I've been half shipping them since chapter 1. This latest chapter just made it undeniable.
In fact, Tougou is practically another parent for Chouko which might be why he was sooo pissed at his son for her being hurt like that.
The thing is, I don't think the aide can marry the master so doesn't that mean that someone else is going to be the aide, right? Or she's going to have a team like she does now and marry Ojou who will be the leader...ish?
stop making me ship the father and his aide plas, they're both too cute!
(sorry sorry, fujoshi here lol)
but seriously though, i always love it when character's parents have back stories, it's refreshing
