Okay, look I might not be the most social butterfly at school. I know I'm not the most academically gifted. My interests lie elsewhere and my brother knows that. My brother is also my teacher for the first time ever in a city that is not exactly big enough for people to easily forget things. In fact, it kinda sounds like everyone has the exact opposite problem.

So, why oh why, did he feel a need to just torpedo any kind of anonymity I may have been enjoying and lack of spotlight to go and blurt out my FAMILY nickname in class? Does he want me to just die from embarrassment? Did he need to give me more reason to not want to go to school?

I love my brother, but honestly - we needed to be at seperate schools for a reason. Or at least never the same class. It's called maintaining order!

Speaking from experience, older brothers tend to be too busy trying to prove their affection to think rationally about the recipient's feelings.

having family as your teacher should be illegal cause its like favoritism... whats his embarrassing family nickname? ill call him that from now on instead of mr nelson

[scarlet_devil]

Well, that is simply a thing siblings do. At least you didn't get pelted by water balloons.

[maidofmistakes]

At least it wasn't horrible family stories...

[rebellions]

boo fucking hoo
don't you people have bigger problems in your life than crying over a nickname of all the things

[bozhemoi]

I'm not crying over it, and yeah, there's bigger problems like finding myself on the crazy app but sometimes you just gotta get stuff off your chest.

[bozhemoi]

Yet. I mean, this could just be the beginning.

Have you had family teach you?

[bozhemoi]

My brother has a little more sense than that. Sometimes.

[bozhemoi]

right? but not favouritism. just awkward. well, his isn't even embarrassing he just uses it every day - foggy. his real name is franklin though and i think that's worse.

[bozhemoi]

Well, you're not wrong. I know he cares. But c'mon! In class!!

[buncho]

lmao franklin ok i think i can do that

[maidofmistakes]

Nope, never. Does it happen a lot?

[bozhemoi]

Not really, it's the first time since my brother became a teacher. But then New York had more schools.

[bozhemoi]

i owe you.

[buncho]

enough to do my english hw? just one assignment?

[bozhemoi]

so long as you're not expecting a top grade. i hate doing my own homework let alone someone else's.

[maidofmistakes]

Yeah, I guess so. In elementary school, teachers' kids always ended up in someone else's class, but I think it's different in high school. I hope it doesn't get worse?

[buncho]

im asking you to do my hw, ive never got a top grade ever. as long as its a passing grade then id be super happy!!

[bozhemoi]

Maybe it's different for parents and not siblings? Or this is all just part of the torture of this place. Foggy's a great brother and a great teacher... just not together.

[bozhemoi]

passing grade i can do. i've mastered that. i just haven't mastered top grades either. unless it's art class.

[buncho]

then ill take that! art im no good at either so thats why im not taking it. its gotta be home ec, you know? its food!!

[bozhemoi]

food is the best! nothing wrong with home ec.

[maidofmistakes]

Maybe. I dunno, if I had a teacher parent, I'd be terrified.

[buncho]

yes!!!!!! but youre taking art instead or are you in home ec too?

[scarlet_devil]

Ah, family. I suppose we must take the good with the annoying.
