is the brother some sort of non-human entity he ran in to in the woods that night (after falling off the cliff as a child)? either he died and brother bought him back to life, or something along those lines. brother was enamored with him and formed a human identity, and using his supernatural powers, manipulated everyone in mc’s life into thinking that they’re actual brothers (which is kinda stupid, surely he could’ve manipulated mc into thinking they were a married couple, but maybe only people other than mc can be manipulated by his powers??)
i don’t think they’re actually related, but it seems silly to waste so much airtime on the wrongness of their pseudo incestual relationship, when he could’ve popped up as a classmate or even posed as mc’s lover, as opposed to a brother that mc is just going to feel horrible about becoming intimate with. but i also kind of feel like the author wanted to explore a super taboo & twisted relationship, so here we are lol.
