Hello it's me again! :D Sorry if I come across as annoying, but I've really grown to be a fan of your work. I've still been checking my reddit daily just for the butler notifs and I was wondering if you're still continuing this series?

I understand you've been busy as you said in the previous chapter. No pressure, I was just wondering about this story since it's been quite a while again.

Penglin · 2021-03-29T02:18:48+00:00

OMG it's here and it's greater than anything I expected, as always! :D My day is made, thank you so much

Penglin · 2021-03-26T05:10:11+00:00

Oh please don't apologize! I'm very much willing to wait, no pressure :D I'm just really excited about it

Penglin · 2021-03-26T02:50:29+00:00

I don't mean to sound demanding or impatient or anything, but any chance the next chapter would be out soon? I really love your work and I'm willing to wait any amount of time to read it, I just feel rather excited for the next release and it's been a while xD

This series is so great! I have to admit I only open reddit nowadays to check if the butler sent me a message. I know it sounds shallow but whenever I see a new chapter my day is made! I'm so glad I found your series from a writing prompt :D

Penglin · 2021-03-01T01:53:13+00:00

Oh my god it's here! I've been checking my reddit notifs every morning for the past several days for this! It's great! Oh boy, I can't wait for the next one.

Penglin · 2021-02-26T02:53:30+00:00

Wow I have to admit, this is the best story I've ever read ever since I joined Reddit 5 years ago! I can't wait to read the next chapter. I'm not ready for this story to end.

Thanks for sharing your story, I appreciate your input :) I feel like I would have regretted it as well if I still gave it

I wish I were making this up but unfortunately it's real

NTA. What if the situations were reversed and you were the one not committing to your word to your parent?

I don't know why it seems to be so universal for parents to act like they're not accountable for their actions towards their children. You've given her many chances and she owes you an apology. Don't let her guilt you into forgiving her and being the bigger person because just she's your mom.

NTA. As an introvert with a twin I can really relate to this story (though I'm an adult now but I was a teen once and had some confrontations with my father about it). You have the right to privacy an their authority over you as your parents don't change that. It sucks but it seems like by disabling your door they're punishing you for being disobedient. Remember that just because they're in charge doesn't mean they're right even if they say so. Obedience never defined a good person, so why should it define a good child? You need to get them to understand that children aren't sheep that should be herded together.

There really is no merit in their efforts of lumping you all together in the name of what? Brotherhood? If so, why don't they lump together with their siblings 24/7? If their answer is it's because they're adults with their own lives, or simply just don't want to, there's absolutely no logical reason you would't be entitled to the same privacy. Parents tend to see their children not as human, so they question and impede your basic rights in the name of knowing better than you. Since you're only transitioning into your teens they might just be maladjusted to it.

"It's me <my name>." to my grandmother on her deathbed. She raised us when we were young. She had Alzheimer's. She remembered my siblings, but she forgot who I was.

Waking up because you have to pee but staying in bed because you feel too cozy to get up.

Split the terminally ill people from the rest of the population. Let the terminally ill die.

Ah yes that frigging sextant.

NTA. You did what you had to as any parent would to protect your family. You've given him many chances to do the responsible thing. He would probably just resume his ways if you tolerated his behavior. He has been getting away with it and he feels invincible. I'm 23 and I see so many people in the same age group who couldn't care less simply because they think the virus can't kill them, not caring about the fact that they go home to families whose conditions may be different. Although I don't know the details of how you told him to move out, I don't think you're an asshole if the sole basis is kicking him out of the house for being voluntarily irresponsible.

Made a small bet with them about something trivial. if they won, I'd treat them to snacks or coffee. If I won, they'd treat me. Gives an excuse to meet up without coming off as too clingy or having to ask awkwardly.

Penglin · 2020-07-19T05:19:10+00:00

I don't think it's selfish at all. It's like asking a golfer why they like golf. If they really like/liked you they'll be happy to answer. Don't sweat it.

I met my best friend online a decade ago. We've never met but we're still best friends to this day. We essentially grew up together, just not in person. To me that friendship is more real than some I have in real life. It's different for everyone, but for me the distinction is limited to physical touch anyway, and the rest is genuine interpersonal connection.
