Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?

[friggingawesome]

There are four of us altogether! Randell, me, Reggie and Rosie.

Randell

Randell’s two years older than me and he's the one who's most like me in the looks department: we're short-asses, we've got our mother's eyes and our father's smile and we've even ended up greying in the same pattern.

Compared to me, Randell's far more staid, but I've never been an average person. He's still a loud-mouth who loves a drink down the tavern with his friends, but he's also serious about keeping the orchard going strong for his grandkids.

He's actually the only one of us who've got grandkids, at least until Rosie's boys start spreading their wild oats. He had my niece, Annette, when he was twenty and she's got three kids of her own now: a four year old terror and twin one-year olds. I don't envy her one bit, but at Randell and Ma's there to help corral them too!

Reggie

[friggingawesome]

Reggie's a year younger than me and the one who's most like me in personality. We and Randell were three peas in a pod when we were little, always getting into trouble, and Reggie and Randell have stayed the same way. Reggie's main passion is making cider from the apples the orchard grows. It's good stuff, strong enough to knock your socks off! He's been experimenting with recipes and barrelling methods for decades, which I understand. Complacency is the enemy of any true craftsman!

Family-wise, he's in a funk after splitting up with his partner last year. I drag him up to the city as often as I can so he gets the chance to cut loose and have some fun, but he's decided he's too old to be sleeping about willy nilly and wants to find someone to make him a forever home. That's where he and I don't see eye to eye, but I'm keeping an eye out on his behalf.

Rosie

[friggingawesome]

Rosie's the baby of the family. She's eight years younger than me, which means she never got to share the same sort of bond the rest of us had, but we doted on her anyway when she wasn't being a snotty brat. She's a girly girl unlike me and was the apple of our father's eye (I'm hilarious, I know!). She learnt cooping from him as she grew up and nowadays she lives three towns over with her husband and boys. She's banned them from coming to my shop until they're fully grown adults, but pah! If they turn up at my door I'll let them in and I'll tell them what my wares are used for.
