What does jeb think of gabe? Sorry if you have already answered that
(Fr takes me so long to answer asks because I force myself to draw for them. I'll just start writing to make it easier lmao.) Short answer: He loves him but is confused on why Gabe doesn't return it. Long answer: Jeb still loves Gabe. Gabriel is his son, his flesh and blood. He can't bring himself to hate one of the greatest gifts he's gotten in his life. He spent years frantically searching for Gabriel and Emilia, practically turning the city upside down just to find them. After the early years, Jeb resigned to searching for them in his spare time between purging the wicked and raiding AAHW bases. No matter how many times he told himself that they're most likely dead he still held a hope that burned in his chest every time it appeared. When he did encounter Gabriel for the first time in years (after being warned by Emilia that Gabe wants nothing to do with him), his heart broke when the man turned to him with a blank stare and said "You've got the wrong person. My father died years ago." Jeb can't believe his own son would reject him. All the days he spent wandering the streets checking every crack and crevice for a sign of them, just to find that his son is indifferent and his wife hates him. It bewilders him. He’s done nothing wrong and yet they shun him with even hearing what he has to say.
