The "Adopted" Sibling or Child Meme


They say blood is thicker than water. Family is everything. But what about the family you choose, the ones that aren't necessarily bound to you by shared blood? Sometimes, they can be closer than anyone you're just related to through chance. You chose them, after all!

This person in particular is someone you're closer to than almost anyone; it's more than friendship, it's darn near familiar. No, more than darn near, it is familial. They may be younger than you, maybe even by a considerable margin, but they may not be. They could just seem that way, in their innocence or vulnerability. You want to protect them more than anything, keep them close, and spend time with them so their life can be improved by whatever you can do.

Officially or unofficially, you've adopted them as your own. Your family, with you as an older sibling or parent figure. This could make things better for them...or worse.

❤ Comment with your character info and the ilk. Be sure to include whether or not your character is more likely to be the adopter or the adoptee. Or both, I don't mind. No judgement here.
❤ Reply to others.
❤ Cute familial fluff, even for the darkest of characters and canons. If Murder: The Anime can do it, so can you!

Sun Ce | Dynasty Warriors

[ Welcome to the Sun family, and enjoy your new, doting big brother/young-ish father figure. Your life expectancy just got cut in half. ]

[ If he wanted a bigger family, he could just ask Izumo, that idiot thief was probably all for more people joining his nomad tribe.

No but really, Oguna doesn't know how to treat a parent, not after he killed his biological father during the revolt that he had parttaken in. His idiot older brother seemed happy, sure, but then he had a completely different disposition overall towards..well.. everything at all.

So there was a pretty sulky young assassin up on a roof, a crow on his shoulder, and weapons hidden in his clothes because he never really felt he could be without them, not after what happened with Tagino.

He watches the people passing on the ground, precariously balancing on just one-toothed geta, without wavering, up on a rise of the roof. He's not really sure what he's looking for, or at, except people being people, something he honestly wasn't too familiar with. ]

[ Most of the time, Sun Ce is the easygoing, carefree sort. But when it comes to those close to him, he has a tendency to fret... albeit in his own, understated way.

He knows Oguna has had a difficult time of things. Being trained as an assassin from a young age and having his memories sealed was bad enough, but facing his own father in battle... there weren't many who would be willing to take such a boy into their family, but Sun Ce was confident.

While he's hardly clumsy, he isn't exactly the picture of grace and finesse, either. There's no masking his footsteps as he approaches from behind. ]

Ah... you know, it always scares me a little bit when I see you like that.

[ He places a hand on the back of his neck, rubbing it as he approaches. ]

[ It's impossible to mistake the sound of those footsteps, at least when you were used to putting the sound of each and every person simply moving into memory, and Sun Ce wasn't exactly the soundless type.

Oguna looked over his shoulder, to watch the man as he approached. For several moments, he stayed silent, then looked forward again, putting an elbow against a knee and resting his chin against his palm. ]

It's not like I'm going to fall.

[ He's confident in this, as he has perfect control over his body. ]
