The German Crosses, one above the Iron Cross and slightly covered by the suigintou's hair and the one attached to her tie (cant find better word) seem a lot like they're just photoshopped there. Along with the ring and the skull on the hat..

Others look pretty okay.

    I think Guin's comics aren't really trying to be accurate to the lore.
    Red and Cuora here are children and are being spoiled by the old man.
    And, man oh man, do I love to see these youngsters having fun with their gramps!

    Nah, creepy is what was possibly done to make her the "hunter of wolves" she is still being deprogrammed from being. Wanting to be fed with a baby bottle? That's mid-level to minor for someone who in canon doesn't want people to get too close to her because her first instinct would be to cut them. Finding the situation uncomfortable, is understandable though.

    I can see where they are coming from, but yeah, even from a lore perspective this isn’t too weird. Red was denied several years worth of normal growth, but is still relatively young.

    That, and, well, I have seen this kind of thing happen for children that didn't really have any parental figure very early in their life (and actual innocuous scenarios of this as well). It is the seeming image of it looking very comfortable and closeness that makes them jealous. Parental pampering essentially.

    The best thing is to let them do this, but don't allow them to get overly attached to the act. Well, I haven't personally had to take care of those cases since I didn't have the training (just assisting for the summer) but I saw 3 "cases" (technically 2) of this. Before the end of the summer that childish behaviour had stopped for 2 out of the 3 and the 3rd one was slowly getting over it.

    It is still often a case of very severe lack of intimacy in early childhood... that, or simply a child saw something like this on a tv or somewhere else and wanted to copy it (which was the case with the first one that stopped after the first experience of doing it).

    Seriously though, even with the above mentioned cases, folk shouldn't be so quick to jump on the "it's creepy" gun. When I was 4-6 I saw someone putting baby powder on an infant in a comic (yes, it was french comic, and no, there was no nudity) and decided to replicate this since the stupid me thought "hey, the child looks happier, I wonder why it looks happier. Let's test and see if it is fun".

    Long story short, don't put strong cooking spices (dust form) on your bottom. You will be sore afterwards.

    I agree with you about all of your points.

    Grumpy Nun: "Keep it down Clumsy, you have too much fun."

    Froggy Nun: "I think our kayak is kaput."
    Sheep Nun: "More like our teamwork is kaput."

    Spicy Nun: "Calm down, Star!"
    Star Nun: "We will win this, I don't know what this is but we will win this."

    Awwww, Duckling stands on Duck.^^ Though considering this is a lake one might expect that a lot more ducks would accompany the Nuns here.
