[pain-is-too-tired]

Think it's underrated so much just Bernard arc/story with his parents and so upset we didn't get a continuation of that.

I just like them having Bernard's feelings towards them be complicated. And says so much about his character how despite how his parents have treated them he still wants to fix their relationship. He wants things to get better, and he still loves them. At the same time he's able to not just give in to what they want of him. Its such a realistic depiction to how complicated relationships like that can be.

Also just seeing how it effects him and his relationships with others, he's lot more critical of Jack and Bruce as Tim's parental figures. He immediately asks if Bruce was gonna be pushing Tim to work in the company when talking about Tim being adopted by Bruce, and of course now recent him pretty much indirectly telling off Bruce about how often Tim gets badly hurt on the field.

The first one especially saw a lot since we know his parents had high expectations he could never reach...

Just... man..

Bernard’s parents are like what fanon thinks Tim’s parents are like.

Why'd your Dowd family tree have to be so good lol?

Now my brain can't stop making connections between characters.

(This is a joke but I've found like three Ives and it's wild and don't even get me started on the lanes).

Love your Dowd family tree/headcanons.

ohh okay uhmm reverse unpopular opinion on the dowd family?? (idk what to ask and that popped up first just yap to your hearts content)

I think i am so normal about comic book characters that appear only once or are mere mentions.

I am especially so normal about nina dowd. I am NOT in love with her. I do NOT think about her constantly.

So the thing is sometimes i make characters in sims so i have infinite drawing references yada yada... i got too attached to nina (also bern is there ignore him)

SHE IS MY PRINCESS

ALSO SHE HAS A CAT NAMED ENDOWED!!!!! ENDOWED LOOKS LIKE THE TIMBERN COVER CAT BECAUSE GUESS WHAT???

THE COVER CAT IS ENDOWED(THE CAT)’S BABY AND I NAMED HER NINI BECAUSE NINA

Accidental baby acquisition btw.

Did you know dowd kinda means someone who dresses badly? The more you know.
