did Scoot Nikki help with the kids?(I remember your doodles where Dominic asked Frank for help or smth, but I mean what if it was Scooter instead of Frank) if not, what would have changed if they had raised Nikki's children together? I know they have kids in au, but I wonder how it could affect Michelle, Makayla and Cookie :Dc

Scooter did help Nicki out from time to time, in the form of giving him money to pay for things. Nicki never really held a job for long. (And you're right, I did draw Nicki asking his daddy for help a long while ago!)
If Scooter were to help Nicki raise his kids...Frank would have stepped in. Frank is defensive of his brother, he wouldn't want Scooter to take on such a burden. His son did adult things, he should act like one, be a man and take care of his own children. Frank also thinks its inappropriate for another man to be so involved, not that he'd ever think ill of his brother. They'd have end up under Frank's roof, realistically.
But! If they were to raise the kittens together under Scooter's roof, Scoot would have a hard time at first. It makes him uncomfortable because it makes some trauma rise back to the surface, but Scooter's so good at hiding how he feels. He makes himself stop smoking in the house cuz he doesn't wanna bother the baby. He drops the girls off at school when he's not on shift, etc. Nicki and Scoot still fall in love, although it's more restrained cuz there's kittens in their presence now. Makayla, Michelle, and Cookie would be affected pretty positively under their combined care. They get TWO dads!!
