He is some relative of the mother, so they met once when they were younger. But nothing more, there is no "direct" incest like uncle or cousin or anything near that ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
oh tysm! i was worried for a second
"relative of the mother" wouldn't that *have* to make him an uncle or cousin? Unless it's even more distant than that? Unless he's more of a close-family friend?
When he talks about the mother, he never calls her niece or cousin or anything and they don't know anything about their lives. So I think it's really not family in blood. It's not stated very clear but I wouldn't count it as incest
wait are they...related? i put it in my want to read list and saw the incest tag (⊙…⊙ )
