A/n - platonic pairing


He would be the absolute best father ever.

Taehoon is the difficult child, but you're his angel. In his mind, you can do no wrong.

He treats you very gently, like you're made of fine porcelain, almost as if you'd break with the slightest nudge. Naturally, it drives you crazy sometimes. Even though you're well into your teens, he still treats you like a toddler that's incapable of walking two steps.

You would never get too mad with him though, because you know he does it with the purest intentions.

Something you do feel bad about is how hard he is on Taehoon when it comes to you. Of course he treats him fairly, but that doesn't mean that he spares him a verbal lashing if you get into any sort of trouble while Taehoon is supposed to be keeping an eye on you.

Your father is extremely overprotective, almost suffocatingly so. You never complain about it though, mainly because you don't realise it isn't normal for one's father to be as obsessed with their child's safety as he is with you.

****

Taehoon doesn't mind the blatant favoritism, he completely understands it seeing as you're his favourite person too, and he could never fault your father for putting you first, before anyone else.

You're for sure a daddy's girl, and your father treats you as such.

He buys you whatever your heart desires, whether that's clothing, food and sweets, books or video games, make up, figurines. You're sure to never ask for too much, not wanting to take advantage of your father.

But no matter how much you may decline certain things, you always end up getting it anyway.

You've been discreetly eyeing a new dress? It's on your bed waiting for you a few hours later.

Oh, there's a limited edition Sailor Moon figurine you've been saving up for? There's no need to pay for it yourself, your father got it for you as an early birthday gift (eight months early).

You're running low on paint supplies for a new project? You'll find high quality materials waiting for you when you get home.

However, Hansu draws the line at you going out whenever you'd like. He's willing to give in to a lot of things that you ask for, but going out - specifically alone - that's out of the question.

A compromise had been made in your early teens that Taehoon would have to accompany you on any outings you went on. That had worked well for a while, up until you'd hit about sixteen and had an itching desire for more freedom and independence.

It had resulted in quite a few arguments - admittedly one-sided as your father had his mind made up the moment you'd brought it up.

Regardless of your freedom or lack thereof, you enjoyed spending time with your family.

****

Of course, your father had introduced you to taekwondo at a very young age, almost as soon as you could walk.

There were various photo albums filled with pictures of you - you in a small taekwondo uniform as a toddler, your father proudly crouching beside you as you grinned at the camera, you and Taehoon standing next to one another, each holding up a gleaming gold medal with a large wall of trophies behind you, Taehoon watching you practice your form, strictly instructing you to kick higher.

It was a genuine passion of yours, one of the only hobbies you regularly practiced. A large part of that might have been because of how much time you'd get to spend with both your brother and your father.

Honestly, competitions were somewhat of a rarity until you'd hit double digits - your father's paranoia being the deciding factor in your lack of participation.

Eventually he'd caved and allowed you to enter a competition, with very strict rules about your safety and how far you'd be allowed to push yourself.

That had been a critical moment for you. You had won all the matches you'd had that day, and you'd gone home happier than you'd ever been in your ten short years of living. Both Taehoon and you father had been overjoyed by your victory.

It had been decided then that you'd be allowed to participate in any competition you'd want, only because your father would rather die than take that sort of happiness away from you.

An added extra was that you'd decided to spend even more time training, which meant that you'd spend more time at home with your dear old dad.

As if you didn't already spend most of your time there anyway.

Your routine was limited to school, home, and the do jang - not that you minded.

It's not as if you were even missing out on anything incredible - you didn't have any close friends or after school activities, so you were content to go to school to learn and come right back home.

Your father's close friend -Mr Kim as you knew him - adored you too and always took some time out of his visits to teach you a few of his more docile defense moves.

Hansu wasn't particularly happy about it - not because he thought it was unsafe, quite the opposite - he disliked it because he worried that you'd take such a liking to it that you would decide to abandon taekwondo all together in favour of choosing a more militant self-defense style of fighting.

Of course you'd never abandon taekwondo, not when you enjoyed it so much.

All of your other hobbies and interests tended to take a bit of a backseat when it came to taekwondo.

****

Despite your father's clear over protective tenancies and borderline controlling behaviour, you adored him. You might even go as far as to call him your role model.

You don't often question his rules, content to believe that your father had your best interest at heart - which he did.

Make no mistake, you didn't display blind devotion, you just admired your father for his work ethic and perseverance, but mostly you appreciated that he loved both you and your brother, and tried his best to raise you well and protect you.

He's actually not that crazy about keeping you locked up, you just happen to prefer staying at home, and you don't have many friends. He does tend to urge you to take Taehoon with you, but only because he doesn't want you to wonder around alone.

Overall he's a great father who isn't too insane, and all of his somewhat strange behaviours can be written off as typical parental concern.

Would he be crazy when you show interest in someone?? Maybe.

But he loves you and wants what's best for you. Most of all, he wants to see you happy, and if it happens to go against one of his rules, he'll find a way to compromise to keep everyone happy.

10/10 - very wholesome father :))
