Loid Forger

Loid Forger (ロイド・フォージャー) is the main protagonist of the SPY x FAMILY series. He has discarded everything about his past to work for his country as an undercover spy who acts under the codename "Twilight" (〈〉).

For his current mission, he is required to marry and have a child, thus he enters a marriage with Yor Briar and becomes the adoptive father of Anya Forger.

Appearance
Loid is a man of unknown age with short, disheveled blond hair, blue eyes, and light skin. His hair is often slicked backed to varying degrees, depending on the occasion. He is quite tall and has an athletic build.

He is often seen wearing a light green three-piece suit with a red tie when outside. He wears a lapel pin on his left lapel, in the shape of a dagger with the symbol of WISE.

When at home, he wears a plain white t-shirt with long black pants.

As a psychiatrist, he wears a lab coat over his shirt and tie.

Personality
As a spy, his personality is very cold and efficient for his job, doing whatever it takes to complete the mission, from joining terrorist organizations to dating his target's daughter to becoming a father. However, he is shown to have a kind personality as shown when he rescued Anya Forger, even risking his identity as a spy.

Loid's past as a powerless war orphan, feeling despair and isolation, has seemingly stuck with him into his adult years and becomes his motivation as a spy to create a world where children wouldn't have to cry. He sincerely empathizes with Yor Forger about sacrificing themselves for the sake of others and their beliefs, becoming the deciding factor for Yor's decision to marry him.

Contrasting his current personality and profession as a spy, he was an honest child and rarely lied to his parents. When he did lie to his father to trick his father into giving him pocket money to buy a soldier set, he quickly felt guilty for lying, almost confessing to his father immediately afterwards, and wishing to work for money to pay his father back. After his dad's disappearance during the Ostanian raid of his hometown, he felt even more guilty about his lie and vowed to tell his father the truth when he would return.

History
Twilight has discarded everything about his past in order to work for the country of Westalis in opposition to the country of Ostania. Hence, he has no real name and his current name is merely an alias. According to his falsified background as "Loid Forger", his wife passed away two years ago and he has been raising Anya as a single father since then.

Not much is known about his previous life, not even his real name or age. It is shown that he was a war orphan when he was a child and then eventually became the spy known as Twilight. He rarely remembers memories of his childhood, no longer being able to recall his mother's face.

As a child, Loid was raised in Luwen, Eastern Westalis, living alongside his father and mother. His father was strict with a pacifistic view on war, while his mother was very loving towards him and often sang him lullabies. Their conflicting views on parenting Loid resulted in them arguing frequently with each other, much to Loid's distress.

He was good friends with three other boys, who he frequently played games with in an old army storage depot he found, giving each other army-related nicknames such as "Major", "General", and "Advisor". He desired to join the army together with his friends when they became older, wanting to "kill all those awful monsters from the east". However, his father deeply disapproved of his ambition and activities, hitting him and berating his ignorance of Ostanians and approach towards conflict. Feeling left out due to all his friends having soldier uniforms and toy guns, he ended up lying to his father to get pocket money and buying the soldier set, despite his sense of guilt.

Later on, he changed his mind about playing with his friends from guilt and left their hideout. Shortly after this, the Ostanian Army crossed the border and began to attack the eastern provinces of Westalis, launching a bomb at the army storage his friends used as a hideout. They continued to attack the rest of Luwen, killing the croquette lady besides him. He is only saved from a piece of rock by his helmet, left with a deep gash. After evacuating his hometown with his mother, they stayed with her relatives in Kielberg. Despite this, they were inevitably attacked by another air raid, which kills his mother, something that traumatizes the boy greatly. He is then left to survive on his own amidst the chaos.

Having lost everything he cared about in his life and with only his hatred toward Ostania left, he joined the Westalis army under the identity of Roland Spoofy while lying about his age. From there he fought in the East-West conflict, using his skills as a tactician to win his battles. On one of his posts he encountered a man who got caught in one of his traps.

