Ronnie listens as Dad speaks. At first, she can barely believe that this her dad might ever have been this open and honest in his life. He was usually so...calculating and distant. Yes, he could be charming, funny and really nice, but it often seemed like one of the many coats he designed. He slipped it on and off to cover up the man he truly was.
Someone who was a lot more like Druig of Nightmares than he cared to admit.
Still, it's beyond nice to hear him say these things to her. The things she'd always wanted and needed to hear from him. She wished her dad was saying this, instead of a younger time/dimension-displaced version of him, but it was worth it to her to let that go.
And then he called her Little Goddess, like he always does and Ronnie puddles. She throws her arms around him in a hug that would crack ribs on anyone else.
"Thank you, Daddy." she says between tears of joy. "I needed to hear that."
