[rokkettodan]

•  Bro is found at age 12
• going by cannon year, Dove is born in 1982; first go around has her about 4 when Bro find her; he's a senior in HS so he just about turned 18
• going by these calc bros birth year is 1968
• jemima found bro at 12 in 1980; DJ is able to work by then, so he's at least 15, hinted that he's worked for a while, so 16-17 when Bro's brought into family
• this puts DJ's birthyear at 1964-65
• this makes jemima's birthyear 1937-8

age differences between siblings
       DJ --- 22; Bro -- 18; Dove - 4
       4 years between DJ and Bro, 14 years between Bro and Dove, 18 years between DJ and Dove

• DJ's age is fine; Dove needs to be found older by a younger Bro
• Ideal age difference: D=11, B-19; 8 years
• DJ 16, Bro found at 12; DJ 19, Bro 15, Dove found at 7

new years based on cannon

• Dove = Dec 2(?), 1995
• Bro = Dec 2, 1987
• DJ = Some Date, 1983
• Jemima = Some Date, 1956

FOR FUNSIES: CAL

• girl who he found = 1889 - 1960(died at 71)
• Daughter = 1929 - 1960(died at 61)
• Jemima/DJ = 1960 - 2007(Jemima at 51)
• Bro/Dove = 2007 - Current

Cal is at least 123 years old(fun fact, that's as old as the Aunt Jemima Company, which was founded in 1889)
Other things to take into account reguarding Cal:

• he died in a swamp
• he's been dead long enough to not remember his past
• he still remembers his name; or at least, is still partial to the name he's given himself for whatever reason
• i am incredibly curious about his past, but will probably never delve into it
• i may draw him though, he'll be kawaii

Yeeeesss

[rokkettodan]

ye
you wanna know what prompted me to do this this morning?
I wanted to write that scene where Dove thinks for 20 minutes that she might like bro in that way
and then of course cuddles because uvu~

[0dalesque]

The age difference is beautiful, not nearly as bad as Canon but still enough to make you feel like a link is being touched and then dissolved instantly as Dove thinks "nah man, that ain't me."

[rokkettodan]

exactly
and then everyone who reads this will be like NOOOOOOO STRIDERCEST COME BAAAAACCCKKKKK
hehehe

[0dalesque]

They'd want those striders to be all on eachother, even if it was a f/m relation.

[rokkettodan]

who doesnt
but yes they're the best sibs
the absolute best sibs
I still cant wait for bro to meet john
maybe dove did the whole 'sleep on the futon' thing as a test
to see how he could handle another strider
little did she know bro would only flip his shit harder after realizing this man who broke into his house didn't actually break in, but was let in, and he was alone in the house alone with Dove alone SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[0dalesque]

He fucking morphs into a Zapdos/Fearow/That American looking Pokemon from Black and White and tears Houston up in his silent protective rage and Cal has to babysit John so Bro doesn't freak out because gosh his little Sis brought a boY TO THE APARTMENT CREEEEWEAAAAAAAAWWW SCREEEEEEEWAAAA!!!!

Insert news report of a random man destroying public property all down in the ghetto.avi

[rokkettodan]

and Dove's trying to catch up and strife his anger/anxiety out because
fuck bro nothing happened a swear just calm down
polly want a cracker
ill buy polly a whole batch of fucking crackers not the saltines but real keebler flakey and buttery shit
Freedom is taking everything too far, listen to Peace and come home you overused internet meme
ZapFearIary(omg it's called Baviary) return
gdi bro get in the pokeball and come home im tired of chasing you around the neighborhood and telling the neighbors that no this isnt like the last time you went on a rage no hurricane bro hasnt returned no they dont need to barricade their windows and doorsand hide in the bathtub please put the shitty katana down and come home

[0dalesque]

Except instead of destroying public property he's sceathing with anger and destroying cars in the junk yard a block away, shooting dirty looks at people who wander too close or partake on thw terrifying spectacle for more than a few minutes.

When Dove tries to strife Bro he rejects the initiation immediately, retreating and partying the blows, heart sinking at how out of practice she is and he practically swells with rage that points to John as the cause and he absconds to corner that sonofabitch and how dare he get comfortable and fuck that guy I'm going to show that kid not to mess with the strIDER NAME SCREEEEEAAAAAAAAEWWWEWEWWEEEE!!!

[rokkettodan]

oh god and then shes all
fuck it this isnt working
and she sheathes her sword and reverts to what's natural and cling to him like a baby koala and hopes he eventually calms down or will at least be unable to kill john with her body as a hindrance
because like hell she's going to throw herself onto john as a shield, not only would that be really fucking embarrassing and not to mention awkward for both of them
but bro would only take to that like a nuclear reactor just waiting to make its first mushroom cloud of deadly radiation poisoning and john would be the unwilling victim
and like hell doves gonna let that happen John's the first decent guy she's met that treats her nicely even though he doesn't have too and isnt that asshat Ross who does it out of spite she's sure
so shed just cling to bro and hope her huggles calm him down enough to realize he's overreacting waaaaayyyyyy too much maybe she should have told him she was coming home and bringing john oh well too late to fix it
