IM WRITIN A FIC , this is a scene from it

in a nutshell , dm & penfold find out how horribly stiletto is treated by the baron. since penfold has a soft spot for sidekicks considering hes one himself , he thinks abt how he'd feel if he were in stilettos place & convinces dm to help him. they snatch stiletto & bring him back with them and strt the slow process of teaching him Proper Behavior in response to being Loved , Respected, and Cared About

dm is pretty gruff but eventually he gives into his dad side & tells stiletto how proud he is of him for coming so far & getting past the bad things in his life ;;w;; & he n penfold are basically just stilettos papas