Introduction Arc
Twilight disguises as Edgar and meets with his investigator before to purchases photos and negatives, providing evidence that the foreign minister uses a toupee. After obtaining the evidence, he leaves right before the real Edgar shows up. That night, he breaks up with Karen, having no more use of her, after using her to get information on her father Edgar. He follows this up by burning the photos. The next day, Twilight receives a new mission. He needs to get close to Donovan Desmond, but since he only goes at social gatherings at the private school his son attends, Twilight needs to get a wife and a child, and enroll the child at the same school. As the peace between the East and West may depend on the mission, Twilight accepts.

He forges his new identity of Loid Forger, a psychiatrist and gets an apartment. He then goes to a shady orphanage and looks for a smart kid that can pass the exam. He is recommended Anya, who then impresses him with her solving a crossword puzzle. However, in reality she is a telepath and managed to trick him into adopting her. While on a shopping trip, he notices that Anya may not be that smart, but she starts to cry, not wanting to be abandoned. Causing a scene, Loid panics and offers to buy her peanuts to calm her down. Rattled by her irrational behavior, he borrows books on childrearing, to try and understand her better. He then says that after his mission is complete, he plans on sending Anya back to her orphanage, saying that there is no future for them.

The next day, he heads out to meet with Franky Franklin and wishes to leave Anya home, but she keeps following him. He ends up barricading the front door and trapping her inside. Meeting with Franky, he obtains an application, exam appointment and answers for the school. Franky also gives him all the info he could find on Anya, but it's only from the last year, where she was adopted and returned four times. Returning home, Loid notices the barricade was tempered with and finds an ambush inside. He takes out the men, but realizes Anya has been kidnapped. Loid then disguises as one of the men and heads to their base. There he recovers Anya and takes her outside, telling her to get to the police. Recalling his dislike of children and his past, Loid remembers that he became a spy in order to create a world where children won't have to cry and returns into the building. After setting up traps and beating all men, he points his gun at Edgar and reveals he knows everything about his daughter Karen and if he wishes for her to have a normal life, he must stop chasing Twilight.

Leaving the building, he is surprised to see Anya outside, who wishes to stay with him. Understanding her feelings, Loid accepts, but explains that they need to change houses. He helps her study for the exam and makes her memorize the answers. Anya then manages to pass the exam, which relaxes Loid, but the next day, he receives a letter informing him that phase two of the enrollment will be an interview which requires both parents in attendance, and he now needs to find a wife.

Loid first tries to disguise Franky as a woman, but both he and Anya see that Franky is unfit for the role. He then gets Franky to collect and copy all the files of unmarried women from Berlint City Hall so he can look for a candidate to be the family's mother. He explains that most of the female agents have been wiped out in spy hunts, with the remaining unable to suffice. After Franky points out Anya's appearance not looking like someone of a high standard, Loid takes her to a tailor to get her measurements done. There he meets Yor Briar, who is able to slide past him and notice his gaze. He considers her to be a good candidate for the wife role, but changes his mind after noticing how intuitive she is. But after Anya initiates a conversation between the two, he learns about Yor's situation, and why she needs a pretend boyfriend to bring to her coworker's party. Loid decides to help her, under the condition that she help him with Anya's school interview by playing as her mother. Yor accepts his conditions and the two agree to meet up for the upcoming party.

However, Loid soon receives a mission to recover stolen treasures from Westalis and take down the smuggling ring responsible. The mission just so happens to be on the same day as the party, so he brings Franky with him to complete the mission faster. Franky is hesitant, but Loid convinces him by offering to let him take one of the stolen items for himself. But the two of them underestimate the size of the smuggling ring, barely escaping them in a chase which leads into a car crash. After Loid seemingly finishes off the group, he makes his way to the party. He shows up right before Yor is about to leave, and in a disoriented state, introduces himself as her husband. A jealous Camilla tries to humiliate Yor by bringing up Yor's previous work where she would be summoned to hotel rooms for special "massages" (which in truth, was actually Yor carrying out her assassinations). To everyone's surprise, Loid expresses his admiration for her working hard to provide for her younger brother, moving Yor. Loid excuses the both of them and they leave the party together.

