#younger sisters

[watercolored-life]

I hope my sister knows that she can talk to me. Why doesn't she know that? If there is no one else she can talk to, she can talk to me. I've known her for her entire life, I know everything about her. The way she smiles when she's happy, the way she leans away when she's uncomfortable, even that face she makes that tells me when she wants us to get out of the house. I know her. I know our parents and I know how they treated us, I know more than anybody else.

So why won't she talk to me? She used to tell me everything. She would crawl into bed with me and share secrets. Bed time was always filled with whispers, giggles, and snippets of conversations. Even as a teenagers, we shared a room and would talk. Spewing out every nasty secret or expereince that felt too heavy to keep inside.

But now she won't talk to me. She won't take my calls and she purposely avoids my texts. Does she blame me? Does she blame me for leaving? For moving away and out of that childhood homes where the stink of old memories stained the walls like blood? She resents me for leaving and that's why she feels like she can't tell me anything anymore.

If she would just give me a chance to explain then maybe I could tell her. How I had to get out of that town before I was suffocated by the ghost of memory and drowned ambition. If she understood all that I went through as the eldest daughter then maybe she wouldn't be so quick to shut me out and resent me for the things she didn't know.

But she won't give me the chance to explain so I must go on being there for her. Standing by her side though she doesn't know I'm there. Ready to be there when she needs me. I must stay by her side even if she is not looking for my help.

Omg, my youngest 8-year-old sister wrote the most adorable little story about "Grace and the Magic Spiral". It's utterly confusing and bamboozling and delightful and filled with grammar mistakes to the brim. It's putting my twenty-three chapter fic to shame. My OCs are nothing compared to hers. She got the characters:

Share pare

Lala (pronounced 'Layla')

Lost pricess (pronounced 'princess')

Grace

Rainbow Run

Big Boss Black Boss

and Princess Ree

Honestly, 10/10. Novel recommendation. I give it ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5) stars.

Now, I shall invite the author herself to speak her brilliant and stunning thoughts.

(Note: I told her that she was writing a message for my friends cuz if I tell her "social media" or "tumblr", she gonna go and snitch to my parents, "Baji (what she calls me) shared my story to tumblr" Yeah no. I dont wanna die.)

Quo in dialogue quotation marks, her youngest sister in normal font, any other guest appearances are labelled. Brackets are for clarification. Ms Teacher is not the real name, but a placeholder name.

"What were your thoughts when writing the story?"

So, I thought of Grace and the Magic Spiral, I wrote it since 2nd grade, and I done book-making about it. And she (Grace) looks like Dora.

"Why does she look like Dora?"

Because I thought of Dora and I realized. That. She could look like that. And. She has a friendship bracelet. That is different to Dora's. So. She (Dora). Will. Get. Jealous.

(the fullstop mean that she's pausing btw)

"Why did you write this story?"

I wanted to be creative and I thought about Grace and the Magic Spiral. But in Ms Teacher's room, I saw an image of the spiral. There was a screen and there was like an image of a spiral *makes a spiral gesture*

"What inspired this story?"

It reminds me of Dora.

"Why do you like Dora so much?"

Because she teacher, like, to learn lessons. And, you know, and she like says "no swiping" and she says to always be nice and give your friends something and always be nice and not to do anything wrong, like swiping. So she says "Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping" three times. *holds up three fingers*

...She looks very pretty

"She looks PRETTY???"

Yeah, and she is fun.

"Alright. Weirdo. Okay, tell me about the drawings you made at the back of the page."

So, Share Pare and Layla are wearing onesies. And the Rainbow Run are like me and my friends, but they're a little different, they make a lot of friends. And Big Boss Black Boss who is kamnis-

"What is kamnis?"

It's just a made-up name!

"Ooooookay. Go on."

And she (kamnic/Big Boss Black Boss idk i'm confused too) is trying to make friends, but she has no friends but she became popular and she was an author. And she- and she was- she- and she- and she was includiver.

"Do you mean 'inclusive'?"

Yeah.

"Okay, [my sister's name]. So! Did any person inspire you to write?"

Ms Teacher.

"..."

You know why?

"Why?"

Because she forces us- she forces my classmates to like write a narrative which is a made up or real life (story). So we listen to her because she's the best teacher.

"Is there... anyone else who inspired you to write?"

Abbu (father) and Mamma (mother).

Other sister interrupting: Me! And me! I showed you Dora episodes on my phone!

"Shut up. Anyways, is there anyone else? Literally? Anyone else?"

Other sister: ME!

"Anyone?"

You!

"YESSS! THAT'S RIGHT! Come here, *gives a giant bear hug* Beebee (baby)"

*giggles*

Other sister: You're not giving her a proper bear hug.

"I'm holding her with one arm and typing with the other. That's enough."

*meanwhile, youngest sis runs off to mother*

"Moochi (my nickname for her) ran off."

That's it, folks! An exclusive interview with the world-renowed author: my youngest sister.

yk we can talk about the heart breaking experience of being the eldest sister. but nobody talks about the most soul shattering part, when your youngest sister spends $15 of your own dollars on starbucks. around a little under an hour of your time at work.

I love you to all the younger sisters, first born daughters who had to live with expectations because they have a smart older brother. I love you to all the girls that thought they weren't enough because they were constantly told so, and to all the girls that had to prove themselves. I love you, and I'm with you.

[noodle-the-queen]

so my little sister went to prom tonight. and i’m trying to cope with the fact that she isn’t my baby sister anymore, she’s not my tiny middle schooler, she’s 16 and so mature and i just can’t handle it 😭 also she had a much smoother sophomore year than i did (for anyone confused, the high school prom in our area is for juniors/seniors but they can invite a sophomore, her friend took her) like everything has gone so well for her aside from a few boy-drama issues. but like. what 16 year old girl doesn’t have crush drama at some point yk? basically im just trying to say i am SO proud of how much she’s grown but i want to say it somewhere where she won’t be embarrassed at all my gushing, so im yelling into the tumblr void

Abby finally meets FNAF game Michael Afton

[stuckinstardewvalley]

i think the reason older sisters hate seeing themselves in their younger sisters is because we have such a negative self image, we can't think of anything good about ourselves and when you see negative traits in our younger sisters it feels like they have that because of you. like you weren't good enough to save them from those habits or traits.

Younger siblings are the personification of a bowling ball made out of skittles and hand-me-downs

Anyone ask for aeriseph sibling nonsense? No? Well too bad they live in my head rent free.

[random-fun-polls]

what's the largest age gap between your siblings?*

< 2 years

3-5 years

6-8 years

9-10 years

10-13 years

14-17 years

18-21 years

22+ years

only child option

*basically, if you have 3 siblings e.g.; A(10), B(18) and C(24), then the biggest age gap would still be between the youngest and the oldest (14 years) regardless of the middle sibling (sorry guys)

*if you have multiple siblings, count the age gap between the oldest and youngest siblings
