So, an idea that came to mind as a result of seeing those Adult and Child Nanoha and Fate pics.
This would be Season 2 material as it would come after everyone learned that the Metacontinuity *is* home now.
The idea is thus.
In Season 1's denouement, Benjamin finally takes charge and lays down the gauntlet for all the girls vying for him. However, that is not to say that there isn't still emotional turmoil for some of the parties involved.
I can see Fate and Nanoha being especially fretful as they had major roles in starting The Big Brawl in the first place, ergo feeling that they had gravely betrayed Ben's love and trust in them.
Beldandy is worried for them, but it's hard to comfort these sorts of people. But even a Goddess needs inspiration.
She's not sure if it was the Ultimate Force Program or just pure luck, but passing by Benjamin at one point, she overheard this song. (The regulars over in Hangar 13 should recognize this one.)
A Letter to My 15-Year-Old Self.
For those that haven't heard it, it's a real tear jerker - the good kind - about how a fifteen year old girl is writing letters to her adult self about all her sorrow and heartbreak, and her adult self is writing back that she needs to be strong and have faith in herself.
This is exactly what Nanoha and Fate need.
She goes over to the main-line Nanoha universe - sometime between StrikerS and Vivid - finds the adult Nanoha and Fate, and explains the situation. The two agree - while Vivio is at school, they will meet with their younger selves and console and encourage them.
Belldandy brings them over on the appointed day. The adult Nanoha and Fate have a bit of a cute-gasm at seeing their younger selves, making the younger counterparts blush. But as they talk, they realize that these two are already very different people that who they were at that age... but they understand why.
"Tell us about this Benjamin? What is he like? What did he do to capture your hearts?"
The younger ones spill, and the older ones are impressed... and a bit envious. They've known many male figures in their youth who were both kind and strong. However, it was rare to see one that was not only kind and strong, but also willing to express his righteous fury as often as they did without becoming cruel or arrogant.
And then they got to Alicia.
Adult-Fate was in tears.
The Adults then asked about the others: Madoka and Homura, Sayaka and Kyoko, Ruby and Weis, and Hotaru.
They are impressed to say the least. The adults then counsel their younger counterparts. Such arrangements aren't so unusual on Midchilda. They'd even considered it themselves, but no one quite like Benjamin had ever entered their lives. If Vivio ever got to wanting a younger brother or sister, they would have to rely on ova-fusion.
Their younger selves will have to learn to work with their new-found sisters - to learn to love each other as family. Yes, it is hard. But if they truly wish to stay with Benjamin, and he really is that wonderful of a person, then they must become a family for real. Their Elders know that it's not easy - even they have had their own spats before, even if they never lasted long. Something this good never comes easy. But it can be worthwhile.
Besides, do they honestly want to pass up the the chance to give Vivio such a big and adoring family? .... Didn't think so.
They part ways here - Vivio will be home soon, and it's best not to confuse her. She is still a bit fragile from her past experience.
The Adults watch them go, hope burning in their hearts on behalf of their younger selves, and happy that they've had an opportunity that they never got.
The Youngsters go with their heads filled with the wisdom of their older selves. They know what they have to do now. They just need to swallow their pride and extend the olive branch. The rest, from that point, will be up to the others and Benjamin. And he has already made it clear that he will not tolerate malcontents spreading misery in his house.
Yes. It will be worth it. He has done so much for them. And they have so much love to give to him in return.
