Getting along with siblings

[mega_bluebomber]

I've been a little down in the dumps lately, thinking too much about the general indifference mankind has toward me - and I mean me as a person, not me as a hero. I'm working through that on my own, though, and right now I'm trying to distract myself by focusing on smaller, more managable issues I have

That general indifferance thing?

Get used to it.

[mega_bluebomber]

You! What are you- How long have you been here? *scowls*

[vileascanbe]

Couple days. Why?

I hear I'm taller in your universe.

And what? I would think you'd realize that the world sees you as nothing more than a walking gun.

[mega_bluebomber]

You are, and I wanted to know so that I could figure out how much damage you've probably caused so far. Tried to steal any litanium lately, Vile?

Like I said, I'm dealing with that.

Ya gotta know how to realize the point when he's stopped being one of the Little Ones ya had to tell what to do often, and started being, well, still someone ya gotta look after, 'cause ya never stop being a big brother, but someone who can manage most of his own affairs.

Try to recognize and appreciate the different skills and goals y'all have and the different choices of life y'all have made.

Ya also gotta expect that he ain't gonna always respect ya as much as ya might think he oughta.

Pitch has only been around for a few months. We're both robots, so I never had to watch him grow up or take care of him while he was little.

And finding out what those are would probably require talking to him. >.>

Yeah, I learned that one real fast. I don't think he's ever respected me.

[projectileszg]

Well, talking might be advisable. Best resolution of fraternal hostility Ah ever managed was to take him out flying and talk...and listen, which was part of Josh's problem with me in the first place.

[mega_bluebomber]

*sighs* I guess it really is the only solution. I still don't want to do it. I will, but Pitch can be such a brat sometimes.

Considering how many of us there are? There are some I care for quite a lot, some I'm just ok with, some I can barely tolerate, and a few I'd honestly have to say I'm glad they're in the Gallery right now.

As for making things better, he's new, isn't he? Take time to get to know him.

[mega_bluebomber]

...taking advice from a Wily-bot. Not normally on my list of things I do. In this case, though, yeah. That seems to be the general consensus.

[feathers_in_wax]

Technically, I'm only half that.

And it works with most. Some, however... Well, just be glad you don't have Forte for a younger sibling.

[mega_bluebomber]

Not in my universe.

Oh yes. I'm definitely glad about that. *turns just the slightest shade and is not going to even mention Forte-chan in this conversation*
