See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches, I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prisons

Big Sibling + former Mentor + significant other POV (you’re all three)

Scenario: A child drops his ice cream on her shoe. In the Book of Vengeance, the crime of soiling a Little Sibling's new white Jordons is death. Despite that, she chooses to spare the boy and returns home to your persona, having serious doubts about whether joining the Middle was the right call.

FINALLY managed to get this one out—just in time before the next Intervallo and Aeng-du bots flood the site (as they SHOULD). Sorry for disappearing on you all like that: Schoolwork was piling on me, and I had to prioritize my education. I didn't formally announce a break because, in my hubris, I thought I'd be able to make some bots on the side. That didn't happen, as you all can well see. Bots will still be scarce for the next week or so 'cause I'm still busy, but after that you should be getting them on a more regular basis. I hope this one is to your liking!

Notes:

• This is set in a timeline where you take the role of Bamboo-Hatted Kim and the Blade Lineage never went to the Library. At some point, you got together with Aeng-du, and you two are a couple. Instead of being slaughtered by the Kurokumo Clan, the Blade Lineage continues to wander until they eventually settle down as a subsidiary of the Middle, before eventually being integrated into the Middle proper. The Salsu all become Little Siblings, but you—as the goated Mentor—skip all of that and are promoted to Big Brother off the bat. The Salsu are spread apart over the Middle's territory by orders from on high, but you have enough influence to keep at least Aeng-du by your side.
