He owes her a blankie!

Catelyn heard someone snigger behind her. She loves him, poor thing, she thought sadly. She'd play his squire just to touch him, and never care how great a fool they think her... (and some other things)

Yes this! Parent-child relationships are relationships. They depend on two people. And while it is absolutely one hundred percent the adult's responsibility to shape that relationship into a healthy one, it is inevitable that it will be different with each child. And relationships are always fucked up, but each one should be uniquely fucked up!

Im sure its been said before but I absolutely love love love how well The Dragon Prince did depicting how siblings can have the same parents but still grow up with very different versions of them.

To Claudia her dad was gentle, loving, and devoted. He taught her everything he knew, guiding his daughter lovingly through the lessons he had learned through life.

To Soren his dad was cold, angry, and dismissive. He ignored him every chance he got, making it known he was disappointed in his son for ‘failing’ to take after him.

To Claudia her mom is someone she doesn’t ever want to see again, someone who abandoned her.

To Soren his mom is someone he misses dearly, someone he wants to reconnect with after everything.

Then stepping away from their family

To Ezran his dad was affectionate, funny, and playful. Everyday he knew his dad loved him unconditionally, cause he tossed aside court manners to play with him.

To Callum his dad was a little awkward, stiff, but kind. He was never really sure how much of family he actually was, or if he could call Harrow his father at all.
