#That moment when you write Thorn Michael to be a regular papa wolf...

[lettherebemonsters]

Michael wasn't able to be in his children's lives die to all three being stolen from under the Cult of Thorn's noses. Michael only knew Steven survived birth and was lead to believe his other children were stillborn.

Because of all that, of being made to believe his offspring were gone, he's beyond protective of his kids. To the point that he's a helicopter parent.

He's got humanity enough in him to show that he loves his children, but Michaela is his favorite. She's the one he chose to inherit Thorn because she's the strongest of the three, and the most like Michael.

Despite the favoritism, he doesn't express it. He shows his kids equal attention and favoritism.
