Family....My aunt (Emelyn) has always described my family as Insanely large. And it could be considered that. I have a Mum, a StepMum, A Mum's boyfriend, two brothers, two sisters, a step brother and three jivvin sprites that live with us. Other people might think that my family is too big, but to me, having them around is as right as breathing out and breathing in.
Keppit:: Keppit's my Mum. She always has been and as far as I'm concerned she always will be. I remember being a small Skull Monkey and having Mum tie towels around my shoulders because I wanted to pretend to be a super hero. She was the first one there for me when I realized I was gay, and only two other people will ever even stand a chance of meaning as much to me as my Mum does. She used to have long blonde hair and ride around in sunglasses and a bright red sports car... now she's a member of the legion of walking undead, she wears no sunglasses and I drive the bright red sports car.
Ranald:: Ran's my StepMum. She's usually a nice person but I think she may have gotten most of Mum's bad qualities when she and Mum became two seperate people. Sometimes I have a hard time thinking of Ran in the same way I ken she thinks about me. I mean, before the zombification she and Mum were the same person, they had all the same experienes. That means that Ran remembers raising me and living with me as my only Mum. Now she's estranged from all that.
Gus:: Gus is my brother. I consider him younger but only because he took longer to grow than I did. We're actually almost the same age. Gus is a sweet, kind and caring guy. He's a jivvin and shorter than most. The poor guy is only 5'4". That's even shorter than Mum and Ran. I like Gus. He's as good a brother as any could ever want.
Saty:: Saty's the same age as Gus, but she came to live with us even later and that seems to have had sommat to do with her disopsition. She's very quick to take offense and easy to anger, but I think she's warming up to us as a family. I never thought she would, but I even heard her call Mum Mom the other day. She always called her Thing before. Saty's a good kid with a mixed up head.
Dromi:: He's my other brother. He came to live here already grown, but that's because his kind miss their physical childhood. That being said he's basically a great big 7' tall kid who plays sports and loves practical jokes. He's a good brother but I dinnae see him a lot. He prefers to live in the backyard in the company of one of the sprites.
Willie:: Willie's my little sister. Right now shes's a toad which means she doesnae talk much. Her full name is Annastaja Rashanine Willamine Canigi. Mum didnae ken what to name her and all of us kids wanted to name her different things. She's very daring and adventurous... she maked me dream of jungles. I dinnae ken how, but she does.
Alexander Edwards:: Alexander is a young Jivvin male with a big head and the values of a bad king. He's my step brother, son of Ranald, only jivvin in the house to be born in the care of his lifebond. He's also a royal pain in the rear and I can only hope he'll get better under Ran's care. I ken she can do it, I mean, she basically raised me.
Booker, Shade`, Rusty:: These three are little jivvin sprites. Booker loves to read and hangs out around Gus when he's not working. Shade` was over sensitive so Saty put her through a mini bootcamp and now the little pink sprite is obsessed with the army and always refers to Saty as sir. Rusty is a little prankster just like Dromi so he hangs out with Dromi in the backyard tent.... I think Mum intended Rusty to be a friend for me, but he reminds me of Isto... I tend to ignore the little sprite, I feel bad but I cannae take it.
