Alden and Conrad story felt very nostalgic and sweet to me. That might be because my brother is nurodivergent and sometimes I heard his voice coming out of Alden’s mouth, or it might be because once they got over there bickering Alden and Conrad were so unbelievably sweet to each other. They each have their own impossible situations that put them directly at odds with each other beyond their initial bickering. I really enjoyed seeing them both grow and watching their priorities shift.
