was it casual when:
- you couldnt live without your "best bro" because you saw him like a human tranquilizer to keep you sane
- insisting on giving him the best treatment even if he leaves you by shower him with gifts: a marquess title or so many money that he can live without worrying
- went straight (well, not that straight now) to treat him as a partner to raise their adopted daughter together. do you know how hard it is to entrust your child to someone's hands??
- give him access to that one secluded place that hid the treasures and mementos that only your own bloodline can access it
- fully give inheritance to him if you ever die
- let him beat you and cuss you out and you'd still like it
- flirts everyday by calling him terms of endearment
