Maybe he didn't always have the right idea, and he could be callous or cruel too, but I don't think it's bad to be compared to him a bit. I know no one wants to be like their parents, really, but at least you only picked up some charming qualities. I don't say that just because I happen to be attached to that man, it's not about him. Wanting to act like a hero is just sweet.
Re: Umineko spoileries going forward, might as well do it now
Do you really think it has to be something big to be considered helping? Even if that was true and you never manage to be helpful, it's still thoughtful to care that much. Definitely still cute, too.
Even if it's not nearly as much as you would like though, you do help people. Even just acting like that - that's a big part of the reason you do it, right? It works, that joking around puts people at ease.

That really depends on the situation. Sometimes he was, if he wanted to be. He was probably better at it, too.

Then it's just... really foolish. Stupid, maybe.

Not that I mind being stupid or foolish, it's just what it is.
