Family and plans…

As I strode in with confidence unexpected for a 4-year-old, I notice the seating arrangement, pops at the head of the table with Jennet and Richard on the right side with jade and Kyle next to them with a chair separating them in between, almost as if to leave the left side for the defendant there was only one chair place at that side directly in the middle, which I found quite funny.

My brothers seemed quite upset at my sudden appearance and give me a childish death glare, oh it seems someone set Richards nose straight, that's good, and Kyle seem to be sitting on an O-ringed cushion, well I could probably guess why but I'll ask anyways

Gideon" Kyle why are you sitting on a cushion shaped like that?"

With a face red in anger and a voice a lot higher pitch than I remember he refuted with just a hint of spittle hitting the table.

Kyle " because of you!!, I can't sit on anything hard or it hurts my... It just hurts!"

Gideon " fair enough, so let's get the show on the road"

As I walk to the defendant's seat in the middle of the table, I suddenly walk behind it and slowly drag it across the floor making as much noise and taking as long as possible as I look Jennet straight in the eye, which seems to unnerve her a little…..

After what felt like forever, I move the seat next to my father and hop up onto the seat…. Literally hop, still 4, god I can't wait to grow a little

Want to try this subtle power play bullshit with me? Well, I don't plan on coming out of this clean but I very much plan on dragging you pricks through the dirt… and in hindsight, while sitting here. whats happened so far could really make my future way harder or worse, cut it short with one of these pricks just straight up assassinating me....but I've come this far so, might as well go all in

Victor " Janet and jade have informed me you attacked your brothers for no good reason, I would very much like to hear an explanation, Gideon….."

As I look at Jennet, she gives me the look she always used to give me, the 'if you speak the truth I'll make you pay you filthy mother killing peasant' look...those are the words that more or less broke the old Gideon, guilt, and fear... those were powerful tools to use on a child, but she seems to believe I'm gonna keep playing her game as she gives me a smug grin.

This bitch gon learn today...

Gideon" well father the truth is, for years those uppity little pickle smooches have been torturing me with relentless and downright psychotic physical and mental abuse, while their mothers watched and even encouraged their behavior and threatened me if I ever told you I'd be the one in trouble.....but it turns out everyone has a breaking point and being held down and electrocuted and bitten by those two little pricks Pokémon unable to fight back seemed to be my breaking point and I found that I just didn't give a flying fuck anymore….."

I said all that with a bright smile on my face while the demon queens seem to be silently bursting in anger while dumb and dumber were looking at their mothers looking for some sort of retort.

It was then absolute silence fell upon the room and everyone looks at my father who had a blank expression on his face, no idea what that means…

He suddenly spoke in a quiet yet somehow very firm voice which projects authority. While looking at Jennet and jade

Victor " ...…is this true?...…"

Jennet seemed to answer with some confidence….. no idea where it comes from though.

Jennet " no Victor, I have no idea what he is talking about, we are his family and have always treated him as such"

And with fake sincerity, she looks at me.

Jennet " I don't know why you are making up these lies or why you suddenly attacked my son, but you need to tell Victor the truth and then apologize to Richard and Kyle"

Just as I was about to answer there was a knock on the door *knock knock* and a maids' voice comes through.

Maid " my lord, the young lords tauros steak has been prepared"

Before anyone could say anything I shout "bring it in"

The maid walks in and feels the atmosphere of the room quickly places my food in front of me with a knife and fork and leaves as quickly as she came.

With everyone looking at me I just ignore the stares, pick up my knife and fork and start eating... it's pretty good, only some salt but still good, but I feel my inner foodwarz knowledge set off like Gordon Ramsy, telling me it's shit and how I could turn it into a steak for the gods…

With a mouth full of steak I reply to the rat-faced manipulator.

Gideon" it's honestly impressive how you can just look me in the eye and talk the way you are, but whatever you say, today is the day your little bullshit mind games with me are done *chew chew chew* you see, I don't know what your problem with me actually is but I think I could narrow it down to 3 things"

I continue chewing, it's not tough but I'm still struggling a little with it

She looks at me with some anger, seeing my seemingly nonchalant approach to being called a liar and straight out calling her out.

Gideon " first is that it has something to do with my dead mother….. if I had to take a shot in the dark…. I'd say father loved her more than you"

Ooooo, that didn't sit well with her…..

Gideon " second….. you feel threatened that I would become the successor once pops found out your little crotch goblin was just a cruel little idiot who couldn't think his way out of a wet paper bag without you telling him how"

Wow, again… not sitting well with her…..

Gideon " and last but certainly not least is you seem to resent the fact that your son is brothers with a commoner"

And there's the straw that broke the camel's back…. Nummels back? Camrupts back?, doesn't matter…. A back was broken by a straw as she explodes in fury.

Jennet " you filthy little commoner!!! You would dare to speak to a noble in such a way proves you are just like your disgusting lowgrade whore of a mother who should never have been brought into our home and tainted it with her commoner filth, and that disgusting sow even had the audacity to give birth to such a little demon!!…..it only taints this family even more!!!!"

Ooof, she kinda just exploded there. Well, that makes it easier on me I guess, I was only planning to cause pops some doubts but this kinda seals the deal on her personality being known to the old man.

Pops seemed to look at her with a bit of disappointment which suddenly erupted into cool anger...

Victor " Jennet, today you have truly disappointed me….. it seems we will need to speak on this later in private…."

Jennet looked horrified at what just came out of her mouth while I could see jade thinking of how to throw her under the bus for this, which I found quite amusing before I turn to father

Gideon " listen pops I'm not trying to break up the family or anything so I'd like to request some funds for me to build a house by the sea and live there for a while, eventually, I'd ask for a bit of land, my plan is to just settle away from all this….but not too far away…..But I won't stay on these grounds any longer, I'm sorry.....I know I'm young but ill be fine.."

The old man looks at me with some regret...

Victor " of course Gideon, I'm so sorry, I don't know how I could have let this happen to my own son, but being only a child I will have to assign you a few personal attendants and a couple of personal guards"

Gideon " of course... I hope that you find it in your heart to forgive them one day, even after they have lied to you about inflicting grievous bodily harm upon your own son for years while stealing gold from the coffers to indulge in their extramarital activities"

I don't know if they steal or cheat but now is the time to throw some shade their way and see how it goes…

My father turns with a face as stern as his gigantic handlebar mustache allows to Jennet and jade who both look horrified for some reason, maybe there was some truth to it.

Jennet " he is actually lying this time! I didn't do any of those other things!!"

Jade " Victor my love you have to believe me! He's lying!"

Well, that worked way better than it probably should have…

Victor " it seems that this discussion will be a little longer than I expected….."

Gideon" well I'm going to head back to my little shack, do you mind me going to see the builders tomorrow pops?"

Victor " yes, of course, you tell me whatever you need I'll see that you have it"

He said with a kind smile, but I can see the pain in his eyes, well not much else to do here but flip these fuckers the bird, mossie on out to the pond to feed my fish, check on the eggs I left in my little abode and start working on some blueprints for my new pad….
