It’s tough to be without your siblings, especially if you’re used to living with them, or having them nearby. I have an older sister and brother, and when I first left home, it was definitely a change to not have them around. But you get used to it, bit by bit. Not to mention… delivery! A nice added bonus when the sun is too bright and you don’t want to wander around town trying to find something to eat. Order in a pizza or Chinese or anything at all. It’s good to meet you, Emerson, I’m Gerard, welcome to town.

I’m living with my girlfriend now, so at least I’m not completely left to my own devices. But you’re right, it’s completely different than being near family. Sometimes, it just feels like I need to do things on my own and that’s not something I’m used to quite yet. Curse of being the baby in the family, I guess. I think delivery is going to be my best friend for a while, to be honest. Do you have any recommendations for places around town that you like?

emerson, you know what you should do man? just raid the nearest house. i mean, they’ll probably be friendly, who would want to keep a man away from the food of his dreams? they are your brothers now, this whole town… unless you live close to me because my fridge? sadly just has some leftover takeaway food that is going bad. i’m not the best cook. welcome to town, i’m matt, and i always, always give bad advice.

Matt, are you sure that you’re not Remington in disguise? Because that sounds exactly like something he would say. Down to the rotting leftovers. Which is why I always raid the other brother’s fridge. I think I might skip out on raiding a stranger’s kitchen, but maybe I’ll make an effort to make friends so I can actually bribe people to feed me next time this happens. Because trust me, this will happen again.

Changing life up from being surrounded by your brothers isn’t easy. Pretty much lived with my whole life, well I mean including touring and thereafter until our original split. Adjustments like moving out and being a bit more independent take time! The good news was the grocery store also delivers if you don’t want to risk the sunlight again or general running around Bayview. Can be a bit confusing at first but once you have it down, it’s not too bad. Plus there’s loads of places to order for takeout that will bring you food if you’re starving now. Paco’s is a great one if you like Mexican. It’s so much easier when you can raid your brother’s fridge, used to do that to Kevin all the time, he was much more put together. Anyway, welcome to town, I’m not sure if we’ve met before but I’m Joe. 

I feel like we may have met once when I was really young, actually. I can’t remember. There was a small period of time, before we decided we wanted to do rock, that Disney was trying to make me and my brothers follow in your footsteps. Which, that feels so weird to say now with how far removed from that life we’ve gotten. And it barely counts, so please just disregard all of that. I do actually really like Mexican food, I might take that suggestion thank you for that. It’s not Sebastian’s fridge, but I’ll take solace in knowing that it comes with a good recommendation at least.

Is this your first time living away from your brothers? If so, I know the feeling of living in a city away from home, where you don’t know many people. But don’t worry, Bayview’s a friendly town, I’m sure you’ll find your footing quite fast. Did you get some food eventually? I’m Ben, by the way. It’s good to meet you!

Well, yes, but no? Before moving here, the three of us lived in the same city, but not in the same house. My closest brother was on the same street though, and the oldest was only a few minutes drive away. I didn’t get food yet, but I’m going to place an order for something, I think. It seems easier than trying to go outside again and getting confused. It’s nice to meet you too, Ben! I’m definitely seeing that the town seems pretty friendly at least. That does make it nicer than getting lost in, say, LA for example.

I don’t like to complain, but I don’t think I was ever truly prepared to live anywhere without my brothers. I went outside earlier with every intention of finding the store so I could get food. I couldn’t find the store, there was sunlight, it was all bad. Now I’m thinking about going back to bed, but my stomach is still growling and we haven’t got groceries since we moved in. Life was easier when I could just go to my brother’s house and raid his refrigerator all hours of the day and night. I’m Emerson, by the way. I should have started there, shouldn’t I?  @townofbayview​
