Yes, they all are named after types of tea. And yes, Shinji married Hiyori. And YES, the pair have more kids than any other family in the fanfic. There's a funny story to that---


Hiyori: Do you realize that of all the Soul Reapers and Arrancar alike, you and I have more kids than any other family? I mean, the most anyone else has is two. We have FOUR. What does that say about us?

Shinji: *sighs theatrically* Does this mean we have to stop having sex?
