This  Doi's  jaw  went  slack  at  the  mention  of  their  father,  how  allegedly  their  otherself  must  have  said  something  that  seemed  detrimental.  Enough  for  Charlie  to  want  to  fight  him.  In  any  which-way  necessary.  They  tilted  their  head...  ❝  Dad?  ❞  Humming  a ��little  to  themselves.  Trying  to  think  about  what  Dad  might  have  done  wrong  (specifically  anyway),  they  flinch  when  they  remember  raw  puppet  limbs  and  parts.  How  Dad  always  used  to  eat  what  he  didn't  like  or  how  Dad  was  a  little  unsophisticated  without  his  batteries  charged.  -  which,  like  Doi,  was  most  of  the  time  -  Unless  they  could  find  batteries.  Roy  would  certainly  get  upset  with  them  sometimes  if  they  steered  the  course  but  it  felt  like  he  couldn't  be  blamed  for  everything.

❝Our  Dad...for  whatever  we  said.  He's  flawed  and  he's  done  wrong  but  I  think  whatever's  going  on  is  bigger  than  him.  For  all  his  bluster...Dad's  -  well  ...  wearing  a  chain  around  his  neck,  figuratively,❞    He's  not  so  sure  where  he  got  the  concept  of  chains  from,...it's  as  though  someone  had  once  told  him  that  everyone  had  chains.

⋆  ★    ❝  He  may  seem  dangerous,  but  I  -  we  love  him.  And  I  think  that  it  wasn't  that  he  was  incapable  of  getting  it  right  more  like  he  never  had  the  tools  to.❞    Their  hands  reach  for  their  own  more  corroded  batteries.  ❝  Just  like  me-  just  like  us.  Before  we  got  out  of  that  house.  We  never  had  access  to  much  of  anything;  the  world  outside,  these  batteries,  we  weren't  allowed  to  express  our  love  for  the  colour  green.  Do  you  see  what  I  mean?  We  were  all  trapped  in  there  together.  I  think  Dad  is  trapped  too.  I  want  to  free  him  somehow.  I  want  to  free  all  of  them.  I  know  Dad  has  more  love  than  he's  been  capable  of  showing  right  now.  ❞
