It's not really that different, honestly. Or at least from what I've heard, since, uh, we both know my own Maker situation is a little different from most given how he tends to be with current and former Novices alike. [As if she doesn't run headlong into that whole mess.]
Especially if it's a situation where you keep things platonic, it's... nice, I guess? Sometimes I want to throw him off the tallest tower for doing something stupid I have to deal with the consequences of, but at least I do so knowing he'd survive the fall.
That right? I don't really stick my nose in other people's blood claims usually, but your guy has a bunch of novices, right? Even having Eden feels kinda weird. Can't imagine dealing with a bunch of them.
[ Like, hey, guess what! New sibling! And she's young as hell and makes him think about his daughter. His feelings are complicated... ]
With Karma it's real easy. They're there for me, and I'm there for them. Works real well around the lab too, since we don't always gotta talk to get shit done. I don't think I'd have it in me to get mad at them, but then I'm the kind of idiot who believes in respecting my elders and shit, so that might be part of it.
[ They did try having sex a few times but it was a disaster, Bones is not talking about that. ]
Honestly, it's better to not question Raphael's whims and the interest he takes in people. But it's... not quite as awkward for us, but that's probably because we're Red and function a little differently than most. ... Or also perhaps Astarion and I are far more alike than one might think. His newest, though, I'm watching and waiting to see what happens there, however. But calling us "siblings" is perhaps not quite the right term for the things we do.
[That's her bondage buddy, thank you very much.]
Oh right, you do have that cute little novice as your "sibling", don't you?~ She's a fascinating one to keep an eye on, admittedly, she's even managed to trick me once. Which is quite a difficult feat, daring~
That would be rather useful for you, wouldn't it? With the whole medical... thing [Lydia you literally have seen these people so many times for the stupidest of shit.] There's not much need for us to really bother with all of that, so can't really... relate... though there was more of that as a Novice, primarily to warn and scold as needed.
You seriously believe that respecting our elders bullshit????? You're just precious, Leonard.
I know what you mean. [ He doesn't. ] Siblings ain't quite right. I'm more like her uncle than her brother -- she's old enough to be my daughter and I sure as hell ain't unpacking all that.
All told, she's a whole lot of things, I'll give her that much. And smarter than she lets on by half. Well, in some things, anyway. Girl needed better parents, that's for damn sure.
Karma and me, we work well together and we think about things in a lot of the same ways. Wouldn't trust anyone else to cut me open, and the feeling's mutual.
[ Surgery should not be a casual thing to talk about and yet. Bones does do casual surgery. It's just a thing he does. ]
It's called basic fucking courtesy, Lydia. My mother didn't raise no fool.
