80% creepy. 20% romantic. 100% you.

wow, im heartbroken??? but revitalized cause you added it to your reading list???? nice. so did you have a preference for being a sibling or just a cousin? i don’t have much of a preference. he would be motherly and baby her and then in like the next second they can be yelling and beating each other up.

well we're always told to be ourselves~!

i'm totally okay with siblings if you are!! if he's finishing up college, she'll be extra petty because that's even more pressure on her to START HER ADULT LIFE etc etc

[personal profile] maskreant 2018-09-12 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
yeah she’s doomed

of course i’m game!! wow. it can be that they’re slowly drifting apart because of college, too. Add in the wedge to their once close relationship. he’ll definitely ask her about her future and what she wants to do CAUSE YOURE GOING TO COLLEGE SOON RIGHT? why don’t you have a girlfriend....... then again who would date you anyway

also, how do you envision their parents?

[personal profile] 14680 2018-09-12 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
sobs

ahh that's perfect but also heartbreaking?? that would add to her whole fear of change, too. look what college did to you!! it's taken you away from me! etc etc. i demand cutesy sibling stuff to mitigate my pain hmph

i didn't have anything concrete! even their jobs are negotiable (though there could be a connection with xiaolang if their dad remains a software developer). i sort of imagined them as well-meaning, if busy. what about you?

college means studying? please don't be overdramatic about this. i promise all the cute sibling things... that is what i'm here for. continue to feed me.

that sounds good to me! and i can't pass up on having some kind of connection with puppy-lang. i hope this means they get to drag him into horrible situations that a child of his age shouldn't be in.

GOD HE LOOKS LIKE SUCH A PUNK i love him

feeds you all the cute and angsty family shit tbh

OF COURSE... it's only right... he's an only child (???) afaik, so it's up to them to ensure he gets the full older siblings experience~~~*~*~

[personal profile] offset 2018-09-12 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
WOW DONT YOU MEAN SWEETHEART.... he can’t be a punk he has glasses. a lie but. hey!!! he is a Responsible Older Brother.

exactly. Li-Na and Leon are good not-siblings. They need to be the chaos on the other side. I pity him now, tbh.

oh what kind of things should the have done as kids?? if you don’t think I’ll reference everywhere then you’re wrong.

someone here has to be the Responsible one, i suppose. ugh she loves him so much!! it's gross! he's definitely one of her confidants, like i imagine they were really close when they were younger and she never quite grew out of it. even when he was off EXPERIENCING HIS FREEDOM and whatnot, she would wander into his apartment and eat his food still

she came out to him first!! we're going for the real deep shit here!

and obviously on top of yang's embarrassing siscon stint, sun jing definitely had extreme attachment issues and probably baby duck imprinted on him from age 5-10 or something, esp as they had moved to a scary new place and everyone! was different!! so she spent some time following him everywhere, idolizing him, copying his style, etc

also they should have a cute and hokey tradition like watching the first trashy summer blockbuster together every year or late night excursions to some old private property where they hunt for treasure and probably end up with tetanus or smth 8D

THROWS PHONE ONTO FLOOR... NO. he loves her, too. but damn is it freeing to be away from the family sometimes. should they also have naggy/invasive relatives like most do. he needs more reason to move out and not visit as much. OF COURSE SHE'S INVITED to always crash at his place, but he would physically kick her if he sees her just mooching and stuff. not kick her out, obviously.

Oh No. Baby Sister... He would be so honored? Yet sad that she'll probably need to deal with all that entails. if she ever got bullied, he would have fought her bullies or get them in trouble when they were younger (until she was able to beat them up on her own). Secretly. okay. it would be obvious. she's probably the first person he told, too, but it took him a while to settle into it. A LOT OF TRIES HERE.

so you're telling me he helped create this mess. perfect. this distance is to help her grow as a person and It Isn't Working. i don't think it helped that he brought her to his first dates with dudes and girls (he figured out later he didn't like them as much as he thought he did) during high school so she can judge his tastes/picks. she is the ultimate judge whether he dates them or not. THUMBS UP? THUMBS DOWN?

i would love tradition that won't be broken. i can't see why they can't do both?? though i think trespassing onto private property will die out as they get older, especiall when their parents freakout over tetanus. movies will live on... and their round of SSB. whoever wins gets to pick the trashy movie.

oh my gosh, yes. they have all the family both here and back in china, obviously, and though i'm sure their parents try to mitigate the nosiness you can't really fight the #aznlyfe so yes. sun jing can get annoyed by it too but i imagine not to the extent that he's gotten. though with her impending graduation, she'll probably start to feel the pressure too. CAMPS OUT ON HIS COUCH FOR A WEEK.

she probably figured it out pretty early but never really publicized or made a thing of it until like. middle school years. when everyone started pairing up and going to dances and dates and whatnot. wails, big bro yanyan beating up her bullies though ;A; my heart clenches. she was super supportive of him though! ofc! promised to beat anyone else up for him if she needed to! now it's baby sis' turn!

