god but why wouldnt they expect bad to run. why wouldnt he have been rhe first to leave, the first to beeline straight for that boat. he got his son, his baby, his number one priority- of course he would protect dapper above all else. of course he would leave
but they dont know. he went back for the other eggs. he wanted to trust the other parents to take care of them, to get them out, but there’s always one that’s forgotten in the chaos. always somewhere bad can help pick up the slack. he cpuldnt forgive himself if they lost a single egg- so he took dapper with him, just dapper, the way it has always been him and dapper, and went back for the other eggs, because he couldn’t trust the other parents to take care of them, because he thinks he is the only one who cares enough to protect them
And he’s wrong. he’s so wrong. but in a way, too, he was right. right about the straggler, and right about being the only one who could take care of dapper, right about being the only one who cared about all eggs- because they were alone. over and over, bad has been told that he’s not alone. that he wont be. that there are people there for him
but when the nuke went off, and dapper finally listened and ran ahead, he was alone