After leaving, they are soon pursued by remnants of the smuggling ring, and Loid leads them to an old factory, taking out a few of them during the chase. Yor questions Loid on the situation, but he manages to convince her that their pursuers are patients suffering from hysteria and that he is treating them with the latest method of "concussive therapy". He also thanks her after she takes out one of their pursuers. While running away, Yor proposes to Loid, which surprises him so much that he freezes up and trips over. Yor clarifies that she wants an extension of his original condition, and that being married will be a good camouflage to keep her away from suspicion. Loid agrees and tries to find a diamond ring he took from the treasures to propose to her, but discovers that it has been lost. He notices a grenade near an unconscious smuggler and grabs it before ducking behind a generator. Loid pulls the pin and hurls the grenade at the smugglers while using the pin as an engagement ring. The smugglers blow up as Loid says his vows to Yor.

Admissions Interview Arc
At 128 Park Avenue, Loid helps Yor move into the new Forger Residence where Anya "helped" with cleaning, and Loid tells Yor that he back-dated their marriage certificate by a year in order to avoid suspicion from Eden Academy. After Yor settles in, Loid holds a mock interview with disappointing responses from Yor and Anya. He concludes that it may have been too soon for an interview, deciding that the family needs to experience the culture and knowledge of the upper class and brings the family on an outing. Loid brings them to an opera hall in order to become more refined, but the experience simply leaves Yor confused and Anya dozing off.

Next, the family goes to an art museum to become accustomed to fine art, but Loid is taken aback by both Anya and Yor's behavior. The family continue onto a political campaign held by the Nationalist Party that aims for reconciliation with Westalis, but the negative backlash from the crowd overwhelms Anya, causing her to become dizzy. They then have a meal at an upper-class restaurant to rest up, as Loid despairs at their lack of table manners, forcing Loid to come up with a back-up plan to avoid relying on Yor and Anya. When Loid gets visibly upset at being unable to do so, Yor worries for him and suggests they get some fresh air.

After Yor brings the family to a rooftop park to admire the view of Berlint and the people, Yor explains that she frequents the park when to remind herself that her work helps people. As Loid observes a group of happy children, reminded of his motivation, he notices a man snatching an old lady's purse. The old woman calls for help but the bystanders simply stare passively, as Loid comments indifferently that the old woman should have been more cautious. However, Yor immediately jumps down in an impressive athletic display to chase after the thief, surprising Loid and causing him to also pursue the thief. Loid loses sight of the thief at a busy street in a crowd until Anya points out a cake shop, where the thief is walking by and Loid recognizes the disguised thief by his gait. Loid hands Anya to a returned Yor and pursues the thief, leaping from the second floor railing onto the thief and slamming his head into the pavement. Recalling his spy training calls for him to not draw attention to himself, he realizes his actions drew in a crowd but briefly explains the situation and runs off.

They return the purse to the grateful old lady, and although Loid gives credit to Yor, he shows appreciation towards the woman's gratitude. He thanks Yor for helping in his motivation to do his work, and after Anya asks if the two of them will kiss, they both deny it despite blushing furiously. Once they return home, Loid retries their mock interview with better results, at least until Anya remembers Loid jumping the thief as a response, which embarrasses Loid as Anya and Yor compliment him. Loid decides to be optimistic about the two after remembering being seen as a wonderful family by the old woman.

On the day of the interview, Loid prepares Yor and Anya as they make their way to Eden Academy. After Loid asks Anya if the crowd is affecting her, he immediately senses that they are being watched at the entrance. He concludes that their observers are from the faculty evaluating their every move with the selection process already underway. He alerts the family and tells them to do as they practiced, walking with elegance and saluting the statue of the academy's founder. As the family make their way to their designated assembly hall, they encounter a plump Eden Academy student stuck in a gutter crying out for help. Loid deduces it as another test. He decides to take it head on, motioning Anya to help him as another family try to offer their assistance to the Forgers. When the stuck student pretends to struggle in the gutter, his splashing reveals filthy water in the gutter, scaring the other family away. Loid then puts his foot in the gutter and pulls the stuck boy free through the air, splashing himself and Anya in filthy water in the process.

After the boy apologizes, the family reveal that they had prepared an extra change of clothes, and Loid makes an excuse that spares the boy's feelings. Suddenly, all the animals from the school farm had escaped, and rush through the crowd of applicants. Believing the scene to be another faculty test, Loid orders the family to handle the animals with grace, as he saves a boy from being attacked by a cow and returns him to his parents. He identifies one of the cows as the leader of stampede, but is hesitant to bring out his gun in public. Thankfully, Yor disables the cow by attacking its pressure points, much to Loid and Anya's surprise. Although Loid tells Anya to stay away from the fallen cow, the animal peacefully leaves and Loid picks Anya up after the rest of the herd follow.

