I'm trained to record history! Which I use journals for, so that future Bookman can memorize what I've wrote.

[pathopen]

Bookman? Because that's your family?

[bookpapers]

Hmm, kind of. It's my clan. I'm not connected by blood to them, though.

[pathopen]

Isn't family... something people choose?

[bookpapers]

It can be, yeah! It can be something you choose or people who you're related to. Sometimes both.

[pathopen]

[A pause because he's not sure how to explain this.]

I have siblings, but it's complicated.

[bookpapers]

[hmmm]

Are they Homunculi like you?

[pathopen]

Yes.

[He would never call the mages his siblings.]

[bookpapers]

...Do you miss 'em?

[pathopen]

... I wish I knew them enough to miss them.

[bookpapers]

[...]

You can still miss someone you don't know. Like... missing the opportunity to get to know them.

[pathopen]

[He did not know this was a thing before... news to him.]

I see. In that case... that's how I feel about my siblings.
