#LET THIS JUST BE YEARS WORTH OF MISPLACED SELF RIGTHEOUSNESS

[acearohippo]

When the Truth Unveiled event drops, I am expecting a dramatic reveal that Li Xiao is Li Ling's older brother.

I want no less than a heartbreaking flashback, from Li Xiao's POV as he watches his baby bro grow more and more wild and takes on being an officer (police? Military? Somefin else??) and climbing the ranks in a twisted, pseudo-selfish way to protect Li Ling from continuing on a path being on the front lines.

Something along the lines of "if I can remove the threats or the severity of the threats altogether, Li Ling won't need to be in danger" or "You might've become an esper and protected our family, but as our youngest- you shouldn't have had too take on that responsibility"

You know, what I think dislyte is trying to do with all these "older sibling union members/younger sibling decree members" dynamics, except you know, not clearly as black/white. Also, Li Xiao is explictly NOT shadow decree.
