Well, we're stuck sharing everything else, I guess, so why not that too?

[ they even had a crush on the same girl... terrible ]

Was your brother older or younger?

So the other ones are getting off light.

[ this is a joke but it's a mean joke. ]

... Older.

Right?? [ it's fine he is so fucking mean to his brothers. ] Ugh, why am I the one getting shoved into these things over and over? It's not like they've got any more going on than I do.

[ throw osomatsu in here instead, he deserves it the most. (he has already been in multiple games in different mg circles but THAT DOESN'T COUNT)

sigh!! ]

Ah, you probably get it then, huh? Being the youngest isn't anywhere near as much of an advantage as they act like it is.

Clearly.

[ teasing... also help me WE'LL GET THE WHOLE ROSTER EVENTUALLY. OSOMATSU BINGO. ]

It's not. Other people just compare you all the time and you get a bunch of hand-me-downs instead of anything for yourself, and you always have to be player two in video games. [ does any of this matter. ]

[ you will absolutely not get the whole roster eventually because who besides me would curse themselves to this

also the hand-me-downs are definitely not an issue for him since the others are only older by a matter of minutes, but. ]

Yeah, you're always last for everything! And the comparisons are the worst.

[ we'll get them all from you. just like. one at a time... anyway she nods so enthusiastically at the comparisons comment.

but then pauses. ]

... But... It's also like—

[ —well it doesn't matter because whatever she was going to say gets cut off by the wind and a memory. from 3:01:49 to 3:05:11. ]

[ ah. in his case it's mostly because his brothers have shit reputations and it puts him at a disadvantage having to prove that he's better than them. ]

...Was that him?

[ for alex it's the opposite. her brother was perfect, and no one expected much from her. but that was kind of fine really, because she also thought he was perfect. ]

Yeah.

[ yeah, that was definitely the impression he got just now... ]

Ah... sorry.

It was a long time ago.

[ ... awkwardly tries to just go back like that didn't happen... ]

But. Uh, yeah, it's like. Everyone thinks you get babied when you're the youngest. But that's not necessarily the case.

[ he is fine with that. ]

Yeah! Like, god, I have to play the nagging mother role with the rest of them half the time, and then they have to nerve to tell me I have it the easiest??

Right? Like, how do I have it easiest? I feel like I took on more chores if anything.

[ she didn't. ]

[ he also really only does do this half of the time and the other half he DOES expect people to do everything for him just because he's cute. ]

Sooo annoying.

[ she's not spoiled by her family... but she sure got used to be spoiled by other people and is now stupid about it. ]

And everyone says I got the "weird genes." What does that even mean.

What does that mean?

[ unfortunately he and his brothers all have the exact same genes...... ]

I don't know. He said I have weird ankles. I have normal ankles!

Weird ankles?

[ ...glances down at her ankles i guess??? what makes an ankle weird?? ]

Okay, well, they're not weird.

I know that already!

I'm just verifying as a neutral third party!

Well thank you...

You're welcome...

[ ... ]

When you're not play-fighting. [ chalking up any of his complaints to just 'play-fighting' is kind of rude but okay. ] Do you get along with your brothers?

I mean, we do a lot of stuff together, and it's usually fun, so yeah? But they're also kind of toxic. Like, any time they see me succeeding at doing something on my own without them, they get all vindictive about it and try to sabotage me.
