Purely Speculating And Maybe HCs - Tumblr Posts

One of the things I wish Royal talked a bit more about: I can't help but still wonder about Sumi's family life and how it might have influenced Kasumi's own behavior too. Just from what was described about how she took care of Sumire it seems like she was trying to parent her if that makes sense? Basically to the point where Sumire later perceived it as her being condescending which I don't blame her for really (This was me with my mom at one point). But yeah I do wonder sometimes and wished that the game talked a bit more about it. Like maybe the parents are loving but aren't around all the time due to jobs so Kasumi decided to take up the caretaker role b/c she's the oldest twin and loves her sister so she doesn't want Sumire to feel neglected? I also remember reading a theory that their mother favored Kasumi more than Sumire due to a bit in the flashback that showed their father with a woman next to him in the background during one of the twins' meets and she was prominently wearing pink (Kasumi's signature color).

Idk, I know their father loves them for certain but I can't help but wonder more about their personal lives and how it ended up impacting/influencing both of their behaviors. Kasumi potentially wanting to make sure her sister didn't get neglected and felt loved/taken care of only to backfire badly would be interesting. It could add more context to some dialogue in the Tactica DLC story that implies that the two got into fights/arguments as they got older too.
