Raising Cole
Cole and David met when Cole and his parents moved to the city they would reside in for the rest of Cole's upbringing. Entirely by coincidence, David had been a resident of the same city for a good number of years beforehand. David learned of the family's move through a third party, as he had been entirely estranged from his family since he was eighteen. He decided on a whim to pay a visit his brother, whom he had not seen in over three decades. Upon visiting, David learned to his disappointment that Greg had stayed largely unchanged from when they knew each other as boys, and was in fact now a disturbingly close mirror to how their own father had been. But during the same meeting he met Cole, who was eight at the time, and immediately grew fond of him, seeing much of himself within him. From then on, Cole would often visit David's house and after some time would end up living there part time on-and-off throughout his childhood. Although he fiercely fought and ultimately lost the battle for custody of him, David viewed Cole as a son, taking great concern with his health and well being, often paying Cole's parents for his and his siblings' basic necessities (when his parents would accept the money, which was seldom), as well as often letting him sleep and eat at his house. He put great time and effort into training Cole in his art skills, seeing great potential in him in this aspect.
