Dream Daddy Lives In My Soul

Imma just say it now, I had to rewrite this 3 times so I’m not gonna lie, these might’ve turned out a little shitty. Sorry dude.

On the other hand, I’ll still be making the reader a male. Mostly because in game you play as a DAD that dates other DADS. Also, y’know, I wanna write mlm stuff too.

I have not written Damien any hcs on this since I already made them, so I’ll be skipping him in these. If you want to find his hcs just scroll down my blog a bit and you’ll find them.

Craig Cahn:

Craig holds the ‘best friend’ card over everyone. He uses the fact that he’s known you longer than everyone else against them. Craig knows you trust him, which is why he can hide his yandere tendencies better than everyone else.

He invites you to outings with him(though it’s more like a date in his eyes), he can gain your attention and affection easier, all because you put your trust in him the most. Craig will eventually start to initiate more intimate gestures, starting off with small things like having an arm around your shoulders, keeping a hand on your waist, to randomly holding your hand while you’re walking with him.

Mat Sella:

Mat is probably one of the dads that’s not good at hiding his intentions. His yandere tendencies are a bit more obvious than the other dads. But thankfully he knows when to appear more laidback, and chill. He’ll find a way to calm down his yandere side by sticking beside you whenever he can. Anytime you’re at a barbecue with the other dads, Mat will stay beside you the whole time.

If you ever go on your first date with him, he’ll try to learn as much about you as he can. The majority of the date will be making sure you’re having fun and everything, but also him asking subtle things to try and learn your interests.

Brian Harding:

Brian is a very hard yandere to pin. On one hand, he doesn’t show his yandere traits much, but on the other hand, in private, he’s a huuuge protective. Wich is odd since protectives are very obvious.

Besides that, Brian is the type to show off to get your attention. He wouldn’t start one-upping you, but rather the other dads instead. He’ll make them look bad, like they aren’t as good as he is for you. He won’t say it outright, but he wants to show off all of his accomplishments so he can show you how much of a good husband and second dad to Amanda he’ll be. He’s already such a great dad! And Brian likes to show that off to you.

Robert Small:

Robert is the most obvious out of all the dads. His protective and possessive traits are rather loud with him. Robert uses his intimidation against others, knowing what to do and say to get people to back off from you. He proposes himself almost as a guard for you. He wants to keep you protected, whether you really want him to do it or not.

Robert is also a very hands on type of guy. Rather than words, he’ll use action to get on your good side, and convince you to be with him instead. Not by threatening or hurting you(gods no, none of the dads would want to harm you.) but simply by working his way into your pants.

Hugo Vega:

Hugo is more of a manipulator, like Joseph. I mean, what do you expect? Hugo’s a teacher. Either way, Hugo would use sweet words to get on your side. And plant ideas into your head. He’ll convince you that everyone around you isn’t trustworthy, and that they’ll hurt you if he isn’t with you. You can’t trust anyone but him, he’ll say. Your friends will slowly start leaving you, people will begin to avoid you. All because of Hugo.

Soon, it’ll come to the point of you losing your trust in your family. The only person you could turn to is Hugo. And he’ll be waiting for you with open arms and a smile.

Joseph Christiansen:

Joseph uses his position and power over you. Like Hugo, he’s also the manipulative type of yandere. He’s a pastor for Christs sake! How could you not trust him? Not only that, but he also knows that he’s a good father on the outside.

Back when I was working at Starbucks, I didn’t have much time to draw, so I made a few quick colored sketches to fill the void TvT 

So, I have a habit of joining fandoms not-even-fashionably late. And I did it again. I liked Dream Daddy when it first came out but I never got around to playing it until last month. Since I played it, it's completely snatched me up.

Goth Dad Damien stole my heart and I was genuinely surprised by the fact. I almost wrote Damien off as someone who I wouldn't be interested, but then I went around going through all the dad's routes. Before the second date even ended, Dames was already my favorite.

mary: and he was amazing in titanic.

amanda: a real renaissance man.

WARNING: ANIMAL CRUELTY

Apparently people have been adopting dogs and either killing them themselves or dropping them to a kill shelter (and one even said they were flying them to poor Asian areas to be eaten) under the Twitter hashtag #pitbulldropoff

This is completely cruel and evil and word needs to get around about these demons so everyone knows what these demons are planning to do to dogs once they get ahold of them.

If you know someone or if you yourself is planning to give away a pitty by craigslist soon, DONT and wait for awhile!!!! They act like they’re going to adopt them and act all nice then they get rid of them, don’t be fooled!!