Henry Henderson reveals himself to the family, thanking Loid for his help in the animal crisis and tells them to clean up their appearance and return to the assembly hall as they have shown their abilities to contend for a place at the school. Expectedly, Loid shows gratitude for the Housemaster's consideration but reassures him with yet another change of clothes, shocking him.

As the interviews begin, Loid admits to feeling nervous about the interview. The Forgers are called into the interview room and come face to face with the school interviewers. Housemaster Walter Evans asks Loid how he met Yor, and he responds by giving him an exaggerated story of how they first met at the tailor's shop. Having planted a listening device beforehand and eavesdropping on the previous interviews, Loid notes on Murdoch Swan's callousness in his questions and decides to avoid provoking his resentment. The interview continues as Loid is asked why he decided to apply to Eden Academy, with Loid responding with praises for the quality of the school's teaching staff. The next question focuses on Anya from the perspective of her parents, asking about her strengths and weaknesses. Loid responds with Anya's curiosity, wisdom, and intuition, and her weakness being her pickiness about food.

After Yor gives her response, she is asked what kinds of meals she cooks, to which Loid interjects by revealing that he does most of the cooking. Murdoch Swan embarrasses Yor on this and Loid defends her, pointing out her skills in housekeeping and her care for Anya. He almost starts an argument with Swan until Yor calms him down. He then tells himself not to get worked up about it as Yor isn't even his real wife. The questions move on to Anya as they ask her about herself. When asked what she wants to do at Eden Academy, Anya suddenly says she wants to "expose the secrets of the boss of the organization", shocking Loid at her unexpected answer. He immediately covers for Anya's by telling the interviewers that she is extremely ambitious and is curious about the lives and habits of those who achieved leadership positions.

Anya is then asked what Loid does for a living, and she tells them that he is a spy, which freezes him up a little. However, Anya quickly corrects herself by saying that Loid is a "spychiatrist". When Walter asks Anya what score she would give her parents, Loid and Yor are touched after she says that they are a perfect 100 points and wants to be with them forever. A spiteful Murdoch Swan asks Anya which mother she likes best, her first mother or Yor, which causes the girl to burst into tears. Yor tries to console Anya as Loid sits back, holding back as Swan continues to insult the family. After Swan mocks Yor, Loid snaps at the man and smashes the table between him and Swan. He then apologizes, using a mosquito he had crushed on the table as an excuse for his behavior. He then excuses the family out of the room, telling the interviewers that if belittling the feelings of children is part of Eden's educational philosophy, then he has chosen the wrong school.

The Forger family return home to reflect on the disastrous interview they just had. Loid thinks to himself that they will surely be rejected from the school and berates himself for being so emotional during his mission. Anya apologizes to Loid for doing bad in the interview. Loid says she doesn't need to apologize and that she probably didn't want to go to Eden anyways, but Anya tells him that she has to go there, as she wants to stay with her new family. As Yor brings them tea, Loid admits that their situation is not looking good. Yor assures him that they still have a chance, with her and Anya saying that Walter Evans and Henry Henderson are both good people and will put in a good word on their behalf. Loid reiterates to himself that spies rely only on themselves and always plan for the worst. Despite this, he decides to have some faith in his family and celebrate their hard work by making a toast to their future. As they do this, one of their family photos fall off the wall, signifying the worst has yet to come.

As Eden Academy announces their admissions, Loid and the family are in shock as Anya is nowhere to be found on the list. Loid and Yor are in disbelief over the rejection, and prepare to go home, before they are stopped by Henry Henderson. He pulls the family aside to show them that Anya has actually made it on the top of the waiting list. He explains that if a student declines their spot, Anya is guaranteed to be offered theirs. Loid wonders how this is possible after what he did at the interview, Henderson tells him that Loid saved Murdoch Swan's life from the dangerous beast that is the mosquito and that Henderson gave him a high score for that. Loid comments on the absurdity, but the man reassures him that his family are indeed fit for Eden Academy. Loid gives his thanks to Henderson as he reveals that he himself defended Eden's honor by knocking out Swan and that he will receive proper punishment for his actions. Loid thinks about which of the two men he would rather deal with but has many ways to destroy Swan if he intends to get in the way of his mission as he tells Henderson to let him know if he can do anything to help. The Housemaster appreciates the offer and tells the family to wait for the call that will get Anya enrolled.

