakes later.