I am a veterinary science major who has studied many breeds and their behaviors and other traits. You don’t think labs have killed kids? That goldens haven’t? Pitbull attacks are the ones that are showed to media the most, while other instances of breeds attacking is kept on the downlow because of the appearances and stigmas around the breed. The main reasons for pitbull attacks? Their owners. Either they were abused or were not kept inside. Many attacks by dogs are also energetic excited pooches wanting to play but not knowing their strength (it’s how my doberman has left me scratched up).

 I have been attacked by chow mixes, labs, collies, etc, but never a pitbull. I have a pit and she has only ever saved my life MULTIPLE times. You can’t justify the murder of an entire breed.

🐶Damien, ☕Mat: The day you came home from the hair dressers, they expected a new color but when you walked in with your natural hair color it took them a second to adjust. They had been so sued to seeing you with such bright and crazy colors seeing you with a natural tone was unnatural to them. However, after the initial adjusting period they would be completely supportive of the idea of either you keeping your natural color, or just wait until your hair was healthy enough again to re-color it. Either way, they would offer to sit with you during your next hair appointment to keep you company since they know how long the sessions can take. 

🎣Brian, 💒Joseph, 📚Hugo: You met them out for lunch after the appointment and they almost didn’t recognize you when you walked through the door. Their adjustment time would be longer than Damien’s and Mat’s due to the shock and how poorly they normally handle change being the awful creatures of habit they are. Once they adjusted however, they would shower you in compliments about how much they loved your natural hair color and that you should keep it, at least for awhile. 

🏋Craig: Craig had been with you the very first time you ever got your hair dyed, so hes quiet used to the sight. When you walked through the front door with your hair short and your natural hair color back he barely even blinked an eye about it, continuing on his normal routine as if nothing had ever changed about you. 

🔪Robert: 100% doesn’t notice. To him it doesn’t matter what you look like, you could’ve shaved your head bald and dyed your scalp straight up and he couldn’t care less. It isn’t until you ask for his opinion a couple hours later while you two are out getting pizza that between bites he mentions its a good look he guesses, but its up to you in the end to do whatever you wanted. 

Ten fucking years leter i post this

I needed this thank you. Hope you feel better and this helps.

“Just leave!” You cried out. “I’m not worth it! You deserve someone as good as you not trash like me!” You fell to your knees and sobbed. “I’m just a burden to you…please…leave me. Find someone you deserve…” You said quietly, looking up at him with pleading eyes.

Craig: He had tears in his eyes. He hated seeing you like this. In college, you had a moment like this. You weren’t exactly sober then but since then Craig knew how little you thought of yourself. It saddened him to see your sense of self has seemed to lessen since college. He went to speak but you continued. “Look at you. You’re a dad of three kids. You own a fucking business. You work out every day. I can’t even keep up with you jogging. I’m nothing compared to you. Stop wasting your time on me.” 

Craig sighed and sat on the floor next to you. He pulled you into a strong embrace before speaking. “Y/N. You’re amazing. I know you don’t see it but you are. Just because I own a business or work out doesn't mean you have less worth than me. You’re an amazing person. You’re beautiful inside and out. And…you mean the world to me…It…it hurts to see you like this. If only you could see yourself the way I do…” He said and kissed your cheek. You began crying into his shoulder, his shirt soaking up the water coming from your eyes. Craig held you and rubbed your back. “It’s okay…You’re okay. I’ve got you.”

Hugo: He looked at you shocked. A bit lost for words. He looked down at you and his heart ached at the sight of his broken down boyfriend on the floor. In his years of teaching, he’s dealt with breakdowns but something you said to him caught him off guard. “Leave me.” It repeated in his head and made his heartbreak worsen. Hugo slowly kneeled in front of you and gently cupped your cheek. He took a breath before speaking.

“Y/N. I don’t think you understand how much you mean to me. You helped me so much. You helped me understand that I can be myself. You mean the world to me… You…I’m not sure how to put this.” He bit his lip before continuing  “In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.“ He quotes. Your brain sparks with memories. It’s from Pride and Prejudice. It was only a simple quote but it meant a lot coming from Hugo. It meant something so deep to you that it hit somewhere in your core. You felt tears push out your eyes quicker as you look up at him. Hugo gently takes your hand and pulls you into an embrace. You curl up with him and let your tears flow. He holds you firmly and you feel safe in his arms. He held you like he was afraid. He was. He was afraid he’d lose you. 

