a list of ways siblings can be that might be more interesting than [everything is happy and good and don't we love to unironically and uncritically uphold the primacy and value of blood relations]:
"you are so much better a person than i will ever be, and it's not right because i'm the older one. you're the second try who far outstripped our parents' biggest dreams in ways i never could."
"i am really really tired of being idolized but you've staked so much of your identity on being The Bad One and found such freedom in it that i kind of feel further trapped in this role and maybe resent you for it."
"i only like you because we grew up together. sometimes we laugh about some old inside joke and i can feel the gaps growing between us and i wonder what our lives would have looked like if i met you in any other context. i'm beginning to think we only care about each other out of some sense of obligation neither of us has successfully rooted out yet."
"we're siblings, so this relationship is inherently good and pure and important. don't worry, i'm not really hurting you. this is how siblings are. i've never hurt you, actually. we love each other so much, don't we?"
"i got out. you didn't."
"our parents suck and the best and safest way to keep them off my back is to pretend to be helping you and then throw you under the bus when the time is right."
"you know things about me that i would never tell anyone, and your presence in my life is making it impossible to maintain the carefully constructed new identity i've built away from our family. i need you gone, now."
"if we play the role of siblings well enough, everything that's wrong with our family can be fixed."
