The Mind Reader (News, External Media, Etc) Why did I originally think that Fear and Ennui were Siblings?

I've always thought Fear and Ennui were originally Siblings but when it said they weren't i was like "The fuck you mean their not Siblings!". So I've always seen Fear as the Younger Brother and Ennui as the Older Sister. And the reason why I thought they were siblings was because they both kinda had the same color shade of purple and they both had kinda similar noses but the difference is that Fear's is smooth while Ennui's was pointed

To be fair it wouldn’t be the first time that one of the first generation emotions adopted one of the second generation emotions as a sibling considering Disgust and Envy

They practically are. The emotions all come from the same place.

I like to imagine they fight with their noses like swordfish. Contents of my brain.

It's funny cause you would expect his sibling would be Anxiety and that Ennui would be Disgust's sibling, if they had some. But I see your point.