Robert: “I’m breaking, Robert! I’m falling apart at the seams! You….you deserve someone who can actually help you… Not someone who can barely hold themselves up…” You sigh, wiping your tears away. Robert stood silent. He was shocked. He felt a pain in his heart. Tears threatened to leak out as you told him to leave you. He pushed them back as he tried to gather words. You took the silence as acceptance. You stood up and started to make your way to the door. There was suddenly a tight -almost painful- grip on your wrist. You looked and saw Robert looking down, still looking down. After a long silence, he quickly looks up at you with teary and sad yet harsh eyes.

“Look, Kid. You…Gah! I’m not good at this emotional shit but…Y/N, you give me a reason…To get better to move on from my past-” You try to interrupt him, wanting to tell he has Val but Robert stopped you. “Don’t try it. Let me get my words out… I know it’s rough. Feeling like your falling apart. It feels like the world is against you and you’re just a speck in the universe but…to me- you-you’re more than that. Fuck, I dunno… All I know is I would be in the same place I was before we talked right now if it wasn’t for you. I’ll be damned if I’m anywhere near perfect, but I’m 10 times better. That was with your help. I wouldn’t have talked to my own damn kid if it wasn’t for you.” He sighed. “What I’m trying to say is that I can’t leave you. Even if I wanted to. You make me a better person. These past few months. You’ve taken care of me. Helped me…It’s just my turn to get you back together.” He finishes and lets go of your hand. The room is silent. Robert is putting what happens next into your hands. You feel tears begin to pour again and you throw yourself onto Robert. He wraps his arms around you and he lets you sob into his shoulder until you slowly fall asleep in his arms.

Damien: “Oh, my love.” He said, holding his heart. Your words sending sadness through him. He gently takes your hand and pulls you up off the ground. A gentle hand wipes your tears away as a gentle smile appears on Damiens’ face. “Dear, I’m deeply sorry you hold all this inner hatred towards yourself. I wish you had told me before instead of bottling it all away. Let’s get you some tea to calm down and we can talk more. Is that alright, love?” You nod. He gently takes your hand and begins walking to the kitchen. 

Before long, you too are at out in the garden. The fresh air helps you breathe and the tea calms you down. Your head lies on Damiens’ shoulder. He begins to speak. “I don’t mean to be redundant but I am deeply sorry you carry around so much self-hate. I know what it’s like. Feeling like a burden to everyone you love. Feeling like the world is better without you… It’s not easy to deal with. You may not believe me but…when I am with you I feel enamored. My darling you are ravishing in so many ways I could give you a list…I’m a better person with you in my life. I hardly remember what being without you is like and I don’t want to remember. I want to relish the feeling of you here. If I no longer had you I would long for you more than I do already. I know I get wordy when trying to show emotion but I truly love you and want to help you love yourself again.” He finished and kissed your head. You took a deep breath and smiled gently. “I love you too, Damien. Thank you”

Mat: He stood shocked for a moment. His mind rushing as he went over your words. Frankly, he was confused. You got him to sing again, to do what he loves. How was that burdening? How in the world were you a burden? His heart ached when you told him to leave you. He couldn’t do that. You meant far too much to him to leave. He was ripped from his thoughts as he heard you gasp for air. He realized you were hyperventilating and he quickly got on his knees in front of you and cupped your cheek, gently moving your head so he was looking at you.

“Y/N, Breathe with me okay?” He said gently. You nodded best you could. He began to slowly breathe in and out. Looking at you as he did, making sure you were following his lead. “You’re doing great, just a few more alright?” He said. You nodded again. He continued. You felt your heart rate slow and your breathing even out. Mat smiled at you gently and helped you up. He held you close to him. “Good job, love,” he said and kissed your head before continuing “I…I know I might not show it well because I get embarrassed but…I really love you. You mean the world to me.” He said and hugged you tighter.

Brian: He took no time away from supporting you. He was quickly down on the ground and wrapping his arms around you. He was astonished that you felt so bad about yourself. He was just thinking ‘how?’ ‘how can someone so wonderful hate themselves so much?’ In Brians mind, you were his everything. One of the most amazing people he knew. You continued to cry out how much better he was and how he was wasting his time on you.

“Y/N…I..” He sighed before continuing, holding you tighter. “You’re amazing…I know you don’t see it but I don’t get why. I don’t know how I can convince you but…You’re my everything.” He said and pressed a kiss to your temple. You let out another loud cry as you clung to him. He rubbed your back and held you untill you fell asleep in his arms

Joseph: “Y/N I…” Your interupted him “No! You know i’m right!” You shouted. “Just look at you! Look at your life! You’re a damn preacher with 4 kids! You’re so sucessful. I’m a peice of shit compared to you!” Your voice broke near the end and you threw your hands over your face. Your whole body was shaking.

