I just want to say....Timadome. (Timmy x Dale) can be a funny ship with a lot of character development for Dale. Hear me out:
Dale remembers his savior and angel, the one who helped him out of Vicky's haunting lemon stand and helped in getting his father back (though it didn't seem like Timmy did anything, Dale had a strong hunch it was all thanks to Timmy he found his father)
Timmy is a lawyer (since he's amazing at finding loopholes and what not) and easily becomes a great business partner and asset for Dale's business.
Dale immediately recognizes his sweet angel and is immediately SMITTEN and tries to flirt with Timmy
Timmy is not interested at all, and ignores Dale because he doesn't want to bother with a rejection that could mess up the business from the get go
Timmy starts to hate Dale instead of love because he found out about how Dale neglects his son (and that hits too close to home, and Timmy tries to get closer to Dev to fill the void left by Dale)
And you can imagine how it goes, this being a one sided ship and a slow burn, along with trauma dumping, obsession (optional, but it's a personal favorite gener of mine), and just Dale getting humiliated and not caring because it's Timmy, and the subtle rejection, though hurtful, makes him even more determined
.