yeah he had a personal hand in all this, so thanks a lot. I'M SO SICK THOUGH i can't believe he did that... she would've been so bratty and smug. cuddled his arm and scowled at his date like YOU MUST PLEASE ME FIRST.

true true, let's give their parents a Break. they can just sneak into parks or playgrounds at night or smth then. or he leaves his window open so she can sneak in and vice-versa. it's because of yang and ssb that sun jing learned how to swear and throw a left hook. so sayeth i.

ah... asian culture. the worst. this is why yang doesn't update social media where he's friends with his family. their relatives probably hassled their parents about finding a spouse for their children and the progressive/forward-thinking ones are... STILL TRYING TO DO THE SAME THING but with the right genders. they're obviously lawyers/doctors/CEOs/engineers/programmers with an age gap of 5-10 years.

(imagine them both sobbing in the corner like why does the person i like never like me back despite these prospects)

HAcks. Oh No. he only realized early high school, so she's a lot more aware than him. the time of his discovery to his outing was short, though. but thank you, baby sis. he's the type to cheer the person on when they're fighting. it's. not good. but hey!!! he's on your team! also, i'm going to make them the same height. it'll be awful and he'll be Sad.

IT'S SO STUPID BUT CUTE, ISN'T IT??? god he would literally not date someone if she doesn't like them. it probably stopped, but he also stopped dating people in serious pursuit. if you want to be my lover, you got to be friends with my sister, etc. luckily, he doesn't barge into her dates... he gives her space.

oh my god... they should have a playground they go to when they're sad or want to get away from whatever. he'll still go to it during college, especially when he's super wasted. he would probably scold her if she leaves windows and doors unlocked at home though. PLEAsE.

also

if you ever want a girlfriend, you should minimizing swearing

it isn't cute

(big brother swears pretty often)

mfkldsalj yeah they can commiserate. all their relatives always commenting on her weight and the length of her hair and why doesn't she ever wear dresses wth! she burrows her face in his chest like yanyaaaaan make them stop and he's just like 'move out' lfmalkdaj

(OKAY BUT THEM ALSO COMMISERATING ON THEIR POOR LOVE LIVES... less so now since his priorities have shifted ig but sun jing still texts him updates on hers, sorry about it)

somehow that makes all the sense, tbh. i love that. she'd still fight bullies for him, for whatever reason, it's okay she's scrappy! and can probably throw down better than him. lbh. and CHOKES oh god PLEASE DO that would be the best thing. she puts on his glasses sometimes and stuffs her hair under a hat and parades around as him why not

ahhhhh YES? A THOUSAND TIMES YES. i want her to find him there wasted one day and just combing his hair back for him while he pukes his guts out. xu solidarity. also it's fine if someone climbs into her window and it's not him she'll just beat the shit out of them DON'T WORRY.

pls what do u know about getting girls... 😒

yang: move out and pluck your eyebrows ya nasty

you can move out, but it still kind of follows you. it's a curse. he will support her... BE YOU, SUN JING. if that means wearing pants and becoming fat, then so be it.

(it's true. he doesn't think about seriously dating BUT SOMETIMES SHIT GETS LONELY YKNOW. he won't update her on his cause there isn't anything, but will hear her out and they can rate people like idiots as a pastime.)

Wow. WOW. you know what, that's fine. Sun Jing can get better at fighting than him because he picks his battles now. i mean, he did before, but he slamed YES to each one. done. they're the same height and he wishes he was like an inch taller. don't parade as him?? that moment when dudes hit on her cause he sometimes goes to gay bars. i guess she needs to learn her lesson.

ah... don't look at your brother like this. when he's super drunk he gets mopey and sad why doesn't anyone love him SUNJi ng why can't he find a boy? or maybe he gets drunk when he's depressed over something. lucky for us it isn't too often, but i will grant her the opportunity to watch him barf and pass out like a loser.

he has kissed more girls than you SASS HIM AGAIN

anyway, i'm... obviously really excited. thank you for granting my wish and i look forward to playing with you if you do app her!!

stop, you love these eyebrows!! but thanks big bro... they've been on each other's team since the very beginning and i'm crying over it. clenches fist and sheds a dramatic tear

(nooo that's so sad. i want to say she knows him enough that she can probably read when he's feeling down/lonely? 8C LET HER HUG YOU AND SET YOU UP ON DATES it'll be fun, just like old times, they're already pre-approved)

no see this is perfect, when dudes hit on her posing as him she'll hit on them back (terribly) and that's how she'll solve your loneliness problem! it's perfect! fool-proof!

thank you, you're already feeding me so well :pray:

you know that probably really gets her goat, knowing this LOL it's fine, senior year is the year to get freaky amirite

YES, HI, I'M EXCITED TOO. ;w; ty for this gift. i'll definitely be throwing her in the tdm when it pops up and coughalreadystartedmyappcough
