Actually all my other svsss characters in mdzs universe thoughts pale in comparison to the truth: if Shen Yuan was in mdzs he would sit Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian down for a 4 hour long lecture about how much women struggle on a daily basis and how Jiang Yanli deserves a 2 month long spa break and weekly therapy sessions

you ever think about even though he was teen michael was still a kid? he probably blames himself so much for what happened because in his eyes he was an adult, it doesn't matter to him that he wasnt even out of school yet. he was older than evan and its his own fault for everything that happened.
even is worse is that if William really was a neglectful father and Mrs Afton was also neglectful or just absent/dead, then a lot of the responsibility for caring for his siblings would have fallen on Michael's shoulders. Not only would Michael feel guilty because "I'm older and I should have known better," but because he was Evan's older brother/parental figure and "it was my job to keep him safe."
And Evan and Liz of course know that a lot of the responsibility falls on Michael's shoulder; I reference that a lot in my A Nest Torn Empty verse, in which I have both Liz and Evan refer to Michael as an "adult" who should know what to do and how to keep them safe. Both of them come to think of Michael as an "adult" (which is why Evan saying "you're just a kid too" in the first chapter of Collection is a huge character development moment for him, but i digress).
So, yeah, I do think about Michael feeling guilty over the Bite of '83 because he thinks he should have been an adult in that situation like William/his siblings/the world expected him to be. In the end, though, Mikey WAS just a kid and (in my hc) a kid who was lashing out that he was expected to be an adult in the first place.

Nicholas sat quietly at the dining table, contemplating the fact that he couldn’t remember a single time this many people had been in the house, let alone seated at their kitchen table.
His “cousins” were fine, or at least fine enough. Though cousin wasn’t technically the right term. Technically, Abe, Nathan and the two younger boys were his nephews. But it was odd to think of them that way, when Nathan was a year older than him, let alone Abe. But “Aunt Elaine” was technically his half sister. Something she’d made no secret that she resented.
If Nicholas was honest, he kinda understood why. She was more than double his age, and coming second to a teenager must be pretty annoying. It helped, of course, that he didn’t want to be in first place at all.

warrior cats hyperfixation era me was so close to figuring out she’s trans and aroace. so close.
warrior cats hyperfixation era me: ‘‘yeah i usually rp as male cats :) idk i just prefer writing them and it’s easier for me to think as them than as female cats? idk i just prefer them. but irl i’m a girl xD’’
GIRL YOU ARE TRANS.
THAT’S WHY YOU PREFER PLAYING AS TOMS. BC IT REPRESENTS YOUR GENDER MORE ACCURATELY
warrior cats hyperfixation era me: ‘‘my fav clan rank? definitely healer! they don’t have to fight, they just collect herbs and treat the wounded cats. sometimes they also hunt. also they aren’t allowed a mate or kits which is a stupid rule but most of them don’t want that anyway. and yes i love rping healers who just have close friends no mate no kits no forbidden romance no nothing! but i’m omniromantic :)’’
GIRL NO. YOU ARE LITERALLY AROACE
warrior cats hyperfixation era me was so so fucking close. she was so fucking close and she still didn’t realise shit

listen I have to speak my truth I have to #bereal with all of you who write sibling relationships where the youngest was raised by the oldest as a younger sibling raised by my older sibling. I do not think of them as my "Mom" or my "Dad", I have not nor will I ever accidentally call them dad. I don't celebrate them on mothers or fathers day, I don't want to call them mom or dad because they're not. my mom or dad?
And everyone who grew up in a similar situation is going to have different feelings on it, hell I have complicated feelings on it. (They're not my parent but they're the closest thing I'll ever have to a parent but they are Definitely Not My Dad but also I am their kid ect and so forth). but it's like this weird thing I see where the only way people can grasp a concept like "raised by a family member" is "they must think of them as Parent™" when that has never rung true for me.
Especially because we aren't that far apart in age so this idea that this person who you also tell to kys and send penis memes too is my parent is weird like no they're my Sibling. Yes they set my bedtime and made me dinner and checked my hw but they're also the person who I rebelled against our parents with.
And I think a lot of it stems from this idea in fandom that "found family" means "nuclear family" so people can't really grasp non traditional familial relationships like "raised by older sibling." A huge part of why this rubs me the wrong way is this idea that the "dad/mom" is the Bigger more important relationship so that's got to be what they Want to call their sibling when. no. Like you don't need a Dad and a Mom and the 2.5 kids in your family dynamics sometimes you just need yourself and your weird older sibling who convinced you to eat a entire sheet of construction paper per day for an entire week because you need the fiber.

all the HS kids are only children for obvious reasons but Rose gives off energy like she has like 7 other siblings. "lonely but not alone" vibes throughout the whole fam.
