WHAT: Local judge seeks the advice of an impartial forum (Asking for a friend. Who is definitely not him). Please be gentle.
WARNINGS: Some swearing


I have been made aware that this forum format, Am I The ***hole, enables casual conversation efficiently.

I am writing this on behalf of someone I know (who is not related to myself) in the hopes of receiving varied opinions.

Forgive the vulgarity, but the judgements may be any of the following:

• YTA - You're The ***hole


• NTA - Not The ***hole


• NAH - No ***holes Here


• ESH - Everyone Sucks Here


• INFO - More Information Needed

AITA for disagreeing with my former brother-in-law?

Edit: It were truly minor disagreements. Maximilian and I have fought before with injury on a magnitude far greater than the conflict I have had with his party during the intervention, and yet I hold no ill will towards him for that encounter.

I (M1500) have a brother Auguste (M3000) who was married to Maximilien (M3500). They separated amicably when I was out of the country, and as I understand, remained good friends.

Maximilien and my family have some history together. By various circumstance, he, along with other acquaintances, have come into possession of some important family heirlooms, the loss of which has caused us great distress. Auguste seems to have looked past this. I have not.

I have recently returned, and have learnt that Auguste had run into some trouble, and Maximilien had planned a sort of 'intervention' to help him. I was of the opinion that Maximilien no longer has any right to interfere with our personal affairs, and I did not trust the people involved in the intervention, either.

I admit, I may have been in the wrong here, because I was not around when Auguste fell into misfortune, and therefore I was not privy to the exact nature of his circumstance. Maximilien also truly cares about Auguste, but I cannot forget the loss of our heirlooms.

During the intervention, I had some minor disagreements with Maximilien and his party. It all worked out in the end, and Auguste has been saved. I am unfortunately still deemed to be in error, but I was merely concerned about my brother. AITA?

[it was still the same, without fail; every time he looked at her, he could see, just for the briefest of moments -

hydro dragon, hydro dragon, don’t cry-]

That is his problem to deal with. I am not ashamed of what had transpired. [he leans back into the couch and pats the space next to him, hoping that she would sit, because the longer he looked into her face the more he wanted to place her under house arrest.]

[ she sees it, the flash of something across his expression, that haunted look she spent five hundred years trying to keep from her own face. questions form on the tip of her tongue, wrapping around her throat. what is he seeing when he looks at her? are they still hiding things from each other? are they still holding themselves at arm's length?

is this dance going to be never ending?

she looks to the space he made for her, then to neuvillette himself, before sighing. ] Of course you aren't. [ she sits down in almost a huff, body turned in such a way that she can still look at him. ] But you could have done with being a little more subtle!

[godmaker]

[he knows he has to talk to her. has to talk about it, but neuvillette was part of the play she had performed tirelessly, and- he was, in all honesty, afraid.

so he must content himself with this: so as he had done in his memories, he would make sure she had all the comforts of home, to make up for his failure of being one.]

It is interesting, to hear you advocate for subtlety.

[wait that came out wrong maybe. he inhales. he’s so bad at this.] I meant that in a good way.

[majeste]

[ she had run from the palais, from him, after everything that happened. she had believed it was for the best and shut herself away, buried in the guilt of the lives she could not save. it wasn't, clorinde showed her as much, as did the traveller, and she sees it now looking at neuvillette beside her. she never should have run.

it is with a noticeably dramatic gasp that furina strikes out at him, a pointedly gentle blow, with her fist. the nerve!! ]

I, of all people, know when to be subtle and when to not! [ she's not angry, not even annoyed, she's playing it up. ] What is interesting is that you seem to be avoiding it!
