yes, that, whatever, it's obv circumstantial or something like that, act according to what's going on

sometimes family is about choosing. idk that's what it feels like

( which is weird because the intense feeling he has of needing to choose family is at odds with the fact he has a little brother and absentee parents off touring as they always do? which makes... weird... sense... no. what? )

the one you're born into isnt always the one you want or get to keep
then there's the one you make and the one you earn
and its all family, friends are family, aren't they

[ Huh. Family...

There's something odd about it; thinking about it, questioning about it. What's family to him? He knows his family life is alright, but he can't get rid of this uncomfortable feeling in his gut - a sort of acceptance, and yet...

the one you're born into isnt always the one you...get to keep ]

never thought about it
huh
i guess theyre family? they can be but idk i dont think of friends as family
isnt the relationship different
it can be the same but i dont think of my old man or mom then think of my friends the same way
but theyre still special
and i know theres people out there who mean as much as them
i dont have a word to call them though

( it's unsettling, because he does feel strongly on this. why? family feels like it has layered meanings, and... sure, there are, there are elders and lateral branches and, and... )

i dont know that's still family to me
your chosen family the people you watch out for and who watch out for you
they're friends, too, but kind of
