Sam: Uh…I mean Cade and I fight a lot but she's okay I guess. Mum's been drinking a lot since dad passed so all the responsibility kind of falls on me, even though I have school. I just really hope Cade will do better than I can.
Cade: Sam is trying her hardest but I can tell it's hard for her with mom being wasted all the time. I don't tell her mom hits me. We both miss dad a lot. At least they got to say goodbye.
Sarah: I've got two kids who hate themselves and my husband smoked himself to death. What do you want from me?
Lez: I have a family?
Lex: Terrible. Next question?
Yizar: Uhhh pass…
Ace: Mine are dead, sooo…
Zarus: Looks around Family? What's that?
XO (Chem XO): Ha ha, mine sold me to a weird scientist. So I killed them.
Derio: Let's not talk about this in front of kitty-
Czarius (aka kitty): Bitch excuse me-
Axel: I do not have a family. I was born in the void.
Raiki: My family is pretty large. Hmm…Well, if I told you about everybody, we'd be here all day! Lets just say…Well, I love them all. They're why I'm out here, doing what I do.
Shiori: They stink, they suck, I hate them. My sister is bossy, My Mom is stupid, always trying to teach me how to tend to the shrine and Dad- Well…He's fine. Dads alright.
Royka would say his family is strong. He would say he comes from a line of survivors and that he is no exception. He does everything for his father and brother, and even though he sees their flaws clearly - especially his father - he would never speak ill of them to a stranger.
Eris and Davlin would say their families are each other, happily.
Illy would say he doesn't have a family. It's just him and his dad and he hardly sees his dad. He's closer to his nurses than he is to his own blood.
Dax would say he doesn't know. His family lives across the continent and he hasn't seen them in a decade. Royka is his closest family now and he adores him more than anything.
Millie: Dead
Everybody else: confusion and sympathy. (The way she said it was kinda funny tho so she giggled)
W: "My found family is probably what keeps me alive, y'know?" A soft chuckle, definitely feeling that main character energy as he pushes a straggled strand of hair behind his ear. "If it weren't for them I don't know why I'd still be alive." Would make jokes about his past families, but wouldn't go into much detail to avoid traumadumping.
An: "They're annoying." He passionately loves and cares for his current family, and would be lost without them. Has a secret soft spot for them. Would not go into his past family at all.
L: "Family?" The memory loss hitting L like a bus hitting Gina Linetti /ref.
I: "I like my dad, I guess. Don't like my siblings." Would fight for her siblings any and every day. Trauma bonded with W (her dad). "He's not meant to be my dad but considering what he's done for me, I guess he can get that title."
D: "Family is weak." Emotional baggage, yikes..
T: "My dads are gay." Would have to be prompted to say more. "Gi's a cool sister I guess." Won't mention anything about his past parents before A and W adopted him.
Gi: "Didn't ask, bozo." Girl you were the one being asked!! "I hate T." In a sibling rivalry hate kinda thingy iykwim…
C: Flat out ignores you. Refuses to talk about family. Would even kill you if you pushed too far. Emo phase go mad.
A: "I don't have a family, however I'd love to adopt in the future!" Beaming and smiling, wayyyy to giddy.
Ge: Yawn. "Family talk is boring."
Z: "My daughter died." Would refuse to talk about her other kids.
Creator: What is your family like Halinya?
Hal: What's a family? Is it some sort of tool?
Creator: No it people who care about you and love you
Hal: What's love?
Creator: It's where someone will care about you unconditionally and put you before themselves even going so far as to sacrifice themselves for your love.
Hal: Their are people who are capable of that?!?!?!?!?!
Creator: Um, yes
Hal: Wish I knew what those things felt like.
Creator: Hal are you okay?
Hal: Anyway I have to go now or the Lord and lady with get mad
Creator: wait Hal!
Hal: what?
Creator: I'm sorry
Hal: For what?
Creator: everything
Hal: Its okay I'm used to this sort of thing. it's a shame I'm not human anymore, but if you sorry for my situation than come and kill me my body wont let me die.
Hello!
My characters are Giselle, Aster, Cassy and Hester. I ask them what their family is like and these are their responses
Giselle: * hisses through her teeth * yeah, my legal Mother is a total bitch. My legal Father is totally too in love with her to really consider things from my side. Ever since I was 18, I've been arguing with them and realised how much I don't connect with them. I'm adopted, and my Mother dumped this on me on my 18th birthday and then expected things to never change so I don't like to respond to her anymore. I have a better family now, my friends and my bf. And his mum! She's almost literally adopted me. I think she actually would, except for a) that would make me my boyfriend's adopted sister, ew and b) we don't think I can be adopted legally twice. So I'm just her daughter figure
Aster: Ooh, my mum is lovely! She's kind of the mum to all my friends too because she's so kind and loving. I'm so much taller than her now but that doesn't change much. I love hugging her and she always makes me food, plenty of it since I have a big appetite. She always makes enough for me to eat my fill and for everyone else. My father has passed away but I can still feel him in our house, keeping my mum safe.
Cass: Um…. I don't really speak to them much anymore. They didn't want me to do anything except what they wanted and they didn't understand how much I liked school and wanted me to focus entirely on them and I didn't want to do that anymore. So I left them but I'm much happier now with my bf and friends!
Hester: Yeah, my mum is cool. She's very hardworking and only wants me to be happy. I love her so much, dude.
My character does not know at all who their real family is, and they only have a sister who they like, and protect.
Kitty: "My family?" She is thinking for a moment "Well…. Can't really say. I don't remember anyone other than my brother, Thackery. He's pretty cool though."
Thackery (older brother): In a quiet, blank tone. "….we don't talk about our family…"
