Nathaniel is quite scary to look at, what with the scars and the robot leg and whatnot, so Duncan doesn't trust him- until one night, when MacCready is out running an errand, leaving Nate and Duncan behind. Duncan wakes up in the middle of the night after having a nightmare, and has to go to Nate to ask for help because Dad isn't there. That night, Nate stays up and talks him out of it, and from that point they're inseparable as father and son.
AW that is so cute! :D Scary-looking guys earning the trust of little kiddos is the best (and also I’ve seen it first-hand with my dad lmao) and cutest. ^U^ LOVE IT.