Three days later, Loid picks up a call from Eden Academy. After hanging up, he quietly turns to Yor and Anya and blasts open a party popper, exclaiming that Anya got in. Franky shows up to their home soon after, having heard the news and suggesting that they celebrate. After enjoying the dinner and drinks, a drunken Franky blurts out that he stole the answers for the exams and Loid tells him that Yor and Anya can hear him. To his relief, Anya is occupied with her food while Yor is too drunk to listen. After Franky points out Loid's sobriety, Loid reveals that he has been trained to drink without getting intoxicated. Franky then urges Anya to ask Loid for a reward and she tells him that she wants to be saved in a castle, the same way Princess Honey was in the show Spy Wars. Loid refuses but Franky suggests renting Newston Castle in Münk for 50,000 dalc after Anya pretends to cry.

Loid submits to their demands, but Anya is not satisfied as the castle is empty and pretends to be sad as she says she won't be able to go to school now. Loid then gets all agents stationed in Ostania to report to the castle and dress up as part of an 'emergency operation'. Anya makes herself the princess and Loid the spy that will save her from Franky, who is the "League of Evil" boss. Franky gets into character as an embarrassed Loid stiffly asks for the princess to be returned, embarrassed about having to roleplay in front of his agency. Franky then introduces Yor as 'Yorticia' the world's deadliest witch, to defeat Loid. Yor drunkenly attacks Loid with a kick as he barely manages to dodge, leaving Loid with a bleeding cut on his cheek. Yor continues to attack Loid with rapid kicks but the heel of her left shoe snaps, sending her falling backward and she falls asleep. Loid smacks Franky away when he confronts him and approaches Anya, announcing that he is here to save her in an embarrassed manner. Anya runs out to hug Loid, expressing her gratitude and determination to work hard for school. As the agency cheers on, Loid questions the absurdity of the situation. Loid congratulates Anya as they look at a shooting star on the balcony.

Eden Beginnings Arc
A few days after Anya's celebration party, the Forgers go to the tailor shop to get Anya's measurements for her uniform. The tailor owner asks Loid if he is an alumni from Eden, to which he replies no, and gets a warning about discrimination from Eden alumni families, friction between the dorm and commuter students, and rumors of commuter students frequently getting kidnapped, which scares Anya. The family decide to eat at a restaurant, where Loid receives a coded cipher in his meal informing him to attend his next briefing at Safe House D in five days at 1300 hours. Loid acknowledges this while expressing his dislike towards the ridiculous method of communication.

On the day of the briefing Loid gets a call from the tailor telling him that Anya's uniform is ready, which he asks Yor to take care of. Loid heads to a photo booth, which is actually a secret elevator as it scans his face and brings him to the underground safe house. There his Handler is there to greet him and immediately chastises him for the expense reports on the rental of the castle and furniture from the Royal Palace. Twilight responds by giving more expense reports from Anya's required uniform and school supplies, citing them as essential to the mission, and Handler dismisses the topic out of exasperation. She then moves on to prep Twilight for Phase Two of Operation Strix: to develop Anya into an Imperial Scholar, a student group part of the school's honor program. Desmond's social circle is open only to Imperial Scholars and their parents. Handler tells Twilight that to become an Imperial Scholar, the student must earn merits called Stella Stars. She also warns him of Tonitrus Bolts, which are demerits awarded for things like poor grades and behavior. As Handler moves on with the briefing, Twilight becomes uneasy at Anya's capability to become an Imperial Scholar. Loid returns home and is confused to see Yor and Anya practicing punching, remaining uneasy.