“Look at me.” He says quite firmly. You take a breath and shakily look up at him. “My accomplishments don’t make you worthless. We are all equal. As god says “when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.” “ He sighe and gently kissed you before speaking. “I love you. As an equal.” He said and gently smiled ay you. “You’r the best thing to happen to me, never forget that.”

I THINK THIS ACTUALLY TOOK LIKE HALF A YEAR I’M SORRY

Christie: -the way our Mom likes our Dad?

Robert:………

Hugo-comes home late after a teacher meeting at the school-immediately sees you and Earnest asleep on the couch, the end of the lion king 1 ½ playing-is smiling like a fool and gets a little teary eyes because he knows how much Earnest loves the lion king movies even if he doesn’t admit it-would wake both of you up so you two could go to bed in a comfortable bed instead of asleep on the couch

Craig-comes back on a sunny Saturday afternoon after a good jog

-knows you, the twins and River we’re going to binge the Aladdin movies-has to keep himself from laughing out of happiness when he comes home to you asleep on the couch with both of the twins head in your lap and river asleep on your chest -decides to go into the kitchen to make lunch for when you all wake up instead of waking you

Damien-comes downstairs in the middle of the night because he heard something playing-he knew you and Lucien were going to be watching movies but he went to bed early due to an equally early shift at the kennel the next morning -is surprised to see you both dead asleep with Lucien asleep on your shoulder -you guys fell asleep in at the exact middle of hocus pocus, or at least that’s when Damien found you two -covers you both with a blanket and leaves you two be not having the heart to wake you two

Joseph-trusted you to babysit all the munchkins while he had to go do some work at the church-comes back later in the night than he expected and walked in on such an amazing scene-Chris and Christie and asleep with their heads in your lap-Christian is asleep with his head on your stomach-Chris is asleep on your chest while you’re also completely out, full blown nap mode all while you were spread star fished on the floor in front on the T.V. -all while Tarzan is playing in the background -it was almost completely through the movie so there’s no telling when you all fell asleep but it must’ve been early in with how sound asleep you all are-one by one, he wakes up the children and puts them to bed before waking you up with the biggest smile

Brian-was 100% the one who first suggested for you and Daisy to spend some time watching movies together since Daisy normally doesn’t do that often -when you two decide to have a Disney marathon Brian decides today is a wonderful day to do all of the yard work he’s been neglecting -All. Of. It. -when he comes back in the first thing he hears is Alice in Wonderland playing loudly in the living room-the next thing he hears is you snoring-when he rounds the corner to investigate he is greeted with the sight of your arm around Daisy as she dozes peacefully in your side as you snore away-decides to cover you two with a blanket and pause the movie so you two can continue to watch it when you wake up

Mat -today was technically a day he wasn’t supposed to be at the coffee spoon but something went wrong with one of his orders so he had to go in and solve it-you told him not to worry about you and Carmensita, you had just the evil plan to keep you both entertained while he was away-well a one hour problem turned into a several hour problem and he didn’t manage to get home till later that night-he was a wreck, nervous about how well you and Carmensita had gotten along and how you two could hate each other and he didn’t know how to deal with that and twenty other worst-case-scenarios-give the man a hug honestly-but as soon as he opens the door and is about to start apologizing he hears the iconic Tangled music and his apologies die in his throat -because on the couch is you and Carmensita, dozing away while towards the last stretch of the movie-Carmensita is asleep again your shoulder and your head is resting on top of hers and you both are slightly smiling while you sleep-he can’t help but cry which wakes you up bc you hear him crying and he has to explain how these are tears of joy

Robert-it was already pretty rare when Val came to see him he was shocked when she had decided to visit him now -Mary wanted to go out to the bar and said she was dragging Damien along -so he just had to go-but couldn’t convince you to come along because you weren’t up to it, and neither was Val so he left you two to fend for yourselves for entertainment-what he was NOT expecting was to open the door at 1 am and hear the god damned jungle book of all things blaring from his television -what also shocked him slightly was that both you and Val were sound asleep on his couch in front of the TV-you both were on opposite sides of the couch, feet meeting in the middle as you used the arm rests as pillows, but there you both were. Sleeping away together. -after his initial shock he gently wakes Val up and takes her to his guest bedroom, then returns and wakes you up with a kiss-after a second or two you two part and he helps your half awakened dead weight stumble down the hall into his room where he puts you in bed where you immediately pass out again-to this day he will never admit that he shed a tear upon first seeing you and Val asleep on the couch, and to see how well you and Val were getting along
