Sidenote relating to the Background Nielan that I sprinkle in all my modern AUs:
I so enjoy thinking of modern!NMJ as an uncle.
I think he would just ADORE LWJ's babies, and aggressively campaign for the right to take them camping, have them spend the night, etc.

He WANTS to change diapers and give bottles! He WANTS to come to the kids' school plays! He is at the soccer field EVERY weekend, loudly cheering as the kids awkwardly try to maneuver the ball!
He cries when he finds out LWJ is expecting. He cries when he sees the first ultrasound photo. He cries the first time he holds the baby. And the tenth. And probably the twentieth.
Sometimes, he just tears up because the babies EXIST, and NMJ loves babies so mu-huh-huch. 😭

The kids aren't even genetically related to him, but he's ten times more emotional about their existence than LXC.
The first time the kids call him "uncle", LXC is warmly delighted.
The first time the kids call HIM "uncle", NMJ is on the floor, sobbing into the carpet.
