Ugh.

Just forget you ever saw anything.

[adorabrawler]

... Oh, why? Embarrassed? Hey, was that your sister?

[teenrebellion]

Yeah? So what?

[adorabrawler]

I thought so. You two look alike!

[teenrebellion]

We don't look that much alike.

What does it even matter, anyway? I just live with her.

[adorabrawler]

Becaaaause, she's... your sister? It's not weird to ask about her.

[teenrebellion]

Yeah, but like I said, I just live with her. We're not that close.

[adorabrawler]

Oh. You're not?

[teenrebellion]

No. We don't have to be just because we're siblings, you know. We don't even talk.

[adorabrawler]

Well... no. But I always thought people wanted to be close with their family.

[teenrebellion]

I don't need to be close to any of them.

[ that comes out much sharper than he meant. a little louder, too. oops. ]

[adorabrawler]

[ ... even when he was worried about her? ]

Right... Sorry.

[teenrebellion]

[ it's fine. mizuki doesn't press, so he just closes his eyes and takes a breath. ]

It's not a big deal. Just... not all families are that close. That's all.

[adorabrawler]

... Yeah, I know. Mine wasn't either.

[teenrebellion]

...Sorry. [ he does mean that. ] I know it sucks. It's just... how it is sometimes, I guess.

[adorabrawler]

[ She shakes her head. ]

Nah, it was just stupid of me to assume. I would know.
