I love that stede acknowledged he was a shit dad actually like they don't woobify the fact that he is just. Not a very good father. I am not being sarcastic when I say I love it.

#he is the heart of the show AND hes an absentee father he CONTAINS MULTITUDES #He's competent and compassionate and also kind of the worst sometimes #i feel like we dont give enough protagonists 'kick the dog' flaws #like the fandom is often like i can excuse murder but i draw the line at being annoying or hating puppies or whatever #and i get it 100% there are reasons writers do this #we all wanna murder someone sometimes but often we dont want to see ourselves in a character who is a bad parent #but i think it helps flesh him out!!! hes not one dimensional!!! i love him!!!#ofmd #our flag means death #ofmd s2 spoilers
