Lucifer: You are my daughter and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.
Charlie: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.
Lucifer: I said within reason, Charlie. How about I murder that guy?
Charlie: So murder is in reason but proper self care isn't?
Lucifer: Well, duh. What kind of question is that?

I like to think that Hiccup would be more of an affectionate father because he somewhat wished that Stoick was. Hence the birth of this sketch. I also love the more domestic side of Hiccup and Astrid, and can’t resist drawing cute family moments lol.
p.s.
Zephyr hates her father’s affection.

Do you remember Cass having any moments where she was like, the way I was treated as a child was not okay and I’m not happy about it? The only thing that comes to my mind is her desire for physical and emotional connections with others. It’s such an interesting juxtaposition between Steph who resents her father and what he did and Cass who still loves her father even after everything he did to her. Like, being isolated for so long seemed to greatly lessen any hard feelings Cass had for her upbringing, and I guess what I’m asking is did she eventually expand her worldview in a way that changed her feelings about her childhood?
This question is sooo interesting. I don't think she ever comes to a full understanding of how abusive her childhood was, but she definitely is aware of some of it:
Batgirl (2000) #50 / #33
Particularly in #33 (the above second panel), when she's asking Cain "who do you think you are?", she's realising the way she was treated was inhumane. She's asking him what gave him the right to do that to her. It's the second most confrontational she ever gets with him.
Steph is absolutely a great contrast to this, but her friendship also allows Cass to process some of her abuse. It's the same for her relationship with Tim:
Batgirl (2000) #28 / #59
In Steph and Cass' convo, Cass is relating to another abuse victim - she's recognising, on some level, that what her dad did to her was abuse. Steph also emphasises that what Cass experienced was worse. Tim, similarly, says that Cass' childhood was 'horrible'; in the next panel, Cass thinks she doesn't know what it's like to have a 'real' father like Tim's. I think having Steph and Tim as counterpoints helps her see David Cain as abusive.
Then there's Batgirl (2008) #6:
The most confrontational Cass has ever gotten with her dad. Cain's characterisation is iffy, but everything Cass says here builds on her development in Batgirl (2000). It's the ultimate moment where she realises everything he took away from her: reading, speaking, play, family, and above all, choices.
She tries to save him immediately after, so I don't think she ever stops loving him (particularly not in New 52, where he tries to save her life and dies). But she does acknowledge what he did to her, and why it was wrong. I just don't think she allows herself to understand the extent of the wrongdoing, because that absolves her of the responsibility of her murder, and she can't grant herself that mercy.

Father Gascoigne is the most character ever. Like. Think about it. He's a blindfolded clergyman with a set of weaponry befitting of a fantasy RPG warrior, a cowboy, a lumberjack, and a vampire hunter. He's like 7ft tall. He's stupidly hot. He's got the warmest, deepest purr in his voice with a decently thick Irish accent. He's living in a dystopian iteration of late Victorian England. He's a werewolf, but not really. The church he's employed by gave him fucked up blood transfusions that made him said werewolf. He's brought back to humanity and subsequently, through tragedy, tortured, via the tune of a music box that sounds remarkably similar to the lullaby of an eldritch child. He's also a father in the non-occupational sense. He might have killed his wife. He has like 5 whole speaking lines in-game. You can co-op with him in the early game to kill a giant creature on a bridge. The second you actually meet him, he tries to kill your ass.
