My Camp Nano story is a dystopian urban fantasy following a pair of siblings who end up on opposite sides of a civil war and I... Want To Draw Them, but they make me sad.

#Kilian and Tomi are 11 years apart #Kil is trans and can't transistion because it's.. Not Legal but he's also so scared for his life that he stays on the side of the evil gov #and he's basically turned into a child soldier at 14 because he was the most advanced student they'd had since his 'brother'#the non-binary bean that is Tomi who fled for his own life when he was 15 because he's also autistic and he found out that Despite his #Great Potential he was considered a 'societal liability' and he wasn't 'improving' and he'd run out of chances #which tbh was just like 4 people at that time but they welcomed them GLADLY because none of them had Magic Potential and Tomi DID #and in the rebellion they were free to be more authentic to their identity so That's Nice #Tomi kept tabs on their brother and through secret connections and A Lot of hacking did everything they could to protect Kil while he was #growing up and bbnmnjkl that just makes it hurt more when I tell you that the first time they come face to face again Tomi tries to hug Kil #and Kil uhhhh stabs them #They barely survived and tbh they only did because they're better at magic than Kil #AND KIL IS jjkbjbhb A PRECIOUS ANGEL WHO IS JUST T E R R I F I E D FOR HIS LIFE #up until that point Kil thinks about how much he misses his mising big brother Often #and he's BAWLING as he realizes Tomi is part of the rebellion because he's just too scared to risk his life #because he'd rather be alive and trapped in an inauthentic life than dead #and he doesn't want their parents to lose ANOTHER son like they lost Tomi #''Maybe this is better Tom. Like this Mom and Dad don't have to know that you left us.'' <-- trying to justify the stabbing to himself while #he's sitting there crying and running his fingers through Tomi's hair while he thinks Tomi is dying #And Tomi is just trying not to panic while they work on getting out of there without being stabbed again #it... Eventually works out but GOD it's hard #also saying it works out might be a little generous #Tomi understands what made Kil do what he did and he helps Kil still and the evil government is overthrown #but the two aren't ever really on good terms again after the stabbing #so it's very bittersweet even in the happy ending
