relations [closed]

[blue_ice]

Who: Seto, Xander, and Siebren
Where: Quiet car booth
When: Llama 16
What: Having accidentally made a discovery about the nature of their relationship, a trio works things out.
Warnings: physical and mental abuse, long-term trauma, war...basically it's a doozy folks

Seto is feeling a strange rush of emotion as he makes his way to the agreed meeting place. What had hung between them as a backdrop has now been spoken aloud and confirmed. He'd already known Xander was his loving, somewhat overbearing, but nevertheless appreciated brother. But he'd voiced that terrifying realization to Siebren and it had been...accepted.

This, of course, meant it was time to be honest with each other. Seto had already told them the bits of his story he couldn't hide back when they first met, but...there was more, wasn't there?

He awaits Siebren and Xander, standing in the middle of a quiet car with a neutral stance and slight smile. He's laid out a small pile of drinks and snacks on the front end of one bench...surely they won't be missed at the party.

"Hey," is how he greets them, a hint of a smile on his face. They're here for a serious reason, maybe several...but even he has to admit it feels good to not be so uncertain about what they are anymore.

There was more. There was always more. Of course, Xander's going to lead with the threatened hug--he'll get Seto used to accepting such manhandling if it's the last thing he does. (Someday, it may very well be...)

"Hey," he says back, looking up to Siebren and then to Seto. He looks a bit--worried? Uncharacteristically worried, yes, and Cottonball has moved off of her usual spot on one braid to bury her fluffy self in his neck--not even glancing at the treats. Utterly unlike her, even.

Yes, Xander can be somewhat overbearing, but his usually glib and self-assured...self has escaped him for the moment, and he's left without words and speechless. Not that this is even his first time that a family has accepted him, but when it comes to him he tends to be emotionally stupid. The first time had to be a fluke, right?