The Forgers are present at Eden Academy's student orientation day. Loid recaps his plans for Phase Two of Operation Strix. He remembers Handler's plan about having Anya obtain enough Stella Stars to become an Imperial Scholar, but he concludes that he has abandoned that plan, as rising to the top of the school is a fool's errand according to him. At the moment, the school is calling each other students to join their respective classes. Loid reveals that he had made a change for the sake of the mission, and that was to put Anya in the class of Damian Desmond, the son of Donovan Desmond. Loid has been keeping an eye on him since he saw his name on the list of students taking the entrance exam. He also reveals that in case the original plan by Handler is too challenging, then they can move into Plan B, which Loid calls the "Friendship Scheme". If Damian and Anya get along well in class, Damian will invite her to play at his house which allows Loid to make contact with Donovan and fulfill the mission. As Anya is called to line up with her class, Loid believes that Anya's communication skills are quite advanced, having grown up in an orphanage. After seeing Becky Blackbell introducing herself to Anya, Loid recognizes her as the daughter of the CEO of a major military contractor and soon realizes that the other kids present belong to high-class families. Seeing Anya's class as a treasure trove of intel, he urges Anya to make lots of friends as Yor giggles at his intensity. Loid sees that Henderson is the teacher in charge of Cecil Hall, Anya's class, and thinks that it is odd that the housemaster was put in charge of first-year students, but he supposes that being demoed was the best he could hope for. As Loid passes the torch to Anya, he sees Anya get called out by Henderson and says he feels queasy while Yor reassures him. The couple then head to the Hall C Lounge for a meet and greet for the student's guardians.

At Hall C Lounge, Loid notices that Damian's parents are nowhere to be seen, as expected. He reminds himself that there is no need to rush. Now that he has made it into Eden he has all the time as he needs, and notes on having made new contacts. A faculty member walks in to announce that the student orientation is over, and they will now have a group photo in the courtyard. Loid notices that Anya is missing and is pulled aside by Henderson, who tells him that Anya hit Damian. Normally, she would have earned three Tonitrus Bolts but thanks to Henderson's discretion, reduced it to one. Loid is despondent over Anya already wrecking both Plan A and B, having earned a demerit on her first day and Damian likely hating Anya now. As the commemorative photo is taken with all the students' families, the Forgers are unable to hide their distressed faces.

The morning after, Loid greets Yor with breakfast as she sleepily enters the kitchen. Yor wonders if Anya is still asleep, and Loid catches sight of her peering around the corner, wondering if what happened yesterday was still bothering her. Loid tells Anya he's not mad at her and tells her to have her breakfast, and she obliges. At the table, Anya and Yor apologize for yesterday's incident. Loid tells them that what's done is done, telling Anya to be more careful about getting into fights and to cheer up as today is her first day of school. Loid notes to himself that it's always more productive to focus on future plans than on past mistakes. He also thinks if his daughter ends up hating Eden and not wanting to go, it would jeopardize Operation Strix. He decides that for the sake of the mission, he must make her school life to go as smoothly as possible. After Anya enters her school bus, Loid tells her to apologize to Damian. As the bus leaves, Loid thinks to himself that world peace could depend on her apology.

At school, Becky prevents Anya from apologizing to Damian. Loid, who followed Anya in and was watching her actions from the rooftop, curses and thinks to himself that Becky shouldn't interfere, starting to overthink whether if she's under orders from an enemy or not. Since friendship groups begin coalescing by the first day, Loid sees it imperative that Anya makes up with Damian by the end of the day. He continues to shadow Anya throughout her school day, disguised as a janitor. After overhearing Becky tell Anya to forget about Damian and that everything is okay, Loid silently interjects, and decides that he must find a way to get Anya to apologize. In science class, Loid gets her attention while he is up on the school's roof as he makes a lighter patch using an etched mirror with a message being reflected in the ground saying "Fortune-telling Yoiko: It is good to apologize today". In literature class, Loid alters Anya's textbook so that it reads about making up with friends instead of sticking to your own beliefs.

At lunchtime, Loid puts a paper on a student's back with the message "apologize!" for Anya to see. He then disguises himself as a new member of the cafeteria staff and writes down "sorry" on her omelette. After Becky continues to insist that Anya should not apologize, Loid rushes to the speaker system to summon Becky elsewhere, leaving Anya alone to apologize to Damian. Loid is relieved as he watches Anya make a tearful apology to the boy, but is soon shocked to see Damian completely reject her and falls to the floor as his Plan B has failed.

