And it's sad bc I feel like even the characters in-game don't always understand wyll, I'm sure it's been touched on before but Florrick saying "I'm sure you don't hold much love for your father" (words to that effect) is so devastating to hear. How could you say that, when wyll's love for his father was a driving force behind his pact in the first place. When he always has a kind word and an aphorism that his father imparted upon him. When his father's approval and love means the world to him, that demeaning his relationship with his father gains his disapproval... she would have no way of knowing any of this. But we know, and the companions know, and it's hard to have to hear such a thing from someone who hasn't seen him in nearly a decade, yet is still clinging to the memory of who he was and who she thinks that boy would have grown up to become.

Part of his story is not being able to tell people how he feels and who he really is and it's sad to see that even something so integral to him- his love for his father and their relationship to the city- is warped by his contract and people's own inability to sympathize w him

#and idrc what others say.... ulder does love wyll. and cares for him deeply.#and wyll knows that. it's probably an added layer of hurt to his banishment from baldur's gate-#to know that your parent loves you and still would make such a decision.#and that doesn't mean ulder didn't make a mistake. he did. he admits this and asks for forgiveness #even if he knows wyll doesn't have to give such a thing #it's the acknowledgement that loving someone doesn't mean you can't hurt them #i'd like to think they become closer again after the events of fhe game.#i want to believe that ulder makes an effort to make up for lost time-#and that it will be difficult. but wyll wants to be his son again.#that florrick can see that wyll's love for his father never went away despite the hardships he faced #and how he had to face them young and alone #but his love did perservre.#ok im just rambling now its too late but i just want to post abt wyll all the time sorrayyyyyy (<- saying sorry in a british way)
