This is not really a chapter, it is just the information I feel like giving to all of you. A quick summary of the characters you might say.

I am of course using the characters from the Free! anime and they will be as similar to the original ones as possible.

As you may have already figured from the summary I have created a family where Makoto is the father and Rin, Rei, Haruka and Nagisa are his adopted children. Rei being the oldest, Haruka and Rin in the middle and Nagisa being the youngest. Haruka and Rin are twins, Rin is the older one and Haruka is the younger one.

Since I am making the use of their dates of birth I figure I should inform you of them too. Rei's, Nagisa's and Makoto's are all similar to the on the Free! Wiki. I give up their ages at the beginning of the story (The end of June) and as the story moves on they will all grow older. Now Rin's and Haruka's birthday is more interesting because Rin's birthday is in February and Haru's is in June I made a calculation and found the date eactly in the middle between the two, April 18th.

I also figured a specifying of Makoto's job. I do mention where he works and somewhat what he is doing but I specified it a bit more from a doctor to a children's doctor. I don't know, I can just really picture him working with children. In episode 8 of ES he really seems to enjoy it and both in that episode and all the times when he is with Ren and Ran he seems to be good with children.

In addition to ages I should maybe also inform that in this story Ren and Ran are grown ups too.

I guess that is all the information I can come up with for now. If I come across more I will leave it in the A/N's.

Enjoy!
