Ah, well, my immediate family is really just myself, my mother, and dear Tara these days. She is as much family as anyone - I summoned her when I was eight, you know. My parents had denied me a kitten, and I decided that simply wouldn't do, so I summoned and bonded a familiar. Hah! She was perhaps a bit surprised, but we've got on quite well since then. Then again, she and my mother also get on a bit too well at times.
