Tess-Fabled's Links
Colour has no memory of meeting their father and their feelings about him are mixed.
René only physically met his child once, and that brief encounter scarred him for life, greatly contributing to his intense feelings of guilt as he felt responsible for the latters' birth defects.
Despite considering them an acquaintance, Moon was one of the few people Ferdinand was genuinely afraid of.
Moon thought of Ferdinand somewhat like a younger sibling, feeling the need to mentor him.
Maple viewed René as a younger brother and her closest friend - she was also pretty much responsible for raising him due to parental neglect.
René was the only man that ever met Yelena's standards (somehow) and she loved him dearly, finding his antics extremely amusing and endearing. As Catmorphs often are, she was a bit protective/possessive of him.
Yelena was the first and only woman René connected with on more than just a physical level, as he was comfortable enough to begin opening up to her - the love of his life. Her death devastated him and he never truly recovered, lapsing into alcoholism shortly after.
