Well considering Rebecca didn’t even tell Unit Bravo she had a child I don’t think her having a spouse that is mysteriously gone or dead or presumed dead would have pop up either. Especially if he was gone before she became their handler.
I know Sera has said that we’ll dive into dad in Book 2 so she might have just held off on all of that so she could focus on the MC and Rebecca’s relationship in Book 1.
I DON’T KNOW BUT DAMN IT WOULD BE CRAZY!!
I mean I really think he is dead. That’s just my gut feeling but… I mean… Dad’s killer could also be Book 5’s villain…
Do we actually know how much the MC knows about their dad? It’s a mystery for the audience but it’s possible that’s information the MC already knows. (Or knows some of at least, depending on the level of supernatural involvement.)
You are right, I had not thought about it in that way… (*〇□〇)……!
Rebecca is such a secret hoarder… she is easily capable of keeping such facts for her child’s safety… All for the safety of her child… Oh dear, Rebecca is such a die-hard when it comes to that part of her life (meaning the mc). What a woman, so foolishly-distantly brave.
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! MEWSLY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME>>???
I had not thought of it… It had not occurred to me…
But surely not? Why would the Unit know about it, when they have barely known about the mc’s existence for more than a few weeks? I doubt that Rebecca would share more than was necessary for the Unit to know about and for their Mission. Rebecca is a secret hoarder, after all… Right?
That’s true… I mean, there is a chance they knew she was married but didn’t know they had a child together? But I don’t think F would want to poke at a wound like that with Rebecca… that would be too mean.
I don’t know and not knowing has been gnawing at my sanity ever since reading it for the first time ( -̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥᷄◞ω◟-̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥᷅ )
The only things I have come up with since is:
the Agency’s history
the Agency’s resources (like where comes the blood from?! Where do they get the food for their Agents?!)
how have they stayed secret all this time
the Agency’a bureaucracy
All those kinds of things.
‘Hmmmmmmm’, indeed!?!?! ۹(ÒہÓ)۶
Edit+ :
Now that Rebecca is on the discussion table. I look really forward to more moments with her. She is being so full of secrets, I want to untangle it all and get to the bottom of this drama of a family.
I’m so disappointed that vampires don’t need glasses, because let’s be real, N would totally rock reading glasses and squint real hard to see things on the page adorable, amazing, i love them so much.
I knew there was a reason why M draws me in and I identify with them so much–when I was little I cried out of frustration a lot. As an adult, I much prefer anger to other emotions because it’s easier to deal with and work out, and if something does make me cry, I get pissed off about it and want to break shit.
It makes me wonder, though, if M could have feelings for the MC way before they realize it.
M: Shit, the detective is doing stupid shit again. I’m going to stop them. What an idiot.
F: Wait, you actually care?
M, scoffing: No, I just don’t feel like having to explain to Rebecca that we let her idiotic kid get themselves killed. rushes off to protect MC
N, shaking head: Perhaps we should explain to M that they care for the MC…
F, giggling: Not yet. Wait till they’re in too deep to run away.
As for the Rebecca and dad stuff… I’m torn. I don’t like Rebecca, but I am curious about her relationship with the dad. I think, in a way, I’d prefer if the MC never had a chance to meet the dad, or was ridiculously young when something happened to him, so the MC didn’t really know him growing up. Even better if the MC doesn’t know the truth about it and finds out in the series–so we can see how that affects the MC’s relationship with Rebecca (seriously, it can’t get worse for one of my MCs, so that’d be interesting).
This is so gonna happen in the books. We already get some glimpses of it on book 2 demo, like M thinking “time to cut off on smoking now that the Detective is around again”.
If you asked them they would probably be like “pf, if I don’t stop smoking as much N won’t stop pestering me ” , but we all know the truth M, all but you
