Exactly one (1) of my OCs has siblings: Zach!

You can read a bit more about his family here, but the gist of it is that he has two twin sisters and an older brother. Cassie and Callie are younger than him, while David is older.

Zach makes it a point to get along with most people, but he and David do clash a bit more than he does with the girls.

Happy STS to you too! Thank you so much for helping me participate in the day :) I’ll be sure to shoot you over an ask as soon as I’m done with this one

It’s funny that you asked this, because it’s been something I’m struggling through in my own worldbuilding as of now. Despite my love for languages, I’m better at learning them than developing them. Thus, I haven’t spent much time deciding on what everyone speaks (beyond a “common” tongue), especially with the scope of my stories primarily taking place only over one interconnected continent.

That being said, there is a tongue or two worth talking about beyond what everyone knows. The Genesai’i engrave runes on their flesh called “Earthfont” that allows them to manifest supernatural power when the bearer touches the mark with blood and utters the word inscribed there. The Earthfont alphabet forms what came to be known as the Runesong - a collection of lyrics telling a story lost to time. Kasumi, as a Shadow of the Genesai’i Imperium, has inscribed many runes throughout her body and memorized their meanings. However, she would not know how to form a legible sentence with them.

I struggle a lot to write siblings, which is why nobody has siblings. I freely admit that this is because I have five siblings and 1) I cannot keep up with these weirdos enough for them to affect my everyday life, and 2) Oh my God imagine being an only child. The blissful joy and silence.

That said, here is a compilation of yves. canon sibling relationships.

Forest Castles

Eliza has two siblings but they are rarely if ever mentioned. She tries to stay out of their line of fire.

Avner has three siblings whom he was basically in charge of taking care of full-time. He thinks about them (and his parents) often.

Sometimes it Happens

Elle has, to my knowledge, an older brother and older sister. I say “to my knowledge” because it has been a shamefully long time since I sat down to work at this draft and they come up mostly in flashbacks. The siblings, I mean, not Elle. Oh yes and Elle looked up to them but was not really an overachiever and they definitely were.

I guess... depends... on a lot of things... but I will quit here for now.

THE ONE AND ONLY UNIVERSE OF KAY RAINIER

Atlas had a lot of adoptive and one biological sibling(s), but he’s only in contact with Leah now for his own peace of mind. She essentially raised him, and she misses him every time he leaves for work.

Constantine has/had two brothers; Ariel and Milton (both younger, and in that order.) Milton was killed at the age of eight, and Ariel seceded from the family as an adult. Milton’s death was nearly objectively not Constantine’s fault, but Ariel’s leaving is less clear-cut. 

Ooooooh @paula-writes this is so hard! FnF is pretty much entirely about relationships so picking just one is impossible???? Let’s just do some highlights

Tybee/Gil: they’ve gone from utterly toxic for each other to something that helps them both grow and thrive. I love when you can turn a relationship around, without it having to make excuses for the “bad” partner. They were both just really young when they met, and it’s hard to be with someone before you grow up/have healthy habits. I’m happy for them that they have made it work

Gil/Adiran: I’m SOOOOO happy for Gil that he’s got someone who worships him/cherishes him/treasures him like he should be treasured. Gil had some serious self esteem issues thanks to Tybee, and Adiran’s love has really opened Gil’s eyes up to the idea that he might be something special himself

Rhia/Tybee: It’s good for Tybee to get a taste of his own medicine

Kyle/Gil: I love that Gil has a place he can go to experience close friendship and zero attraction. I think it’s a good touchstone for him, to know he can be intimate with someone just because they’re important to each other, and not have it be tangled up in other feelings (same for Lia/Kyle tbh)

Gil/Cam: cause it’s fun to see Gil be assertive for once XD

realistic, practical, and down-to-earth, where friendships are made and adventures are sought after; you have joined 1/3!

be careful though, one of you is not quite human…
