im getting sleepy but royal twins wip including sibling banter
“You’re not even listening, are you?”
“Hm?”Legend blinked, glancing up at Fable and frowning. “Oh—sorry..”
“Are you okay?”She matched his frown, reaching a hand over and placing it atop his. “You look exhausted.”
“Didn’t get much sleep, but what’s new?”Legend shot her a lopsided grin, sighing when Fable looked concerned. “Don’t look at me like that.”
“Sheik…”She sighed, breaking out his real name to emphasise her worry, “You’re my brother, and I care about you so much. If—If I can help, you have to tell me.”
Legend sighed, gently running his thumb along the back of her hand. “It’s nothin, Zel. I’m okay,”Then added a quick, “If something’s wrong, you’ll be the first to know, alright?”
“I’d better be.”She pouted a bit. “What kind of big sister would I be if I didn’t know how you were?”
“Oh—come off it, Zel. You’re older by, what, a minute and a half? It barely even counts!”
“It totally counts.”
“Nuh-uh.”
“Yuh-huh.”
A long silence followed, the twins staring at each other defiantly, waiting for the other to break.
Like always, it was Fable who broke first, eyes darting away to the side as she giggled.
“I win,”Legend smirked softly.
im like the guy in the infomercials they depict in black and white doing everything inefficiently and having a thousand tupperware containers fall on me when i open the cupboard
you ever see a character and go "wow, this character is so nuanced and morally gray! their actions and morals don't always align! they're complicated and make bad decisions and behave painfully realistically! I hate them and love them at the same time and that's on purpose! they're so cool! .... fan content is going to misinterpret them completely, isn't it."
since valentines day is tomorrow (or already here for some people), i just wanted to give a shoutout to my fellow loveless aros. shoutout to those who are still alienated when people do that whole "valentines day is for all kinds of love you can still celebrate it yippee!!!" thing. i'm holding all your hands (edit: and if you're touch repulsed, i'm simply nodding at you in understanding and psychically beaming good vibes towards you)
