I just can't believe the FSM being a bad person, or parent, like so many seem to think.
Mystaké spoke highly of him, and the only reason Firstbourne let him ride her was because she sensed the goodness in his heart.
And in the scenes we've seen of him, he's been patient and caring with his sons. I'm still shook that he didn't get angry at them fighting on the boat. He just chuckled and gave them advice.
And apparently they had campfires, and Wu and Garmadon did okay on their journey as teens, so they probably went camping too??
I will fight for trying-his-best-good-dad FSM.
Bro had no parents, people coming after him since he was a kid... he probably had no idea what a regular childhood was like. But I strongly do believe that he tried his best with Wu and Garmadon.

They ate in silence, a quiet peace settling over him, observing the plate and the cups of wine between them where they sat, half-dressed in the darkened palace kitchens, although while it was easily one of the best meals he’d ever had, it was hard to focus on anything but her, the way the candlelight danced in her eyes, and the perfect line of her collarbones, glimpsed through the dipping collar of her dressing gown where it had slipped open.
His throat felt suddenly parched, and putting his fork down, he was about to reach for his cup when Makino touched his wrist, stopping him.
Shanks didn’t move, his gaze fastened on the small hand, pale against the darker, rougher skin of his, before lifting, finding her dark eyes anchored in his, her soft mouth darkened by the wine.
A heartbeat passed; Shanks felt the pulse through his whole body, and before he knew what he was doing, he'd moved.

so, this happened. still feels surreal aklsjdfh
made this little vlog of the day, though it does not manage to convey just how amazing it really was...i struggle myself to put it in words
hearing their laughs and seeing their smiles irl is something i will cherish forever. eddy's soft "keep it up" when i told them i started playing piano again because of them will keep me practicing from here on out.
still can't believe brett picked me in the q&a and that i got to somewhat torture eddy with the 5mil concerto question much to brett's delight lmao.
the concert was utterly amazing, unforgettable, so much fun, breathtaking and emotional, and yes i cried.
i want to forever live in the 6 minutes that is twoset playing navarra.
and london gang was also a huge part of how great the day was!! such wonderful people, had delightful conversations about twoset, classical music, tonic, practice, art, fandom and so much more! they all kept me sane through the surreality of it all. thank you!!
(oh and btw the day before i also went to hilary's concert and i met her??? so fucking surreal, i'm telling you!!!)
