      My sister and I would make people around us uncomfortable with our “fighting” but the second someone tries to butt in and take one side, we both would jump down their throats that they have no right to talk shit about the other sibling. And Your Deity help you if you actually raise a hand against one sibling, because you might catch a baseball bat in the neck from the other.

      It’s like my mother. I am allowed to call my mom an asshole for certain things, but the second someone else does it, that’s not cool.

          Well, yeah. Like if I call my car, living space, family a piece of shit it’s fine because it’s mine to call that.

          If you call it a piece of shit we have an issue.

        My sibling is quite a bit younger than me. Mom came to pick me up from school and they were asleep in the car

        A classmate of mine said “Imma peg that windshield with a rock to see if I can wake that kid up.” I was like “… What…?” And he repeated himself

        I very clearly stated that was my sibling and if he woke them up I’d be fucking pissed. He didn’t go ahead with stated plans. Dude was a menace; I coincidentally had stayed home sick the day he called in a bomb threat. But at least I put him in his place once in his life

        I get the protection even if they’re your adversary. At home I’d be constantly bothered and annoyed by them but don’t you even fucking dare say a single negative word about them or hell will rain on you
