Daddy, can I be a Sky Knight?
Don't think it counts when I just play
I never see you anymore
It's such a bore
Hey, why'd you go away?
You used to be my best friend
And now you're not
I wish you could tell me why…
Daddy, can I be a Sky Knight?
It doesn't have to be a Sky Knight-
*over the radio* Good night, kid.
Okay, bye.
Daddy, can I be a Sky Knight?
Or play like when I was just four?
I think some contact is now overdue
I've started wondering if you had broke the law
(Are you in prison?)
I've kinda started training
I need some help
I keep tripping on my feet
Daddy, can I be a Sky Knight?
Dad…
Please, I know you're out there
Somewhere far beyond my sight
I may not ever let it show
But you should know
I think of you all night
I've found myself a family
I love them all
I wish that I could love you
Dad, I've made myself a Sky Knight…
So I fell in love with Frozen the first time I saw it and decided to combine it with Storm Hawks, my long-time favourite cartoon. This is Aerrow singing to Lightning Strike, who in my headcanon is his father (and I think it's the headcanon of well over half the fandom) at ages four, nine and fourteen. The 'family' he's referring to is his squadron. I imagine that he knew his dad when he was tiny, but lost contact with him after the big battle, for obvious reasons.
Thoughts?
