When asked if he has a favorite sibling, Taru would always switch between each of his youngest siblings. He loves the three of them so much! However, his favor does unconsciously tend to veer towards which of them happened to spend time with him most recently.
#hc; tartaglia#//Teucer tends to sway to be his favorite most often chronologically as of Childe's SQ#//Just bc he's spending more time training him up and getting to know the kiddo; esp after all That#//Seeing traces of his younger self in him; wanting to protect and ensure the kid is strong enough to hold his own#//Seeing Teucer's smile when he tells tales of his favorite little Traveler; when he talks abt his job#//For some reason; he actually dreads what will happen when Teucer is old enough to Understand the reality of it#//Not if Teucer would hate him for lying for his sake; that's not what he's concerned#//It will hurt if he is upset; yes; but he's more worried if Teucer starts asking why he got sent to the army so early on#//Would rather not have the kid learn the exact extent of his troubles with the Abyss plunge & how their fam couldn't handle him after it#//Esp if Teucer in fact gets upset with the others in the family as a result of it#//Taru really wants to preserve Teucer's innocence and good heart so much. Wants to preserve the family and his view of them#//Even if it means Teucer's view of him would take a hit. He'd rather that than still be admired and have Teucer resent their family#//However he also really does want to fight alongside Teucer someday. Wants to be the one to pin his Delusion; or grant his first weapon#//Wants to help make his precious little brother one of the finest Snezhnaya has ever seen; even surpassing himself#//He would be so proud if so. He has full confidence he will be. He's got such a great goal to fight for; after all!#//Tho Teucer resenting him might serve that goal better; who knows. Esp if the boy decides to challenge him one day#//Oop; this turned into a Taru & Teucer post lol#//But ye#//He doesn't really care as much for any of his older siblings; not anymore; same with his father#//They were his everything as a kid; then when they distanced themselves from him; he reciprocated the sentiment accordingly#//He still loves them dearly; ofc; and sends his gifts to them from his travels; like the others#//But his favor is most definitely with his younger siblings. THEIR views of him didn't change when he came back from the Abyss#//THEY are Sneznhaya's future!#//Idk; listening to a soundtrack got me thinkin' abt Ajax & Teucer of the myths#//That's prolly why the post veered to them so much lmao
