          Blaine paid with his credit card at the pump and than sat in his car waiting for the kids to come back, because to him any time away from them was blessed. And then when the cops got there, he stayed out of it until he was sure no trouble would redound to him.

        The convenience store was pretty much empty apart from Amber and Ethan from what we have seen. But the cops arrived pretty much the MOMENT she decided to act. Like, she kicked over a display sign then bam, the cops were there.

    Fun, slightly-relevant fact–one time my brother (then 6) punched a black belt (then 11) in the stomach in my defense. The guy was my classmate, one of those “bullies you horrendously because he Likes you” kind of jerks. (Still got a tiny scar on my finger from that kid, actually.)

    The black belt almost cried. My brother faced exactly no consequences somehow, and I still tell this story at parties. Jk, I don’t go to parties–but I do still tell the story in comment sections.

    I was thinking Sal had likely connected the dots, but I guess we’re seeing this wasn’t out of left field, but not something she knew for a fact yet. Interesting.

    Also, while it’s not for the best reasons that it’s been brought to the forefront, it’s been nice seeing Walky and Sal care about each other a lot this storyline.

      I think that’s a disturbing thing to say about a 13 year old. Sal doesn’t look like the kind of person who’d threaten to slit another kids throat but it happened.

        Walky punched Asher because Walky has poor impulse control and Asher rubbed Walky the wrong way. If Walky cared that much about Sal, he would have, I dunno, called her or emailed her or texted her while she was away for 5 years?

        Walky is a pretty easygoing guy, and so far his impulse control issues have mostly resulted in him eating too much junk food, and doing other things when he should be studying. But when faced with other situations where impulse control matters…well, he’s Walky.

          I’m not saying he cared (or at least, cared in the same way) during the five years, but he has been realizing how different his life has been from Sal’s, and how much he hasn’t been showing up for her, and that is literally what he got mad about on the page.

          He didn’t care during those five years, but he has realised since then that he does care about his sister and lost 5 whole years with her because of Asher. And he regrets the fact he didn’t care before.

    I really love the Walkerton kids’ family dynamic. There’s so much love and mutual protection here! They really WANT to look out for eachother!

    Okay, Sal, first apologize to Amber, then tell the tale of how you’d figured out Asher’s role before today.

          To be perfectly fair, I think he WAS a piece of shit at age 13. He might be perfectly correct that he has left his shitty ways behind. We will probably find out, eventually.

    Do any two siblings call each other “bro”/”sis” more than the Walkertons?

      Well do you expect Sal to call him “Walky”?

      “Well, you wouldn’t expect a sister to call her brother ‘father’…” – Father Mulcahy, after Hawkeye reads him a letter his sister (a nun) wrote him in which she addressed him by his given name, “Francis”.

      I used to call my sister “sis”. Because I thought we needed more running gags and catchphrases in our lives and “Stop calling me that” seemed like a good one.

      I call both my siblings nicknames and they both do the same for me. I think it depends very much on your actual manner of speaking in the same way that different people call their mother, well, Mother, Mum/Mom, Mummy/Mommy, Mama, Ma etc. but don’t use all variations. Some will find saying ‘sis/bro’ natural, and others won’t.

    I have a twin brother. I say things like bro, bro-bro, bray-bray, brie-brie, Broseph of Arimathea, Keeper of the Most Broly Grail. At that point, it mostly is just a game to waste his time before actually making whatever point the conversation had. Don’t really do that with my sis. Her name is Sarah, so I occasionally call her Sar-Sar.

    Finally found work again, yesterday. My brother hooked me up where he works, which was totally cool of him. Really wasn’t expecting the first interview, paperwork, and e-learning to all be on the same day, talk about hired on the spot. My first shift is 11-5 today, too, so that’s extra helpful. I was literally four days away from running out of phone service entirely.

They are mocked by gen Z for everything from their trainer socks to their mom jeans and selfie technique. A maligned millennial asks: how did we get here?
