Sorry...sorry...excuse me!

OK, late DE is go! Spinning off of yesterday's brilliant topic, what does family mean to your character? How do they define it? How do they feel about it?  And whatever other thoughts they might have about it.

Wei Wuxian will move heaven and earth for his family... with the small caveat that he will follow his morals above what his family wants. He will forever feel guilt over his shijie's death, and will forever feel that he has failed his shidie, and... well. That's just something he'll have to deal with.

Jon doesn't have a good grip on 'family'. He is very loyal to his friends, and will fight for those he loves, but... only child raised by a grandmother who didn't know what to do with him. Family ties aren't terribly strong, or something he gets terribly sentimental over.

Klaus... He loves his brothers and sisters (and with today's news, brothers and sister, and whenever I get past S2 Klaus will have ALL the fun correcting any and all references to his siblings with a sharpie). Anyway, he loves them, but he doesn't necessarily like them. Or trust them. But he knows how to be around them? So.

Cecil for a fair portion of canon, defines 'family' as either 'his sister and his niece ' or 'All Of Night Vale', depending on how sentimental he's being/how much Steve Carlsburg is bugging the everloving crap out of him. Then it becomes 'his sister and his niece and his Carlos +/- Old Woman Josie' or 'All Of Night Vale'. Then it becomes his sister and his niece and Carlos and Steve +/- a mysterious niece (who is this niece, help, where did the niece come from) +/- his brother depending on what timeline we're in oh btw that timeline sucks oops' ... or 'All of Night Vale', in turns. Cecil is fiercely defensive of his family, and loves them dearly, and is so, so proud of them. They are the best.
