Ben Penderwick watched Technoblade like it was his job and tried to copy his PvP skills and had potato farms and called himself an anarchist prolly without even knowing what it meant and tried to sneak Techno quotes into his everyday life and cried bitterly when he died and then joined the Technodad subreddit when his parents agreed he was old enough to have a reddit account and he and Rafael would shout "TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES" to each other randomly no one can change my mind.

A very obscure connection, but a cool "parallel" nonetheless—close, sibling duos that give off the same energy:
Skye Penderwick 🤝 Rafal Mistral
Jane Penderwick 🤝 Rhian Mistral
⸻
I highly recommend both The Penderwicks and the SGE series. They're two of my favorite childhood book series. Who else has read both?
The Penderwicks at Point Mouette is the third book and my favorite of the series; it's basically Rise in terms of dynamics, except The Penderwicks is a much quieter book series than SGE is, and the characterizations are top-notch, vivid and distinctive. Also, the books remind me of Beverly Cleary's Ramona series and Little Women.
If anyone would like further explanation:
Skye has a temper but also has somewhat rational, cool-headed, Rafal energy in some way. Even if they're in totally different genres/contexts, their characters intersect at some point, by a lot, I think. There's the anger issues, the obsession with order, the protectiveness, the exasperation with idiocy, colder viewpoints than others', and a fascination with retribution and justice, etc.
Jane and Rhian are the siblings that get crushes easily. Jane is a little out of the loop, innocent, susceptible to being taken advantage of, daydreamy, imaginative, and a hopeless romantic, so she's not entirely like Rhian, but her character drives her in a similar direction as the one Rhian in Rise tends toward.

The annual "it's spring and it's nice outside, maybe I should reread The Penderwicks in Spring, a book that emotionally destroys me every time!!!"
