y’all ever see a sibling interaction in media and just know….it was written by an only child

the thing about siblings is I wanted a dog and I got a younger sister and then a younger brother instead and you love them and would die for them but you’re also ready to take them out at any second zero (0) hesitation and because you’re forced to spend all of your time with these other humans for like the first 20 years of your lives all of that love and anger manifests itself into sarcasm and arguments and tricking them into doing stupid shit that you knew would end bad and it’s all surrounded by a constant refrain of “don’t tell mom”

I don’t know a single set of siblings that shows their love and devotion to each other by always getting along and always being super affectionate and supportive all while calling each other “big sis” and “little bro” (if i wanted to be that condescending I would be more creative than just pointing out birth order) but that doesn’t mean they don’t love each other it’s just shown in different ways
