#congrats you have three brands of dads in the Sins lives

[sins-of-the-sea]

3 for Giovanni, Rashid and Phoebus!

Send a number and ask my muse about their father.

3 - What was your father like in general?

"I loved my Papa! He taught me to be kind and always be mindful of other people's misery and misfortune. He taught me why money is important but also how to not focus on money so much when it came to providing their needs. He was so good to me when I was growing up, always taking the time out of work to play with me or teach me things and he was always patient and loving. If I ever have kids of my own, I'm going to be a papa to them like mine was to me!"

"I'm afraid mine was distant in comparison. Yes, he also taught me values and the trade routes and methods into the North African, Indian, and Chinese seas, and I have happy memories of him, but I was also the middle child of six brothers of the same mother, and I had to discover myself into manhood roughly on my own. He was not a bad father. We just weren't all that close."

"I'm afraid I never knew my father, at least my birth father. According to my mother, he passed during a pogrom in Lisbon before she found out she was pregnant at all. And from what I'm told, while she did like him, their marriage was arranged and it didn't last long when the pogrom took place.

"I only have vague memories of my stepfather in Avignon, though, but even his marriage with Mama lasted maybe a year before he ran off like a coward. As far as I know, I never had a father at all. Ever."
