I can't really remember. But I've always been close to the academy.

[justblueit]

--So, what is your backstory?

[gonerouge]

Well I-- hey!! I asked you first.

[justblueit]

Hey! I told you things! Now you tell me things!

[gonerouge]

You only told me that your family was from Mexico and that you speak Spanish.

[justblueit]

Exactly.

Now tell me things.

[gonerouge]

Okay. [you reap what you sow, lance.] I grew up an orphan, no one wanted to adopt me, so the moment I could, I left the orphanage to join the academy. You know the rest.

[justblueit]

--Well, that was more depressing than I expected.

[gonerouge]

It's not something I like to talk about a lot. That's why I stayed at the academy during breaks.

[justblueit]

...Oh.

[gonerouge]

Anyway-- [he turns to look at lance.] What about you? What's your family like?

[justblueit]

...Do I have to? I mean, I feel awkward now because it's like I'm rubbing my big family in your face?

[ wait shit ]

[gonerouge]

It's fine, I've had to deal with people rubbing their families in my face for a long time. I'm used to it.

[justblueit]

Are you sure? I mean, I know I'm an asshole but I try to keep my asshole to just "I'm a jerk to you because I like you" levels.

[gonerouge]

So you're a jerk to me because you like me?

[justblueit]

Wait--did I just say that?

[gonerouge]

[he nods.] Does this mean I'm going to have to be a jerk to you and the others?

[justblueit]

No, that's my thing.

You're just the socially awkward one.

[gonerouge]

[he reaches out and punches him in the arm. this he gets.]

[justblueit]

Ow! Hey, can you really disagree with that?

[gonerouge]

I don't really see how being a jerk to your friends is a good thing, but you've never made sense with the decisions you've made. [shrugs]

[justblueit]

Hey, I always make sense.

[gonerouge]

[he shoots lance a pointed look] You going to tell me what your family is like, or am I going to have to make it up?

[justblueit]

Okay, so before I begin, tell me...

At what point would you call a family "big"?