The next day, Loid tries to teach Anya about fractions, insisting that she needs to learn it now. After seeing how disastrously Plan B went, he can only now focus on Plan A, which is making Anya into an Imperial Scholar. He tells Anya that if she does not finish her work, she will not get to watch her spy cartoon tonight. As Anya struggles with the fractions, Loid wonders why she is unable to solve it. Anya then runs off to her room, yelling that she hates studying while Loid orders her to come back. Yor intervenes, telling him that he shouldn't force this on her. Loid contends that if she doesn't study, she'll never become an honors student. Yor asks him if becoming an honors student is what Anya wants and Loid thinks to himself that it is what his mission requires. Yor tells Loid that she wants their daughter to enjoy her school life, while studying a certain amount to keep her from flunking out. Loid agrees, realizing that Anya is still young, and that things like grades and honors don't even matter to her yet. Yor then backs down, saying that she shouldn't be telling him how to raise his daughter, but Loid expresses his gratitude for her words, telling her that it's sometimes hard for him to keep a level head when dealing with children. They decide to take break for some tea and make Anya some hot cocoa.

However, when they call for Anya to come out, she does not answer them. Yor says that this stubbornness reminds her of the times when she would fight with her little brother. Loid says that he must be very intelligent as he works at the Foreign Ministry of Affairs. The two talk about Yuri and how Yor's approval got him motivated to work as hard as he did. Yor then suggests that Loid should do the same for Anya, by praising her for her efforts, as it would mean a lot to her. Loid is doubtful, thinking to himself about how he isn't even her real father. He then realizes that over the course of the operation so far, he is far from the ideal father that he wanted to be for the mission. Yor interrupts his thoughts, telling him that he needs to believe in himself more and reminds him that Anya gave him "a perfect 100 points" in the interview. She tells him that he is already a wonderful father to Anya and Loid is touched to hear her say that. Yor grows flustered and apologizes for being so forward despite being an outsider, but Loid tells her that she's part of the family now and he'll always be counting on her for things he can't do. Yor then remembers that she's his wife and Loid laughs and says not to forget that when they're outside, then asking her if she could help with Anya's study sessions. She agrees, saying that they can do it together, slow and steady.

Loid keeps those last few words in mind, as if he wanted to rush through the mission he could easily assassinate Desmond, but it is no true solution. As a spy, he needs to know what his target's thoughts and wants are and to get close, earn his trust, and observe him at length. But before that he must be able to understand Anya first. Loid then decides to have a talk with Anya. At her door, he tells her that her spy cartoon is about to start. He apologizes for earlier and tells her that they can take another try at the fractions after she watches her show. When met with silence, he enters to find her fast asleep after studying on her own, mumbling to herself that she has to ace the test for her father. Loid smiles and carries Anya to her bed, a little confused as she then mutters in her sleep that her mother shouldn't kill her father. As he exits her room, Loid wonders how he'd feel if this was a real family.

Senses: Twilight is extremely aware of his surroundings, being able to find Anya easily and was able to tell when he is being watched by the faculty members of a prestigious academy.

Strength: Twilight has a good degree of strength being able to gracefully pull an obese child stuck in a gutter with just one arm over his head and land him on his feet.

Endurance: He is durable enough to take a car crash and still being fine enough to go to a party, albeit with bleeding and confusing his mission with Yor's agreement.

Disguise: Twilight is also known as a master of disguise, being able to seamlessly pass off as other people who have different body types and characteristics even down to their voices.

Yor Forger
Loid Forger's wife who he married as part of Operation Strix. The two of them agree to get married as it benefits both of them in the long run. Loid, being a great spy, tries to keep his emotions out of his work as to not get attached to her.

Anya Forger
Loid Forger's daughter whom he adopted to attend Eden Academy. Although he initially views her as a nuisance and replaceable, he soon becomes protective of her when reminded of his goal as a spy. He is often disappointed by her performance at school and wishes she would spend more time studying and less time watching cartoons.

Fiona Frost
Fiona Frost, aka Nightfall, is an agent from WISE and was Twilight's former trainee. She is madly in love with Twilight and believes that she should be the perfect role as Mrs. Forger in place of Yor. Twilight is unaware of her true intentions, and only sees her as a fellow agent.
