Fan Casting Big Little Sibling(Big Little Brother, Big Little Sister)

Role added by user_184964 on June 11, 2023

Make Suggestion

Description of Big Little Sibling (Big Little Brother, Big Little Sister):

When someone mentions their "little brother or sister", you usually expect a smaller individual. Common sense says the older sibling should be the taller one, because they had more time to grow. The Big Little Brother turns that common sense on its head. This may go along with the younger sibling appearing more mature, composed and responsible, or more generally acting and sounding older than the older sibling. This is usually a surprise to both the audience and the characters in a story, though one Played for Laughs. Expect the shorter older sibling to have Height Angst, especially if the younger sibling wasn't always taller.
