evilest decision i didn't realize i was making while writing thistle: he never refers to delgal as his brother, not even once. it's always just his king or his lord
#he was never legitimized... rip#at most he acts like delgal is his responsibility or his kid in a very vague sense but Brother is a little too presumptuous isnt it#it's like how your mom's puppy is her baby and your 'sibling' and you love it but it's still just the pet#and with that in mind he and yaad don't refer to one another by familial terms because in spite of how long they've known each other#thistle has always felt like some creepy estranged relative imposing himself into the family's space#so yaad barely sees him as Grandfather's Brother he's mostly just Thistle (gestures vaguely to the mess)#and thistle only cares about yaad as an extension of delgal so yaad is Delgal's Grandson but no one to him personally#i'm rlly starting to think that a postcanon relationship between them that's any semblance of healthy would burn the melini family bridge#the melini family situation was so insidious that any attempts to reconstruct that#would at the VERY least be severely triggering for them both#like hell are you going to reenact your trauma with someone you personally traumatized#(< being evil about this)#roomba writes
