HANG ON A SECOND!

“Bill” isn’t a color name, but it can be short for “William”. According to Before the Dawn, Velvet’s dad’s name is “Dr. William Scarletina” and he’s a high-ranking Atlesian Scientist who’s on a first-name basis with General Ironwood. Combine that with his less-than-ideal relationship with his daughter, and the fact that he’s carrying a “World’s Best Dad” mug that’s been vandalized to read “World’s Best Dud”.... Is Velvet’s dad officially THAT guy? You know what I mean, that one unpleasant person you know very personally in spite of your best efforts and wish you didn’t? Is that Velvet’s dad?

Is that the real reason she’s such a doormat? She doesn’t want to be like her embarassment of a father? And does he use his friendship with Ironwood and role in the invention of Hard-Light Dust to avoid getting in trouble?
