This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It’s ingrained to avoid attraction to siblings we grow up alongside, though anecdotally there have been many cases of siblings who grew up apart discovering they were siblings after meeting as strangers and feeling mutual attraction, so the biological instinct may just have evolved around the most common case.
