Family, huh... That's complicated.
Leo--- her twin brother--- acts like it's easy. He's always parroting some horrible proverb or whatever-ism at her about the importance of family, how they're there for you when it matters, how it doesn't matter whether you see eye to eye or agree or anything, or even if they're
good to you. Family is
family...
He could give it a rest. Vivi doesn't buy it. Their mother shipped them abroad when they were toddlers to hush up rumors because they were illegitimate and she had a career to worry about. She left them to grow up as strangers. Vivi isn't going to play nice and eat a quaint family dinner with her, no matter how much Leo wants it to happen.
But Leo... Leo's alright, she supposes. Her baby brother. Kind of naive despite everything, and she's not sure when he had grown up to be such a nag, but that was why she looked out for him. He was always too quiet when they were really young, and the help didn't like him because they didn't get him, and he took the bullying harder when they were in school.
He thinks he's got it all figured out now, but she's still looking out for him. Who decided to learn about all the Demon Heritage stuff that he was too good for so they could help him out when he wanted to start experimenting with it after all? She knows he went to law school because he had these big ideas about keeping
her out of trouble, but let's be real, she's always going to be his big sister.
So, okay, maybe she
does have his back even if
they don't see eye to eye, but... that's different. They grew up together, they'd always been there for each other. It had always been the two of them against the world, hadn't it?
She could do without all that blood ties stuff, but... twin solidarity, that's real. She thinks so, anyway.
Quest 2: Tell us what you are thankful for this year! This can be related to Evelon or not, that's entirely up to each user. Write at least 150 words.
Reward: 25 KSYou know, I'm REALLY thankful that this is my last semester at my uni. (Am I allowed to say that? I'm pretty sure that isn't the point of this exercise, but... man, the burnout is so real)
But on a more genuine note, I'm thankful for my friends. I should be thankful for my friends every year--- and I am, I really am--- but it feels especially relevant this year. I don't have a lot of friends... or, well, any friends at all now IRL, but a lot of the time I don't really feel the lack of it since I've got people to shoot the shit with online.
On top of that, they've been my support network since high school; I didn't (and still don't) have the resources to seek any other support even when I probably should have (though I will as soon as that becomes financially viable for me, it just isn't atm), and I've been given a lot of good advice over the years. They got me through some really hard times in my life, and several of them helped me broaden my horizons and my way of thinking, and helped foster my personal growth--- even if it was only through dashboard osmosis of their reblogs on tumblr. Some of these people stuck it out through my super trying teenage years, and even the ones that didn't... I still have a lot of things I'm working on, and I know I'm kind of a difficult person to be around for a few different reasons. For understanding my communicative and personality quirks and working with me on them, I really gotta give them a shout-out.
It's not that anything really happened to me this year. I just finally feel like I'm in a place where I can really appreciate what they've done for me.
And on that note, I'm thankful for personal growth. I've written about it once or twice in my journal too, but this is also the year where I really noticed how far I came... and maybe it's not substantial enough to warrant this level of excitement, but I'm proud of myself for it because I had to figure out a LOT of it myself. I was in a pretty bleak place five years ago, but these days I'm confident that I
can get better and keep working at things.
