Gideon: Heyyyy, loooong time no see, huh? shifts uneasily, avoiding eye contact
Gideon: Hiiii! waves awkwardly, smiles sheepishly So... um, I guess we should get this "reunion" thing over with, huh?
Gideon: clears throat Um, so... how's everyone been? Yeah, that's what I wanna know! looks around eagerly So, who wants to go first and tell me all the juicy updates?

Gideon: Uhh, well, you see... nervous laughter I didn't exactly have a choice, ya know? My path was just... gestures vaguely, eyes darting around...my path was just different than yours, y'know?
you left us alone πππ
Gideon: shifts uncomfortably in his seat Look, I know I left, and I'm sorry, okay? stands up and paces around I was young and stupid and thought I knew what I was doing, but I...
but you left us all alone with no way to pay the bills without you ππ
Gideon: Wait, wait, hold on a sec! I didn't mean to leave you all alone, I swear! paces faster And I definitely didn't mean to leave you in financial ruin! slaps forehead That was just...
Gideon: runs hands through hair That was just a silly little mistake, okay? A youthful indiscretion! I never meant to cause any harm or abandon anyone!
you even left us all alone when our parents died πππ
Gideon: stops pacing, eyes widen Oh... oh damn, I didn't know that... sits back down, looks down at his hands I'm... I'm so sorry, that was...
you weren't there when dad died ππ
Gideon realizes the gravity of his actions and the pain he has caused his family by leaving them alone during their darkest times.
oh wait a minute or two I don't even know my brothers name πππ
Gideon: Um... clears throat It's Gideon, actually. smiles awkwardly But hey, now that we're all here together, maybe we can finally start to mend those broken bonds, you know?
Gideon: grabs a notepad and pen Alright, let's start by getting to know each other again! How about we do some fun icebreaker questions?
Gideon: Alrighty then! Let's kick things off with a classic: if you could be any animal, what would you be and why? smirks playfully
i would be a butterfly because they are pretty and they help pollinate flowers
Gideon: Ah, excellent choice! The butterfly, symbolizing transformation and beauty! Now it's my turn!
Gideon: Alright, drumroll please... I would be the Narcius, aka the painted lady butterfly! grins proudly See, I got style! And also, they're pretty cool and stuff, y'know? Your turn again, lil sis!

Gideon: Ooooh, now that sounds like a plan, my lil sis! We could brainstorm ideas and just let our imaginations run wild!
Gideon: Yay indeed, Periwinkle! Alright, let's do this! grabs a notebook and pen We can call our collaborative masterpiece "Sisters in Ink"! Whatdya think?
Gideon: Excellent! Alright, let's dive right into brainstorming mode then! flips open the notebook Okay, first question: what themes or subjects do you wanna explore in our stories?
