Ah—I am sorry. I didn't realize that was the situation.

Ah, do not make such a face.

[He'll ruffle Talon's hair if he may.]

If I see him again it will be a joy, if not, than I have made my peace. I merely wished to sympathize with what it is to watch one you love love themselves less.

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

[ He'll allow it, if only because of the awkward atmosphere now ]

Still... Perhaps he'll arrive one day. Or you'll gain a wish for him.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

You are a kind young man. Yes, perhaps I will see him again. In the meantime we must all focus on the living. Your brother sounds like a handful for you, and I hope that at least he is not self-destructive, even if he neglects himself?

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

[ The long beat of hesitation probably answers the question before Talon does ]

I think he tries not to be.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

[It sure does!]

Ah. You must deal with a lot.

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

We both do.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

Let me guess. He is much better at caring about you than himself?

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

I'm the youngest person here. All of my relationships are like that.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

I would make a pithy remark but in fact that is part of being the youngest. Others will look out for you over themselves, generally. Human nature or animal instinct or whatever you want to call it.

Perhaps not all to your brother's extremes though?

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

No...it's rare that someone is worse than him about it.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

How... Fortunate?

Re: START

[iamverybadass]

Close enough.

Re: START

[temperedinpride]

[He grins.]

Well at least the silver lining is you already know how to deal with the worst.
