[throw rin overboard because rang doesn't know what to do with feelings. he raises an eyebrow at the word MUSCLES? but like, his own brother is weird too so,]
Did you play catch with him?
[that's what humans do with their dads right... like in free willy]

... No! I just don't know what to say to that. Why's your brother so shitty?
no subject
...]
He's always been that way. Have you ever met a narcissist before?
[don't include rang in that]
no subject
I mean... there are some swimmers that are pretty arrogant and stuck up.
no subject
He's a lot like that. He was told he was the best his entire life, and he believes it too. He never thinks he's in the wrong, and he never apologizes.
[the way rang is making it clear that he has unresolved issues, anyway]
I bet you're glad you don't have to live with those swimmers.
no subject
Ah... Yeah. [ he just lives with nitori who is obsessed with him ] What about the rest of your family?
[ does he even have a normal family ]
no subject
My mother's dead and my father probably is too? I never met him.
[i can drop the lore here that rang's father is actually the most insane,]
Is your family normal?
no subject
Uh, well, relatively. My little sister, Gou, is pretty cute. She's obsessed with muscles, which is kind of embarrassing.
My mom is good too. She can be embarrassing in her own way, but she's always been supportive.
[ help, gets quiet because he misses them ]
My dad passed away when I was pretty young.

Did you play catch with him?
[that's what humans do with their dads right... like in free willy]
no subject
I... guess. Mostly I remember swimming with him. And going on his fishing boat.

Do... gumiho grow up with families like humans do?
no subject
...Are you asking me about how gumihos are born?
[the tone of his voice is like 'do you need to hear a how sex works talk']
no subject
I'm just trying not to make assumptions!
no subject
...rang like why am i answering this but maybe it's because rin said he didn't want to assume.... maybe]
I don't know. [thanks rang] The only gumiho I've ever known is my brother. If there are any others, then they died a long time ago.
But I did grow up with him, so he was 'family' for a time.
no subject
[ oh help he just said that without thinking ]
Do you, uh, know other non-humans?
no subject
with a very straight face,]
Yeah. Have you ever seen N*ruto?
no subject
There's no way you know N*ruto!!
no subject
I met the fox they based N*ruto on.
no subject
Stop messing with me!!
no subject
I'm telling the truth?
no subject
[ tries to smack him again ]
no subject
[STOP SMACKING HIM? he picks up the other oar to do battle]
no subject
[ im going to say they battle and rin falls out
rang is now sailing away without him ]
no subject

no subject
I'm going to kill you.
[LUNGES AFTER!!!!]
no subject
[ except he swims toward Rang to hug him ]
