Hiruma considers the things he's gotten from his friends.
He's never been a sensualist or any kind of aesthete.

What horrors lurk in the mind of CLAMP?

All right, so in Card Captor Sakura, Sakura's mother dies at age twenty-five. At this point, Sakura is three and Touya is ten (1.5.11).
Let me say that again: Touya is ten when Nadeshiko is twenty-five.
Even if we go by the grades, Touya must be at least six years older than Sakura, being a second year in high school while she is a fourth year in elementary school. The youngest he could possibly be when Nadeshiko dies is nine, even if CLAMP mistyped in volume one.
Nadeshiko married at sixteen. By the numbers, Touya would have been born either the year she married or possibly the year before.
Now, I'm willing enough to entertain CLAMP's taste for cross-generational love, and the notion that Nadeshiko fell in love and married at sixteen. But for her to have had her first child at that age, possibly at fifteen? To possibly be having sex with her high school teacher and get pregnant and have a child at fifteen?
CLAMP, you nasty, skeevy people. I sincerely hope that was a stupid, thoughtless mistake and not a deliberate choice. The elementary school girl engaged to her teacher makes me twitch enough.
ETA: 2.1.22 Nadeshiko 27 when she dies. Definite continuity problems.
